Market apps from alternative source? - Android Apps and Games

Hi I was wondering if anyone knew a trusted alternative source of market apps where I could just download the apks of apps (only free ones of course). The reason I'm asking is because I flash a lot of custom roms, as well as using lcd density so I have a lot of trouble getting market and alternative market apps like app brain to work on my phone. Thanks in advance!

try getjar?

Thanks but I've heard people have had problems with that.. I was hoping more for a website where I could directly download apks that are exactly the same as the ones on the market (signed non paid apps only, just to clarify). I know there are a lot of sites with apks but I can't tell which ones can be trusted.

There is a LCD Density Modder pro app here and on market which modifies market apk to solve this issue. Although it's $2.99.

Worked brilliantly, many thanks - not that impressed with Nook though, oh well
Question though, now I've got market enabler installed what other cool apps are available to me now that aren't in the UK market?
Many thanks

[Q] Out of the box Legend 2.1 Dont have Android Market!!!

Hey peeps,
I just came in here! I just had HTC Legend 2 days ago, I really like the phone.
But I first would like to know WHEN and HOW can I get the 2.2 update, because that is what I really bought the phone for?
Second thing, I dont have any icons called Market in the menu?! why is that?
and how possible I could get it? I head its one of best things about Android just like the App Store for iPhone (I'm an ex iPhone user )
Any help would be REALLY appreciated!
Thanks

Sure about that?
Just try a search (with the lens button) for "Market"; if there's the app, it should come out right a way.

Hello anyone?
Google is your friend.
I searched market.apk and got a link to this site, a post read the market apk is called Vending.apk so i googled that and this is it:
http://www.4shared.com/file/NO2X6eBk/Vending.html
Try it.

I have tried this before, mate.
Seems like you cant get any app or some customization as you wish that Google "my friend" wont like, unless you root the phone, and give them the middle finger with all respect and big smile! lol

'This app is not compatible with your device' problem

HI guys, I have 'This app is not compatible with your device' message on 80% of apps on Market.... I didn't use my tablet for 3 month... it was properly working before
Now market looks different and i cannot download most of the apps.
I've tried to clean Market data, but it hangs, and when I reboot i works but issue still there.
I use Vanilla AOSP
What will be recommended action? Thank you
Give this procedure a try.
Thanks!

Thank you but suggested solution didn't work,
What worker is to update to 1.2, then I flashed GTabCombOver 3.4.2, now market works!
Good to see you sorted your problem. I get this error with the game loft data down loaders, the market let's me install them but the game downloaded gives the the incompatibility BS.
I solved this problem by getting a build.prop editor from the marketplace (should be available to most devices) and copied the settings from my HTC Glacier (MyTouch 4g). I can now download everything my MyTouch can. Some apps have minor problems, but most everything works fine. The only thing I can't d/l is the nvidia games, but I would submit that copying the build.prop settings from a phone that has the nvidia tegra would fix that problem.
I'm running the DRH ICS BETA and it has a built in build.prop editor with various selections to try but none have been successful for me, I even tried using the build.prop from my galaxy nexus but it wouldn't even boot.
change your screen dpi to 160 in the build.prop
Which settings do I change? I have the same problem. Apps that work on my Razr, don't work on here. Both are newspaper/magazine subscriptions.
Also, could the same thing be done to fool the Amazon market to think this is one of their tablets?

That doesn't really make sense. Amazon sold a ton of g-Tablets both via Woot! and Amazon itself. The g-Tablet is well-supported on the Amazon app market.

I meant specifically Kindle Fire Apps. This applies to a couple of news subscriptions that are available for I Pad, Kindle fire, but not generic Android tablets.

I found an answer to this problem. I downloaded what I needed on my Razr, did a complete backup with Titanium pro, copied the appropriate app onto SD card, put into G Tablet and install using Titanium pro. Worked great, that way the Market doesn't have to know what device I am installing this onto. The only problem was a notice that the resolution might be off. however, this was no problem.

I am using Cyanogenmod 7.2.0 (stable mod) and haven't found anything in the play store that I can't install. The only problem is using an older version of Google maps is necessary if you want to use maps. CM7 is fast and sips the battery.

Amazon App Store (unable to log in)

I've installed the Amazon App Store app, and it will not accept my email and password. I know that they're correct, but the app continues to say invalid.
Does anyone have this app working properly?
I have had no problems signing in multiple times (after changing ROMs). Uninstall the app and reinstall or, goto Amazon's site and get a text sent with a link to download the app (again) and try installing that one.

Go to the Amazon website and delete all previous devices. As mentioned above you probably signed into it on too many devices.

Thanks,
This was the issue. There were over 30 devices. I guess I change Roms and phones A LOT!
I don't know why amazon does that, its incredibly annoying

Same here. Thought it was ICS too. Been looking for an answer to this issue for my GT-N7000 and looked all over the forums there but could find any help. Had way too many devices registered. So i deregistered them, dowloaded the app and installed it again. Had no problems signing in after that.

Anyone know how to get Craigsnotifica

Anyone know how to get Craigsnotifica ? It was the best craigslist notification app on the market and it's gone. I just wiped my phone and flashed a new rom and on purpose didn't do a backup (wanted to start from scratch) but didn't expect this app to just not be on the market anymore.
Any ideas?

yea i was hoping asking around on the boards would be a little safer than just downloading from a google search haha. i'll take a look around though, but if anyone happens to know of a specific good link, please let me know.

I also could really use a copy of this, as I'm in the same boat.
Once I receive it, I will share it across 2 Dropbox Accounts, Google Drive, and a Minus account.
That's four mirrors for the price of NONE!
A PM or a reply, either or.
Thanks in advance.
I discovered a funny little trick, which is the reason I've been able to keep the app: I use the market app Appbak to create a text-file backup of all my installed apps. When I go to reinstall my apps, the app uses that list to go to each app in the market, and if Craigsnotifica is on the list, it WILL show up in the market!
Of course we should all keep a copy of the apk on our sdcards/computer.
Here is the apk: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18474790/com.mufumbo.craigslist.notification.android-1.apk
has anyone noticed that in the past week the app stops displaying the content of posts? it shows the title and the footer, but the main content is missing. I sure wish someone could pickup the dev of this app, as it is, as somoene else posted, the best CL app out there.
thanks.

Same is happening to mine. When you go to "About" page, the external website link is for a gaming website.
I uninstalled it for now.

Does anyone have an alternative to Craigsnotifica? The other applications I've tried don't have the RSS style and multiple item tracking that I have learned to love...
is anyone else having trouble getting the body of the Craigslist ad to appear on their device? This just started happening to me recently with this app.

Yeah, i noticed that too. Not sure why, maybe something changed on CL and the app hasn't been updated in so long.
I don't know if any of you will like this one, but i've been using cPRO craigslist client droid from the market. it does notifications, but they seem to use a lot of battery. But It works pretty well for me searching and browsing.

An older version 2.84 does still show the body of the ad.
You can download it here:

Thanks alot. I love this app...been using it for couple of years now. The latest version doesnt show the body of ad. I wish it worked though!
Its hard to understand why the developer took this app off the market...did he stop developing it?
If so, someone should carry on the button!!!

I changed the settings and got it to show the body/text along with the pictures etc to show on each ad. Prior to that I would have to click on the peace/craigslist symbol to see the whole add and not just the pics and location.
Once I opened the app and got into the menu I seleced Preferences/Storage/Cache Ads Data (checked the box) and all new post and searches now work like it used too showing the text etc and are also available off line to review later. I am using version 3.28
I am still using it on my G2x until it just flat out does not work anymore. All the other apps I've found just don't compare and all seem like carbon copies of each other.
Now I just need to figure out how to remove the ads since I can't purchase the full app.
Very sad. I tried this and the results came up empty for everything. Every other Craigslist app is crap in comparison to this apps simplicity.
Anyone try this other app in the market yet? It seems really simple, yet has all the features like notifications and posting even. I haven't put it thru it's paces yet tho...
Search for claspics in the market..
