[Q] Android apps - General Questions and Answers

I was wondering where I can publish my android app for free besides the android market. Although I want to publish my app to the android market, my parents will never let me give out my ssn ever especially online. So where are some popular places that will get some traffic to my app where I can upload it for free.
Or if someone would be so kind to pm me and publish my app to the market for me that would be great.
Thanks

can u refriase that? im confused about what you just said.
I wish I could get these free apps. Why's it limited to U.S?
They are working with the devs of the apps to advertise them for a short while to increase traffic. Once that time frame is up more ppl will know about the app and can then generate more revenue for the developers.

thats what i wanted to know
From what i heard they still give the dev 20% of the cost of the app for every free app. i.e. a $.99 goes free amazon gives dev $.20ish. so the dev's still get a little bit
Are the apps they give away decent or upgradable through the market?
So far I got doodle jump free , shazan encore(4.99) free, dinner dash free , .farm frenzy for free. Not bad. They free and this are good apps .

These apps require you to keep the Amazon app store installed on your device. If you remove Amazon app store the apps you downloaded will no longer work.
I do not know about paid apps but the free ones that are showcased daily will not work if you remove the Amazon app store.
Do you have to put a credit card number to even download a app????

yea you do or u can use amazon giftcard
you must first setup an amazon account using a credit card or paypal. when you install the amazon android store app, it syncs with your amazon account, so you don't store your credit card # or paypal info on your phone
In case anyone wants to keep track...
In case anyone wants to keep track, I put a copy of all the free apps here:

What would happen to the apps if you were to wipe with a ROM change?
Use Titanium backup and restore back.

Oh snap, I did not know that. Good thing I read this before I wiped my phone without any worry of losing anything. I'll have to do a Backup now. Thanks!
your apps are updateable, for free. lol. and since your account is set up with your amazon acct you can wipe and change roms a million times, as soon as you put the app store back on your phone and sign in with your account you can redownload your apps back again, still free.

[Q] Devil May Cry 4

Does anyone know if this game is a free game or a paid app? I realize its not released in the US but where it is available is it a game you have to buy?

my wife found the Devil May Cry 4 apk on her chinese market. She said it was not listed a charged item but a free app. I do have the apk but I want to make sure it isnt a paid app, I got an infraction for posting the thread with the Resident Evil 4 mobile apk... so hence my hesitancy in posting the apk for this game....
Ah right. Do you know any place where I can download a Chinese market legally?

There a ton of alternate android Chinese markets because the Google Android Market is blocked in China. So the chinese have made about 15+ of their own markets. Like:
Gfan
StarAndroid Market
There are more, problem she doesnt remember which market she found it on. I do have the apk but again I just dont know if its a free or paid app. I dont want to post it and get banned from XDA, that would suck. Also I have not been able to get into the game, it lists a 7 page thing you have to read but then thats it, nothing else. I will have my wife explain it to me as my reading of Chinese is not the best.
Is this the version you see here = http://www.xperiagamer.com/Game-News/devil-may-cry-for-xperia-play-pre-view.html
We found one on a 3rd party market but was sadly a guide or something. PS we expect it to be wares so would not post it. But if you would kindly PM me a link we could do a review for our site Thankyou very much in advance if can.

I am at work right now, but I will see about sending you a link later tonight (its 3pm right now for me but says its 11pm according to your post just 2 minutes ago)
I checked on google but didn't really find anythingn.
Sent from my R800i using XDA App
BTW if that is the correct version its a gold dust apk. We are not even sure its been released in japan where its due to be launched. Are team have never come across it.
Acording to google, it will be an Xperia Play optimized game.

K so I asked my wife to translate it and it is NOT the official game. It simply talks about the game and that it will be "coming soon" Dang. Sorry ya'll. My bad. At least now we know for sure.

To get paid apps for free with legal way

Hello everyone this is really legal and supports the developer not cracking apps and steeling developers effort.please dont misunderstand this.
firstly go your browser and type getjar.com and download its own app from here.
Open the app you install and from the app go to the "gold apps" cathegory and download what you want it is really free and legal
If like my post please hit the thanks button... )

There's no legal way for getting paid apps for free. The only legal way is to pay for it. Better remove the link buddy because it just leads to a warez site.

Yea exactly. There's no such thing. Warez are not allowed here unless the apk is made by an xda member and posts the paid version free exlcusively for xda members.
@OP You should remove your post lest you get infracted

It's legal, it's just another market. Most of the apps you can find there for free are free on the Android Market too.
They give some apps for free which normally you pay for, but I think it's a way to get more users and that they pay those apps for you or something like that.
It is really legal this site I mean getjar is dealing with the developers and share their apps for if you don't believe me just visit the site. I know payment is the best way but this the other way and I believe that it legal you can check the wheter they are cracked or not.
Thanks you all to warn me...

GetJar is a legal Market...... The only problem is that applications can not be updated and is not seen by the market's official Google!
Hey people you should go Getjar.com because
asphalt6:adrenaline is there for free and Also;
Smart office 2,
hungry shark 1,2,3
And much more games and apps are for free.
DON'T FORGET IT IS LEGAL.

If you have a rooted phone you can install lucky patcher dont install it from google play store install it from onhax i would have provided you the link if i had permission. Then install modded playstore (also from onhax) i would recommend you that you backup your real playstore with titanium backup before installing because it will replace your playstore. After that open lucky patcher and locate the option patch to android then you will get free apps dont think you will not need to pay on googleplaystore you will have to download free apks of paid apps this method only skips the verification off app payment. I have tried this thing myself its works pretty well
p.s hit thanks

And you copy pasted another one of my posts?
EDIT: and I just noticed you put all the stuff you copied (without giving credit) in your siggy. I put hours upon many hours into hunting down these links over time, then editing them all couple times to put in more info, then occasionally checking them all to make sure they're still valid. How long did it take for you to ctrl-c/ctrl-v them, 10 minutes tops?
Yeah, it's really starting to bug me.
