An Application was removed from the Market Place. How do I go about downloading it?

Hello!
I received my Asus EEE Pad Transformer on the 27th of April. This is my first Android Device, and my first tablet and I'm loving it.
Now I've downloaded all the Emulators by Yongzh (Snesoid, Gameboid..etc) but I noticed the Sega Genesis Emulator (Gensoid) is missing! Apparently it was removed at the request of Sega.
Is there any possible way to install Gensoid out of the Marketplace? If yes, how would I go about doing that?
Thank You.

If you get a copy of the APK, you could simply download that to your Transformer and install that. It might also be found on one of the other markets, such as Amazon's.

Thank you for the response! I have said .apk file now.
Which app would be better to install onto my transformer device?
AndroZip File Manager https://market.android.com/details?id=com.agilesoftresource&feature=search_result
or
appInstaller https://market.android.com/details?id=com.IQBS.android.appInstaller&feature=search_result
Do you have any personal experience with these apps?

The transformer comes with a built in file manager. Put it in a folder, the find it with the file manager.

[Q] Sideload apps?

I just got my transformer today with keyboard (its so cool!) and I have a colelction of apps from my old android handsets on my laptop. Is there a way of sideloading these apps onto the tablet without rooting?

just copy the apk files to the transformer and then run them from file explorer.

Ah awesome. Glad its that easy.

You have to check that box about loading apps from outside the market though, don't you?

Yes, you have to.

[Q]AsusReader.apk fails to install [Solved]

UPDATE: I was able to install the .apk by copying it to /system/app/ no fuss no muss. Once there it was ready to run without as much as a reboot required. Thanks to baseballfanz for the solution.
I am running gnufabio's Revolver 4.0.3 RC3 and downloaded the removed apps zip. I am trying to install the AsusReader.apk (MyLibrary), when I used my TF101 stock I liked this app for PDF viewing much better than Polaris Office.
When I try and install it says installation failed, do I need to flash this via recovery (a la gapps)?
(I would have posted this in the ROM thread, but I don't have a high enough post count to post in there yet.)

I've never run into this error otherwise, try flashing via cwm, I think that's what was intended being a 'system' app.

If there's a cwm flashable file try that, if not try manually moving it to system/app instead of installing it like a regular apk

Did you find a solution for this? I really liked the MyLibrary app, I have tried installing as a zip, manually putting in the zip folder etc. There seems to be a few of the Asus apps that won't install. Alternatively does anyone know of a good app that organises PDFs in a similar way to MyLibrary?

I haven't tried flashing via cwm yet, I need to get to my laptop so I can yank the stuff I don't want out of the zip.

[edit]I just thought about what baseballfanz said and decided to give that a try. I used Root Explorer and moved the apk to /system/app and it was in my app list, no reboot needed.[/edit]

I tried moving the apk into the app folder but it didnt work. Are you using the apk from the revolver main post?

Yes, extract the apk and use a file explorer with root access. I used Root Explorer, find the extracted apk and long press on it select copy or move. Then navigate to /system/app and then touch paste.

I tried the exact same thing about 10 times and eventually it worked by renaming the APK to MyLibrary.apk. Very odd!
It's definitely the best app for displaying groups of PDF in a library view that I've found
Thanks for your help

Glad you got it all sorted MrMuz.
I just went and double checked mine and it is still AsusReader.apk

AsusReader on Lenco TAB-9701
Hello MacFett,
I have tried to install the AsusReader.apk as both AsusReader.apk and MyLibrary.apk in the system/app folder, but it does not seem to work.
The icon shows up but when I tap it I get a message that the application has stopped (after 2-5 seconds). I'm using a Lenco TAB-9701 tablet.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? I really like this app (I've used it on other tablets) and would very much like to get it working.
Furthermore, does anyone have information on how to root the 9701?
Thanks in advance for your help.

It maybe that it is fc'ing because these Asus stock apps for the transformer.

Install Asus Keyboard on CM10

Hi guys, I wanted to ask you if someone can help me installing the Asus Keyboard app on my TF300T with CM10. I have the Keyboard.apk , but it gives an error when installing... Any help?

Did you have the odex files too? And you need to manual place into /system/app. Normall install will not work.

You will find the Asus Keyboard apk and odex file in the zip file
Just push it on /system/app

Ok, I'll try it later. Thanks!

It didn't work... Any ideas? :s

Describe? It didn't work.
After placing each file in /system/apps ( I always set permissions as well 644). Reboot. you went to settings/Language & Input, placed a check beside it/Clicked Default and selected it.
If you pushed it with adb permissions may be correct already.

It's the native keyboard from Asus with Odex file.
You have 2 solutions for push these files on your system, but you need root rights:
- 1st: by ADB
adb push XXX YYY : copy the file XXXX from your PC on to your system/app YYY of your phone
- 2nd: by an APK as Root explorer, Es File Explorer etc (with root rights)
just copy and paste thes 2 files to your SDcard and copy and paste again to the system/app folder.
After don't forget to reboot your device.
And finally you went to settings/Language and Input, placed a check beside it/Clicked Default and selected it.

I did the 2nd method right from the beginning - I even set permissions for the files. The problem is that the settings thing stops responding when I try to open it with the files inside system/apps ...

Just reboot when your copy/paste is done

No good... I did everything, copied the files to system/app with root explorer, rebooted, and the keyboard isn't even listed on the settings page...

OK I'll try to duplicate your issue and report back. Which cm10 rom are you using?
I chose cm10 nightlies and I can't get a proper install either, I'm looking into why.

I'm using the 09-11 nightly.

Thanks I am working on it.
I deodexed and that failed to show installed.
Made a flash zip and that failed to show installed.
Now I'm really curious.
I need to flash stock rom and play a little then come back to cm10.
I'll report when I have more info.
I can't make it work no matter what I try, I'm sorry. If I think of anything else I'll reply here.

Maybe they are some missing librares they are in /system/lib/ ? Check the logcat, it should what is missing.

Thanks I'm looking into that now. I'll reflash stock and try to get a better idea what might be missing. I see where it fails and why but haven't been able to relate that to a lib or config yet.
Thanks for the help!
When I do something like this I don't always get it fixed but I certainly learn new things as I go.
I'm not making any progress on this problem, sorry but I'm finished unless something else turns up soon.
Maybe someone else can lend a hand.

I will flash CM next days, as I already unlocked bootloader. Myabe I can find out what is missing, but try to add all the apks from this screen, it from stock.

[Q]

accidentally deleted system UI. on rooted tranformer tf700 4.2.1 I'm missing the status bars and home key etc... I assume I need to re-install the apk. Can someone post or send it to me... I would greatly appreciate it. I have a keyboard so I have limited functions... probably enough to get it installed.
thx!

OK in the attached zip you need to extract it to your sd and then copy the 2 files SystemUI.apk and SystemUI.odex into the /system/app folder and then set the permissions as 644 or rw-r--r--
Good luck!

I tried moving files into the folder above using ES explorer and it say permission denied.... What am I doing wrong?
Thanks again!

You need to make sure you give esfile explorer root permissions. First turn on root explorer in tools on the left and then hit the word root explorer and set everything to RW - it'll work then.

I was able to get the files moved with ROM toolbox and get the permissions set but it will still not install? Any ideas?

You will need t reboot if you haven't already....
Other option is download the full rom from the ASUS website, unzip to the root of your internal sd and let that flash from stock recovery. You'll lose everything but it will get you back up.
