Searching in app store - General Questions and Answers

Is anyone else annoyed when they go to look through apps? Say you open an app page and look at it but want to go back to the recent list of searched apps, but then it goes to the app store home, and you have to type in the same search again to look at the others.
Where can we suggest things to google that they actually wilk see and respond to? If they want to be at the top of their game simple stuff like this should be fixed, its such a simple thing.

Google has groups that allow you to do this.... This link should be able to help you:

Not sure if we are allowed to post live links so you need to replace the "xx" with "tt" in the URL.

My another app.
Features:
-brightness indicator, overlaid on all other windows, it alway on top all other windows.
-percent indicator
-adjustable position, size, colors and other attributes
-autobrightness mode set by long click to indicator (more than 3-5 seconds).
This is not a widget! It is always enable in all app(games)!
PS. Unfortunately my developer account was blocked by Google Play and all my Apps was removed from Play market.
I will be appreciated to your help:
1. Go to link https://support.google.com/googleplay/contactflow . Choose Applications and game for Adroid and Application missing in Play market
2. Ask supports to unban my developer account and return all apps to play market.
Thanks.
It's terrific. I use it in the top-left corner.

terrific? Does not work? Or what?
He/she means that it's working great.
Been using this for awhile now, i think it was like 1.1. This is the best brightness adjuster for Android, period. Something that shouldve been included by Google by default.
I have absolutely no issues with it. At first I would accidentally trigger it when pulling down notifications but once I changed it to be top left, i just pull down from the center or right side and no longer have issues.
Great great app. Surprised you've kept it free. Definitely would be worth paying for.

You can donate me. There is a button in the settings of Display Brightness
I will do.
Also, just noticed a bug with the latest release. When it starts up, it's causing auto brightness to be turned on.
Turn autob off. Set db to auto start, restart phone, autob is on. Turn autob off, launch db, autob is on.
Running on 4.0.3

What happend to your app? I can't find it in the playstore anymore.
Google blocked my account and removed all my apps from Play market.
All appeals was useless. Google is confident in its infallibility
This was my favorite screen dimmer. I have the apk saved but I hate that Google has removed it from the store. What happened?
My developer site was hacked and used to show porno banner.
I removed all links from all applications to that site. But Google blocked my 4 applications as violation Sexually Explicit Content
I don't understand why they blocked only 4 apps, but did not blocket other 15.
And after appeals google blocked my developer account.
I will be appreciated to your help:
1. Go to link https://support.google.com/googleplay/contactflow . Choose Applications and game for Adroid and Application missing in Play market
2. Ask supports to unban my developer account and return all apps to play market.
Thank you
Thank you for posting your app here. It's one of my my favorite apps ever!
Is there an updated version? This app is great!

This was one of my favorite apps. I just got a Pixel 2 and looked for this and was depressed that I couldn't find it. There's nothing else like it on the market and it is so damn useful.
I uploaded the latest version of DisplayBrightness Pro app to first post of topic.
Thanks a lot for the upload. It´s the best brightness App

I tried doing this. They were unsympathetic, and would give me no information. They would not tell me why you were banned either.
There is nothing else on the Play store that does what your app did. I'm glad you posted this so I can still access it and recommend it to other people.
Exactly what I was looking for. Great app! Thanks

I already had v5.1 installed - is the one you attached to the first post different? I tried all the donation links in the app I already have, but they all seem to rely on your domain - which seems to have been taken over by a spammer. If you don't fix that somehow, then nobody can donate and I strongly doubt Google will restore your apps if they link to that domain.
A pity, as I've realized how much I use your app (since I couldn't find it in Google Play anymore) and you certainly deserve a donation for creating something so useful. It's absolutely one of the very first things I install on every new Android device I get. Thank you for being so generous by uploading your app here for free.

Google must have gotten tired of this and changed things. Your instructions no longer match what appears on their site. I managed to get to an offer of a phone call from them in ten minutes, but haven't done that yet. Might try it later, but I'd be surprised if it helped much.

Questions about cyanogenmod 9.1

Hi there,
i just rooted my htc sensation and put the cyanogenmod 9.1.
It is really great but i have some questions:
-the Barclays Banking app don't work cause they blocked the access to the root phones, i found on the forum some [how to] for the S3, but didn't work for the sensation, do you have any solution for that?
-the sync of the address book with Facebook and twitter is no working, Ok I know that Google prefer that we use Google+ and don't add this feature in his own system, but there should be a solution, some API to flash in the firmware, or things like that..(i don't want to use apps like, syncnow, friendcaster ecc)
Please answer as soon as possible to my questions, and really thank you so much in advance for your patience.
Ps Sorry for my bad English

Hi there I don't know the solution to your first problem but I do for your second :victory:
I often come across situations on ROMs when there is always those one or two apps I know I wont use so I use a application called Titanium Backup to 'freeze' them. You need the paid version to be able to freeze apps so here's a link to it via the Play Store CLICK ME
BUT if you're a cheapo like me go to a website called APK MANIA and then search for "Titanium Backup Pro 5.6.0 APK". I would give you a link to it but that is against XDA regulations.
sorry maybe i didn't explained really good. i don't want to freeze application, i want to know if there is a method for sync the facebook address with the telephone address...as the photo, the callendar, ecc... as it was on the htc sense..
Sorry, but as i told my english is not really good.
THIS could be your app to sync facebook with your contacts. I do not know if there is any mod/update or anything you could use instead of applications.

Sorry for misunderstanding you...
So basically when you go to accounts and sync in settings and you select Facbeook you don't have the options to sync your different things?

well, actually in account&sync everything is marked(whatsapp,facebook,google+ ecc) but the sync for the facebook photo doesn't work, now i'm using friendcaster, but i really would like a better implementation as the one of the htc sense, (maybe there is a method to flash only this thing) or at least an app that allow me to select manually the friends with the photos (as haxsync, syncnow ecc..) but this is the method that i am using riht now with friendcaster...

Actually you are violating the xda rules by giving instructions on how to find warez, even without a link.
There are plenty of free apps that can freeze other apps. Dont come here showing how someone can get one of the paid ones for free...link or no link.

APK Downloader - doesn't require your Google username or password

Shameless plug but I think it would come in handy for quite a few people.
This tool allows you to download any (free) APK from the Android Market by simply entering it's package name. There's no requirement to install anything, enter your Google username/password or enter your device Id.

I can see how it can come across as spam as I have 0 post history but it isn't - it actually works. Give it ago, nothing to lose.
This is the best tool of its kind and it really works. Thanks OP for this wonderful thing. Even there is a binary for windows on the website.
This looks rather interesting.
However, as you point out in your own website "you shouldn’t trust random binaries on the Internet and thus the C# source code is available if you wish to build it your self", it would be great to know how this works.
The C# app is just a wrapper for your web app. It doesn't show how it's done, so it doesn't allay any fears other than running the windows app. You still don't know anything about the apk that's downloaded.
Great idea though.
Exactly.
However I've downloaded a few small files and they match with the ones I already had.
I won't share how it's done but the APK is directly downloaded from the Play Store as if you were browsing it your self. Feel free to do MD5/SHA1 checksum comparisons of the apk from the play store and of the apk downloaded via this tool.
So can this extension download paid apps for free or what? I don't know cos I'm not on my pc and can't view the link on my phone

If it could then the thread would have been deleted and the OP would be receiving a stern message about distributing warez on a developers' forum. So, no - it doesn't download paid apps for free, as it says in the 1st post.
I guess it was good while it lasted.
As for the last day, no longer working.

This looks pretty nifty! I was trying to download the new Kairosoft game with it, but I guess because it has IAP or something, your downloader won't work. It's a free app.

XDA app won't load any pages while scrolling

Basically the title. I can pick say android apps and scroll through threads but then it just stops and won't load more or let me go to another page. Is this something known or just me? I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling but no luck

How to find protocol of apps? (E.G. play://event-1)

What I'm trying to do is open an app using it's protocol with nfc. An example would be google.
chrome://history for example
But how can I find the protocol url without it being already availible?
I read an article here and this kinda seems like it but looking into many of my applications, non of them have a 'assetlink.json' or 'AndroidManifest.xml' file to tell the app to open the program with a link. Do I have to sniff the protocol links somehow? Any links to tools or posts would be appreciated
Not sure where to put this as 'Networking' didn't seem like the right place...
All Android apps have an AndroidManifest.xml it is in the APK. I could create a scanner that scans all apps for them.
Is there a specific app you are looking at?
I have added deep links to my app (Alliance Shield) if you would like to see what apps have deep links. The update should be hitting the play store next week, if you want the beta version ask and I will post a link
*Free registration required to use the app, also ads in the app, if you send me your username I will turn them off for you.
