im not one to condone piracy, but google will help you........

there's free alternatives to the widgets you get on LP plus. Colorize Widgets, agenda widget, big faces. the only thing you'd be missing is resizing widgets..
don't steal apps

Agreed.
Don't steal.
Developers will just stop developing and then we'll all have to switch to iPhones........ *shudder*

Sorry, but that's a lame excuse. My 15 year old son has a debit card (and sometimes buys apps). If nothing else (and there are tons of ways to get a debit card), you could get a gift card and use it to buy apps. If you feel you must steal apps that cost less than $10, then you have more problems than just not having a credit card.

I disagree. The LP dev is stupid to only allow paypal payments. I would have purchased it a long time ago if it wasn't paypal only.
I am NOT supporting warez here. Just my $.02 on the paypal only thing. I believe LPP would be used more if it didn't require paypal. At the point that a dev is circumventing the market, whats the market for?

whoa whoa whoa.. speaking out of turn here. Not all devs live in places where they are allowed to use google checkout, or to put paid apps in the market.
Don't call the guy stupid just because of where he lives. His country (Uruguay if memory serves) makes it impossible for him to use the market for a paid app. Paypal is his only viable option.
And pirating any apps is completely pathetic, but of course, it will happen. I wish I didn't see it in forums and threads on sites where developers and consumers so regularly go to support android. But, stupidity will be stupidity...
Furthermore, I'm a little confused by the way the author gets apps from the market. you can't bill to carrier, you have to use a credit card (unless you're on ATT, and even then, a month ago you couldn't). Does your mom buy all your apps? If that's the case, they why can't she buy you this one?

With T-Mobile you can charge your account as well! To be honest OP pay for the app!!! Support the developer!! Borrow a friends card! But don't take the slimy way out and look for a free pass! What if the shoes was on the other foot??

Maybe the author doesn't normally buy paid stuff. I have been on Android for years, and I have only purchased ONE app. I have donated to a few devs that make roms, but I typically don't buy apps. I WAS going to purchase LPP, but once I found out I have to deal with paypal, I quit. It's not worth it for me to go through transferring money to paypal, (3 days) and then making a payment to LPP, only to wait until the paypal payment has been recieved (another day or two) just to get a $2.99 home replacement.

Visa. MasterCard. Go to just about any bank, grocery store, or variety store and purchase one. With PayPal, you don't even need a CC. Just open a checking account.
BTW - I agree paying with PayPal is not the best option. I had a bad experience with an app and I will never do that way again. However, I still will not steal the app.

Umm you don't have to actually pay with your PayPal account, they just do the processing, you can pay with whatever credit/debit card you want. I don't even have a PayPal account and I bought the app just fine using my debit card.

PayPal can be used, can't it? I think these developers work extremely hard and it's difficult, even being broke, to use their fantastic programs and not compensate them for their time and effort.
Think of the position you're in... if your valuable time and hard work went without reward and you got no return on your investment, you'd be upset as well. It's just a couple of bucks here and there. You can EASILY find these on Google but please, don't do it, man.
I'm all for warez when someone is just going to be used once or if I'm uncertain if I'm going to pay full price for something. But if something is honestly worth the money, even my cheap ass will buy it. This world is ****ty enough. Don't go ripping off developers.

I do this sometimes but if the app is not in usd, your forbidden to charge it to your tmobile acct.

I would like to pay for apps, but when I try pay in the market it tells me to put credit card details in and won't accept my debit card. Anyone know how to solve this?

{Off topic} Why do people pirate apps?

It really annoys the hell out of me when people like to do so called *cracking apps* when they don't even know that is. Cracking means modifying the source code illegally and using the app for free which would otherwise cost money. You ARE NOT cracking it. You are STEALING it. The developers are working day-night just to make couple of cents but you on the other hand pirating it.
Just go outside and have a deep thought about it. You are willing to spend $50 easily on shopping, whereas, you don't even pay a dime for all the hard work the dev do it for you. It is just stupid. If you found a dollar on the road you wouldn't pick it, but where it comes buying $1 app you google it day and night all day long. I am not a dev but I do understand how it's like. So please please for god's sake stop piracy.

Go go sopa! or not?

Its because they are cheap and don't understand or care that it takes a lot of time and money to develop apps.
In many cases of free apps I wish there was a way to donate to the developer as I hate using something for free that I feel I should pay for.

To test for a greater time than 15 mins would justify a bit of searching. PowerAMP got it right back in the day. Something like 2 weeks full version trial then you must purchase. Still the best buy I've had on Android.

If you really wanted the app, you would have got the free version. I am sure that you looked for something like " how to get paid apps for free?"

There no access to credit card nor charge cards or whatever cards. So they have to use cracked apps.

For me the situation is quite different.
I have been stealing apps (yea, i don't affraid to admit it, but im not brave of it). Then i decided to start buying them and supporting developers (bought Cerberus and couple other).
It's maybe my problem, but im affraid to provide my credit card numbers to websites such as google wallet to let them pull the money they want. The paypal here was solution, i could charge my paypal account, so they didn't knew anything about my credit card and it was safe. BUT then wild Google Wallet appeared and there's no such option. No money transfer, no transfer from paypal, i have to provide numbers on back of my credit card. If someone in google goes mad, with the provided cc numbers he can pull as much money as he want. I know it sounds riddiculous, but I like safety. I can't relly on their good will, that thay won't abuse it.
So i stopped buying apps, as there is no way to put money on my account.

I use cracked apps just to check if they are worth the money. I treat them as demo. If I like it I buy it.Cheers

I have no problem purchasing apps, but I do know that aside from the credit card issue, many games and apps just aren't available on playstore in many countries, these are great apps and games and I don't see a reason why they shouldn't be available everywhere, maybe we should look to the causes of many people's pirated apps.

I have to use Market ebabler, and droidVPN so I could view all of the apps on play store.
This is insane!
I've spand 100-200$ for android apps.
I'm with android since 1.5 back in 2009.
Some apps are simply overpriced and I have to find a solution does the app deserve the money, and for that reason I google it to find it for free, just for testing.

There are such things as prepaid credit cards. Just a hint. As an alternative some markets (not Google Play) accept also paypal etc.

Google Play with paypal, at least 20% of us will start buying apps.
I dont use many apps on my android, so buying few apps is not a problem for me. bank in in about RM10 ( 3USD+- ) on my account, and bought apps. Im a student thou. Other than that, I often buy iPad apps, even thou I jailbreak it. Jailbreak for me is only for tweaking. I even bought paid cydia apps. Same goes to my android, root/unknown source/s-off or what so ever, I dont support piracy.
Have the kaching to bought devices/gadgets but dont have the kaching to buy apps? what say you.

Late payment of Verizon bill w/ unlimited plans

This is kinda related to a GS3 because I have that on my plan, anyway, if I have 2 unlimited data plans still on contract, can Verizon do anything, or will they, if I forgot to pay my bill by the due date and it was paid one day late? It was never disconnected or anything, but just wanted to see if a similar thing happened to anyone else and if they know what Verizon does? I'm just mainly referring to whether they can cancel your unlimited data if you paid a day late, or if it's ok since it wasn't very long after te due date.
Thanks

Lol. No. I got laid off during the summer and had a $600 bill. Just call them and work out a plan. I have one unlimited and three regular lines.

Your good as long as you call them to let them know before the automated system gets a hold onto your account.

I was gonna say I pay the moment I get a text saying my account is about to be turned off and not any sooner.
If Verizon wants to let me use my upgrade and keep my unlimited data I will change my mind.
Until I leave them this is my practice.

But it wasn't even 24 hrs past the initial due date, like it was due on the 1st day and I paid right after noon on the 2nd day. There was no sign of any automated system taking a hold of my account, not tha I know the sign of that, and I already paid it. Do I still need to call them to let them know? What do I need to let them know if it's already paid? And if it's already paid, does their automated system still react to it because it was a few hours late?
For those who say they don't pay until they get the email saying they will be disconnected, how long after the due date of your bill do you get that email?

lol I cant believe there is a thread on this topic...i guess i should create a guide "how to not pay your bill and keep service on 4.1.2" .

Having worked for Big Red for a couple of years as a CSR/Tech Support (not currently), yes you can go through the automated system and let them know a payment has been "sent" even tho you may not have actually sent one. This is stop them from bothering you for a while. Unless you are extremely delinquent (Past 2+ months), they won't turn your phone off. There's usually a 25-35 re-activation fee per line but you keep your same plan.
I pay late myself just because it works better for my financial situation and changing bill cycle/due date is such a PITA. I highly recommend against it because 99% CS rep don't know how to calculate your pro-rations and end up effing it up, costing you both time and money.

Like I said in another thread. The S3 General forum is turning into an OT-like forum. I don't know if it's age differences (I'm 34) but it seems to me that a lot of people need their hand held for a lot of frivolous things nowadays. Like "should I use a screen protector on my phone?", "I'm thinking about changing phones, need opinions, help!". C'mon. :silly:

That's a lot of money man but the reason my plan is 300$ is because I get Walgreen discount plus a reduction from an issue with Verizon... The store manager put me on a 2yr contract when I signed up with a used phone.. That asshole got me like 40$ of the plan for the first year he hehe.

paying late shouldn't affect your credit, but i would read all the fine print about your unlimited plan. i am on unlimited plan and they do not slow down my speeds and I still maintain the account. I use over 50gb a month so i really need it. always be careful not to lose it.

A dollar for a calculator app!?

Yes. I have a Neo but still is relevent to Gear 2.
The lack of apps and not being able to sideload is irritating right now but I believe when development progresses we will get these things. I refuse to pay a dollar for a calculator app or 2048. I would like to have them on my watch but think they are taking advantage. I just gave samsung 200 dollars for my neo, they should provide more free useful apps.

Translated: "May be a good idea .."

It's true that 3rd party devs made the apps in their free time and I guess should be getting some money out of them but its really frustrating that Samsung released its watch that is starting to get popular with pretty much no apps available. And now when they realized their mistake they decided to launch the app challenge. The users are growing in numbers and the app store isn't keeping up. And paying $2 for a simple calculator app is pretty unheard of. Devs think since there are no apps they can scale the prices and I guess it does make sense but the fact remains that Samsung did a pretty dumb move here by not giving us any apps at launch cuz of their port to Tizen

My issue is is moot. One of our own XDA developers made a free calc app and had it approved by Samsung and is in the Samsung apps. Please feel free to buy smeiff a beer if you like and use his app.

Brace yourself because you are going to see more apps cost money than be free due to the lack of screen real estate needed for effective advertising.

Interesting point. Don't think it will be much of an issue for me anyway as I've noticed the more apps I load, the less battery I have (some apps make a big difference in battery life).

Unused phone credit??

Hi guys. This is not specific to the z3 i guess but just wanted to ask here as i can't ask Vodafone. Let me explain why. Basically Vodafone have somehow mistakenly added credit to my phone to the amount of €300. No idea why or how this happened but it's been over 24 hours and it's still on the phone so it appears to be legit. However, iam already receiving free texts and calls so i can't use the credit lol it also can't be used in the Google play store which is a shame. Does anyone know if it's possible to use phone credit to make purchases online? If possible then root access would be required i imagine?

If Vodafone have added it as a credit then it will go on to your bill, basically you'll get like 10 months free assuming your line rental is €30 a month.

Iam pay as you go and signed up for free texts etc The only thing i get charged for is calls and i barely make any to significantly use up much credit! If i could use the credit for the app store it would be awesome but even better if it could be used to shop online as i have quiet alot on the phone but i highely doubt it possible to shop online with unused credit ha

In that case then I'm not sure. Ring Vodafone and ask for a refund, then you can do what you want!
