Some of live in some places ,where google do exist..but services are myth's.In my place a dollar is equal to 80 bugs, nexus 4 costs 35k (16 gb) ,HTC one 50k, Note 3 65-70k,Z1 57k.So,when some one purchase a phone above 30k ..He or she can at-least spend some few more on purchasing apps. But, google wont let us do that..they even dont let redeem some gift cards.Actually I was pirating some great apps (not ridiculously over priced) and came across this guilt I do spend the time that I had to spare on XDA. There some great stuffs developed by XDA members smart wifi toggles, Better battery meter.I am not a developer and never will be,but do hangout here ..which is kinda fraternity. Like, mike1986 page he says "If you like my work,you can buy me a beer" ..its kindaa sad that we cant contribute... So,all those developer's we are sorry for pirating your work,but please blame it on the policies
The reason that any posts relating to software piracy get locked down, and the reason that asking for links etc is banned is because XDA is based in the USA and would open itself to legal action if they allowed it to take place.

No. Please note the following:
6. Do not post warez.
If a piece of software requires you to pay to use it, then pay for it. We do not accept warez nor do we permit any member to request, promote or describe ways in which Warez, cracks, serial codes or other means of avoiding payment, can be obtained. This is a site of developers, i.e. the sort of people who create such software. When you cheat a software developer, you cheat us as a community
I honestly do not care what your excuse or rationalization is. Do not discuss it here on XDA.

As you know, "Spectral Souls" already released. Can someone crack it?
(Sorry for my english)
We don't talk about such things on these forums.
Also, why the hello can't people spend a few bucks on an app? Most of them cost less than a starbucks mocha.

1. I don't know, will it run correctly on my Spica, or not.
2. I'm from Ukraine, and we have Non-paid Android Market.
3. This game cost 15$.
You're asking for warez, we don't care why.

I answered the question.
Try shooting the developer an email. He/She/They/It might be able to arrange a payment method and you might be able to get an answer on whether it will run on your phone or not.
When does that "new users cannot post" thing come into effect? ...
I googled this reply about the same problem:
"The game can run on google g1 phone however we cannot really recommend to play
the game on device with qvga display, so it is very difficult to answer your
question properly, yes it can run but the performances will be low, so it is
really a matter of each person then... , also, if there is a technical issue the
game will announce before downloading the 1 GB if the hdware is supported or
not, so everybody could download it and at least check that the hardware is
supported or not, then to push the 1 GB download will be a personal decision."
Don't Get Us In Trouble
What part of this rule isn't clear to you? Let me highlight the "between the lines" bits that you should have picked up on ...
9. Don't get us in trouble.
Don't post copyrighted materials or do other things that will obviously lead to legal trouble. If you wouldn't do it on your own homepage, you probably don't want to do it here either. This does not mean we agree with everything the software piracy lobby try to impose on us, it simply means you cannot break any laws here, since we'll end up dealing with legal hassle caused by you. Please use common sense: respect the forum, its users, and those that write great code.
Forum Rules, Please Read!
Keep seeing posts about what apps do you use (I've posted a few myself). Thought I'd do a poll so that other new comers can quickly assess what the most popular options are instead of purchasing many different apps.

Sounds like your promoting piracy here... Since I do some Android development and have always respected the work of developers, I gotta report you and hope you get banned.
Maybe you should learn to write apps, pour your time and energy into it in hopes of making some money only to have people pirate it.

I completely understand and support the policy here.
However, I believe this was an innocent mistake. I certainly hope the OP doesn't get banned for it... All that's needed is a friendly reminder of the rules and clear warning not to do it again.
No need to crucify the guy for being unaware.
can't be innocent. that's from known warez site.

[could not stop myself:] How would _you_ know?
Apologies. I wasn't thinking. It's an app I really wanted to try as the reviews sounded good. As it's no longer available for Purchase, I didn't think it would be a problem as I see threads on here with links for apps ported from other devices such as super note

Apologies. If it was available to purchase I would purchase it. That was the only place I could find it. If some one can link a source where I can pay for it, I will do gladly.

Not to bash you anymore, so apart from any ethical considerations...
Reality is - until you advertise it - nobody here knows and cares how you obtained your apps.
The practical dimension is more important and really simple - if we want xda to exist, let's not provide grounds for piracy promotion accusations.
The rest is between you and your conscience (and copyright enforcement agencies I might add).

So should I request others be band for posting links to apps that aren't available to note 8.0 users as it isn't available via legitimate sources? The first guy to suggest I get band got vcl via an alternate source as well as supernote. Yes the site I suggested is unethical but how is that different to people posting a link to Dropbox?
I appreciate that what I did was wrong, but I take offence to be accused of not supporting developers. I've deleted the post and I'm willing to pay for the app if someone can suggest a way for me to do so.

Isn't that the pot calling the kettle black. While I appreciate I made a mistake with my suggestion, by downloading supernote on here, aren't you undermining Asus who have the rights to it? I'm just trying to understand where the moral lines are? Getting an app that is no longer distributed anywhere is wrong, but getting an app that is exclusive to a particular vendor?
Sorry for all my posts in this thread. I enjoy contributing to these forums. I've learnt a lot on here and like to help others where I can. I just don't want to get banned for suggesting sourcing an app that is no longer available

Let's not get into defensive mode, small missteps happen to everybody now and then. Nevertheless "everybody does that..." does not provide valid reason for anything.
It's not about yours, mine on anybody else's excuse on getting stuff in shady ways, it's about not advertising the fact on xda. Nothing more than that.
I'm sorry you had to learn that in rather unpleasant way.

Sorry for this post up front because I know it causes more drama but....
Even though I agree with the warez link not being posted here on XDA you make a strong point. The question is where does the line get drawn? Take the hotpot mods for example. They are allowing one to get something for free that usually is only obtainable through an additional monthly fee.
My opinion is these things should be decided by Moderators and not members because both sides have an argument when it comes to this. Best practice is to report the post and let them make the decision on what is best for XDA. When members confront other members a lot of times it has a tendency to get a bit ugly.
It's a shame this thread got side tracked so soon, I was hoping to promote discussion on the pros and cons of particular favoured apps . Wishlists of features and promotion of the lesser known apps for people wishing to experiment

Sometime during the week, I'm going to start an open google document to do a table of the apps listed on here and the features that each one has.
max resolution. max layers. export jpeg. export png. vector. brush types. layer options. duplicate, merge, colour, overlay, multiply, mask. blend took. dodge / burn tool. flip. grid overlay etc etc.
I will post a link once I have it up and hope that you can help in filling it in. These apps are all getting updates and i'm losing track of what has what functionality. Ideally, id like to minimise the amount i need to go in and out of various apps and this table should help me decide which ones best complement each other.
with out a blend / smudge tool. sketchbook pro is off of my short list. I can import my psd file from layerpaint into it, which is great but with out the smudge tool it makes colouring far to difficult.
both artflow and infinite painter have this option but I can figure out a way to open a psd file from a different application in them which is really frustrating.
looks like clover paint can both import and export in psd, it has unlimited canvas size and layers and also includes a blend tool... It's just made it to top of my list of apps to try.
I emailed the artflow dev and was told there is no plans in the near future to support psd import
Just my thoughts on this topic
(IM NOT TRYING TO BE OFFENSIVE)
xposed framework can be used to turn lucky patcher into a patcher on absalute crackcocain...... is xposed framework less illegal than lucky patcher? I DO NOT USE EITHER TO CRACK APPS AND I NEVER WOULD
I USE BOTH TO BLOCK ILLEGAL CORPERATE REMOTE USE OF MY CELLPHONE.... furthermore adware=logger and that is also illegal imo....
the topic: (I wont post the link because its 'closed' and i would like this topic to remain open, but this is why it was closed)
I read the thread and its not telling people to use my favorite app to hack... i paid for an app the other day that was only .99 cents but i installed the key apk first and didnt get it off gplay i was going to contact the developer about the problem but just used the fix in this topic lol.........

1.) You are wrong if you think hacking means cracking
2.) You are wrong if you think the app in question is not helpfull to developing. (Thats why i use it........)
3.) You are VERY VERY wrong if you think intelegence is not the main factor in bypassing licence
4.) Youu are wrong if you think bypassing licenses is always illegal locally.
5.) You are wrong if you imply licenses are always legal
6.) Google play does a plethora of illegal things of which are publicly documented. (hence why people crack them)
7.) You are blind if you think what xda does, does not CRACK various aspects of the android platform and much much more.
8.) Hacking in general (not cracking) will always and INHERENTLY lead us to choices... let people make those choices... because some people think that what google does is illegal and that they should be cracked...
.
I can keep going on and list to 100, but ill finish with this.
Thanks to you lots and lots of people will use this app to crack apps.... removing UNUSED odex files is NOT inherent to cracking apps.... so ironic.... I might be a big noob, but ive programmed since i was a little kid and the functions of this app are a godsend to DEVELOPING.
p.s. to developers.... notice how you already learned something?

or is xda now on the side of MASSIVE spam overhead? it wasnt when i use to post here 5+ years back...
OK, so I am on ATT next 12. So I get a upgrade every year. Mines a little over a month away. Right now I am tied between either the Nokia 1520 or the Note 3. I've never had a Windows Phone, however I have had an Ipod (ios) GS3 (Android) but never a windows phone. My two choices I have cut it down to is
Galaxy Note 3
Nokia 1520.
Which should I get. I like trying new things, but I seldom hear good things about the windows products. I really don't like the whole widget thing on my android. My home-screen is basically empty. If this helps out much. I do like the flexibility with apps with android though.
The windows phone is a bit cheaper which is a good thing lol.
Check out some of the post your screen threads. It'll give you new meaning to widgets and the power of what you can do with android.
There are 3 threads devoted to discussions about devices, please repost your question in one of these three threads: The what should I buy thread or the The Device Suggestion Thread or the The Device Comparison Thread.

Hi guys
Sorry for such a noobish topic in a forum where people seriously contemplate how to repair a bricked device
I play Minecraft PE and, some people know that there is a special perk called a "cape " in the game.
It was available in the game by using a redeem code in 2016 but I was unable to get it (I didn't know)
The redeem code has been expired, so even if I go back to old versions with tibu, I can't get it.
There are many modded versions of MCPE around which have capes unlocked. Could someone please teach me how to make one myself?
Thanks in advance
