hi people i finally found a way to download apks from the market onto your pc
from the market to your pc without a phone free apps only
this will not download paid apps for free
it works great
http://codekiem.com/2012/02/24/apk-downloader/
chrome only
hope it works
what to do
1. Right click on Chrome shortcut, select “Properties”
2. Switch to “Shortcut” tab. In “Target” field, insert [space]--ignore-certificate-errors at the end. Once you have that finished, click “OK” .
It will look something like this:
C:\…\chrome.exe --ignore-certificate-errors
or
“C:\…\chrome.exe” –ignore-certificate-errors
Close Chrome and open it again with that shortcut
3. Open APK Downloader Options page. If your screen looks like the right picture ( the warning box is gone ), then you disabled SSL error warnings successfully
II. Enter email and device ID on Options page
1. There are two ways to get Email and Device ID
a. Easy way: install this Device ID app, it will show you your emails and Device ID
b. Difficult way: Open dial pad, call *#*#8255#*#* ( 8255 = TALK ). If it opens “GTalk Service Monitor”, find lines that begin with JID and Device ID. Your email is JID, and your device id is a string that after android- prefix
For example: if it shows android-1234567890abcdef , then your device ID is 1234567890abcdef
Do not type in random email or device ID, it won’t work
2. Enter your email’s password, then press Login. If everything is ok, now you can use APK Downloader
III. Start using
After finished two steps above, you can start using APK Downloader. Open Android Market, view any FREE apps ( for example: Simple Text ), then press the APK Downloader icon on address bar
IV. FAQs:
Is is against Android Market’s ToS?
- I’m afraid that it is. Please read Section 3.3 for more information. So again, you at your own risk.
Where is the Options page?
- Click on the Wrench icon on the toolbar, go to Tools -> Extensions. Find APK Downloader. At the end of its description, you’ll see a link to Options page.
Why do I have to enter my email, password and device ID? Does it store or send my password to another place?
- The extension only stores email, device id and Android Market cookie in Chrome local storage, on your computer. To be able to get Android Market cookie, it needs your email and password to login at https://www.google.com/accounts/ClientLogin . After it’s done, password is not stored, email is stored to display on Options page, Device ID and Cookie are stored for later requests. I do not send those information to another sites.
Why don’t you just put one account in the extension, so we don’t have to use our information ?
- That’s good for users, but not for developers like us. For example, when 1000 users download same app, it only counts 1.
Why do I have to disable SSL error warnings first?
- This extension needs to send data to https://android.clients.google.com/market/api/ApiRequest . If you don’t disable that warning, Chrome will display an error page, and there is no way to make this extension work.
Is it safe to disable SSL error warnings?
- It’s safe if you know what you’re doing. Please notice that it only disable SSL warnings, not disable SSL protocol.
But I recommend that you should create two separate Chrome shortcuts. One with and one without –ignore-certificate-errors flag.
Again, do you collect our information?
- I don’t want to get into trouble by collecting users information, so I try not to have it in any way. The only thing I’m collecting is which apps are downloaded by users. You can view the source code to make sure about this.
Can it download apps that not available in my country or not compatible with my device?
- The answer is yes, because it uses T-Mobile operator code.
Can it download paid apps?
- No, of course not, unless you purchased it with your logged account before. Please remember this isn’t a tool for pirating.
Why do you make this extension?
- I’m an Android developer. While working on my new project, I have to decompile some apps on Android Market. Everytime I want to decompile one, I have to download it to my phone, use Astro to backup it to SDCard, connect phone to PC, then copy the apk file. That’s a really long and painful to me, because I have to do it over and over again. That’s why I come up with this idea.
V. Changelogs:
1.2.1: 03/07/2012
Switches from android.market.com to play.google.com
1.2: 02/27/2012
Disable download button on paid apps
New feature: Change sim operator
1.0: 02/24/2012
Initial version
isn't this a little useless?
if you'll download an apk to your pc, you're finally going to put it on your mobile unless you're going to edit the app with apk tool.
so why not download it directly with your mobile?

really nice work.....
Found this while trying to find something I had used a while back. It was made for Firefox but works fine in IE. Here's how to set it up and customize it:
Setting up the page
First, download the EIGHT zip from here: http://sdrv.ms/10qXWUS and unzip it to your root directory (C or your sd card)
Then paste C:\EIGHT\config.htm into a new tab. To change a link, simply type in the url (you MUST have http:// included in the url), along with the name of the png (if there is one for the site you want. you could also make your own, but I didn't have any luck doing that with IE)
Once you are done customizing, make sure you copy and paste the generated code into the source.js file in the folder.
Once this is all done, paste C:\EIGHT\index.htm into your tab. It should load your page.
Using the page
Now, to set it as your new tab and home page, open desktop IE and open internet options. Paste file:///C:/EIGHT/index.htm as your home page. To set it as your new tab page, click on the "Tabs" button right under that area. In the following window, click the drop-down and select "You first home page", Click ok and ok. You're all set!
Warning: for some reason, in metro IE, the page takes a little while to load. On the desktop however, it's great.
Cudos to flatmo1 over at DeviantArt who first made the original version of this!
Have fun!

Upon login to the Google play store you may be wondering why, every time (and with a reliable WiFi connection), you get the message - "Couldn't establish a reliable connection to the server", "Please try again." etc.
Many 'fixes' have been released, such as...
Login via YouTube/Gmail
Check date and time..
Some of these work. BUT, this fix is the only one that fixes the problem related to the 'Freedom' app.
So, ask yourself... Do you/have you have/had the 'Freedom' app (The one that generates 'FreeCard' numbers for free in-app purchases. YES? This is the fix for you. NO? Sorry mate, you'll have to keep looking.
Anyway, enough blabbering on. Lets get on with this.
FIX/SOLUTION:
1. Ok, on your device, go to bit.ly/1rMwE2q in a browser. (e.g. Chrome)
2. Press yes, this file wont harm your device, but if you are worried, you can un-install the app after the fix.
3. Open the 'control panel' (by swiping down from the top of the screen)
4. Once the download has finished, press in and then hit install.
5. Once it has installed, press Open.
6. You're half way there now. Once, the app has opened, find the file called 'etc' and press it.
7. Once your in the 'etc' folder, at the top of your screen, press the "Mount R/W" button.
8. Now, find the file called "hosts" inside the "etc" file you are already in.
9. Press and hold the "hosts" file
10. Press "Delete".
11. Nearly there now. If you wish, you can now un-install Root Explorer.
12. Open GMAIL, and login. YOU ARE NOT DONE YET
13. Go to Settings>Google (Under Accounts)>Your account (e.g. [email protected])>Three dots in the top right corner>Remove/Delete account. (Press it) IT WILL NOT DELETE YOUR GOOGLE ACCOUNT, DON'T WORRY!
14. Now navigate back to the main page on Settings and go to Add Account>Google>Then login to your Google account.
15. Open the play store and BE AMAZED!
Happy Browsing!

This came about as a way to help friends and family shutdown, log off, restart, or put to sleep their PCs. Then I started building upon the concept and it ending up becoming a full fledged app. This is my first project/app and I wanted more people to check it out and get some feedback.
The server(desktop) application can be downloaded from here:
[Download](http://d-h.st/ONm7) (Windows)
I am looking for help on a better delivery method for the server application. I wonder if there is a way to launch an install when USB is plugged to a PC?
Google Play Store [Link ](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.matleo.remshut)
EDIT:
Instructions:
1. Download the server application then launch it.
2. Then Launch the mobile app.
3. Go to the add a PC screen by either clicking the "+" in the action bar or "Add PC" in the navigation drawer.
4. Save the IP and nickname for the PC you want to send commands to.
5. Select the PC you to send commands to by going to the "Saved PCs" option.
6. Then set your time and command.
7. Click the remote button to send the command to your PC.

If you have installed the Windows app v1.0 you have to uninstall it and use the live version. If you want to move your current data (messages, trusted devices and configuration) you have to:
- open the directory "c:\users\your_user_name\appdata\local\apps\2.0"

1. unzip the " easyjoin.portable-v*.zip" file
2. select all files in folder "easyjoin.portable*"
3. copy the selected files in the folder with the current installation of the program
Note: All your data (devices, messages, settings) are in the "data" folder. By following the above procedure you don't delete your data, you only update the program.
In the Windows version there is a button in the "Settings" menu to check for updates.
Great App.
Your app is very useful. I am using it on windows 10 and android devices. It's working very smooth.
Suggestions:
1. If possible you should add an option to select different sound for notifications.
2. You should add theme options in future updates.
3. In message section, Long pressing on message or file should select the message. Just like you can select message & It gives more options in whatsApp.
4. Are you planning to make an app for iOS in future?
Uninstall guide for Windows app.
You should add step by step uninstall guide for windows app. I am a very basic windows 10 user and I am not able to uninstall the app. I am not able to find directory. It would be great if you can help me with it. Thanks in advance!

About uninstalling the windows version. All you have to do is delete the directory containing the program. Only, if you have enabled the "startup on boot", you have to disabled it in order to remove the key from the registry. Is a self contained app, if you exclude the Microsoft .NET Framework that you have installed separately, and all the files that it use are in the same folder/subfolder.
1,2 are in the todo list.
3. will be available in the next version.
4. Creating an iOs version is not in the current plan because I miss the hardware needed for development.

Available from version 1.0.10. You can send a message (text or file/image) to another application. You can also select multiple messages to forward to an other device or delete.
Awesome!
That's awesome and It was fast! Thanks a lot for quick update!
Just one suggestion about point 3. When you select text, there should be an option to copy it. Just like WhatsApp.
*About uninstalling windows version:
- I am not able to find the directory. Is it unzipped folder location for easyjoin.exe file? Deleting easyjoin.exe deletes the program, right?
- Also what's the location for that registry file?
*About future plans:
1.What are your plans about easyjoin?
2.There are only few good apps that does file sharing notification sharing for devices. Is it a fun project to provide a free app to users or You are planning to make premium version in future?
3.When did you think about making this app? Are you working on some other apps?

Is the folder containing the easyjoin.exe file. If you have enabled "startup on boot" open the app, uncheck the box and then delete the easyjoin folder. The registry file is the Windows one but don't worry about it, just follow the above instructions..
My plan at the moment is to create an easy-to-use application, improve the UI (the current user interface should be considered in alpha version), which does not need an external server to share files and notifications and do not overwhelm the user with advertising.
Android app update
There is a new file browser to select the files or folder to send to other devices.
You can use the file browser as stand alone app - there is a new icon in the app list.
Very good job. 'Till now I've used an app that use the ip addresss within the same network to make connection between phone and pc. But your app is faster and simpler.
Hi, i like it. Will you implement a Exit / run-in-background choice on Android?
That would be a great addition. But It will use some battery, right?

Hello. The app continues to run in the background even when you exit. Is that what you are asking for or have I misunderstood?
Btw in my devices I have not noticed an increase in battery consumption leaving the app running in the background.

The key word is "choice".
Sooner or later i always have to manage apps with services (freeze, take away receiver intent or uninstall if they refuse to play along) because no matter how small the impact (battery drain, CPU time, RAM) it just sums up.... (or because i hate not be in control...otherwise i would accept an iphone-approach).
So if it does not hurt your philosophy and you like the power of the user, pretty please provide a choice. Thanks for considering.

edit, it's ok once I kicked my antivirus a bit, I got it working
How to add something as a trusted device though?

If I am correct, You need to download that zip file. (Link for zip is in the main post or you can download it from easyjoin.net)
Unzip that downloaded file. Open the folder. There will be .exe file. Run it & Pin it to taskbar. So that you can open from there.

Edit: Open EasyJoin on both devices. The app will detect available device with It's default/given name. There will be a + button with device name. Click on it to add it as trusted device.

VeProid7 was correct. Btw if you have issues with the Windows firewall you can use the vbscript file to open the port. You can execute the vbscript file directly from the folder or from the "Settings" window.
