Use of pirated or paid apps - General Questions and Answers

Hi Everyone
Good Evening
i am the new member of xda. i had heard lot about using pirated/cracked app in android. In many sites the paid apps are available for free. certain sites restricts use of such app while certain encourages.
i want to know whether it is safe to download such apps in mobile. if YES please suggest the best & safest site for such paid app.
is there any harm to my phone privacy using such paid app for free
thank you

XDA is a forum and community of developers, and here we don't discuss pirated/warez apps that cheat and steal from developers.
Is it safe? Of course it's not safe. Pretty much everybody here has rooted their devices, or is looking to. And you're asking about pirated apps? Might as well ask if it's safe to have sex with a back-alley prostitute without a condom. C'mon, man. Most paid apps only cost a few bucks at most, and if you're trying to get more gold or gems or doughnuts or whatever, rethink your priorities in life.

You need to read the site rules very carefully, http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=256
Warez are not at all allowed to be discussed here.

Not on XDA.
As you have found out, XDA doesn't tolerate warez or warez requests, so please don't ask for warez anywhere on the site.
Please read the forum rules at http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=530 before posting, as I notice you are new to xda, and think about the ethics of asking for free access to something which has cost lots of money to develop.
You want them? Buy them.
Most of them are crap anyway.

.... and just a little addition regarding the ethics,... the reason we are so anti warez here is simply that if we as consumers do not purchase software and games legitimately, hard working developers (more so the independent ones) could simply decide to pack it all in,... We'd be truly stuffed then.

[Q] Cydia or Hackulous for Android?

I saw an add in my local Clist the other day where a guy was offering access to free and most paid apps for download. He obviously wanted to charge a fee for this and didn't give a lot of details. He did say he'd add an app and then add "his servers", which update weekly. Sounds to me like another guy making a buck off of off something meant to be free and developed by the hacking community. I did a google search but only turned up old stuff from at least a year back. All of which had been patched. Anyone know what key words I'm missing or what he's using, it could be cool?
**Mod Edit - Warez requests are against the rules you signed up to when you joined the site. Please read and understand them BEFORE posting in future**
That would be completely against the forum rules.
Developers have to eat. This is piracy and not only against the rules @ XDA, but against the law.
Uncool.

Unless you personally own the rights to each of the apps, the answer is No.

Getting paid apps for free is considered warez and posting them is an easy way of getting banned from the site.

Cracked Google Play

Is it possible to get cracked or modded Play store or just crack or mod to it so i can download paid apps for free?
Pirating apps and the discussion of it is against XDA rules.
Discussion of warez is against the rules on xda. We are a dev site and therefore we support our developers. Id suggest u not attempt this again and instead pay the few bucks for your favorite apps

Must read!! | free in-app purchases in most of the games and apps

MUST READ!!!
Moderator edit...
Discussion of Warez and or directions or guides on how to cheat developers out of being paid is not allowed here at XDA
What is wrong with you? Why do you want to steal the hard work of a developer? Why would you research this type of sh*t, use it, and post it? I hope you get banned from XDA and every other respectable android forum. Go crawl back in your hole!
