[Q] GetJar-Market Promblems!?!?!? - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Im currently on the awesome miui rom as of now. This has never happened before but i downloaded the tweetcaster pro app from getjar but when i tried to update it the market told me that i couldnt..because i didnt buy the app...is there a way around this..is this rom related..or is it my phone? It doesnt even show up in my installed section under my apps..im guessing that has something to do with it lol...thanks in advance

Isn't getjar a black market for apps... meaning you can get paid apps for free... I'm thinking it is... and you will get no help here because that is piracy! As for the not updating... if you didn't buy it from the android market it won't update because it checks that it was bought from the android market...

Actually its a legit alternative market. Please don't flame the guy unless you know what he means
As far as updating apps through the google market place... well you can't its like the amazon app store in that sense, unless the developer updates the app on getjar there won't be an update

Miui.us is awesome isn't it? Though I am a little biased. What the other people said is accurate. You can only update thru where u bought it from.

[Q] New Android Market

I downloaded the New Android Market app and then downloaded a movie after trying to play the movies it says movie will not play on rooted device. Anyone else having this issue?
Google movies won't play on rooted devices. It knows that your device is rooted, and has to do with copyright protection. That's the way it is right now.

big brother knows... your right about the copyright protection. they dont want anyone using a rooted device because then google just became the "new pirate bay". you could buy the movie. copy it with TB or any back up. ask for a refund and have the movie for free.

Another issue that I'm getting with new market is apps say they have update, but when you try to update no option to. I restored back to old market until the dev put in rom.
Hmmm I rolled back and hours later the new one auto updated.

You don't want to try to rent movies on a rooted phone. Since root allows us to modify framework and potentially remove DRM, you can't actually view the movie you just paid for because content providers asked Google to restrict rooted users from accessing movies, even though you can still pay for it.
@mikeew83,
Not sure if you do this already, but check the android development and hacking forums. There is a section for apps and games, it's a great place to find apps.

That's where I got the updated market, downloaded netflix long before the official app came out for our phones, and a few other apps that I'd never have found if I didn't look in that forum. Definitely worth taking a couple minutes each day to browse if you ask me.

GetJar

They are giving away apps that are usually paid apps.
Examples:
SwiftKey X
Beautiful Widgets
They are legit, GetJar is working with app developers to do this. I'd post the apks, but i dont feel like dealing with the people who will tell me im giving warez out. However, install this and use it to get the apps. http://db.tt/7xbbJ7Cp

I like getjar, in theory. I just wish their site was easier to navigate, and they published updates to their apps.
Weird but if you uninstall getjar some apps don't work anymore they say they are part of getjar gold and you need getjar installed. Fortunately beautiful widgets isn't one of them. I only uninstalled getjar because it always stays in ram as 10mb

Free this week: Tapatalk! Swift key isn't on there anymore and I didn't back it up
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
send me your e-mail and I'll send it to you if you want. I mean I don't know if that's morally wrong but if you did download it when it was free and just didn't back it up I don't think it would be wrong would it? I have the SwiftKey X from GetJar when it was free. I don't want to do anything to hurt developers so if anyone feels this would be wrong if he's already downloaded it but didn't back it up let me know. I do believe in supporting developers. Funds are a little tough for me right now which is why I look for the GetJar specials or Amazon daily free apps.
I am starting to rethink Amazon though. I've heard stories that they take advantage of developers. Any info would be appreciated. I'll stop going there if they aren't being fair with developers there.

Oh, and if anyone hasn't tried TouchPal Keyboard I would at least give it a shot. Right now its free in the Market I think until the end of the month but after that they may charge for it. I've been using it for a day now and I really do like it. Very much like SwiftKey X. What's great is if you follow them on Twitter and "Like" them on Facebook you will get lifetime free upgrades. Hard to beat that. I'm going back and forth with the two and its a little tough to really decide yet. I like them both especially in landscape mode and they both work well with the slide out keyboard.
There's nothing wrong with giving it away.

Hey Counterfeit, as long as it doesn't raise any moral issues just click on my name and send me a private message so you don't have to put your e-mail out in public and I'll send it out to you.

You got my first app thanks since GetJar allowed me to get Tapatalk. Quite an upgrade!
ETA: happened to notice with all its advantages that Tapatalk was noticably slower. Checked the "3G Compatibility" option in settings and that seems to help quite a bit with no noticable drawbacks (and I'm on Wifi right now).

What about if you use Titanium Backup to force the market link or whatever it's called? Would this then attach it to the market so you could update from there?

[Q] Samsung App pack
I want the app back for my Tmobile Sgs2, I saw some for the Epic touch but it isn't compatible with my tmobile sgs2 is there any way that there is one for tmobile?? :|
Yeah, spider man, assassins creed, and much more. Its not a huge market but there are some good stuff in here for free.
Samsung Apps apk
Howdy folks. As you may or may not know, Samsung Apps is offering Dead Space for free. Now when I logged into the Samsung Apps store, it told me my country was not supported or some garbage like that (I'm in the U.S. btw). In any case, I downloaded the Samsung Apps installer from Puerto Rico and it works perfectly on my stock (but rooted) T989. It's in English. I thought I would share the apk in case you had problems getting it.
The app works just like the Amazon app store, and there are a TON of free quality games on there, from the aforementioned Dead Space, to Bejeweled, to Need for Speed, and the list goes on and on.
Enjoy. Click to Download from Mediafire
Enjoy! I made another thread with the APK before I saw this one. Sorry mods.
Sorry I made a thread before I saw this one. Anyhow, you can download the Samsung App apk (tested and working on our T989) from HERE
Thanks! I'm glad I don't have to be rooted, because I'm not looking forward to rooting my Samsung yet, waiting for official update then maybe ;p I came from a motorola CLIQ horrible! Thanks alot though.
I installed this but its not in my launcher? Any idea why?
All the paid apps are trials and Bejeweled wont even let you play. Says its a trial then asks for credit card info.
