Can I use a cyanogen mod messaging apk? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Does anyone know if this is possible? I've seen conflicting reports.
I want a stock, simple messaging app, every app in the market has so many bells and whistles...

Try ics messaging app in the market. Should fulfill your requirements.

I tried it, I can't deal with the ads inside the app. IMO ads don't belong in a "core" app. I know why the dev does, and not bashing it. But I won't use it.
It looks like what I am looking for, if they do an ad free version for a couple of bucks I'd gladly buy it.

N64 app

What happened to it? I paid the $5 a couple of weeks ago and loved playing with the emulator. I wiped my phone and started with a clean slate and a new rom. I went to go redowload the app and its no longer in the market. I'm not sure if this is allowed, but if someone could post the apk to n64oid if you have it, that would be great!

The reason why the n64 emulator is not on the market is because the developer of the emulator took it off the market because he didn't want any bad ratings

i believe it will be back up in about 2 months.
but he is doing fixes to it so its not a buggy beta.
(prays CM7 team doesn't do that)
I do have the apk but i believe under XDA rules we cant share it because if i believe the term is right Warez?
Aww man, I didn't find anything wrong with it. I didn't know if you were allowed to PM me the apk since I have bought it in the past? If not, are you still able to look up the developers email address?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I don't recommend you even ask someone to PM you the .apk, since it could still be considered requesting wares which would earn you an infraction.
Also, if you already bought the app I suggest you try contacting the developer and try to work something out.
Is it still warez if I have bought it?
*edit* I don't mind contacting the developer, but I can't even do that since I don't have his email and its not listed in the market...

Any idea how? I'm looking through my orders on the Android Market website, and it's not showing up - I presume because the app is no longer on the market. I can't find a section on the site to show billing history or something of that nature.

Just got this reply from the developer. Great guy!
A great number of users are complaining about the compatibility and running performance. Considering the bad ratings, I temporarily unpublished N64oid. I am doing a rewrite of some of the core modules. Don't worry, N64oid will be back much better in a month. And of course you won't have to pay for it again.
Attached is the apk file.
Thanks for the understanding! I won't let people down.

Better Keyboard 8 apk

I am looking for this keyboards specific .apk
I am fairly certain that I have found it online, but don't really trust the website. I have had it with every ROM that I have flashed up until RandomRom and suddenly it's no longer in the market. It's not a GB thing either because I had and used it with Anonymous i3.
I have never used app back up because often I am relieved to have a fresh start with my apps. Is there any way for me to extract it from a Nandroid backup? If there is would someone be willing to PM me and help me to figure it out? Does anybody have the app itself? Please help because I can't stand the stock keyboard or swype!
that's odd it might have been taken off the market. i had bought the better keyboard unlock key awhile ago but it's not showing in my list of purchased apps anymore.
I didn't find it when I was using the Market yesterday. I do have a backup from a few months ago though. It works perfect. I am not going to post it here...dont want a ban. That is/was a paid app. All of the skins are still on the market though. Maybe updating?? OP, PM me. Best keyboard IMO. Voice to text is unbelievable too

the only thing I use ROM manager for is to backup a ROM. It'll reboot into recovery, backup the ROM, then revolts when its done. You can install .zips from it. It does have ROMs available to download but its scarce. XDA site is much better. As far as I know rom manager does not install apps. I use titanium backup to back up my apparently plus the data within them so when I flash I don't have to download everything again

NO ROOT REQUIRED
YES YOU HEARD ME. NO ROOT REQUIRED.
Directions:
1. Download Modded Apk
2. Sideload apk (Install like any other app that is non market)
3. Sign into your Hulu Plus Account (YOU NEED A MEMBERSHIP)
4. Enjoy Hulu Plus

Does this work if you have adblock enabled? Is there a way to disable the adblock check? I'd switch to this in a heartbeat from Netflix if they got rid of the ads, even for paying customers. lol

To be honest Idk. I disabled the phone check within the app itself. And it is ad free already so i would think it would work fine.

Yeah no **** lol. Guess open source don't mean much. Adfree was one of the main reasons I root in the 1st place. I've got a backup anyway. I wonder if they can still support the app but just not through Google.

Most Android adblockers modify the hosts file to do the adblocking.
Sounds like the world is ending in here...
It's really not that big of a deal >.>
Android is open. The store is not. You can do whatever with Android, you just wont be getting it from their store. I don't know why everyone is so upset.
Considering that hosts blocking only works if you have root, I really don't see how this is a problem. If you can root your phone, you can install third-party apks without an issue.
Still, a *****ly move, but Google does make all of their profits selling ads. It is probably AdBlock that killed the fun, since it semi-worked (WiFi only) for non-root users.

Call me a Devil's Advocate here, but what's the big freaking deal with ads in apps????? I mean, I do hate the ones that get pushed as fake notifications with some of the crapware you can get on the market, but I don't consider the regular ones obtrusive... And let's remember, ad revenue is the bread and butter for Google, and a lot of the developers who offer their apps for free...
here's the link for ad-away. i prefer this one since you can customize your lists easily.

I must have been under a rock (or refreshing the Macks Rom thread too often ) but I just realized that the copy of AdFree I've had installed forever was no longer functioning.
