I'm trying to work out how to download the APKs from the market straight onto my computer, or at least find a way of getting them there (apart from using a backup tool) any ideas?
AFAIK it's not possible officially.
use the force my friend
Using Elixir + RootExplorer I found some APKs in /data/app. So, you must to install the apps you want and after get the .apk you need.
Regards.

That's also my advice. But you do not need elixir, imho. Just install app, go to /data/app and copy its apk to sdcard, connect computer and copy apk on computer.
so i removed friendstream.apk because of forcecloses and htcfacebook for sense i got the apks from a stock rom and used root explorer to mount and paste the files into the /system/app folder so theyre there, but i dont see the apps or widgets but when i try to install them using the app manager on android it says its already installed, any ideas? thanks!
any help guys! thanks!!!

I copied the file "Dina.apk" to my Epic 4g touch but it won't install. It goes through the motions then says, "Application not installed".

you need to put it in your system/App folder using root explorer and set permissions, it can't be installed using a package installer
I've tried this method on my GS2 with the provided file and I just can't get it to work. It did work with the MicrobesGl live wallpaper though.
Hello,
You can generate a CWM script to install all share and other apps here:

Did you set the right permissions?

I deleted the DigitalClock widget by accident. I know there's plenty in market, but I liked the stock one. Anyway, I have the .apk, moved the .apk to /system/app with Root Explorer and changed the permissions (now it's rw-r--r--). But still, when trying to install, the message "Application not installed" appears.

when the app is moved into the system/app folder it is then installed, no need running the .apk through a package installer because youll just get the "Application not installed" error, this is because your trying to install a system app which is what the apk is and not a standard installable app.
once moved into the system/app folder and permissions set, check your widgets if not there do a reboot then check again, if its still not there then your doing something wrong or setting the wrong permissions.
If it's not installing, could it be because it's a Samsung app? For example the stock camera, phone and messaging apps just won't install when I'm on CM7. So I'm assuming the same is true for Allshare, though I may be wrong.

Thanks, tried all but the widget won't appear on the list. I guess something is wrong with the .apk then.

Samsung apps will only work on Samsung ROMs unless modded to work on ALL Android devices just like any other app specific to any other ROM
The app in this thread is odexed and for thus wont work with most ROMs as these are deodexed.

Keeps telling I can't copy to the folder because it is read only....
imediashare from play store is much better than all share, has built in HD channels and can show your youtube and facebook vids/photo/music

Thanks for this apk mate
Tab 2 7.0 no file copy
I took down the Dnla.zip, renamed it to Dnla.apk and moved it to my Tab 2 7.0. Then I used ES File and tried to move it to Root/System /App but it fails. I understand I need to change permissions for this. How do I accomplish this without rooting the device?

i downloaded it here
http://www.4shared.com/zip/Qh7B2YYx/NextToICSRomV1signed.html
ahh,next to ics rom.
Problem 1:
Some users find that the Swype is force closing, and the absence of gallery and music in App drawer.
If you face this problem, here is what you can do:
1. Using root explorer, delete Swype.apk from System/app (or) uninstall swype using link2sd.
2. Try looking for play music and gallery ics apk in system /app. If present MOVE them to SD card using root explorer. Tap rw at the top to move.
3. Reboot.
4. Install the following attached apk's in the post: SwypeICS.apk, and GalleryICS.apk, Google play music. apk or from the apks which you just moved to your SD card. For better performance of play music, again move the apk to System /app...and set permissions to rwrr. (Tick the first two boxes in the first row and the 1st box in the other two rows) and reboot.
5.Enjoy.
Problem 2:
ICS Gallery is not working on my phone.
Solution:Have you done it properly? Try again. I've fixed the link. Still if it doesn't work, I'm afraid you will have to install the old Gingerbread Gallery. Copy and paste gallery3D.apk from attachments into System/app using root explorer, set permissions to rwrr and reboot.
Problem 3:
Status Bar does not appear.
Solution: Re Install the ROM from beginning. It happened because the flashing was not done properly.

Hi, anyone knows how to push apk app taken out from system into our note 2?
I found the lost screen recorder apk in one of the system dump.zip after extracting it, I tried moving it into system/app and changing permission and installing is still not successful!
Am I doing it wrong? How then will be the right way to do it? please advise? Thx in advance... Really love to have screen recorder function as advertised by samsung
Normally you would push to /system/app make sure permissions were correct and then reboot, you do not need to 'install' it.
but you might need an ODEX file as well as the APK
Reboot
Hi, ok so just place the apk plus it's odex files in system/app , change permission and reboot it will be install correctly? :laugh:
Hi, I did just as you mentioned.. Reboot still screen recorder remains not install tried to install it then ... No luck still...
its highly likely that there are other files that the apk needs in order to work, can you upload the files you have?
