Wonder if these will be like the 10 cent apps where they change every day, or if they will be the same apps the whole 5 days?

.10c apps in the Android Market !!!!

Boys and girls, it looks like the android market's having a clearance sale. Open the market on your phone. At the very top should be an ad for 10c apps. Got a bunch myself. Don't forget to clear your cache if you don't see the deals.....or just search for each one individually.
Today's deals are:
SoundHound
Asphalt 6
Minecraft
Swiftkey X
Endomondo Sports Tracker Pro
Great Little War Game
SketchBook Mobile
Color & Draw for kids
Paper Camera
Fieldrunners HD
Haha darn you, I was gonna post, pretty awesome for google!
Free bump
.: sent from my Samsung Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch :.
Thanks downloaded a bunch.
Bumpidy bump.
Forgot to include Field Runners HD in the list. Original post updated.
Now all we need is titanium backup, uloops pro and root explorer and Im gravy.
If Google's gonna keep this up, they'll COMPLETELY win back any Market customers they might have lost to Amazon.
Nice move, Google:
"Instead of 1 free app, wouldn't you rather choose from a dozen apps that only cost a dime?"
Um...
Yes.
I love how sometimes it's the simplest ideas that work.
Got 5 new apps for $.50 and they look like pretty decent time wasters. Very nice.

can anyone help me i tried to download Swift key but after purchase i accidentally clicked refund and now it wont let me install because it says it has to be purchased
I like the playerpro sooo much but its too pricey, they could add that to the sale. Asphalt on the other hand is a GREAT DEAL, HD game from gameloft for 10c OMG.
To celebrate this milestone, we partnered with some of the Android developers who contributed to this milestone to make a bunch of great Android apps available at an amazing price. Starting today for the next 10 days, we’ll have a new set of awesome apps available each day for only 10 cents each.

I was playing around with Paper Camera today. Holy crap that's such a cool app. How did I not know about it?
There are some good apps on there. That Sketchbook app isn't cheap either. I had to grab most of the ones I didn't already have. Thanks OP!

Oooh. Minecraft.
Thank you so much, never would have looked! Ended up getting 5 applications.

Ran across this sale by accident.
Anyway, it looks like they are going to have 10 apps for $.10 for ten days.
Pretty cool.
Also, it looks like some of these apps were also offered as free from Amazon. I almost got Paper Camera and Sketchbook Mobile again until I checked my Amazon apps list. That's $.20 saved for 2 more apps tomorrow
Amazon drm sucks. So I just bought paper camera for 10 cents

[Q] Data limiting?

Seems Im at 1.5gb of my 2gb cap already and I just paid my bill on the 16th. NO idea how I used THAT much data in such a short amount of time but w/e. I need a way to limit data use but not hinder text messages and such. I use wifi everywhere except to and from work.

PowerAmp downloads albums art every time....

Here's how to bypass that. Buy a Blackberry, activate it on your account (this will switch your data type in T-Mobile's system and effectively re-zero it), then after 24 hours, change back to your Android, and bang, you're back at a fresh start. Don't forget to return the Blackberry. You can do it sooner than 24 hours, just need to change out the phone in their system. I wait 24 hours so as not to raise suspicion.
Works.

Does GameStop, Radio Shack or Target offer NFC payments?
If so go there, buy a gift card and use the 10 dollars from the Wallet credit to buy it.

Are they having new app today?
Nothing worthy
Is it only in the US that you can buy movies to own? In Canada all I can do is rent
that office app is an awesome deal, it was like 16.99 before I think

[Q] Movies

I would like to start watching some movies on my note 2. I don't want to download them to my device. I was thinking of using drop box and a program which puts dvds as a file. It takes a rather long time and I would rather not want to do this every time. Is there a website or something that allows you to Stream your own movies for free?
most movies nowadays come with ultraviolet copies. if your dvds don't then try setting your computer up as an ftp server and host them yourself

if you were trying to "share" movies over your own home network, like watch movies that were on a home computer in another room, that would be easy. Stupid easy. Set your folder with movies as "shared" over the network, use something like BubbleUPnP player, or even XBMC for Android (quite a bit more complicated to set up, but Way Worth it, once you set up the library and shares) to browse and watch. (with XBMC, I woiuld set it up on the host sys, set up the libraries and metadata there for sharing over the network.)
if you are trying to "share" movies over the internet (from your home, I assume?), for you to watch when you were out at another location, well that's a hobby unto itself, and outside the scope of what you could expect here at XDA. Learning how to set up a "real" server (FTP, SMB/CIFS), takes time and (at least self-) education. People get paid to do that kind of stuff, right? Worth learning, if you have the time. But I don't have the time to even teach you the basics. There are no basics.
Not to mention most likely your bandwidth upstream from home, on most IPSs, is not very great. I wouldn't want to stream anything but standard definition vid files, And it might "kill" the internet use for anyone at home.
But for fun, here are some basic solutions and/or information for you to explore, get started. If you start to play around with networking, you'll quickly become a "computer genius" to family n friends. :

http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/9659/how-to-install-and-setup-windows-home-server/ (WHS is another fave, even though they dont "make" it anymore, it can still be found, and is a stupid easy way to "get started" in servers if you're comfortable in the Windows environment, I always recommend it to anyone that doesn't want to get into command line *nix kinda stuff, just wants to play around with a functional and easy way to have a server, works great, and completely instantly compatible, obviously, with any Win based PCs at home.)

Good Luck!
I use Remote Media Center from the play store. In conjuction with remote potato server app running on your home computer to serve your media. RMC will utilize MX player to handle the video playback on your phone. (Install MX player). I've been using this setup for almost a year no problem. I've got tons of video and pictures, music I don't need to carry with me.

I downloaded this after seeing your post and have watched every new movie from 2012 I'd wanted to see but wouldn't pay $20 to go sit in a theater full of morons crunching popcorn, slurping soda, texting, talking and making my night miserable what a waste. I haven't been to a theater in 2 year's or so cause of that crap. Price is too high to go watch a movie that you miss half of from the rude idiots acting like they're sitting on their own couch and didnt just pay a small fortune to be there. I can't quite figure out why the prices have gotten so high its not like the theaters have gotten any nicer or more private. I could see a price increase if they weren't packing 200+ people in a 150'x150' room im seats where you're practically sitting on each others lap.

it's basic economics. wherein a business is not considered successful unless there is measurable Growth in profits to show to investors every year. (ie: "how can we squeeze more money from our customers while bringing production costs down/delivering less, and do it better than last year?") theaters have become the worst experience you can have for $15, hands down.
if it wasn't for IMAX, i wouldn't go to theaters at all. even then, at home i've got excellent surround sound, 55" screen. and i get to take pee breaks. and i make way better snacks than Regal. (you haven't lived until you've had my open-faced chopped steak and provolone sandwich)
and people wonder why i'm a verified, unrepentant, and proud pirate. over 700 movies in my collection, and counting. (not to mention TV seasons... and hundreds of thousands of songs...) that's why I maintain a robust server in my basement. any bit of my media collection is accessible by any terminal in the house.
call me a hypocrite if you like, but i never pirate software. and verbally slam those that do. *shrug*
Why would they have an app that allows for not so legal activity in the play store?
Questions like this is why they get pulled........ shhhhhh
