Hello xda forum members,

2. How to see app comments in site and app from all the world? Not just from my country.
3. How do you fell about the google play app store? I feel that new style of the site is a big mistake

Where did the XDA forum app go?

Hi,
is it only me or has the XDA Forum app been removed from the android market?
Thanks for feedback,
It's gone for me, as well. I couldn't find it on my Rezound, my Kindle Fire, my Eris, or my PC. Thankfully, I had it backed up in Titanium Backup. The odd thing is that if I restore it with TiBu, the app will show as having an available update and the update will download and install normally. Even after the app is installed and updated, it still fails to show in the market if I do a search.
me too, tried to get it on my new Note, but couldn't find it so have to use browser.
It's been removed for the moment...

I couldn't even find it through my PC's browser. I went to play.google.com and searched but all that comes up is something called "XDA-Developers TV".

Thank you, Archer. At least we know now. I must have missed that announcement somewhere along the line.

Please also make it available on an alternate market.
I bought XDA Premium before Sep. 2011 but since then Google has changed their checkout method so I can no longer buy any applications from the Market.
I don't think prohibiting users from countries based on Google's bizarre policy is consistent with the XDA spirit.
yeah I went to manually find the APK, and all I could get was the premium version. I'm not trying to warez it, lol, so I just said forget it

I actually see no reason why the free apk couldn't just be hosted directly from this site, in addition to the market.
So sad :-( I liked the app
tapatalk works ok though doesn't it?
Why don't you guys learn to properly use search?

And you need to learn how to take a deep breath, count to ten, and consider that maybe, just maybe, I spent half an hour trying to find the answer to my question before finding this thread. Someone else was kind enough to post an answer to the question, so your post was unecessary. Go yell at noobs for posting Qs in the dev forums or something.

Purchase an app on Google Play without downloading it?

Hi guys,
I was wondering if there is a way to buy an app from Google Play but not download it yet?
The reason is I would like to take advantage of the $0.25c deal for The Dark Knight Rises on Google Play but I am not around wifi yet and don't have 1.8gb free on my SD.
So I would like to purchase the app but install it later, any ideas?
Thank you in advance
Its easy
Just Buy the App and as soon as the Download start, stop it.
So you Buy the App but not Downlad them.
duh! now I feel stupid lol
Thanks mate!!

The quoted portion of fatjivi's post, which you are likely referring to, was edited out. The quote contained the original illegal post.
Anyway, didn't the Play Store app used to have an option to only DL files over a certain threshold while connected to WiFi? I only see the option to restrict *all* downloads to WiFi.

Ah ok then, cool.
I'm not sure of that setting but thank's for the heads up, I'll check it out
I got around it by just buying the app and clicking download but canceling the download straight away.

New to Android

Hello guy just got my note 2 been on IOS a long time anyone know of a good place to get apps games and books

Must be new to xda also. Because you don't post in the development threads unless you have developed something to share.
And apps are in the play store...

Welcome to XDA... and please make yourself familiar about how things work here first. Maybe start by reading up on the forum rules - you'll find a link in my signature.
Posting a question to the development boards is a No Go on various levels. Always post your thread to the correct section.
Apps, Games and Books can be downloaded through the official Google Play Store, in case you were asking about other places which isn't allowed as we do not condone illegal activities.
Oh thanks

Alternatively, you can use your amazon account to buy apps. Here's the download link for the app:
https://www.amazon.com/app-email
Make sure to enable third-party stores: Go to Settings -> Security -> check "unknown sources"
Install and register with your amazon account.
A more options are to use BrainApp or Tablified Market HD

OG Youtube Downloader apk

Hey guys I did some digging around and found this nice little app. Og YouTube downloader.For those people out there who want to be able to download videos straight on your android device. Works on all devices that I know of.
Here's the link to where I found it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2213945
Obviously i didnt make this app. Credit goes to Osama Ghareeb for hacking up the app and making this possible.
I tested this app on my n4 and it does indeed work.
I do not provide support for any issues you may or may not have. Please direct your questions by following the link I provided.
Credit goes out to CraftyCreature for finding another YouTube downloader which works perfectly. You can find the app here.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ytdownloader/
I also uploaded the app here too if you get too lazy to go to the actual site. Lol
As always I, OsamaGhareeb, nor anyone is responsible if this app blows up your phone, kills your family or burns down your house.
Without further or do..here's the app guys. Enjoy
Note*
Any version after v1 og youtube will be in fact called just youtube.apk for now one. That means you guys will have to install this app as a system/app. You will need to delete the original youtube apk and paste the new one in its place. Set permissions to rwx r r, save and reboot.
Works great many thanks! Wish it had a download as mp3 only option then it would be perfect.
Why does it ask me to sign in through ogyoutube downloader is it trying to steal my information...

The same could be said when you log in to use Google play, Google music, maps, YouTube etc.. Why are you surprised when you have known they ask you to login into their apps.
Edit: I will update the app from time to time or whenever the dev updates it himself. I will provide an updated link as well.
Thanks for the awesome app

Not surprised at all just saying I'd like the official YouTube app to ask for my login.. I just don't get why a simple app to download YouTube videos would require me to log in after I'm already logged into YouTube. Don't take this offensively. I just take my Google account serious. I purchase many apps and don't want my account hacked. Thanks for sharing the developers app though.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Its the same YouTube app from Google. Its just been hacked to allow you to download videos onto your android device. No worries. You could always use lucky patcher to modify permissions if you feel the need to be totally safe.
Way better than tubeMate. Simple and easy to use. Thanks.

Youtube Download Android
Hi, thanks for the discussion and hints to cool apps. But I think I stick to tubebeam.com, I can browse videos and download within my Android browser (and no need to install something obscure )

What's New?
I've looked through it, and from what I can tell, it has some sort of additions related to the new functionality for restricting user access to Google Play. I suspect this is used in multi-user situations, where the primary user doesn't want secondary ones to be able to install things, but I haven't been able to confirm it just yet on the Nexus 7. Maybe there is a new menu that shows up in Android 4.3...
Another theory proposed by commenter Markus is that it's possible that this new functionality is meant for restricting Play Store's usage on devices that aren't licensed to use it and don't come with it pre-installed, which would... suck, though I don't see how Google could enforce it.
There is a new Activity called com.google.android.finsky.activities.AccessRestrictedActivity and this related new string:
<string name="limited_user_text">"You don't have permission to use Google Play Store."</string>
That's about it based on a quick teardown but if you notice anything else, please drop us a line below.
