Roam Control is off the Market, but now has a dedicated website

Update 3:
UPDATE from the developer (MrGreg -- post link):
The developer, MrGreg, has created a dedicated website for the distribution of Roam Control. The application will remain off the Google Market for now.
Relevant blog posts from the new website: http://www.roamctrl.com/
Jan-03-2011:
Roam Control 2.1.0 is now available. It contains the same functionality as versions 2.0.0 (which were previously available in the market), but it was updated to be compatible with the new servers. Please see the download page for links.
Jan-01-2011:
Roam Control for Android is now available through this website! We appreciate your patience while we transitioned from the Android Market to our own site. The website is still under construction, but we will be adding more information in the coming weeks.
Many things have been implemented from the ground up (PayPal integration, licensing server, etc), so please let us know if you encounter any issues or have any suggestions. Thanks!!

Update 2:
It once again appears that the application was pulled off the Market by Google.
UPDATE from the developer (MrGreg -- post link):
NOTE (12/21/2011): I'm sorry to report that Roam Control has pulled from the market yet again. It's the same story as before...I received an automated email from Google that did not provide any specifics on why the app was pulled. I have tried to appeal the decision numerous times, but I have yet to receive any type of acknowledgement or response from the Android market team.
As a temporary solution for customers who have already purchased the app, the app can be downloaded here:
- For users who purchased the original app (version 1.7.0 or earlier), please use the version available here: LINK
- For users who purchased the new app (version 2.0.0.g2), please use the version available here: LINK
I'm obviously not going to put the app back on the market unless I get the go-ahead from Google. As an alternative, I will likely either make the app available through the Amazon Appstore or directly through this website. Please stay tuned for details.

Update 1:
UPDATE from the developer (MrGreg -- post link):
NOTE (12/05/2011): Roam Control has been re-published in the market!! I appreciate your patience while I worked to resolve the situation. I still have not received a response from Google indicating why the app was pulled from the market, so be aware that it's possible they may pull the new versions as well.
For users who already purchased the previous app, please use the version available here: LINK
For new users who have not yet purchased Roam Control, please use the version available here: LINK

Original post:
Just a FYI: Roam Control Website
Copied directly from the website linked above: said:
NOTE (11/29/2011): I received an email today from Google indicating that Roam Control was removed/suspended from the market. I did not receive any explanation, other than it was "due to a violation of the Developer Content Policy." I'm working on getting the app restored, however I've come to understand that Google is incredibly unresponsive in these situations. If I cannot reinstate the app, I will certainly make it available in some other fashion. To those who have already purchased the app, I certainly do not expect anyone to pay for it a second time. As a temporary measure, the latest version of the app can be downloaded here.

It looks as if the developer has made the application available at no cost as of right now.

It checks for license, so if you haven't purchased it already it won't work

Appreciate the heads up - for me, RoamControl is an essential app. Hopefully dev will patch it up with Google...

damn another app bites the dust. i feel bad for the dev he must have been making good money off this and now it will be twice as hard. hopefully google will resolve this

Roam control is mandatory for me. Hopefully the dev can get Google's ducks in a row and get it back in the market.

He should just sell the license direct from his own website via a paypal link.

I actually do want to give it away for free, I'm just using it to help support my family for now, I hope y'all can appreciate that.
The version that's linked on my website is the version that was pulled from the market, so it does still have the license check. I'm debating what to do at the moment...I wish Google would respond to my emails so I could make my decision. I appreciate your patience...

I sent you a couple of suggestions for this app a couple of months ago. Do you reply to all suggestions you receive??? I am just wondering if you received them at all and/or if I should resend.

Also, all proceeds (after fees) for 12/5, 12/6, and 12/7 (2PM CST cutoff) will be donated to one or more needy families in MN school district 621. One family is a single mom who is supporting two kids while dealing with health issues. Thank you for your generosity and kindness during this holiday season! I will provide the total amount donated, along with statements upon request.

i'm not sure if i quite understand what this app does versus me manually changing my roaming settings. Can someone explain for me? thanks !

[Q] Only Free Apps in Play Store

I have just received my M8 today and I have set it up fine however I can only see free apps in the Play Store - there are no paid apps anywhere.
Does anyone have a fix for this?
OT: How do you screenshot on an M8?

Screenshot press vol down and power at same time and hold.
Play store just select a category then top selling from the tabs above.

This is what I mean about the app store...

Do you have a payment method stored on your account? Never seen this before, but I would think that could be a possible cause.

I don't as of yet as my bank account is overdrawn and it won't let me add it. I also thought this could be the reason.
I've got some money going into my account this morning so fingers crossed...

I highly doubt your account being overdrawn is an issue!

Well it wouldn't authorise my card until I had money in my account however I still can't see paid apps...

Well I can't see or even filter between free and paid apps when I do a search. I can however see Top Free, Top Grossing etc if I swipe from left to right, tap on Store Home, then tap on apps and then swipe left once and choose photography from the Categories list, then it shows all, free, paid, top grossing etc.
Sucks that it doesn't show those filters when you're doing it as a search.

I've spoken with Google Support and they said it's because I live on the Isle of Man. I didn't have this issue with my last phone and none of my friends have this issue but the rep I spoke with is confident that is the reason.

Nah I doubt that's the issue, I live in South Africa and I could still do payments etc And South Africa is usually one of the countries that completely lose out when it comes to things like that, heck we don't even have proper paypal support for example.

It probably is. In terms of technology, living in the Isle of Man might as well mean living in the middle of nowhere. It's a complete joke.
I replied to the email the Google Support rep sent me after my phone call:
I think I have to be honest here; the issue was last updated over a year ago. Why does it look like Google has given this issue such little attention?
The Isle of Man is a constituent of the United Kingdom so I don't see any issues...
I feel like I've been left out to be honest, all because of where I live. This shouldn't be an issue yet it is and I don't quite understand what barriers are in place to stop some residents of the Isle of Man from purchasing paid apps. Could you please let me know the reason for this? Or could you please put me in touch with someone who can?

Interesting, I wasn't aware of that though. Obviously the problem isn't just PCs or Tablets like they mentioned in the articles seeing as the phone for the OP also has this issue.
Silly stuff really.
Oh well, get on a PC, pop out that Tor browser and make google think you're in Finland. :cyclops:

I'm not really sure. Probably worth a shot.
I know using Tor can make google think you're from a different country than you're currently in but I don't know if the payment you'll do will work or not. You'll of course have to sign in to google and then buy it still, CC is probably on their system already.
Don't know if it'll work if you go through Tor(Let's say you're in the "UK" now "London") then signing up for a new google account and add your necessary info(Will credit card work still?) and then attempting to download it.
I haven't done it myself so I can't really confirm, haven't had this problem like you're having now but, who knows, it's maybe worth a shot.

it’s quite simple,
you hold down the power button for
a couple seconds and then you
press the home button. Make sure
you don’t hold down the Power
button for too long, or else you will
see the Power dialog. Hit THANKS If i helped

Yeah I think he already figured how to do the screenshots... :good:

Your best bet is the root the phone if you haven't done so already. Then install Xposed and this module. This has a function to unrestrict the Play store. Hopefully that will work.

Note that it will NOT allow you to download apps that are not offered in your country, or restricted by anything but your custom DPI.
Stated so in the article, but I suppose it won't hurt to have a look either way.

Package Disabler Pro Deleted from PlayStore?

I just did a clean install of 6.0.1 and restored all my apps from playstore, but then I noticed that package disabler pro did not install. Upon searching the playstore via the app then the website it says item not found.
So i proceeded to download the latest APK for it, it installed fine but then the icon is deleted/missing from my app drawer. I also notice that the app doesn't even show up in applications via the settings menu.
Any idea what's going on?

No longer seeing it as well! EZ Disabler (a copy I guess) is present, but not the original.. Wtf happened?

Same here. I installed yesterday, but wanted to contact the developer for a refund (I believe he has a 3 day refund policy). I was disappointed in the battery savings (i.e., none for me).

I emailed the developer for package disabler pro (Samsung) and he said it will be back up soon. This was 15 hours ago or so. No reason given why it was pulled.
hope it's back up really soon

It's only gone for a few devices it seems

You need to try EZ Package Disabler. It works perfectly! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hecorat.packagedisabler

FYI - if you email [email protected] and give them your invoice for the original purchase they'll refund it so you don't have to buy it twice. I did that yesterday and they refunded me in minutes.

Don't need that.
Just install the free version and automatically you stay with the pro version.
Your Google play account recognises you already had paid the app.

LG V30+ Oreo Rom

My Korean LG V30+ has just received and updated Android 8.0 Oreo , after I registered the testing event with Korean account.
I feel it smoother and better in the battery management.
I will try to check and give the comment later.

Thank you!
That's two pieces of good news today. European H930 being added to the bootloader unlock list and now Oreo rolling out.

That's awesome.
I tried a lot of stuff to get this to work without success...
Would you mind doing some sharing on how you did that?
(The signup proccess I am aware of, the quick help, the banner etc etc.)
But I get "not available in your country"... I have tried with VPNs etc without success.
(I have the South Korean version of the phone, even though I am based in sweden)
So I guess you've done something with your LG account or setup another account?

Please try to use OpenVPN connect as the image attached.
You must changed the region first, turnoff the LTE/ mobile signal, only using Wifi to register account or use LG account that you had → change to Korea, join event and accept the conditions (Using Google translator on another mobile for Korean). That's all.

Hm, might be stupid here. How do I load a profile like you did. Mine is completely empty.. Just the two links to supporting vpn services. I signed up on open VPN but can't find it.

Haiz. You must access the free VPN site as vpngate.net to get Korea VPN file. After that you add to OpenVPN connect.

About 02 weeks. Follow LG schedule they said that I need wait until the first of December. But as you know I've just gotten the update rom. I think they finish the test rom now and you will get it soon.

Did they send you a confirm email all in korean?

Display the company name of the contact that is calling you?

I use my phone for business.
I have thousand of people in my contacts.
I want to see caller's name and company before I pickup the phone.
iPhone can do this, how about Android?

phone>settings>callerid &spam. Google tries to provide the name of the caller if not in your contacts list. In the past I remember having choices as to what it used to obtain the callers information. I cant find that anymore.

So you want additional saved contact information to populate the caller ID screen? Nope, cant do that as much as Ive seen.

iphone can do this.
Samsung galaxy 8's phone app can do this.
But google pixel can't do this.
It is very weird.

There might be another contacts/phone app option in the play store that could display this information.

Thank you.
I already tried both of them.
Smart Notify is working if phone is not locked. If it is locked then full screen caller id come, than no callers's company info shown.
Call informer was the App i was using 4 years ago. I already tried it since i swicthed back to android.
Unfortunately it doesn't work with newest android phones. Like my Pixel 3 XL.
But it works great with Asus zenfone 3. Which has android 8.0.0
It would be great if there is an update to call informer.
