I've released this here first and made it available outside the market so all the non-US users can get their hands on it. I will hold off a few days and see how things go with this version.
I also want to thank the community for helping me fix some of the issues that I still had with it.
Cheers,
John

Just want to know
Is this version stable?

For those that purchased via this link; how can we expect to recieve updates? I lack patience and if theres anyway I can get it prior I will but this will make it difficult to get updates via the market.

I've been using it like crazy to make sure it works.

Purchased, and loving it. All the bugs I found in the demo are fixed, and it even goes to the top screen when you hit the home button like regular home. Will let you know if I find any new bugs.

Update via market may not work if you buy it early with this link, but since TBM can see who purchased it, he can send them the new versions as they come out. Maybe even betas for this app (and possibly other apps...? <_< lol) But you get my point.

one more thing
do themes work on this version?

Yes, I can send emails to users who subscribe to emails durring purchase when a new version comes out. If you use up all your downloads, I can also extend them.

Hmmm decisions decisions. I want this App so much but not sure whether to wait for the Market or not. Would be ALOT easier updating wise to wait.

How long before market version?

If the people who purchase it outside the market don't find any show stoppers by Monday, I'll upload it Monday night (US)

If we buy it now, we cant get OTA updates unless we repurchase the Market version?

Where would we subscribe at? Is there a link on your website?

i think when you do the google checkout you can subscribe to emails from him- haven't bought it yet- still restoring everything after my wipe but will soon after i have back everything up!

As awesome as this app is, I really don't want to buy it outside of the Market... please upload this soon. Why even wait till Monday? Honestly, the faster you get it out, the better. Even if there are bugs, I'd still buy it today.

I agree with the above poster. I'd buy it tonight if it were on Market. This way I could get OTA updates. I beggeth!

I'm a little gun shy right now. I want to make sure I don't blow it with a huge bug.

Yeah, you could add some auto-update code that downloads an apk from your website to it. That (along with theming) would be a welcome feature.

GV invitation anyone?

So, I've been waiting for months and months, and really would love to use the Google Voice thing on my G1. Never used Grand Central.
The Google people seem way too slow and love to tease
Anyone can help? I'd appreciate very much..
TIA...
As of right now, I've not seen an option to invite folks. I got mine a few days ago via signing up on the Google Voice site. It'd been about a month or two since I had last signed up to test it. I've had numerous folks asking me for an invite, but unlike Gmail, I've not seen an invite feature. Guess you just have to be patient until Google picks you.
I'm a GC/GV beta tester, and one of the option's it shows in the control panel is Tell A Friend. I've never used it, and it's not very descript at all. I don't know if this feature will get you an immediate acct or just have you sign up to be notified whenever it does go out beta. I'll be glad to give it a try if want. Shoot me a private message msg here on XDA with your email address. It's worth a shot I guess.
where are you seeing that?
Been a GC/GV bet bunny since GC popped into existence. Never seen that option to "tell a friend". Maybe I don't really have any friends? Or maybe its new? where are you seeing that, under Settings?
I was one of the first to sign up and I got mine a couple weeks ago, it doesn't appear that I have any invites to share but here is the link from Google.

Thanks a lot. I'll send you a PM. Whether it works or not, I do appreciate your help.
I tried to register for invites (2-3 times maybe, since March or so, with different email IDs) and now it's July and I still got none from Google!
use a @gmail.com id for ur email, they usally give gmail people it first i didnt get one yet though.

Yes I did... At least 2 different @gmail addresses... But 4-5 months is a bit long time and kind of frustrating... Esp. it could be very useful for my line of work (if the features they promise are true) plus would make my G1 phone more of what it should be...
I just got mine after 2 weeks

I'm in VoIP / 3G / satellite business and yes it's kind of a drug I guess. Especially I am addicted to my G1. I'll seek professional help, I swear.
I just got my invite on Thursday, applied back in March with a gmail address. I have been using PF Visual Voicemail and it's been great, but the Google service is clearly better for those us running most of our email/phone/messaging lives via Google. Hope you get your invite soon, it's definitely a winner!
Anyone know if a Google branded app will be released soon? The GV app is good, but I'd love to have another option as well.

A quick update:
So, this morning I finally received the official Google Voice invite from Google.
Now, imagine my absolute joy and relief, that after waiting for it since March (!) I click on the link in that email only to see
"Google Voice is not available in your country.
Thanks for visiting Google Voice. We're not yet open for users outside the US, but are planning to expand our service to additional countries in the future. "

Last.fm 1.6.6

Since a lot of people come here looking for the latest last.fm APK, I've decided to keep it up to date on the first post.
Please note, that Last.fm service is not free any more outside US, UK, and Germany.
For full changelog, see the following page http://bit.ly/lastfm-android
You can find older versions as well as patched version (to run outside US, UK, and Germany) of the app here http://www.csmarshal.com/android/ (provided by midafaya).
Thanks for the heads up, sounds great. Congrats on 400 posts

Thanks! What a weird day, I've hit 600 in CMS Made Simple forums today and just like here, I didn't notice it
Can someone please attach the APK? Thanks!
Up for the APK... can't find in market...
Here you go...
edit
too late............
Looks like last.fm blocks traffic from norway or something. Got the comminication error in the previous version and was hoping that 1.1 would solve the problem, it did not .
Anyways, thanks a bunch for providing the APK
I think they've made it paid for everyone outside UK or something.

Nope. Due to licensing issues it isn't available outside of a very select list of countries. These include, the US, UK, Germany, and several others that I don't remember

It can be coincidence, but my app started working after i paid for a subscription at last.fm. I did not however try to stream music before i paid. Foolish i have to admit
i died try, didnt work before, worked after, might even upgrade my 3g speed cuz of this ^^
I think they should at least publish the apk file on their homepage for paying customers even though outside the countries listed before.
Thanx for posting the apk file!
Cheers, Håkan
I agree with you, but I think that's what XDA is great for

All you should need is a user account. Their servers might be down.
There's actually a newer version now, but that's besides the point.
Last.fm is only free in the UK (and also Germany, I think). I see you're from the states, so it won't work. And I'm not even sure if it will work on Android phone if you get a subscription.

[Q] ROM Manager premium problem-how do i contact app dev?

I bought ROM manager premium through the paypal link in the app. Now that i've moved back to the N1 from the NS (i bought it when i was on the NS), i don't see any way to activate premium features without paying again. am i missing something?

Can you copy your TB backup or whole sd card from the s to n sd card so the n sees those apps and knows you have rom mgr

You can probably also get his email by clicking on 'Send email to the developer'.
Actually, just checked, you don't even have to click on it. His email is right there on the page.
You know every app on the Market has the developer's email, right?

yeah i knew about that, but i'm still getting used to the new market layout (that, and a brain fart). I tried the website but it looks like it's no longer up. thanks again everyone!
Now i feel really dumb, esp. since i've gotten help from other app devs the same way in the past.
Sorry, I just re-read my message and it sounds kind of snarky. Don't feel bad for forgetting about that, everyone has brain farts.

thanks for the apology, but i didn't take it that way.
Honestly, after seeing your response the first time, I just felt so dumb. I didn't get the app from the market, but I should've known to check there anyway.
dude doesn't respond to tweets or emails. Starting to piss me off.
if i would have known trying to save 1 dollar was gonna cause me this much headache.....
join the crowd
never got a response
now use amon_ra
I have the exact same problem. I tried to contact him by email but he does not reply. Will try to contact him via Twitter.
It really pisses me off.
Just wanted to see if this got rectified? I recently did the reverse of the OP. Switched from the Nexus One up to the Nexus S. Premium isn't showing up on the NS.
nope. I just won't support the dev anymore. if one really wants to pay for this app, go thru the market. the dollar isn't worth the headache.
also waiting for response
i also buyed via Paypal cause i dont have a credit card (Market only accept Credit-card)
i changed rom and cannot activat premium features
will try to get money back from paypal (45days!)
hope he will response in next few days
greetings
If it were me, I would find alternative means of getting the software. You already paid for the license. If the dev don't wanna support his own product, either don't use it, or find another place to download it. There are many places to obtain android apps.
I don't like spreading this because I support the developers and truly appreciate the work they do. But I also don't like to see ppl cheated out of their money whether it was intentional or not. I'll tell you how to get that app from the market without paying. Just shoot me a pm.
Sent from my Motorola Olympus
I am another person who bought via PayPal, thinking it would save me $1 and put more $ in the developers pocket rather than the Android market taking it. I originally purchased it back in January 2011 and now cannot get my new device to show that it is the premium version without purchasing on the Android Market... Did anyone find a solution to this or get a reply from Koush?

You won't be getting any junk mail. :angel:
My signature would identify me as representing whohas.it, but I'll need 7 more posts before I can set that up.
Sign up information isn't shared, sold, etc. Yes, lots of sites/services say that, only some mean it. We're in the latter camp.
We haven't even sent out any housekeeping emails at this point, and likely won't until the Android mobile app is ready (soon hopefully).
And to other questions on the thread about whether whohas.it is monitoring the US play store only, the answer is yes. We have plans to add international versions of our service in the future, but we're not there yet. First quarter of 2013 is the current target, but that is by no means carved in stone.
I'm happy to answer any other questions if there are any.

[Request] 6tindr 1.2 xap

Hey,
I am really enjoying Rudy Huyn's genius Tinder client 6tindr since he published it, but I didn't catch the last update before it was pulled tonight.
Is there anybody here who has got the update installed on a Samsung device? This would be really cool, as probably a lot of people like Tinder and want the new features!
If any doubt about posting this here or any help is needed with getting your hands on the app's files, feel free to contact via personal message.
Thanks,

Because I never had 6tindr to begin with!

It needs some work... but some dude developed it and posted the source all for free, so it's hard to complain. One thing I don't like is that he used a third party binary library in it. Maybe that can be written out in the future. But all the logic is there and I think the library would function without the telerik libraries.
Tinder is offering Rudy to talk now. Lets hope this will end positively for us

Download link at the bottom, but says XAP file is invalid :/
That other tinder app is complete crap and crashes every third picture.
I'd request this xap not to be spread around. Tinder is providing a service and they have the right to lock out other apps. But they are showing signs to work together with Rudy to bring us tinder on Windows Phone so I think the best way to show them we appreciate their willingness to work with the community to respect their decission of preventing the app to be spread.

Yes, they're encrypted. You could install it from an SD card, but that still requires getting a decryption key for the xap from the store. The store won't give them out for apps that aren't listed.
