anyone has youtube downloader apk.
I really liked youtube downloader. i wiped my phone and lost it. its not on market and has been pulled from the site.. is there any way i can get it or a program that can do the same function. i really liked that program. HELP
http://www.mediafire.com/?u5my4uijzke
This is a free app so I hope I dont break any rule here!
thats odd Google pulled it...I swear I just downloaded an update for YouTubeDownloader...
its still on my G1...I dont use it much so i wont miss it...
Hi, I'm new to this stuff.
Can someone please help me on how to put this on my phone?
Does it have to be rooted? I would really appreciate it, i love this app and miss it very much.

The file i downloaded was .apk
But i just dont know what to do with it...
sorry, let me clearify... the file you download is called "com.isaacwaller.youtubedownloader.apk.jar"... this does no good on the phone to install so i decompressed it so now its "com.isaacwaller.youtubedownloader.apk"... yet this is a folder now and not a file.apk.... so putting it on the sd and using an app installer doesnt do much when its a folder with the name only saying .apk... i need a file.apk so i can use an app installer, right? or am i way off? Think maybe because i use a mac has anything to do with it??? or does it need to be a dev phone? my phone isnt "unlocked," and im running rc33
but to answer your question Rescue7 if you do have a the file "com.isaacwaller.youtubedownloader.apk" and not a folder like i have... all you need to do is put it onto your sd card, then run an app installer. if you use linda file manager it will give you an option... if not use the application installer that you can download via the market

Yeah I figured it out. I just plugged my phone into my laptop, put it in "Games and Applications." then used Discover Pro. But thanks anyways. ^^

Hmm well I'm using a PC. And I don't have a dev phone, or an unlocked phone. Just a regular G1. Well why dont u just give it a try? maybe it'll work??
JLO: you're either going to have to download it using firefox or use right click + save as in safari, otherwise osx think's a zip folder and tries to decompress it as it downloads, which results in the .jar file.
Here is your application
GO TO THIS WEBSITE AND IT IS THERE. AND TELL OTHER PEOPLE CAUSE I WANT TO SHARE THIS APP WITH OTHERS CAUSE IT IS THAT GOOD.

IN ORDER TO PUT IT ON YOUR PHONE YOU WILL NEED TO USE APPMANAGER WHICH IS FREE FROM THE ANDROID MARKET.
http://allshadow.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=5417
TRY IT OUT AND BE SURE TO SPREAD THE NEWS THAT IT IS FREE FOR DOWNLOAD AT THE FIRST LINK FOR ANYBODY WHO WANTS THE PROGRAM.
solution
just go to keepvid.com from your phone to download youtube videos onto your phone from your phone.
simply just go to the video you want to download on the browser then hit menu then go to url the url is now highlighted on ur phone copy it by using (hold down menu button then press C on your keyboard) not the big menu button on the outside of the phone the button next to the Z key on the keyboard then paste the link to keepvid.com using (menu then V) for paste then download the mp4 walla use a video player to play the video u just got from youtube

I just thought I'd point out that you don't have to use firefox or save as.
Just delete the jar off the end of the filename. It does this when downloading themes also. So far, I haven't had any issues just deleting the .jar.

Pulled from Marketplace. The developer still offers it for download here:
http://www.siriusapplications.com/ytd/
Ooops... seems it isn't available for DL on the website either. It was a free app, so I can just post my backed up apk file in here when I get home tonight.

Here ya go
beat me to it
Love this app thank you so much!!!
I believe I saw it on here before but tried searching and could not find anything. Does anybody have the settings for it? The second question is, why don't the rom builders put this feature in by default?
Becuase u can get apps in the market to do it for u. Download astro from the market, it allows you to dwnload any file. Check it out its great!
Thanks, I even had Astro on my phone before I started flashing all the time and totally forgot. Even though, i wasn't aware it allowed this either.
I used to download themes from my G1 and flash.... never using my computer.
Lately, on about 6 different themes i have not been able to download them. When it attempts, i get the message telling me not a supported type or something like that?
Anyone know what is causing this or how i can go back to d/loading from my g1?
Others get the same errors?
try getting astro or linda file manager off the market
Wow, solved.
When i got/paid root explorer i assumed i no longer needed astro. Did not realize this is what was allowing me to download files.
Interesting. Thank you.

yeah i keep astro around because of that reason, also i like how when i open astro it goes to my sdcard automatically so i like it for that too
so linda file manager works as well? I am reluctant to buy another file manager app (Root Explorer).... pretty sure I recall Astro having an end-date.
anyone know where I can download this app, i found it on the Androbin_R_ ROM.
Have you tried taking it from the ROM itself? Sometimes it works, sometimes not.
Just checked market, there is one called Custom Car Home,... any good?
Apparently Froyo has it built in,... try extarcting it from a Froyo ROM aswel,... Worth trying enit?

Thanks for taking the time to reply...
it is, but I am just not technically able enough to take it from the ROM,, i would not know where to start.....
Download the Rom you want.
Extract it on pc.
Navigate to system/app/
Copy the apk you want to your sdcard. I think it could be called carhome.apk.
Having the apk on your SD.
Open it with e.g. Linda file manager.
If it works with this Rom it installs fine.
Another way is using adb.
But that doesn't differ in what you get.

Yeah its not hard,....... XMASKX is bang on,....
Download the Rom you want...... Androbin
Extract it on pc...... Using WinZip/Winrar/7zip
Navigate to system/app/

Having the apk on your SD.
Open it with e.g. Linda file manager.... I don't know if that is free or not, an alternative is Astro File manager from the Market.

A side note,... In Settings --> Applications --> there is a tick box to allow install of applications from unknown sources, tick that.
thanks for that,,, i found it, and got it onto VillanRom6 but when I try and install it, it just will not run,,,
I have attached the app....
Thanks all

What does it say when you try,... Give error details, someone might be able to help you,... I haven't had much luck in the past to be honest.
When I try to download an apk from a different website, I get an error saying this file is not supported. Yes I have the non market installation checked.
If the website doesn't send the correct headers with the file them the phone doesn't realise it's an APK. Same happened on 2.1 normally on sites with download redirects.
Install astro to enable downloading apk files

I did that but still does not work :-(
Try using download crutch lite. Lets me download pretty much any type of file.
Is that market application ?
Last I knewit was taken from the market. Just Google it
That sucks I'll just have to wait till tomorrow, no pc.
Here it is if you dont want to look for it.
astro worked perfectly, thanks for the tip
