Quickoffice / DocumentsToGo

Has anyone tried either - or, preferably, both - of these applications? I'm looking for something that can open Office files on the Android... How to they compare?
On another note - does anyone not in the US have experience in buying them? I would like to be legal and buy them - however, they don't show up on the Marketplace - I'm assuming that it's because I have an (unlocked) UK Phone with a Hungarian SIM card...
Thanks for the comments!

Get Documents To Go. Way better.
In QuickOffice, you can't edit your documents!

Aha!
An excellent point there - Documents to go it is
Now if someone can just point me in the direction of "how to buy - and I do actually want to buy - it when your marketplace doesn't support paid apps"

so you seriously want to pay the $20 for it?

Yeah $20 is pretty steep. Thats whats held me off.

had it been $10..i would have thought about it..$20 is way too much IMO

Want?
No, not really.
Will?
Yeah, as it's the only way I can actually see the attachments that people send me.
Can?
Nope. Paid apps don't show up on my market - it's either my UK phone, or my Hungarian SIM :S

I got DocumentsToGo... it's really cheap considering it is the only app that can do what it does.

i bet someone probably already shared it with the world on some "site"

I wasn't going to, but I did. True, it is the standard version now, but they promised a discount on upgrades. That's why I pulled the trigger and bought it. Their .pdf reader on Palm was nice.
I've used their Documents to Go for 6 years now. I was so grateful they came out with the Android version!

Documents to Go has been updated to version 2.0
100 times faster than before!

Aaand a free version for editing XLS(X) and DOC(X)!

I've been using Doc2go and there is nothing like it. Its a shame that google has yet to release a google documents app with offline support for android. It could have been a killer feature. OpenOffice.org should have released an app also, to get people familiar with their free office solutions on the desktop. I just read today that the thinkfree free office solution for the phone is coming out.

Thanks for posting this!
As I always do with big companies like this, I checked Amazon's website to see if they truly had released an app and someone wasn't just playing with us in a phishing scam. It's legit, it's real, and here's the link:
Amazon's Press Release
I'm not a huge Amazon user, but I do shop there from time to time. This is really a great way to reach customers. Kudos to Amazon!
Now if they could just make a Kindle reader for Android...

Could you (or anyone else for that matter) please post the apk file?
I've just searched for it here in the spanish android market and can't find it.
I use to buy stuff from Amazon and an app like this would be great.

It's a tool some italian guys developed before Google opened the Italian market for paid apps so they could buy in the US one.
Besides allowing that, it comes with an added benefit and it's that it allows getting any app from the US market, even if it isn't available for the UK, Spanish or any other market.
The app requires root, but that I suppose won't be a problem for any xda user. You can get it here

Amazon.com app
Just found out about this app and it sounds really interesting. Only issue is it's not available on the market in the UK (at least... I assume it isn't. I can't find it...)
Would someone be able to upload the apk? It's a free app so I'm not stealing it or anything
And I understand it probably only searches amazon.com, but I'm really not that bothered about that

There's already discussion on this. It was the third result when I searched: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544239

Now i thinking to put it on Hero.
http://www.igomyway.com/android/en/

dint find it on the market. nor on youtube

The GUI looks very clear and nice. But I wonder that when it is released and What maps does it have? I live in Vietnam and I don't know does it have Vietnam's map?

Looks very nice, but where can I download/buy the app?

U need to buy an application...

Where can I buy the app. We don`t have access to paid apps in Norway.

Looks good, but can't find how to buy it?

mail has been send. i am waiting for answer .

Currently you cannot buy it separately, it is only available with "Samsung Galaxy Spica" as a free addition at a Hungarian mobile operator. Hopefully they will release as an individual product soon. I have no more info. http://www.igomyway.com/android/en/faq.html
There is not any info about required android version either.

as long as someone can get that kit... i think we can modify it to work in any language with any map.

any news on this?

MOD EDIT

How do you know that's for the Android?

I suggest you delete this post before you get a ban for promoting warez and then take a very good good look at the forum rules, especially #6!

The link there now is an apk, originally it was just a zip file...

MOD EDIT
helping with warez is also not allowed here on this form

installed the .apk. copied on the microSD a winmo kit without the .exe. it says "program database not found". but if the folder is named something other than "igo" it says please insert SD card.

It's .apk dude.. it can be for android only...
Hope it gets cracked. Sorry if I'm breaking the rules (but I don't think I will because I'm just saying my opinion and not providing any links) ... WAREZ FOR THE WIN!

And you wonder why there's only a fraction of the number of developers for Android as there are for iPhone....
Why not try supporting developers, buy their software, and show your support? Maybe then we'll get quality apps.

there is no wondering for that. The reason is because the Iphone was out first and has more of the market...duh. The apps on the Iphone get warez too...you make it sound like only android apps only get warez.

Share MarketAccess SIM Codes?

Hey guys, what about we share our SIM country codes, used in MarketAccess, so we can test and see the apps for each country?
I'm looking for an UK code, since my phone is from UK.
My SIM is 72431 (from Brazil, telco: Oi)
Share!
Thanks.

you don't need any of that
just use App Brain
AppBrain App Market
Apk: http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.apps...demonkeys.apps
This app is almost a must have, great for recoveries, switching ROMs, or simply a way to manage install/uninstall all the apps from the PC
more info http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=765081

Errr... AFAIK AppBrain does not give you access to paid apps if you are in a non supported country, like ALL minus 12 or 15 countries.
But thanks anyway.

If you have root you can use market enabler to access paid apps in other countries
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

Why people just don't read the question before posting answers anymore?
Jeez...

all the online Apps Stores can get you access to paid apps when you access it from the PC
once added to the gmail account, you can download it regardless of country restriction
That's why AppBrain and many other ones works
it's only the stock Android Market, that have such restrictions

Really?
And how do I purchase and pay for an app via AppBrain?
I can't see how. Oh, and they say on the website that you can't purchase directly from them.
Please, explain me how.... using AppBrain.
Thanks.

Great, thanks for the codes.
Anyone else?
Oh, I tried and looked several times in AppBrain, there really is no option to purchase anything directly from the PC via "my google account".
Not that I could find.
Thanks, and keep the codes comming!

where would i find this SIM code for you? I looked in application market settings and in about phone but i couldn't see it

[APP] WP7 3mktPlace v0.4

Hello,
I would like to share a windows app, kind of a parallel market for desktop that allows you to download almost any WP7 application, and convert it automatically into .XAP file.
But I don't know if it is ok with moderation so please mods let me know about it before I upload the .zip file.
Thanks.

sounds like a great way to finally be able to install the free netflix app, even if it is not listed in your marketplace...

I don't think so.

This is a PAID APP and therefore NOT OK to post here.
Posting a link to a place where users can BUY the app IS OK.

This software lets you download any app from the market, including paid ones. Hence it is not allowed on xda.

Nope, this is a free app, but as said above, it can download any app, free or not, and convert it into .XAP.
So it can be considered as warez but it is not really one actually. Since it's able to grab free apps in .XAP file system, I though it was an interesting tool for finding rare .XAP apps...
But that is why I waited before posting any link, as the status of this app is rather vague, like in the grey area...

I think it's a free app. I've tried and works well.
Unfortunately, it seems it works for free and paid apps (honestly, haven't tried it, but read that it is possible). It is a pitty, because it won't be allowed on XDA and it is a great way to avoid all the trouble to get a live ID.

Well couldn't somebody mod it to only access the free ones?
There is also another software that does the same as this, both are by different devs. Would be great if we had a XDA dev work on it and release it with better/more stable functions.

That would be a great step for HD2 users.

not hard at all to activate
other than the activation code from Microsoft being location based, it is not hard what so ever to have WP7 be fully fuctional. i have zero issues down loading/accessing anything from windows live, market, zune. all the info to do so is here on the forums, and a 5 min call to Microsoft customer service. There was only two specific questions they asked 1. are u in the US, 2. what is the phone Brand. having all of the software set up properly, then entering that code gives full use. when i plugged into the Zune software after it recognized it as HD7....................been testing the crap out of it since. zero problems. take your time....put all the software in the right order, call to get a code...done....
sorry if the Microsoft activation code does not work for you based on location.. that blows

please be realistic
it is considered as cracking app to me, definitely not allowed here, period. It is everywhere in the Chinese forums, where they share all kind of cracked paid apps.

Yes, there's no distinction between free and paid apps. I've download to alternative browsers, not knowing they were paid.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=908293 - it seems to do the same thing, but only displays free apps. Should be sticky here.
Either way, bored of WP7, back to Android!

tried so many games and apps
apps are fine ! but no game is working except NFS !!!

Actually it only downloads the free apps aswell as trials, it doesnt directly download any full apps. What it does do also is edit the trial so its full on supported titles.

Well I wouldn't consider removing the trial limitation to full legal since its then a full app. Anyway carry on. Don't say no one told ya
