Anyone know what happened to weatherbug? I was re-installing some apps and cannot find Weatherbug. It was an app that I actually made use of on a day to day basis.
Sometimes apps leave the market for various reasons, either the author no longer wished to distribute the app [in that manner], or it in some way violated or was perceived to violate the google TOS. Because of this, if you are planning to wipe your phone, it is a good idea to make a backup of all apps you don't want to lose.

Found it odd that it would be removed after having an update just last month. I had done a backup using nandbackup as well as using the one that is built into Astro. I'm at work and the backups are at home, moved them off the SD to my computer. Was hoping to get it installed after updating to the newest JF build.
Maybe they're just prepping a new version compatible with the 1.5 release?
Their site doesn't seem to indicate that they've taken it offline:
http://weather.weatherbug.com/mobile/android.html
I didn't realize there was a recent update - I would've grabbed it. I'm on 1.0.498.

hopefully thats the reason why its gone from the market.
I love weatherbug, but its still a bit buggy especially in terms of the temperature in the notification bar.

I would think they would keep the original version for those that have not upgraded and release a 1.5 update separate. I did not have a problem running it on the Haykuro 1.5 version I installed prior to updating to the JF/LucidREM update.
ok..ok..I am not crazy then
I tried to look for it yesterday and I guess it was all in vain. I do hope if comes back. It worked ok for me on the 1.5 versions.
It worked for me on Haykuro's 1.5HR3 as well, but remember - these guys are doing testing against the official releases, and they're probably testing in a lot more depth than we are. Could be they found something, and decided to push out one app that's compatible with both 1.1 and 1.5.
Just a hunch. I'm thinking if they willingly removed Weatherbug from the market they'd have removed that page from their website as well.
They released weatherbug elite on the iphone so maybe they're getting ready for this on android. the elite is 99 cents tho
ok
I want
Weather bug....the loon misses ya!
I will pay.
I ran Weatherbug earlier today (I use it almost everyday) and the ad banner at the top was about Weatherbug Elite. I'm guessing they pulled the free app, which is beta (I believe), so that we can all pay for the Elite version. Yay!... not.
Well, I hope that means they will take off the ad banner. It was a little annoying.
Can someone post the .apk for those who don't have (and want) Weatherbug (beta)?
yes i really want this please!
It's back! I just downloaded it!

It worked for me too, but as soon as I would power on the phone I would get a force close from WeatherBug (without opening the app). After that, everything runs smoothly.
So, not like it's a huge inconvenience, but maybe that will be addressed.
Weatherbug was in BETA release. I looked on the market and the BETA has been removed but there is a free version there which works just fine on JFv1.5
Hell yeah.
Works nicely on jf 1.5
Never knew how much I would miss those #'s in th top left
"Sigh"
I'm good...I'm good!
I just want to spank them and tell them to never leave me again
I don't see anything that would indicate a paid-for version - just looks like regular ole' WB to me.
Is it 1.0.774 that you guys got as well?
I am running leaked 2.1. I know, i regret it immensely and kick myself in the head when I see the N1 launcher ported flawlessly to the eris with root.
Anyway, I was downloading torrents with Torrent-fu and I hit home and it gave me a notification screen saying "This beta will expire in 2 days". I don't think it was a reference to the program I was using, and I can't think of any programs I'm using in beta at all.
I'm afraid the leak could expire and I would be stuck with a useless phone and stuck sending in $100 to insurion to fix a problem I created by installing the ****ty leaked ROM instead of just waiting like 4 days more for root.
Sorry if I'm rambling, just a bit drunk and worried.

Do you have Astro file manager installed? If so, its that program telling you this. Others have reported it. I guess they say it usually means they have an updated version on the way. I would check out androzip. Same stuff but better
dont be afraid
Astro file manager 2.2.4 will expired at 2010-03-31, not the android system
This has nothing to do with development, thread moved.

Hey guys I'm really having a hard time making double letters in this new version, it just doesn't seem to work. Old one worked fine before it expired. Any ideas??
I just tried some words with double letters and like Vince its not working well.
after playing around with it for a few found that it seems like the program is not tracking correctly. I have tried the Speed VS Accuracy and it didn't help much if any. I my have to give shapewriter a shot.

So, what you need to do is go into your settings>Language & Keyboard and make sure the box next to Swype is checked. If there is no box there, then the install did not work right. Once you have the box checked, then go into a program that you would be able to type something (text, email, browser, etc) and long press in the box you want to type in. It will come up with some options like copy/paste/input selection. You'll want to choose input selection and then you should be able to choose Swype as your go to keyboard. Hope this helps...
Just thought I'd pop in here and say that if you go to beta.swype.com, you can get into the public beta for the next couple days. This'll let you get the actual current updates.

It's because they haven't released it yet. They have several BETA versions that they're testing. This is why you can't find it on the market. There is ONE version out there with a license that won't give you a "trial period ended" error, but few have it. This is for testing purposes, though it may be annoying for you and others, this is what will make it such great app, extensive testing. It should be soon...looks like they've almost got it nailed down.
FWIW, none of us are even supposed to have this app...be thankful you've gotten to play with it.
I have swype with a license that won't expire. I downloaded it from another thread in the eris forums. Awesome app.

Yup, it's out there, no doubt about that. And it's awesome, no one's gonna argue with that.
Team Black Hat has released an app in Market with a new Tranquility and a Deodexed updated Froyo. You can download such as Rom Manager from within the app.
I downloaded but I am going to wait on a changelog before I flash it.

Are you sure you downloaded 2.3.5 RC? Or it installed correctly?
I just installed successfully. Still on 2.3.13.
Don't see any differences so far. I am curious about the changes too.
Edit: Just noticed Froyo 2.3.15 there. Downloading now!

Oooooh a new leak! Let us know if you notice anything new.
Ok, Froyo 2.3.15 and Tranquility 2.3.5rc installed smoothly, but when I tried applying Onix Gala X theme from ROM Manager, I got stuck at the M logo. Battery pull solved the issue. So I'll try applying the theme manually.
I haven't noticed anything new so far from the short time I spent browsing around the phone. I'm dying to see the change logs lol!
Edit: manually installing Gala X theme worked =)
Edit2: I'm not sure if it was true for 2.3.13, but in this one Flash shows up in the Market.
In the market for 2.3.13 too, noticed it today .

Okay... Not trying to sound like an ass but this has been eating away at me for a good twelve hours or so....
You are paying for an app. Cool idea in my opinion.
You are also paying for access to mods. Not unheard of.(supporting is good)
Lots of hype for access to something no one else has.
Using the hype to, in a way, make people donate for your work that is kind of iffy. I like what those guys are trying to do but I do not like how they are doing it. I just can't quite hit on the point I am trying to make but I feel something scetchy is going on here. Thus, I go back to... Paying for an app that creates access to what they are making. Cool idea in my opinion.
God I hope I don't get flamed to hard for this.... Trying hard not to be a Debbie Downer.
Those that are satisfied with the Tranquility roms will likely donate. Although I do believe the leak itself should be available to the general public.

Dude I understand you have your opinion, but if you don't want to support, then you may just have to wait for someone else to find a leak source in one of the MOST locked down firmware arenas for android, TBH is doing an amazing job! THREE 2.2 updates before motosuck released its first!? They deserve the two bucks for the app. Mind you this is coming from a person who has only purchased one app for his droid x; the one we are talking about. Besides with all the C&D motosuck has been throwing around this is a resonable alternative to insure we get the content we want. OH! And not to mention tranquility is one of the best alternatives to motoblur out right now, $2 seems like a VERY small price to pay for no hassle dl's and quick update potential. Thank you again Team Black Hat for all the hard work! I see kernel's in the near future.... Wahoo!

So instead of charging for something that might possibly be construed as _his_ work, he's really just charging for Motorola's software that he paid someone to steal from them. Classy move.

Uninstalled when prompted after receiving June security patch today. Went to link I received when paying for it on their website and re-downloaded to get the latest version, now working fine again.
Is the app you refer to the same as Package Disabler Pro? I bought it a while ago, then it disappeared and now it's back in the Play store with a different name?
Now the one I can find is this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.elmklmsamsung.batteryaddon
That one.

I would try contacting the developer with your email address and product key. I'm sure they will be able to provide you a download link for the latest version. My download link says it only works 3 times, so I only have one download left.

We are still on Oreo on mine and the wife's VZW branded Note 9s.
We've been using Package Disabler Pro, Orchard from the developers web site, not the Play Store, since April 8. We get no indication of any system updates.
We were using AdHell3, before that.

I've read of issues with the Play Store version.
I would purchase from their web site, directly.
There you can ask the Developer if it will work for your phone version.
The Samsung page is currently "under maintenance".
https://www.packagedisabler.com/packageinfo/
Mine isn't working either since the latest update for the Verizon Note 9. I purchased it direct from the website and used the last download. Also save one of your downloads(apks) in Google drive or something. When they send an update out it will update the app. I did hear from the developers and they said they are working on a fix.
Hello everybody,
I've got the same problem. with July update and app version 15
Error Message : failKLM: Error code unknown 203, status fail
I cannot find anymore the app on Google Play (unless I access it though direct link).
Do we think the developer is not supporting this app anymore?
Anyone has a solution?
many thanks
P3dr0
Im using S10+ and cannot using Package Disable Pro anymore
Since the last update I am having problems as well. I had purchased this a long time ago on an older samsung device and it stopped working. Switched to bk disabler and then that didnt work on the Note 9. So went back to this app.
It seems the dev pulls the app from the store and then publishes a new one. The only way to fix this in the past was to buy the new version.
Seems like a scheme to make more money, but the apps work.
I don't think it is the phone update that caused it. The license-keys used, and these dev purchases from Samsung, have expired on mass possibly because they were misused or even meant to expire after period of time. Dev knows all this and you should be aware that you purchased essentially a subscription, even though you think you paid one purchase, and one that you never know when it will expire. Maybe in 6, maybe 8, and maybe 3 months. If the whole set up was above board then you would not have been forced to repurchase the same item again and again. There's no excuse, no supporting David v Goliath fight, it has become a milking operation.

This is the CORRECT answer. It's money grab.
I posted this in another forum but this is how it works:
TLDR:
Many, if not most, of Samsung-specific 'Package Disablers' violate Samsung's license permissions. As such, they are routinely removed from Google Play or stop working altogether because of this violation.
Explanation:
To provide clarity, many, if NOT most, of these Samsung-specific 'Package Disablers' use KNOX specific APIs to allow you the ability to disable applications.
It's a clever use of an existing pipeline; provide end-users with low level device functionality provided ONLY to Knox-approved Developers or Companies.
To develop and access Knox, you need a development key.
To activate your Knox-related application, you need a license.
For each device your Knox-related application is installed on, you need another license.
So if you want to use Knox or its related APIs, you have to pay.
In the past, there were many creatives ways around these limitations but Samsung has become MORE and MORE stringent on the qualifications required to use Knox and routinely check-ins on how Knox is being used. Violate them and you lose access.
I had this issue. I emailed them and this is what I got.I bought the one from their site and have not had a problem since.
Hi,
Package disablers prior to version 15 are blocked by Samsung in play store. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.elmklmsamsung.batteryaddon&hl=en
We don't want to create new package disabler apps. Samsung blocks our play store app to promote their bloatwares so we are left with no options. If samsung doesn’t block the play store app, it should keep working. Another option is to buy app from our website that is never blocked by Samsung. http://www.packagedisabler.com/
Regards,
PD Team
UPDATE:
OK mine gave me the error. They said they are working on the problem right now.
Dear User,
We are working to resolve the issue.
Regards,
PD Team
Use adb for disable whatever . Find how on xda! :good:
I re downloaded my licensed version from their website and reinstalled. It will not complete their license check when opening the app.
All was well until the last update to my note 9, then it quit working altogether. I'm inclined to believe the posts above that explain shady access to security features, which got blocked in the update.
Contacted the (usually responsive) developer and was told they are working on it, but that was over a week ago.
