Does anyone have the tablet version of Flyscreen they can share(it's a free app). Doesn't show up on the G-Tab's market or any phone I have, didn't expect it too though. I found it on the online market, but don't have a device it will allow me to download to.

Hello,
I live in Poland and we still can't buy paid android apps, which really p*sses me off. Is there an alternative way to buy from the market? I don't want to use pirated software.
Pretty sure if you email the Dec of app you want they will work something out with you. Also try market enabler

Root phone, install Market Enabler which will allow your phone to pretend that it is in a different market (ie one with paid apps available). Works great. I am in Canada, which does not have paid apps yet, and use it to buy apps. This was the main reason I rooted my phone.
I live in Norway and we don't have access to paid apps yet.
I did install Market Enabler, and got access, but when I'm buying, after I've input credicard information, nothing happens. The phone tries to connect and eventually I get an errormessage that a connection could not be etablished (or something in that effect)
I chose Market Enabler 3 (beta) as I'm using a Hero ROM. (Old version does not work), and I choose o2 (de) as provider.
Any tips?
tried using Slideme, it is an alternative market that works outside of the android market.
Thanks for the replies! I rooted my phone finally (using flashrec) and by the way updated to some hero ROM (myhero-1.1.1 to be exact) and used Market Enabler. Works really well so far, I haven't had time to try to actually purchase anything yet, but I can see paid apps now.
I love the HTC Sense look and feel, but I there are some bugs that weren't present in the vanilla magic (skippy music, worse jabber integration, etc).
It's amazing how easy it is to root and flash your phone these days, I remember last time I was thinking about it the howto scared the hell out of me. And I'm a developer (just a lazy one).
Just purchased my frist app on Android Market
There was one issue, maybe this will help someone: When I entered my credit card details on my phone it didn't work - there was some kind of server error. I had to go to google checkout using browser on my computer, enter my cc details and then I was able to buy apps off android market.

Try setting up your Google checkout account using a PC based browser. Once you do that you should only be shown the price and have to confirm to buy.
That worked for me.

i did this and it doesn't work in Sweden...
I recently just got a Nexus One (yay) and had a few applications lined up on Appbrain to get started.. Two specific ones were Pandora and the Last.FM personal radio, yet they seemed to have dissappeared from the market but still show up in both Androlib and Appbrain, the links just go nowhere.
I've done some searching, but nothing specific has turned up regarding this issue. I've waited a few days but since there's no other mention I'm wondering if it's just me?
Thanks...
Appbrain does not filter applications by their availability (device or country specific, etc), but the market does

So where can I find out about these regional restrictions?

You just did...
It's easiest to just check the website for the program you want to use, if the service is not available in your country it probably isn't in the market either. It's usually just big name apps that have such restrictions anyways (and mostly streaming apps at that).
Other Market Apps on your Android Phone
Check out the post Other Market apps on your Android Phone to get app those apps you see online but not in your market!
Google don't appear to have updated the Market with the fingerprint from FRG83G yet, so copy protected apps aren't showing up.
anyone try appbrain? is there a dl for the latest apk, i have an older one and is too old, install just sits.
Appbrain only links to the market. Since that isn't working, appbrain won't either. There are other market alternatives though, Slideme, applanet and andappstore.
what I don't understand is that Nookdevs list a ton of "Via Market on Phone" apps here http://nookdevs.com/NookColor_working_apps - so how are did they install them?

What they mean is downloading the app from the Android Market on a phone then moving the apps over to the NC via Dropbox or Hoccer.
Sent from my Nook Color
ah ok, thanks, will give that a try then!

So what do those w/out Android phones do?
Odd that there's no PC app to download apks from the Market. I mean, I get that Android was *designed* to use the Market, but there's obviously a need for such a tool.

You can get (limited) Market access using the emulator in the Android SDK. I don't know the legal issues involved though, so I won't post direct links, but instructions are easy enough to find and are very trivial to follow.
As far as I know though, this method only works well on pre-2.1 (i.e.; 1.6) devices. On 2.1+, the hacked Markets I've tried are so incredibly limited, it's not even worth it (it seems like only the most esoteric apps are available). Using 1.6 though, you'll have access to ALL apps (even paid ones) that aren't designated as 2.1+. Probably 75-80% of the apps in the Market are written for all Android versions, so you'll only be missing out on a handful of useful ones (like launchers and browsers).
My NC is auto-nootered running the newer Market and I love it.
But I hate that I can't get all the normal apps via Market. Amazon and Trillian are the two I've noticed so far. Amazon is only for the US Market, so I had to download an APK for it that won't update. As for Trillian, I can't even find a an up-to-date APK.
I've tried Market Enabler, which hasn't done a damned thing. I can see both Amazon and Trillian with AppBrain, but when I click Market it just says that the target couldn't be found.
How can I/we get access to these apps, installed via a real Market so they can update? I'm fine paying USD$4.99 for Trillian.
Thanks all.

You have to install AppBrain and Fast Web Installer from the market on your Nook. Run Fast Web Installer once and click "Allow" -- You can then find and install the protected apps using appbrain.com (not the app). Then go into the AppBrain app and sync then install the protected app on the Nook.

"Google has made fast web install impossible in the latest upgrade of the Android market, which is installed on your device."
So ... I guess this can only be done with the older Market app? That's a shame, but better than not being able to use those apps I suppose.
Will the apps be able to update themselves if I install them this way? Or will I have to go back to the website every time?
Hi All,
I don't seem to be able to find Dolphin HD in Google Market. Does anyone else experience this? I'm funning TnTLite 4.3.2 with the market fix.
Thanks.
It shows up in my market. I'm also running TnT 4.32 with market fix. May want to try the fix again and see if that helps.
If you check the web market, you'll see that the application is shown as not compatible with our tablets. It's probably the browser's requirement of fine gps location, something our tablets don't feature.
However, while I haven't tried it, if you have another Android device, you can most likely download it there and then sideload it on your tablet.
Another option (though it doesn't work for this app, since it's not listed on Amazon's market) is to check Amazon's market. In some cases, programs that are listed in Google's market as incompatible show up as perfectly compatible in Amazon's market.
Do a Google search for the apk. Its out there and I know you can find it.
Happy hunthunting

this is what I did, and it works fine on the tablet, though I still prefer opera...
I did the market fix on my GTab, the same way I did it on my Archos 70.
I have Dolphin Browser HD on my Archos, but not the Market for the GTab. Strange.
Perhaps on another cache clear and reboot, it will come back.
In the meantime, I know that if you have a Usenet account and provider, you can go to NZBMatrix.com and search for just about any Android APK you want.... Just saying....
i can fix market on tnt lite but it doesn't work with vegan
I looked and looked last night, did the market fix several times. This morning I just just installed it on my phone, then used Astro to back up the APK, mailed it to myself, then side loaded it onto my GTAB.
