I had paid for a digital/analog clock (called RealDark or something like that) a month or two ago, but it has disappeared.
It's no longer listed in my paid apps and no combination of search terms can locate it. I googled the app name and found that it was pulled from an alternative android market as well.
Anyone know why an app that you've paid for can simply be made unavailable to a customer?!

Apps unpublished by a developer remain on the Market servers for users who have already paid to download as well as licensing.
However, if the app was legitimately pulled (not unpublished) for a violation of TOS or DMCA style take down request it would not be available.
It was just a clock, from a prolific, highly-rated developer. What gives?

contact the developer.
Couldn't find the developer either - his name was Eodyumbel or something like that. He created a lot of Go Launcher themes, add-ons, etc.

Search your gmail for the confirmation email you received when you bought the app originally. The developers info and email address should be there.

Good thinking. Hopefully it's not one of the very few emails that I've deleted. I typically board emails, so I should have it.
Found my receipt, emailed the developer. All of his apps are gone from the market.

Out of curiosity, what was the app and who was the developer?
It was called something like RealDark digital analog clock. The dev went by Eodyumbel, or something similar.
It's just a clock, but it pisses me off because I paid real money for it ($1 or $2). What if it'd been SPB Shell or something pricey??

I probably do have a backup on the pc. This is a newer phone and I don't like restoring apps from Ti backups - I'll do it in a pinch, but I prefer to install fresh from the market since I switch roms so often.
If it wasnt removed by the dev, i advise using "market-enabler" from the market, to fake anouther country/provider and then find your app. I had the same problem with a railway-app.

hi, why i don't find Txtract in the market?
it's only a my problem or Txtract is now out of market?
p.s.
can anyone post here the .apk of Txtract?
thanks
its a paid app....cant request it...i think they took the free version off the market. but i remember seeing it as a paid app a few days ago..
I was shocked today that the app, indeed is now a paid-one.
Has anybody the free 1.6 apk left? I checked my backups, but unfortunately, I can't find it =O
Here is the free Txtract 1.6 from my backups.
I hope there is no trouble posting this one, it's the free one, not the paid for one.
Cheers

Codeboy thank you sooooo much. I had an upset cheating fiance delete my gmail account, and with it all of my business contacts calender etc. She admitted it ove sms, however without a valid gmail account on my g1 I wasnt able to use the market to download anything that could backup my sms for proof that shed done this. Now to decide whether charging her with a felony for computer fraud is worth it...cheers
I tried searching for this but I could not find anthing on it, sorry if this is a repost.
Today I recieved a notification on my phone that said "A friend has recommend an app for you" or something to that extent. I selected it and it opened the browser, then opened the market and took me to the listing for some horoscope app.
This is the first time this has happened so I have no idea how that took place. Is this a feature in the Market place, or did some app do this by itself? Anyone have this happen to them?
this sounds interesting. I would also like to find out. I checked the market menus and nothing led me to this.
i believe the app you're looking for is aTrackDog. long press on an app from the list of installed apps and there is a "share with friends" option that posts a link to the app.

But I don't have aTrackDog, so I don't think it would be able to pop up a notification oh my phone.
Did you ever find out if your friend had actually sent some sort of recommendation? Reason I ask is perhaps your friend isn't actually sending the recommendation but the horoscope app your friend has download is without their knowledge...considering that the recommendation is for the same app in both cases :/

It never told me which friend so I have no idea.
I'm just gonna guess that whichever dev made that horoscope app might have made some other app that I DO have and thats how i got the notification.
I know a ton of people check this subforum for new application releases from the big companies and I didn't see this mentioned.

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:

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

i have new apps installed not by market, is there a way to link them so i can get new updates? i downloaded gem miner dig deeper and its version is like 1.2 and newest is like 2.1 or somthing, i want to update my app. is there anyway to do that?... i cant update because that app isnt linked to the market app but it is on the market. it just doesnt show ive previously downloaded because it was installed from my computer
Sent from my Eris using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
yea download the app threw the market and it will install on top of the other version, then you will have updates as well. unless its a paid app that you didnt pay for, then we cant help you as that would be illegal. im not saying you did, just putting it there.
I am running evil eris and installed all of my apps from an astro backup and they wouldnt automatically update for a week or so but then all of the sudden i started getting notifications saying that app updates are available and it worked. I dunno if I got lucky but I definitely installed all of my apps from a backup and not the market. Updated scannerbuddy this morning as a matter of fact.
i have a paid app from a torrent i would like to update and add to my market

which is completely illegal and could get you banned from this site for mentioning that you stole the app, or could get you in big legal trouble. might i suggest you pay the 2.99 for the app (cost of most apps) and support the dev. its really not that much considering your phone bill is over $90 each month, so i think we all are rich enough to give up $3 to devs for their hard work.

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...

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
