Im pretty sure there should be a way to get paid apps for free. Such as buying, downloading and installing then copying the files to ur computer. Refunding and then reinstalling it via cmd prompt. If I'm missing a thread please point me in the direction but I havn't seen any and this should be rather easy. I wonder why nobody has posted a thread about this yet.
Because this forum does not discuss warez, piracy or copyright infgringements.

against the rules
Out of question
This isn't a warez site
Why would you want to? Most apps only cost a couple of dollars!
i obviously edited my post because i dont need people to respond to it so idk why you people are responding
i heard you can get free apps by following MOD EDIT - Link removed due to warez
I asked to be approved to follow ..we'll see.
i hope these apps you speak of are not warez. talking about warez on xda is likely to result in a ban.

you guys really are very homo when it comes to responding to people's post. Did he mention anything about warez? It is a twitter account that might or might not send you an app that is illegal to send or it is not.
He is not saying the twitter account sends you paid apps free. He just says you get free apps. If you look throught the market, there are thousands of free apps.
People need to stop being so ignorant when it comes to trying to report a supposed warez thread and posting BS that has nothing to do with the original post.
I'll be following that twitter account and hopefully it is chock-full of f'n warez! Get a life or start posting pertinent information, douche.
it is so funny...
the word "giveaway" implies that something is given away that is else not to be gotten for free... otherwise they wouldn't have to be "given away" would they... since they would be available for free download on the market anyway...
so yes, i am very sure it's warez

You are using "homo" as an adverb? Learn some sensitivity before you comment on others lack thereof.

First off, your response is insulting, annoys me and has no place in this forum. Your lucky I'm in a good mood!! Further posts like this will result in a ban heading your way. Try and treat others with respect!!
I consider this matter closed
As for the link, to give away FREE sounds to good to be true and is likely warez, hence why it was reported in the first place which we mods appreciate as warez IS NOT PERMITTED IN ANY WAY OR FORM!
I will check out link and close if necessary
MOD EDIT: REMOVED
You won't find them on XDA where it's against the rules to post them.
Violation
This is xda-DEVELOPERS.com! Guess who we support and who we are about? Also guess who makes those apps you are trying to steal and pirate? Read the forum rules before posting as you were required to do when signing up for membership.
Truth is the first casualty in a war or something similar is an often quoted saying these days. The recent reports of censorship on social media platforms are good examples of this censorship. Freedom of speech does not mean the license to troll or spread wrong information. I feel censorship by impartial judges is justified. The operative word being impartial.
What do you think? Do you agree with this view?
Do you think social media platforms should allow the unfiltered flow of content?
I don't use FB, Instagram, Twitter, WhatsApp, Tic-tok or bother to view a any of the major US news network's bs.
They pushed too hard and the worm has turned...

Not using any of these social media apps is definitely one approach. The problem is if we have family members active on only these platforms!

Not good... my Mom didn't raise a fool.
Need to bring up their level of wherewithal.
All those sites are purveyors of disinformation at the very best and completely untrustworthy.
censorship is no longer a matter of social media, it's daily business on public media too and concerns all people around the world. nowadays it's even forced by law on governments outrage. we have passed 1984 long ago.
I don't see a reason why we should play their game and self-censor each own. On the other hand there are people out there spreading fake-news on telegram or whatever, so I am fine with our common board rules - no religion - no politics.
Having own opinion is part of our identity. we don't judge about someones avatar or profile signature - what we all have in common we are tech nerds, that's why we signed up here, don't we?
this is currently happen on xda? some true useful stuff is from 4pda (WwR MTK which is really great tool to create scatter files for mediatek devices, Orange State Disabler which patches little kernel to remove the 5 seconds delay on unlocked bootloader, just to mention two of them) and is mirrored on xda by members (not authors). some genius russian spend lot time and mind and offers it for free, so why not allow link to origin for respectful giving proper credits?
my opinion, xda should generally allow links to 4pda and only censor if necessary. each link should be surveyed for its advertising character on its own. only explicit links should removed, no generalized claims...

@Pervokur
Welcome to XDA! We're greatful that you share your knowledge.
However; I've removed the references to 4pda! Same applies to your post here.
4pda is not only another phone related website (and not at all affiliated with xda-developers) but also well known for the distribution of malware and warez. Links to 4pda are not accepted on XDA.

@Alecxs Thanks very much for sharing your opinion. Censorship is a very subjective qualification for an action especially on a completely private website. In all the years that I'm visiting, monitoring and contributing to XDA - even before I was allowed to join the very small team of volunteers who mediate this site - I've never seen that anything has been censored on XDA. What I've seen (and am actually also now doing as a moderator) is that posts were edited or removed in cases when no content would remain after an edit because those post were not in line with the rules of this private website.
Would you call it censorship if I remove a post with a link to a child-porn site and ban the author? I certainly wouldn't call it so, and I'd even report all information I have in such cases to my local police station. Would you call it censorship?
Would you call it censorship if I remove a link to a website that offers warez and cracked premium applications and inform the authors that we don't accept that at all and made all users aware about this stance shown in rule no. 6 of our forum rules? I certainly wouldn't call it so. Would you do?
If we've visitors at our home and we told them please not to smoke but they don't care and do, I ask them to immediately leave. Would you call that censorship of the actions of our visitors? I certainly wouldn't call it so. Would you do?
In your above post you clearly explain that 4pda is another phone related website; something I also mentioned in my post that you've quoted. And the third bullet of our rule no. 11 says:
Encouraging members to participate in forum activities on other phone related sites is prohibited.

I think it's just fair and quite understandable that XDA doesn't want to be a promotional platform for another phone related website.
If I visit the restaurant "Bella Roma" and order my drinks but when the waiter brings the menu, I say negative, please bring me the menu of the "Bella Napoli", I like to order their food, I'm most likely told that I won't be served and eat at the "Bella Roma" but could leave any time.
no generalized claims. that's all I said
edit: google translate: no sweeping accusations. that's what I wanted to say
