[Q] Google Play - Paypal trade? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So many of us don't have a credit card and that means that we can't buy apps @ Play store even if we wanted to.
I had the idea to pay someone (XDA Member) for an ap so that he could buy it with his CC and then send it to me.
I would send the money through Paypal.
Wondering if this is allowed and or possible!
Google play cards don't work here in the Netherlands
There are sites like AndroidPit that can help me out, but many times they just forward me to Play, which makes it useless...:angel:
(P.S. I created the same topic at another section of this site, but people barely responded, so hopefully I'll have more replies here.):angel:

When you download an ap from Play the apk is stored on your device

It's easier to get visa prepaid.. You can use them to buy anything around the world.. Why don't you get one?

Here in the Netherlands you actually have to work to be able to get a CC.
So that means that when you're a student it's very hard if not impossible to get one.

Why not use a prepaid visa like msedek said.

Yep, ask your bank for a prepaid visa or mastercard. In Switzerland you can get them everywhere, even at some kiosks. Since it is prepaid you don't need an income or credit score. In most countries they are even available to minors.

If you have a bank account surely you can get a debit card? I do not have a credit card and never plan to get one but the play store accepts debits cards (visa etc)

Thread cleaned. Although I am leaving this thread open, please do not continue discussing methods of pirating apps from the Play Store. You have been warned.

He does not even consider getting one. Everybody can get a prepaid Visa or Mastercard if one is not too lazy to look for it. There is no sense in counseling him any further if he does not heed our advice.

PayPal isn't supported in my country and neither is buying apps from play store. What am I supposed to do? I would love to pay royalties to the person that makes the apps I love but there is no possible way for me to do it. Banks here don't allow online transactions as well incase you're wondering. I depend on warez.

Free 50GB Box.net accounts

Summary​
Here's the deal. I have a HP Touchpad. There is a special offer on the Box.net application for the Touchpad that signs up new members for a promotional 50GB account instead of the normal 5GB account. It is the same account type as the 5GB one, but with 50GB of total storage. Account details below. This promotional offer is only available to the HP Touchpad application.
Questions and Answers​
What are the account details?
50GB total storage space
10GB monthly (calendar) bandwidth
100MB file size limit
How do I qualify?
1. You must be a contributing member of this community with at least two months of active posting.
2. You must have received at least ten thanks.
Will you change your mind or make a special exception for me since I just joined/don't have ten thanks?
Absolutely not. This is a reward for contributing community members.
What do you get out of this deal?
A warm, fuzzy feeling inside.
This all sounds great and I am a contributing member! How do I get my free account?
Simple. PM me the e-mail address you want linked to the account. I will create an account for you as soon as I can using the password "xdaforums" as the default. Make sure you change it after I post a confirmation here. Please, ONE request per user. New accounts only. Void where prohibited.
How long are you offering this?
Until I get bored, or when I'm done being nice.

Can I integrate this into Windows Explorer?
Of course you can. Follow the instructions in this post.
Disclaimer:
I don't get anything out of this deal other than a warm, fuzzy feeling of doing something nice for you. This isn't a "sign-people-up-so-I-get-more-space" deal. I don't make any money or anything off of this. All I am doing is creating your own separate account for you on my Touchpad, and turning control of the account over to you. Plain and simple, with no strings attached. I figured who better would appreciate a lot of free cloud storage than XDA, so here I am.

You need a paid account for that feature. I use it more for extra personal storage. I've got 18GB used up so far. It's handy for expanding the memory on my 16GB Touchpad.

It does with a paid account. This is basically a static 50GB storage location. If you want more than read/write access, you have to pay.

What did I do wrong?
EDIT @ALL: It was a misunderstanding on the nature of this thread. To clarify, I'm not getting anything in return for doing this for any of you guys. I'm just being nice. I have to sign you guys up for it myself because it has to be done through the HP Touchpad Box.net application. Signing up on the website yourself gets you the standard 5GB account. This is the same as that one feature-wise, but offers 50GB instead of 5GB.
Ohmygosh, thanks so much!!!! I have actived that account already!!! You're the man!!!

Full Fledged Google play access for everyone outside US [NO ROOTING]

Hi I just figured out a way to get unrestricted access to google books , magazine, movies and TV from outside the US. {I am from india}
It involves no rooting or side loading. I am editing the video on how to get it done, will upload as soon as i finish. you will get the $25 free credit too using the following work around.... wait for it....

i assume it involves using a US VPN?
Plus you need a US credit card in order to buy any of the said magazines, books, movies etc... So it's pointless.
heh, I just want the $25 credit!!
Not really,
i'm out of USA, and could buy a movie and a book with a US VPN + International credit card.
Just give a US Zip code, the billing address vs register are not checked.
but my problem is: when i back to my N7 or my Gnexus i couldn't see the movie because it recognize that i'm out of US (My Google play movie version ends with "br").

Yes it works but I have seen people with suspended wallet accounts because of these fake addresses. People were crying even on this forum because of this issue. Not everyone face this problem but probably they do random checks.

Help! I can't watch Google TV/Video while traveling!

I am looking for some help.
I have an unlocked Note. CM9 is installed. Apps are all updated.
I was on straight talk in the states. Now that I am traveling a bit (currently in the middle east) i am using a local SIM card to make phone calls / use data.
Its working great - besides the fast that the data is way past slow.
The only problem is that the phone region locked me out of the TV/Movies (google play) that I bought / downloaded.
Does anyone know how I can continue to use the local sim card while maintaining access to my google play media?
Thanks! :good:

dont know how they go about traveling and counties unsupported even thought you bought in a supporting country.
I did read there is a tamprred version supposedly disabling country check but not sure if it will help in this case.
I think the purchases are linked to account, and not sim/emei. But not sure about that.

All that I could find through that link is that I need to update my apps.
I did - everything is up todate, but they still dont work. I am guessing they are just region locked.
This really sucks. My entertainment package is down. :crying:
same happened to me, downloaded movies in Google Play, paid for them, got inside plane, landed in Germany and no movies played. Only message this video is not supported in your country. Called Google, unfortunately they said once you leave US it stops working, same of the movies purchased in US are still not even playing in theatres overseas etc. Offered me to refund the money. This really really sucks, I don't know why they even bother to introduce this Google feature, if you can use it only in one country.
yes, stupid country rights,protectionism, etc. I dont understand the whole regionalization, costs more, is more maintanence, and slowers update speeds. Make a global platform, we live global nowadays anyways.

First of all..USA, my country is not stupid okay? Before you call something stupid you need to read our bill of rights nd ammendments for which my country is founded upon. I could call your country "Full of ****" but before I do that. I have to know, understand and absorb fully well why I said so. Irresponsible marks can put you in jail in some parts of the world you know. "Ignorance to the Law" excuses NO ONE!. that is at least how we have it here. (not sure in your part of the world though).
Your Google Account speaks of your information to where you are.. So even if you change your country (in your Account settings), you still can't fool Google on your current location (if your outside of the U.S.)
And apart from that, Google movies and books were never in the first place launch internationally. It was just here in the States that Google decided so. Not sure why they did that but you can maybe blame Google and not the country itself. Just like Apple.. Most american companies pets their people first before giving it to others. Not to be a racist or something but that is just how it is. Yeah we have our congressmen and senators always imposing laws about the internet and stuff but they're just as well protecting to the best interest of the American people. And to be honest, I don't necessarily support all of their actions okay?(like the SOPA thing) but it doesn't warrant me saying that USA sucks already.
Again.. Blame Google not the Country.. If Google says that google books and movies are only for your country then fine.. I don't question why it's only in your country..so be it. I don't trash talk why your country was given that preference only.. Now again, the question why you can't read books and watch movies in Google is not the fault of the country itself. Blame Google for setting up their servers on U.S. soil. And quit whining..USE a US free VPN (if you can get around with it) to perhaps use these feature...if you still can't get anything out of it then your'e out of luck and just better shut up and stop complaining.

thank you for speaking your mind I respect that.
What I wrote was having regionally set things up is stupid, not your Country, I think you misread that. Just companies policies. Its not only Google, but Blackberry, Samsung actually almost all companies.
What in my opinion makes Googles policies extra stupid is inhibiting functionality, if you live in USA you can use the movies and music, but if you happen to travel, your not alowed to use the functionality anymore in a unsupported country.

As the person above me replied.
You will have 15 minutes to cancel an order. To find the "Refund" button and cancel your order:
Open the Google Play Store app on your device.
Tap Menu > My Apps.
Find the app you've purchased that you'd like to cancel and tap to open the details page.
Within the 15 minutes, you will see the option to "Open" or "Refund" - tap "Refund" to cancel the order.
If you cancel your order within the first 15 minutes, your credit/debit card will not be charged. Any line items on your statement are only authorizations.

Well, there used to be a refund period of 48 hours. But people really abused this when it came to games. That was a large reason why big companies did not want to come to android (that and piracy). Some didn't come at all and others like game loft made it so that you had to buy games from their website and then side load them.
Because of these issues, they turned the refund period down to 15 minutes. Personally, I think 30-60min would be perfect. Sometimes it takes 15 just to get a game on progress working properly.
But, at least it is better than the 0 minute policy Apple has.
Actually 15 minutes is enough. Many people are already misusing the refund feature. Buy app. Quickly make a backup of it in Titanium backup / copy the .apk installation file from cache/download/ and then ask for a refund. Its cheap, I know but many are doing it
About Google wallet, it is quite secure. I have bought with it and removed my debit card attached without any problem.
They may charge 0.01$ for no reason but they refund it back within a month or a week. I think its for verification. I tried with my debit card.
@chemical: hell yeah it's cheap! It's like stealing one candy bar from a local store... i mean, if you can't squeeze that one dollar on an app that you'll use for a long time, there's something wrong... what's better, have an app for free, or pay 1$ and get updates for as long as app is developed? :]
Support your local merchants and not so local developers!
So you have 15 mins to copy the app from /data/apps or /mnt/asec to your SD Card >

You obviously never tried to do something creative (let it be painting, app, or piece of music) and sell it. Many developers release apps on play store to make money for living (unlike you, probably living with your parents without any source of income, acceptable until you go to school) and pay bills and rent and you said "everyone should abuse play store", how would you feel if some big bad guy grabbed you in a dark alley and mugged you off from all money and other goods? Not so good, isn't it? You do same thing by abusing play store...
