I really liked youtube downloader. i wiped my phone and lost it. its not on market and has been pulled from the site.. is there any way i can get it or a program that can do the same function. i really liked that program. HELP
http://www.mediafire.com/?u5my4uijzke
This is a free app so I hope I dont break any rule here!
thats odd Google pulled it...I swear I just downloaded an update for YouTubeDownloader...
its still on my G1...I dont use it much so i wont miss it...
Hi, I'm new to this stuff.
Can someone please help me on how to put this on my phone?
Does it have to be rooted? I would really appreciate it, i love this app and miss it very much.

The file i downloaded was .apk
But i just dont know what to do with it...
sorry, let me clearify... the file you download is called "com.isaacwaller.youtubedownloader.apk.jar"... this does no good on the phone to install so i decompressed it so now its "com.isaacwaller.youtubedownloader.apk"... yet this is a folder now and not a file.apk.... so putting it on the sd and using an app installer doesnt do much when its a folder with the name only saying .apk... i need a file.apk so i can use an app installer, right? or am i way off? Think maybe because i use a mac has anything to do with it??? or does it need to be a dev phone? my phone isnt "unlocked," and im running rc33
but to answer your question Rescue7 if you do have a the file "com.isaacwaller.youtubedownloader.apk" and not a folder like i have... all you need to do is put it onto your sd card, then run an app installer. if you use linda file manager it will give you an option... if not use the application installer that you can download via the market

Yeah I figured it out. I just plugged my phone into my laptop, put it in "Games and Applications." then used Discover Pro. But thanks anyways. ^^

Hmm well I'm using a PC. And I don't have a dev phone, or an unlocked phone. Just a regular G1. Well why dont u just give it a try? maybe it'll work??
JLO: you're either going to have to download it using firefox or use right click + save as in safari, otherwise osx think's a zip folder and tries to decompress it as it downloads, which results in the .jar file.
Here is your application
GO TO THIS WEBSITE AND IT IS THERE. AND TELL OTHER PEOPLE CAUSE I WANT TO SHARE THIS APP WITH OTHERS CAUSE IT IS THAT GOOD.

IN ORDER TO PUT IT ON YOUR PHONE YOU WILL NEED TO USE APPMANAGER WHICH IS FREE FROM THE ANDROID MARKET.
http://allshadow.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=5417
TRY IT OUT AND BE SURE TO SPREAD THE NEWS THAT IT IS FREE FOR DOWNLOAD AT THE FIRST LINK FOR ANYBODY WHO WANTS THE PROGRAM.
solution
just go to keepvid.com from your phone to download youtube videos onto your phone from your phone.
simply just go to the video you want to download on the browser then hit menu then go to url the url is now highlighted on ur phone copy it by using (hold down menu button then press C on your keyboard) not the big menu button on the outside of the phone the button next to the Z key on the keyboard then paste the link to keepvid.com using (menu then V) for paste then download the mp4 walla use a video player to play the video u just got from youtube

I just thought I'd point out that you don't have to use firefox or save as.
Just delete the jar off the end of the filename. It does this when downloading themes also. So far, I haven't had any issues just deleting the .jar.

Pulled from Marketplace. The developer still offers it for download here:

Fifa 10

I looked around to see if this was posted anywhere else on here but didn't see anything. I wanted to let everyone know that you are able to port Fifa 10 to the gTab using the following method.
Note: This method has only been tested by myself. I do not know how this will affect your device so proceed with caution.
You will need to have a device that can already run Fifa for this to work. (ex Samsung Fascinate)
Instructions in red are to be performed on your gTab. Instructions in lime green are to be performed on your second device.
1.) Install the Fifa apk on the gTab. You can either do this by downloading from the market, if it shows up, or by side-loading it. (If you try to open it it will try to download extra information and fail.)
2.) Install the Fifa apk on your second device.
3.) Once you have installed on your second device you will open the game. It will start by notifying you that it must download more files from the EA servers. Allow it to fully download and install the game.
4.) After it has been completely installed on the second device you will have all the files you need to play on your gTab. On your second device use Dropbox to upload all the files in /sdcard/data/data/com.eamobile.Fifa/files to your Dropbox account.
5.) On your gTab navigate to the /sdcard/data/data. From here you will need to create the folder " com.eamobile.Fifa ".
6.) Inside that folder create another folder titled " files "
7.) Install all of the files you upload to your dropbox into the newly created files folder on your gTab
You should now be able to open Fifa 10 on your gTab. Hope this can help the gTab loving soccer fans out there!
Thanks for the walkthrough.
Do you know if this solves the "white field" issue? I've installed it in the past but the grass is always white for some reason?
Too weird -- FIFA 10 worked for me right off the market...I bought it when the app was 99cents for a while...
No work needed at all to get it to run on the gtablet...
Ive gotten fifa to load and start a game but always fcs abt 10 seconds into the game and I see the white field patches. Memory is 300mb before game launch, data file downloaded properly, running vegan 5.1....any thoughts?
me too

Youtube apk file

Hi All,
For some reason my youtube app is missing from my nexus S and I can not download it from the market because it shows as already installed and it says it is incompatible with my provider.
I was wondering if someone can upload the apk file. You can find it by using any of the file managers (like ASTRO) and checking system/app/youtube.apk
Thank you.
hard reset worked for me, was looking for the akp for some days, nowere to be found.

Here is the solution.

Google Wallet Working on ATT using Xperia Z

I have always been big fan of Google Wallet. I had it working on my Note 2, S3, etc. I recently pick up Xperia Z and wanted to see if i was able to get it to work. Last night, i went to 7/11 and bought a drink, the guy behind me was blown away just the fact that i use the phone to pay it..I am on ATT. I've search in the app section for google wallet and no thread about it and wanted to share my experience.
I want to let you all know that i take no credit for this. All information i got is from that XDA and from prereq step 2. Also if you are on corp email, i would suggest remove it and re add after you get google wallet working.
Warning..if you don't know what you doing, please don't do this. this can cause bootloop and many other stuff. Precautionary, please back up..back up...
Here is how i got it to work.
PreReq
1) Phone rooted
2) go here and download latest google release from Modaco. Currently it should be r96-v13.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1769083
3) root expolorer - please use this only otherwise you will get boot loop. For more information, follow thread in prereq 2.
Setup
1) Use root explorer and mount as r/w
2) go to /system/ and look for build.prop
3) open with text editor in Root explorer
4) within the file, search look for ro.xxxx, not ro.sem.xxx. look for exactly below.
ro.product.device=c6603
ro.product.name=c6603-1270-7689
ro.product.model=c6603
and replace with
ro.product.model=Galaxy Nexus
ro.product.name=yakju
ro.product.device=maguro
5) put the application from prereq step 2 to /system/apps and set permission to 644
6) go to setting,more and check nfc and under wallet select google
7) reboot
8) launch google wallet and follow direction
9) after you get google wallet to work then launch root explorer
10) go to /system and rename the build.prop to build.prop.ori
11) rename build.prop.bak to build.prop
12) reboot
13) money
Please note that i did the exact step and it work for me. I have the xperia z c6603 and i am on ATT. Again i take no credit but just reading up on xda. IF anything, thanks OP in the link i provided.
I am using Xperia Z on Straight Talk, I just installed Google Wallet from Play Store, however, I got a" Google Wallet is not yet available for your device or mobile network"

I have this problem after I try to install google wallet
Also what is mean set permission to 644???
In root explorer hold down on file and go to permissions
4 is read
5 is read/execute (execute is always needed for directories)
6 is read/write
7 is read, write, and execute
The first number is Owner, the second is Group, and the third is Other. Thus 644 is
Read Read Read
Write

can you do a video on this? and does this work on T-Mobile on C6602?
9) after you get google wallet to work then launch root explorer
10) go to /system and rename the build.prop to build.prop.ori
11) rename build.prop.bak to build.prop
I did steps 9-11 and changing build.prop BACK to the Sony settings breaks Google Wallet again, you need to keep the modified version w/ the Google Nexus settings for it to work after a reboot. I tested this and can confirm it works.
Works like a charm!
Works as advertised except that you may not need to download the Google wallet app from modaco as stated above. I did a search on playstore and got the latest version of Google wallet and at first, it allowed me to download it and install but I couldn't use it. I then just changed the name of the model, device etc... and rebooted and it worked!!
Cheers.
What carrier are you on?

Got problem with making payment.
Hey mad, im not sure u can help but I do need advise here. Mine is c6602 and im on tmobile 4g. I do all the steps except steps 9 to 11. The build.prop need to be kept as edited to make it work so I can open the app. Finally I get it and I tried the app. See a little yellow title that unsupported device on top. I added and selected my credit card. Then I went to office depot and tried it. With data network on, I make payment and everything go throught and it seemed I got transaction declined. I dont know what is the problem here. Is the rooted z rejeted by wallet recently or. Because of the carrier or the store system?
I really want to use the app so if u know the solution here plz show us.
Sorry to dig up an old thread. I have done this with every ROM I've installed on my Z and it worked every time. I am on AT&T, but I'm not sure if that matters. I even have a corporate Gmail account on this phone and it was unaffected by this process.
If you have trouble, you need to start all the way over. Remove the app from /system/app, fix your build.prop, and reboot. Then start at step one. It works even when you change your build.prop back to the Sony values if you follow the process correctly.
I have Niaboc's ExistenZe Ultra installed, Android 4.2.2, and this still works, just tested now.
If you get tired of the Play Store offering to update it, use Titanium Backup to disassociate it with the Market. You may have to do this several times, but it will stick eventually.
I should mention that com.android.phone complains and fc's a couple times at boot now, but it doesn't seem to cause any ongoing problems. Calls and SMS work just fine. All networking and telephony works as expected.
This same process worked on my Xperia ZL, my Xperia Acro S, and my Galaxy Note 1. Oh, and my Nexus 7. And the Note 2 while I had it.

I'm not sure if the exposed modules and framework are compatible with this phone or not, but you could try installing the exposed framework and the google wallet patch module.

Take backup before doing this. all apps installed after this will go to SD card
1. Get the Google Android SDK
- Unzip the file and place the folder onto your desktop or anywhere that can be easily accessed.
- find the platform tools folder (default, it should be : adt-bundle/sdk)
2. - Open the folder called " platform-tools"
- shift+right-click anywhere inside the folder and choose [Open Command Window Here]
3. Go onto your Android phone and select USB debugging
- Go to [System settings > Developer Options] and select USB Debugging (if the option is grayed out, unplug your phone first)
4. Enter in the following
adb devices
adb shell pm set-install-location 2
adb shell pm get-install-location
5. - if you did it right, the last output should say: 2 [external]

With ROM modified (ParanoidAndroid, Cyanogenmod, SlimKat, ecc...) it is possible move apps to sd without other application (FolderMount, Link2SD, Apps2sd)?
