Just found this http://www.1mobile.com
Anyone with any experience from it?
I cant find any info about commission and stuff, but it seems to be a pretty large site?
Or, other better alternatives to Google Play?
Alternate Stores
Like with any store the results are mixed based on a number of factors. I like Opera, Mobango, Mobiles24, Amazon, Aptoide, AndroidPit and Yandex but it all depends on the quality of your app and Google Play will still likely drive the majority of your downloads.
google play store is must the primary one, others are all alternative to end users.
I'd still stick to Google Play. I've been using it for a long time now aside from Apps Store.

Well, I was checking 1mobile myself, as I have read elsewhere that it was a big alternative app store.
However, I have seen that its "High-Speed Download" button serves a modified apk, with a lot of additional resources and classes. That seems fishy at the very least.
Does anyone know what 1mobile modifies the apk for? I wouldn't like my app to be associated with adware and bad practices, users to be stolen private data, or additional ads shown within the app.

Hi I know 1 mobile's stuff, do you need it? Upload your app here is not bad choice.

Hi Maggie, I am wondering what are those 3MB or so that 1mobile attaches to my app's apk when the user clicks on "high-speed download".
1Mobile App Store is completely dead. I think you have to go with the Google Play alternative Android stores and even you can go with some mod app stores.
May be this list will help you in choosing that: https://apkfolks.com/app-stores/
Hi, I'm interested in buying a Gear 2 Neo. I just want to ask a couple of questions before purchase one because I am also torn in buying a G Watch R or Gear Live/Moto 360(if it ever becomes available locally).
Q1: Can it sideload apks and stay and work without any issues? I read somewhere that they were able to sideload some apks but after some time, the apps disappeared and could no longer be reinstalled again.
Q2: Does Watch Styler faces work with it right now especially with the latest Gear Manager app? I even already download watch styler and downloaded watch faces and there are just some comments that make me wonder if it really works for the NEO.
Q3: Is it "LAGGY"? If you have used an Android Wear watch and compared it with this, is the performance noticeably slower? I'm kind of used to the lightning speeds of my Note 3 and I can quite annoyingly obsess about little lags.
This is just my main concerns for now. I hope you guys could help me. I have already watch tons of reviews but I want an answer from people who actually is "using" it. Thanks!
Hi all,
I'm new here, and wanted to get some feedback from you experts. I own both a note 4 (for work) and iPhone 6 plus (personal) and am wanting to dabble in smart watches. More specifically, I am looking to get a smart watch for my iPhone 6 plus.
Although, I have searched the forums, YouTube, some blogs, and Google, I am still not sure what will be my best bet for a smart watch for my iPhone, and with the threads I have found, a lot seem to be half done, and a lot of comments, tests, etc, so instead of searching all over and getting to the end of a thread that asks me to check out this thread, then jump to this thread, etc, I was hoping a few of you experts could give me some advice on what will work best for my needs.
So I understand that the gear 1 or gear 2 can work with my iPhone 6, with limited capabilities, which is okay, but the info I've been reading is confusing and again was hoping some of you experts could point me in the right direction..
-so what I'm looking for is a couple things:
(A) first, find out which smart watch, gear 1 or gear 2 will work best for my needs.
(B) second, be able to add apps from outside sources such as Google play or vshare, or something other than what is in the watches stock stores. And have Internet access on these watches, which I'm assuming I could do by adding a browser via one of these stores on the smart watch.
(C) third, which ever smart watch I chose, I would like it to do as much as it is intended to, however, I understand that the gears only do limited functions. With that said, I'm hoping you guys can enlighten me which Samsung gear will work best with my iPhone 6? Should i be getting gear 1 or gear 2?
(D) and forth, definite directions, or links, on what I need to do to make either the gear 1 or gear 2 work with my iPhone 6. (I have seen several threads and will use those once I can get definite info on what I need to do to the gear 1 or gear 2, or my iPhone, etc to use them with each other)
-please correct me, but what I understand so far is:
(A)for gear 1 and using with iPhone 6:
-I've read that the gear 1 will work with iPhone 6, if I root the Samsung gear 1 using null rom or other?, jb iPhone 6, install cloud notifier from big boss repo, use mi wifi or Bluetooth teathering, on the iPhone, and need to activate the watch using an android phone first. And get an account for pushing notifications, but not sure which are myoptins for that..
(A2) side loading apps or using vshare store for additional apps?
-I also saw a YouTube video that shows I can side load apks on gear 1, easier than on the gear 2 because gear 1 uses android and gear 2 uses tizen. If that's the case, then I'm thinking the gear 1 would satisfy my desire to side load apps. I also didn't see anyone mention if they have tried to install vshare and install apps from that store? (Either by side loading vshare and or from a browser?)
(B) for gear 2 and using iPhone 6:
-I've only see a few definite threads, and videos, where they use the gear 2 wight their iPhone. So I'm confused if the gear 2 will work or not? And also, I thought I read or saw someone say for gear 2, you root the phone and don't need to jb the iPhone, to use with iPhone or any other android phone? And also read that some say they were able to get them connected simply by using BT, make visible, etc. but again, the threads seem to go on with issues and nothing ever definite on what works..
-so basically not sure if the gear 2 will work with I phone 6??
(B2) side loading apps on gear 2?
-I've read the side loading only works with gear 1 because it's android. So is there a way to sideload apps on gear 2/tizen? Would you be able to use a browser on the watch and install vshare store from their website, like you would on any android device? Or what's the verdict on side loading apps on the gear 2? Less flexible because it's not android OS? Or??
Misc: (I'm not too excited about getting a pebble steel watch as it just doesn't do it for me).
And finally, Based on the info you guys provide, I'm looking at either Galaxy gear 1 or gear 2 to use with my iPhone. And if all else fails may just go with a cheap Chinese smart watch that would work with my iPhone. But that wouldn't satisfy me unless I could side load apps and/or root those either and have found limited info on rooting some of the China smart watches like zgpax, or u watches.
I know I might not get all that I'm looking for, and even if so, may have limited things working, but with that said, what's your guys advice? Gear 1, gear 2, or some other China smart watch that should work with iPhones? (Don't know if I'll ever go Apple watch, but if I do, it won't be first gen and/or until the price drops 6 months after release, so yeah, looking for something good to hold me over until then, that will require some tech work on my end...)
Sorry if this has already been asked, but I'm still confused after all the threads I've read as mentioned and still lost lol. If this thread needs to go to another part of the forums, please move. Cmon experts please chime in! Thanks in advance and sorry I'm not a developer, just a curious geek that likes the info on this site!!!
Did u ever get a resolution? I have all the same questions.
I have an iPhone 6 and gear 2. Did u ever get it to work? If so how?

This is a good guide to install ios 10 vshare http://androidfunz.com/how-to-install-ios-10-vshare-without-jailbreak-easy-method/
I'm writing a paper on the use of apps for my college course. Basically, I'm wanting to know what the main reason is for the development of apps from a developer's point of view. Is it money, making something useful, or pure entertainment in developing? Also, if you're not a developer how many apps do you have and how many do you actually use/find useful? If I could get some people to chime in and share their experiences and opinions it'd be greatly appreciated!
Non developer.
I mostly use (in order):
Tapatalk (car and IT forums)
Cortana (Windows Phone digital assistant)
Browsers (data compression, normal, tor)
Games (allsorted)
Jesse, first of all thanks for the reply! It seems as if all your apps have an actually use for you. Have you ever paid for any of your apps and if so was it worth the money?
Not a developer, but I mostly use browsers and I also use ppsspp for my gaming needs. I find it fun to experiment with an Android device, because that way you get to explore your device's full potential. And since android is highly customisable, the possibilities are endless.
Thanks for the reply! It's interesting that you guys both brought up that you use multiple browsers. Is there a reason for this? In Jesse's case I can see how you would need a separate browser for tor to access .onion sites but personally I just use the stock browser and in the very rare occasion will I open up Google chrome. Could you tell me a bit more about ppsspp? I have my note 4 rooted and running custom ROM so the customization is great I completely agree. Android is awesome!

I do have other apps too, I just don't use them as regularly. Some of these are different launchers, lock screen customizers, and apps like tasker, as well as some one click root apps I'm trying. (if you can help me root my MT6572 please help here
Spoiler
http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/help/how-to-root-mt6572-zte-telstra-tempo-t3063048
)
All the apps I originally listed I never paid for except for GTA SA(not pirated, but I have some originally free games that are cracked)
On this post, I have paid for tasker, nova launcher prime and my locker pro. That was mostly because I had a free $20 google play voucher with my phone.

As for browsers, I use google chrome on my xperia sp (I might get rid of it when I root it though), whereas on my xperia t I mostly use the stock sony browser. Now, as for the ppsspp, it's actually a psp emulator. In other words, it allows you to run psp games (in .iso format) in your android phone. I think it's one of the best apps on the play store, since I don't like most native android games like temple run, minions and such. Since you have a note 4, which is a very powerful device, I highly recommend you to check it out.
This one IS coming from a developer.
Oftentimes, when I make an app, I saw a hole and I wanted to fill it. The most recent app spawned itself from the Droid Turbo not being rooted until now(finally).
People heard there was a root method so they were waiting on a hair trigger's notice to find out if it had been released. So I took it upon myself to let people know when it happened, where to get more info, and when it was released, how to get it for themselves. It spawned over 400 unique downloads on 15 different devices with an aggregate rating of 4.82.
I also like to improve on apps that I've already seen. If I feel something is drastically missing, I like to look at what they have and ask what I can do better with that.. then add what's missing.
Another example is an app I created that is made for creative commons photo sharing. So for example, when someone needs a picture for their design project, then they can simply open the app, search the word, and download. I came up with it for my senior project and we branded the whole thing, but it never went anywhere because it was unrefined.
In contrast to that reason, I often make apps because I'm testing something and it snowballs. I have a bunch of different "app pieces" in a handful of languages sitting around on my computer.
To summarize, I make apps because:
1. There's a hole and I'm going to fill it.
2. I want to improve what I see.
3. I'm simply passionate about it.
Hope that helps!
I did the nuke-it-and-make-it-usable upgrade. This is my first, so please forgive me if I don't use the correct terminology. I used FlashFire and uploaded SlimRom, SuperSu, and mini-gapps. It seems most of the apps I try to install says its not compatible with my device. Some apps I know are supposed to be there, don't show up in a search. Also, it kinda leans like it's a phone instead of a tablet. This may be normal, not sure there. Someone smarter than me, feel free to chime in. Am I doing something wrong, or did I miss a step? I used the tool from RootJunky. They gave this forum a lot of props and said you guys are the go-to peeps. I believe I got my files from the mirrors here. Amazon Fire 7", 5.1.1, Thanks in advance...
You pretty much would have to install the APK for each app that you cannot download from the Google Play store, part of the reasoning behind this is because Amazon Fire isn't officially supported by the Google Play Store, thus some apps will be unistallable via the app store.
You can download the APKs here: https://apkpure.com/app?hl=en
All the APKs should work. Just one thing to note would be that in the future, you'd have to reinstall the APK whenever a new update arrives for your app.
Best of luck!

So, in the background its still an Amazon Fire? I guess I just assumed by doing the new ROM, it would get rid of everything Amazon. That's what I get for assuming :laugh:. Thanks!!
Great question and thanks for the answer. This may not be related to the "505 error" but I noticed with apps like "Open Camera" that it says the device is not compatible, and now I know why!

I have since used apkpure and so far all the apps I have searched for has installed and worked pretty much like their supposed to. Thanks again!
Yeah, I had the same problem, particularly with "Google Play." Sadly, my local news channel app is not available there, but a lot of other apps I was having problems with were.
