This is a simple question, per Google and play store policies, can I officially have two developers accounts?
I mean, I have a brother who is also a developer, and we would like to have one shared account, in the name of a fictitious company, and I also would like to keep my current individual account. Can we do that per the current Play Store policy?
PS: I also noticed one of my previous app conflicted with the norms, and unpublished it. Just after that, the application got automatically suspended, now I have two suspended apps, and I am afraid to continued using the account

These two sure seem like tasty features, only waiting for a developer to incorporate them to their apps. How come no apps use them yet? Am I wrong, and there is an app out there that do?
Found one, it's funny to see it show up in the Android sync menu

I'm not sure how to feel about C2DM and the way you sign into your google account after being directed from another site.
I know that Google doesn't share your password only your email address with whatever developer is using the google service.
However, this opens up the "precedent" that it's okay to sign into your google account from a link originating from random websites. So incredibly easy to phish accounts in that manner.

You do have a point, I hadn't looked at it from that point of view.
Android2cloud uses c2dm and is pretty neat. Would link but can't as my account hasn't been verified by mods yet.
File2phone will no doubt be very useful, not a lot of activity going on there tho by the looks of things!
I would have thought more apps would be using c2dm like Facebook for example to notify you have a new message or backing configs for Locale or Tasker to the cloud would be nice .... not much traction is dissapointing.
awaiting a msn app like ebuddy on the iphone, data connection doesnt have to stay open.
Hi All-
I've run into an issue with the Market that I haven't been able to find in the various market oriented threads here.
I rooted yesterday using auto-neuter 12.25 & everything worked great. I can youtube, I have my google apps email account syncing, I can download free apps from the market, etc. Angry birds is a real treat on the Nook color!
My problem is with trying to purchase paid apps from the market. Like many report successfully doing here, I want to get Titanium Backup pro & use it to backup the nook to a dropbox account. When I try to purchase from the android market, I am told to enter/create a gmail account vs using the existing gmail apps account. I have tried re-entering the google apps account data, but I seem to end up in and endless loop where it asked for the credentials, I supply them, it accepts them, and then brings me back to asking for credentials.
Does anyone have any insight into this problem??
It is my understanding you should use an actual gmail.com account for the primary account on android devices. This is probably the source of your issue.
So I have a Galaxy Note 5 that I like but occasionally had issues with, and while meandering around my Google account, noticed Google Authenticator was listed as an installed app on the Play Store. This app have have been the trigger for conflict with other authentication software on the phone, so I checked the phone for Google Authenticator, no go. Puzzled, I installed Authenticator with the sole purpose of removing it, which I did, then removed Authenticator from Play Store list but did not "uninstall it" or turn off two-step.
I do a wipe, the phone asked for my originally synched email, password............then 6-digit token . With no way to log in to the account, I can't access the app, etc., this loop is impossible to bypass.
I submitted a recovery request for the email address but my understanding is the recovery chances are slim. Why I am posting this is because I am trying to determine the best course for the actual hardware. After two hours with Samsung/Google/Verizon on the phone, I ultimately have Samsung agreeing to remove the Device Protection Lock so I can use the phone with a different email (or sell it).
Any practical suggestions to bypass the Device Protection Lock before I pack this phone up?

I hope that this it the right subforum for my question:
I want to release an app on the Google Play Store in a way that only the users I approve of can download it. According to Google's support website (sorry, doesn't let me post the link - just google "publish private apps", it's the first result) you can accomplish this by releasing a private app. My question now is:
How does it work for the approved users? Is there a way to set it up, so they can download the app through a link, no matter what organization they belong to?
Or is there no way around working with origanizations? If so, does this mean that someone in the company's IT appartment has to set up an account that approves of my app and every other user in the same company has to use the company's e-mail address to create a Google account and then join the organization to be able to download the app?
I know that I have to pay $25 to sign up as a developer but are there any "hidden" costs for users/organizations that use my app as well?
hello!
I have added new google account, removed old google account with which phone was first started&configured since it was new.
Now I have questions:
1. When thief stole my phone and do factory reset from recovery, which account will be needed to sign in (FRP)?
2. I have no apps in play store library, apps which was buyed on old google account are still usable. Is there any way to get all my installed apps into play store library (on new google acc.)
3. I feel that part of my phone still use old google acc. and another part use new account. Am I right?
4. Are any special samsung things to change here? I am asking because samsung have heavily modified android compared to stock.
Thanks for replies.

1) You can test FRP yourself,I think you know this already,The account that the phone was logged into when 1st setting up the phone is the one you'll need to sign-in on a reset.
2) App purchases are not transferable,but,this may help: https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/7007852?hl=en
3) No way of knowing,a very generic non-specific question. G-Mail has the ability to use several G-mail accounts,guessing you can sign-in to other apps w/various Google accounts,I don't have the need other that the G-Mail app.
4) Use your phone for a while & see what you like & don't like,then use the search function in the Note 9 section for related topics.
The one area I would suggest Googling (& look here & XDA as well) is Note 9 S-Pen Tips & Tricks,or,something to that effect.

Not sure why you want to change everything over to a new account, cause it's a pain in the ass. But here you go:
1. If someone performs an unauthorized factory reset, such as from Recovery or by flashing a firmware through ODIN, it will require the last Google account logged into the phone. Once you remove the first one from your phone, it's no longer on your phone. Whatever Google account you added afterwards or left on it will be the account that looks the device. It's easy to test. Go to accounts and try to remove the current account. You'll get a warning that device protection features will no longer work.
2. As far as using apps paid for from your old Google account. As far as I know, there's no way to transfer them over to a new account. Maybe if you call Google they can do that. Your other option is to log into your old account and set up a family plan and attach your new account. Just make sure you add all your apps on the old account to the family plan.
3. Once you removed your old account under settings, no part of your phone is still using it. It logs you out of that account. What you'll want to do is make sure all your contacts are synced with the new account so you don't lose them.
4. Samsung soes modify Android, but as far as doing anything special for Samsung things you shouldn't have to. Samsung typically keeps Samsung account stuff separate from Google account stuff. Now with Pie, you'll be able to log into your Samsung account using your Google account so you may want to associate your new Google account with your current Samsung account. That's probably done in your Samsung account profile settings, though I'm not really sure.
it's because I have a lot of VPN's and app data configured, it will take days to set all things again. or is there any way to backup all data and then restore it after resetting phone with new google account set?
so far as I know, some data is stored in secured partition where I don't have access, not even google
