Fieldrunners on android! finally! ok not free only 99 cents still a win
http://www.droidgamers.com/index.ph...utm_campaign=Feed:+droidgamers+(Droid+Gamers)
They can't change a free app to paid on the Market, so now instead of being free the 1st 24hours, it's going to be .99 cents then up to the 2.99 regular price.
should just make it amazons app of the day.
I'm excited! This was one of my fav games on my iPhone before it got 5 finger discounted off me.
Can't wait to play it on a 4.3 inch screen. Bring it, well worth 2.99 and glad to pay .99

It's not free anymore. Anyways, is there a way to get these games for free onto our device. This is my first android. I haven't done research yet so I'm hoping someone can give me some insight, I'm being lazy again. I'm not cheap just broke, haha. (OK I'm cheap too)

Just search for the app name with apk after it on Google or get 4shared from the market
Don't call me cheap I have bought apps before...

LoL it cracks me up how people will spend hundreds of dollars on these smartphones, screen protectors, expensive cases, insurance over the course of a contract hundreds more. As soon as you ask them to pay $.99 to support a dev giving them an app to enjoy in this case(or better their experience with system apps)it is all of a sudden too much to ask.
THERE ARE THOUSANDS of free games and apps if you can no longer afford a few dollars every so often stick to those.

It costs developers time and money to produce an app. Why is it wrong for them to ask for a small fee? People don't want ads, but then complain when a developer wants to put out an ad free product at a nominal price. And what you were talking about in your previous post is piracy. I understand not having money. In that case if you don't have the money to buy something don't, but also don't think that makes stealing it ok.

Regardless, use common sense. Do you really think going to a DEVELOPER SITE and asking to pirate apps is a good idea?
Not to mention against the rules

Pirating these games is just assholish if you ask me. Just pony up the 99 cents.
So none of you pirate videos, music, software, games or anything like that then do you. If you do, don't say its different because its not, your a hypocrite. I do donate to ROM developers on here, nothing huge, usually $5.
Also, maybe i should specify that I don't care for the games they have on the app store. I would prefer PS1 games or if possible PSP games. Maybe that will change your minds, I got rid of robo defense right away and I dont want this fieldrunners game. I dont do angry birds or any of those, so sorry I wasn't clear, but I bought my fair share of PS games and I feel I can get them back on my phone for fun.

No, I don't. Besides, you run a much greater risk of picking up some malware or something with those stolen apps you find.

Just a word to wise, asking how to get free paid apps on a Developers site is an instant flame.
Cmon man, you're a Senior member!!!
Honestly, its just $0.99. Give up a cheeseburger or fries for one day and you get the real deal.
I admit I pirated a couple of apps, BUT I do eventually buy them to get the updates or if I use them more than a day or two.
Im not really keen on paying $5 for something ill only use once, or god forbid 16 minutes. A lot of apps I noticed are fighting piracy buy selling a key or license to unlock the full version. That's fine with me.
I agree people have money for internet and cell phones but wont pony up a dollar for a game. I think you need a job or go back to school to get your life together.
What part don't you guys get, I don't want the $.99 cent apps. I read they have older PS1, Nintendo etc games that have been converted to play on phones. I also seen it on the apps store to get the downloads for $4.99 but to me that seemed odd. The app wasn't for the games but for an app to DL the games. I thought I was clear I didn't want this app so for people to continue to say $.99 I don't get it. Also, if you think I care about flame then your wrong. I'm helpful to people, and mean to those who are arrogant, so if you think I'm being arrogant then it doesn't bother me at all if your hating on me. We all have opinions, I'm asking for an answer and the smartest on i got besides the .apk one, was about the viruses.

Haha, dude.. If you where a developer wouldn't you want done type of compensation for your efforts? If you want something that bad just party for it. We are lucky more of these guys do all of this for us without asking for anything in return. That said, 5$ for a rom is not that bad man.. Thats less than 1 meal at a fast food place.
Support android, support our phone and the developers who make it better and better daily. I don't know, just my take on the situation.

Just asking but how much are you paying for cell service? How much did you pay for the phone that came not fully functional? Seems if you want to OC to 1.3 and have it fully functional $5 is a small price to pay considering the amount of work involved.
I'm with the OP on this one. I think it's retarded to pay a subscription to be a "premium member". I don't know why people felt they needed to attack the OP....to each their own I guess.
I dont think they attacked the op, but most of this community knows that developers put alot of hardwork and effort into kernels, roms, ect. They have to put up with complaints, and people whinning. They have to offer assistance for issues, and asnwer thousands of questions. 5 dlls is a small fee to pay

I'm sorry if you feel we are attacking the OP. Do a quick search and you will see he has posted this same topic several times in the last 24hrs. Maybe that's part of the reason. In my opinion, if he want's that extra bump it would seem like a small price to pay. Phone is plenty fast enough for most users at 1.2 and that's free thanks to the contributions from users and the kindness and dedication of the developers here. Just my 2 pennies.

Yeah, at least for me, I have no problem paying developers for their hard work, but over the course of a year, 5 dollars a month becomes 60 dollars which, yeah, is really more that this is worth, especially if we want to spend it on other things as well (other software, etc). Just saying. 5 dollars once is one thing, 5 dollars / month is another.
I don't really understand what the problem is here, ask king for his code. It's the beauty of the GPL. It would be nice to get that code, Eugene's 2.2 kernel source and that nice I9000 filesystem mod all together in a neat little kernel for 2.2 on the vibrant.

the way things are going with htc, motorola, etc. locking the roms with acutal hardware - whats the point.
if we keep gabbing over 5 bucks what is going to keep devs willing to spend their time and brains, if people are going to cry about it once they release it.
pretty soon it won't be the developers or google we are yelling about it will be the handset manufactur and the provider.
What gets me is there are several people over at KKs board right now that have paid and have received no password for platinum access nor has anyone even tried to help. That isn't right.
If you head over to kks forum under the Vibrant development you'll see several people that have paid days ago with no password nor any help. Not cool.....

My thoughts are scattered. At one point i'd say a 1.2 oc is not going to pale much in comparison to a 1.3. My other thoughts would be a one time fee is more reasonable but also harder to swallow. Would you rather pay fifteen dollars straight up or monthly cost. I can't see anyone paying fifteen straight up.
Other thoughts. It's disappointing how much well get for free and are not satisfied. However I think donating is a good way to show appreciation I do not believe these things should be done with the intention of making money but if they at putting this much time into it and not getting enough donations to make it worth it to where they have to feel the need to charge. That's just too bad. In the end if you don't like the cost of a product don't buy it...

I love my phone locked to the carrier that charges 10 cents a sms for 160 character e-mail. Let's just assume that a 1ghz smart-phone needs to be a quad core 4.0 with 2 gig internal ram. So I can play 3d games on a 4" screen while I work in open office on my power point pres. and sms and make a call at same time while my nice 27" computer is 20 feet away. I love having 10 old cell phones lying around love figuring out what the hell is this charger is for. For god sakes man please let me give US $$$ to the Asian countries instead..............

Hey at least your getting your sleep OTA update. I'm still lost due to my bad GPS update and don't get me started about my frozen yogurt. I'm just trying to get a better taste in my mouth!
I don't see the point of OC-ing any more. We only have one dev doing kernels. Also because once we like 1.4 GHz stable, then those same ppl asking for that kernel is gonna be complaining about the battery being drained too quick. U can't please noobs...its impossible to keep noobs .just my .02 opinion
So my 4yr old was playing spiderman today and he always asks for help, so of course I help. I notice he's on a part I haven't seen before. Usually he can play until the first boss then it wants you to purchase the full version, blah blah blah. So I can't figure how I have the full version now. I certainly didn't buy it. I checked gameloft site and said forgot password and it don't have an account under my email. You can also check your downloads using your phone number and no downloads exist.
Now I know you're probably going to laugh and say if I didn't pay wtf am I questioning something free? It's just the fact I have no clue how I have the full version and its bugging the **** out of me. LOL I know I'm crazy or ocd I guess.
Well if you get charged for it we will know what happened. Otherwise it's a gift from the 3d gods.

Yeah probably your kid. You can either bill the account or the card on file (usually). Keep an eye out for a random charge.
I bought Asphalt from them and gameloft charged my sprint account saw it on the next phone bill.
Actually...it's funny that you mention this because the same exact thing happened to a Co worker of mine. He was playing the trial version and somehow the game didn't stop him like it normally did after the first round, it let him keep playing and we were both laughing about it but it just let him play the full version somehow and he didn't buy the game , we both work for sprint he didn't see anything on his bill either for Gameloft...seems like it was a gift from the 3d God's afterall

Ok, so I just checked my bill and there is indeed a $4.99 charge from gameloft(little **** must have bought it). When I check gameloft site using my phone number it doesn’t show any downloads. It doesn’t recognize my email address either.
If I remove the game how will gameloft know I actually paid for it?

omg it's *bo*e*pert! he caused a bunch of drama back in the day on the nook color forums when he started selling instructions or sd cards or some ****.
Honestly though. We are just bumping him up on google rank when we link to him. So don't do that.
But really, who cares? Let the people that think it's worth the money pay if they are too non-technical/lazy/time constrained or whatever to spend ~3 seconds googling "nook tablet root". He's not even gonna get ranked unless we all freak out and give him a lot of buzz for google's crawler to eat.
Also, IANAL but I'm not sure how it's fraud. It's just really douchy.

Agreed. I don't see the problem with it. Heck if I could make it into a side business I would. As others have said, they aren't selling the work that others have made, they're charging for their time, knowledge, gas (in a lot of cases they will travel to you) and convenience to root/hack/mod a phone that the owner doesn't want to do themselves. Yeah they can read some forums and do it themselves, but if they're willing to pay for it, it means they're either lazy and don't care or aren't technically inclined.
Some phones really aren't as simple as you would think to root and simply install wifi tether, for example. Downloading drivers, reading the root process for that device, downloading the scripts and tools, copying files to and from the phone, rebooting and the wait adds up into a lot of time and sometimes frustration. A lot of people don't want to deal with it, and if I'm going to learn all of that and sacrifice my time for someone I don't know, I want to be compensated.
I worked for Data Doctors (computer repair business) and while our prices (not set by me) were a little expensive, people gladly paid it because they didn't know how nor could they be bothered to fix the system themselves. That's business.
it took my around 5 hours the other day to figure out how to root, s-off and flash a custom rom on the Amaze. If I had already started my new job I would definitiv have paid the $15 to save me 5 hours of time.
Times are hard and knowledge is power.
If this guy knows what he's doing why not let him do it?
I think it's f*ed up that you flagged just because you're an XDA member who "supposedly" knows better.
He's trying to make some money off of his knowledge.
I mean, just because the information is here doesn't mean everyone who reads it understands it or could implement it.
Some people are not technology inclined.
YouTube has videos on how to do almost everything but just because you watch doesn't mean you'll be able to do it.
What was wrong with him trying to make money from the time and effort he invested into understanding the rooting and unlocking process of a phone?
Honestly..flagging him was a d**k move.

For me, I want to know how to root and flash my own ROMs. Without knowing how to do things yourself you're stuck with whatever this guy loads on your phone, and isn't that the point of rooting, being able to load custom ROMs.
be proud of your work cause shearing is caring i learned a lot form xda i do get paid to fix my friends phones for them but when i get paid i save it just for XDA DEV who's work i used to do the job it's not stealing it's called Redistributing & dev can always spot there work from a mile away i used to burn movies and sell it on Craigslist i even posted adds on hacking any games on android with gamecih ^_^ wow those were the days i would ask $20 a pop lol 1 day i had over 15 calls lmfao like ice cube said TODAY WAS A GOOD DAY
+ thanks to gay Bush n homo Obama
the economy is Focked
i don't wanna sell drugs / rob people not when i got 2 kids
now i work 13hr shift 6 days a week

Times are hard and knowledge is power.
If this guy knows what he's doing why not let him do it?
I think it's f*ed up that you flagged just because you're an XDA member who "supposedly" knows better.
He's trying to make some money off of his knowledge.
I mean, just because the information is here doesn't mean everyone who reads it understands it or could implement it.
Some people are not technology inclined.
YouTube has videos on how to do almost everything but just because you watch doesn't mean you'll be able to do it.
What was wrong with him trying to make money from the time and effort he invested into understanding the rooting and unlocking process of a phone?
Honestly..flagging him was a d**k move.

Full Sail is an accredited university to my knowledge. Don't do it just for Dev work though since you don't really get paid for that...Maybe you can make the next angry birds though.

I was thinking the same thing about going. I think once this semester is up I'm going to switch schools....again
This will be my third time I just don't go and switch schools every semester lol
We can be classmates :highfive: lol
It's a for profit university, meaning it's a ripoff.
Granted devs do not get paid but out in Hollywood there alot of jobs looking for devs 0.o and ppl are amazed i can root my phone lol ppl call me to root stuff so i figured if i gey the dev part down i could make roms specific to the person's need/want and a good experience in life maybe
I know someone who went there. It's expensive.

How? This is a entertainment focused school many people have graduated from it now doing high budget movies, music, tv, advertisements and games.
With tuition I was told I get a non-activated android device which I'm assuming is a galaxy nexus or nexus s a macbook pro and an ipad.
I'm condidering something.

Try theming first. A lot of the XML you edit will get you basic programming knowledge. If you enjoy making edits to XML, then you'll probably like a career in programming.

For profit schools try to charge you as much as they possibly can while giving you the cheapest education of the lowest quality they can get away with.
To maximize their profits, you know.

Isn't this every school in the world?
I mean why does harvard charge almost $5,000 per class.. Are they really teaching better than say UNCC which is $500 per class..

No. Regular universities get the best educators they can afford (and Harvard being one of the richest schools in the world can afford some of the best ones, hence their higher tuition prices.)
For profit schools' first priority is turning out profit.
just to give you an idea, I am going to school for computer programming at my local community college. It is costing me $1700 per semester at that price over the 2 years that will be $10,200. My brother is going to a for profit college, Stevens henager, and will be paying around $82,000 for the same degree which is non transferable. Seems to me that it would be a no brainer. But what ever makes you happy I guess

I work for a for-profit school, and without going into detail:
1. Profit
2. Education
i graduated form there with a bachelor of science in computer animation. not a bad school. you will work your ass off. class are scheduled in 4 hour blocks 24 hours a day. class are one month long. you normal do two classes a month. you can not work. every thing you get you pay for the macbook and the ipad and nexus is incorporated in the amount you pay for school. last time i checked they do not have dorms.
you are responsible for your entire tuition after the first 6 classes. normal college is a cake walk compared to this school. but they do have some of the best teachers that you will find.
half my professors in the animation department were ex Disney lead animators
that is my experience going there in Orlando the online experience i have no idea
Why is the affiliate code "cheezburger" lol.

They have special prices for boarding on an apartment complex near them and plus you can always go back for free to update your knowledge when the times change and new methods or software come out

They're so "hip"
This is quite interesting. Going to school is not something I am really looking to do. I just want a hobby. I been looking up android themes and how to do. Has went well just yet but I am patient.
