[Q] Accessing the US Android Market outside the USA? - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
Hoping someone can help,
I recently picked up a Galaxy 10.1 (3G), and am battling to get to the US market for applications.
On my Desire HD its as easy as installing MarketEnabler and setting it to T-Mobile, but cant seem to find any information for Honeycomb Tablets.
Has anybody been through this and found a solution?
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Ryan

Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Is your Desire rooted???
If so just download the apps apk file and then transfer it over bluetooth to your Tab and install it.

if his desire wasn't rooted he wouldn't be able to use market enabler.
anyway, I've had mild success with market enabler on my tablet. you definitely have to clear data for the market before it will work.

Thanks Chaps - will keep on trying.
Would love to crack the jackpot

Everyone's so short with ever post on this site... But, that's why we love it.... Right!?!?!

Take your sim out. Use a vpn with US IP. Even if you use vpn but not take out sim you will end in the free apps market. and also stop market and clear cache in settings applications. You can also try to find an ATT TMobile sim card. I had one non activated which had come with my old Iphone.

[Q] NFS Shift

I have a nfs shift apk that works great on nook. Can i post it on here for others to download . Its not the one from the market. I downloaded it a while back for my vibrant. Don't recall where i downloaded it before.
Is it a paid app?
Nope do not post here dude, you will get banned.
@funkyreuben
Because yes it is a paid app so it is illegal. You can PM people who want it, but don't post in the public forums I guess. If you get caught though, thats your own business.
K wont be doing that then. I've read here n there that the one I had was free. Idk Its the app that came on a phone. I think it was a droid or something not sure.

Hmmm, well I think if you get it from the market it has to be paid. No hard feelings though
I purchased nfs on g2 through market but can't see it on market with nook... ....any suggestion? And can't send it to my self either
Sent from my Nook using XDA App
If you could PM it to me, that'd be awesome
I would also be grateful for a working apk.
Would like to try this out as well.
Thanks!
You guys trying to get XDA sued? OP was told the app is a paid for app, not to be distributed here, and you're still blatantly wanting to share it...
If you want it that bad, google is your friend, but please don't screw up a good thing (XDA).
I was actually trying to figure out how to get an app that has been paid for but not showing in market working on nook....would love it on nook but i would like it on there the legit way like on my g2

There should be some sort of "fair use" where if you've purchased it you can install it from wherever you can find it but I'm gonna guess that most people would just do the second part and forgo the first.

[Q] Please Help

Hi. I'm a newbie, however, I do have some knowledge of rooting and the like. I didn't see an answer to this question at the Samsung Fascinate Android Development page, and I wasn't authorized to post this question over there, and I'm hoping that someone can give me an answer to this question:
Is there anyway to upgrade a Verizon Samsung Fascinate to Android 2.2 "Froyo", while retaining PDANet "undetected" functionality, and, to also keep your "SlingPlayer Mobile" application functioning, without having to re-purchase it at the Android Market?
I can't thank all of you enough for directing me, or informing me of the answers to these questions.
Thanks again.
First off this was right place for this question, not dev. There are kernels that have the fake monitoring module in them like jt and adrenalynes which keeps it undetected...and I dont know about second question, does froyo not support the sling box app?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
As for the.second question sling player works fine with froyo. I'm not totally sure where your concern is but your purchase is tied to your google account. If you add the account to your new phone/OS you can restore all of your purchased apps

Thank you both very much. From here, I can figure it out...fingers crossed.
Thanks again!

Hi,
I'm off to Portugal on the weekend (lucky me!) and I need to navigate about 150 klicks from the airport.
I don't really want to spend hundreds of pounds on mobile roaming data so wondered if there was a way to download the entire route in Google Maps or Navigation before I leave?
If not anyone know of a free, or at least very cheap, alternative that will allow me to do this?

1). Rule 1: Search before posting.
2). Nothing to do with the Samsung Galaxy S II.

Apologies I posted here as sgs2 user sorry if wrong.
I was more after recommendations from people in the know as I already knew from Google there is a frankly bewildering array of options.
I have no idea what is the best course and usually find XDA a great place to ask, thinking other sgs2 users may have dealt with something similar in the past.
Many apologies that this is not OK. Will remember for next time.

I'm not saying XDA isn't a place to ask (if you've already searched and couldn't find anything, which I find hard to believe). But there's loads of forums on XDA and your question is not specific to the Galaxy S II. For example, there is a general Android Q&A forum, amongst others.

good try
im pretty sure you're not going to get any help here.
if you did in fact bought the app, you already know that you can redownload from the market (google play) without needing to repurchase the app.
Market often tells me I can't download an app (uninstalled) it considers I have it installed; sometimes even saying I've already purchased it if I haven't had said app yet... screwy

Yes it erases when you do a factory reset. The market knows if you've bought it or not and should automatically install it when you connect. If all else fails, you should have your reciept in your gmail account.
I wish they would give you a trial version just for the simple fact its so expensive. But dude, no1 is going to give you an apk of someone else's work, especially work that is a PAID app on the market.....If you really want to do that a quick google search of "SPB Shell 3d free apk" will get you what your looking for.
Since you purchased the app from the Play store and it's currently installed, I'll let you in on a little secret - Titanium Backup. If you already have the app purchased and installed, just back it up using TB to your SD card. Format all you want, then reinstall TB from the market (since it's free, the store should let you download it how many ever times you need to). Just point TB to your backup folder, then restore the launcher. Just as long as you're rooted when you install your new ROM, you'll never have to worry about downloading the app from the market again.
If you're wanting someone to give you a copy of the APK, good luck finding your ROMS and help on another forum.
Here's how you do it: you don't. Even if you're rooted, installing a launcher from the store will not un root you. It would need root permission for that, and you cash tell it no. If there is an issue email customer service. Don't ask for wares or black markets. It will get you banned, in more than one place.

Rooting a Coby Kyros MID7042-4

Does anyone know how to and have the files for it? I made the mistake of purchasing one for my bestfriend who looking to join the army and its a piece of ****.
The majority of the apps either won't install (from amazon getjar or 1mobile) or stop working. the camera doesn't work with anything nor can any app or website find a location. I want to return it be he refuses to let me as "its a great gift" in his opinion.
I've looked online for the instruction and files but every site that I seem to find is offline.:banghead:

I'm also looking at this tablet, to go as my car stereo, but will definitely not do it if there is no root. I'd almost bet that this root and recovery work with this tablet, as well...
