Hi All,
I'm not looking for cracked apps.
I have downloaded BlackMart and installed a cracked app, however it never gets updated, and i would like to buy it now. When i go to market it says its paid and just the install button is there. I tried to clear market data/cache, tried to clear the services data did a clear data/devlik cache after this, rebooted and it still says paid. I also removed my account from the accounts database restarted and setup the Google account again. go to market and its still showing it as i paid for it.
anyone have any suggestions.
Try creating a new Google account and attach it to the market

Use titanium back up to removed your cracked version. Then it should show up as not installed then buy.

this did not work. I tried to force attach to market, then wipe data and uninstall.
restarted and checked market, still said purchased.
I then tried to remove from market, wipe data, and restart and nothing!
I also have that issue where your market apps don't show up under "my apps" do you think that this part of the issue?
because when i login to market on the PC and go to my apps, I see apps on there that say they are installed, and they really arnt on my phone any more.
Suggestions?
You cannot simply uninstall because somehow the market thinks you purchased it as it attached itself to your google account, correct?
I would do as suggested and just use a different google account to purchase it. Of course you will then have problems updating it when you switch to the google account that syncs all your other data.
Maybe email the dev and explain you screwed up and wanna pay them $ if they know how to fix it?

Im having the same problem.. want buy swiftkey but can't get the option to buy in market... it say that i already purchase it.
Same issue
Hi,
I am having the same issue.
I have tried the cracked versions of the apps and now I genuinely want to buy them but I cannot.
I'd never feel comfortable using a cracked app on my phone. I don't know if anything malicious can be done to them (cracked apps) that might harm my device, but the prices on most apps are so low, I'd rather not risk it.
Besides, after having been a member here for a while and reading the work that goes into development, it just doesn't seem right to steal the work.
My take, spend the 2-5 bucks, reward the dev effort, have the security of knowing your app is genuine.

Ill have to disagree. I have tried free apps and they were so bad I would so kick myself if I had paid for it. There should be a requirement that there has to be a free app and a paid. No paid only apps should be be allowed. Free with dumbed down features until you buy a key is the way to go.

No solution, I am thinking it has to do with my market being broken, (I cant see my apps) however if you do not have this issue then there goes my theory
So I sbf'd today and went to newest 2.3.5 leak and installed eclipse! Living it. And I got my apps back!!! I did not have them earlier today so I really don't know how they came back but I'm still having the issue with the cracked app. :-(

I solved the problem of empty list uninstaling the blackmart... but that dont have any relation with not being able to buy some apps
If you use a root explorer/file manager and go into system/apps you should be able to delete the apk file from there at the source. If that doesn't work its got to be a market issue. Good luck
I had same problem, and got it to work downgrading market version
Like some guy sugested me in this topic: forum.mobilism.org/viewtopic.php?p=936431#p936431
Here is a thought: pay for your apps? How much was this 'cracked' app you installed? 99 cents? 5 dollars? If you cannot afford that, then cancel your cell contract and save some money because you obviously need it.
Every app has a refund period after purchase, and almost all apps have a free version you can try out.
Even if you get stuck with an app you don't like, you spent what, a dollar? A few dollars? Uninstall it and wait for improvements, you already own the app. Cracked apps and warez are for pathetic losers who wanna be cool or are not man enough to pay for what they want. Support your devs.
I can't believe this thread is even here.

I've had this issue on my last device. Whenever you flash a new rom and sign into amazon it register's it as a new device. There is a limit to how many devices you can have registered on amazon. You need to go into your amazon account on the computer and clear out some of the devices registered and it will work.
thanks that was it.

Couldn't complete download, stop or uninstall Amazon app. Phone woulnt even do a factory reset from h-boot. Took it to the store and they replaced unit as they couldn't fix either. Totally weird, but at least I got a replacement

It really infuriates me that today's phones are becoming the target of malware / spyware as bad as PC's. Before long we will be seeing fake anti virus alerts and everything else now common on desktops & laptops. If I were able to develop software, the last thing I would do is put crap like that in my software for a few cents revenue. /ENDRANT

Technically, if anything, it's akin to adware. But technically it's legit. I am all for in app ads, but to spam me with crap when I'm not even using the app is too much. Adding to that, there are even more ads in the game. I recommend that before uninstalling that you rate the app 1 star and leave a short review stating this app uses airpush to put garbage in your notification bar.
Thanks for that idea, I'm going to start doing that, I rate apps occasionally.

Thanks, had this popping up with a green plus sign in my status bar. Removing "Android System Tools" the ads have seemed to stop.
I had this problem and asked here as well.
I found out it happens when I run in combo; Adfree and then run "Bloat Freezer Free"

If you are talking about the original Bloat Freezer by Trey Holland, then you are being duped, FYI.
Bloat Freezer has data forwarding to ad sites built into its framework. That's why it was yanked from Google Market. There is an imitator app with the same name now on Play, but look at the comments and you'll see that Trey is still pushing his apps.
Here is an XDA thread where I show this to be true, backed by other users.
Here is androidunderground article attesting the same thing
Edit: And I just now saw that you specified "Bloat Freezer Free" which is indeed the offending app. Get rid of it ASAP and find another way to freeze. Titanium Backup does it (although not as well, last I checked. That is what makes it so irritating. The app was well engineered and didn't need the underhanded theft to justify its existence).

Its not samsung apps lol
those are just to set up your email/on line accounts
the ones with the star and "youve just won.." are apps from the market
or if you downloaded a "paid app" for free it could of been modified to push air ads

You really think samsung is gonna release phones with air push ads???
c'mon use logic
the notification icons you are getting is to set up samsung acounts and online services with them..... dont call them ads people actually use those services
you could turn them off if youd like

Ok so all the ads i see pop up are samsung. Ha. You have no idea what u are talking about. The very first day i got the phone all stock apps were installed and i got the ads that night. When i uninstalled samsung apps and featured app it stopped and i havent gotten any. A few weeks later i installed them and what do u know....i got the ads. Little green plus sign and orange and red star. I know my phone and how to use it so idk where u get off saying i dont know what im talking about.

Then to help the rest of the community out, why not run Addons Detector and let us know which Samsung app is giving the airpush ads? Seems nobody else has mentioned it that I know of except you. That would also settle the argument. A screenshot would say it all.

How am i supposed to do that. I have the airpush detector but it has no apps in it. Doesnt register anything. Had one the other day but say what the source was. Was getting them 4 to 5 times a week when the samsung and featured app was installed. Took it off and havent had anything.

Good luck with this - sure seems like you've done everything on your end to fix it. Have to admit I'm curious why you have two accounts with the same credit card. Why not just consistently use the one that works?

Did your dad delete his credit card from the Amazon account?
I kid, I kid... <-- get it I kid.... never mind slow day at work I guess.
I stopped using Amazons App Store when I found out they stole the name from Apple. Actually it was when all the free apps turned lame..
No doubt about the lame part. They used to have utilities and stuff (functional stuff that is). Now it is almost all crappy games with privacy concerns and horrific ratings. Every once in a while a decent game is listed, but not very often. There was a run on to-do lists. 'Cause having 50 to-do lists is pretty efficient right?
I recribbed s notice that said a update was available for my is this morning and the only iron out gave was to install note or later I hit later and then it brought up a click to set the update for. I see no way around it . I'm rooted with stock rom. There's got to be a way to disable the update but I don't know it and hopefully some person will share this with me cause I don't want to lose root and don't want the update. Come guys help a guy out. Might be simple but it's something I've never had to deal with before now. Thanks. Jesse
