Saw this over at droiddog and thought it was really worth sharing. It lets you download files with wifi and your mobile network at the same time.
Enjoy!
Super Download in the play store
Super Download on XDA
Edit: I see that I was beaten to the punch already. Feel free to delete mods

I am currently deployed to afghanistan and when I get my nook up and running, I check the market and it says no apps are available in your area. How can I get this fixed or a workaround? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
adb the apps over
Have wifi but Market downloads are being blocked.
I'm also in Afghanistan. I have wifi access but Market downloads are being blocked. They just hang saying "Starting download".
Is there another place I can get Market apps and download the the .apk file and then manually (adb) install them on my NC?
I'm running:
1.2
ManualNooter 4.5.6
Thanks.
There is an app called market enabler, not sure if it will help you or not, but it tricks the market into thinking you are somewhere or something else.
There is a site called Slideme, that has their own app market that you can download, I dont think anything on there is pirated, and it has alot of stuff.
Amazon has their own app store now too, go to their site enter your email, and they will email you a link to the apk for their store. Download and install, they have pretty much everything.
Good luck, stay safe, and thanks for your service.

there is also an app called location spoofer, it has worked for me within the states to watch blacked out baseball games. I here it helps with the Google Market over seas.
Google is very location specific for advertising, my guess is the market gets all screwy when you travel. Not sure tho..
I bet it was one of you NC owners over seas that put a plug in Binladens head! Nice job guys! Should go to the press and say "A rooted Nook Color troop dropped Binladen". You guys would definetely get laid!
Is there an app or mod to allow Wifi downloads over 3g/4G? I want to get the amazon free app of the day but I'm nowhere near Wifi.
Any and all information is greatly appreciated!

Ummmm
Wat
Did you turn off wifi then try to download? Shouldn't need an app...
You mean the "wifi connection required" message in the amazon app store?
I don't know of a way to bypass that. You would probably need a hacked copy of the Amazon app store. I use my phone as a wifi hotspot for my wife's iPhone when she wants to download a 25MB app.
Or maybe its controlled by the app developer, the same title is free on the Play Store and is marked as wifi download only, and its only 26MB. I want to say I've downloaded bigger than that before on 3G.

Something like Cydia's app? I've been wondering the same.
yeah amazon app store is stupid and requires WIFI to download anything over 20mb's =(. I wish they didn't do this.
On Android market it only "recommends" WIFI but at least it doesn't enforce like amazon/iphone.
I'ved looked for solutions and have yet to find any =(. All in All, amazon appstore fails. Apps are so far out of date most of the time.
There was a 3D game pre-instslled on my Thrill. When you open it and go to play it you got a message that you need to download the rest of the game, about 400MB. They forced wifi as the only option, and the download would cancel (not pause, actually cancel and delete the partial amount you did get) if you turned off the screen. Just one of the many fails to throw at the Thrill.
It would be nice if the Amazon app store just gave you a warning, or an option to enable it. Like the notification options that just changed. It would also be cool if there was a widget you could use to trick the system into thinking your data connection was wifi.

this app does nothing but enable/disable flight mode & clearing some memory.. i too used it a while ago..
Sometimes my dad grounds me from using some of my chat apps that i use to talk to all of my friends. He always checks the Google Play Store on my phone and looks under My Apps and then All so he can see if i've downloaded one of them. If i download it from the play store it will show up here, even if i've already deleted it. I used to be able to get around this by downloading the .apk file for the app from another website, and not from the play store. That way it wouldn't show up in the My Apps section. But the other day i did this and the app still showed up in the My Apps part of the play store, even though i didn't download it from there.
Does anyone know why this happened, and if there is another way to download an app so it doesn't show up after i delete it? Thanks everyone!

Yes that is because the market link is intact. You can use an app like titanium backup to remove market links easily so that they wouldn't show up on the play store app list.

Thanks for the response, thedisturbedone. I read somewhere that the new play store won't let you break links using titanium backup. Do you know if this is true? If not, can you please link me a page on how to do that? I really appreciate it.
I know there are apps out there for rooted phones that help you do thinks like turn on tethering, block ads etc.... I'm tring to figure out a safe place to get these apps. I'm not looking for pirated apps, I'm looking for legitimate apps that are not listed in the play store. I hear so much about people trying to download these apps from the internet and end up with virus's. I dont want to go down that road so I wanted to ask you folks where you prefer to get them ?
here at XDA
From the developer, or from where the dev trusts to distribute it.
Not a lot of software getting pulled from the store. Teathering programs and stuff you can get there....
The only thing you should need outside of the store is random scrips or modded programs where you should look for a dev thread/website which will have most recent version hosted.
Yeah there's very little I can think of that I can't get on the play store besides themed apps ands xposed mods.

Maybe give F-Droid a try. It's basically a catalog of apps that the Play Store no longer carries. Ad-Away is part of the catalog.
Moved to Q&A, please post all questions in here from now on.
Thank you for your cooperation:good::highfive:
