Hello, i have a scenario where i need to purchase nearly 50 licenses of a sw from Android Market, for 50 Android phones that i will give to my users.
Im very confused, how should i do that, since to enter market you need a google account? I can't spend my days creating accounts for all users...
Thanks for any suggestion!
Any Suggestion?
You could contact the developer and ask. Or contact Android Market support and ask them what to do for bulk licensing. They may be able to give you a solution.
Sent from my Desire HD using xda premium
yes i contacted developer, no corporate licensing is allowed, they suggested me to buy all the licenses using the same gmail account, but doing that dozens of times would be an incredible waste of time!
which is the best way to contact Android Market support?
you're assuming that the support center would answer you, which they haven't deemed necessary for any of my requests so far... :/
cool, so basically i'm stuck unless any of you have other ideas...
Android really lacks from business point of view...
up? any news/idea?
Well I think the developer(s) will have my head for this but you can use AirDroid (check it in Market) to export the license app from the phone to a pc, (and back to the phone to the phone in a folder for safe keeping if you wish). After doing so, you can simply transfer the APK file from the PC (or from the directory on the phone where you might have saved it) to all your employees phones by whatever means you wish, be it bluetooth, usb, or through AirDroid again.
I live in a country that can't register a google merchant account. I have some free ad-suported apps, but I want to make an ad-free pad version.
I see two ways:
- a paypal donation for ad removing (but I read that it isn't legal and my accoutn can be banned)
- a link in my application to my website to buy a Pro add-free version (not everyone will install an .apk from some website)
Any other legal way to recieve money from users for removing ads?
Don't mess with z google!

I think the google terms of service basically forbids you from monetizing a paid version without going through them. I wouldn't try to work around this problem. Don't mess with google. I have an account that is still banned from Ad Words because some friends (6 years ago) started clicking like crazy on all of the banners on my website. So, don't try to do anything subversive, it won't pay off.
So, your real problem is to get a google merchant account. That really sucks that your country isn't able to get one. Is there any person or company out there maybe that could be a go-between from another country that can have a merchant account? I really don't see any other safe solution. Good Luck anyway!

I have some problem few months ago, however it's no longer a problem because few week later, i receive a notif with a good news that my country are supported so i can create a google merchant account.
But before, I also did some thinking on how to work around it, yet, can't find any way to do that which doesn't break google policy.
I can't suggest any way beside waiting and hoping that your country will soon supported by google (not useful enough, eh ?), who knows ?
Some idea come to mind though, if you ask someone from other country which supported by google, who kind enough to make a google merchant account for you, so you can access it Iater from your country when the account has already been made, I don't know if it works, anybody try something like this before ?
i recently bought a used device and when i tried to create a new jodel account, the app said i was perm banned. How come? Since i have root acces, i tried to change my device id / spoof my mc adress. But im still banned. So, how does jodel identify my device?
jodel: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tellm.android.app&hl=de&gl=US
thanks in advance
IMO you have to investigate app's source code to find it out.
dont know how. pls help
You use an APK de-compiler. Some online de-compilers exist but do only handle APKs < 50 MB hence not useable in your case.

i dont know how to use that. i just need to know, how jodel identifiys my device.
whre does it say what data they use to identify my device
@anonuser14 Here you find a review of Jodel written in German. As you're obviously using Jodel, I assume you speak German otherwise please use a machine translator. I'm convinced you'll find the answers to your questions about the absolutely privacy related desaster application.
yes, im german. first thing i did was reading the privacy note from jodel and i even asked the support. all they said was, they use my devide id, which is obvisly not the whole truth. im not a developer or something, all i know is how to flash a rom & root a device. so, all i need is an expert looking into this case and helping me. ( I attached the anwers from jodel)
If you're rooted and using Xposed (in whatever version) I suggest to spoof your device ID with XPrivacy Lua by @M66B like I do.
[CLOSED][APP][XPOSED][6.0+] XPrivacyLua - Android privacy manager [UNSUPPORTED]
XPrivacyLua Really simple to use privacy manager for Android 6.0 Marshmallow and later (successor of XPrivacy). Revoking Android permissions from apps often let apps crash or malfunction. XPrivacyLua solves this by feeding apps fake data...

so what now?
A Jodel account is tied to Device ID of phone it 1st time was installed on. Hence you can't use Jodel on another phone.
Also Jodel doesn't allow you to create multiple accounts, as you tried to do.
like i said, i bought a used phone, i did not try to create multiple accounts, and most important, its not tied to the device id, at least not tied to just the device id. i tried reinstalling the app, used privicy lua, changed the phone id, but jodel still can identify my device.
how?
what if i pay 10$ for giving me a solution?
pls help

until now, nobody seems to know, how jodel identifies a device
@anonuser14 As far as I remember, Mike Kuketz has briefly reviewed that app about two years ago. Here's a shortened quotation of his conclusion (German-English translation by https://www.deepl.com:
Yodel is a good example of how just starting an app is enough to get an impression of how privacy-friendly it is. My impression: miserable.
At least the information in the privacy policy is relatively transparent - privacy-sensitive users will therefore probably not use Yodel.

According to their manual the data is saved to the cloud, so it's probably not possible to use it without registration.

Sad when they sell product and discontinue it's funcionality
Hello there, I'm new here, I have a question.
When will the old Google Finance app for Android will be revived?
Because I wanna try that app to see if it works. It installs on Android 13, I opened the app and selected my account to sign in. And it said Network connection unavailable, even though I'm connected. Connected to my 5G network.
Then I explored the app, nothing works.
I tried accessing a stock, but it said Unable to load quote details from the network.
So, nothing works for now. Now, when will the old Google Finance app for Android will be revived? (I said).
The revived APK with fixed servers, improved support and support for newer versions of Android.
Thank you so much.

Google has killed many projects over the years. There will be no "reviving" of Google Finance - Google determined it simply wasn't in their business interest to continue the project.
Use something else.

Google won't revive it, but I said that someone can revive it. Maybe one day in the future.
The website still exists, as finance.google.com
But, the app no longer exists
Referring to the app, not the website

It's a Google product, Google retains the rights to that product, so someone with a lot of capital would have to buy the IP rights to that product. It's most likely not going to happen, especially not from anyone here on XDA.

What more can I say? The MSN Money app sucks in 2023, also this app not available in my country. Yahoo! Finance is crap as hell, and other apps aren't the same as GFinance app.

I understand, but there isn't much you can do about proprietary projects that have been killed by the parent company, especially when they still own the intellectual property and are unlikely to sell it.
I'm sure there are open source options out there.

I'm not a financial guru, I've just been around long enough to know that there is always someone who doesn't like the current offerings and decides to develop their own.
