Hello,
I have two phones , one Cat S60 and today, reciewed my new Cat S61.
I have installed same apps that i have on my S60, but, the problem is, many modded app or other unnoficial app have problems with the new android system. On my S60, it working very well.
For exemple, i have and old version of Pocket Informant (i supposed is a "cracked" version but not sure) and a Modded version of Hogwarts Mystery. Both crash instantly when louching the app. Have black screen for few seconds and return to android desktop and have a texte say the app have crashed. If retry, same crash and android said (in french: "Harry Potter s'arrête systémathiquement") i think trad is "Always Crashing". I have no problems on the S60 is running on Android Mashmallow (if i'm correct). Other user have similar problems with custom app like me on his Android Oreo 8.1 or it's specific to the News Cat S61 and will be resolved by future update?
Thanks in advance for your answer and sorry for my bad spelling ^^'
Sounds like the applications are incompatible with the new android. Keep sending the reports to the developers and hopefully some day they release new versions for new Android. If you are rocking some "cracked" soft, then it might just be an old- non-updated version of the app. Search for these apps on google play and purchase them, if you enjoy them. That gives the developers some well deserved money and motivation to fix the issues.

That i have maked for Pocket Informant. The reason i have a cracked version is i dont like the new interface of the calendar (and as need to pay for have all function, for gaving an old version of the app, needed to be a "cracked" because if isnt, even if you have paid the new version, the old (uncrackef) stay limited function. For harry potter (hogwards mystery) it just i whont paid anything ingame for advance in game or other. If the dev put this game on store and need to paid for have it and play "unlimited, i will pay for it, but... If you read how the game is working, it's just a scam for get maximum monney of people X). The mod make just infinite energy ingame and dont need to paid for advance in the game ^^.
So, it's not a Android "limitation" to make unable to have non official or modded apk . I will wait that get new version of my apps and see what happens.

Samsung is going to spend 3 Million US dollars as prize money to try to encourage developers to develop more apps for Bada.
My take is they should just use that $3M and pay OpenMobile for its Android Compatibility Layer or pay Myriad for it's Alien Dalvik so that Android Apps can run on bada, problem solved for the users and at the same time
Samsung will still make a profit selling apps on it's Samsung Apps store.
Both ACL and Alien Dalvik can run android apps on non android devices.
ACL demoed android apps running on Meego (nokia N9)
and Alien Dalvik demoed google apps and Photoshop for Android running on
a nokia N900.
Alien Dalvik will even demo Android apps running on,of all things, an Ipad.
(as if apple needed more apps)
So im just saying the money Samsung is using for it's app developer contest
might be better spent on using these available commercial solutions so that
Bada can use android apps without porting.
Problem with ACL and Alien Dalvik is that it's not available for endusers and are both targeted at Manufacturers and Operators.
For more details and videos

That's a good idea. How to get Samsung to recognize it now is a different story haha. You could send them a pm on Twitter or something and maybe they'll listen
Swyped from my GT-S5830 using XDA App
Good idea but i dont have twitter so would you do it?
I dont use twitter or facebook etc coz im paranoid
Could you do it?
BTW Myriad is out of the picture coz they plan make the android apps
work on other devices via online cloud services which i think sucks.
OpenMobile ACL does reside on the device and doesnt need an online connection to do its magic.

1 Million is only for the money prize of the contest that starts tomorrow.
(100'000$ for the first 10 application that reach 100'000 download, only for bada 2.0 apps)
http://developer.bada.com/events/bada2.0-Power-App-Race?rlWlfcp=duq&isReturn=Y
oh, so I guess they have abandoned the 3 million regular contest and started this top 10 most downloaded thing, which I also find wrong.
Browsing through Samsung Apps did not reveal any download counters for their apps. So.. I doubt they even got apps with 100k downloads thus far. And it does not say anything about apps having to be brand new. One could just recompile its app for bada 2.0 and re-submit it

on february I uploaded 3-4 free themes on samsung apps (before the invasion ),, after one month one of them has exceeded 100'000 download, recently I've checked the whole download counter and they have reach nearly 1 Million of downloads.
A free good app has more and more appeal than a nice theme, so this means even more downloads .
Anyway the constest criteria are 'funny', someone can simply submit his app and then create lots of new accounts and with them download his own app increasing his counter...
If there is a real possibility to have a dalvik vm porting on bada, better to pay for it than for that funny contest...
Aline Dalvik requires always on intertnet while OpenCL resides on the device.
Tsk sometimes i wonder if samsung really knows how to spend its cash to get the most out of it.
Ya porting of apps ...samsung should do it also i think new apps also should be there to make a new identity for bada not just all apps same from android.
I just want skype with calls and video, opera mobile and of course the new 3d games like eternal legacy (sseing how dvidearts wont port earth and legends to bada)

Is the project still running?? Or did samsung reject it as well??
Hey guys, sorry for the rookie question here but it seems so general that I'm having difficulty finding the answer.
So I'm new to android and read that your purchased apps are forever linked to your google account, so that you can always and forever use paid apps on all your devices.
I just want to know, will you always have updates to the newest version of the apps you paid for?
I've had weather bug elite since the middle of 2010, xda premium, and titanium backup since last year. Not the most updated apps but I still get updates.
Sent from my Hot Cream Sandwich
The short: Yes
The long: Only if the dev isn't a ****
An app gets a UUID of sorts when it's added to the market, so not only are those IDs tagged to your google account but assuming the dev updates the app the ID won't change.
Of course this doesn't stop a developer from renaming the app something else and uploading it to the market again.
Hi,
First of fall I've searched the forums and found no recommendations so far, except for this thread, which only lists the alternatives.
So, my issue is that many apps on Google Play are rendered incompatible with my Samsung Galaxy Nexus (Stock 4.0.4) after I've changed my DPI.
What I'd like is a good alternative to Google Play which:
i) Contains most of the apps on Google Play.
ii) Doesn't render them incompatible unless there's a compatibility issue with the Android version, or something more critical than changed DPI.
I don't mind using the list in the thread mentioned above, but I'd like to save time on testing by asking you for recommendations. Especially developers would probably know which ones they usually use in addition to Google Play.

There is no other market...
There are unofficial markets. I only found out about there being unofficial ones because of a news report saying how a lot of apps/games have been loaded with some sort of nastyware. For example, Angry Birds Space
worldwideweb.theinquirer.net/inquirer/news/2167511/cybercriminals-malware-infected-angry-birds-game-target-smartphone-users
With that in mind I wouldn't really try to venture too far down unofficial markets.
Here is an example, AndroLib, of an unofficial market: worldwideweb.androlib.com
Replace worldwideweb with appropriate meaning
There is absolutely no market comparable to Google Play, that has even remotely as much content as it.
Closest you're going to get is the Amazon App Store.
that market is really the worst thing on android. it has so many restrictions its outwitting itself at times. even under stock i couldn't download a ton of apps with my nexus. but when i sideloaded them it always worked.
what you can do is try hacks, there are several here on xda. i made one for my tablet mode topic, you might wanna try: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1543892 it works for me and a bunch of others.
you might want to try amazon market too
Thanks for the input, from all of you.
Apps loaded with malware isn't even an option, so I guess I'll have to stick with Google Play (and perhaps Amazon App Store).
@molesarecoming: Who's done the hack on the Play app you've linked? (I guess I'm paranoid about malware every time I download something, even on XDA).
i did it, but you can trust me ... i guess.
seriously, i had the same problem that you have right now and i did something about it, no evil intentions.
play store mod
about 2 or 3 days ago there was a post on portal about a moded play store
i think it was on i9000 forum
the moded store allows to install incompatible apps or apps that are for other countries.
i tried it and it was fine but i removed it because i didnt use it.
i think it might be helpfull for you

Thanks for the help. I'll try it out!
it's old, i know.
I use aptoide store and f-droid
f-droid is really small, but I support it in it's approach (open Software)
aptoide features alot of apps and actually I'm not missing much
NO google-software on my phone!

Aptoide is "quite" good, yes it has a lot of apps because they let people upload any app in their own store.
The problem is that they do not check that published app are owned by the people who publish it, so it contains a lot of hacked apps !
Other serious app stores: amazon, opera
Ok, I am looking at an online Android/iPhone app builder. They either offer the option to build one for free with unlimited downloads or you can pay yearly with different tiers for different download limits. The difference being that the free one has ads.
Anyways, when asked about just creating the app with their site, then hosting it on your own server and having everyone download it from there instead of paying the yearly fees, the site owner made this statement.
" my personal opinion in the long run you will pay more in this case because every time when apple releaes new iOS (like 6 now) or android has new phone (like samsung galaxy S 3 now) you will have to purchase new binary code from us that supports the latest updates/fixes."
Is this true? I don't see how each new device that comes out will require an update in your app.
Also, as stated, if you pay the yearly fee for the lowest amount of downloads, I assume they can only track downloads from Google Play or the Apple app store. I don't see any way they can track downloads from my own server hosting the .apk file. Anyone have any insight on this to correct me if I'm wrong?
For the record, I'm just looking to develop an app to play my Shoutcast Streaming audio station. I make no profit on the station, so have no capital to spend over $1K a year to have an Android and iPhone app. I mainly want to give it to my friends, and make it available to anyone who visits my Website. I really like the design that I did with this site, and am willing to pay something for it, just not worth $1K./year....
Anybody?
Have you tried installing the official Android Software Development Kit on your computer, and making the app yourself? You don't need to use an online service, and you choose exactly what gets compiled into the apk (ads, Google analytics, etc.).

Thank you for the reply.
I actually do have the SDK installed, and am looking into what it takes to make my own app. But, don't I have to know xml and Java to create apps using the SDK?
You do need to know those two languages.

Yes, it's kind of like Appinventor, all visual, just assemble the parts and stuff.
It's nice, just kinda pricey. I once posted the job on freelancer.com and got offers for about as much as this company is asking, and with freelancer I would have owned the app afterwards.
But, again, it's kinda hard to foot the bill when it's a non profit app.
Ok, I'm off to learn XML and Java.......
Oh, almost forgot.... the original questions...

any ideas anyone?
I think he means every time Google releases an update to Android (updated OS, not new device). So, for example, you build your app to run on Jelly Bean. But when Key Lime Pie comes out, your app may not work as expected on those devices running KLP. Then, you'd have to pay them to recompile your app with updated binaries, or risk losing market share.
If your app is really simple and would run fine on Android 2.2 and up, then that "purchase new binary" thing is not applicable.
But, hell, if you're willing to learn XML & Java... go for it!
Hey,
I will get my android device soon. It'll be HTC one M7 with Android 5.0.2
Im thinking about applications that should I install as im new to Android. I want to keep my data private and my phone very fast. Which applications should I use to keep phone "fresh" and secure? I will surely use some permission managers and Aptoide shop instead of Google play one. Of course there's root access. Im in computers and electronics for many years so I search for powerful applications, not idiot-proof that I see on GP shop. ROM will be Viper 8.0 but AFAIK this is not that important as version.
I was using jailbroken WP 7.5 and I was happy before but that system is deprecated now. I would like to customize system more but keep it fast as WP7 was.
I would also like to ask how to "ungoogle" the phone and disable crap like data synchronization to google servers etc.
I will also try to modify system as I know some programming languages
I will be happy to get any advices from You
Thank You in advance
Regards
Little bump because I think question is easy but it got digged.
