I didn't think this was piracy, they are running a promotion. If it is, I can take it down.

its not promotion..Its the new way to make money off paid by giving it for free......developed by Getjar....its not piracy at all,I dont know how it works....I downloaded BW from there long time ago and still running rock solid...

Guys, this is not piracy, it's a new "Gold App Sale" by Getjar. There's some great apps in there too!

the only thing i cant get to download on the TP is Tapatalk
edit: anyone know a quick download code?

Seems like some cool apps here not sure how to get them on the touchpad though as it doesn't seem to be a supported device.. Any ideas? Where do I get the getjar app I don't see it on their page anywhere...

use the default android browser and make sure you have it set to mobile. when you browse to http://m.getjar.com it will auto download the apk and you can install that way

Same here, get the message "no compatible downloads for unknown android 2.3"
Sent from my Touchpad using xda premium

I was able to get Tapatalk, although it gave me an error the first time I tried.
I was also having issues downloading at first using Dolphin browser, but using the stock browser it worked just fine. The first time I tried to DL an app, it said I needed GetJar and linked me to the file.

do you think you can use your PC browser and the quick download code and post it here? what device do you have it set to? I'm currently set on "Free Download".

Love the folks that cry piracy w/o FIRST checking the link. Stop policing unless you're a mod.

so.... how they make money on such promotions "paid for free"?
those apps are modified or all-the-same like orginal android market versions?

they're different in the fact that they are currently updated very slowly... getjar just made it available to have developers push their updates... before, you had to know there was an update and redownload the app... i got my first push yesterday, so i see it's working
getjar makes money by sponsors... you'll see them throughout the site

Same problem as other, when i search/enter the code for the app (in my case it's Tweetcaster Pro, Tapatalk and Splashtop Remote Desktop) i get the "no compatible version for my device" text which is ridiculous because i have a Captivate and the Android Market shows those apps just fine. Any ideas? Can someone post the .apk i mean if they are free its not illegal right? And also if i get the .apk, will it update automatically when with the new push system from GetJar?

Thanks, it only worked for Splashtop, TweetCaster Pro and Tapatalk keep saying the device is not compatible i mean wtf!?!? I tried with GS II and Galaxy Nexus and both say not compatible. Anyone that has already downloaded Tapatalk from the GetJar app can tell me the device they are using and the name code so i can modify the Build.prop and download the app.

ro.product.model=GT-i9100
ro.product.brand=samsung
it has worked with everything in getjar... i have a crash here and there but they all have downloaded...
if you've changed this... reboot... it took awhile for google's android market to see the change... i probably restarted 3 times... even went into webos once and back to cm7...
the only thing i've had a problem with working at all (it did download) is Advanced Task Manager
i get:
Sorry! The application Advance Task Manager (process con.arron.taskManager) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
edit:
just tried another app... Aces Jewel Hunt downloaded and installed but closes right after the splash screen opens

Yhea i tried with that. i wasn't able to download the Splashtop before changing the build.prop and after changing that and rebooting i could. But i couldn't download the other two apps, i mean i even tried going on the browser to getjar.com and changed my device to the i9100 and even there i can't seem to get the code for the download because i get the same message that my device isn't compatible and im talking about the PC browser. Im gonna change again to the i9100 on the phone and wait a day or so and try again from the app, i don't understand why i have to do all this the app should be compatible.
Thanks again for the suggestions though

[Q] Words with Friends broken since TW Update

Ever since I updated WWF after the TW update, I get an error connecting to the servers and can't play any games. I have tried a forced close and clearing cache. anyone else having problems with this? If so, does anyone have any solutions?
Thanks

I had to update in the market place to fix mine. Works perfect now.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using XDA Premium App
I played last night and everything worked great, even got push notifications for the first time. WWF definitely needs a paid version for android to get rid of those annoying adds.
That and I can receive chat messages but I can't send them.

Sent from my GT-P7510 using XDA Premium App
after doing the update from the market, i was able to send messages. I couldn't do anything without it FC or giving me network error message from the version that was loaded with Touchwiz.
How did you guys get the version from the market to update the TW version? When i go out to the Market "Open" is the only option I get.
when you go into settings>applications what version do you have installed? I am running 3.61
Mine shows up as 3.59. Funny thing is that the Market version says 3.61 but "open" is the only option I get.

Try clearing the cache for your market and see if it will come up
Mine is version 3.59 as well.
Same issue when I go to the market.
I just emailed the dev.
When are these adds going to be dealt with?

I removed my stock version and installed it again from the market. I pulled and zip the apk. Extract and install from from your sdcard.
I can't try it right now, but I will check it out later. Thanks for taking the time!

Naked, work was blocking the download. After getting impatient I tried logging into the Android market on my PC and forcing an install on my tablet. It worked like a charm! I am now running 3.61. I am testing it now, but I have yet to get an error.

Sweet, glad you got it working. Good idea on doing the web page market and forcing the upgrade. I'll keep that in mind in the future.
I have seen often programs not able to update properly when they are located /system/app. Since the it was part of the upgrade to TW, they have it located there.
The install from Market worked great for me as well.
Never knew you could do that.

TripleTapper, can you please explain more? Now do you "force install" from the market? It just tells me that my Nook Color is incompatible with the app, and the buttons are greyed out.
Thanks.
I just opened the Market using the browser on my PC. When I do that and search for Words for Friends I click on install. It then gives me an option to install onto my various Android devices by selecting it from a pull down. My Galaxy Tab comes up as Samsung GT-P7510.
Words has been working flawlessly now! : )

I got my to download just fine. Of course, I've changed my build prop.

i bought it a little bit ago for my tp and it went fine. i've not had any problems with the .10c apps downloading, tbh.
I have the default alpha3 build.prop and it installs fine.
All you have to do is purchase it from another android device and then go to the TP's market app and go to "my apps", then go download at the end of the list and find "Not Installed" purchased apps. HD Widgets should be there.

HD Widgets show up fine on my 16 using cm7 a3. Doesn't show on my 32 running xron. I'm assuming build.prop difference.

I dont remember seeing tablet widgets in their android market screenshots but if they exist and are tablet-only widgets you will have to wait for ICS. Currently our Touchpad run a phone version of android and so cant run anything that uses tablet APIs (Honeycomb and ICS can run these).

Tasker on Touchpad?

I have been using Tasker for over a year now on my Atrix and would love to load it on my touchpad, but it appears it is not suppported according to the Android Market. Has anyone gotten it to install? Is this just a matter of the Market or the app creator not being caught up with the dev done on the touchpad?
Maybe copy your tasker apk form your Atrix, than use it on TP?

You can use an app called bluetooth file transfer. Once paired theres an option to send apps from your phone to the touchpad. It works great...

/data/app/
You can just email it to yourself and install from the attachment.
If you can't find it that way, you can download app monster, and manually make a backup of Tasker, then navigate to app monster folder and email it from there. This is what I do when apps dont show in the market. Hell, Im bored ill try right now.
and yes Tasker works beautifully.

It shows up in the Market from my TouchPad for me. I've had it installed since the first day I switched over to CM7, but I haven't really done much with it, except to verify that it does recognize events and execute tasks.
So I tried coping it from my phone, but when I ran the apk it wouldn't install on the touchpad. In the market my device is greyed out unfortunatly, I am using MIUI... Guess I will have to try the backup route
Maybe a MIUI vs CM issue?

[MOD] Solving all incompatibility issue with Games & Apps

[ROOT Needed]
Changing Device ID to galaxy s will be helping in playing incompatible games from gameloft & other vendors
You can play: mc3 & other games that weren't working earlier
You need (bild.prop editor)
code.google.com/p/net-widgetron-propeditor/downloads/detail?name=PropEditor-0.3.apk
Install this, Open & then backup orignal file..
& then you are ready to edit - find these lines & edit like this
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung
ro.product.model=GT-I9000
(only manufacturer & model are necessary you might edit other if you want to..)
ro.product.name=GT-I9000
ro.product.device=GT-I9000
ro.product.board=GT-I9000
ro.product.brand=samsung
after editing save file & restart your device... that's done..
now visit gameloft http://wapshop.gameloft.com site to see if this trick is really working...
just rebooted it with the mod see if it works.......
Yes!! Got past the part where it says device is incompatible now downloading the data for MC3..........

Good luck with that, actually i don't have a galaxy player but want to help you guys, do tell others about this
This works well. It also lets us see apps that were hidden in the market before like go launcher ex and adw ex.
Dudes, do as OP says, only with GT-I9100 instead of GT-I9000, then go to Samsung apps and you can get loads of Gameloft games... FOR FREE! This is perfectly legal, unless Samsung is pirating them, lol!
Edit: Oh, I see, those are just trials, still, test out the game before you buy it!
Edit2: a member brought it to my attention that it might not be such a wise idea to trick the market into thinking your device is a dual core 1.2ghz device, so this might not be such a good idea.
Well I went on to the site and its says that my device is I9000 but on the market it says my device is still incompatible with other apps. I only left the ro.product.brand=samsung since it was the same. Did I do anything wrong? Could it be the custom rom I'm running?

why don't you try market alternatives like app-brain, getjar
What if it doesn't let you backup the files in the Prop Editor or even open the files to edit? It keeps saying "Failed to copy PropFiles to /mnt/sdcard/propeditor" and a similar message for when I try to edit the .prop file >_<

You know, it is interesting; using this, many apps that didn't show on the market now show; however, there are still certain apps that do not show up. Adw launcher is one, jeopordy is also not. There are others, but I forget what they were. This makes the market think you are a nexus, witch I thought were supposed to get all apps, but I guess there are even apps that the nexus doesn't get, oh well. As long as gameloft games show, I'm happy!
Can someone post the edited build.prop file they changed? I did it and it recognized it as a Galaxy S but made it so my swype was a "limited" trial and now Swype won't work =(
Also, the market didn't change app compatibility wise, just on Gamelofts website only.
i did everything you said but its not working...you have solution?
So if i changed the model number to the gqlaxy nexus then would i be able to download:chrome?
I tried installing the chrome apk, it just gives the "problem parsing package" error. Guess it only works on ics.
where i need to write those lines?i have a lot of stuff there

How to you prevent google play upgrade?

I have the apk for the 3.4.4 market. I froze the market updater but when I install the Market apk within 5 minutes it updates to play. Is there a way to prevent the upgrade?
What's the big deal with preventing the update? Looks like exactly the same market with a name change to me. Just wondering what I'm missing and in no way trying to be a jerk.

You dont want to stop the update because if you do, you will not be able to get apps or update current apps with the old market.
Anything else that relies on the newer market will fail as well. I doubt you could stop it anyway..
Install an older version of the Market and use Titanium Backup to freeze the Market Updater...but there's no good reason to not update.
The new market is great! LOL, it is pretty much the same. The only difference if you have a tablet and that allowed you to purches music through the app. Again looks pretty much the same. New name

personally the name change is annoying as all hell, google quit trying to program your brand name in my brain, when i want to buy and app or something i want to go to the market or to the store, not go to the google and pick up a new app.
every-time i'm in a rush trying to pull something from the app market i can't find the bloody icon because i'm looking for the market or in the old location on my app drawer, minor change i know but i have caught myself cussing at google when i needed to re-d/l my gps app after it crashed during a trip i as on a few days ago.
any chance of renaming the new app back to market without root?
Just use a launcher and if already do, just change the name duh..lol that's what I did ....

I also would like to learn how to get around using Play. The new terms seem to allow Google to read my sms messages and record the message routing. I don't think my correspondents would appreciate having their thoughts being part of Google's repertoire.

The only way to get around using Google Play is to not use android. What you're asking is the equivalent of saying you want to use an iDevice without the app store.

Memory needs > any update
I have a very good reason for not wanting auto-upgrades. Radio Shack misled me about the HTC Wildfire S and now I've got jack for memory. I have four apps installed, use only the native message app, and I'm lucky to have 25mb free. Anything less than that and the phone works as well as the Pony Express does today.
FWIW, Tandybot told me I could always install apps on the SD card. In theory, yes, but so few app devs code apps to work in that manner. Lesson learned.
kite edit: SNIP! No need for that kind of attitude around here, I'm afraid.
