You can install apps from your browser - Hero, G2 Touch General

Did you know you can download apps directy from 3rd party websites and install them stright from the browser.
Its nice to know you can :->

You can also search apps using your PC here:

Then scan the bar code (top left of the app page) using your phone to take u to the market page directly!

So do you know any good 3rd party websites ??

[Q] Latest Youtube apk

Hello,
For some strange reason, I can't find the Youtube application on the market, whichever ROM I try. I used to get it fine on my HTC Magic but nothing on my HTC HD2.
I can't find Vocal Search either but that one can be found in CM's gapps.zip. No Youtube in that pack unfortunately...
So is there an address or thread that keeps an up-to-date .apk of the Youtube app ?
Thank you very much !
Install market enabler. Then launch market enabler, go to setting list, long press either us t-mobile or us-verizon. A menu will appear, press fake this provider now.
Now you'll be able to find the youtube app on market.
I know about that but I don't really want to install an app to get another app. I wouldn't use market enabler for anything else...
Check your PM.

There's a function called "Apps Un-installing", but then u already know dat.
Hi there. I installed a market enable but I still cannot find a youtube. is a reason because I'm from Serbia or what, i dont know. Please, if someone can give me a hand with this, I would be very happy. I found Maps and Gmail, but Youtube is the most important for me.
Found a solution. I didn't change a network in setings.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Solution found or ??
Same for me, cant find it in belgium, tried to download market enabler and it doesnt work either :-s
I found an apk file online and it doenst want to open either...Did anyone find another solution to this problem?
Strange that youtube isnt default anyways, but i guess thats one price to pay for having an HD2 on android...still a cool and much better phone with android that f*@king windows. ;-o

If you're from Belgium and go to the android market website on your computer, you'll see you won't be able to install youtube.apk because it's not allowed in our country. Market enabler is an old well-known solution, but I recall Google having removed the separation between market-regio's so Market enabler was no longer required. So why suddenly is there some country-based restrictions again on some apps :/ Even youtube.. I mean I can easily open a brower on my computer in Belgium and just access youtube so I don't understand why it would be forbidden to open it from a smartphone.

[Q] emulator links me to the market website instead of the marketplace app??

I don't have my phone with me right now because its broken. But I just noticed that when I click on links that used to go to apps on the market place app, they now instead open up the web browser and go to the website verison of the market place. Is this JUST on the emulators or will it be on phones now too?
I don't think the emulators come with Market installed, so it probably defaults to the website.

Pop-Up ads appearing on home screen and over apps

Since yesterday I've been getting ads that pop up over any and every app when I start them.
I've had this happen from an app I installed once before and uninstalling fixed it, but this time I tried uninstalling everything I've installed or updated in the past 2 weeks but they still keep popping up.
And none of the ad detectors can find these type of ads so does anyone know how to track the source?
Also this is the app I had and removed months ago that gave same problems https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=game.gles.rubikcube
Some apps running in the background causes this. Uninstall all the free app or cracked apps from your phone
I've uninstalled everything from 2 weeks before it started, and it isn't just cracked apps that cause it like you'll see by looking at the comments of the app I linked to.
So I need a way to find the app or process to find it.

You can try this:
- Install Shortcut Master app.
- Open Menu > Capture Shortcut. Here you can select 'Manually capture' and 'Auto capture', which one is suitable for you.
That way you can capture the shortcut when the ads appear. You can also know which app that the ads belong to.
i have the same problem, when i unlock th phone appear chrome window with ads, or suddenly a window over any aplication that i use inthat moment.
dam.
Samsung is adding support for ad blocking to its browser app on Android.
News detail
The first content blocker available for Samsung's Internet is Adblock Fast, which is also available for iOS and Chrome and Opera on the desktop.

Apps

Im sure this is a silly question but is there an actual regular app store or do you just have to browse though the panels?
There just doesnt seem to be many apps at all to install I figured there must be some better way of getting them more like playstore.
...
I cant get regular playstore working after following the guide. It either flashes and returns to apps list or occasionally goes to the account details screen but no further.
There's the Amazon app store.
Fire TV Apps

Yes, there are other/new places to look for getting Fire TV apps, but unfortunately because of being new in this forum I'm not yet permitted to place external links in my posts (which would be the easiest way to assist) So, just do search on 'fire tv apps 2014' and/or 'fire tv app options' which will lead to some info that should hopefully help? In addition, I found a few recent and relevant links on the 1st page in a Google search for 'finding apps for fire tv'. But as far as there being a store solely for Fire TV apps, I'm not sure if there is one yet
If you can install from unknown sources,there is 1mobile,appchina,wandoujia,voga360,and aptoide.
You can also use evozi and/or apkleecher to get free apps from the Play Store.
And you can even get your purchased apps by signing up at the Evozi APK Downloader page!

Update: @jarayn informs me that it is not a launchable app.
And just to bring it full circle. The Amazon Appstore comes preloaded on the AFTV. It's just very hidden. This is the location on the latest FW.
Go to: Settings / 4) Applications / Manage All Installed Applications / Apptore ( Just scroll down till you find it & launch)

Thats not a launchable app on my fire tv.
Are you saying you can open that and actually browse through apps?
What other "treasures" await those poor schmucks or pre-rooted winners who get the latest firmware?

Humn... Didn't try to open it. Guess it is there but everything is dealt thru the UI. Wonder if there is another app to sideload that might act like an actual appstore. No point though....
I side-loaded the regular appstore apk from Play. Kinda messed things up. Had to Unzip Rbox's pre-rooted ROM to retrieve the correct one from Apps. Then had to R/W with Root Explorer to remove the side-loaded one and replace with the correct one.
Be careful messing with AFTV specifc apps.

Apps install from web store not showing?

So I read that there are more than a few apps that can be install and work on the Nexus Player but don't show up in it's store, specifically Crunchyroll is the app i'm talking about, now it did in fact install it and it works, but it doesn't show up on the app list on the main page, to open it I have to dig down in the menu to installed apps in the settings menu and run it from there, is there any way to get it to show up properly on the main page?

Chainfire made an app just for this purpose:
PlayStore: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.tv.sideloadlauncher&hl=en
XDA News: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/chainfire-sideload-applications-android-tv/
Thread Home: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-sideload-launcher-android-tv-t2914962
After posting I realized that I didn't fully answer your question. Any app can be made to show up, it just needs to be coded into each app individually. I'm still trying to find it, but it is a "Leanback Announce" line that needs to be added, but using the SideLoad Launcher is much easier!
Awesome, thanks!
