Does anyone have Sky by Mobile working on their Desire? I get a message that it's not compatible. Doesn't it work with Android?
Sky hasn't written a Sky by Mobile app for Android (yet).
Austin Reid has though. Check out Record It and Whats On on the Android Market.
Looks very good but cannot find Record It on the market even when I click Upgrade in Whats On.
According to the change log it is a protected app, which don't seem to be currently available to the Desire.
I'm using "Remote Recorder" at the moment as it's all that I could find available, but it leaves a lot to be desired.

I havent tried this but there is an option to allow unprotected apps. think its in the privacy part of settings
I know the setting you mean - to allow you to install apps from "other sources".
However, I think the issue at the minute is the market place. I believe, but could be wrong, that they don't currently allow Desire users to even see copy protected apps. I think that once they've updated the market place to know about this handset the app should show up.

I've installed it on mine and it works a treat!!
Only problem is that it doesn't have a programme guide, you have to search for the programme which isn't too much of an issue...!!

Where did you find it?
I logged in to the sky website the other day and used the web based remote-record function. This was just about workable on the phone.

Just a heads up that later on tomorrow an application will be released to help people outside of "authorized" areas purchase applications for the G1 on the market. More information can be found at http://strazzere.com/blog/?p=249 or the italian version at http://www.androidiani.com/applicazioni/applicazioni-a-pagamento-sul-market-da-ora-si-puo-2169.
Basically it ended up being easier than we originally thought, though Andrea threw together an application to make it easier for people to do.
The program should be released early tomorrow with the source and an explanation of how it works and what not.
Enjoy! Ciao!

Bye Andrea
bump!
i've installed the app and its working!!
but i don't have a billing address in US...
its now working!!
market apps available on ADP1.5 outside US
the app can be found here, look for the link "QUI"
http://www.androidiani.com/applicaz...he-in-italia-con-marketenabler-2177#more-2177
you might need to make a google checkout account from your computer if you are not in one of the market enabled countries... use the same gmail account
I wonder what Google thinks of this...
It works perfect, to bad google only works with creditcards :S ?
winbet this app enable only the purchasing process. We did not made nothing bad...

got the app- pity for some reason superuser doesnt want to play with it- funny cos SU plys ok with everything else....eg. advanced task manager etc.... am running 1.5 ADPHr1
is superuser not playing nice with it?
i use JF 1.5, i have to say allow a million times, but it works!
Amazing job!
Well I just want to thank the team that made this possible, it works just perfect on my JF 1.5 ADP, bought a few apps already!!!
Cheers
I'm pleased that you are happy of our work
Yes, thanks very much Andrea and Tim!
my SU is working ok with it now- for some reason it was hanging up- so i opened SU before opening this app..... i now have paid apps in Australia!!
Any requirements to install this program?
I cant seem to install it, keep getting " the install is unsuccessful" error.
Works GREAT!
It really works! Thank you so much. I felt disappointed when I learned google was not allowing ADP1 users to even see the non-free applications. Now I can see everything. I haven't tried to buy anything yet. I'm in Spain and we are not supposed to have paid applications, so I don't want to rise any suspicions.
Edit 1:
If you want to see the apps, you have to run the enabler and then (immediately after) go to the market. Or, to put it in a different way, it only allows this access for a (very) limited amount of time.
Edit 2:
I was finally able to see a free but protected app (NBA Game Time) from my ADP1, and it downloaded and installed successfully, but it doesn't run at all (force closes every time). If it's of any help, I'm running JF 1.5 on an ADP1.
I'm using JF 1.5ADP with no further mods (apps2sd etc.) and the SU request is freezing, tried a reboot but no joy, any ideas?
### Solved ###
This is a JF 1.5 issue, USB debugging must be enabled for the SU Whitelist to work (reboot not necessary).

I also have the JF 1.5ADP, but I do have the apps on the SD (I did it manually following instructions on JF's web). But it did asked me for root access like a million times (ok, a little exaggeration here, but it was like 6 or 7 times). And it takes a while (like a minute or so).
would it be easy to do the same hack for german market?
Would be cool to change between the different markets...

Switching between the different markets would be rather easy, you just need someone from that area to tell you what the numerical operator number and the operator name is.
I'll be posting soon how to do this process without the program install for people having trouble using market-enabler
Edit:
Try this information if you have trouble installing it: http://strazzere.com/blog/?p=260
Thanks, this is awesome! One thing I've noticed though, when viewing by popularity in uk it only shows free apps - paid aren't showing. They show normally in 'date added view though'.
I installed the new FRF72 which is supposed to be more complete correct
But I still have to run an adb command to make the market see my installed apps, and to be able to see protected apps in the market search
Is this going to be a default fix in the final froyo version, just doesnt seem professional I have to tamper with the phone to get apps showing
Just a curious thought!
Thanks
You're not using an official release

Not expecting it to function fully, but it is being downloaded off googles servers, and everything else works so was just curious why is it the market that suffers, im sure its more complicated.
Thanks
Because publishers set a max version number that can download their application.
Search and you will find more info about it.
May I ask which ADB command this would be?

its not suffering...its not out yet and is considered unstable with possible exploits. this is probably why protected apps are hidden from the market till final release.

Publishers can choose to copyright their application, which blocks any unofficial update.

I apologize if this has come up before, I did search and didn't find anything. I'm looking for a tool that I can remotely control my phone via my windows desktop. I use my phone all day at work listening to music, etc...
I've downloaded the latest release of screencast, and am able to see my phones screen, but no keyboard/mouse input is working so I still have to control the phone from the screen on the phone.
It appears that other people are having the same issue with this app. Anyone got the screencast app working properly on the vibrant or have any other suggestions for different apps?
Thanks,
Jeremiah
What do you mean you downloaded the lastest version of Screencast? I dont see an app called Screencast in the market, only an app that accesses ScreenCast Online videos called ScreenCastsOnline.

Yep, device is rooted, other people are having the same issue. there are some work arounds other's are using, but didn't work for me. I just tried out vnc server for android and that worked ok, but no landscape mode. And I have to wake up my phone from the screen after it went out to be able to do anything with it, which defeats the purpose for me.
I guess I'll keep searching, the vncserver for android is pretty sweet though.
Been trying to get this, and droid explorer to work all day, with very little luck :/
Hello,
I know there is tones of topics about it, but i really cant find any solution about it.
The most annoying problem is the not compatible apps, that should be compatible. I use the market on my computer which show paid apps (my phone doesnt show it). And normal apps like Vlingo are shown not compatible.
Worst some app i installed before are now shown not compatible anymore.
I changed room from lightning to Revolution (2.7.1), but still get the same probleme.
Anyway, how can it be from my phone if my account on computer show it not compatible. It must be from my account right ?
Im in china now, (bought the phone in France) and my google account is French. Can it be a problem with the localisation ?
Another weired thing on my phone, Market 3.1.5, when i go to Filter app (sorry i dont know the name in english for the option) to choose what level we want to show.
I must select FOR ALL before select Level3 and next must select level 3 to select level2. Shouldn't it be the reverse ? I mean, first people would like to get the most safe app, Level 1 and after get less safe, Level 2 - 3.
Is it the same on your device ?
Thanks all, i'm very tired of it, and it ruin my android experience... got SGS2, and cant install regular apps...

Oh but one thing though, the paid apps are back with the Market enabler.
Bust still nothing for the not compatible apps.
shall i change something in build.prop ?

It's the creator of the app that decides which devices should be able to buy/download their app, if they have decided you can't have it or buy it that's their decision.
If you want an app to be available and wonder why it's not showing for SGS2 send the developer an e-mail and perhaps they'll tell you why it's not available.
Have you changed the LCD Density? I did and a load of my apps came up as not compatible until I reverted back to the standard DPI and rebooted.

I tried change it, the defaut was 240 and I read that it was actually the standard, so i tried to force it again to 240 but it didnt change. (or its not the right number ?)
If you're using a Chinese SIM card you will get the Chinese version of market which doesn't have paid apps. That's why they are shown as incompatible or not shown at all. You need to use your French SIM or use marketenabler with the old market if you want the paid apps.

Marketenabler doesn't work properly with the new market. You have to downgrade to the old one.

Hi all,
I did a cursory check to see if there was a thread on this and couldn't find it so I'm going to ask outright.
When I get sent an amazon web link or want to pay something with PayPal, to give a couple of examples, I'd like the default app to open and not a new browser page. I'm not to android so I've had plenty of phones in the past that have operated in this way (oneplus 3t being the most recent example). Unfortunately I can't seem to get it to work with my S8 and it's a bit of an annoyance.
Does anyone know how to get this to work?
I have tried changing some of the settings in the attached screen but no success yet.
Any ideas?

The time I've seen this, is the page gives an option to launch in app sometimes, I'm not really sure how you can set it to open in their respective apps. I am interested in this though so gonna look into this

That would be great. I can't find an answer and I don't get an option to choose the app...mostly. As a test, try and get this link to open in Amazon. It's 'shared' directly from the app do the expectation is that it would open in the app

Yeah, I get the 'view in app' option also but that's an Amazon URL thing I believe. It doesn't give that option, for example, with a PayPal payment. It simply goes to the website which is what I'm hoping to change.
I'm surprised it's only you and I engaging in this. I find this very annoying and thought others might also
I've read about it a bit and involves something called app to app linking.
It's difficult for me because I've never had a device that launched, there are some apps that launch but from what I can remember when it comes to amazon and PayPal I've never had it auto launch. But you've given an answer, I'm just wondering if it has something to do with the framework, one plus is pretty much clean android whereas the s8 is touchwiz

Possibly that's it. I just assumed this was a given regardless of framework but it appears not. Does anyone know how other phones interact with URLs? Like I said, the 1+ was perfect in this regards.
So you are having issues when you attempting to open Amazon links with your app instead of the browser?

When there is a Amazon or say PayPal link web url, clicking on it opens a new browser Window instead of its respective app
Try this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tasomaniac.openwith
Good luck.
So this is EXACTLY what I have been fighting with on my S8.
The play store link from thehaXor opens the play store aop on my S7, but on my S8 takes me to the browser version of the play store.
I'll try the suggested app now and report back.
Install another browser and see if that one opens the same. Try the Firefox
