This issue relates to my HTC Desire which an unlocked handset in the UK. It has come to my attention that certain applications do not appear to be in the Android Market that I would have expected. For example the Gameloft titles (eg Asphalt 5) do not appear.
Are these applications country restricted or perhaps do I have an issue. I read elsewhere that the issue could be related to locale or language in the settings, howeve rI have checked these are set to English.
Try using search instead of asking a question that's already been asked and answered a dozen times already.
The search on this forum is a mess. Found an answer through the google android postings.
Thanks for your "help"

Search on here works fine, and if you bother to actually read the forum rules, you'd know that you're meant to actually use it before asking the same question people have already answered dozens of times already.
Thanks FloatingFatMan, I actually got here using search and now you've been so kind to not provide a normal answer.

Ever thought that just MAYBE, some people are starting to get fed up with the same questions being asked time and time again, when the answer could be got with just a couple of seconds of bothering to look?
You could have found the answer in less time than it took you to ask the question in the first place.

This is true, however this matter could have also been settled in less than the 26 hours or 3 posts it took for you to school a noob.
Let's play nice FloatingFatMan; this is not the first thread I've read on here in that last few days where your comments are rude or unhelpful.
@npw - You'll find the answer to your question is that Google have not yet approved the Desire ROM for use with protected apps. Wait a little and the missing apps should appear in good time.
As already mentioned, please remember to Google thoroughly before you post!
Yes, thank you monkeyfishing, that was the answer I found after googling it. I searched this forum but not Google, this has always been my first stop for HTC related questions. Slight mistake on my part, but thank you for polite answer/ request to search rather than the rant of an ill tempered fat man (a floating one at that). I guess its just a waiting game for google to approve the desire for protected apps

I have a cingular 8525, and theres people talking about loading tomtom to there 8525, is the GPS function working on it? seems like there is drivers on here for it? and people trying to get it to work? Anyone can give me any info without me going over 70 pages of peoples comments?
Thank you.....and a Thank you for all the people cooking the ROMS...Lets see at ATT/Cingular ROM with Windows Mobile 6.......
Come on man, just read the last few posts out of the GPS threads and you will know. It does not work yet, the software is there (supposedly) what is needed now is an antenna.
If you're not willing to familiarize yourself with the GPS threads, then please just go out and buy a bluetooth GPS and save everyone some time.
thank you
I expected this response, But allot of people have the same question this just makes it simple......Who wants to carry their brick looking hermes and a brick gps module? NO ONE.... but thnak you for the replies....it is very appreciated
If you can't be bothered to read the threads than any attempt you make at enabling gps is likely to result in a brick. So why bother ask?

I think this is a great question as I have been a member of xda for a while now and I don't feel like reading through all 70 pages either simple question why not answer the question without making him feel like a d!ck not working yet man when it does work it will be added to the stickys

Gentlemen please. You know what I like about XDA-Dev, compared to some other places, is the generally very helpful and polite manner of the posters. Sometimes something can really wind us up and showing a bit of irritation is fine but now we've shown that let's think how we avoid this problem in future.
Firstly if there is already a thread on a subject it should be used to post a relevant question. So a question about GPS should not be in a new thread like this one.
Secondly, I agree with the above poster who said - you only need to read through the last few posts , not all 70 pages, to know roughly what is happening.
Thirdly, you may get away with far more slightly cheeky things if you ask politely and with a measure of humour.
Lastly, as someone above said sometimes it's just easier and more peaceful to give a very short answer to a "cheeky" question whilst perhaps also pointing out that next time the person might do a bit more work to get the answer.
Peace and Love

You all are right probably... but why are there 3 threads???
And why are there 4 threads about WM6???
Both my favorite subjects, so I always have to read 7 threads...
Yeah I know, I don't have to if I don't want to. But I want!
But still: maybe some more moderating???

no he is want revenge cheating girlfriend! maybe end topic and move spam now?
Well I can see where you're going with this. But DDoSing a mobile phone isn't the smartest thing I think. Im not sure how ISP's assign ip's, but I don't think every mobile device gets it's own unique IP. I tried DDoSing my phone through WiFi yesterday, that worked

Thanks, for your smart answer. It's a school assignement (master degrees). And i have not the choice about the topic. So the goal of the topic it's to study the vulnerabilities of the phone OS. And the main goal is to hack or DoS a phone but use the vulnerabilities of the OS and not use Social engineering (phishing...).

What's that got to do with anything? If anything, that makes matters that much worse - if he's so tech-savvy, he should know about using the search function before opening ANY new threads.
well, after use "Search" I've found many threads w/o answer. So I just would like to know why, just ont one, simple answer.
I kind of agree with him, there is the need of a sticky thread that clearly states what and why cannot work, and what instead is needed, and why.

You should know better than that. Opening a new thread when one already exists on the same subject is a big no-no on XDA. Opening a new thread KNOWING one already exists just makes it worse.
Anyway, I'm sure there's a good reason a Galaxy R release doesn't help. The devs have no obligation to explain in great technical detail why this is not possible, if they say this won't work you should be able to trust their expertise and experience on that. If you need solid proof and reason, maybe you could try extracting the drivers and making them work on the Atrix yourself.
