hey guys
I've used a lot of different roms already and i recognized that the market doesnt list all apps since theres a device filter. Is there any way to emulate another device ? For example a desire hd so i have access to all apps? I also used apps to emulate my carrier etc. but that didnt change anything
Are there any apps that you are specifically looking for. I have experienced this same problem with only certain apps being shown because of certain devices. On the other hand, The Android market seams to be removing a lot of apps that are technically Illegal like most of the MP3 music apps. My phone is currently listed as the Sensation and I am still having trouble finding certain apps!!

Hey guys.. I was wondering that why there is no option to download android apps on PC? I don't see any reason for why not apart from the different hardware of devices due to which not every device supports every app. But can't we just select our handset and then search for the apps?
By the way, please delete this thread if it's already been started before!
We can very much download apps to the PC. Some of the sites provide downloading only on scanning the QR code from the phone, but there r many many other sites wer u can download the apks on ur PC, like I do since I have no GPRS/3G/WiFi accounts on my phone yet.
A great list of such sites :
www.download.pandaapp.com
www.getandroidstuff.com
www.androidsoft4u.com
www.andappstore.com
www.mobiles24.com
www.bestandroiddownloads.com

Hey!
I was looking for something like Apple's App Store, something official. But anyways, thanks alot!
With minor hacking you can install the official Android Market on you PC inside the official Android Emulator as well as x86 port of Android running on PC hardware. There are a lot of guides explaining how to do this online.
Here is an example:
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/2186...ndroid-market-in-the-google-android-emulator/
p.s. This is off topic... I know people use this all the time and I certainly don't have the best grammar myself, but I just wanted to point out that "alot" is not a word in the English language. No one seems to mind little things like that when posting online, but I happen to see students using it all the time in their papers and it is wrong. They use "alot" and when it should just be "a lot".
Hi,
The xperia x10 I have does not show some apps in market searches- som major ones like froyo, fring, repligo reader and skype.
It has been rooted as adviced in one of the threads as market app wasnt available initially. the rooting I think was not successful 100% but the market showed up by the end of the process.
Is there a fix already in circulation, wasnt able to zero in on anything. Thanks in advance
Reason is your region.
root your phone and use market enabler that will allow you to change your region for a few time or every time you boot
it has a default list but you can get a full list on the internet
ok i've found a game i realy want on the android market (stupid zombies) did a search but no luck.
so i use the online market https://market.android.com/ and found it however can not install as my phone is not reconized.
so search here on xda and found
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=983853
Try'd to install but half way through the phone reset
Next thought was to update the market got an APK file from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=869964 but aways came up with an error
so now i ask for a helping hand
and ideas would be appreciated
so i played with another phone today (desire HD) and found that are beloved phones are missing quite a few games/apps
i held both phones side by side scrolling though the market and noticed that 1 in 8 were missing
still unsure if it has enything to do the market update or a phone compatibility issue
i believe results are filtered for device compatibility. like on windows mobile marketplace, where you'd receive more results with an old blueangel than with a blackstone, as there were more qvga apps and ones that require a physical keyboard.
when it comes to the desire hd vs. the blackstone, the issue could be the blackstone's lack of multi touch for example. maybe there are some exclusive apps, that wouldn't work without it and to minimize the risk of people buying an incompatible app, they get filtered out in advance.
Hello, I was just wondering, I've come by some apps that apparently used to be supported but no longer are. Two examples are trip advisor and firefox. I've seen many youtube videos and other relevant forums showing how they work and how good this and that... anyway long story short, I've installed both on my phone but they don't show up on my watch. I know android wear 2.0 is coming and will most likely increase compatibility of all sorts of apps. But I'm still wondering, what happen to these apps? Another example is duo lingo, I don't really want it but it did disappear under the radar... anyone can tell me if I'm the one not installing those proper? Thanks
Hello,
Thinking about getting the OnePlus 8 pro
So far I've used Samsung or Huawei Phones, and they both have a feature I really love the SecureFolder on Samsung phone and the HiddenSpace on Huawei Phones.
It's just like having 2 phones in one, so I can use it both as a work phone and a personal without mixing anything between the two.
Does the OnePlus phones have something similar?
I'm not looking for and app, Iv'e tried dual space and similar apps.
they just make cloned apps, but I'm looking for a total and discrete separation between the two "users"
different contacts, files, apps, everything
Thanks,

No
You have the option to secure files or foto's through stock file manager app or stock gallery, or to lock a specific app with encryption..( fp, pattern etc)
I might be entirely wrong about this one, but I think we can create a "locked" work profile on the phone using apps like Island to create it, and keep that part of the phone encrypted. It should be possible to keep that partition secured with a separate pass code. Not as convenient as "SecureFolder", but might be enough.

I have tried Island but it seems buddy and crashed alot
I know on some phones you can create a different "user" like on windows, is it possible?

That's pretty much what Island and that type of apps do. They create another user with ID 999 so the apps on it can be heltd separated from the "normal" ones. Afaik there is no built in separate user space in android, other than work space capabilities. If Island doesn't work well for you there might be other apps of the same type, perhaps Shelter works better (I don't know, Iäm not using apps like it myself).
