Hello friends. I just want to know that whenever we download android applications from others sites except android market, there are always indirect links to download file. Have there any better sites for direct links sites...???
I should hope you always use the play store because piracy isnt welcome here dude

he never mentioned piracy.
Why are you wanting to download apps any other way than the play store... Unless it's warez in which case it is not allowed on XDA.

In some cases apps are not hosted on play store.. for example Aurora by mozilla..
Though reading the op i feel cases like this only happen if you try to download warez..which is illegal..

I know this, but it looks like he is trying file sharing sites, and wants recommendations which is not allowed on XDA.

Warez, is not allowed on XDA and that includes asking where to find it
The rules
6. Do not post warez.
If a piece of software requires you to pay to use it, then pay for it. We do not accept warez nor do we permit any member to promote or describe ways in which Warez, cracks, serial codes or other means of avoiding payment, can be obtained. This is a site of developers, i.e. the sort of people who create such software. When you cheat a software developer, you cheat us as a community

That's what I use. Install the AppBrain app and the Fast Web Installer app.
Instalous is for pirating paid apps primarily. I think the op is asking for something like that?
yeah i used appbrain too

but the apps are not cracked.. still have to buy them
If you are looking for an alternative that allows you to use non-market apps you can try SlideMe.
If you are asking about a market replacement to install cracked apps - you're not going to get an answer here because it's against the site rules.
Site Rules:
6. Do not post warez.
If a piece of software requires you to pay to use it, either pay or find your cracks and serials somewhere else. We do not accept warez nor do we permit any member to promote or describe ways in which Warez, cracks, serial codes or other means of avoiding payment, can be obtained.
Its also against the law
So you're looking for a market with cracked apps? that's considered warez and as some people has said, it's against XDA rules. You should have known better...
Not quite sure why you'd post this in a forum where lots of people try and pay the bills by selling software --- either directly or indirectly.
{Over a twentytwo hundred views- i seem to have struck a nerve. Alot of us had this problem- then I solutioned it out for us all}
Says [ROM] in the title but theres no rom to be had????
You had this experience lately? They make you Click here... click there. These guys make an XDA member play whack a-mole-look-for-the-rom link games?
Because of proprietary registration requirement some featured roms on this page cannot be downloaded by XDA members. Why is this being allowed?
XDA set up a perfectly reasonable system that worked JUST fine. WE DON'T NEED 50 websites to sign up for!!! - to get roms. All we need was XDA.
A few groups think they are entitled to change XDA(to its detriment) into their *****. Post links to these roms I'll put them here. We need to break these folks out of this habit. They say it isnt against XDA rules for them to do this- well then it wont be against XDA rules for me to post them
right in this post at the bottom of this post.
Its what ANDROID is all about. Open Source.
Mik and this Sac's Kingdom rom and some others cant be downloaded. (I like their roms- since I'm trying to download em-duh)
Has money changed hands? what is the deal?
Why are these roms --that we can't get unless we register on their crappy webpages-- featured on XDA Android Rom page? WTF?
And for all the sychophants, buttsniffer brigade and scene kids- racing to their rescue-:you see their troll comments in abundance: If every rom you ever download you need to sign up for their proprietary page- why do we need XDA then?
If this continues- XDA is cutting its own throat. I won't use a rom I have to sign up elsewhere to get it.
(So please post mirror links to Mik Roms and Sacs Kingdom Roms so the rest of us don't have to register)
XDA set up a perfectly reasonable system that worked JUST fine. WE DON'T NEED 50 websites to sign up for!!! - to get roms. All we need was XDA. This is a game changer.
I understand the sychophants and scenies will do what ever they are told.
But XDa had it right and these people are messing up a good thing- tryna make it their thing. And I call bull****!.
And this isn't a Q&A. This needs to be addressed by XDA- or we can just post links and nobody would be mad.
We just want straight-up Rom links!
If two guys do it- MIK and SACS to drive traffic for their own websites- it'll be prevalent in a week.
And XDA will not have any relevance.
The buttsniffers, sychophants and scene kids say- it only takes a minute to register over here, then over there, then here and here too! yeah! and there and...- blah blah blah.
What you gonna do when synergy or Kings or ACS or -take your pick- does this same thing?
And all the rest of them do it?
This needs to stop NOW.

Hit thanks if you agree with me...
I agree completely so I am willing to give up this second post on the thread for what you guys need it for
No -rom development that doesnt lead to actual roms dont belong here

Asking why XDA allows this isnt a Q and A- these lames are taking up space that actual developers offering real roms can use. This practice needs to stop and wont be put in a lil box elsewhere. All these guys are doing with tacit XDA approval- it seems- is promoting proprietary webpages that take people off XDA. To their site. They offer us nothing but a registration elsewhere. They are just taking up XDA space and tryingto get XDA members onto their own webs.
I agree.

Damn it sounds like some folks got sour milk in their cereal. All of the sites you are complaining about are "FREE" to register on and do not ask anything or for any money from you to get access to their links. So if XDA admins don't have a problem with it why should anyone else. After all it only takes about 60 second more out of your day.
"Hell I don't know"

+1 completely agree.
i got no beef with signing up for something to download any of these roms. my phone is nothing without these devs, and i will get the roms from wherever they want to post them. if i had the time to sit down and tweek a rom to the way i like it i would but i dont. taking the extra 2 minutes to signup for another site is pretty ok with me

If you want the ROM take a couple of seconds and sign up for free on the developers site. Simple as that. Just be lucky they link there site here for us to get the ROM in the first place.
Both rom are my favorites!!
But never complain about how to download it..
Dont be lazy..

Oh gee- we get to look around on each new proprietary website for 15 minutes to sign up for something we dont want! The way it was was fine- these people are making XDA irrelevant. I don't want XDA to become irrelevant.
I want it the way it was and these people need to change their practices. XDA people need to get their head out of their asses.

Talk about taking up space. If your not happy here then feel free to move some place else. I've never had any issues downloading a rom on this site, 99% of the time I don't even have to go to the developers site to download the rom. They are doing this for us for free and your whinning about how to get the ROM?
Holly crap.. i was just thinking this today..
I want to download sacs new sense 3.0 rom but i have to register.. anyone have a mirror or straight link to his rom..
Great job to them for making this rom but cmon..
Haven't used a mik rom or any rom I need to sign up somewhere else.

when someone who built the rom and spent HOURS to do and YOUR complaining because he wants you to become a member on his site (WHICH IS FREE) where you can probably find more cool stuff about the rom you want. stop being lazy and selfish. #bad.
Oh no! Something different than i'm used to! The only response is rage!
Go elsewhere? Thats what I'm trying NOT to do

I like XDA just as it is. I DONT want to go ELSEWHERE: to someone elses website to sign up for their stuff. I want to stay at XDA in a system that worked just fine.
Kinda toolish to tell me to leave XDA "if I'm not happy"... thats kinda weird logic- I want to stay on XDA- not leave it to go to proprietary websites. You need to take your pills.

Your whinning!
Or you could just do what I do and not use the Rom. If they want to link to their hard earned site for their hard earned credit, let them. I don't want to register, I don't download, and I let everyone else be happy and merry and move on with their lives.
I think I want XDA to stay like it was and not become merely a quick cover page for 50 proprietary websites. I don't want to get in a troll/flame war with some nobody. I just want up and down links to roms(like its been). And i'm saying that if your frauding XDA just to post web page links for your own stuff- its you who need to "go elsewhere".

Given your recent posts in aamikam's MikRoms thread, prior to this thread, one can logically presume you are complaining about aamikam's posts.
aamikam has just over 2600 posts, joined in October 2008, and actively maintains a thread related to the MikRom download.
He is following the rules. YOU however, have disregarded them...

Hi guys,
I have special but not too strange request: I have seen that at least the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" comes with Polaris Office version 4.0.xxx preinstalled which seems to be quite nice.
Could someone who ownes the Tab (or has PO 4) use apk etractor or so to extract the apk of the app and share it?
Because some tablets (i.e. the Asus Transformer series) comes with version 3.0 of Polaris office and it would be awesome if someone could post version 4 to which everybody could update then.
Thanks!

Hey, do you know what Polaris Office is? I wouldn't ask for any cracked app or Warez on xda- or anywhere else- and believe it or not, I do buy apps in the Play Store with my mony! The point is that Polaris Office CANNOT be purchased in the Play Store. I'd love to see it in it, but it has never been there (only preinstalled on almost every Smartphone and tablet).
So an apk of Polaris wouldn't be Warez I'd say, it is about the same case as an apk of, say, the launcher of the Xperia S you can install on other Android phones.

Actually it is a paid for app, but they have not released version 4.0 to the general public. It has to do with licensing. Samsung bought the license to include it on the new galaxy tabs. It would be similar to taking windows 7 off your oem computer and uploading it so others can upgrade their versions.
not meaning to attack you as i believe you are an honest person. Licensing stuff sucks but i guess most simply put would be how would infraware react to finding links to polaris office apks on xda when googling.
As already explained above, the software is licensed for release on specific devices, so this is a request for pirated software.

can someone tell me that what is the extension of apps that we download from windows 8 app store and will paid apps for widows 8 be available on torrents and on other websites for free cos all paid games cannot be cracked
please help
Step one: Read forum rules (site-wide, geez, you'd think in 137 posts you'd have learned better).
Step two: ... you know, instead of what I was about to say, I'm going to just cordially invite you to apologize for suggesting that we would help you take our work without paying, and then leave.

9. Don't get us into trouble.
Don't post copyrighted materials or do other things which will obviously lead to legal trouble. If you wouldn't do it on your own homepage, you probably shouldn't do it here either. This does not mean that we agree with everything that the software piracy lobby try to impose on us. It simply means that you cannot break any laws here, since we'll end up dealing with the legal hassle caused by you.
