Looks like the promo is over, that was quick, they were free for a few hours this morning. I know they were free for sure cause I downloaded them, I had saw a thread on reddit about it, now they are back to normal price.

I thought based on Google Play Guidelines that once an app is free it cannot become a paid app again. I'm betting that it was an error and that people who downloaded the app might lose access to it later.

It's not an error . App can get paid again. For example i'm from germany and i'm using "App des Tages". You can translate that to app of the day. This app will show you special offers of apps which are free for 1 day and will be paid after that day expires.

Paid apps can be offered for free for a limited time.
Downloading a free app is the same as purchasing it for $0.00.
Once you download the app, you own it, even when the price goes (back) up.
As I understand it.. That is why some people were making a big deal about devs getting your info when you "purchase" an app. People all of a sudden realized that every free app you have ever downloaded: that third party developer has your full name, email address & location. That is relatively normal info to exchange when you make a purchase from someone, but you don't want to give that info to every dev who has a free app. Turns out, you did.

N64 app

What happened to it? I paid the $5 a couple of weeks ago and loved playing with the emulator. I wiped my phone and started with a clean slate and a new rom. I went to go redowload the app and its no longer in the market. I'm not sure if this is allowed, but if someone could post the apk to n64oid if you have it, that would be great!
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
The reason why the n64 emulator is not on the market is because the developer of the emulator took it off the market because he didn't want any bad ratings

but he is doing fixes to it so its not a buggy beta.
(prays CM7 team doesn't do that)
I do have the apk but i believe under XDA rules we cant share it because if i believe the term is right Warez?
Aww man, I didn't find anything wrong with it. I didn't know if you were allowed to PM me the apk since I have bought it in the past? If not, are you still able to look up the developers email address?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I don't recommend you even ask someone to PM you the .apk, since it could still be considered requesting wares which would earn you an infraction.
Also, if you already bought the app I suggest you try contacting the developer and try to work something out.
Is it still warez if I have bought it?
*edit* I don't mind contacting the developer, but I can't even do that since I don't have his email and its not listed in the market...

Any idea how? I'm looking through my orders on the Android Market website, and it's not showing up - I presume because the app is no longer on the market. I can't find a section on the site to show billing history or something of that nature.

Just got this reply from the developer. Great guy!
A great number of users are complaining about the compatibility and running performance. Considering the bad ratings, I temporarily unpublished N64oid. I am doing a rewrite of some of the core modules. Don't worry, N64oid will be back much better in a month. And of course you won't have to pay for it again.
Attached is the apk file.
Thanks for the understanding! I won't let people down.

[Q] Amazon Appstore and Google Marketplace keep fighting over updates

Hey, guys.
I downloaded some free apps of the day from Amazon's Appstore that now cost money. However, Google's Marketplace sees that I have that app and there's an update for it but I can't download it. So, right now it just sits there under my apps claiming to have an update. However, since I didn't pay for it through Google Marketplace, it wants me to pay for it before I can update it.
Is there anyway to fix this to let Google Marketplace be where I update all of my apps? OR is there anyway to make Google Marketplace know the app I got from Amazon is paid for and I'll update it through Amazon?
For example, I have CardioTrainer free version through Amazon. Google Market will update the app, but then Amazon will re-download an update for it. Then Google will then say there's a new update for it. And then Amazon will re-download an update for it. So, the updating just goes in circles here. Help, please. Thanks!
can amazon apps. stick with the original marketplace. what is the benifit of getting it from the amazon app store insted? do you like drm?
I'd estimate 90% of amazon app store users only have it for the free paid app of the day, lol.
OP: I've never had an issue with Android Market fighting with Amazon app store. Don't download the same app from Android that you get from Amazon. Just let Amazon maintain the apps you buy/get free from them.

I already told you: The free app of the day.
Although, you can call me a cheap bastard, I suppose, and tell me to just buy the freakin' app on Google Marketplace. So, there's that.
Happened to me as well. I booted into cwm and wiped cache and dalik cache and issue went away.
are you getting ther market to request update but not amazon. Thats my issue. Market says update available amazon doesn't but through market I always fail to install.
Clearing cache and dalvik didn't help me . Thanks for any more help.

Its going to happen sometimes when one had a newer version then the other. Not much we can do to change it.
I don't think that this has ever happened to me, and I have like all of the free app of the days (although not all of them installed).
I guess what somehow happened is that they got attached to the Android Market. You can detach them using Titanium Backup. Just long press on the app and it will give you the option. I'm not sure if it works in the regular version; I have the pro version.

amazon number one place for drm free mp3s
amazon allows me to purchase angry birds for a small one time fee and never see a stupid ad again. open your mind, do not just believe, do not act as though google is another religion.
everyone should use more then one source, people here at XDA should know that more then anyone else!!
once your market is updated, side-loaded apps, shouldn't show in the play market.

Amazon Appstore Download Folder

I like to grab all the free apps every day but don't install all of them. I let the download finish and then hit cancel on the install screen. Are all of these downloads saved somewhere hogging up space or are they flushed out when I cancel the install?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Well if it downloaded successfully, then it is still somewhere. You can check the downloads folder, delete the file, or open titanium backup, then delete them that way.
why not just visit the website and buy the free app that way? no need to install.
I'll have to start doing it that way since I can't find where they're downloading to. Thanks guys.

No problem! Glad to help!
And I do that too...I pick up anything that might be remotely useful, but just don't install it if I don't think I want it taking space right now. I've even downloaded a few apps that I'd already paid for on the Android Market just to support the developer. They still get 20% of their normal price. I did that with Folder Organizer today, for example...a truly fantastic app that was one of the first I bought on the market.
The only time I don't do this though is on those occasions they've featured an app that is clearly crap. That's on the same theory for why I've downloaded apps I've already bought, in reverse. Sometimes I really DON'T want the dev to get the 20%, so I won't even download it to "see how bad it is." I think there was one "paid" app for free that not only did you normally have to buy to start with, but you had to pay to by credits to use it. Those I stay away from.

Purchase an app on Google Play without downloading it?

Hi guys,
I was wondering if there is a way to buy an app from Google Play but not download it yet?
The reason is I would like to take advantage of the $0.25c deal for The Dark Knight Rises on Google Play but I am not around wifi yet and don't have 1.8gb free on my SD.
So I would like to purchase the app but install it later, any ideas?
Thank you in advance
Its easy
Just Buy the App and as soon as the Download start, stop it.
So you Buy the App but not Downlad them.
duh! now I feel stupid lol
Thanks mate!!

The quoted portion of fatjivi's post, which you are likely referring to, was edited out. The quote contained the original illegal post.
Anyway, didn't the Play Store app used to have an option to only DL files over a certain threshold while connected to WiFi? I only see the option to restrict *all* downloads to WiFi.

1. Download Cerberus

A couple of clarifications on the promotion we are doing with AppGratis:
- The promo will end at 1 PM GMT, June 7
- It is only for new accounts created in this time frame. So if you already have an account with the free trial expired, unfortunately you can't get the full license for free.

If you did the free trial, unfortunately it won't give you the full license since its for new accounts only. I would recommend grabbing another android device that you did not use the trial on and creating a new account with that.

Easy fix:
1) Go the the Cerberus login page and enter your info
2) Once logged in (if your trial is expired) it should give you a message saying "Your trial has expired!"
3) If you see the trial expired message, you should also see a "Delete Account" option on the same page, click that
4) Once your account is deleted simply download/reinstall the app and register again (you can even use the same info)
Voila! Free license!
Didnt try it but read it in reddit Try your luck
THanks a lot, uff that was close its almost 1am
