    Getting this image now, maybe too many people checking out the store?

    But I can sign in at least.

    Really love the fact that you click install and your phone magically starts installing it over the air.:D

    Google FTW

    "click, click, this will be installed to your device shortly".

    Awesomesauce! Now if only they released some sorting options it would be perfect

    I hit a problem when trying to buy Seekdroid.

    "We're sorry. Your order references a fraudulent user".

    Pretty odd. I have my CC details correct on the account.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,297 ✭✭✭Ron DMC


    Anyone else get this?
    There are no android phones associated with this account. Please sign in with a different account.

    I've tried both a google account and a google apps account, both of which are associated with the phone for mail, market and whatever else on the phone. Do I need to associate the phone via the computer as well or what?

    Nice but I had appbrain already....

    Appbrain stopped working a few weeks back

    I get it in German :/

    About time!

    Working perfect for me but ability to uninstall via market would be a nice feature.


  • Registered Users Posts: 612 ✭✭✭JoseJones


    Is there any way you can install apps via USB so that you don't have to use the data connection?

    Not from the Web market
    All in the cloud

    Yes but you need the .apk file. There are loads of sites offering the APK's but be warned! They may not be what they claim to be. You will have no idea what is actually being installed on your phone. A google search for 'Android apk download' will get you started.

    PS: Most apps are only a few KB's... I wouldn't worry about using data line to download them.

    This rocks. Far better than the iTunes App Store syncing. I can't wait for Google to get music in the Market. Did anything ever come of the talks/agreement/whatever with 7Digital?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,453 ✭✭✭spartacus93


    Deadly!

    Thanks for the link OP. Long overdue by Google.

    Love the way it auto - installs the app on your phone.

    Excellent, thanks for that! The reason I don't want to use my data allowance is that as soon as I use it I'm charged 99c (I think!) for the day and I'm unlikely to use it for the rest of the day so it's a waste to spend 99c just to get an app when I can download it on the PC.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,767 ✭✭✭Scotty #


    I presume then that you lcok your data connection OFF as most apps will connect (for ads) anyway?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,227 ✭✭✭Breezer


    There doesn't seem to be a way to uninstall apps from your phone using this, or am I missing something?

    Yeah you can't do that (yet) ! It's basic website from google which I say they will update soon enough to get features.

    Maybe take a few features from http://www.appbrain.com/ Hot apps this week is a feature I would like to see
