I think as a former iPhone user that between them two I would pick 9900.

Maybe you wont have apple app store but as a phone/calendar/email/messaging 9900 works pefectly well and it's a one good looking handset.

Battery life will be probably similar (with a little extra from BB) but on 9900 you can have your replacement on hand.

As mentioned above. Depends what you expect and need from your mobile.

If you like flashy, itunes, apple, millions of apps - iPhone

If you txt, email a lot and you like reliability (this qwerty keyboard is just pure envy) - 9900

It's hard for me to tell you which one of those two you should pick since I left iPhone and my choice was between 9900 and SGS2 but at the end I went for Sammy.

Maybe you want to consider Android OS? Since so far we talked about high end handsets for the same buck you will get some seriously good mobiles running Android even if you like the idea if qwerty physical keyboard you can still be left with quite a choice.

Whoa. People still want to buy Blackberry phones?
[Off-topic] 754boy:
I love Blackberries. My Bold 9700 served me well until I got a taste of Android. If I had your choice, I would definitely pick the iPhone, and I'm not even an Apple fan.
[Off-topic] mario_1603:
i dont like blackberry and iphone, but if i had to choose, i pick the iphone
[Off-topic] Babydollll:
Neither?
[Off-topic] mistaliu:
On a forum that's like 98% android, you are preaching to the choir :-)
[Off-topic] htc fan89:
If you have to pick between those, get bold 9900. Iphone is worst than Blackberry, at least that's a "real" smartphone:D
[Off-topic] negrobembon:
You my friend are insane(no offence even though it sounded offensive)

As a previous blackberry user blackberries suck more deek Than an ocassion lady

Im no iphone lover but sounds like a better choice imo

Though in the end it depends on your needs bb's strong points are messaging and bbm so if thats your only need the get a bb(at least looks good)

For anything else get the iphone
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mingonn:
Hi all,

I think my Streak may be kaput. Connected my streak to the car charger yesterday and noticed it wasn't charging. It went flat unusually quickly after that. Tried plugging it in to the home charger, the laptop and another car charger I had in the second car but with no avail.

I am on the stock 407 olleh rom.

I have an external charger and a spare battery which gets it to boot up but it still isn't charging. It is recognized as a usb device and fastboot still works but no charging.

It appears to enter dock mode on powering up and I get a 'Speaker Out' - Turn off device speaker? prompt.

After you power down all 3 leds start flashing simultaneously every 4 seconds continuously.

I have tried the following with no luck.

Replacing the battery.

Different usb chargers and cable

Powering off with the battery in whilst connected to my PC, removing the battery, replacing it and starting it again with the USB cable connected.

Factory reset.

Any suggestions? Was hoping to get another 6 months out of my Streak but it might be time to shell out for the Galaxy Note and hope for a better hardware and software experience.

[Android Software Development] teorouge:
Thanks, can you download apk's with no country restrictions? I'd need Japanese ones...
[Android Software Development] pesaroso:
Hmm, handing over username and password to a third party? :/

Are the apk's bound to the Google account somehow? If I leech an apk and share with a friend (paid app), won't they be able to track'em as pirated apk's? :)
[Android Software Development] bibovodanh:
Thanks :D Greetings from VN :D

Yes. I forgot to add it to this version. I will fix this tomorrow. Be patient :D

I don't really get what you mean. But what this tool does is just fake a device to access Google Play. It's more like when you use your phone to download apps from Google Play. So email, password and device id are required. I could just hard code an junk account to my tool. But it's not good idea, not flexible.

If you're worry about the safety of your account, just make a junk account on an Android phone.
[Android Software Development] pesaroso:
Aha, I see! I thought the app connected through a third party, so one could easily sniff passwords to our Google accounts. Thanks for the clarification!

Looking great! :D
[Android Software Development] bojanbl:
Looks great but there is one security flaw here... Your app saves user acount ID and password on hard disk as plain text so someone can get our password and ID...

Thanks for this app ;)
[Android Software Development] ngh55:
Great job, just another bug report, there are names with backslah also "/" or "\" so it gives an error when downloading, for example https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.toggle3g

So my suggestion is to remove all extra characters from name parsing or take the name from the android manifest or something like that :P that is how some batch rename tools work.

Also if you can remove the "v" from the version that would be cool and another small request, to have the rename like this "namefilewithnospaceandlowercase_versionwithoutv.apk"

If that can be done, man, It would be really cool, and I thank you in advance for such cool app.
[Android Software Development] bibovodanh:
As promised, new version 1.1.9 for removing country restrictions. Now you can download app with japanese, chinese... Just go Option to choose your language/country.

Thanks for your help to debug my app. Yes i already know about the restriction of file name in Windows. But didn't think there are some app with symbols rather than ":" :confused: I will fix that in next version. Also i might encode to secure your info too. About your rename suggestion, ngh55, i'll think about it. Thanks so much.

[Android Software Development] GuenChan:
This is a great app!

I love it...

And it becomes better and better!

I suggest you (the app programmer) always write in your app description how to create a new, anonymous google play account to use in this app. People should not (and do not want to) use this app with their real main google account that is also their gmail, google+ account.

Something like:

"For your own security and anonymity, do not use your real google account in this app. Create a new anonymous google account, download 1 free app from google play to enable this anonymous play account, and then use this new anonymous google play account inside this app."
[Android Software Development] bibovodanh:
Thanks for your very helpful tip :D I'm happy that you all are using my tool. Of course i don't do anything that is harmful to your accounts, but it's still neccessary to warn pplz for security reason.

Hello, hope anyone can help me out.

I created a new Google account, activated that and input user/pass/device id in the app. It works ok but even if I select Japanese market I can't find

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.bandainamcogames.www.ar_taiko

and

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.namcobandaigames.NBGI0080

(just a couple of examples). Why is that?
[Android Software Development] bibovodanh:
If you search them on Google Play, you'll see that they are incompatible with your device. The problem is you cannot find the apps that are incompatible with your device.
[Android Software Development] teorouge:
Thanks, I thought so. That's a shame, though, any chance this could be circumvented? I know for sure the apks instal and run ok, I tried an older version and it's fine.

[Android Software Development] kokabunga:
Cool tool.

Can I suggest a feature : many games require additional data to download.

Can you tool do it?
[Android Software Development] bibovodanh:
Actually, the problem is the apps not support the device's country. On a rooted phone, you can install "Market Enabler" to fake a Japan carrier to download. I'll see if i can do anything with this problem. Thanks for reporting :D

Well it's hard. The download link is stored in the apk file. In the pass, for example, Gameloft, they use a static link that links to the data source. But now, they are using a dynamic php link. It's way harder to leech thier data download link.

Great app, but it doesn't works in my PC... help

Hello there, I downloaded the 1.3.5 version of the application, but I cannot download any app from the Google Play... Everything is right configured, the problem is that when a download starts, it always stop before reaching the 100%, and the file is always truncated. I've been reading this thread, and I'm not pretty sure, but it could be that in my PC the application is downloaded really fast, and the download finishes, in fact, before saving the data to the hard disk (I have a 1Gb connection to the internet, so it is posible)... if I'm right, then there's a bug related with this in the app. I've tried with small apps and big apps (I mean, some kb, and a bunch of Mb)....

Thanks anyway for this program, I think is a very good one and it can solve lot of problems....

Anyway to fix this problem? :(
[Android Software Development] damjang:
Same errors here :(
[Android Software Development] rydraj:
That is only cosmetic as in, the file is being downloaded correctly just the values sent to the progress bar are incorrect.

So, if you wait, at some point the progress bar values will stop changing which means your app would have been downloaded.

To the OP;

I changed the data type of readed from int to long which solved this issue.

Not exactly a bug, I think the OP forgot to include aapt.exe in the latest version.

Download and extract the source code and copy aapt.exe from lib folder to lib folder of Real APK Leecher and run it.

It should now scan everything correctly.

Is this app working still? I cant get it to work on 3 diff PCs, with using 3 different device IDS/Google accounts white it worked week ago without problems.

Bad device ID

Internet Connection

You didint purchase this app

EIDT:Never mind it just started working sunddenly :)
[Android Software Development] exodius48:
How to do that?

Already did. I have 1000+ APKs in my computer, not all of them can be scanned. :(
[Android Software Development] rydraj:
You have to edit it in the source code and recompile. I referred that to the developer.

I checked and the error code is HTTP 429 which is "Too Many Connections".

I think it's due to too many requests being sent to Google requesting apk information. So, it's Google that is blocking you.

The only solution would be to try after sometime but since this program doesn't store any app information locally, it's not possible as it will again start scanning with the first app.

I'll see if it can be fixed.

Today I find that also Multiling Keyboard is not found. How this problem be solved?

Multiling Keyboard
[Android Software Development] damjang:
Hm... this is what I have:

This is with my account. If I try the sample account don't work...
[Android Software Development] rydraj:
Then I think it's due to Location/device restrictions etc. Also, Google has changed quite a few things in Play store these days so who knows.

eg, If I search "Real Racing 3" via the tool, it doesn't show up BUT if I search online, it's the first result.

The thing is searching from the tool is similar to searching from the Play Store (on Android), I have a Xperia U which isn't compatible with Real Racing 3 so it doesn't show up on the mobile so maybe there is some kind of limitation on both those apps hence they don't show up.

I discover what is wrong: I don't know how but my Android ID was changed. I only know that when I update my android version I restore the old ID with Titanium Backup... But after that I use Real APK Leecher without problems. Maybe it was changed when I install google play cracked app? I don't know...

Ok, now I discover the new ID: first I try with *#*#8255#*#*, but in JB 4.1.2 don't work. Then I remember that when I use Total Commander Android ADB plugin it shows the Android ID of device, but this id is not the correct one. Also Titanium Backup shows the Android ID (you have also the option to restore the ID from backup), but also this is not the right ID. Finally I install Device ID app and have the correct Android ID that work with APK Leecher :)

Now APK Leecher find all the apps correctly!!!
