Awesome, that did the trick! Using the GSF-ID from BlueStacks, APK Downloader is working again for me!
[Android Apps and Games] KeylanHalfdan:
Does anyone know how to get this to download for incompatible devices. I used the old extension before to download some Japanese games on my phone when it said they were not compatible. But both the old and new are saying "cannot download app" now. They let me download apps that are compatible for at least one device just fine.

The app is Samsung remote - tab. I have the regular one, but it acts up sometimes on my galaxy tab 10.1. Reviews on the market say people have it on their galaxy tabs, both 10.1 and 7" version, but the market still says incompatible.

I am guessing that Google raised their security for these kinds of things?

Any help would be appreciated.

the extension suddenly stopped working this evening. login data and device id is correct, even re-logged-in.

JS console: Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 403 (Forbidden) https://android.clients.google.com/market/api/ApiRequest

Browser: Iron 21.0.1200.0 (Developer Build 151001 Windows) (this very build has been installed for a while and used to work fine)
[Android Apps and Games] Bexton:
Yep recognized the same just a few minutes ago. And I used it today for several downloads. Seems like Google is getting more and more strict on this topic. I'll check on that tonight or tomorrow and will post an update whenever I find something..
[Android Apps and Games] Bexton:
Update: I flash a couple of builds every week. Thus, I get a couple of new Android Device IDs every week. For the last week I used the extension without changing my Android Device ID in the extension settings. Even though I know I must use a "valid" device ID which is associated with my Google Account, the extension worked all the time with the ID that I initially set it up with. I was surprised, but didn't cared about it because it worked. Anyway, tonight it stopped working, as mentioned in the last two posts. However, logging out at the extension's options page and logging back in with my current Android Device ID, made the extension start working again! :)

We will see, how long it will work this time.. ;) Anyway.. If the current version stopped working for you, try to logout and login again with your current Android Device ID. (For the ease of use, I recommend to install my App "Android Device ID" -> http://d-h.st/u1B)

Hope this helps.. (Feedback appreciated)

I tried to download This but I keep getting a pop up saying "Error cannot download this application" any suggestions ?
[Android Apps and Games] Bexton:
Have you read the last post (one page back) about updating your Device ID on the settings page? Anyway, I was able to download it. Find the apk attached to the post.
[Android Apps and Games] XlAfbk:
I had already logged out and in again. The ID is the correct GSF one currently used by my phone. Is there any information I could provide that'd help you?

Edit: Here's a funny one: I logged out again, entered my login data and device id, copied the stuff I entered to a text file. Again the error message. Then I uninstalled the extension, restarted Iron, installed the extension, copied the login data from the text file and it's working. Guess something in the internals of Irons extension storage must have been quirked.
[Android Apps and Games] Bexton:
Glad to hear it is working again. :)
[Android Apps and Games] JoxeeM:

[Android Apps and Games] XlAfbk:
If apps are shown as incompatible with your device get a modded Play Store apk that has restrictions removed, e.g. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1580827

Certainly that issue shouldn't be in this thread as it's not caused by/related to the extension.
[Android Apps and Games] KeylanHalfdan:
I have tried that modified market back when it was 3.5.19, and it would always give me connection errors, much like the legacy play store did.

As far as requests in this thread, there have been others in here. The original extension thread is full of people requesting others with the extension to download apps for them when the extension has not worked for them. There was a request a few posts up, and I think the person who made this new modded extension posted the app for them.

I can try the modded market again to see if I have any luck with one of the newer versions.

[Android Apps and Games] XlAfbk:
the modded market never gave me any connection errors

just because OT posts are tolerated shouldn't be an invitation for anyone to post them. the right place for a request would be a dedicated thread or a general apk requests thread imho
[Android Apps and Games] Bexton:
No chance for me.. Have no modded Play Store App on my device and my device is not compatible with the App.
[Android Apps and Games] KeylanHalfdan:
Oh well, thanks for trying. The extension works great on everything else I have tried. Thanks for that :)

I tried to put the modded play store on my phone, but when I tried to uninstall updates to the play store it said uninstall unsuccessful. After that i clicked on my play store, and it said "app is not installed." Had to reinstall the play store via titanium backup.

Guess I will have to wait for the day Samsung makes it compatible with my tab again on the market.

[Android Apps and Games] Bexton:

[Android Apps and Games] sivsiv:
Hey guys,

I did a quick search and didn't find any mention of anything to do with paid apps. The original app website said that you could download a paid app if you purchased it, but I never used the original app so I can't be sure if that's true or not.

What I do know is that the current extension works great for me, with the exception that I can't download my paid apps. If anyone knows a workaround or fix (short of downloading a virtual android OS on my pc) it'd be much appreciated.

Also DL purchased

I changed line 7 in background.js, so the extension would also download purchased apps and not just free apps from this:

b && b.html && -1 < b.html.indexOf('data-isfree="true"') && chrome.pageAction.show(a)

to this:

b && b.html && (-1 < b.html.indexOf('data-isfree="true"') || -1 < b.html.indexOf('data-ispurchased="true"')) && chrome.pageAction.show(a)
[Android Apps and Games] XlAfbk:
i wonder what the original reasoning behind not offering it for purchased apps is
[Android Apps and Games] Bob_Funk:
The original extension did DL paid apps, the author changed it to prevent piracy.

I'm working on repackaging these for a BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha, mostly just for fun. Some are available elsewhere already in the BlackBerry 10 or PlayBook .bar format, but they're older versions. I have an old Droid that I'm going to use for APK Downloader's Device ID, but first I have to dig it out of whichever (of the twenty) boxes it wound up in the last time I moved and update it so Google Play associates it with my email address.

Thanks!

I am not sure, but you do need a device id. Not sure if you can use a device id with an email that is not associated with it.

I tried this with the older version of the extension and it worked, but I have not tried it with her versions of chrome and the newer extension. Not sure if Google has fixed that glitch or not.

You rock! Thanks so much.

In my experience, yes, your email must be associated with the device ID you're attempting to use with Google Play and the APK Downloader. Not sure if there's a way around that?
[Android Apps and Games] Mekanikz:
I do have my device ID filled in for the extension, but my Google account does not have any device associated with it. Could this be why I'm getting the SSL/Device ID error?

[Android Apps and Games] The_Steph:
Bexton,

Your chrome extension looks wonderful but unfortunately, its behaviour is strange to me. I was hoping your extension solved the issue (to me) the incremental update introduced by latest Google Play versions (i.e. being able to get apk from /data app and reflash lastest version after full wipe instead of flashing old versions that needed to update) but I can't.

I can download easily adobe flash player (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.adobe.flashplayer) that is not compatible with my mobile (Galaxy Note with JB) but I can't download any apk for the free applications I have installed on it.

Correct information (gmail address, password, GSF ID and country/operator) is entered and validated. I consistently get "Forbidden Error 403" error and don't get anywhere trying to find all advices posted on this thread (unlog/relog among others).

Is there a secret formula to make it work (specific chrome/Google play apk versions combination)? Is it because I am a flashaholic?

Thanks to anyone being able to answer :)

Hey guys,

I was able to download a bunch of apps maybe 1-2 weeks ago, but I tried again today and am unable to download anything. Keep getting the error "cannot download this app".
