When you are using CLI mode, you just have to know the versioncode. CLI mode is meant to be used for scripting (e.g. for running a nightly CRON job to fetch updates) or for retrieving an arbitrary (usually not the latest) version of an app. Unfortunately, there is no way of telling Google Play: "Hey, I want all the versioncodes for this package".
[Android Apps and Games] TheMurrey:
Okay! Can you give advice how to batch receive latest versioncode by packageName for scripting (possibly via other software)?

On first start the app need login data.

the app says "Android ID" but this is wrong, Google Service Framework ID is needed!!!

use Device ID to receive your GSF ID: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.evozi.deviceid

please add current version to overview :good:
[Android Apps and Games] alebcay:
Wow! Very nice work so far. I don't my Google stalking me that much, so not exactly my cup of tea, but still a useful program to work with nonetheless.

This is my two cents on how you could make Raccoon better:

Integrate support with `adb install` or something like that for auto installation to devices (kind of like what Google Play normally does)

Set up some sort of a package manager - don't just replace Google Play, beat it at it's own game. Allow users to autoupdate (maybe make a companion app on Android as a bridge to interface with desktop app if necessary), allow users to pin apps at a certain version (i.e. opt-out of updates), etc.

Allow archive to be periodically cleaned

CLI interface - e.g. `raccoon install <some.ID>`

You also asked about improving the UI - I personally thinks it needs moar COLORS! Namely, try to add some more of that Android green into it (especially those grey rectangles)

I have no experience in this field, so I don't know how hard it would be to implement those changes, but I feel that those would truly make Raccoon a stellar replacement for Google Play.
[Android Apps and Games] onyxbits:
Eeeks! Ok, this is embarrassing (a follow up mistake from the underlying library already using the wrong label). I'll fix this with the next version.

Adding the current version to the overview is not possible. That information is only made available by Google Play when doing a details query (and those are too slow to do them for every item in the search list).
[Android Apps and Games] onyxbits:
I have plans for a completely revamped UI, which will also include a nice way of transferring apps. It's a bigger project, so this will take a while.
[Android Apps and Games] bigboolean:
Would I be able to download apps/games I paid for on Google Play? Some games that have gamepad support isn't listed as compatible with my ADT-1 Android TV.
[Android Apps and Games] CHEF-KOCH:
Paid apps are bundled with your account, if you paid for it you can download it. If you asking for illegal downloading paid apps, no it's not possible and never will be with the official apis. Other apps also can't do this, because as said google check if your account paid for this.

Great and open source app, keep up your good work buddy! :)
[Android Apps and Games] bigboolean:
Yeah I was talking about apps I paid for, but I noticed some mess ups when I would install my copy of Sonic 4 episode I & II, when I open both they crash immediately. I copied the obb files for both games and sonic 4 ep I would just give me a black screeb, while ep II would crash after starting the game. But at least the Orange Pixel games work.
[Android Apps and Games] hadi_rena:
Probably those game incompatible with your TV device.
[Android Apps and Games] bigboolean:
Yeah possibly, I only wanted to see if they did or did not work, since Android TV is a new form factor alot of apps I own aren't capable with it. But my copy of Sonic 1 and 2 works, only thing with Sonic 2 is that can't login into my Google Play Games account due to an option on the Developer Console.
[Android Apps and Games] FlamingGoat:
This is an absolutely fantastic app so a million thanks for developing it! I'll be donating as soon as I get the chance.

Some of the suggestions above are good but I'd also love to be able to have a view with all my apps listed and from which I can easily remove those I no longer use. Also maybe be able to set a max number of apks (inc the pinning of a fave/safe working version one you know), and perhaps be able to allow the folders be named in a more understandable manner such as the app name rather than the data folder it goes into (maybe add a txt file with that name in the folder in case we can't remember where it goes.

Probably unrealistic but no harm in asking :)
[Android Apps and Games] onyxbits:
I have been busy with TradeTrax (an investment tracking tool) lately, so I didn't have much time for Raccoon. But now that that's finished, I'm planing on doing a major rewrite of Raccoon. In fact, I even want to base the upcoming v4.x branch on the same foundation as TradeTrax. Opinions anyone?
[Android Apps and Games] SenK9:
This is a fantastic project and deserves more attention. Even though many people nowadays don't really care about privacy, for some of us, something like this is incredibly useful in using an Android device without signing in to Google. For me, this is one of the last, and most difficult steps.

Having said that, there are a few things which I think would be good to see in the next release, namely:

- Being able to choose where the Raccoon data directory is, I like to keep a neat /home dir

- Showing list of purchased and installed apps for user account (like the history page of Play Store)

- Keeping all the APKs in one folder, which makes installing to device via adb much easier

- On startup, auto scan the data folder for existing APKs, optionally, one click to install app via adb

- On update, display changelogs and permissions changes first, before confirming update

- Going even further, group by permissions required (ie. showing all apps which require X permission)

- Import not just by URLS, but by APKs already existing in data folder, this is a feature which GPD has (http://codingteam.net/project/googleplaydownloader)

- On current import by URL, the apps show up correctly, but downloading requires individually clicking on each one, a 'download all' would be good

Keep up the good work! I'd like to donate financially to do my bit, but I can't find an option to on the homepage?
[Android Apps and Games] onyxbits:
Hi,

You can specify where Raccoon keeps its file via system properties: java -Draccoon.home=/somewhere/else -jar raccoon.jar

Raccoon has no way of knowing what is actually installed on your device, so a list of installed apps is not really possible

Putting all apk files into one folder is slightly problematic with the update process (tons of trouble figuring out which packages to update) and users trying to find anything manually. It wouldn't solve your ADB problem as you'll potentially have APKs of different versions lying around as well as OBB files.

I don't have plans to support ADB. Besides the trouble with relying on external tools (is it installed at all? Where is it installed? Which OS specific quirks do I have to deal with? Which user specific quirks am I dealing with?), I find USB to be too slow to push (a batch of) apps. I have something else in mind there that should be easier and faster to use (WLAN based).

Yeah, the update process could use a lot of tweaking. in particular i should look into the possibility to receive Google Push messages.

Importing APKs is possible. You'll have to use a filemanager, though.

I added a Paypal donate button to the handbook :).
[Android Apps and Games] SenK9:
Thanks for the reply, I understand what you mean by ADB being troublesome, that's understandable.

My suggestion with ADB was leading towards a suggestion of some kind for easy way to update apps on the phone from the desktop app, maybe something tied in with listing installed packages on the device via 'pm list packages' and then comparing local APKs to see if any have been updated in the desktop app, then install the apk automatically via pm install. In other words, something as seamless as the Play Store app, but on desktop => phone.

It sounds like you have something planned with a local app installed on the phone, which seems alot more logical.

You'd probably be shocked at how I was planning to do it before that - a Virtualbox VM running Android x86, with Google Services installed, which automatically updates, saves the APKs via Titanium Backup to a network share, which is then synced to the Google-less devices. Not the most elegant solution!

On a related note, I tried launching Raccoon via "java -Draccoon.home=/home/me/apk/ -jar raccoon.jar"

- On first run, folder structure in ~/apk is created correctly

- On searching for an app, the icon is successfully stored into ~/apk/cache

- But downloading the app, the download path goes back to ~/Raccoon/ again

- Quitting and restarting with the same command line ignores the ~/apk path and goes back to ~/Raccoon

Does this happen to anybody else?

Also - small donation to show my thanks 1D295205L7195110B :)

Raccoon v3.3 is out. Release notes here.
[Android Apps and Games] shahrulghani:
Hi there and great work! Will you be making a Mac version of Raccoon soon?
[Android Apps and Games] onyxbits:
Raccoon is written in Java, so all you need to run it is a JRE.

Somehow XDA finds geniuses and vice-versa.
[Android Apps and Games] shahrulghani:
You forget to add snobbish nobodies who thinks that everyone is well verse with computers to you highly respectable comment there, IMHO.
[Android Apps and Games] BigMatza:
I was having the same issue, and it's because my Google account has 2-step verification. I'm surprised more people don't have this set up. Anyway, the solution is to generate an app password specifically for Raccoon. Please add this to your FAQ when you get a chance.
[Android Apps and Games] onyxbits:
Thanks! Updated the FAQ.
[Android Apps and Games] Danilo Pantelić:

[Android Apps and Games] onyxbits:
Quick status update: Currently there seems to be a large scale DNS outage with my hosting service. My webserver is running, but the hostname cannot be resolved to an IP address. Since DNS is a distributed and cached database, it will take several hours till everything runs smoothly again. For those who have an urgent need, the only workaround is doing name resolution yourself by adding this to your hosts file:

212.227.251.101 www.onyxbits.de

UPDATE2: Everything should be back to normal again.
[Android Apps and Games] gschanuel:
This is exactly my case too. Will try the app password ;)

thanks

[edit] worked like a charm :) [/edit]
[Android Apps and Games] Mercennarius:
Downloaded this to try and install APKs that my device is not compatible with. When I search for an app I get a list of about 10-11 apps but generally none of the ones i'm looking for. Does this have every app from the play store or only a hand full? Example: I search Google Drive and the closest thing that comes up is Google FInance.
[Android Apps and Games] nussbaum:
The search results are divided into pages, there should be a page counter somewhere, top right IIRC.
[Android Apps and Games] Mercennarius:
Yeah still not fixing my search results. I'm getting only like 7-14 apps returned and most are not even relevant to what i'm searching. Does this not have all the apps from the play store?
[Android Apps and Games] Anroks:
does it have an ability to download paid apps?
[Android Apps and Games] MajorWinters:
Yes of couse if you paid them before!

Dont ask for illegal things here but I thinks that was not yout intention ..uh?! :laugh:
[Android Apps and Games] thorcyar:
Hello I just registered a new google account to test this app, I have the same issue. I went to google play store and there is a supposed "T-mobile gt-i9300" device under the "my devices" section ... I (we) need to fake that to make google think we have a compatible device, but I don't know how...

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] sunny460:
Hi Saatvik,

I saw the post and couldn't control myself and so downloaded the ROM and installed it by performing all swipes. BTW, I didn't flash the Kernel included in this ROM as I'm in office and I don't have option to install flash tool in my ofyc PC.

So i was on DARK Kernel. I saw few screen lags while locking and unlocking, broken screen while scrolling.

After reaching home, I flashed Kernel in the ROM.

everything is super smooth, lots of features.. Full happies.... :D

But Wi-Fi is not working eventhough I was able to connect to Wifi while on DARK KERNEL.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] braca1965:
this rom is amazing:laugh: .everything works fine and alot free memory on neo v.many tweaks and good walkman player too...camera make very good photos with option for manual focus,....i wil test batery life with moderate use ,and with wifi opened all day,so i wil report,...i put some screenies from my neo v,for now everything works fine ,no bugs on my neo v.congrats Satvik:good:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] kavb1986:
Everything's fine except battery..

Review

One of the best roms for neo v..

Played some games with decent graphics and they went well..

Butter smooth performance and speed is good..

The only drawback is battery stamina which lasts only for a day under moderate use too..

I didnt do any browsing and games...

Wifi worked well all the time without any signal loss..

Hope the next update is as good as this..

Thanks @ Saatvik Shukla
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] braca1965:
does this kernel and rom suport usb otg?(neo v rooted & unlocked)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Saatvik Shukla:
I think it should support otg without any issue . Try it out ;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] braca1965:

Hi.how is battery drain?this one is really important for me!BTW my device is Neo V.sorry for my bad english
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] deccan451:
For battery backup try other roms all kk roms have drain problem..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Saatvik Shukla:
Although since this particular build is not not the pretty much with the latest sources,

A bit better backup can be expected as it doesn't have the wake problem
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Ramin2097:
I'm currently using Xperia Ultimate HD ROM and has a really good battery backup and drain.It drains 0.75 to 1% per hour when I don't use it!but some roms...:eek:I slept with 50% battery and when I woke up..my phone was off!:|
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] medo_h_e:
what about 720p video recoding and sensors specially the screen goes off when on calls ?

GPS working or not ? any fc on maps or compass problem ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Black_Eyes:
Will You Update this Rom?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Saatvik Shukla:
Perhaps there is a build of 2 days back in the afh folder, but since i have not been able to test it, i didn't explicitly post it here.

But you can try it anyways.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] vishvish3:
