I have placed a ticket to mediafire tech support (twice) without answer: I have created two different accounts, totally different info, one free and one Pro (pay). None of them show me the Create new application box in My account->settings->developer. The emails I have used are verified...any clues? Thx
Ok, they are not giving API keys anymore:
"Currently we are not offering the API key option. We may offer it again in the future but at this time it has been disabled."
Wasn't better if they just said so in the place, instead of showing a link that doesn't say anything about it? Oh well...

I would like to offer a 7-day trial period for people who install my chrome extension.
After that, they would be required to input a licence key (purchased via gumroad) in order for the extension to continue to work.
I do not want to deal with registrations (emails, passwords etc.). The big risk is that the user simply uninstalls the extension when the 7-days are up, and then reinstalls it.
How do I offer the trial and avoid this scenario? Tie each install to a specific IP address perhaps?
Unfortunately you do have to deal with some sort of registration.
User installs app
Have them log in/register to start using it
There's an article about it that might help you with it, ideally using the user’s existing Google account instead of registering a new one: https://developer.chrome.com/docs/webstore/identify_user/
After read lots of other posts and could not find an answer, I ask if someone had the same problem.
I wrote two versions of the same APP: one for free and another paid version.
Hours after publish both, only the paid version can be found in google play. The free version does not "exists" if I use the search tool (using web or devices), but it is PUBLISHED in developer console.
The most weird is the fact I also can't find the application clicking "More From Developer"! Where the free version is?!
Comparing the Manifest of both, they are the same except the package and name.
Any one can help? Thanks!
Answering my own question: there is a bug in the new layout of developer console. I added two languages in my application: English, Portuguese. But instead of create two different languages, developer console added English twice. With the old interface I removed the second language and create a new Portuguese translation again. It worked!
Background to this problem: Within out company we are working on an add-on to help us do some nifty things. To make it easier to administer we would like to have a password required to at minimum remove the add-on, but probably also to disable it.
I've seen this achieved in for example Public Fox but this is non-sdk style add-on. So my question is if there's an easy way to do this using the SDK? I've looked through the docs but I haven't found anything, probably because I don't know what I'm looking for.
To anticipate the question "why not use that add-on as well?" I think it's enough of a hassle to make sure everyone has one add-on installed, let alone two.
If you want to lock users down, what you're really looking for is a deployment technique where your Firefox deployment installs your extension by default, and to an area of the hard drive that the user does not have write/delete access to. See the Mozilla Wiki for more details on ESR builds and enterprise deployments:

I have a windows phone 7 application which I need to distribute to elements of my company. How can I achieve this? I do not want the application to be on the marketplace because it is a corporate application which should only be visible and used by elements of the organization.
Is this possible?
Best regards,
Bruno
There are 2 options currently open to you:
You could use Beta distribution as Tom says, but that's limited to 90 days and no updates.
You could also publish the application on Marketplace, but make it hidden so that other users cannot search for it. You would need to send your users a link so that they could install the app. See MSDN documentation.
However for the 2nd option you should beware that anyone would be able to install the application if they know the link for it. So if you need it to be secure you need to provide some other mechanism to lock it down.
There has been news about a private distribution model for corporate applications, but this is not available yet. For now you can use the private beta distribution for this purpose, all you need is a list of the Live IDs used by the people within your company.
I wrote a blog explaining private beta functionality, you can find it here
Is there any Remote wipe application which will be working on deleting the data in Emulator by sending an SMS from other emulator?? I found some of the free applications in android market on Remote Wipe.. But they are not working..
Please let me know if any of the application is working on Emulator
Thanks in advance
Uday
There is just one remote wipe application I have come across.
I have been trying to write one such application myself but I believe the permissions required are 2nd level and 3rd level permissions (check this link and this link). Thats is the reason I am unsuccessful as yet. I believe that you basically need to sign the package with the same signature as the OEM manufacturer to be able to grant those packages to your device.
If by an stroke of luck you do happen to make one successfully, please let us know the permission you have used to make such a thing possible! =)

EDIT: Okay I supposed I am wrong. I believe in android 2.2 it is possible to remote wipe your. I have not completely understood how to implement the function or the class yet, I plan to work on it as soon as I can spare some time. :)
Reply:
Well I have been looking at the SDK for some time now, and I can confidently tell you below 2.2, I am pretty sure there is no way I know of to remote wipe your data. I have although read on the mailers list that there is a function that enables a third party client to create a remote wipe application as you may have seen in my post above. I have actually use my own port of android on a device and have just used the brick, but if I do come across any reference that can show how you could achieve what you desire, I would be happy to leave a post here. Regards Shouvik.

also for formatting the SD card I came across a permission that you can request, I guess you follow that you end up at the method.
