Hi, Guys, I want to confirm this, I put one application to the market, but no payment settings set now, because I live outside of America now, I want to use local card, which does't have a routing number, is it allowed? I post the message here because I can't start a new thread, why? I also don't know, there seems many issues with google systems, big pity.

I've had a couple of cancellations but I have no idea why!! Does anyone know a way for UK developers to see the feedback that users have given their applications? I understood that UK users wouldn't be able to download applications on day 1 - but developers not being able to see their own feedback? Crazy!! How am I supposed to provide any kind of support? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Only if your apps are NOT protected, which is what I did. The protection is pretty ridiculous anyway. I'm SURE Steve Jobs is laughing his ass off.

Thanks Jon - that's a good tip.

[android-developers] Re: Paid apps related questions discussion list?
OK, I'll start here then... 1. Where are my apps? I released 2 apps yesterday, 1 free (limited, lite, demo, whatever you call it), and 1 paid. Yesterday both were in Market. I had a few sales, and about 1500 downloads of the free app. I talked to Jay @ cyrket.com and he said he can't see the games on his device and that I probably seem them because the Market client in my G1 cached it. Guys, do you see Droid Breakout or Droid Breakout Lite on his phone (it's important that I get answers from those of you who haven't downloaded it ever)? 2. Can someone @ Google fix the problem w/ cancels. I had 7 cancels, all with this message: You cancelled this order. Reason: Other (describe below) Message sent to customer: Refund requested from phone. Well, where's the describe below message? The customers could have said something valuable like: - I thought I was buying a different kind game, sorry - The game is unstable or slow, etc. - I played enough for the 24 hours FREE period, thanks Google 3. The Developer Console is OFF by at least 1 hour. I don't understand how caching works, but Market is not a search engine - we need kind of real-time or reasonably delayed updates. I have to track both via the Google checkout account and via the Developer Console to understand what's happening. 4. Ratings and comments - this is the WORST designed feature I've ever seen in software. EVER. Users rate the software for the bad experience with Market, e.g. I've got: Wudlnt install 4 me - 1 star Cant download - 1 start etc., etc. Is this *my* software's fault? Re comments - where's the ability for us, developers to reply to comments? I tried modifying my own comment on the game, keeping it for about 30-40 minutes, then altering it again to answer another user. I have even more and more questions, but these above are real showstoppers. Especially cancels w/o a reason and w/o the ability to dispute a cancel. If I don't get answer soon I don't have anything else to do but pull off the apps because apparently 1) (missing apps) prevents me from selling the game and I haven't wasted months for nothing.

Yup I share a lot of these frustrations. I now have a return but absolutely no idea why. I don't know whether my app is visible to all users in the US or just a subset. I have copy protection enabled, so maybe as above it's causing my app to crash? Who knows - I can't download it to try it myself (I'm in the UK) and I can't even see the feedback for my own app!!

I'm getting some users who can't download updates either. They can get the first version and then when I push an update, it just sits and downloading forever. I haven't experienced copy protection causing crashing, but I'm sure it is only a matter of time...

[android-developers] Re: Paid apps related questions discussion list?
One more data point for the copy protection concerns. I had my paid app using copy protection, and apparently some people were able to find it for awhile - I got two downloads and an email from AdMob asking me to advertise my paid app with them. I, however, could not see my app on my ADP1. While I scurried about the internets trying to find out why, I check my phone hopefully every few minutes, and, oddly enough, an hour later I could see my app. I went to sleep and checked the market again 10 hours later, and my app was gone again. I saw lots of complaints about copy protection and turned it off. I just checked my phone now, 10 minutes after turning off copy protection, and I can see my paid app in the market again.

+1 for not being able to install updates. I asked them to uninstall and reinstall but no feedback yet. This is RIDICULOUS, Google shouldn't have put the paid apps-enabled Market before testing it to death.

Many users who try to download paid apps are complaining that the downloads are not actually working. Google needs to display a support e-mail regarding Market issues in plain site so that users will not contact developers for payment and download related issues.
