What you ask about is called "Sideloading", and no Android devices need to be rooted to do this. All you have to do is go into the Security settings on your phone and enable "Unknown Sources" to be able to install apps from places other than the Play store.

Just be careful what you install.

Also, I don't understand the humor? : /

Is the picture supposed to be funny? :) how so?

Well, it's fail for that too, but what the guy was TRYING to do is poke a little fun at Samsung's adverts. "Designed for humans" is a bit of a slogan for Sammy... Hence the 2 aliens in the pic not being able to use the phone.

    Official Off-Topic Thread


    Hi to all from the moderation team. With a fast growing community there is a massive amount of general off topic chit chat going around in this forum. So we thought it best to give all a place to have a chat. This should hopefully take some pressure off the forums, so making it a better place for us all as there should be less junk to wade through trying to find what we need.

    Now with that said, this does not mean there are no rules to this thread. All of XDA rules still apply. Flaming and the belittling of other users (of any title) will not be tolerated and dealt with harshly by the moderation team. This should be a fun place for us all to have a chat and a general vent of frustrations. Any moderation issues should still be handled by PM.

    Let the fun begin!

    OK Guys, i hear you. The intention was not to only shut the Indian thread. It was shut because it was not titled as a Indian availability thread more a review/specs thread that i wanted to pull all together into one place. The OP is even written as such, so its very misleading. If its misleading to me then it most certainly is to a new user. So we have two options here, either open a new properly titled thread or the original one gets edited by the OP to make it a availability thread, which is fine.

    Personally at this point i think a new one would be better, with the OP written with a current availability and a proper title. This would be much more helpful for all, as wading through all the previous old posts would be tiresome.

    As i said, i am working to make this forum a nice place for all users, hence the pooling of information in the sticky threads. What i dont need is PMs that some of which can come across as very pushy. I do not respond to these sort of PMs. I am not saying i dont want to hear users suggestions, they are appreciated. Just try to do it in a polite informative manner, i am more than willing to negotiate. Not saying all the PMs were pushy, just a couple, so dont be offended.

    So what are your thoughts, anybody up for starting a nice informative OP for a Indian availability thread?

    All those people trying to complete their 10 posts by posting useless comments should know that this is against XDA's rules. If a mod comes to know about this, he can reset your post count to 0, and can even ban you.

    Mod could have just changed the thread title if he wanted to. Locking the thread down was wrong.

    Anyways, as there is a New similar thread now opened, alls well thats ends well.... :)

    Its been settled, drop it! I have explained the reasons why it was closed. You just stirring more trouble up is not going to help your cause. My advice has not been taken and the OP of the new thread is still not up to the standard. Now i suggest you read before posting again!
