Smile Side Loading Apps

Hey, so I just have a couple of questions.
1. I know I can't side load apps, but what if they are apks. I download online but are on the market (i.e no betas etc.)
2. Either than rooting, has there been a way found out to ENABLE side loading apps?

Thanks In Advance Everybody

1. not sure i follow. you have the apk of an app that is in the market but want to side load it anyways? i'm assuming it's a paid app that you bought directly from the dev?


2. you can load non market apps using adb even if you haven't rooted your phone.

I don't think anyone is going to help you put stolen apps on your phone. Which app is more than even $5 that you want? The developers spend their free time making a great app, and you're not even willing to pay a few cents, even though you're willing to use the app they spent hours working on?

The phone has been rooted so I don't see why not. Soon we have have custom firmwares and other firmwares to download as well.

sorry panda, you took a bite out of forbiden fruit. XDA will not support, condone nor facilitate pirating in anyway shape or form.

Talking about things like that is not only wrong but can get people, websites, organizations, etc in trouble. Ya know? Ya know know?
