So me and a co-worker decided to test some apps today and we went for the niche of male gay apps.

*Note: All of the mentioned apps were downloaded from the Google Play Store on September 5th 2013 and converted the same day. We tested them on the leaked BB10 v10.2.0.1443 with the leaked unlocked android runtime.

Working apps:

• Bender ::::::::::: http://apk2bar.org/bar/51/ea/167915/...v1.2.420.0.bar
• Adam4Android ::::::::::: http://apk2bar.org/bar/0f/58/180290/..._v1.0.15.0.bar
• Scruff ::::::::::: http://apk2bar.org/bar/2a/ca/175163/...v1.0.223.0.bar
• Boycrush ::::::::::: http://apk2bar.org/bar/f2/2a/145836/...2_v1.0.7.0.bar
• Boyahoy ::::::::::: http://apk2bar.org/bar/49/df/161921/..._v1.0.98.0.bar
• Hunters ::::::::::: http://apk2bar.org/bar/da/e0/180292/..._v1.0.32.0.bar
• Grindr :::::::::: Read the post :::::::::http://forums.crackberry.com/bb10-an...ng-z10-856190/
• Planetromeo :::::::::: use the same method as Grindr, follow the link above
• Hornet :::::::::: use the same method as Grindr, follow the link above
  
  

None working apps (links are for reference)

• Whosf*ckin Gay edition ::::::::: shows splash screen but shuts down immediately after ::::::::: http://apk2bar.org/bar/7b/41/180291/...y_v1.0.3.0.bar
• PlanetRomeo ::::::::::: fails to run ::::::::: http://apk2bar.org/bar/5a/3e/126394/..._v1.0.77.0.bar
• Hornet ::::::::::::: fails to run ::::::::: http://apk2bar.org/bar/94/50/171533/..._v1.1.57.0.bar
• Jack'd :::::::::::: fails to run ::::::::: http://apk2bar.org/bar/47/6a/171304/...id_v1.8.7a.bar

So there you have it, stay safe.

That's what I was thinking! Haha but so did Howard and the others..

Bro, you should consider posting this on the sticky with confirmed apps.

I did consider it but that sticky is such a mess and the list in the first post hasn't been updated since the beginning of August, not to mention there are different BAR's of the same app in there...
CrackBerry needs a bar file repository so we can see what version of what app on what date has been converted and what works and doesn't.

Something like DragonByte Technologies - Premium vBulletin Modifications (first one I found with Google search, I am in no way related to this...)
Come on CrackBerry

Any idea if the final 10.2 updates with the 4.22 Android runtime will fix our little, ahem, niche male-app problem?

I've read murmurs about a missing Google Maps-related API, or some such. Anyone know if we'll good full access once the updates come rolling in?

Have you tested Jack'd?

[anon(1464249)]

I haven't tested Jack'd. I will do so today and add it to the first post when I get the chance.

Some of these apps do rely on the Google Maps API which as far as I know isn't included in the Runtime. These apps will work except for the portion that shows a map. Case in point is Instagram, which works beautifully except for the part in settings that allows you to see a location of your photos on a map.

Will they find a way to include this? I don't know, I hope they do as more and more popular and social apps include a 'see on map' feature. I don't think it's that difficult to port as the Android Runtime is pretty powerful but they may hit some legal issues we're not aware off anyway, only time will tell.

Added Jack'd. Unfortunately it fails to run.

You're welcome!

More good news I have a working PlanetRomeo doing the same thing I did with Grindr

Thanks for the info, added it to the main post.

Now you can add Hornet and PlanetRomeo (uncut) to the working list with a debug token
And can you test if they work with the unlocked Android runtime?

This isn't a side load but using Cascades I was able to write a basic app that let's you use uncensored Adam4adam Radar, do you think BlackBerry would allow this in BlackBerry World if I submitted it?

[anon(1464249)]

Go for it. If it's not frowned upon by the creators of Adam 4 Adam you won't have anything to worry about. If it is, they'll take it down.

Looked into it further, looks like the nudity makes it a no go on BlackBerry World. Might upload the BAR later.

Great idea.

If you're willing, I'd suggest to release your source code on GitHub with an MIT license and allow others to see and use your method freely. Sharing is caring and who knows, people might learn from it.

Now about the BlackBerry appworld thing, i'm guessing you are referring to this section:

Sexual Content
•Apps with any pornographic material, graphic sexual content and/or nudity will be denied
•All dating apps must have an ‘Adult’ rating, appropriate UGC safeguards and a TOS stating that users must be over the age of majority in their region
•Any app that contains, promotes, or otherwise facilitates escort services or prostitution will be denied

I'm pretty sure dating apps like the ones in the first post of this thread are allowed in appworld, as they don't come default with any imagery, but rely on users subscribing and posting pictures of themself.
I think if you'd submit this with the appropriate adult rating, a good description about the app and a TOS as requested, it will be allowed.
