How To Get Full Free Android Apps and Games Without Rooting and Without Having an Account

Not everybody has an access to an email or gmail account. Surprising as it may be, some people who owns an android phone doesn’t even have an access to a Google account, though there are only a few of them. However, some people don’t really get the most out of their Google accounts on PlayStore for a number of reasons. One thing is that they don’t have a credit/debit card associated with their Google wallet to purchase stuff on PlayStore, or they just don’t want to spend money on little things that they can find there. There are tons of free stuff on the PlayStore, but the best usually comes with a price.
So how do you get to try them out without having to go into the trouble of setting up a bank account or a credit/debit card just to get them? You can try getting these apps in an alternative way. Most of the paid apps are available on sites like android.mob.org and http://apkmania.co and most of them doesn’t require your device to be rooted at all. Just make sure that your phone’s specifications meet with the app’s requirement, especially the GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) with certain games like Modern Combat 4, Dead Space, Asphalt 8 etc.
In order to download an app, usually, you’ll be needing to download the APK file and the Cache file, which you usually put on the “SDCard/Android/Obb” folder on your phone. Also, be sure to have your phone accept installation from Unknown Sources. You can toggle this in the Settings menu of your phone.
To do this, download any desired app by going to any of the sites mentioned above. It is very recommended to do this on your desktop or laptop, instead of using your phone as you might be barraged by endless streams of advertisement (that’s the price you pay for being a freebooter). Once you get both the APK file and the Cache file (usually inside a zip file, just extract the folder that contains the obb file), transfer them on your phone. You can do this by connecting your phone to the computer directly and enabling USB Storage mode.
Once done, disconnect your phone to the computer, launch your File Explorer app (most android sets have this) and browse to the directory on your SD Card where you put the files. Install the apk file first, then once done, copy the associated folder into SDCard/Android/Obb folder.
After this, you can simply launch the game. Some games require root access, but in case they do, you can just root your phone by following this extremely simple guide.
Still, if you have access to these premium apps, remember to keep supporting the authors of these applications, so the Android industry wouldn’t die out. This guide is just for educational and trial purposes only.

Android App Danger : Thousands of Secret Keys Mean ‘Security Risk’ In Your Android App

Android App Danger : Thousands of Secret Keys Mean “Security Risk” In Your Android App
Reports have surfaced about Android apps that could be very troubling for many Android OS users. Thousand of secret keys have reportedly been found in Android apps that can mean a security risk for those who use the apps. Since apps posted and sold in the Google Play Store do not require any review, no one can be certain if the apps being bought and downloaded are secure or risk-free.
Google has downplayed this risk, ever since the Google Play Store went online, and many Android users feel that the risk is worth getting so many wonderful apps for their Android devices. Still, concerns about Android security always crop up now and then, especially if there have been reports of hacking, and other illegal activities that point to certain Android apps, as the culprit.
This concern is what prompted a team of researchers from Columbia University, to explore the vulnerability and security issues in Android apps. Jason Nieh, a computer science professor, and Nicholas Viennot, a PhD candidate at the university, analyzed over 880, 000 apps in the Google Play Store, and their findings were a bit troubling.
Nieh and Viennot managed to decompile such a massive amount of apps (from the existing 1.1 Million apps in the google Play Store) by using a scalable tool called PlayDrone.
PlayDrone was specially designed for such a task, and it enabled the team to use “hacking techniques” in order to go around the security protocols implemented by Google, download the Android apps, and analyze their sources and content.
Nieh and Viennot discovered that the app developers “often” store secret keys in the app software, just like a “username and password” key, which “can be used” to steal the data of the user and other information from online accounts like Facebook and Amazon.
These “secret keys” are not only employed by small “ suspicious” developers, but even by recognized “Top Developers” that Google Play recommends.
As of this writing, Google has not released any statement about this report, but we can be pretty sure that they will be implementing some drastic solutions in the next few days, to maintain the integrity and security of the Android OS and the Google Play Store.

How To Crack and Hack Wi-Fi Passwords

Disclaimer: Before you proceed, we would like to be clear first, that, cracking and hacking your neighbor’s Wi-Fi password is very unethical. This is just a temporary solution for an urgent need to connect to a wireless internet connection. We do not recommend doing this for extended periods. We will not be held responsible for any damage that may occur (especially on your credibility and your relationship with your neighbor), so do this at your own risk.
WiFi Hacking Guide
There are several ways on how to crack your neighbor’s (or anybody else’s) Wi-Fi password. The problem is, not every method is as easy as clicking a few buttons. Some even require some extensive work, which you might find not worth the trouble anymore. Wi-Fi connectivity has become a basic necessity in our lives and you would be able to find wireless hotspots, almost everywhere. The sad thing is, not all of these hotspots are without any sort of security measures. Of course, why would you try to connect to a network which is not intended to be shared with you? There are times when you just need to, especially when your own internet connection is down.
One of the best and easiest softwares to use is Aircrack-NG. It does the job of cracking the password by tracking out all the packets from the desired network.
Once everything in the disclaimer is clear to you, and you still want to proceed with hacking some Wi-Fi password, you can now start by downloading the CommView app. This is an essential part of the whole cracking and hacking process. It will ensure that wireless card you are using can go into monitor mode in order to properly capture packets. Simply download, install and run the application. After a few minutes, you should be able to see a list of all nearby Wi-Fi networks and some details on the security they use. You should be looking for WEP security enabled Wi-Fi networks ONLY as this guide will only work for that method.
Also make sure that you target a network with the highest signal (of course, low signal means slower internet connection). Once everything is set and you have decided which network you want to connect to, just click Capture. Be sure to set the Maximum Directory Size to 2000 and Average Log File Size to 20. Also enable logging tab on top and auto saving.
Once you’re done (or at least you got 100,000 packets), you will need to export them for Aircrack-NG’s use. To do this, go to Log Tab, and click on concatenate logs. Simply select all the logs that have been saved. Once done, navigate to the directory where the logs have been saved. Open the log file and Export it by selecting File>Export>Wire shark tcdump and save the .cap file anywhere you desire.
Now the final part of this hacking process is to open up the .cap file in Aircrack-NG. Just run the GUI, select WEP, choose the .cap file you saved, and click Launch. It will show you the wireless key after a while, but there are times where it will request a few more packets. Just repeat the process above.

 

ACER hacked by Pakistan Cyber Army



Yes ! you read right , ACER hacked because of their own stupidity. Yesterday we report that Pakistan Cyber Army hacked Acer Europe Server and 40,000 Users Data, Source Codes & Server Compromised .http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif


Today we investigate on this and try to find out that how exactly Pakistan hackers got the FTP access . Here in above image you can see the screenshot taken by us from a ASP forum of Acer-Euro. Acer ASP Support Team posted some Hot Fix Release and give FTP access to other members , so that they can download that Hot Fix. This was posted on January 11, 2008 . Pakistan hackers got this and explore the FTP and In "PB" directory they get "Country Wise Customer Data.zip" file, which include the 40000 users data managed according to country wise.


Now this Data breach is only because of ACER's own Stupidity. The link of Forum post is "http://asp.acer-euro.com/FORUM/Topic472-8-1.aspx".

Aldi Bot - Buy a Botnet just in 10 Euros

 

Researchers of German security firm G Data have discovered that a bot builder dubbed "Aldi Bot" is currently being offered for that much on underground forums. The Aldi Bot Builder appears to be based on the ZeuS source code. The malware has nothing to do with the discount supermarket chain and it is not clear why its author chose to name the bot after Aldi – it is thought it may relate to the bot's discount pricing. Company says "We’ve encountered a bot sale, which, in case it finds followers, can cause a massive glut of malware all over. The so-called “Aldi Bot” first appeared in late August and has been sold for the initial price of €10! Parts of the bot’s code oddly look like ZeuS code…"
The Aldi Bot can read (saved) passwords from the Firefox web browser, Pidgin IM client and JDownloader download tool, and send them to a command and control server which is included in the €10 price tag. The Aldi Bot can also carry out Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks, as the bot's author demonstrates with a YouTube video showing an attack on the German Bundeskriminalamt (equivalent to the UK CID) web site. The bot can also be set up as a SOCKS proxy to use infected computers as proxies for protocols of the bot herder's choosing. Infecting systems with the discount malware does, however, require additional measures, such as exploit packs on infected web sites.
