Download Android apps without Wi-Fi

DarkTagnan -  
Hello,

I have two questions regarding the Samsung Galaxy S Plus:
- Is there a way to download applications on your PC and then transfer them via USB to the phone for use (without going through the Android Market)?
- Can we use our PC's internet on the smartphone (also via USB)?

Thank you in advance and Happy New Year 2012!

P.S: I don't have Wifi (pertinent remark, I know)...

    Hello,
    To answer your question, yes you can download applications on your computer and transfer them to your phone by putting it in mass storage mode in settings>connection>USB. One of the sites I know for downloading is FILECROP, but if you download a paid application it is illegal.
    The second solution is to use your PC so that your phone is connected to the internet; I know this option exists on HTC but I'm not sure if it exists on Samsung.

    Goodbye and good luck.

    Be careful when downloading with 3G, downloads are often limited and incur extra charges if the limit is exceeded.

      Thank you very much for your response!

      In fact, are we forced to use Wi-Fi or 3G to download apps?!... Doesn’t Android offer anything via USB?!... Or did I miss something...

      Anyway, thanks again.
