| Jul 8, 2013 at 22:40 | comment | added | android developer | that's reverse engineering. such a thing might broke up some day. anyway, this is quite an interesting tip, but i think that i will just leave this question, as it seems google made a good job annoying me with bad updates. | |

You get the IP address by doing one of the following: 1) Decompile the google play apk, search for the methods that responsible for the store update, look if there is a url that the app check with and then use nslookup to check what's the domain IP address. 2)Use tcpdump on your device and wait for the google play to check for update. After you are sure it updated, you can stop the tcpdump and start researching it on wireshark. Both are not so simple, it's up to you:) | |
