edit: nevermind said you couldn't find it in your purchase history

what app?
you can send a screen shot of your purchase history to the dev and he should be able to help.

On a side note, not sure how much help your going to get with this as its in a gray area about piracy and actually backing up your apps (which their are programs that do that)
and no forum I know condones talking about that

It was a kit for storm8 games that helped do different thing in games but I don't have the developers email cause I can't find the game in the market on any phone

You would have to "crack" the app for it to work on your phone, which requires coding knowledge and is illegal. But since you purchased it you just need to find the developer's website. What is the name of the app?

You can use Astro to do a back-up of the .apk on your friends phone (it will be saved in the backup folder) long press on the apk and either e-mail to your phone, or use dropbox to download it. As long as it is an app you've paid for, I don't think there is an issue using this method.
