I was reading earlier that Google is limiting de-authorizing devices to 4 per year. This will be a big problem for me since my s2 is registered as new device everytime I flash a new rom.
What to do...

They could have atleast warned us. I hae 3 old devices on there now that I cant deauthorize!
Well I'm fu**ed... I have nine on my account with no deauthorizations left..

We will have to start using the browser version on our phones to get around authorization, Or edit our build prop on every rom so it identifies as the same device to google.
When I read about this on AC this morning I tried to deauthorize some devices and got the over the limit message; however when logging into Music a few hours later I was able to do it to a bunch of devices. Guessing Google got too many complaints about this today and changed policy.

Just go into settings and delete the devices.. That's what i did... Works fine

Done and done!!!
subsonic...no song limit, more privacy (as I own the computer that acts as the server), direct transcoding from FLAC, dont have to upload anything but instead transfer over my lan at 40Mb/s. Optionally streams over SSL for even more privacy. Been running for 120 days uptime now without a hitch or hiccup on an atom cpu.
I gave up on online-cloud crap a long time ago.

How do I edit the build prop?

just came across this: http://www.theunwired.net/?item=lim...ion-to-four-devices-per-year-only-update&6239
looks like they modified the policy due to the backlash of complaints.
Ever since I got my SIII, I've been having problems with the Play Store. Anytime I go to purchase a paid application, I get the error "Unable to retrieve information from the server [DF-DFERH-01]. Googling this error only shows me a bug that affected the GTalk a few months back. But the even more odd thing is, its starting to happen on my N7 as well. I can download free apps fine. It looks like it's having problems initilizing Google Wallet for the purchase. Wasnt having these problems with my other phone (EVO 4G LTE on Sprint). Is this a known bug with T-Mobiles networks? I've tried it on multiple wireless networks, as well as HSPA. Even had my buddy sitting right next to me try and he could download fine. I'm rooted on CM10 today, but I've tried 3-4 other ROMS with the same problem. Almost positive its tied into my Google account. Did the basic troubleshooting steps such as clearing the Play Store data/cache/uninstalled a Google Play Services update, and re-added my Google account. Is anyone else experiencing this? And if so, is there a known fix?

I did actually. I switched to ParanoidAndroid for a second to see a new build. I screwed around for a few seconds then uninstalled it.

How would I tell that? It was set to stock when I flashed PA. And I set everything back before I flashed back.
Could also be a problem with your account like you mentioned. I think some people have had problems when having multiple services associated with that account. Maybe create a new account and see if it still happens. Dont know how inconvenient that may be for you.
But if its happening on different roms and devices then its surely the account. Maybe contact google support?

Yeah. That's kind of worst case scenario. I know they're a PITA to get in touch with. That's why I was seeing if there is anyone else with this problem that could possibly help me fix it.

I've tried that already, and still no avail.
And it's still happening. I guess its time to get in touch with Google.. :/
Is anyone else using this free app. If not, WHY. Absolutely love it! Get your phone SMS to your tablet AND PC!!!! You can also respond via tablet and PC.

Pretty simple to set up. Not sure how or if this will piss me off in the long run, but I'll let you know.

I use it from my tablet, phone and computer and so far it's working out great! Haven't noticed any delay or anything, but so far it's exactly what I was looking for.

Cloud SMS user here.
Similar to Mighty Text, but higher rated and has a $.99 price tag.
Extremely responsive Dev who is always improving/tweaking it.
This type of app is a must-have for me as well.
Been using it for about a month now myself. No issues, works great.

Same here. Devs were responsive for a few emails, and then they just sort of dropped off. Please let me know if you get this figured out. Are out using Handcent or Go SMS on you phone?
That happened to me as well. I unlinked my tablet in the settings and added it back again and it fixed it.

Devs were the same with me, responsive at first, then gave up. No extra sms apps installed so that's not the problem. Also tried resetting everything, but no joy.

Yeah, I tried unlinking and relinking. Didn't work. I decided to just pay the $5 per year and go back to DeskSMS. It has been super reliable across any and every build on my phone, and its companion, TabletSMS, has worked with both my Nexus 7 and my TouchPad. Worth the money to me.
App store issues?
I just picked up a Nexus 7 the other day and went to download Mightytext from the app store and it is saying my device is not compatible? I feel like something is very wrong here. Any suggestions?

Derp... wrong app. Finally figured it out
I use it but I'm a little concerned about privacy... Its obvious the actual texts and phone numbers are going through mighty texts servers to get from AT&Ts system to my nexus 7 which is only connected via WiFi, or is that incorrect? I text a lot of highly sensitive info due to my line of work. I hope I'm worried for nothing because its a great app and one more reason to put my phone down while I'm on my tablet.

I think it's going through googles servers since you login with your Google credentials, but I guess that could be just for authentication. If you need more privacy tablet talk syncs via Bluetooth but I think you have to pair it a lot.

Yeah I had tablet talk for awhile, I just hate having to connect it every time. I'd love for someone to give us some clarification on my privacy question. Lemme see if I can search for the answer. I'll post it here if I find it. :good:
Love this app
I love this app so much I made an inverted version. Screenshots attached.
I will upload to test if anyone is interested. Then I will start a post for it once I know it's working for more people then myself. I only themed hdpi so Nexus 7 only for now.
Let me know please!!!!!
iMessage.... What a complete and total copy..... Granted, you can easily say the same for this app and Whatsapp. Idk, I think this is easier and much better than whatsapp (used both). I messages claims to use phone number only.....so does MightyText....
What do you guys think?

I will assume everyone knows about this app. You can basically track and wipe phone remotely and many other features. It is only free for today so go grab yours today.
Steps:
1. Download Cerberus
2. Create Account
3. Receive e-mail with license
If you cannot connect to services get on 4g/data and it'll hopefully good through.
Some info from their facebook page: (https://www.facebook.com/CerberusAndroid/posts/472927216123259)
A couple of clarifications on the promotion we are doing with AppGratis:
- The promo will end at 1 PM GMT, June 7
- It is only for new accounts created in this time frame. So if you already have an account with the free trial expired, unfortunately you can't get the full license for free.

Playstore:

so if i register during this period is it for lifetime free>?
did u tried??
even i want it for free
the app is best in its class but didnt wanted to pay so never tried

Yes I tried, I got the e-mail almost instantly. Took me awhile to register because servers are getting hammered.
But if you tried the trial, it my not work with the same account.

If you did the free trial, unfortunately it won't give you the full license since its for new accounts only. I would recommend grabbing another android device that you did not use the trial on and creating a new account with that.

Try to do it through 4g/data, the servers are getting hammered so that error message is normal because I received it too.

Easy fix:
1) Go the the Cerberus login page and enter your info
2) Once logged in (if your trial is expired) it should give you a message saying "Your trial has expired!"
3) If you see the trial expired message, you should also see a "Delete Account" option on the same page, click that
4) Once your account is deleted simply download/reinstall the app and register again (you can even use the same info)
Voila! Free license!
Didnt try it but read it in reddit Try your luck
THanks a lot, uff that was close its almost 1am
So I flashed a bunch of roms over 2-3 days trying to find something different that I'd like. Now no matter what I try, I can't get this to go away.
I've searched and experimented for the past 2 days and I can't get anywhere.
-clear app cache
-clear app data
-remove updates
-format sd card
-factory reset phone
-turn off location services
-turn off wifi
-try new apn
-install stock rom
-install various other roms
-delete cache, permissions, etc
-different gmail accounts
-sign out, reboot, sign in
I've literally tried everything out there that I can find by searching. The last thing I haven't done that I will have to try if I can't do anything else is to "un-root" my phone back to stock.
The weird thing is if I Check the play store, it says apps are installed. But they aren't.
Any one out there have any ideas?
Going back to stock won't fix it either. It a problem on googles end.

It allows you to change your location to france, Canada or wherever which in turn changes your IP address. It doesn't change your location permanently of course, only while your connected to the app. I looked online for ways to fix the package file invalid error and this was one way posted. It definitely works if you have this annoying problem. I even went ahead and purchased the pro version of the app I posted. Lol.

I still have not fixed the issue. I was stuck on trying 2 to 3 apps that refused to work. Looking across the board, I am able to download probably 80% of the apps that I try. Nothing has allowed me to get the other 20% that refuse to work so far.
I've tried the VPN app....I don't think there is anything else out there on my end that I can do. It's weird, I can download 5 apps in a row, then one app will give me the error, then I can keep on chugging if I choose a different app.
its happenning to alot of people, myself included...no big deal, as no app is "life critical"...
when google gets it fixed, it will be back to business as usual, so just be patient
