Hi,
I've been searching around for a few weeks now, looking for a solution to run Pingit on my rooted device. Stumbled across this this evening, and followed the steps to change the root access of my phone.
This still doesn't enable me to even download the app from the Play Store, however.
I'm running Slim ICS 3.5, and I'm wondering if the app is not yet compatible with Android 4.0.4? I've look all over the place for the APK file to give it a go manually, but to no avail.
If anyone could help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it.
I can get it to display in the market, but download does not work. It says not available for your country. I am from India.
It says you need a UK mobile number.

Thank for trying anyway.
I can find it in my previously installed apps list, but it won't let me download it with this ROM, citing that it's incompatible with my device. This goes for apps like Sky Go, too. It's almost as though the Play Store doesn't recognise my phone as an SGS2!
I've tried downloading the .apk file with the APK Downloader extension for Google Chrome, but I get a '403 -forbidden' error. Only on this one app, mind you.
If anyone has the app already and can extract it for me, I might be able to install it manually and hide root to use it?
Flash Siyah kernel and install ExTweaks of the Play store, with ExTweaks you can remove root and Pingit works fine!

Just tried this. It removes root fine, but my Play Store still doesn't allow me to even download Pingit, let alone use it.

Cheers mate! Much appreciated!
Tried renaming it from .zip to .apk, but the install fails. Then re-read your post and realised that it's just the data, not the app itself. I'm an absolute noob, so don't really have any suggestions on how to extract the apk file, but someone else might?
Sorry mate, I know what it was.....
...I was dual booting a Sammy ROM with Siyah!?!
When I look on the Play store I don't have the same message but if I try to install from Slim I get a 942 error?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Aah okay. I've not even begun to think about dual-booting.
I did, however, flash the stock Samsung ICS ROM and installed Pingit. Backed it up with CWM so that it would make a backup of the app. Then I restored Slim and Siyah so I was back to where I started.
Tried to restore the app with Titanium Backup. It says that it's been successful, but there's no sign of the app in the drawer or any data at all.
Would have been easier to just back it up with TB then restore, I've never tried extracting from a nandroid? I know it's possible, I just haven't tried.
I've managed to restore Pingit from TB onto Slim ICS 3.6 but haven't tested it because when you uninstall it you loose data and have to phone the Pingit helpline to get your account reset, will test tomorrow.
I can't extract the apk because it's a private app for security reasons, my knowledge of apk's is limited.
Titanium is your only hope or Siyah dual boot!

Hi all, I just found a workaround so that we can get google wallet installed on our phone and get it to work as well. Here are the steps
1. Go to menu. Enable Flight mode
2. Enable wifi and connect to the internet
3. Go to the market and type in google wallet
4. You will see it and download it.
5. After download, EXIT OUT OF FLIGHT MODE BEFORE RUNNING THE APP.
6. Run the app and you are good to go.
I hope this works for you guys and any problems and comments are welcomed for discussions. Thank you all.

So a few questions...
1) Is your phone rooted or stock?
2) If rooted, what Rom & Kernel are you using?
3) If you phone unlocked (SIM Card Unlocked)?
4) Are you using your home WiFi?
5) Are you in the USA when you downloaded it?
I think if these questions get answered, all of us would have a better understanding of how you did it...
Thanks!
Managed to get it downloaded from the market.

Go check out this app in the market.
It creates a zip of your apps that you can flash in cwm when you wipe phone. I know for a fact it doesn't work on Eugene's cm7 but maybe it works on other Roms. Test it first

For addictive flashers like me, this application is a God send!!
There are some bugs but here's the way to fix it:
0. Install the APPS2ZIP application from the link above.
1. Get a root file browser
2. Copy the "update-binary" file found in any T989 roms ZIP file \meta-inf folder.
3. Paste/overwrite the file here: /data/data/scd.app2zip/files
and then run the APPS2ZIP to create the update.zip file.
I have tested this file and it works great!! Its like flashable Titanium Backup restore !!
Well looking here we can make it work. Ill be testing on my lunch break!

Yes, it restores data as well. Infact its the bad thing, I wanted it to have the option of just restoring the app and no data.
Not sure how the folder structure for CM7 is, I tested it on BeastMod5. Can you look in /data location. It should be there.

You could always clear the apps data before creating the zip.

I can't count the hours I spent re-setting up all my apps after flashing. I never want to use Ti backup since I screwed it up once. This seems much easier for me.
EDIT - What's the difference between free and paid? Usually there is a change log. Or is it just a donation version?
Not to sure. All I know is that this thing is awesome haha. An integration with cwm would be cool

Any luck with that yet? I am in a similar situation. I flashed CM10 but miss the stock alarm clock. I am currently using Alarm Clock Xtreme from the play market which is the closest I have found so far.
Trying...
I am new to this so I have been trying to teach myself as I go. This is what I have done so far:
1) I managed to get the .apk and .odex from stock.
2) Copied them to the system/media folder
3) Matched the permissions on them both in ES File explorer.
4) Moved them to system/app
4) Restart device
This is still not working and will not install. I feel like I am either missing a crucial step (most likely) or it is not compatible.

If it's a Samsung touchwiz app it won't work for aosp roms, without some modification to the app itself, it's not compatible.
I recently disabled this service on my stock JB device. I took a look at the OS logcat file and was concerned seeing approx 100 errors every few seconds. Attached is a sample, which repeated along with lots of other mystery errors. Anyone know what it means? There were no signs of trouble using the phone, but seemed excessive. I had tried the widget once a few weeks ago, then removed it. No alarms were set. Am I over reacting? What does it mean?
Sorry for the html tags. Also attached link to full log file if anyone has any insight into this or the other errors constantly thrown. Is this normal?
Thanks!

This looks like it requires some hardcore reprogramming which unfortunately is beyond my capabilities at the moment. I am self teaching myself this stuff as I go and have minimal programming experience right now. Coming from TW to an ASOP rom can be tricky from what I have been reading.
Titanium backup doesn't seem to work on this tab (or maybe on 4.3 yet) They updated it but that didn't do it. Anyways now that roms are rolling out I would like to be able to flash without losing stuff Any suggestions of an alternative app for now?

Also, copy rather than move...

I also had problems with Titanium Backup but it turned out to be problems with permissions even though I gave it full permission. When I loaded up the SuperSU, it said it needed a binary update, and after I did that the problem disappeared. See if you also need an update (it required a reboot).
mine works with no issues on stock 4.3 rooted
The only thing that seems to not stick for me is breaking an apps market link

The easiest way to do this is by closing TB and then go in your file explorer (i use ES file explorer) and rename TB folder. I usually add an S in the end and when i copy them back, i remove the S. The reason is that TB backup files are being used by app in tablet rather than USB storage. Thus they can not be read.
Also you can freeze TB from Settings.
Then connect your tab via usb and copy it.
I hope that is easier !

Was wondering when this would be pushed out, good find!
EDIT
If you try to download the APK from the MegaUpload link in the OP it requires a decryption key. You can get it from the 2nd link, or I also uploaded it to Android File Host for redundancy sake.
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23578570567717101
By the way, if you're unclear how to install this, I would suggest following these steps:
Backup your current version of the Play Store via Titanium Backup.
Uninstall your current version of the Play Store also via Titanium Backup.
Connect your phone to your computer (make sure you have the USB drivers and AndroidSDK installed), and permit ADB access to your computer from your phone.
Run the following command from a command prompt on your computer.
Code:
adb install Google Play Store_com.android.vending_4.9.13_80290013.apk
Optional Use Titanium Backup (again!) to convert the new Play Store app to a system application.
Enjoy!
Or you can just copy the APK to your sdcard and run the APK directly from your phone, but I tend to prefer using ADB. Either way, I would suggest backing up your current Play Store and its data.
Great job bro
Is this the only way to get it?
Edit-i found another way of gettin it...but I dont think im allowed to post...
Try install apk like normal and it will overwrite current app. Looks a whole better I think.

You must install as regular apk, or rename the package linked on AFH to Phonesky.apk and then push to system priv-app.
Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk
When I installed the app via the APK (and ADB) it installed it as a user app, so I had to use Titanium Backup to convert it to a system app. Just a heads up if anyone sees something similar. Also, before I installed the APK I removed the version I had with TB (after making a backup). This let the new Play Store build its own data and cache, so there would be no issues.
If you don't want to mess with any of this it will eventually be pushed out to your phone. No ETA of when, but eventually.
