Google play music & movies no longer in market?

I am running stock ICS yakju build and I no longer see Google play music or movies in the market. Does anyone else in Canada or other regions see this. Seems weird for pre installed apps to no longer show. Especially for updating purposes.
Yes, I cleared cache and data etc...

I've pulled them from AOKP M4 for you.

I can still see Google Play Music in the Market but not if I do a regular search for it. I can find it under My Apps>All. It says that there is an update (v4.1.513) but when I try to apply the update it says "Update for Google Play Music could not be downloaded due to an error (940)". My installed version is v4.0.1.501. Running 4.0.1 yakjuux.

Still there for me on the LTE version. Running Codename Android 1.5.5 and Google Play 3.4.7.

In that case I would guess that the newest version is only compatible with 4.0.3 or higher. I presume OP is on 4.0.2, so my guess is that Google is blocking the new music app for incomparable ICS versions. Probably still works anyway if anyone so chooses to install the apk, just not tested fully.

I not that I don't have the newest version, its that it is no longer in my apps list, so when a new update comes out, it wont be in the market for me and presumably other canadians.
Can other people in Canada or anywhere outside the US check to see if it is still in their market?

[Q] Installing Google's Car Home app on the S3?

Hey guys, I wound up digging around wanting to add Google's Car Home app when I flashed a couple different ROMs and lost the similar app that came from Samsung. It wound up being pretty simple to do and it's been working great on my S3.
I wound up writing it up on my blog, you can find it here:
Manually Installing Google's Car Home App
The steps I wrote aren't necessarily specific to the S3. I had success with a few other Android devices too.

I haven't tried your version yet, but with previous versions on my VZW SGS3 Google Car Home loads and runs fine, but as soon as I customize it (add / remove apps), it no longer loads and FQs.
Have you noticed anything like this with your setup? Thanks!

No, I haven't noticed anything like this at all. That seems weird to me (although, I imagine there's a reason that Google doesn't list many devices as compatible in the Market).
I would recomend trying the version I've got out there and then also maybe installing it as a System App to see if that fixes your FQs?

I used TB to pull com.google.android.carhome.apk (v2.2.1) and com.google.android.cardock.apk (v2.2) off my Thunderbolt running 4.0.3 (I can't even remember what rom it's running now). After installing both to my GS3 (4.1.1 stock), Car Home seems to be working fine. Good thing, too, because all the alternatives in the play store suck.

Any way you could post those APKs?

[Q] No apps after updating to jellybam, suggestions?

I recently upgraded to jellybam and noticed it was missing almost everything that I
needed to function with on a day to day basis and this is okay, except for some things.
I already looked allover XDA about this and noticed there really is not much on the topic
so I feel help is needed at this point.
What I am wondering the most is where is the video player...?
Also, the camera layout on jellybean sucks, is there anyway to change this?
Any help is appreciated!! Thank you

Well i guess the rom comes with lesser apps than a rom would from the factory. As for a video player i have super video and i'm sure theres a few other good ones. About the camera layout, i don't think you can change that.
Edit: And i am also running jellybam.

Did you update to a custom rom, or did you update through kies. Either way, when you updated you could have restored your phone through google and all your apps shoudl have re-downloaded onto your phone. if thats not the case, open up your play store, hit the menu button, and tap on my apps. after that you'll see a list of all the apps you've downloaded and you can re-download them.
as far as the camera on jellybean not being great, you could always flash a different camera onto your phone if you are rooted. 4.2 camera is super nice.
and i just started using MX player and its pretty nice. Free and has a lot of codecs.

In a lot of Roms you have to reflash "gapps" search XDA for latest version. It is all the Google apps.

The jellybam rom comes with gapps i think he's talking about some samsung native apps.

If you updated to a stock firmware you should get the GAPPS automatically now if you install a 3rd party ROM like AOKP or CyanogenMod you have to install GAPPS manually just Google it you can find lots of information on it online

Play Store main screen never updates

hello all ,
im a newbie from india in xda and got a fair bit of knowledge of rooting through this awesome xda.
i have rooted my note 2 and installed a custom rom.
however,i updated my play store when google asked me too.earlier in the older version of play store app,the recommendations used to update regularly with different featured apps and games . but now with the new UI of play store ,the recommendations never change, there are categories like Comics ,new movie releases,personalisation,platformers,actor highlight etc. They never change.Tried clearing cache too.Any suggestions why this thing is occuring? or can i go back to the old version?
thanks in advance
cheers

Maybe try downloading other apps. Like music, and photography only. So maybe it's going to update??. Or try downloading custom playstore from xda thread somewhere here.
