Pages which need certificates to auhenticate do not work for me too...
i managed to finish the transaction finally when i chose to browse pages on desktop view and disabled mobile sites in settings. BUT i can't remember if it was with the built in browser or the opera mini....but it worked!!!!!!!!!
On all my devices I never pick view mobile version or 'hint for mobile version' settings. It always ends up causing problems, especially on newer smart phones I use. Always the best thing to turn on desktop view if its there

Dropbox issue

Hi People,
I'm using an omnia 7 right now, it appears that after trying 3 separate apps to connect to the dropbox, I keep encountering the Login Failed - Please check your username/password error.
I am able to login on 2 other laptop, 1 desktop and my milestone so my login credential is definitely correct, can someone advise?
I use boxfiles and do not have this problem. Maybe you really are just typing your password in wrong on your phone keyboard.
doesnt seems like the case, i did look at every key i typed, well I tried over 50 times, hardly possible to miss a key in all those tries?
Anyone know of any free dropbox apps in development?
have you tried it over wifi? if it works over wifi but not over you data connection, perhaps your carrier is blocking it?
I tried both wifi and 3g.
edit: I just did some research on the net that apparently iphone/ipod touch had this issue before due to the time settings, but that has been checked and it's still not working.

[TUT]How to use Google Music outside the US.

Since i done a bit of research and dug around a bit on xda i finally came up with a thread that shows me how to get it working. And it actually does and i for one find it amazing.
What you get is with Google Music you get to have a 20,000 song space over the air firstly. That is awesome. You can play music offline or while you out and about and that frees space on your phone. More details regarding Google music you can get it here
Now on with the tutorial:
1) First download hotspot shield from here
2) Once you downloaded then install it on your pc. Once you install then start it up. I suggest to use either Firefox or Google Chrome.
3) What hotspot shield does it basically does is to use your browser as a VPN. That gives the impression that you are in America for example and you can download google music. Think of it as market enabler that you use on your phone for apps that are only available in the US or other countries.
4) Once hotspot shield is installed run this and the "shield" will go from red to green. This means it's running.
5) Then go to play.google.com and then to shop->shop music and register or login with your gmail address.
6) Download and install google music manager and exit hotspot shield.
7) Once done enjoy your music on any phone. For android just download the apk given in the OP.
So there you go...a very nearly full functional use of google music....let me know what you think and if it's helped you out. Feel free to share the guide if you like. Just make sure you ask me first and give link of my thread to yours. Once you finished all the setup and everything else with your account, no need no longer need to use hotspot so you can uninstall it from your pc
Thanks to truthlesshero for his guide that helped me get me started.
Google Music Manager download from here for MAC
For Windows it is here
And if this guide has helped you out do not forget to hit that thanks button
Doesn't work.. asks me to "Add a new payment method", if I click Cancel or the X in the top right, it doesn't proceed and doesn't setup my Music Library and cannot upload music, and it doesn't actually get the Free song I chose.
I think they have worked out this method and are now asking for a USA credit card to confirm you are a USA citizen, even tho they do not charge your card.
Bummer..
I just used a free VNC, like TunnelBear, and created my account through web browser.
I have an account with http://uktvproxy.co.uk/ for watching SKY UK as I live abroad now. I signed upto to Google music a few months ago, put all my collection online and the best thing is that it works just fine on my mobile without having to be logged into a proxy.
It's a good service, but for me, on my other phones there has been about a 3-5 second delay in between changing songs - that feels like an eternity to me. Not sure how to improve the speed.
If it ever gets like spotify, where the music starts/changes almost instantly, then I'd use it more often.
I have no issues when using on my pc though.

that requires you to download the tor browser and although it sounds easier i can sure it does not.
look all you do is download hotspot shield. then install and start it up. get firefox up and running and then just go into google music and follow the steps...piece of cake..once you setup your account with google music and set up everything on pc which it takes five minutes, then all you got to do is just start listening to music. and every time you go on google music on your pc just make sure you sign in with your email account that you set up the google music with..and then you can uninstall hotspot shield
not working for me either. I'm using Tor browser, if i browse to whatismycountry.com it tells me i'm in the USA, so the proxy is working. But when i go to music.google.com and log in i get the following message:
We're sorry. The Google Play music player is currently only available in the United States.
when I go to play.google.com i do get the option to enter the music store, but then when i try to add a free song it tells me to add a new payment method...
Then when i fill out all of the fields (apparantly i live in the US, in Somecity, Alabama) it tells me my phone number is invalid.
Adding a random american phone number (i used games workshop's customer service phone number) works, and I can now "purchase" free songs.
Next issue, when i try to buy a free song i get the message "Oops, we could not determine if this item is compatible with your device. Please try again later."
No idea how to fix that, so I'm stuck for now. music.google.com still says unsupported, and no songs can be added.

are you downloading music manager firstly? and then you do know you can not buy songs..you can only access the free ones. honestly i got it working for me otherwise i would not be posting this...
Right guys try this for me please
install hotspot shield. Once installed run this and the "shield" will go from red to green. This means it's running. Then go to music.google.com and register or login with your gmail address. Download and install google music manager and exit hotspot shield. Start uploading your music. Once done enjoy your music on any phone.
For android just google google music.apk and install and for all other phone/tablet(including wp7 and iPhone/iPad) just go to music.google.com
Hope it helps someone now
interesting. I'm at work, so not everything is possible here concerning proxy's. But once i tethered my internet through my phone I could use hotspot shield, and that just worked first try! I have downloaded the google music app on my computer!
now i'm going to download that apk and install it on my phone.

Right re done the OP and made it more simpler and easier to figure out and this now should work..Apologies for any inconvenience guys..Please if someone has tried it now let me know if it works.
I did have to find myself another google music apk, because the one included in the first post did not display my online music. For those who have the same problem; i used this one:

its not downloading..i will upload the same version as yours then i found it on my pc..Uploaded..Just uploaded the new version in the OP now.
Hi guys, just to confirm that it is working.
Although i haven't tried it with hotspot shiled. At work we are using USA proxy so i just downloaded and registered at work, got the APK installed also and uploaded 8000+ songs when i went home (it took a looong time ) now i can listen all my songs from work, home, HOX, anywhere with internet access...
I tried the engadget method, didn't work. Would just hang at the final stage of registration.
Had no probs using a program called Hide My IP. It works with the free 14 day trial. Just set IP to a US one and register for google music.
http://www.hide-my-ip.com/
I think it's been mentioned that you can update the apk in the OP. I'm currently using v4.1.513, and don't even know if that's the latest.
This does work, I've been using google music for a few months now and I'm in the uk. Just drag and drop your music into the relevant pc folder and your phone will sync it.

cheers mate all you got to do is once you download music manager the rest it is just as easy as you said...just add the folder that you want in music manager press upload and job done
hi i couldnt also get it to work on my main pc, so i thought.
i got the not avalible in your country thingy.
anyways i went upstairs to my laptop (which has unblock-us installed on the wifi router - i have two routers one with unblock-us and the other standard) and just put in the url - staight in with a bucket load of free tunes (375 tune or 24hs 38mins worth).
Im unsure if they let the original instal went though or if my unblock-us was the thing that sorted it, either way im happy!!! really nice app that works seemlessly on all my android devices.
time to free up the music from my machines now and sync them though the cloud!!.
thanks again OP., btw i had now probs with the supplied apk, streaming working a-ok here

[Q] Unable to detect country

When I start either WatchON or Samsung Hub, I get a message that says "unable to detect country" or "This device is not supported in your country" and then the app closes.
I should probably mention I live in the United States.
Strangely enough, if I log into the public wifi I can access from my residence, it is fine. Maybe it's just an issue with my regular wifi, but I wouldn't be able to test it with another private connection unless I took my tablet to a friend's house.
Is anyone else having this issue and found a solution for it?

This only happens if you are using a rom not specified for your region , but as long as you you live in the States & your Note has been released for US , this should not show up.

Considering I bought my Note at Best Buy and no one's found a way to root it yet, that can't be the stem of my problem.
Same issue here
The same thing happens to me. I'm also in the US and bought my tablet from Best Buy. It attempts to load Samsung Hub, but then stops and gives me a message that 'this service is not supported in this country'. I attempted to contact Samsung, with as low of expectations add I could muster, and they said I should go to settings, general, app manager, all apps, then force stop it, clear data and restart the Note. Didn't work for me, but luckily I didn't expect it to.
I'm in the UK, and bought my 10.1 from the US. Could this be why I can't watch HD Play Movies? Is it worth flashing the UK firmware via Odin?

I'm having the exact same issue with WatchON and Samsung Hub (Video Only - the Music, Apps, and Books work on Samsung Hub). I get the "unable to detect country" or "this device is not supported in your country" and the app closes.
I also live in the US. I just went down to the Best Buy to talk to the Samsung rep on site and she said she had never heard of it. I was glad I had screen shots to show her (didn't do much good). We powered it up and everything worked great. I got home and AGAIN it gives me the "unable to detect country". I went down to the Apartment public wifi and it works fine again.
I thought it must have something to do with settings on my Linksys wireless router. So I checked and the time setting is correct for Central Time zone. No issues there. Then I tried the Samsung Hub Video and WatchON on my Samsung S4 (with mobile data turned off, Wifi only) and they both work perfect on my home wifi. So its something with the Note 10.1 2014 tablet I guess.
Strange how it works on the public wifi at BestBuy and the Apartment but not on my home network. But yet, my Samsung S4 works fine on any network.
Still looking for a solution.

That is weird, has Samsung been able to help any more? You know, I had the same exact issue on a Note 8.0 I had, but after a FW update it finally started working okay.

No luck with support, who clearly are not up to date on the products they sell (though with the sheer amount they do, I can't blame them). After she told me try to change a setting that does not exist on the device, she recommended a factory reset. Having read some other posts about this same issue, I'm not going to waste my time with that. All I'm hoping is for a big update from Samsung or a custom ROM that can help me out.

[Q] Wifi Direct

Anyone here having problem with their wifi direct? Im using my gnote pro 12.2 to send documents and files over my g3 but it wont let me receive the files. My gnote will always have this sending failed error message and when i check what causes it to fail, i have this lg g3 file sharing not available message.
Laptop and computers are inaccessible atm, im doing a field job. Im trying to send huge files so bluetooth is not an option. My gnote doesn't have a problem sending files to other devices, i just finished transfering files to my coworkers so im sure it is my phone whose at fault.
Any help will be much appreciated. TIA.
1st Edit: Found out that i don't even have the option to send files through wifi direct even wifi direct on my g3 is turned on and connected to a device.
2nd Edit: Manage to transfer the file using google play application "Super Beam" , have to install it to both devices and should be connected to a wifi router to use wifi direct. Bit dissapointed coz its not working out of the box. Direct wifi doesnt need to have router to work.
Anyone here got the issue? Or their wifi direct is working properly? I just want to know and will help alot if will also tell what version/firmware they are using. Might try to flash other firmware to check if it will solve my concern.
Its kinda frustrsting to go outside and look for a wifi just to be able to transfer large files. Im currently using superbeam as an immediate solution.
really this is a very bad active from LG .there is no reason to remove this super important option from this super phone

I agree. I need this thing to work, it is actually frustrating me. Might be solve with just firmware update, i will also try to go back to my old firmware which is v10a, we'll see if that will solve it (ill just borrow laptop somewhere). I also try contacting lg cust service but was amazed that they don't have the handset Support department till sunday... what a bummer..
Im working in a site right now where everything have its time off. No wifi no chance to use super beam.
Contacted lg cust service again and was dissapointed. They intentionally remove wifi direct functionality to give way to their "SmartShare Beam" WHICH IS ONLY exclusive to LG devices. No chance to transfer files through wifi direct to other brand handset without using working router. Android devices now following apple's exclusiveness to their devices.
The only solution is to use SuperBeam from google market
Or to use DLNA features though can only transfer media files.
i found an altranative application that could be usefull to share files between lg g3 and other mobiles . but it should be installed at both devices ..
the app name Wi-Fi File Sender
