Hey,
Im trying to get snapchat for my nexus 7, but the play store says my device isnt compatible.
I managed o get whatsapp on my nexus 7 without rooting it and i should be able to do the same for snapchat,
but i cant find the apk for it anywhere. Does anyone have the apk or another workaround?
---------------------
Hey i managed to download the apk via real apk leecher, but it keeps crashing. I used appguard to stop it from
reading my id so it doesnt realise my nexus 7 isnt on the non compatible list, but all i get after i try to log in is a white screen
and a force quit
Yeah I'm having the same problem. The snap chat blog says it should work for all android devices 2.2. and up. I guess not.
after their latest update there is no more suport for my htc wildfire somehow so now i cant even leach the latest apk that supossedly fixed the white screen bug. Can anyone upload the 1.3 snapchat apk?
anyone have a chance to see if the update they just rolled out stops it from crashing on the 7? I can't find an apk yet
I just found version 1.6 (play store says newest is 1.5 )
But same thing... just crashes. And 1.5 isn't compatible with ANY of the devices I own (all 2.3+)
Sorry to bump an old thread, but is there a way I can get Snapchat to work on my Nexus 7? Thanks

I think the reason why snapchat doesn't work is because the N7 has no rear-facing camera. Snapchat has the feature where you choose if you wanna use the rear or the front camera, and since the rear-camera isn't available, the app crashes.
Sideloaded Snapchat 2.1 and the camera now works!
When you take a picture you have to hold the nexus 7 so the camera is on the bottom. Otherwise the snap would be upside down.
Also the video doesn't work.

What is sideloading? Is that just downloading an apk and clicking install from my file explorer? Or is there more to it? Thanks

Snapchat 3.0.1
Hello everyone,
A new snapchat update is out (3.0.1) and I decided to sideload the new apk. It works!! You can take pictures regularly so you don't have to turn the nexus 7 upside down. :victory::victory: Recording videos also works.
For people who don't know how to install Snapchat apk on to your Nexus 7 , here are some instructions.
Step 1: Settings
First, you need to go to settings on your nexus 7. Click on the security tab and make sure the Unknown sources check box is checked. This allows the apk to be installed.
Step 2: File Manager/Explorer
Next you need to download a file manager or a file explorer to install the apk from the Google Play store. I used File Manager HD to install the Snapchat apk but you can use other apps.
Step 3: Download Snapchat
Now you need to download the Snapchat apk. You can download it from here: View attachment Snapchat_3_0_1.apk Once you click the link on your nexus 7, it will automatically download the apk.
Step 4: Installing Snapchat
After the apk is download, open your file manager/explorer and find the downloads folder.
Then click on Snapchat_3_0_1.apk. It should then start installing the apk.
Once it's completed, you can open it to start Snapchat.
I hope this helps others out. If you need help, just ask.
snapchat 3.0.1
The new update snapchat 3.0.1 works perfectly on the nexus 7. You no longer have to hold your camera upsidedown and you can take video without it crashing now.

Was able to get my Dinc to run the Netflix app with no issues. Pushed it over to my A101 and no dice. Anyone mess with this yet?
Here's a link to the APK in my dropbox.

I have Netflix working.
I have UrukDroid-1.1beta2 installed on my Archos 70 but should work with other ROMs if you are rooted.
You just need to open & edit /system/build.prop
I used Root Explore but any other root file editor should work.
Change ro.product.brand=archos
to
ro.product.brand=HTC Vision
and
ro.product.manufacturer=archos
to
ro.product.manufacturer=HTC
reboot
Worked for me.

I can confirm this working on A70S running Uruk 1.0 from internal memory. To help others, I used a terminal to gain root ($su), made a backup copy of the build.prop (#cp /system/build.prop /system/build.prop.bak), then copied the build.prop to / and changed the name to build.txt (#cp /system/build.prop /build.txt). Then I changed the permissions to make it writable (#chmod 666 /build.txt). Personally, I hate vi. So, I used astro file manager to open the build.txt file and edit it with the above changes. Then back in terminal copied the edited build.txt back to where it belongs (#cp /build.txt /system/build.prop) and restored the proper settings (#chmod 644 /system/build.prop) and then rebooted via holding down power and selecting reboot.
I only played with the streaming for a few minutes before work this morning. Seems decent. I am really looking forward to getting into it tonight. Thanks for the file changes!
UPDATE: I got a chance to compare the netflix app on my A70S compared to endgadget's walkthrough video on the Nexus S. The app runs, in my opinion, a little slow both loading the first time and in changing tabs or viewing information on a movie/show. But when I loaded my app while watching the Nexus S on the video load, they took about the same time. Same thing with everything else - very comparable times to switch between tabs or get information on a movie/show. As far as quality goes, I have not watched any video completely start to finish yet. But I have noticed some variance in quality. An episode from Season 2 of the Office looked a little pixelated but Austin Powers Goldmember looked nice. Both we very watchable though. The initial buffer took a few seconds longer than I would like but when skipping forward in the video, the video played rather quickly. Overall I am happy the app is out, and will use the crap out of it, but there is definitely some room for improvement.
Do we absolutely need root to edit the build.prop?
I know I can get the file to my PC to edit. I don't know if I need root to get it back...and I did the firmware update.

Yeah I was going to do all of that until I found this thread. I really didn't want to attempt root until warranty expired. I was practically doing cartwheels when the netflix-devicecheck-disabled.apk file worked.
The device check disabled version worked great for me. Combine that with 4G LTE tethering from my thunderbolt and I got some good shizz. Thanks for the tip guys!

The Ice cream Sandwich has a really mind blowing UI, Google tried to modify almost all system apps.
Here is some original app collections, which really works for Gingerbread & other older versions.
The Apps Collections
Android Market 3.2.0
Google Music 4.0.1
Google Maps 5.11.0
Street View 1.7.0.4
Google+ 2.0.0
Just install like a normal app. Will be updated as soon as more apps available.
If anyone has problems installing market 3.2.0, try this post. This may be helpful to you.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1297040
Note : There may be updated versions of the apps listed, but this is just a collection from Galaxy Nexus.
Any hope for the launcher? Or the browser? Or Somthing else interesting....
are those install APK, or just copy and replace over old APK ?
Market and Music installed ok.
Not having any luck with Maps and Street View. Do they even have any significant changes?
Maps is not 5.10.2
It's the ownhere/Brut.all 5.10.1 mod of the maps...

Thx. But the market not works on HTC Wildfire S.
Start the install and then:
"application not installed"
What is the problem ? :|
(This works only whit root -ed phones? )
Thanks you very much !
But I have the same prob than zoltank but for Music, Market et Google+ =/
It's not the first time i install the three but here, everytime "app not installed" and my phone is rooted so it's not that =/
Any ideas ?
try uninstalling the old apps before installing the new ones
Too bad no =(
Uninstall the Market, i came back on the 1st version on the Nexus but it's the same, now the update roll on and i'm again with 3.1.5.
No prob, that will coming in time =)
Thank you !
i was able to install everything except Market 3.2
i uninstalled the old one and wiped cache, kelvin, etc...
any ideas?
solved
rebooted the phone
then i was able to install
now that it's installed, i get Force Close every time i try to install something from market
going back to 3.1.5
Hi, if you are having trouble installing the market try this. Its what I did to get it working on my o2x
You will need root explorer

Market doesn't work on Galaxy S Plus
Thanks for these
Market works perfectly on rooted Flyer. The tiles fill out the screen nicer than 3.1.5. No force close issues. On edit: it drops an error when trying to get a non-free app....
G+ breaks the People (htccontacts.apk) app.
Music installs, but I use the HTC one so not much testing after install.
Maps, untested.
Street view, untested.
---
On edit: Maps installs and works. Street view errors on install.
G+ app works perfectly on stock N1 on 2.3.6, no adverse side effects. Been using it since it originally leaked a couple-ish weeks ago.

My guess is the ones already in the first post are the only ones that are gonna install on gingerbread. You can take all the apps from the galaxy nexus dump, put them in a folder on your sdcard, and browse to it with root explorer. you'll see the only ones that have none default icons are the ones in the first post. the ones with app icons are the only ones that actually install. all other give parsing errors since you need ICS to install them.

Recently Facebook Home has just came out and I've been searching for it for our Galaxy W, unfortunately, it's not available for our phone. It's because they block our device, allowing only S3 or some popular phones to get the update only. Some people were also facing country restrictions issues, our even version incompatible.
So I've found a post by Modaco, and these are the ways you can get it working on our phone, or maybe other device:
Uninstall all you facebook apps, and download these 3 files, install it and you're done!
Main app:
http://loadbalancing.modaco.com/download.php?file=com.facebook.katana.modaco.apk
Facebook Home Launcher:
http://loadbalancing.modaco.com/download.php?file=com.facebook.orca.modaco.apk
Facebook Messenger with chat heads;
http://loadbalancing.modaco.com/download.php?file=com.facebook.home.modaco.apk
All files above are patched, so you can't update it from play store, unless the official app is available for our device
Credits to: Modaco, http://www.modaco.com/topic/361924-facebook-home-download-including-patched-apk-version/
I've attached the screencaps on my Galaxy W
Notice: The app could be laggy, this is because Facebook has not make it stable yet and it's one of the reason they don't allow us to install it on Playstore

I think you should reinstall it, it's a little buggy because it's still the first version
I heard Facebook home will take place on play store for every devices.
Just tried installing the latest Google search from Aptoide, however it crashes everytime and keeps on displaying the crash message.
Looks like Google is bringing the new lollipop style to the launcher by updating the Google search app.
Try yourself by installing the Aptoide app and updating the Google search app or getting hold of an apk from somewhere.
See screens hots.

If you are rooted then you can copy across the missing libs which are needed as per the guide below from androidpolice however if you are not rooted then you will have to wait until google release a kitkat compatible version.

Sorry, but I had to close this thread because aptoide and the aptoide app are considered warez by xda. xda takes warez pretty seriously, so we don't even allow troubleshooting or any other kind of support for warez or apps that come from
distributors of warez. There are legitimate places to get google apps for example: http://www.apkmirror.com/
Hi there
I see that inside the secure folder there is an option to create clone of an app and then use it once you enter the secure folder.
I wonder if it is possible to create an app clone outside of secure folder so that I can use both my youtube accounts.
The last phone I used (Asus Zenfone 5z) allowed the same.
Appreciate your time.

It was a bug, installed the latest Vanced App and it worked.
However the website does not clarify which of the release is the fixed one so had to check by clicking on each release.
