[Q] Chrome to Phone app missing from Market

I really wanted to try the Google Chrome to Phone app, but I couldn't find it on the Android Market (I'm in Hong Kong). I even clicked on some QR links to the app, but again, it couldn't be found on the Market.
Anybody else have this issue? Is it not available for the DHD or in Hong Kong?

Yes i have the same problem. I had to download the application from another place found-it on a blog ...

@liniutze- could you message me with where you managed to find the app?
thx!

You need to download addition the browser on a PC

is the universal search omitted in the OTA update of 4.1?

hi guys,
i just want to clarify something base on this article:
http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105...oftware-patch-to-avoid-galaxy-nexus-sales-ban
Did Google patch up and remove the universal search feature on the newly OTA update of Android Jellybean 4.1.1 for Galaxy Nexus HSPA+ version ?

As has already been covered in a few articles, no it was not removed.
View attachment 1190365
Surely this infringing part will be removed with a simple update in the Play Store to the Search app.

Google Now on 4.1.1 doesn't send text message
Although Google has stated that the new 4.1.1 update for jellybean didn't affect universal search on our phones, can anyone verify that they can send text messages via Google Now?
I launch Google Now
I say, "Send text to (name), has Google Now been dumbed down?"
Google Now then lists the recipients name and a button to 'Send Message' appears.
I press the 'Send Message' button but nothing happens.
Normally, it would launch Messaging and send the text for me. Can someone verify that this command stills works? Thanks.

[Q] Multiple app queries for M Dual

Have some queries on multiple apps & would appreciate your inputs guys (M Dual) :
1) The pre-installed application 'appXtra shows 'This service is not available for your location' (For India) - don't understand why it would be preinstalled in Indian model if service is unavailable for India.
2) Bigflix - I needed to know before registering, is there any specific offer from Sony (like how Nokia offers for their handsets as a bundle) if we register from within the phone app.
3) Haven't yet activated McAfee Security - Is this Antivirus & Security as there seems to be no standalone McAfee Security app on Play. Also is this trial version or full featured premium version offered to Xperia buyers?
4) Sony Music (powered by Infibeam), have not yet registered and once again same question for this as well, is there any specific offer from Sony (like how Nokia offers for their handsets as a bundle) if we register from within the phone app.
5) Xperia Link when opened says 'Start the Xperia Link application on your PC', where do we download this from as searched everywhere & did not find it
6) The app 'Bump' simply force closes at each and every instance when trying to run it - anyone else facing this issue?

Appreciate your help but what you are mentioning is for Myxperia which I am aware of but my question is for Xperia Link app as found in the app drawer. Looking forward to some inputs on the other points from anyone who can chime in.

Text Messages can't be forwarded

I had been using samsung handsets upto note 8 but this time on new s9 in which there is a problem in text message forwarding as only two options are available on long pressing it as either "delete" or "details" ...
plz any solution to it....

has to be an issue with yours. Mine, long pressing gives me the following options, Delete, Copy Text, Forward, Share, Star Message, Send to Reminder, Copy to SIM Card, and View Message Details.

Yeah..me having same issue
If message is from banking or other commercial site..it has no option of copying. E.g. messages from AD-HDFC etc.
Messages from regular number has all options
This is annoying
How to get over this
SAMSUNG is screwing things .

yeah group messages don’t have all options and it is very irritating.....

I downloaded from apk mirror. I'm rooted so I updated myself.

When I try to forward a message to additional members in a group the phone doesn't allow me to choose from the group. What gives? It only shows contacts and not the group option. I have a group with 60 people.

even from apps manager from setting I can stop it from running but am unable to uninstall it
can any one who has faced this issue help me out ?

Google play store was not visible on my AL00 at first. I went to app gallery and it had an option to update it.(not recommended ) it said. After I updated it showed up on the phone.

Just update it on the app gallery all Google stuff are built in you only have to download google calendar sync

I had faced the same problem
I had the same problem in my Huawei Mate 20 Chinese Phone. Solved it by changing the language to Chinese through App Gallery and thereafter searching for and installing Google Play. It really worked fine.

How were you able to do the search in the App Gallery if the language was Chinese?

mate 20x 8gb, 256gb evr-l00
I have the evr-l00...
followed this instruction, changed the app gallery to china (region), even if the whole thing is in chinese, type in "Google Play" in the search box on the top of the page, hit enter, and there came Google Play Store.
Installed it... removed most of the chinese apps, installed all useful google apps, and that's it, viola!
still working perfectly up to now.
my only gripe with the chinese version (when used elsewhere, except china)... is that u will not be able to fully configure the mobile data limits as the 'region' and 'network providers' are all in chinese, for China-based networks.
