When I searched through my installed apps on my M8, HTC Dot View was nowhere to be found. Instead, it is listed as Dotmatrix. I wanted to install the HTC Dot View app from the Play Store so that I can get updates as they come available. When I searched for the "HTC Dot View" app in the Play Store, I get "your device isn't compatible with this version". I have a Canadian Rogers HTC M8 that I've unlocked. It is NOT rooted. Can someone shed some light on this issue for me?

Have you tried this method?
Go to the google play store through your browser to this link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.htc.dotmatrix
Then choose install, it should push the app to your device. The last update was May 7th.

I've pulled and attached the apk file for the Orange Quick Tap application. Unfortunately, I've only been able to get it to install on Galaxy S3s. If anyone is skilled enough to get it to install on a Galaxy Nexus (I think there are device checks in the apk?), please have a go.
Almost 30 of you have downloaded this, yet not a single comment? Come on!
Hi,
I installed it on my htc one x but it needs a quicktap sim, I'm going to order one and let you guys know what it says
Can't seem to get it installed on my S3. Moved it to system/app changed permissions but wouldn't install. Rebooted and same story.
That helps. I think that suggests that this apk doesn't actually have a device check. The reason why it's not installing on my Galaxy Nexus is probably due to a missing dependency, which I believe to be the Open Mobile API.
The Open Mobile API is used by many manufacturers to enable the use of special SIM cards as an NFC secure element for payments and other things. Google have not included this API in stock Android, as they want to limit Nexus devices to just the embedded secure element. Compare that to the Galaxy S3, which is confirmed to be able to use the MicroSD, SIM and its embedded secure element.
To test this, could people with any stock software NFC-enabled Samsung (non-Nexus), HTC or Sony device try to install the apk? I'd expect it to install on any ISIS-certified phone for example. And then to confirm that the API is the issue, could someone who has installed an AOSP stock ROM (which shouldn't support the open mobile API) onto their GS3, One X or Xperia S try to install the Quick Tap apk? If I'm right, it won't install on those ROMs.

What ROM are you running on your S3?
Right rang up orange and they are not giving put nfc sim cards unless you are a new or upgrading costumer
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Installs fine on stock unbranded SIII.
When ran, says checking for services
Then says "Sorry, you need a quick tap sim card in order to use the quick tap wallet" with customer service numbers to call 150 PAYM/450 PAYG
Alright, thanks. Now we need someone with a STOCK (no TouchWiz) AOSP CUSTOM ROM, e.g. CM9/CM10 on a SIII, One X or Xperia S to see what happens.
Rooted HTC One X with ARHD. Installs with no issue but falls over at the Sim card required stage. I'm going to give Orange a call and see what they say.

Unfortunately ARHD is based on the stock HTC ROM. Does anyone have one of the phones I've listed above, but running CM9 or CM10?
I tried to install it on my rooted GNex with stock 4.1.1 JB.
Put it into the download folder then went to install it it and it just says "app not installed"
Can someone tell me why it wont install, what the problem is?

I've already explained why it won't install. Stock Android doesn't have some components that this application requires for communication with the SIM. Furthermore, it's very possible that this application will never work with the Galaxy Nexus, as Google might have physically removed the connection between the SIM and the NFC controller - forcing Nexus users to be limited to only Google Wallet. Many people don't realise that Google are actually quite anti-competitive.
Guess I better get a Galaxy S3 LTE then.
I have a nfc sim card from starhub. Dk if it will work

It won't install because it's a system app. Push it to /system/app instead.

That's not the issue. I've already mentioned twice that stock Android does not contain the dependencies that this application requires; that's why it won't install.
I understand that this orange app installs a barclays app - can you post the apk for this?

I don't have an S3, so I can't install this in the first place. Your signature lists you as owning an S3, so why don't you install it?

dont open app in Market if you have installed patched version... you will awlays get update notifications and you cant update patched app via Marketplace
to rid update notification, uninstall and deploy app again
or
use XAPDeployX and make update with xap file...
so what exactly should I do, I dont have deployed apps right now but let's say this
I unlocked my phone (register) with the SDK (dev account) and I deploy let's say Cut the Rope using SDK, even I do not open the marketplace after several hours it shows that there is a new update
dont use SDK.. use XAPDeployX....

Did you download XAP directly from windowsphone.com? In this case the updates should work fine. Cracked Apps however won't be able to update. If you want to hide the updates, I think you should be able to change the GUID of the App I've never tried this, though.

I got an HTC One X bootleg from China and the google play apk I installed does not work at all. I understand, I need to root it so I can install a modified version of google play. I've tried every way possible to root it using bin4ry, gingerbreak, doomlord and superoneclick to no avail.
All I wanted was to make google play work that's it. Is there anybody who can extend help? Thanks in advance...

Do you have your bootloader unlocked?
Do you have your Google account activated?
Are you 100% positive that your One X is genuine?
Which G Play are you trying to install? How re you trying to do that?
Please provide some additional info.

I don't know anything about bootloader. Sorry.
I do know I have a valid google account.
No, I was fully aware that my device is just a clone.
I downloaded the latest version of google play apk. I downloaded it to my sd card then installed it manually.
Hold volume down and power to get to bootloader. Take a pic of it, then select recovery, take a pic of that too.

I have the same variant but with Comcast mobile and used ADB and an app called app inspector. You need a PC to use ADB. App inspector tells you the name of the system name of the app then you can uninstall it. Search for removing apps with ADB. I removed all Google stuff and apps I didn't want. I'm not rooted and my A50 works fine. I do have issues with Samsung browser changing my home page to Google default but it did that from day 1. How this helps if you want to private message me I'll help you further.
