I'm in the UK and found an apk of Google Earth.. it works ok

It's something to do with the rom not being verified or something? It doesn't show many paid apps.
PacMan was only free for G1 users it was $9.99 for everyone else.

i can find google earth fine, i think its because my phone is unlocked and i am on o2

Is anyone else experiencing a horrible screen flicker while trying to play Pac-Man?

I tried it last week and experienced the flicker described above so I uninstalled it.
On the topic of Google Earth, I found an apk for it. It was cool, but despite being shown as a 5MB+ file it ate up 20MB+ of storage. Didn't really offer anything over the regular Map app apart from the "Wow" factor so I got rid of that too.

Guys i need help this is really weird.

Me and my friend both have a galaxy nexus. Running 100% stock 4.0.2
Same baseband same version number blah blah blah...
I had his phone earlier and noticed his music app was now called play music but mine was still just music.
I tried to search for the app on the market but it doesnt show up.
If i go on the market from a PC it shows up and says its compatible with my device.
I then noticed that my play movies was missing from my app drawer.
Again i loaded up market and there it was but it says installed!!!
I clicked on the app and it says update. I click update and it just says "error your order is being processed" and then it never updates.
I can open the app from the market but it doesnt show up on my phone at all.
It wont even show up if i go into setting>apps> and look under the all apps tab.
Can anyone help me out with this? What the hell is up with my phone???

Have you tried to clear the Google Play (Market) cache? Rebooted phone?

Yeah i cleared google play store cache and data and turned phone off for 30 minutes while i was working and its still the same.

Try getting 'market enabler' and temporarily spoofing the T-mobile network (US), then see if your able to update.

Update...
I logged onto the market through my PC and it let me install the play movies app to my device no problem.
The play music app though says installed and if I click to install again it says it will be installed but it never does.
This must be available in the UK because my friend has it on his device running exact same firmware as me...
Why the hell won't this thing install!!?!?!?!?

Google Music is not available in the UK yet. The app comes pre installed but is not available when looking at the market. If your having issues downloading or updating from the market then install it manually (apk here!)

So im supposed to have the purple headphones icon thats just called "music" right?
Not the gold headphones?
I just quizzed my friend about it to see if theres something hes not telling me and he swears hes still 100% stock and hasnt done anything to get the play music apk.
if you could just confirm that im supposed to have the purple headphones icon called music that would be great.
Thanks for replies guys really appreciated.

This Logo?
This is what the logo was until it was rebranded to Google Play Music. Which is now this logo
Both of these logos are for the same app, just different versions (with no actual feature differences).
Your friend may have had the newest version of google music pushed to his phone. This happened to me too. But don't worry, your not actually missing anything.

Yeah thats right i have the grey and orange icon ( sorry for some reason though it was purple ) and my friend has the gold icon.
LOL i have just noticed at the very bottom of the description of the app on the market it says available in the US only... Wish i read that earlier <<noob>>
I guess i just leave it then and see if it updates in its own time.
thanks for the replies you was very helpful.
Ill hit the thanks button when i get home. Im on a work computer that has 100 year old internet explorer on it so it doesnt display the page properly.

nope it's not only available in the us. I live in Germany and today I've got an update which installed play music play books and play movies. they don't work here either but I still got that update.

Thats interesting. Are you sure your not spoofing your carrier for the market? Otherwise Google might be rolling the app out outside of the states now

OK update...
The music app showed up in my market as an update just now so I have the play music version....
I still can't get the play movies to show up in the my apps part of the play store. If I search for the app manually it shows up and says installed. It just doesnt show up as installed in the my apps part.
And yeah they must be pushing the app out to other places now. I can't see how you sync though unless that's not available yet still for UK .

Are you talking about syncing your own collection via Google Music in the UK? It is possible because I've done it... and its awesome!! Just have a search on Google for 'google music uk' or something and I'm sure you'll find a tutorial. (Be warned, depending on your library size it may take a while to upload your music. Mine took about a month off and on)

I'm not too sure really. I can find it on the market so it's not a regional issue. Just find the apk online and install it manually. If you can't find it I'll be happy to upload it just let me know.

Nono,
I have the app installed no problem from the market.
The issue is if i go into the "my apps" part the app isnt listed as installed on my device.
But if i do a manual search for the app as if you was looking for something new to install it shows up in the list and says installed.
Im wondering why its not showing in the "my apps" part of the market?

Oh right. Well I just had a look on mine and I can't find it either. It could either be a bug within the market or a feature that google added (for some unthinkable reason). But I'd guess everyone has this issue. Nothing to worry about though really

[Q] Taking Screenshots on the OUYA

Has anyone found (or created an app) to take screenshots on the OUYA?
I know there's the ADB method, but I really just want an internal application of button setup of some sort; the ADB over WiFi is semi buggy for me and I don't want to disconnect my OUYA from the TV to attach to the computer (then I can't see the screen of course...).
Can anyone think of a method without ADB?

You may try and side load airdroid on to the ouya. The app has a screen capture option along with remove control of your android device from a web browser.

Ouya has multitasking disabled. When an app isnt running in the foreground, it is killed. Its a performance thing to make games run more bettererer. I dont think any screenshot app would work out well with this option turned on.

This is what I do. AirDroid was the first app I installed and it's the only app you need to sideload, manage, and take screen shots of the OUYA.

I thought this originally, too, but I've found it doesn't effect the performance too much. I've had multitasking on for 3-4 daays now (I use my OUYA every day for hours) and have seen very little difference.

As a side question, were do most people put their sideloaded APKs? So far all I have done is clickrd on them within my Box.com app and they just start.

I use the install directly feature of AirDroid, the apk is only temporarily transferred to the OUYA and then deleted after install, like as if you were downloading it from the Play store or Amazon market.

I just downloaded the newest version and then sideloaded it to my OUYA. It's up working now, though the WiFi setup requirement is redundant when it's on the LAN...

yeah but this isn't uncommon... some apps look for either wifi or mobile network and just won't work on the OUYA without Wifi. It's one of those things that dev's of those apps probably never thought of a Android device running with ethernet.

It doesn't really at all honestly; though I have mine to only allow 3 background processes at 1 time. The only effect it has is on xbmc if you're watching 1080P with a heavy skin.
[Update] There is no screenshot app that I have found that works for OUYA (rooted, busybox, SuperSU); I resorted to adb over the network with https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wmendez.adbovertcp and manually triggered screencaps from my tablet.

By "Heavy" I mean a big resource intensive skin. In the wiki I explained the skins that you should use with the OUYA, I tested as many skins as I could find and those were the only ones that are "Light" skins that produce little or no lag.

I didn't start it, Ned did, but there wasn't much there; him and I have been working to make it complete. And at the moment yeah it is still recommended ATM. All nightly builds after Aug 2 all have the libstagefright built-in and should work, but I haven't tested and haven't heard anything. I'll be testing builds next week though.

[REQ] WWE Network Fire TV apk

Hey guys, I am looking for the wwe network apk directly from the fire tv, I have a tronsmart s89-h android box, and cannot get the standard wwe network app to work, I am hoping that this will solve all my issues but i cannot find a way to get the apk anywhere. I would appreciate your help! thanks!

Sorry, I'm just heading off to work, but when I get home, I can pull the apk for you.
Let me guess. The issue you're having is with GPS, right? That was the problem I had before the FireTV version came out

That would be amazing! and Yes i Believe the issue has come down to the device not having any kind of gps, Im assuming the fire tv does not have that check, plus it is much more suited for a tv, (landscape mode!)

Alright, as promised, here's the apk. Current version is 1.0.1
It's basically the same UI as the PS3 app, but I'll admit, it's a little buggy at times.
In any case, enjoy! http://www39.zippyshare.com/v/84400404/file.html
Edit: Well I tried this on a couple of my other devices, and it turns out this has a security check for the Amazon App Store, and you also need to have the app registered to your Amazon account. This may or may not work out for you afterall. I tried, man...

So i was able to purchase/own the wwe network app from the online amazon store despite me not technically having a device it would run on, this box can also install the amazon app store no problem, though it obviously only sees the android wwe network app and not this one.. GOOD NEWS is that the app is working on my account! its def a bit wonky but i am hoping it is some stuff i can fix with some DPI xposed changes or something of the like, thanks so much very appreciated, and def works!!

Well, After some playing around, it isnt exactly usable. First off on the menu there is a about an inch or 2 white space on the bottom and right side of screen, i believe this can be fixed with some kind of dpi mod, but not totally sure. secondly, only the home screen loads images, ie, whats playing now, whats coming up, if u go to pay per views, it is just empty boxes with borders, none of the images load until you get to the actual video description, but you really have no idea what you are clicking. Lastly when playing a video (which does indeed work) with my tronsmart tsm-01 air mote i could not do anything but go back, i could not pause i could not get the menu up. i could not fast forward etc. only could go back. So while it is useable to watch summerslam, with no dvr feature thats really about it. maybe the dpi issue will fix everything who knows, I only played around with it for about 15 minutes as i headed to work, but its hardly worth it right now.
As far as getting the amazon app store. probably used more effort typing in this forum than to just simply google 'android app store' : http://bit.ly/uC6tic

Yes, you can essentially mirror any app from your PC, BUT, the lag is horrible, AND I just noticed today after wondering for the last two days what was wrong with my laptop that the PC app(not in use) was use 30% cpu doing absolutely nothing. I have removed both Microsoft Remoted Desktop for Android has better performance. Maybe check it out again in a few months

It's alright, but you gotta be on Windows 10-- probably why it lags so bad? And tbh, I've only tried to run Magic the Gathering Arena </plug> but I do have to say this in it's defense.... using the stylus to play MtGA has been the best remote access app I've tried (for me anyway-- better than WRD, Remotr, TeamViewer, etc etc).

Anyone got 1.0.4 apk?
