[SOLUTION] Spotify in ICS port not working - Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0

I installed the ICS Port for YP-G70 INT today and it works really well but for one thing.
Spotify would FC on start every time. I found that downloading and installing Spotify 0.4.11.28 did the trick.
Hope this can help someone.
Edit:
I actually found it on XDA but it took me som time. Here is a link to the original post.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22089044&postcount=9
Edit2:
Efter sniffing aroud on the swedish Android forum Swedroid i managed to get the latest version of spotify working in ICS.
Uninstall spotify and then delete all traces of it using a file explorer. Reinstall, and voila. Works like a charm.

Netflix

Sorry if this is already reported, but Netflix has upgraded the client and it is no longer available in the market. Is there a workatound?
Sent from my NookColor using Tapatalk
Netflix apparently removed the app because of the issues some people are having with it. Since its a free app, you can probably easily find the older .apk file by googling.
I just found it using the Galaxy tab and the htc buildprops.
The galaxy had video but chipmunks.
The htc worked, but I had no video until moving the app toSD.
I am running MN.
Good luck.

Here's the thread with the latest updated Netflix apk.

Just installed, chipmunk because of the accelerated video. So I'd suggest try editing your build.prop as suggested above to see if it helps.

I keep getting the following message:
"It looks like Netflix has been deactivated on this device. It could be an issue with your account or perhaps your device was deactivated on nexflix.com (2004)"
Is this a new issue? (or did my spouse forget to pay the bill? )

I had netflix working on Phiremod 6.2 with the "hack".
I got the same message that you're reporting when I tried to upgrade to Phiremod 6.3, but I didn't do a clean install.
I did a complete wipe of the nook and started a fresh install of Phiremod 6.3. I then downloaded Netflix from the market and it worked again.
Idiot me. Once you mentioned datawipe it hit me and I went to manage applications, wiped data and voila, netflix works
Thank you for the nudge in the right direction.
I did have to do the build edit to rid myself of the chipmunks, but I just finished watching a movie before bed

Netflix Update Kills Video

I wouldn't advise updating the Netflix app. I did yesterday and now I only get audio and no video. I'm running CM7 beta. Can anyone using stock or another rom confirm if yours is working. I saw in the app market comments that others were having problems as well but haven't seen anything over here.
I have stock gingerbread and I don't have any video issues. Although I was getting like a fast forward audio/video thing when I started a movie. It corrected after I stopped and started it. I like it better because they fixed the orientation situation.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Well I guess it's a cm7 problem like the HBO to Go app. Damn, I love the rom but this needs to be fixed. Hopefully I can flash a backup to get it going again.
yup i had the same issues. i just re-installed a backup of 1.4.0 and it works fine again.
Well, I did a cwm restore from a backup I did 2 days ago. I opened netflix and gave me an error about my device being deactivated, I just clicked through the ok's and it logged me out. I logged back in and all was well. Also, after reviewing the bug reports on CM7, I came across an interesting fix that may work for plex, I'll post the link below in the hopes that it will help somebody.

Google Currents

Anyone have luck installing the latest out of Mountain View? Seems like the NT would be a great platform for it. When I try to load the apk it stops mid-installation with "App not installed."
Sent from my BNTV250 using Tapatalk
Works fine for me. I installed it on a CM7 HP Touchpad, and backed up the apk to install on the NT.
btw, my NT is rooted.
Edit: here's the apk if anyone wants to try it.
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=7LU54DRN
Strange, I'm rooted too, tried again with your apk and got the same result.
Kindle Fire people are having issue installing too, something about missing some google framework files. maybe their procedure could help:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1382925
Not working for me either.
Unrooted, been sideloading other google apps with minimal issue. Downloading from megaupload, the dowload bar pops up and i get the message "Waiting for data connection," but nothing. Megaupload has given me trouble before.
---------- Post added at 01:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:12 AM ----------
So it finally went through, but now it gives me a parse error.
Good find -- I followed the whole procedure and it worked.
My first impression, though, is that the app doesn't format text well on the NT compared to my phone. Medium text size is too big and the margins are huge; and small text size splits the text into two columns, which looks ridiculous and is difficult to read (only 3-5 words across a column). Hope google fixes that in the next release.

Thanks for the tip. I installed on my Iconia A500, backed up to SD, etc. and got it installed on the Nook Tab.
Cool app.
Works great on my nook tablet had to use an apk from my evo (because incompatible with your device b.s.). I use es explorer to tranfer apks to my lan network then download them on my nook. Works perfect syncs my google reader feeds automaticaly looks really nice.
Working beautifully on my NT, thanks google for making yet another beautiful app

Sirius XM 2.0 App Apk

Would someone mind posting their US Sirius 2.0 app that was just released?

Could someone post their apk from their /system dir?
Thanks in advance.

SiriusXM App 2.0 Crashing Droid Incredible MIUI 2.3.2
I downloaded the new app right away, hoping it would be better than the old piece of junk I've been running. Of course, every time I click on a channel I get an FC. It's unusable. I've had to roll back to 1.6.2. Anyone having similiar probs? Anyone have it working?
I'm also running Incredikernel, and I have apps / davik running on sd-ext. I suppose that might be causing the problem, but all other apps are working great.
(Tried installing Flash. No change.)
And there is already a new update: version 2.0.0.62 Could someone post the new version? Thanks.
Nobody?
Here's the new version
Hmmm. As a newer member I'm not allowed to post links.
So... it's at megashare /4179513.
Interesting. I flashing an older ROM and the App worked fine. Backed up the app and data, and then flashed MIUI. Restored data and app, but it still crashes.
Long story short, I have found a way to get it to work. You just can't tap directly on a station. But, if you select a PROGRAM, it works. I discovered this because I created an alert for a radio show, and when I started the new app it asked me if I wanted to listen to it immediately. I chose YES and it worked. Further testing revealed that this is easy to duplicate, and the solution does actually work. You just can't tap directly on a station. You have to select the program.
The app is still a memory hog and I'm still losing connection frequently... but maybe not as much as before. I hope this helps someone!
Thanks!
I don't have the problems all you guys have running ics 4.04 , it is however buggy when I don't exit it and receive or make a phone call.

Nexus Q Working on ICS

I have some of this posted in the Q&A but thought it deserved a thread here as I now have it working with Google Play Music on ICS. I have not been able to get the new YouTube application ported over to ICS yes but I'm still working on it.I could probably get this working on Gingerbread by changing the manifest again but I no longer have a GB device so if someone really wants it let me know.
What you need:
The modified NexusQ.apk file from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28636772&postcount=23
The new 4.3.605 Google Play Music apk which is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19423409&postcount=1
A Nexus Q and WiFi network.
A device running ICS. I used my Bionic running leaked ICS but I did have to root in order to install the new 605 Play Music application.
Instructions:
Install the new (4.3.605) Google Play Music application from Steve0007's posted linked above. If you get an "Existing package with same signature.." error you will need to do the following (this is what worked on my Bionic):
WARNING: ROOTING YOUR DEVICE AND CHANGING THE SYSTEM FILES CAN CAUSE BAD THINGS TO HAPPEN, PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
Root your device (I used this method on my Bionic: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...gh-releases-ics-leak-root-exploit-bionic.html.) Install Root Explorer from the market and delete the existing com.google.android.play.music.xxx.xx.xxx apk from /system/app. Reboot device. Copy 605 apk to device and install.
END SCARY ROOT WARNING
Install the modified NexusQ.apk, plug in the Q, turn on Bluetooth on your device (it will prompt you to if you don't) and get connected! I had to go through the process several times before it successfully paired up but from what I've read the same is true on JB devices as well. If you need to wipe out the Q you do so by unplugging it, plugging it back in and as soon as the blue ring starts place your palm over the single LED on the top until the ring goes from flashing red to swirling purple. This will factory reset the device. Since getting both my Bionic and Xoom paired it's worked well.
Enjoy until the official ICS and below apps drop from Google.
If anyone is successful at getting the JB YouTube application working on ICS please let me know.
Thanks to everyone that helped me get this working!
Thanks a ton!!! I've added a link to this in my roll-up (here) in the general thread so others will find it. I'm now able to use my Nexus Q, thanks again!
Eventually I'll start learning to do some dev work :/
I followed your directions but I still cannot stream anything, I'm not sure what I am doing wrong. I was able to get the Nexus Q 8 Ball easter Egg to work.
What is your current status? Do you have the 4.3.605 music player installed? If so you should have the little "beam" icon on the top right when playing music and tapping that should make the Q almost instantly start streaming that song.

Did you read the part about needing to manually remove the old play music application via root explorer (or a simple uninstall if allowed)? Have you tried either?

Yes I read that but the old play music was not in the system\apps directory but it was still installed so not sure. I force stopped it and uninstalled it and reinstalled it and still would not let me install the one listed.
Hmmm, I think that's two of you with problems installing on CM9. I don't have anything running that ROM (and you can probably tell I'm already pretty much at the limits of my skills) but perhaps it is installed differently in that ROM. Unfortunately I don't think I can help you with this one.

Just though I should specify what rom I had success with. I copied the app to /system/app folder and changed the permissions. I did NOT have google music previously installed. When I ran the app to install it said install failed. I then installed the NexusQ app directly from my SD card, which installed no problems. I did not try to run the NexusQ app and rebooted the phone. Once rebooted i turned on my WIFI and bluetooth and launched the NexusQ app and rebooted the Nexus Q. The app paired up with the Q no problem. I was then able to run Google Music app and play to the Q with no issues. *NOTE* When i walked out of the house (i did not manually disconnect the wifi or bluetooth, just hit the stop play music button and turned off the TV and receiver) and came back later, turned the TV and receiver back on, the visualizations or music track would not show at all. Just the NexusQ home screen. I rebooted the Q and everything is working fine again.
No, youtube does not work (which I think is posted an original post somewheres). It seems that a ported app will be needed to push youtube videos to the Q. I cannot test Google movies/TV as I dont own any.
I've tried exactly this on my HTC One S running ICS (albeit with HTC Sense) and can't get it to stream to the Q.
Everything installs fine (if I move it to /system/apps and change the permissions as mentioned) but I see no option in the Play Music app to stream to the Q.
Additionally, the new Play Music app looks it has lost quite a bit of functionality to the previous version - perhaps indicating that the installation went badly? For instance, there are much fewer options on the settings page and there's no option to choose or configure my Google account anywhere.
bobukcat - is this the case for you?

Yes that worked for me!
It still took a bunch of tries to get it to do anything though.
For a long time, and several reboots, the Q didn't show up in the list of devices in Play Music...
No idea what I did, but all of a sudden it showed up.
Volume control from the phone still doesn't work, and YouTube/Videos don't work either.
At least now I can enjoy it a bit until they release the real apps.
Thanks a ton for all the pointers and packages!
What order did you install the packages? Play Music first and then the Q app? Or the other way around?

The Q app first.
When the Q finally showed up in the new Play Music app, it was after turning wifi off/on a few times ... don't know if that's what finally did it though.

No, my play music application has all the previous functionality and even more options in Settings, including Nexus Q settings. Did you install the Q application first? I don't know why this would matter but that is what I did.
Did you just move the new play music apk to the /system/app location or did you actually install it from application manager in Astro or other file manager? I don't know that just moving the apk to that folder will work (I don't think I even tried that) so you may have to delete the old one, reboot and then install the new one from the apk. Please try that and let us know if it works.

No idea what I did, but all of a sudden it showed up.
Volume control from the phone still doesn't work, and YouTube/Videos don't work either.
At least now I can enjoy it a bit until they release the real apps.
Thanks a ton for all the pointers and packages!

Yeah, I've tried to rebuild the YouTube application from JB with a new manifest multiple times but I still can't get it to work right, I did finally get it to install but it just constantly FCs and never really runs. Clearly someone much more skilled than I (which wouldn't take much) at modifying apks would need to look into this or we just wait for the official app from Google to drop.
Strange that the volume control from your phone doesn't work, as long as I'm in the Play Music application it works fine on both my Bionic and Xoom.
As reported in the OP I too had lots of errors and force closes, etc. when trying to get this to run the first time but from what I've read that happens on JB devices too and in fact I had a few on my Xoom running TeamEOS nightlies.
