Google Authenticator fails - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

When I try to use Google Authenticator it immediately crashes on hitting the Setup button. This happens on both my C6833 Z Ultra and also my Xperia Tablet Z. I've tried both 4.2.2 and 4.3, both fail on both devices. It worked fine on my old Samsung Galaxy S2.
Sony of course was no help.
Could someone try loading it off the market and let me know if it does the same thing? Someone running Cyanogenmod would be nice also.
Thanks,
Marc

Samsung Fascinate Facebook home?

Okay, so i was browsing the google play store on my computer, when i stumbled upon the facebook home app. i wanted to see some screenshots of the app, so i clicked on it. to my surprise, under the install button, it said that one of my devices is compatible with the app.

that can’t be? I thought facebook home was only for the Samsung Galaxy S III, Samsung Galaxy Note II, HTC first, HTC One X and HTC One X+. Weird. Whenever i get ungrounded, i plan on installing my jelly bean ROMs to my mesmerize and testing to see which one facebook home works on. i have registered my phone multiple times on my google account under different roms, as you can see. there’s also Gateway NV-52, which is my laptop, that i booted android 4.2.2 on. I’ve only used about 3 jelly bean ROMs, and one 2.3.7 based ROM. i’ll get back to you after the testing. Facebook Home’s specifications also state that you must have android 4.0 and up, so i suspect the 2.3.7 ROM won’t work, so i’ll save it for last.

I tried it out a ways back when home was released. Didnt give it a long tryout but kinda was overwelming at first lol With your fb messages, chat, and your texts comming in all through facebook. I love my messaging and set up currently to leave it at this time. Which I know your able to turn off/pn and change different settings but was lagging down my phone at the time. Just didnt wanna deal with it I suppose but maybe try it out down the line again, sure much had already changed since when i tried it out. The patched/unlocked versions are suppose to work with all devices, Just requires Android ICS 4.0 or higher of course and your good to go. I used theos0o'd since I use a few of his other modded apps and know his stuff is good. Links below for anyone wanting to check it out or for future reference. :silly:

[Q] Rooted Galaxy Note 3 Screen Mirror Issues

Hi. I recently swopped my Sony Experia Z1 for a Samsung Galaxy Note 3. I believe the handset is rooted. I only know this because one of my favourite apps wont work and i got a message telling me it wont work on a rooted device. My problem however is this. When i go into settings and connections and select the screen mirroring, instead of searching for available devices it just says empty.
Screenshot attached
This is very frustrating. The problem also applies to S-Beam and Kies etc although i dont really care very much for those.
Can anyone offer some advice as to why this is happening?
I should mention the phone is running Android 4.4
Thanks

Anyone have problem when install OTA update?
My Tab found OTA, downloaded it but couldn't install it.
Sent from my SGP321 using XDA Free mobile app
In UK. Got the update on PCC, and installed it. But in the process, the tablet has taken owner account as my secondary email account (instead of the gmail account that was used before). I can't find a way to change it. Apart from a reinstall, anyone knows a way to correct it ? I tried deleting the email account from the tablet, and also tried adding the gmail account to the user data. It does not allow me to change the owner email. For some reason, it has taken the email account that I was using for Sony Entertainment Network and made it owner account. In the settings there is the option of Tablet setup guide option, that also does not allow me to change owner email..
The tablet is not Rooted and would like to keep it that way. Thanks

this happens sometimes, especially if you have root and recovery installed. Use pc-companion to update firmware.
Have to say after a few days of use with 5.1.1 my Stock (Non rooted)Tablet Z has never performed better...
Web pages load quickly , programs run perfectly, no noticeable lag, Bluetooth connections are quick and trouble free on all my devices..
Video playback from Vudu, Google play, Netflix are excellent..
Good job sony and thanks for keeping us in the loop...

Does snapchat not work on the Galaxy Tab 10.1 WiFi (GT-P7510)?

Ya I know, this may seem like a stupid question, but believe me I have valid reasons for asking it. So I have a Galaxy Tab 10.1 WiFi (GT-P7510) that had been sitting around not being used for quite some time. I decided to recently take it out and root it to run the snapprefs xposed module alongside snapchat. Well, first things first, the tablet was running Android 3.0 Honeycomb which is way out of date. I upgraded to the last update available for this tablet which was Android 4.0.4 ICS. through standard system update. I then rooted using CWM recovery and flashing over superuser. All worked well and the tablet was rooted. I installed the latest version of snapchat from the play store and attempted to login with ABSOLUTELY 100% VALID credentials. It went through the processes "logging in, verifying device, etc." and then crashed to the home screen. I tried uninstalling, reinstalling, signing up for new accounts, switching google accounts on the device, creating new google accounts, making sure google accounts were syncing correctly, making sure time and date was correct, downgrading snapchat to older versions, EVERYTHING. Absolutely nothing worked. The funny thing is that when initially opening snapchat, it would have the main screen where you see your camera open and have snap/stories notifications, etc. Then it would finish loading and go to the login/signup screen (since no account was logged in). That was when the problems would occur. I'm even able to sign up for new snapchat accounts which would go through just fine (I would receive the email notification from team snapchat), but when it was time to go to the main snapchat screen it would crash the same way as when logging in. At this point I was convinced that snapchat simply had issues running on 4.0.4 or something. I decided to flash a custom ROM to solve this. The first ROM I flashed was Nameless 4.4.4 .. Again, EXACT same issues. I was like wtf?? I then flashed Omni 4.4.4 and yep, same exact issue. I then tried CM 10.1 (4.2.2) and again, same issues. I went back to completely stock ICS 4.0.4 using Odin and ya, same issues as the first time. I really don't understand at this point. I thought it could be snapchat account issues so I tried logging in and logging out with all accounts that I attempted on the tablet using my Galaxy S6 Active which worked completely fine, so it's definitely something with the device. I'm someone that can typically figure out things for myself through researching, but at this point I'm really stuck, and I had to join this forum for assistance. If anyone would be able to help, I would GREATLY appreciate it. Does anyone have a Galaxy Tab 10.1 WiFi (GT-P7510) that they are currently running snapchat on? This is the original 10.1, and not the 2 or 3, and so on. Would anyone know what could possibly be going on? I wouldn't think that it would take much to run an app like snapchat, and I would think that the Tab 10.1's hardware would certainly be more than capable of doing so. The latest version of snapchat requires 4.0 and up, so I wouldn't think the android versions that I used would be an issue. Even the stock ICS 4.0.4 should be able to run it just fine. CM 10.1 was 4.2.2 and the other 2 ROMs that I tried were Omni 4.4.4 and Nameless 4.4.4.
I look forward to any help that can be provided. Thanks ahead of time everyone.
Got any solutions?
