only rumour but the up coming Z1 is able to run android apps
Sent from my SM-T320 using XDA Free mobile app

Rumor sadly incorrect: Android apps won't run on the Z1.
I'd love to find a way to install Android apps on the Gear S. The Tizen app store is such a joke

Google won't let Samsung get away with installing Google Play Market apps, especially Google services apps on a non-sanctioned OS, especially the one Samsung is hoping to compete against Android OS. So, the best Samsung can do is create its own app market and hope devs are supporting it. I seriously doubt this will take off. Samsung can't even make its own Android app work correctly across its own ranges of Android phones. They know how to make fantastic phones but their software has always below average.

Glad im not the only one.
I too have been searching for how to do this. Did you ever succeed?
I found some android 5.0 links from a google search, but they look fake. wonder if CM11 or CM12 would work OR the method used for the gear 2. Sure would be nice. i almost got the ZGPAX S8 (nearly the same guts), but opted for the Gear S (for the scren) w/ hopes for the eventual android ROM.
Fingers Crossed,
:good:

hasnt happened, there is nothing in the works, any links on google that say otherwise are false....

Google Wallet Support

Sorry if I don't make any sense , this is my first post.
But I wanted to know if theres anyway I can use/enable the Google Wallet Application on my Sony Xperia S as it has NFC support which is required to use Google Wallet.
I read some fourms that there is a cracked version that will work if if you install CM 7. But I wanted to know if this is true or if they are any other methods because I really want to get this to work!
Any help or information would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

As I know, in this moment it is impossible to use Google Wallet in other phones then a few more supported by Google. Cracked versions could be installed on other devices, also XPS, but it dosen't work. In some cases (Samsung phones) you can install cracked version, but I would avoid this - it is your money security matter. I see, that lack of GW on other devices - is Google choice. Maybe they just testing this feature and we have to wait.
yeah, suck google, release the thingy to everyone, why the wait, it's been out for awhile now.
i tried a lots of methods to install it but no go any way. but mastercard is releasing its similar wallet app very soon in which you'll be able to register any credit/bank card, not just mastercards, and there you go, go to hell google, you lost
.
I really want GW for my SXS, too

Missing out (again) on Device compatibility. Virgin TV Anywhere (UK)

I see the Ultra is not supported for this App. Disappointing considering we still can't download with Iplayer.......
Devices which can use Anywhere app
Sony Xperia L (C2105)
Sony Xperia SP (C5302/03/06)
Sony Xperia Z (C6602/03)
Sony Xperia Z1 (C6902/03/06/43)
Sony Xperia U (ST25)
It's Virgin's responsibility to update their app. Send them a mail and ask if they can update it.
The Ultra is missed by a lot of developers. I've had a good response rate from developers and they have all said that they acknowledge the issue and will get an update done.

They have only just added any Android support - took them ages. Use the "Contact Us" form on their website to request it to be added, that's what I've done.
If you are rooted there uses a module for xposed called play store fixes which tricks it into thinking the dpi of the phone is different.

I don't believe it's a DPI issue, it's model.
Answer from Virgin Media, not good news:
Thanks for your e-mail to Virgin Media about the availability of the
Sony Xperia Z Ultra on TV Anywhere.
We understand your concern.
Right now, we're sorry but it doesn't look like we've got any plans to
add Sony Xperia Z Ultra on TV Anywhere App. We're always working with
the providers to bring our customers even more choice on Virgin TV, so
keep your eyes peeled! And check out www.virginmedia.com for the latest
stuff.

I don't see why there's a problem, there are many android devices with the same screen resolution and processor.
I would try one of the market helper apps, or xposed, to make Google Play think you're on a recognised device. I had to do this with previous phone, Note 2, to load the tesco clubcard TV app.

Doesn't the phone have to be rooted to use xposed? If so, then the app won't work anyway on rooted devices according to the comments in the store
A late reply but I have a One X which is also not supported. I used Device Spoofer to make my device appear as the HTC One. I was able to download and install the app from the market. In addition the app's record, remote control and program manager functions work perfectly however the ability to watch programs on the phone is blocked by a root checker.

Virgin say you can use those features of the app from any android phone.

You can only install the app on an approved device though (officially). The TVguide app has record functions but it doesn't have have network remote features.
Why do they do a root check? You can use the software on any PC, with whatever hacks you want installed, but there's some obsession with root on Android...

[Q] How to open a support ticket to google?

Hi guys,
I have created a tiny app to automate my phone (a Samsung Galaxy S4) to do a simple task of my daily basics needs.
Basically it turns ON and OFF the bluetooth radio of my phone when I drive my car so it connects to the hands-free device of my car.
The application works great on my Android 4.3 device, however on Android 4.4 (KitKat) it doesn't work because it uses Google Play Services API for driving recognition and they (google) seemed to have changed the API on KitKat!
So my question is, can someone help me open a ticket to google to question about that changes on the API?
Google only allows tickets from anyone with one of Google Apps for Business, Education, Government, or Nonprofit accounts!
BTW: The app is named "bluetooth drive link" and is available at Google Play -> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ferfig.bluetoothdrivelinkdemo
Anyone?!

Sorry guys, I have given up on Tizen and Samsung.
I updated my Gear 2 with Android Wear.
without owning one, it is undoable to make an update for Gear S.

Yes, I'm sure.
Regarding your other question: Maybe you will find help in some sort of China-Phone forums. I guess no one will know the app (or your watch) here in the WearOS forum.
Ohh thanks
