Hi fellows,
I have got my Flyer a few days ago and absolutely loving it (like most of us here). However, I am a little stuck with something. There are a number of apps I don't find in the Android Market, which I had installed on my Desire S. For instance, below are the ones I find missing:
1- Marktplaats
2- Whatsapp
3- ABN AMRO Saldo
These are some of the must have apps for me. One thing I am suspecting is that since I have a Wifi only device, these apps might require a "phone" to get installed. Can someone here with a Flyer 3g version be kind enough to check these apps in the Android Market and let me know if they are available on the 3g models. If so, I'll sell mine and get a 3g version.
I also tried installing them from Appbrain but to no avail. Any other suggestion on how can I get them on my Flyer Wifi?
Thanks for your time and input in advance.
cheers,
Also on the last Facebook For Android Update it disappeared from my market too allthough i have it installed! (is not very good optimized for high res devices though).
BTW, Whatsapp doesn't shows up neither on my market.
Flyer 32GB/3g version.
I've noticed that many things are missing from the Market as well. When I go to the market through the browser and try to manually install it, I get an error that says my phone is not supported.
That implies to me that if your Flyer can't run it, it won't even show up in the market. This also goes for if the developers "update" an app and somehow neglect to add Flyer support... then it'll disappear from the market.
The app that I was trying to get was Netflix, which now works for Gingerbread... but doesn't work yet for our Flyers... They are still working on it, I'd guess...
Actually I've noticed apps that require the permission for "Phone: Read State of the Phone" or something like that, don't work most probably because we don't have phone.apk or dialer or whatever it is that lets you make phone calls.
App devs should consider tablets not to have this and remove it from the permissions they require.

Actually the 3G version does have a phone (disabled), SMS contacts etc. most of these apps should run just fine on the flyer. HTC really messed up with leaving the actual phone option disabled on this causing poor user experience both in regards to market access and actual usability.

True, they should just allow it to be used as a phone. Solves everything.

Firstly, a brand new device (my DHD went through this) is only able to see generic Google apps for about 1-2 months after launch.
Secondly (this does not apply to the OP) apps are limited by your location for who knows what reasons (Rights/social/religious restrictions ).
I have had 3x Android devices and live in the Mid-East. Google market is bare bones here but as soon as I take my devices back to UK... The curtains open on all the fair fields of app pleasure...
Can't get any dang updates when back here though... Anyone PM me the latest Fotmob apk?

I see. I've tried searching for Mega Jump in the Market and it doesn't show. I tried side loading it, and it works now.

for me it can't be location related. I have Desire S and Flyer both and live in The Netherlands. Apps on Desire S don't show up on my Flyer. I have also seen that Phone access is also not the factor (as some suspected), as some of the apps I have loaded on my Flyer did require Phone access and they installed even when Flyer is not a phone and mine is not even a 3G. Not sure what is keeping the full list of Android market apps to show up on Flyer.
I am also having trouble finding certain apps and I have the Evo View. Specifically Google Voice. I can get it to come up on App Brain but it says i can only download it from the Market which tells me it can't be found . I was kind of hoping to be able to do voice calls on this thing.
Contacted HTC
I'm not sure if anyone has contacted HTC yet about the missing apps so I sent them an email last night. I have the Evo View 4G and think the missing app problem can be resolved. At least I hope so. I don't mind installing APKs, but it doesn't make for easy updates and, frankly, we really shouldn't have to.
I do understand that certain apps won't be compatible with every device and these tablets are new to the market. But I think the ones that ARE missing are strange.
I haven't contacted HTC but I did send an email to the developer of one of the missing apps. No word yet. Even if you download APK from appbrain website and install "web installer" apk from the market, it still doesn't install the app. So it is not just not-showing issue, those apps are somehow not compatible with HTC flyer. Not sure what the difference is. Let's see if you get any response back from HTC.
HTC Response
Well, I did receive a response and basically was told to do what you've done and contact the developers.
"I understand that with you HTC Evo View 4G is not able to pull certain applications on the Market. With those applications I checked the Market on our tablet and they were not listed for me either. I believe with the device being so new the developers of those applications have yet to put the Evo View on their device list which allows people with those devices to download those applications. It is up to the developers to add support for the Evo View. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused."
Not exactly sure how other 'new' device get automagic app support without developers going in and checking the compatibility settings. Doesn't really make sense.
Agree! I don't think there would be a check box in the app somewhere for Flyer compatibility, which all of these developers missed to tick. Anyway, thanks for sharing the response from HTC. I'll send that to the developer and see if I get something back this time.
Let me know what you hear back from the Dev and if I need to get HTC back on the line, I will happily do so.
that's really strange. If I follow the link to the missing app on market.android.com, it works on my PC. But when I click on the same link from my HTC Flyer, it says "requested item could not be found". It really seems like that the access is blocked for HTC Flyer. May be we need to spoof the identity to install these apps.
I have forwarded HTC's response to the dev and let's see what they come back with.
Cheers,
OK. I made some more progress on this one. If I go to market.android.com and try to install ABNAMRO SALDO app (the one I am using as a test case), I see this (attached).
It lists all my Android devices and you can read what it says under HTC Flyer. Translation: this item is not compatible with your device.
I have sent email to ABNAMRO dev team. Waiting to hear from them. Will keep everyone posted.
I get the same thing here for the View. Keep me posted. Anxious to see what the dev comes back with. Also ready to contact HTC again. Good luck!

Don't get that mad on the "phone disabled" thing. it just happened with the Facebook For Android official app. The last update just went away while other apps updated without problems.
Is not only not showing up since the beggining, is also disappearing once we were able to download them.
BTW, i have audiogalaxy installed which checks "phone status" and works w/o problems.
Hello guys, im the developer of Root Call Blocker, an advanced call and SMS blocking app for rooted phones.
The app's home is here at XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1051274
We have had multiple reports that blocking is not working sometimes on the 3D phones, so we need some nice people to do some testing.
You can use the Groups function of the Lite version to do the testing - it gives you almost everything youd want from the app anyway.
Please post comments here, but also use the "Write to us" dialog in settings.
well i was using it on my 3vo but i started having a problem where it basically started blocking everyone so i uninstalled it i would like to use it again if u can tell how to keep it from doing that
edit: it worked fine for a couple days then it started messing up
reinstall it. it whould do that to me when i did an update. other than that its the best call blocker app
We used to have some DB update problems, they've been fixed for ages now...
I've been using this for a while. Lately it will block the calls but still allow them to leave voicemails. (Have it set not to allow)
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
I'll be happy to give this a whirl...looks to add great features!
Any shot of tester perks =-)
I'll report my feedback to you after a few days to play with it!
There are no perks besides the hint on how to use the lite version effectively
I have the pro version I love the app untill it started blocking everyone is there a way for me to set it up so that it doesn't do that again?
I shot the maid! What can I say? 3vo shooter
You must be doing something wrong... check for conflicts, read the Adding numbers help item.

Its really not that difficult. Just read the "Adding numbers" help item, it will explain everything you need to know to avoid making conflicting lists!
i know its not difficult i just had problems could have been from something else either way the issue is gone now but i am putting it back on my phone seeing that telemarketers are aloud to call cell phones now

Excellent, streamlined app!
I just switched from the Galaxy 2 to the 3D and have the program. First thing was it said the license couldnt be verified. Ill post if anything else doesnt work right. it did work well on the Galaxy two. The only issue I had on that phone was the program would not block people who had "Unknown Number" even after I added it to the blacklist.
Hi, the license is tied to the market in our own unbreakable way. Sometimes the market is buggered and you will get this message. If you do, just connect to wifi and manually check the license through settings!
Also, are you saying you have added the "Private and withheld" numbers item but calls from unknown numbers still come through?

Check through the setting and its still saying no license.
The listing is "Unavailable" I received a call with that one day and I added it to the black list. The "Unavailable" is listed in the black list and has the block icons with it but I did get 3 more calls come through "Unavailable".
Just FYI, I did use this as a Titanium Backup from my Epic 4GT and restored my Evo 3D.
As i said, you need to add the item i described above to your list. Please read the Adding numbers item for more information. Also, if the application is unlicensed, it will only block the first number in your list, so that might be the cause...
Regarding license. Your problem is restoring data through titanium. Use our internal backup method, then perform a clean install and restore the data.
Works great for me
I've been using the paid version of the app for about 2 months now (damn creditors) and it has been wonderful. I block about 6 numbers, notifications work fine and I am alerted when RCB has blocked a call. I'm running on warmtwopointthree RLS1 (nightlies until RLS1 dropped 11-20-11) never had a problem. TB Pro has been restoring just fine.
I did have one issue though, the first time it asked for root I pressed deny on accident.....so i chalk that up to user error
PM me if you would like any further or specialized testing, 10 out of 10 from me!
Issue [SOLVED] > market > search results found doesn't equal search results shown.
Hello fellow's
Have you guys noticed that since the new android market came upon us, that there is troublesome to not say impossible to find some applications using the search function.
For instance, if I search "mario"; I will have 3 apps showing. All though the top bar says it found over 2000 results. Nevertheless I would not be able to download or even have these results displayed for me.
It's probably worth mentioning that I'm not the only one that having this issue. I've noticed that ALL phones have the same issue as I do. Some of these different phones have custom kernels and custom roms, but not all. So there's no need for searching error in roms, phones, etc.
I have successfully uninstalled NEW Android Market from my phone and restored the OLD android market.
It works just fine as it displays all search results that are found.
Yet the problem remains since google has arranged a silence update of market. Within 30 minutes I have the new market once again installed.
* Is there any solution?
* If not, is it possible to turn off silent updates?

"It F***ing prints money!"
Me too i have problem with market from XDAndroid it doesen't show all application : /
My guess is that everyone are having the same experience. Although I don't think too many are aware of this, rather major, bug.
To clarify for those who still doesn't have a clue of what I'm talking about:
Pay attention to the top bar where the search hits are stated. Remember this number of found apps. Compare this to how many apps you REALLY are shown. Shouldn't be too many scrolls until you reach rock bottom. XD
Also.. Let us try to exclude that this hasn't got anything to do with any regional restrictions of any kind, by stating our nationality, carrier, brand of phones/tablets, custom/stock rom and the current status of the search function in android market, at the beginning of our first posts in this thread. I'll probably be first one out to do this.
For all your convenience; just copy/paste the template below:

"It f***ing prints money!"
When you do a search in the new market only a few apps show.
You have to tap on the bar that tell you how many apps found and the rest will show.

I wish it would be that easy.
I don't mean to be rude in no way. But have you even tried that yourself?
My experience says that's bogus. If it would be pushable then probably it would look more like a button or clickable link, wouldn't it?
200.000.000.000$ Google inc. Should atleast provide hints on how to get all apps to show. Besides the billions; Google is the world largest internet search provider. It would be a great FAIL by Google if this isn't a big bug.
Nevertheless, button or not, the tapping trick will not do it. I've tried that on atleast 8 phones, different brand, different roms, different kernels. It just makes me feel stupid, tapping like a freak on my friends phones.
If you still claims that tapping is the trick. Then I would like you to take screenshots of it.
Please search for "Mario" and post screenshots of new market showing more than 5 results of Mario.
And if it is true that tapping is the way to go. Then we've probably have got ourselves a regional issue.
Also... Please provide information about your country, phone, rom, etc, etc,
The End.

Simple solution: go to online market to search and download the apps you need.
So simple!

Same problem.
Only just noticed it now. Thought it was my phone as google searches would not yield any results for me on the problem, probably due to wrong wording mind. I'm on stock Motorola atrix 2.2 UK rom with newish market update.
What a major oversight by google, surely they should have fixed this by now.
I do a search for music and the grey bar says there are 25978 results I click on the tab arrow to display what I assume will be the 25978 app results. I get 20 apps, that's it? Everyone here who has actually noticed still having this issue I take it?
I have this issue too. Was trying to search for "Handcent" but it returns only 2 results, neither are the actual app.

Agree, I touch there, it shows 3 hits, and 1311 results along the top:
See imageshack.us/photo/my-images/853/sc20111028081055.png/
Sorry I don't have enough posts yet to include the link.
The issue is that you can not touch and open the additional 1311 results.
easy fix for market.
Use any apparently that will freeze apks. Freeze market upgrader. Then uninstall market updates in manage applications. Once you uninstalled the update,you'll be back on the old market until you unfreeze the market updater. Hope this helps.
Even though I'm not rooted I have had that happen to me as well. Another problem I have is getting stuck in download loops. The only fix is to reboot my phone.

If you can't get the app you want, than that's a real issue. You could search for it on you PC on the android market and then install from there to you phone.

Thanks!!
That was exactly what I was hoping for. How to disable that stupid silent update of google.
That really did the trick!
I can't understand how I possible could have missed that obvious application; "Market Updater.apk", when going through system apps over and over again, looking for the damn silent updater application.
I greatly appreciate your help. I was about to surrender to Google's ignorance and become one of it's stupidity.
Again, thank you for taking your time helping.

I have question about security. I have to know what options are there to find out sms conversation. I use Handcent sms in which I use privacy box with one person to determine that noone else except me would know what we are texting about. But one thing happened. Third person know what exactly we are texting about, even if I constantly deleted sms everyday. I can't imagine the way how he find out this.
I study software development so about security I know something. I know that handcent saves database of sms even if they are deleted or not. I used sqlite to find out what is exactly in the db and find out, that this is not right way how he find out. I also find out that in handcent autobackup option was checked, but noticed that when you delete sms, backup file changed and there were only sms i intented to be there. I also tried antivirus programs to find out if there is some kind of malware or trojan, nothing found.
So my question is: what options of finding out sms conversation are there? Even if third person can access mentioned mobile phone or not?
I will appreciate any good advice

Was it a known person? Or a random person? If he was a friend/person you know, then he either heard through the grape vine or got your phone or the person you were textings phone. I dont think there is a way to "hack" your phone from a computer and view the texts you sent. Unless he got them from your carrier.

Yes it is but would need to go through tones of red tape and have to be a Cop of some kind.
Most likely it was who ever you were texting. There are also other ways that it could happen. Apps that forward all texts to another number used to be a big one back in windows mobile days. Not sure if there is an app like that for android

It's probably the problem that this person has a friend which works for vodafone which this phone uses. Forwarding all texts is not possible i think, because this person would catch up on this earlier..

There used to be an app that could be installed that did all this with the user even knowing about it. Once installed it was hidden away and it never showed that the messages would be forwarded. It was a proof of concept app that someone made for learning. If they had someone working for the company it would have to be a higher up to have access to the cached data bases the company keeps which are encrypted.
I have a feeling the OP was ratted out by the one they were texting.

Ok, thank you for your advice. So if there is hidden app registered as service it can be seen through logcat when I intent to send sms, am I right?
About the company, this person works here on higher places, dont realy know what is his position some kind of IT specialist, gonna investigate this..
I keep getting an error whenever someone sends me a picture message, saying the message was not downloaded, tap to retry. Tapping to retry does nothing, and then I'll get the same error notification several times a day, until I just go and delete the failed picture download. In many or all cases tho, the picture actually does download. I'm on T-Mobile but haven't had this error for years on several different phones..... just the Tmo V30. Anyone else?
I'm getting the same thing on my T-Mobile V30+ is super annoying. I have no idea what is causing it.

No, disabling Android Pay by using settings in the phone wouldn't cause that issue with texts.
The only reason I'm asking if because a few times when people have complained about stuff not working -- like Always On Display and other things -- turns out they used package disabler or ADB (using the same vague package disabler descriptions) to disable/remove what they thought was "bloatware" but was really stuff they wanted to work.
Or caused severe lag, because the phone apparently looks for what's missing before giving up. It's ironic people are slowing their own phones down...
1) a lot of things are interconnected.
2) true bloatware isn't labelled "this is useless", with important stuff labeled "this is important".
Right now there's a case where a guy and his wife both have T-Mobile LG V30, on T-Mobile with the same plan, same exact firmware. But one has VoLTE grayed out while the other doesn't, and one dialer doesn't show voicemail icon while the other does. He used the package disabler to disable some services and apps, but we don't know why they're different if he disabled the same things? He also doesn't know what to re-enable to get everything back.
But it sounds like that's not the reason in your case.

Yes, gotcha. I've kinda been there, done that haha. In the past. These days I don't do much to my phone, just let it be and work like normal. Well, hopefully it works anyway
Same issue on T-Mobile v30+.... sometimes MMS/photos fail and offers "retry" only to fail again.... doesn't happen all the time....usually on 5 or more mb images.
What's strange is that it seems like I sometimes get the picture AND a failed message. Like if somebody sends me two pictures, I'll get the two pictures and two failed messages. So I'll I wonder if maybe they sent me four pictures, but when I ask they tell me they sent me two. Weird

I keep getting an error whenever someone sends me a picture message, saying the message was not downloaded, tap to retry. Tapping to retry does nothing, and then I'll get the same error notification several times a day, until I just go and delete the failed picture download. In many or all cases tho, the picture actually does download. I'm on T-Mobile but haven't had this error for years on several different phones..... just the Tmo V30. Anyone else?

I was not able to receive any mms messages until I added my phone number in the advanced tab of the stock messaging app.
If you haven't tried this, maybe it's worth a shot.

Where exactly in the advanced tab did you put your phone number?

Go to settings and select advanced. At the very bottom you will see PHONE NUMBER.
On my phone it said unknown. When I clicked on it, it opened a window to enter the number.

Interesting. In the stock messaging app, I don't see anything like that. T-Mobile V30, H93210d, Android 7.1.2

This doesn't look like the stock V30 messaging app? At least not the one on my T-Mobile V30 either. Reminds me of the Google messaging app?

It's a carrier locked phone from Claro latin America. They seem to be using mostly stock google apps except for the dialer. Gallery and music have both LG and Google versions.. I have not used any other V30 so I thought all other carrier versions were the same.

Ah gotcha, interesting. The models I've seen here in the states have all LG apps
Same thing here
Hey all. I have had the same issue from the first week I got both my V30's and I am on T-Mobile as well. I went to the store and they tried every troubleshooting step they could and tried every combination of settings. I am using the stock messaging app and even with a third party google messages app, it still happens so I think it's a T-Mobile issue. They had tech support call me which was not very helpful because they tried doing the same steps the store did and I should mention I worked for Verizon Tech for ten years so I kind of know my way around a phone. I went and completed a master reset and restored nothing at all, and it still happened. I changed the sim like T-Mobile said and still the same. I connected my phone to my PC and used LG software upgrade and repair tool after the new software was available and still the same. Went back to the store and they are going to send me a warranty replacement even though it is happening on both my phones. T-Mobile is not acknowledging this issue and if this warranty replacement has the same problem, I will take it to the next step and report it to the BBB.
Any updates? Having same issues. Changed sms to mms and vice versa but still no change. Picture messages fail to download regardless of size even at 900 kb. People say they get my messages 5-10 minutes after I send to them. My group messages seem to be on a huge delay in receiving and sending.
