Hi everyone.
I'm having an unusual mistake on my Xperia Play, I'm currently running Skype 2.0.0.47 mod app obtained from here (XDA developers) which allow the Xperia Play to make video calls, but today while on the market I noticed there is a Skype Update to version 2.1.0.46 which officially support Xperia Play.
So I thought, OK, maybe is time to left the mod and jump to the official App to that supports my PLAY, but after downloading the file and while trying to install it the file my phone prompt a message :
ERROR Package was not signed correctly
So I wasn't updated at all, I'm still running on 2.0.0.47 mod , but I was wondering if it is a mistake on Skype side while compiling the app, or if it is because of my set is currently running a Modded Skype app?
I read all the comments on the app section, and nobody is complaining about that, in fact nobody is commenting about it working on the Xperia Play... can you guys give it a try and let me know if yours worked fine?
I'm running on Gingerbread (Updated via SEUS) not rooted nor flashed, R800a.
Thanks
You have to uninstall the XDA-provided version first. So to say, the system finds that the Skype of the market and the XDA-provided Skype are incompatible, and it won't allow you to update one with the other.
One big dev, supercurio, has said that this system is retarded, as it implies that people who use pirated apps would have to uninstall them, and lose the data if the app can't back it up on the SD card, if they decide to "go legal" and buy it from the Market. It's not an issue in Skype, because it is free, but paid-for apps suffer.
I just "thanked" you, Uninstalling Modded Skype right now.
The official app is good now? It supports video calls? Should I also update from the xda one?
Yes it is,
version 2.1.0.046 is up on the market right now and it is working on the xperia play in a "OFFICIAL" manner
You can update it but you first need to remove the XDA modded app, it will show an error if you don't remove the modded app, and fore close the installation.
I did it, and it worked
I installed the new Skype Version and Videocalls works fine on my Play now, but only in Landscape Mode! It this a Bug or all here have the same "problem" here?

It isn't a bug, its a design limitation/stupidity. Honestly... What were they thinking with sideways FFC support. >_< I hope they will accept either an option or implement sensor checking for rotation.
really dissapointed they have not made this HC compatable.
i'm gonna have to wait to see is someone will unlock this version to allow all devices to try video
So which is better to use? The xda one or official updated one?
The official one IMO. The main reason to use patched Skype is because it is patched to support devices that it officially doesn't. Once your phone is officially able to use Skype, there's no reason why you should bother with patched versions.

Patched one has easy exit button and remembers the password for quick sign in - I believe the official one does not do it. That's the main reason for patched one with me.
Some other tweaks are disabling sign-in sound and colour icon to indicate your status which can be also useful. Possibly bluetooth is supported too but I have not tested it.
Funny... I had patched version 2.0.0.47 and it didn't remember the password, nor have an exit button... that's why I Didn't felt any difference... you may have the 2.0.0.45 patched version instead...
Maybe we can ask the devs, to patch the official version to have this setup also. It will be amazing to have the exit button.
also do anyone knows a workaround to prevent the skype to start on the background everytime I get online via Wifi or 3g... getting tired of that.!

The official one has an exit button, personaly i prefer it when apps remember username and not password for security reasons and it supports bluetooth
Awesome it works great

you mean the sign out option that pops up when you press the menu button while on the profile tab?
i have 2.0.0.47 and it has an option for video calling, but 2.1.0.46 does not have that option for me, had to revert to my modded version...any ideas?

Those in the whatsapp beta for Android should update your software ASAP, because they just put in push functionality for everyone with a 2.2 phone. Is this the only software so far not from google to actually use the 2.2 push function? (C2DM and the likes do not count)
how is it different to what its doing now?? i shall update soon after i finish charging

It doesn't poll like the old version anymore, and after some testing, I am getting my messages a little faster, because there is usually a 10-20 second delay when the app is sleeping, but this time it's like a 2-3 second after my friend sends me the text via whatsapp.
ahh right so there would be better battery life too??
Is the beta app available? Have they mentioned a release date?
Thanks

Whatsapp is probably one of the most useful apps for someone coming from a blackberry and misses BBMs. The difference is the speed but the main upside is that it's crossplatformed. Also the app is good for people that travel and have an open wifi spot. Free messaging to friends back home is well worth it.

Nope, but it should be within the next few months, it's already very stable other than some of the extra stuff like backgrounds, etc.

Yeah, since I have quite a few friends with an iphone and BB, I'm able to send them messages via my data plan.
AppBrain's Fastweb Installer uses C2DM too for installation of applications from your PC browser.
Anything that uses C2DM is immediately interesting, I'll check it out!

It's not using the same type of 2.2 push unfortunately.
hows it different?
EDIT: also seems like there are sometimes big delays between messages. whatsapp keeps disconnecting in the new version
I had to revert back to an older verison I believe. Newest version yesterday kept logging me off also and messages were stalled until I sent one out then they'd all come in.
Looked on the changelog and they took off the "Push Notifications"
Currently running: v1.0.6138
I'm using whatsapp on 2.1. working pretty well so far. ... thinking of getting 2.2 but no sense UI ROM for hero yet.
can we have a link to the apps apk?
Aww man, they removed push notifications via C2DM and the reason was they need to give google a quota? I have no idea what that means.
http://beta.whatsapp.com/test/7/WhatsApp.html
* google push disabled -- we need quota from google
really, what's the difference/advantage of using C2DM. i dont understand what's going on in the background.
Yepp.... just downloaded the APK from the link provided above... You can download and install it, but when it asks for your display name, you will get a message that says "Unauthorized beta user, DO NOT E-MAIL US", or something like that.
That's too bad because I loved it on my BB to chat with my iPhone friends, you would think that it would be easier and faster to create an app for Android and it would already be out in the market !!
it works!! everyone gets that message just wait till tommorrow and try again and it will work. Heaps of people have had success using this method. dont give up so easily
updated yesterday and they've been approved for the push notification via GOOGLE's c2dm.
Only thing i've noticed is that the app unlike iPhone's version doesn't time out while it's in the background. So it seems like you're always logged in. This could be corrected by a task manager app to kill the app but once you receive a new message it auto logs you on and double check marks the message as read.
Did you know the Evo 4G has a secret second notification LED? It's true! Located on the right side of the speaker near the Sprint logo, the so-called WiMAX LED was added by HTC but never put to work. With WiMAX Message Notifier, you can put this LED to good use.
---
Downloads below. If you have any issues, please, please, please read the release notes and FAQs before you post here.
If you get an FC, check logcat (e.g., using aLogcat) to see if there is a stack trace. Next, check to see if there is a log file on your SD card in the /WiMAXNotifier/logs/ directory. If you find anything, please post it here, or let me know if there are still no logs.
IMPORTANT: Uninstall any previous version of WiMAX Notifier before installing the latest one! That shouldn't be necessary in the future, but for now it is.
Market: coming soon! Either with the next version, or once I am confident that this version is stable.
Source code: evo-wimax-led-notifier Google Code project page
Release Notes:
Possible future improvements:
Support for email/missed call/voicemail/whatever notifications (requires research)
Revamp the UI (Just needs some time)
Coming soon
4G connectivity notifications (I mostly know how to do this)
GMail notifications
ETA: ???
v2011-01-30.2 BETA (current)
Non-broken version of what 2011-01-30.1 should have fixed. Needs testing on CM. Thanks pseudo_nomen!
If you are running a version older than v2011-01-23.1, you need to uninstall it before installing this version.
Ignore all texts from sender 9016 - these are Sprint notifications. This should really fix the voicemail-causing-light-to-get-stuck-on bug.
v2011-01-30.1 BETA (broken, don't use)
Hopefully fixed the issue where new voicemail notifications would cause the LED to come on and get stuck on. I have no idea if this will work on CyanogenMod or with any given messaging app.
If you are running a version older than v2011-01-23.1, you need to uninstall it before installing this version.
Examine incoming SMSes and try to determine whether they are text messages or voicemail control commands
v2011-01-24.1
Try to work around a bug in CyanogenMod. This should work on all ROMs, but if you already have v2011-01-23.1 and you aren't running CM, there's not any reason to upgrade.
If you are running a version older than v2011-01-23.1, you need to uninstall it before installing this version.
Check for ability to write to device, and try root if unable to. Hopefully this will work around a bug in CyanogenMod.
v2011-01-23.1
Almost completely re-written! Should be much faster and more reliable than bluedragon's version.
Uninstall old versions before installing this one!
Rewrote LED control code with a much less hacky version. Should be faster and more compatible across phones/ROMs.
Rewrote notification management code. Benefits: More stable, much faster detection of messages getting read, less battery usage (may not be noticeable)
New GUI. Currently looks pretty awful, as it was not a priority in this version.
App will now check to make sure the WiMAX LED is available whenever you start it. If you get a message saying "Your phone/ROM doesn't support the WiMAX LED!", post a message here with your hardware revision, ROM, and kernel.
Prepared code for adding new features.
v2011-01-08.1 (doesn't work for some people)
I still haven't been able to track down the FCs. The only big change in this version is the addition of a lot more logging - hopefully I'll finally be able to catch them.
More logging to try and catch those elusive FCs.
Move "Reset LED" to the main screen of the app instead of having it in a menu.
v2011-01-04 19:11
Initial release. There will still probably be FCs. I am trying to track down where they are coming from.
Added a "Reset LED" option in case the service crashes without disabling the LED. You can access it by opening the app and pressing menu. It will turn the LED off (but won't mark your messages as read).
* This is an update of the abandoned WiMAX Message Notifier project by bluedragon742. The primary goal is to fix the random Force Closes present in bluedragon's version. I may also add additional features at a later point.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
Q. How do I stop the normal LED from coming on? I don't need both!
A. From the launcher, press Menu and go to Settings --> Display --> Notification flash. You can then uncheck SMS/MMS. If you want to disable the built-in vibration/sound, or if you are using a non-stock messaging app, you should check the settings in all of the messaging apps you have installed.
Q. How much does this app cost?
A. For XDA members, it's free. There will be a paid version in the Market at some point, probably for $0.99. Of course, donations are always gladly accepted. If you're too cheap/broke to send me a buck or two, Dropbox signups through my referral link are always appreciated.
Q. Is this app ad-supported?
A. Nope. There really isn't any way I can think of to add ads.
Q. Does this app require root?
A. No.
Q. Is ____ feature supported?
A. Currently this app only handles SMS and MMS messages. I will hopefully be able to support incoming/missed calls, new voicemails, and GMail in future releases.
Q. Will this app drain my battery?
A. This app runs in the background via a Broadcast Receiver and only runs the service while the LED is on which therefore should not kill your battery.
Q. Can you support ____ rate or _____ color?
A. I am limited to what colors and rates are provided by the system.
Q. Are you using all of the available rates and colors?
A. Yes
Q. Will this work with my current SMS/MMS app and do I have to disable any notifications?
A. This app is designed to compliment, or work along side, your existing SMS/MMS app meaning that you should not have to disable anything in order for this app to work properly. It has been tested with the stock SMS/MMS app, Handcent, and Chomp.
Q. Do you have a Twitter account that I can follow to track your progress?
A. No. All progress will be posted in this thread, so you might have to dig through it.
Q. How do I live test the SMS and MMS notifications to make sure they work correctly?
A. Simple - send yourself an e-mail to "[your 10-digit number]@messaging.sprintpcs.com" for SMS or "[your 10-digit number]@pm.sprint.com" for MMS
Q. Does the message service always run in the background?
A. No. It is started when a new message is received and killed when the message has been read.
Q. What should I do if this app force closes?
A. Post here with the contents of the file "/sdcard/WiMAXNotifier/logs/wmnTrace_XXXXX.stack" if one exists and a dump from LogCat so that I may see what is causing the problem and fix it quickly. The .stack file is just a normal text file; you can rename it to .txt and attach it to your post, or open it in a text editor and copy the contents to Pastebin.com then post a link.
Q. Why does this app require Internet permissions?
A. In order for the hyperlinks in the About dialog to work correctly. (Full permissions list coming soon!)
Reserved for possible future use.
Niiice, glad to see a new thread. Thanks for keeping it alive and hopefully updated.

I'm not too surprised - I only fixed a few very minor things in this release. My main goal was to add the turn off led feature and get a new thread started. I plan to look more closely at it this weekend.
Do you recomend us removing the update from November/December and installing the january update from scratch. Or is it ok to just installe the new version over the older one?

Hey guys,
Previously I tried installing Google Talk w/ Video on J's CM7 to no avail. However, now that we have the official GB from SE we can now install it and I can confirm that it is working on our X10s. I know there is no front facing camera, but it's still a cool feature to have. This feature is supposed to be only for the 2.3.4 update but it can be yours if you have root. Much thanks to developer (Paul from MoDaco) for creating this installer and BluechipJ for making the youtube installation guide.
More information is in the description on the youtube video.

Thanks Again Paul from MoDaco and BluechipJ!

Weird, I wonder why that is. I installed it on both of my X10s. One running rooted stock and the other Wolf's version. Both of them work fine. I noticed that we have to allow video and voice chats once you sign into talk. You probably already did it but for those that haven't yet press your picture icon and then it will go to a update status area and you can click it there.

Good evening!
If you're reading this, then you for sure know what Spotify is. We all love listening to music and, ugh, that's the synonym of Spotify!
Unfortunately, this work could be used for two fully opposite reasons, one of which is against the XDA rules, so I had no other choice but to close this thread (and remove links). I hope you understand me and sorry for the inconvenience.
Feel free to read the history below. It was a fun ride!
Time ago, the app landed on our lovely Android platform for both tablets and phones and honestly who wasn't excited?
Soon after, forced shuffle mode and limited number of skips were also introduced and I agree that there must be a reason to purchase Premium after all. Luckily, this restriction was not enabled on tablets, but a problem that appears is that far from all tablets are detected as ones - mainly the "smaller" ones. This [bug/miss-code] activates the restriction on your tablet, and as a fix was needed from either side, here was my solution.
This mod was created for all those "small tablets" that are incorrectly recognized so that you can use Spotify the way it was meant to be used.

Regarding Facebook log in issue:
The signature/private hash (or not) of this app was not matching the original one Spotify had registered on Facebook. Absolutely understandable since this was a modified version.
As suggested by Romain12345 (thank you!), can you log in with your Facebook credentials instead of clicking on the "Log in with Facebook" button.

MEGA is never down, it only needs the app for android if you want to download from phone. That's the reason I personally won't mirror.
About installing, you need to have "Unknown sources" enabled in your Security settings. Then just open the APK and install it as normal. If you still can't figure it out check YouTube for thousands of tutorials.

So please If you give me your email, I'll send the last apk version of spotify compatible with gingerbread to you.

OP I could possibly kiss you all day and it wouldn't be enough. Worked like a charm.
Also the server seemed to be down only in parts around the world. So anyone being unable to connect simply use a VPN. Works perfectly with a VPN.
Though it is currently up again.
Op finally I got it downloaded. Thanks so much but I have a question. Is it possible for me to download for offline for free with this mod?

Absolutely not. I am not "hacking" Spotify and making it Premium-free and that will never be my aim. I am just making it possible to run in tablet mode on smaller tables.
Works like a charm, thank you
Logged-in with facebook, why does the op state it's not working
Been using iYTBP for a long time both rooted and rootless versions on my Sony droids.
Since moving to Razer I have to admit I've missed this app a lot.
Don't know what it is?
Where the fk have you been!
iYTBP = Injected YouTube with Background Playback
(including Screen off Playback) & NO ADVERTS!
All credits to the entire team who work very hard at pushing this amazingly modded YouTube app.
All you need to know is this is a rootless version - which can be installed alongside your original YouTube installation without issue.
I can verify the version I am gonna post here woks as I expect it too.
Don't post here for help, goto the original thread and ask the geniuses themselves, however all you need to know I have posted here.
Original thread and credits due here
(FYI The 3rd post is for rootless versions - and is where I located the necessary Latest arm64 version.) https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...cted-youtube-background-t3560900/post71133073
I'm hosting necessary apks on my drive for a short while here (for my new Razer family.) This is the latest (December 4th) update from the IYTBP team. https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=1o76gLX3ov5mqpPvmSLZCNppYWB6AiOFU
1. Install the iYTBP app.
2. You cannot sign in to this modded YouTube app WITHOUT also installing MicroG, which will in turn automagically allow you to add your Google/YouTube account.
3. Btw to sign in, click the top right corner in iYTBP (which is blacked out) and it will take you to add account (notice when pressing + button the UI will not do anything UNLESS you install MicroG.)
For whatever reason if you did not want to Sign in to your YouTube account then you can ignore installation of MicroG and continue using iYTBP without an account.
The above is all you need to know.
Again if you need further assistance then hit them up on the original thread I linked above.
For me this app is possibly the very best of what our Android Community offer us (specifically rootless.)
My drive hosts the Black/Red themed version Only, but they also supply a vanilla version (https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=889964283620770246) but I think you'll agree BalckRed is niiiiiiice.
Note you may still receive the odd advert (very rare - with my first hand experience) or a quirky UI glitch (specifically perhaps black text on black background anomaly - again very rare)...adopt a little give and take rather then getting annoyed.
Feel obliged to report any issues on the iYTBP thread, they are very accomodating and actually work hard to rectify any issues.
For your future reference: if/when you want to update your version of iYTBP then you'll need to seek out the "arm64 NoDPI Vanced ROOTLESS" version.
(However personally I tend not to fuss about updating this app - if it works it works - I'm not bothered about missing new UI features Google continually add to YouTube
Enjoy
Some screens

this works well also
I don't get it, youtube has an app?

Yes but YouTube is inundated with adverts in its UI and adverts before videos.
This modded/injected version of YouTube "eliminates adverts" and allows for "background playback."
It is a comprehensive modded YouTube app with much desirable features I just detailed.
The OP is relatively self explanatory.
Please read it I'm sure you will make sense of it
If your still lost then read through the iYTBP OP for your clarification:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...cted-youtube-background-t3560900/post71132316
Apologies, I skimmed it ?
Being back to Android after a 5 year break, I am surprised with the amount of complacency in the Android user world that has resulted in so many mainstream apps that inundate everyone with so many garbage ads.
Pretty surprised... ?
Installed, Removed the old YT app, loving this one.

Cool, yeh it's hard not to love.
Also check out the baked in iYTB settings (see screenshots).
Specifically VP9 Encoder (http://coconut.co/vp9)
BTW no real necessity to remove the Original YouTube app unless you're struggling for storage space. Otherwise each to there own.
Enjoy
My videos seem to be out of sync when using this app. What am I doing wrong?
