[WIP][MOD] Google Play Movies for rooted devices [?] - Android Apps and Games

Hey.
Saw that new APK around here and users whining about being locked out for having rooted devices.
I said I'd give it a go.
***edit: not working yet

Working perfectly, thanks mate!

Not renting until I go to Italy on the 29th, but it should work as the test is just on startup and you use the market to root

Any attempt to view a movie caused my A500 running ICS to reboot, the official app does not do this (it also doesn't play them, probably due to root)... can get logs another day, busy..

Hmmm.
Maybe this package is for Honeycomb & ICS.
edit:
Anyone else that has installed the APK and tried playing rented content?
Feedback please!

Play music not working
I downloaded the new play music and it does not work PROPERLY.
I am in Canada with a rooted Galaxy Nexus running CM9.
the app did install and it runs, it even lets you rent a movie, but it wont play.
When you click play on the movie it says failed to fetch license touch to retry.
When you try to manage your offline movies and select your newly rented movie it says failed again error 925.
I hope they can figure this out so that i can rent movies.

@trevorsm99
I've PM'd you with a newer APK, can you try it and write back?

edit:
I just checked AndroidManifest and I confirmed this apk is built for Android 3.2 or higher!
You'll get "error parsing package" if you try to install it on older android builds.
If this mod works correctly, I will probably be able to mod the apk for Froyo/GB/etc.
Ok here's the newer APK just in case anyone wants to test it before trevorsm99
**REMOVED: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23416807&postcount=18 **
Please rent & try to playback something, because playing back rented content was broken in my previous APK, according to trevorsm99's post.

What does this mean?
Did you uninstall the original google play movies first?
It does install just fine on my SGS.

I can install it and my "test movie" i purchased shows up in the queue of the "movie app" unlike the stock version..When I start the movie, I get a licensing error...Im on cm9 on galaxy s and I couldn't my test movie to play...
p.s. I am referring to the version from yesterday in my initial comment...I just tried the new one and I can't install it...I changed permissions and still couldn't install the new one...cm9 as well

You're right.
Here's another (3rd) apk:
http://www.mediafire.com/?8jv7x8yxupbsils
This DOES install on android 3.2+.

installs this time but I am getting an error just like the very first version of the mod "failed to fetch license..touch to retry"..thanks for the apk...shows up I press play on the movie rented

[APP] Hulu Works On G2x

i got hulu to work on my g2x. When you first watch a video, it may be distorted, just make the video bigger with your fingers to fit the phones screen, then it should be fine.
unzip the package. install both apk's to your phone with root explorer or file manager (im not sure if you even have to be rooted for it to work). then your all set to watch hulu. If it works for you, PLEASE HIT THANKS!
i got the modified 10.3 flash player from a thread here.
i got the hulu apk from another website.

It does work on cm7 as i am using nightly. if the video looks distorted when you first play, just adjust the hulu video player with your fingers. it worked for me.
if it works for anyone else, please post.
Is there any way the two .apk's can be attached or uploaded seperately for download? Neither astro or androzip would open any of the links I tried.
I found a hulu apk by searching the forums. Plays great. My issue is that a lot of the videos were "expired" but still showed up in search results. Other issue is that it doesn't seem to support landscape view. Kind of pointless to watch that small of a video.

download the zip to your home computer, extract, and place the 2 apk's on your sd card then install from phone. anyway, here are the links for the 2 apk's.
multiupload.com/SLQ6NYB4JX (flashplayer hulu fixed)
multiupload.com/EQY0FLJRJY (Hulu apk)
REMEMBER :::
1) If the video looks distorted on start, adjust the size of the hulu player with your fingers. you can make it any size you want. once you adjust it, you will be able to see the video.
2) If the video freezes during play, pause it then play it or go back a little bit on the video progress bar.
This does work as i have tested it. please tell if it works on other builds as i am using CM7 nightly.
multiupload.com/SLQ6NYB4JX
multiupload.com/EQY0FLJRJY
I downloaded both files from the links and downloaded them to my pc. I copied them to my internal sd card and then went to root explorer and launched each app. The hulu app installed correctly but the flash apk said failed to install? It asked me if it was ok to replace the existing flash app and I clicked ok. It went into the install and the stopped saying the install failed? Do I have to uninstall flash first and then install this one or am I missing something? Thanks!
Edit: I uninstalled the my original flash 10.3 then it installed the modded flash 10.3 without a problem! Works like a champ thank you!
Sent telepathically using the new "Mind Control" app on the market...Didn't believe it worked until I tried it myself!
Why don't I trust this? Oh well. Must be me.
I Just tried it and it dose work after uninstalling regular flash player first
All these views and no thanks? Hit the thanks button if it works for you

Problem parsing package

In trying to install the YouTube apk on my android tablet. There's a pre loaded YouTube app on it but I think its causing a problem. Every time I try to install it it says ' there was a problem parsing the package'. Can someone help?

Come on guys, this is preety general for an android problem. At least one person should have replied by now.
Sent from my Kindle Fire using XDA
Do you have the logcat of what the Package Manager said?
That error is usually caused when the download isn't complete, I.e. the file is not proper...
That said, if you were sideloading the app, and you believe that you have the complete file (.apk), then you can uninstall the original app, and place the new app in system/app, give appropriate permissions and reboot...
You need root acces for the abobe, and the method in general is referred to as the root explorer method...
Sent from my GT S5670 using xda free, (coz the premium keeps force closing :banghead: )
So I need to give it root access and then try to install the apk again but in the system app section? And to add there is this app on there called "video player" it basically functions like the Google YouTube app but not as good. But sometimes when I go to see the not-yet-installed YouTube apk on my SD card it has the "video player" icon. I don't have any problem with sideloading any other apk on there so could that be the problem?

For some reason some app doesnt work for me too, so i get problem parsing package . I used to have parsing package problem with flash player on my atrix4g then after some time i installed it and it worked good im not sure if its coz they fixed anything thro updates or it just coz i made some changes into my device i still can't download google books on it but my friend who has the same device and android version can. what im trying to say is you could try older versions of the app or if you really need it you can install custom rom , btw i can't install youtube either on my atrix i still work with an old version that came with the stock .

Generic youtube app provided by manufacturer causing OFFICIAL one to never install. *simplified*
How old is the atrix? Sounds strange if you cant even install google books. Maybe that could be a problem with the phone, not just older software.

Viki - No Ads Version 2.1.3

Hi Guys,
The new Viki forces ads in between the shows. Here's version 2.1.3 which has no ads. Just uninstall your current Viki app. Then erase the file .Viki located in your internal SD. Then install the attached apk here.
Enjoy!

You have to allow installation of unknown sources in settings. You might also want to try to insert the apk in /data/data and set permissions to -rw -r -r.
Thanks a lot, but...

THANK YOU SO MUCH. This works great, but since this is the older version how will it update for new shows? Like, if there's a new episode. Does it automatically add the new episode and subs from the newer version of Viki?
Great job

Hey guys, so I poked around on the APK and found what I had to that got rid of the super user checks and since no one has posted one in a while...I figured I'd share. I haven't tested because I don't know the login the account holder uses but it should be fine and work. If not post here and I'll work on it.

How to bypass error "This device is not compatible with your device" fix

This a a downloaded game Brothers In Arms 2 I got it from androidmob.org because 1 IT IS FREE ANYWAY here is proof:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gameloft.android.ANMP.GloftB2HM and 2 becuase I cant get it on the App Store for my device but I am getting a incompatible device error any fix for it?
Hey, your device being incompatible with the game was the reason you couldn't download it from Play in the first place. From what I know, most of the times it's either about the device's screen resolution or Android version. What device do you have and which version of Android does it run? BiA requires 2.3, so if your version is older, updating should help.
Oh, and btw. whenever you need a free app you can't download from Play for whatever reason, try googling "download apk google play" and use some online apk downloader - this way you're sure you're downloading the latest, legit version of the app.

No it did not work I was reading something about changing the device name in a config file or some crap like that how risky is that do you know. And is there something like a device emulator for android to trick the game into thinking it is on a compatible system?

is this really works?Because incompatibility is major problem in many low config devices.
You can try market helper where you can change your device and trick play store to download from any country
As well as no compatibility issues
