[Q] Polaris Office apk

Can someone please put up an apk for Polaris Office that works. I found one in a forum thread but it doesn't work. I lost the version that came stock with my G2x when I flashed to CM 7.
Thanks much in advance.

Fresh out of TB!

Thanks a lot

I installed the polaris apk but every time I try to open a word document or pdf it crashes, can somone tell me how I can fix this.

Did you install it to system?

Did you fix permissions after installing?

@ regp No, how do you do that?

I also had this issue... The secret it the app is looking for two libraries in /system/lib, they are: libPDMaster.so and libPDMaster_Clipboard.so. So the install is:
1. install DocMaster.apk
2. make /system/lib r/w
3. copy libraries: libPDMaster.so and, libPDMaster_Clipboard.so
4. make /system/lib r/o

Sorry, but I don't see these two files?

Getting Polaris Office to Work
You can find the files in the one of the official T-Mobile ROMs in the system/lib folder.

can somebody supply us with the 2 files separately cause it takes time for me to download 500MB for 2 small files.
thanks.

this one worked on my rezound, which doesn't have those lib files.
This one is for ICS:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21735653&postcount=674
but might work for GB as well. If not, pm me and I'll post the gb one from my stock rom.

Download "Bloater G2x". Goggle it if you do not understand. It was created by a great xda dev. Works every time. Be sure to thank the people that created it.

Or if there's still anyone out there that's needing the polaris apk, you can always just get adobe reader from the market. Has always opened every PDF file I've ever tried.

Is that a complete install that puts the files where they need to be, or does one separately need to obtain the two library files?

Pardon my ignorance but I've never used Polaris... can someone tell me what this app does?

It's a document reader

Propably, give it a try and report back, but the voicesearch does not work asof now only manual input

Opening search works, but gives popup: network error. Also, voice search gives FC. This is on CM9 latest nightly

I changed my build.prop, then I put velvet.apk in /system/app with the right permissions, rebooted, changed build.prop back and rebooted once more.
Voila, no more network error

You are right but if i believe everything what a dev provide than i would NOT have this great app fully function on my STOCK BASED ROM ( not aosp ore cm9 ) so change op please.

Can't wait until all the features of this apk is working and the paranoid team implements it into their rom!

Playstore update . 3.9.16

Hi all heres the latest google playstore
3.9.16
Download: http://beta.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390135922294521859
Google just started rolling out an updated Google Play Store version 3.9.16 that follows the previous version 3.8.17 from August. Good news, everyone - we've already got our hands on the APK for you to install manually thanks to our loyal tipsters.
What's New
The most notable and immediately apparent new feature is the long overdue ability to remove apps you've previously downloaded from the All Apps list. If you like to try a lot of apps, that list is likely very cluttered. With the new Google Play, you can trim it to your heart's content.
Update #1: You can multi-select by long-pressing any app in the list and then tapping more apps, then delete them all in one go (added 2 new screenshots demonstrating it).
Update #2: The new Play Store now keeps track of your location in lists, including My Apps and All Apps, so when you click into an app and back, it drops you into the same spot. I had variable luck with this, and it didn't seem to work in All Apps at first, but I just reproduced it on both the EVO LTE and the Nexus 7. Brilliant.
Update #3: The notification icon that shows up when you have app updates has changed, and notifications are now expandable. I've added more screenshots showing the differences.
The size of the Play Store APK actually went down, so Google must have trimmed some extra fat. We're still digging through everything
Thanks androidpolice

Finally! I wonder though.. will it decrease app download amounts? Obviously if people remove it, it wasn't something they liked..

What happens if you have the same Google account on 2 devices and have an app on 1 but not the other and you remove the app from the device that doesn't have the app installed?
What happens if you delete a purchased app? Do you have to pay for it again if you want to re-install it later?

Can't answer the first one, but I just uninstalled a paid app to test for you. When I searched afterwards, it shows up as a purchased app, so I think you'll be good on that front.

I'm on paranoid android 2.2 rom on my Nexus 7, I have gapps ending in "26" installed, which I believe are the gapps from August, and installing this gives me an error message "conflicting signatures".....I don't even have the play store under "downloaded" apps like you would normally find it, but it is under the "all" tab. It was suggested that I rename the apk to "phonesky" and copy it to system/apps, I don't even see "phonesky" anywhere in the files, it's not on my Nexus 7. Can someone please help me out of the know what I can do to get this installed? It's so baffling that a simple apk won't install.
I would appreciate any help at all. Thank You.

Anyone else have this replace their existing camera and gallery, even though Gallery2.apk is still in system/app along side the new one? Folks at android central stated it resulted in both apps appearing in the drawer?

Yes, but I want my Gallery2 to work, as the CM10 camera has many enhancements this camera is missing.
BTW, newest patched camera has working sphere without build prop mods but it does get pretty toasty while in use.
EDIT: As people have stated in the AP thread, video doesn't seem to work for me.
EDIT 2: Take that back. Video works after setting to 1080P.

Me too. If somebody can fix it, it'll be really helpful.
To stop force closes, all you have to do is put the library files(make space in system and put library flies from normal jb gapps. ) in /system /Lib
But after that, there won't be force closes, but network automatically disconnects.
Can you use Skype? ?

Hmm, then it's no use to try changing the libs.

Sorry mate, no longer using Jellybean. I have switched back to ICS. But i do remember i used to get incoming calls without any FCs, i did not answer those calls, so i do not know if it really works or not.
