I know right...! Stupid $ony.... screw over all your LiveView users

No it's a successful marketing plan... forcing Liveveiw users to buy a modern xperia phone with ICS OS

It wouldn't work for me with my SmartWatch anyway, didn't even show the SmartWatch app as installed. I reverted to Liveware Manager 3.3.10.

No for me too!
I installed SmartConnect and now I can't see my LiveView in the devices! Also when I try to create an event and when I try to 'add a bluetooth device' I see my LiveView as a paired device, but cannot add it!
Even though the LiveView works through 'LiveView' app, I can't install any plugins!
When I did my check over the internet, the Sony people are saying that it works for LiveView!
Cheers!

Help

I have uninstalled "smart connect" for mistake. My phone is sony ericsson xperia pro mk16a ROOTED. I need help. When I download the app from play store an error, occur which say; "app can not be install in the default location".
Are there any way to recover this app.
With kind regards,

App not showing up after buying

Bought Rise to Glory yesterday, after I bought I got a message saying 'you will receive the app shortly' from Zune and then nothing...
I can't 'buy' it again or try to install it again because it says I already have it, but it doesn't show up on the phone anywhere. (Yes, I have looked under games)
Thank you
I think it works on a cycle. I'd hazard a guess and say you've already got it now after waiting for abit?
I usually have my phone plugged in via USB when buying from within ZUNE, which makes it pretty instant. I think i've done an "over the air" install such as yours once, but it didn't really take very long. About 5 - 10 mins.
*Edit*, sorry mis read your thread. Didn't realise you bought it yesterday.
Have you tried re installing it from the mobile marketplace? Just hit buy and it will say you already own this app and ask if you want to download it again
reply
Open the marketplace app on your phone while still plugged into the computer via the usb. a gray screen will popup and you will see something about sync complete. then your app will be on your phone.
App purchase problem

same thing I was thinking. Go to your phone and click the Xbox hub... All games should be in there, whether they be Xbox live or not. If your game isn't in there than I say contact MS.

Anyone else noticed Latitude check-ins failing, inability to edit/display/manage check-in locations? Nexus S, 2.3.3.

It is working OK with SE X10. However, neither check-in nor buzz is available in China. We have to wait for the unlocked version
Is this brut mode?
i've got blank (white) screens on checkins etc.
It's very annoying that you have to create your cache all over again every update.
Thx. for posting the apks, Google has something against letting update the Xperia Arc with them via the Market.

They also have something against HTC Desire and Cosmote Romania. I have Google Maps 5.1 installed from a third party source and it works just fine! When I go to the Market on the PC, it says This item is not available for your carrier. On the phone, it isn't displayed at all and I don't want to use Market Access. Eventually, I have installed GM 5.3 from enuazeal. Thanks.

In Estonia we have the same problem - some applications/updates are not available via market.
If you still want to use the market:
Root and use market enabler
or
Get a SIM from a country that is "good enough" in Google's eyes
My Arc is from Germany, free of any lock or branding, why it would refuse to show it I have no idea.
But the install from apk went on just fine.

Thank you mate
However it doesn't work here in Syria, I believe Google checks the IP as well
Well my excitement for this app has improved!! I'm originally from Seattle, but I'm over here in Abu Dhabi visiting my GF for about 3 weeks, and for once my GPS can finally locate me! Granted, I have to keep the phone in Airplane Mode and the GPS icon keeps doing it's little flashing (aka no lock), but at least it's showing me on the correct intersection. I have yet to see what happens if I go outside onto a completely different block, but it's progress. Now only if there was a way to make the maps actually preload onto the phone and I could use GPS outside of the houses' WiFi so I can drive around town w/o getting lost.
She has a Captivate that I've rooted and she has installed a Du (one of their cellphone providers over here) SIM card into her phone so she can make calls, but she doesn't have a data plan. I'm going to update her phone to this version of Maps and see if her GPS acts better and/or can at least locate her based on cell tower location.
is brut mode?
I'm still running 5.0. Besides the checkin's and dashboard option, is this update really worth installing?
Are you serious? Its free!!!!

Just because something is free doesn't make it good. I've found many android app updates not worth updating to because either something is broken, drastically changed, or more useless.

Thank you for the download
Hi,
how does the offline availability work? I plan to go on vecation next month and I would like to use maps navigation but I do not have any contract in the US for data connection. Can I plan my route on it and connecting with wifi and it will download all the data needed so that I can drive just fine?

[Q] Google Sound Search disabled everytime I restart the phone...

So... I really the Google Sound Search widget and I love the service a lot more than Shazam and SoundHound.
But everytime I restart the phone, the app gets disabled and I have to go to the Google Play store and activate it manually. Thing is, the app works perfectly and the Music store is available in my country. Heck, when it recognizes a song, I can even buy the song.
So... what's the problem? How do I install it permanently?
I have the same problem. Anyone gets answer to this?

There's one solution so far
Download and install Modaco Toolkit for xposed framwork. Of course you u'll need root.. And so far no donuts for Lollipop.
I have a similar problem...the widget crashes once then is broken after that. Can't get it to work at all.

Sony Smartwatch 1 compatibility with Android apps

Hello,
A few days ago I won Sony Smartwatch 1, and I don't know what to do with that device now. I don't have Sony smartphone (I use LG Nexus 4), but it won't be a problem. I'd just like to know, if apps like these available on AndroidPolice (I can't post links, for example - facebook messenger, some communication apps, GPS-supported apps etc.) designed for Android Wear will be compatible with my Smartwatch, or is it rather useless device? Maybe you've got any links to apps for that smartwatch?
Thanks!

The SW1 is useless. You can just sell it and save up and get the SW2

Thanks for your answer. In fact I don't need any smartwatch and just got it for free. I though it will run some fancy apps. That's all. Thank you :highfive:

If you already have it, just pair it with your android phone and install the necessary software for it by Sony (Smart Connect and smartwatch app) to your smartphone. Within those apps, you can actually search for the apps available for the smartwatch like gmail, call handling etc...See if they are fancy enough for you

Android TV Launcher APK

Now that Google has released the Android TV launcher onto the play store i'm curious to try and install this APK on my LG Google TV and see how it runs. Anyone know where I can find the APK?? Thanks.
http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/12/18/google-adds-android-tv-launcher-play-store/
Maybe soon on apkmirror.com!
yeah i would like to get this on my Minix Neo X7 TV box
Cant wait for this to get ported to other devices. Beelink R89 please!
Bump...
Can someone who is rooted download the APK and upload please??
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ajrsbq04s83te96/LeanbackLauncher.apk
This wasn't uploaded by me, but somebody posted the APK
Doesn't seem to work on my CM11 phone, haven't had the chance to try it on my Amlogic MXIII TV box yet.

It will not work with otner devices exept nexus box and i also think that it is too pity that it works only with some devices, i think they are mistaken with this decision.
I use Handy Smart TV Launcher (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.handysmart.android.launcher&hl=en)with its’ remote control app for my tv box and i ‘m sure that it will be the main rival for this new launcher from Google. Morover it works with a lot of mobile devices and tv-boxes and have intuitive remote control app.

What console exactly? Can you list your specs, We don't test any sonsoles yet as our apps optimized for tv-boxes. We cannot guarantee that apps will work appropriate on all devices.
Kinda surprised that nobody has been successful in hacking this to work on regular old android builds. Considering the Google play launcher from lollipop was ported to older versions of android before the play store version was updated I'd think it would be technically possible at least... Too bad I don't have the knowledge to do it myself.

Is it possible to make it work on Xiaomi Mi Box Pro?
hmm
I have it / installed running (laidbacklauncher) whatever that drop box apk was.. it installs.. and runs.. but if you click the voice seach, it crashes, and it looks like its constantly loading (recommendations) but it deffinately loaded.
(Note 2 I317m - model phone)
But i changed a setting in the system via build.prop editor changing the brand of my device to nexus where it before was T0lte (custom firmware for note 2)
i never attempted to install it prior so i dont know if it will load or not. going to see if the play store detects my phone as a nexus and allows the apk download.. (fingers crossed)
