OK a question for you all, I was looking at the market on my Samsung Galaxy S for Samsung apps and I came accross the Media Hub app, now I currently have Media Hub on my tab but that was taken from the Galaxy S but in order for it to work I needed to change the build.prop.
On the market there were 3 different Media Hub apps one for the Galaxy S, one the T-Mobile tab and one for another phone. I tired to look for it in the market from my tab but Media Hub was not listed. I went back to my Galaxy S to try and download it and try to move it to the tab via the microsd but when I download it it installs on the Galaxy S and there is no way for me to move it.
Has anyone been able to get the official Media Hub for the tab installed on the tab or is there any way to get the app found on the Galaxy S market and install it on the tab?
I hope this request is not too complicated and you guys understand. Your help is very much appreciated.

I had a functioning version of the WSJ tablet app on my AT&T Galaxy Note before I had to do a hard reset on my phone.
Apparently, the WSJ tablet app in the Google Marketplace is no longer compatible with the Galaxy Note.
I was wondering if someone had created an APK file of the WSJ tablet app (black app logo) that would work with the Galaxy Note?
I tried using the APK version that has been created for the Galaxy Tab, but it did not work properly.
I appreciate any help that members of the forum may be able to provide.
Thank you for your time, and have a great day.

I would also be very interested in this. Enjoyed it on my Xoom so missing it now.
I have just sent an email to [email protected] to see if plans to make the tab app available with the galaxy note.
Stated the phone works perfectly with FT app, Kindle and Zinio.
Doubt I will even get a response.
Search forever, finally found it. Thought I might share. It's not as nice as the version I lost from my phone, but it's workable until wsj decided to be customer friendly.
update
Actually the current wsj apk will install on the note.
Thanks tin_doan
I have just tried the Google Play store again and I still only see the China and Japan mobile apps. Where did you get the current wsj apk?
Please can you upload or is that what is in your previous post?
I want the following https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=wsj.reader_t3
What is the best way to get applications for the Tab Plus? The one thing that continues to be a thorn in my side is the limited selection of apps for this tablet. I'll see an application recommended or advertised, and hit Google Play and nothing, I'll check on my PC and see the app isn't available for my device.
I also have this problem with magazines on Amazon. The magazine works on the Fire but not the Tab Plus?
This is clearly a major problem for Android. Couldn't the apps just have an "intended for 7 inch screens" label or "intended for honeycomb"? If it works great, if not get your refund.

I have had that problem on some apps but when I installed it "in another way", it works perfectly. The "way" though is kind of illegal for some apps, but not for free ones.
Last version of Ustream app don't work, always show server error when try to watch a video.
Also last stumpleupon app is kind of buggy.
Wat abt apps if we install as apk. Does tat work for backward compatible appa??

Could please give more information about changing build.prop? I wanted to buy Order and Chaos but it is not supported in Google Play. If i change build.prop can safely buy it and not lose anything if i change build.prop back?

ok you must root your tablet if havent so; look for the details of tablet that has similar properties as the tab+ such as the tab 7.7 or the galaxy s2; and change the following (if using the 7.7)
ro.product.model=GT-P6800
ro.product.brand=samsung
ro.product.name=GT-P6800
ro.product.device=GT-P6800
btw order& chaos game shows as purchasable.... not sure what would happen if you switch back i haven't; don't see the need.

Thanks, i dealt with this problem easier. Went to gameloft site and bought O&C there (is it cheaper to buy it there anyway) and just chose P6800 as my device. Installed the game, runs without problems. Just in case anyone wants to buy O&C.
OK, so now that I have Android 4.0.4 ICS on my shiny Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus, Samsung has the Kiescast for Tablets app in the Google Play App Store that requires Android 4.0 or up, "BUT", it is telling me that 'THIS ITEM IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH YOUR DEVICE'. Really??? A 'FREE' Samsung app for Tablets isn't available for my Samsung Tablet??? Come on Samsung!!!
Anyone else able to get the Samsung Kiescast for Tablets app? And for that matter, what 'tablets' is this app 'compatible' with? Letme guess, Asus, LG, Motorola, or Sony??? :cyclops:
I see exactly the same problem. When I go to Google Play via browser, it says "incompatible with all your devices." When I search in the Play app on the Tab, Kiescast won't appear in the search results no matter what search strings I use.
I was able to get a copy of the Kiescast app phone version and it installs and runs fine so far on the Tab 7 Plus except I had to use the Samsung Keyboard which came with my Samsung 8.9 tablet to get into the 'Menu' of this version of the Kiescast app so that I could get into settings of the Kiescast app since it didn't display the menu button on the screen.
I just noticed a rating post on the Play store that it apparently is available to the 10.1 Tablet. Now I just need to find someone with that tablet so I can bum a copy to see if it works on the Tab 7 Plus.
Well, got the ICS update for my 8.9 Samsung tab and the Kiescast for Tablet was available for it in the Play store. Sideloaded it onto the 7.0 Plus and it doesn't work. Screen resolution problem big time. Looks like the phone version of Samsung Kiescast is the only way to go for this app.

This thread is no longer needed. As of May 20, 2014, Peel has released their version of the Smart remote for most phones. It shows up in the Play Store for the Galaxy S4 GPE.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tv.peel.app
If you cannot download this app or any other preferred app, use the following URL:
http://apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader/
Background:
Sometime shortly after the release of Android 4.3 (not 4.4), Peel stopped supporting our GPe model with this app. I've emailed them repeatedly, but their customer support is...challenged. Literally all they will do is email you back and suggest that you email their customer support... So now we need to take it upon ourselves to ensure that this useful app works on our device. I will use this thread to maintain current working versions for our device.
Samsung WatchOn (Galaxy S4):
-Samsung WatchON 6.4.4 - supplied and hosted by jaykresge
-Samsung WatchON 6.4.2 - supplied and hosted by jaykresge
-Samsung WatchON 6.2.6 - supplied and hosted by dong2007
Samsung WatchOn (Galaxy S5):
-Samsung WatchON 1.2.00.92 - supplied and hosted by jaykresge
Ongoing Request:
If at anytime the Play Store version is newer than what we have available for side loading, I request that someone with a supported Touchwiz variant of the Galaxy S4 download and extract the APK and PM me a link. After I verify that it works on the S4 GPE, I will post a download link for other users, giving credit to the person who extracted it.
Finished testing 6.4.2. It works and is now uploaded.
Of note is that it has a new UI that matches Touchwiz on the S4. Interface is also smoother and more responsive. Old version will be left up for those who prefer the older UI. However, it is my intent to maintain older releases anyway.

The watch-on app had a great update that supports Air-Conditioner remotes (AC) But with the Galaxy S5 version, the AC is gone, any way to fix it, or they just removed it?

You'll have to ask that on the Galaxy S5 forums. This is a Galaxy S4 thread on a Galaxy S4 forum. I only posted a link to the Galaxy S5 version as a reference (so users here don't search "Samsung WatchON" on Google Play, find the S5 version, and tell me that my links are outdated).
If we find that the S5 version works on the S4, I'll check into that for you in the future. But for now, best to post your question on the S5 forums.

I have an S4 I9505 and I have the S5 WatchON because I flashed a rom which included some note-3 or S5 apps (not sure).
The S5 WatchON has a new changed UI but it doesn't have the same features as the old watchON and I just wondered why did they remove the AC remote feature.

That's something that you'll have to ask the developer. Forgive me for not being able to help with this.
The s5 Version works an my s4!

Does anyone have an issue where it says "Default string" in the notification bar?
Added the S5 version as a download. Please note that I had constant force closes when attempting to use it on the S4 Google Play Edition.
It seems the S4 version is no longer on Google Play. Can anyone else confirm? My link is dead and it's no longer listed under Peel's apps. However, Peel's website is now showing a smart remote app for a phone, which I'm aware of them having in development for awhile now. It's still unreleased at the moment.
6.4.4 hosted, minor update.
As of May 20, 2014, Peel has released the app for the Galaxy S4 GPE and many other phones. It's a universal app using the same core features as their Touchwiz variants with a more neutral interface.

In that case, use the URL that I linked you, and try all three. Use the one that you prefer.
ok, this is weird. when i first saw this post, the samsung app store showed 5/19 for the release date of version 14032701.2.00.92. now it is showing 5/29 (2 days ago) --- for the same version number?!? is there a new version, or not?
i'm on the verizon galaxy note 3. the s5-friendly variant of watchon (which i prefer) isn't available in any stores and neither is the official peel smart remote. :grr:
thanks also... i was able to use the apk in the op and it worked, just trying to keep it current. someday it will be available to all.
