Hello, after updating the firmware on my PRO LTE version, I noticed the following:
- There seems to be a new app called "Play Movies & TV". It seems to be an app to buy and then play Movies and TV. Am I right? Any good point in using it?
- I noticed a new app called "GALAXY Apps". I supposed it is an app to suggest apps for the Note PRO.
Other than these, I don't see any noticeable changes. Do you?

Google Play Store update for non-US. They started setting Shows and Films in Google Play for Non-US users. It would've appeared in the Play Store update, not the firmware update.

New name for the Samsung App store. Applies to all Samsung devices since 1 Juli: http://www.sammobile.com/2014/07/10...ename-samsung-apps-to-galaxy-apps-on-devices/
Neither are related to a firmware update
Thanks. Do you know what have been changed in Firmware updates? I don't see any differences...
Any chance to get the firmwareupdate on a rooted device? OTA does not work
THX!

Samsung doesn't release a changelog, so I have no idea. (nor have I updated.) it's usually just bugfixes and such.

Enable Survivor mode/root keeper in the superuser or supersu app, temp disable root, OTA it and re-enable Root.
Or of you're not intending to keep Root or re-root, flash using ODIN.

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!

Hmmm.
Maybe this package is for Honeycomb & ICS.

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
Parse error in gb
Via My HTC Evo 3D On The Now Network From Sprint.
Yesterday, my Googple Play Store was automatically updated from v3.4.7 to v3.5.15.
Since the update, the app doesn't say anymore if there's an update available for my apps (in previous version no problems with that).
On my Galaxy Tab, I still have v3.4.7 and most of my apps installed on my Note are also installed on my Tab; I received already several updates on my Tab, but NO mentions on my Note that there are updates available!
I deleted already the "buffer" of the app in the Applications-menu; when doing this, the updates are visible in v3.5.15, but when new updates come available -> NO mention of it!
I think, it's not the way when I want to see if updates are available, I've to clear the buffer everytime...!
Is there a solution for this, or do I've to wait for the next update of the Google Play Store?
If you have tittanium backup try Market Update Helper from google play.
Maybe it helps.

Hm...Thats a small problem....
So, you cant do anything more except clearing google play's cache/data mister.
And its a strange problem especially for a stock firmware.
Maybe another guy have a better idea.
I now see, that after the update my Market Updater is gone! (see screenshots Note & Galaxy Tab)
The same also happened on my HTC Desire HD: the Market Updater there is also 0b now after the 3.5.15-update!
Google updated the play store to a newer version with a complete new ui!
Get it now.
Note : The start up page with suggestions and stuff might not work until play store is officially updated in the country you live in.
Install as a normal app.

Hey just wanted to know since we typically update apps when it shows on playstore would there be any issues for getting updates using this unreleased ver? especially our purchased apps? & also when it would be released as an update officially? Any way to revert back without any side effects just in case?

There won't be any issues with updating the app. ( I'm not sure about paid apps, but they should be fine too I guess) They are rolling it out at some places, it will be available to everyone soon.
And follow what altered said to remove it.
After latest update/flash to PA3.15 I got the new market after a couple reboots. :thumbup:

new play store is great, at first i hated the white UI so decided to find an inverted one and it looks way better than original app , some screenshots below

If you don't want to have to deal with downloading this and installing the apk, you can get it to update on its own by going to manage apps then play store services, and then clearing the data. After you have done that, open up the play store and it will have updated on its own.
Anyone have a link to download the inverted version?

I found one, but for some reason it just FCs on my phone. Its a CWM flashable zip.
Try if it works for you. http://db.tt/dMlJzMzX
Or just google for it. There are many sites offering it.
you need to unnistall play store's updates, then go and delete any play store files from within /data/app folder then place downloaded Phonesky.apk inside system/app folder if prompt say yes on replace file , if not , delete vending.apk ,set permissions , reboot and enjoy , just disable all internet connections during that process
Edit : found it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1231787
Edit2: follow my directions flashable zip doesn't work for us, extract phonesky.apk from zip file

Sorry for the hurried response.
There are a handful of reasons why app is incompatible.
1) android version - some apps are not compatible with android versions .updating your android version will work .
2)hardware -let's say that I want to shoot a 360 panorama. But my device has no gyromerter ,so I may get incompatible or they may let me download but the app won't work perfectly.
3)geo restrictions- some apps cannot be installed in some country or the app hasn't been released yet for that country. Enabling proxy and changing your location may or may not work.
Now for by " already did it " you mean you already installed then good for you.
But keep in mind that cm11=KitKat that is android4.4.x
Using cm11 don't mean that your device is updated there is still cm12/12.1(lollipop) cm13(marshmallow).
If you want more help cite the app you want installed and I'll go over the device requirement.
PS:if the problem is geo restrictions ,then using apps like tunnelbear,market helper and searching for the app in chrome store may help

Thank you Osman34, I even tried the same version as the one I have already installed and also couldn't install it. Now the question is how Samsung will update the app it they're willing to do so?! I think the only way then is with system update which is wired way to go with.
yeah kinda like that
