I installed Spotify on my Nexus today and whenever I try to listen to a song I just get a "INFO" box that is blank. I checked the settings and it's configured to sync over 3G and Wifi, but not 4G. Could that be an issue?

This is the first time using spotify so im not sure if thats a new issue or if I misconfigured
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Denniz0229:
turn 4g of on your phone and try again.

it should work fine, the app is ICS compatible
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DroidHam:
how do I turn off 4G, and why dont they make it work on 4G =D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brownat:
I would uninstall and reinstall the spotify app. I play music over 4g all the time. The syncing options are for syncing your playlists offline so they don't effect how your stream music.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kobayashidk:
+1 for reinstalling Spotify.

That did it for me
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DroidHam:
Is it possible to do this:

Tag a song I hear in the car with Shazam

Use the option to listen in spotify

download the song to my phone over spotify

set the download directory to my google music folder so it automatically syncs with my home pc?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fdm1:
When you download music in spotify, you don't actually get an mp3...spotify keeps it separate so that it's available to listen to offline through spotify, but isn't available to distribute (anti-piracy measures). It's also how they assure you keep paying for spotify (you can't keep an offline song for more than 30 days without "checking in" to spotify by going online.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DroidHam:
that sucks! Any good apps to actually pull down the mp3?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shlomey:
Random Reboots?

Has anyone else experienced random reboots while listening to Spotify?

I have synced a large number of playlists for offline play (over 4G), but now almost half the time I am using Spotify my GNex does a reboot at some point while listening to Spotify music.

I haven't verified if this issue deals with local (non streamed) music in general, because I only have a handful of local MP3s stored on the phone (was planning on using Spotify for most of my music needs). To be clear, this is not a streaming issue - all of the tracks and playlists I am listening to have already been synced to the phone.

Any thoughts? Suggestions?

Am I the only one experiencing this . . . ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] javroch:
This whole post is kind of nonsensical because you don't have access to the Spotify music as an mp3 and there's no such concept as setting a "download directory" in Spotify. As well, Google Music on your phone won't ever upload music to sync with the cloud. The only music that gets synced/uploaded to the cloud is through the Music Manager application on your desktop computer. The Google Music app is simply for accessing / playing the music / making them available offline.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DroidHam:
I didnt realize you cant save the mp3s,i guess if i could i could "save" them to my dropbox account which would sync them to my own desktop. I was hoping to be able to hear a song in the car, tag it with shazam, download and have it on my home computer. Ah well

I was able to use Amazon App store to get the daily free apps outside of the US until last week with US address and credit card sign in, but now I cannot any longer. I get that because of my geographical location I cannot purchase an app. I have to be using a US based IP in order to download. This is new and I will be greatfull if there is any info regarding this "problem"
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blueseeker:
works here, just downloaded Sound Sleep Deluxe

did you used market enabler to set one US operator ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elena11:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IakobosJ:
Works here in the UK for me, just downloaded an app :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elena11:
I honestly have no idea why. On the phone an tablet I have - Purchase started and after User authenticated and the purchase cancels. On the computer I get -

We are sorry...

We could not process your order because of geographical restrictions on the product which you were attempting to purchase. Please refer to the terms of use for this product to determine the geographical restrictions.

I did cerate a new account with US address, set the one click setting, and still nothing. Is there anybody else from Canada having the same problem?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FallenOut:
so its just not me havin this issue

i cant seem to download any more apps the last few days

updatin still no problem

just cant dl any more apps
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolbuddyin:
Me too has same problem

It worked since last week,now its not

I'm from India
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elena11:
The same thing here regarding the updates. May be we can spoof the IP on a computer and buy them from amazon.com straight. After that just install them on the phone or tab.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elena11:
It worked. I downloaded Hotspot Shield and faked my IP on the computer. Signed -in in Amazon.com with my computer and got the free app for the day (Sound Sleep). After just used the amazon appstore on my phone and downloaded and installed it the already "purchased" app. It works for now.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simuur:
@elena

Thanks worked for me :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aasoror:
Just tried it on my PC, its not working, still getting the same message, and apparently for some reason amazon.com is still detecting I am in Canada (I get the "shopping from Canada banner").

Strange that hotspotshield is indeed working (verified my IP using several methods and even got region locked hulu to work without a problem).

Any insights ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bra2006:
It didn't work for me (although I guess it should have), maybe because I tried to logon without the proxy first and it flagged my account somehow? Even in Chrome's Anonymous it didn't work. Also checked my ip and hotspot shield was working.

It was fine 'till some days ago, with almost 200 free apps downloaded.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Use a US based proxy & set this in your browser settings.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcddcjjcd:
Use VPN

You can set up and account with a free VPN server in the USA and then start that before going to the Amazon site. The SGS2 can also use the VPN you set up so that you can get there from the phone also.

Regards,

John.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crussader:
yeah... you can use RaptorVPN... you can configure it on your phone and then download the apps.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevenfackley:
This was my first rom i flashed and i have never had problems with it. I ended up upgrading to S7 liked it but tried out mosaic 8 I lost all my market links so I tried every thing you can think of to get them back. I cleared the data, force stop and reboot, used the market doctor, wiped back to stock and nothing continued to work. Wiping back to stock mosaic worked untill i rebooted and it went back to nothing. This was so frustrating I decided to flash back to S6.4 because I never had problems with it. I flashed it and restored my apps with titanium and no market links. I reflashed it and individually downloaded each app and they were in my apps untill I rebooted my phone. Tried the exact same steps as with Mosaic and I got nothing.

I just saw this yesterday i've done a fresh install of the latest firmware from official site and just realized that my battery is discharged so i plugged my Archos 70 Internet Tablet to the charger and left it charging one night and yesterday when i just unplugged it and started my tablet showed me just 97% charged :confused:.Has anyone got the same problem?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jfmcbrayer:
Your battery gauge is lying to you (and it's not such a bad thing).

Basically, all modern device battery gauges are inaccurate/deceptive in one way or another. The manner in which Archos' battery gauges are inaccurate/deceptive seems to possibly vary between firmware versions, leading to much wailing and gnashing of teeth on the forums over probably illusory battery drain "bugs".

What I want to know is whether it's possible to reset battery stats, and if so, how?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] gaww:
Just heard on CNN - the deal is dead. They nade the announcement and then said deals latter.

Opps - ? rather then & in title...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Core Memory:
Yes, the deal between ATT and T-Mobile is totally dead, killed by the U.S. Justice Department's anti-trust lawsuit. T-Mobile, which is owned by Deutsche Telekom, gets $3 Billion plus some spectrum from ATT as compensation for the deal not going through. Deutsche Telekom wants to sell T-Mobile and isn't investing any more money in it and won't upgrade the network's high speed capabilities which will cause it to lose customers as they switch to other networks to get higher speed data services. T-Mobile will also not be getting the iPhone which will also deprive it of new customers and cause it to lose customers. In spite of the positive spin Pilipp Humm, the CEO of T-Mobile, has promoted "We have an opportunity to write our own future" T-Mobile is in serious trouble.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Beggars1923:
The next suitor will be Sprint - not sure if that is better or worse for TMO customers.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GTWalling:
May not be that way.

"Now that the merger has failed, it’s unlikely T-Mobile could court Verizon or Sprint as potential suitors because they use completely different cellphone technologies to service their phones, Mr. Kuittinen said.

He said that T-Mobile must now explore more creative opportunities — for instance, seeking partnerships with media giants like Amazon, Facebook or Google. T-Mobile’s spectrum, not its customer base, is its most valuable asset."

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spitfire:
Does T-Mo have poor service/reception in a lot of areas? It's fine where I live and the price is great, I hope it sticks around for a while. Verizon charges SO much for their plans :(
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
I have great signal too, or I did before I got the G2X lol... but seriously - I think T-Mobile's "bad reception" compared to other carriers is a complete myth perpetuated by those who feel the need to defend their decision to spend more, and by those who believe that just because they pay twice as much for their cell service that it guarantees them better service. In the "real world" I've seen as many times that I had signal and verizon/at&t customers did not as I have the other way around.

T-Mobile signal is ****ty I am sorry. It depends on location. I lived in Milwaukee WS and its best signal hands down. I moved back to NJ and its same ****ty signal I endured for 10 years.

I have to rely on wifi and if not for that, I have no signal.

T-Mobile signal is ****ty. Again, depends on location. My time in Milwaukee, I was shocked how awesome signal is there.

Again depends on location.

Its where I live, dead zone. Sucks!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fabricatedhero:
Yah well instead if this Att should of lobbied to have congress mandate sharing of cell phone towers no matter the carrier who built it. So this way ATT can stop complaining like a girl.

That's what other countries do and their prices dropped and network coverage grew.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JaiaV:
but...but...that would create a fair and competitive market that served the customer! Are you mad?!

Seriously though, the carriers in the US (aside from T-Mobile, who have actually lobbied to get something like this to happen), would HATE this. It would require they actually step up to serve their customer rather than just their shareholders.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jeremyritzmann:
The fact is that most companies are blind to what ACTUALLY serves their shareholders. By stepping up to serve their customers, they also step up to serve their shareholders. The fact is that consumers would FLOCK to a Google based cell provider. Google follows a simple model. Take care of their consumers by offering a "low cost" offering then exploiting that for moderate ad shares, and also (most importantly) trying to build upon that offering by moving consumers to their other offerings by true "integration", thereby "owning the house" generating quadruple the original marketshare generating BILLIONS in additional revenue, ie share holder profits. If someone beats Google to the punch on this model in the mobile communications market, they stand to make a MASSIVE profit. Companies simply over complicate economics/marketing.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] JaiaV:
We are pretty much in agreement, my post was more than a bit tongue-in-cheek. I'm a big fan of moving to the way most of Europe does their cell phones:

1. Usually the government owns the towers and the cell providers lease those towers in order to provide the actual services to the customer. This helps to remove the problem of technology and coverage divisions that cell companies have in the US and is one of the main reasons switching carriers is far easier there.

2. No annual contracts. US customers are spoiled on the false idea that their smartphones are 'free' or <$200 when in actuality they are paying out of the nose for vastly over-inflated contracted plans that are anywhere from double to triple that of any cell service in Europe in order to subsidize their phones. This isn't helped by the fact that it seems the public can't get over the idea that paying $400-600 for the full price of the phone would amount to them saving thousands of dollars over a couple of years, even if they bought another phone during that time. Another factor that makes switching carriers easier and helps promote competition on a service level. Also, not subsidizing phones means that carriers lose less money buying up phone stock they never sell (and have to make up by making the contracts more expensive and charging for stupid things like tethering!).

3. Well I guess I kind of ate up all of my points in the first two by elaborating a bit too much.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] moeahmad1995:
Um I seen somewhere that dish is looking into it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spitfire:
+1, Tmobiles value plan is at least $25/month cheaper than the regular one, which amounts to $600 over the 2 year contract. I know I've never gotten a $600 phone for free.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
Unfortunately most people can't do basic math and still opt for the $250 phone and Classic (non-value) plan. In effect paying hundreds of dollars more over the life of the contract. Back when the Even More Plus first rolled out I still worked at tmo tech support and you'd be surprised how many people were absolutely livid that they couldn't get a discounted phone after being a customer for X years, AND have the Even More Plus... they thought they were being ripped off by being asked to pay for the phone.

Honestly, the failure of the American cell phone consumer to be able to do BASIC MATH is one of the reasons T-Mobile is failing. I have friends who honestly believe that Verizon gave them a better price.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jeremyritzmann:
Its beyond them doing basic math. Our culture in the US is always about the short term when comes to saving money, never the long term. Interest only mortgages is a PRIME example of that. No pun intended.

hi 1st off sorry if this has been posted, i have had a quick look but could see anywhere.

i dropped my DHD and the screen smashed. i can still use the phone and have been for some months now. i have a screen protector on it or the glass would have fallen out. i am looking at getting it fixed but ive been quoted between £50 - £100. i have looked on ebay and can find a digitizer for £20 and found a video on youtube to follow.

before i buy the digitizer off ebay i just want to be sure that it is the digitizer that is smashed not the lcd but im not sure.

thanks in advance
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwraggcan:
It's the digitizer.

Sent from my Motorola Startac running Atari 2600 software!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kent_99:
be very careful , i wouldn't recommend this operation to somebody without experience.

The lcd is glued to the frame and is very hard to remove it, you need a lot of patience, and after that you need to unglue the digitizer form the LCD, another risky operation.

If you succeed probably the bezel that surrounds the LCD will be bent and ugly and the digitizer won't be flush with the housing, you need to reapply glue so it will stick well to the LCD.

Talking from experience....

and btw the quotes your getting are ranged between £50 - £100 because they'll probably just replace the whole LCD+digitizer assembley
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahall1988:
cheers i have taken your advice on board and i think im gonna have a look for a digitizer and lcd display online see if i can get that cheaper than the shops.
