Oh yeah! Bad memory.

I think in the standard app the layout-land folder is practically empty, so there is no reason it shouldn't work that I can see, as everything will still be referenced in the normal layout folder.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] DanMc85:
If you can remember what resources you changed here is both your own modded resources folder and the new spotify one untouched... if you can make the same mods to the new files and rezip them i can integrate them into the APK
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] sprocket87:
The modded APK is working great on my HTC One with the stock ROM. Thanks so much!!

I am having one small issue. RCP is working fine to change tracks, pause, resume, etc. But when I get a phone call while music is playing, and I answer it through my car stereo, the music pauses as it should, I have my conversation, but then when I hang up the call, Spotify resumes playback but it skips to the next track. It won't resume from the same spot the track was at when the call came in... it just skips to the next one.

Not a huge deal but kind of annoying - I don't know if there's anything that can be done in the APK to fix that.

Thanks again!
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] gloscherrybomb:
Thanks, I'll have a look. I didn't actually changes the resources, it just seems like Spotify have changed their setup in later versions.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] djwilliams100:
The first song shows the text and will not show any new track names until I stop the music and select a new track on Spotify. If I skip to the next track it shows blank.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] zeuswsu:
Thanks for the updated apk's Dan, much appreciated! For anyone having problems with reboots or anything else, try disabling Google music. I was having weird stuff going on that I tracked down to the Google music play trial. After I disabled Google play i haven't had any problems with Spotify. Google music takes over your phone which is a problem if you use other apps with metadata tags.

[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] Robkvi:
Hi - thank you for this. But It will not work for me.

I have an Berlingo 2010 and with my Iphone5 it displays track title and artist from iOS Spotify.

I have rooted my Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 and running v. 4.2.2 of Android.

When I install your Spotify app it still does not display track/artist in the display in my car.

I have tried the Bluetooth fix app and repairing many times..

Does anyone know what I can try next? It's a frustrating problem..
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] Robkvi:
Aha, will try do install a 4.1.2 ROM and test.

Thanks for your reply :good:

Last.FM Bug

I hate to do this, but I need to report that I can't enter my Last.FM credentials in the modded versions. I can tap on the user name field and the keyboard will come up, but none of the text sticks when typing into the field. This is happening on both my HTC One and Galaxy Note 2. OBTW - Spotify was just updated on June 12, 2013.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] DanMc85:
Unfortunately the Last.FM won't be fixed. That and the Facebook authentication rely on the actual Spotify signature which we have no access to which is needed to sign the application to make it Spotify official and since it isn't we have no way to do so. Your going to have to chose between that or Bluetooth metadata.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] saskwatch:
The funny thing, is I can see what I am listening to on FB with the modded client. I personally choose the metadata. Thank you so much for your reply. The only other comment I have is, Spotify has a nasty habit of not listening to and/or responding to their customers. If you got to their forums you see people asking for (the same) things, like SD card storage, etc. They never respond back as to why they won't or can't do specific features. *shrug* :rolleyes:

Do let me know if there are some tests or more info you need to figure it out.

:D
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] moelito:
Because AVRCP is not included in the BT-stack in the Kernel on the XZ. They seem to have performed some sort of hack in the Sony player to actually support it but no other media-players I tried (with AVRCP-support) seems to work.

I could of course be wrong:)

HTC One Spotify Bluetooth Metadata works!

I have always been disappointed that Android doesn't natively support Bluetooth Metadata when streaming audio. I therefore tended to stick to Samsung, as they saw fit to include the facility in many of their phones. I just bought an HTC One with the intention of returning it, if I did not get track information sent to my Nissan Leaf car audio display. I am pleased to report that it does work quite well and I am currently using the modified Spotify XDA apk with quite reliable results. I deliberately haven't put any of my own music on the phone, so the car seems to launch Spotify as the default music player.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] Try4Ce:
Spotify has been updated again with some nice bugfixes and statusbar controls. I am not good in APK modding, but would be great if the modified app gets updated. The latest modded app works great on my LG device in my KIA Ceed, all infos show up correctly in my display. A real pleasure :D

I'm really getting used to having readable info on my Bluetooth headset so when I downloaded several Audiobook players to evaluate and find the best one I discovered that none of them used Bluetooth Metadata and some of them didn't even respect the pause/skip buttons.

Anyway... after finding the best player (Listen Audiobook Player https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.acmeandroid.listen ) I contacted the author of the program and asked if he could add Bluetooth Metadata and he did... the very same day :)

Hey guys, I have been using bluetooth and Google play for audio in my car and switched to Spotify. Before this mod, no data was displayed. After this mod it shows artist title etc... But all as "unknown". So it's working but still not as intended. Any advice?
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] planetf1:
Bluetooth data is working fine for me here with the latest apk. However I cannot get simple scrobbler or scrobble droid to pick up what's being played, even if spotify is configured to share this info. Has anyone else seen the same issue? This is on an S4

Hi DanMC85

Thank you so much for modding Spotify this way! Gave you a small donation for your work :)

Just installed on stock Samsung S4 (GT-I9505) and tested in my 2013 Mazda 6 this morning - works a charm!

Now I am only missing one feature for the Spotify app on Android:

Is it possible to mod the app so Spotify becomes the default music player on the phone? Currently my stock Android music player starts when the phone connects to the car. I have to close that app and open Spotify. It would be so great if the phone could start Spotify instead when connecting to the car.

Issue with jvc kd-x50bt and verizon s4

I have the latest build of the app installed, and when I play anything in Spotify it will display the song/artist/album info for only the first song it plays. If I switch tracks manually or if Spotify just moves on to the next song in the playlist, the stereo just keeps displaying the info from the first song.

The only way to make the song info change is to leave the Spotify app, go to another audio app, and then go back to Spotify. But then it again just freezes the song info based on the first song it plays.

Anyone have any ideas?

I'm on a Galaxy S4 - Verizon running a rooted stock rom.

Stereo is JVC KD-X50BT

I need beta testers for this Rom/Mod. This Mod should be able to work on nearly any phone.

Google Voice Project Information:

Using VoIP and Google Voice text messaging, allowing free texting + calling over WiFi only. Because WiFi is everywhere now days. So why pay for a phone service, when you are able to obtain WiFi and have free texting + calling. This mod will disable your phone's radio cellular, increasing battery life, includes applications to text and call for free. This mod is for any phone without service, like something you would give your teenager, so they can call and text on without any costs to you. You must be rooted!!

What does this mod do?

Google Voice Application for Calling and texting implemented

Cellular Radio Disabled

Unneeded applications removed, like the old MMS texting app

VoIP System Ready

Many more features to come.

Download Links

Mirror 1: http://gvoice-project.googlecode.com/files/gvoiceproject.zip

Ill throw this on my 'old' S3, ive been looking to set it up as a sort of "house" phone so this should work nicely!
[Android Software Development] Eller200:
The main direction this mod is just the very thing. Make sure you do have a Google Voice Account. You can get one free at http://google.com/voice Just be sure to load the Google Voice App, There is two applications, one is the modern texting app from the Play Store, and was is an integrated VoIP app, it's from another project from Sipdroid, I am going to update the version of it as well, but after you have your google account setup with your phone, you can simply open the app and click Register PBX Account for your Google Voice, and a registry box will appear for you to setup another account. It's really simple. I hope to make a video for it later on. Also I will also include a boot animation for the phone.
[Android Software Development] ZombiQc:
Great idea! I'm definitely trying this on my old HTC Hero. Is it a complete ROM or a patch for a ROM ? Because the zip is kinda small...4mb only.
[Android Software Development] Eller200:
It's not a compete rom, in order for me to do that, I would have to work on each phone at a time.
[Android Software Development] TechnoHippie:
What is the actual name of the two apps?
[Android Software Development] Eller200:
The first app is the text messaging app, created by Google developers, and is already out on the market, at no cost.

The second app is a developer made app from a open source code for Sipdroid, I have modified the application and modified it to integrate it with the mod. So it's under Google Voice as a name.
[Android Software Development] Eller200:
I went ahead and made adjustments to the mod, it is now once again been reupdated, so if you used it already, just reload the back and do it again. I'm also going to make a uninstaller for this.
[Android Software Development] TechnoHippie:
So is the text messaging app the Google Voice app then?

Here is something to think about - and it's actually kinda a big deal to me.

One of the STUUUPID things that verizon has done to us is to strip the VOIP settings out of the native dailer. If you use any of the 3rd party ROMS (well - any of the 3rd party ROMS that are not BLUR based) - you get that feature back in the native dailer. So what would be better would be to not install the sipdroid client at all and just use the native dailer to do all this.

Believe it or not that is one of my two HUGE complaints about this phone. If you want the VOIP in the native dailer - you loose HDMI because no 3rd party ROMS support it.

Now, interestingly, my HUGE 2nd complaint is that the lapdocks totally suck and I've never had any success with any of my lapdocks/bionics getting them to actually work. Even doing a factory reset..etc etc etc - the freakn lapdocks just dont freakn work.

I guess at this point (or pretty soon anyway) I'm not going to care because when my sucky verizon contract is up in a couple of months I'm switching carriers to Sprint and getting a Galaxy Note 2. I would get it on verizon - but the stuuuupid verizon folks have locked the bootloader on it and the stuuuupid verizon doesn't have unlimited bandwith and Sprint does.

My experience with VZ has been horrific. My HDMI didn't work so they sent me a 2nd phone. I sent the first one back but they claim they never got it and charged me $600 bucks for it. To top that off the 2nd phone's HDMI doesn't work either - and the friends phone that DOES have a working HDMI still wont work with the lapdock..etc etc etc.

Basiaclly they've screwed me out of about 700 bucks and I still don't have a working unit.

Hello Guys,

I've been willing for a while to start developing for android .. I heard from many people that I need to know Java, that is OK since I'm a developer and Java was one of the courses I learned during college. But now, for android, I don't know from where to start, what tools to have

Are there any online tutorials to teach at least from where to start?

How can I create the APK file?

Finally, How to submit to the play store?
