adb shell su -c "pm install -r /system/app/Vending.apk"? How do I do that?

We All Know The Amazon Appstore Has A Huge Selection When It Comes To Music, Movies, And Books, The Same Cannot Be Said For Apps.

Despite The Fact That The Kindle Fire HD Is An Android Based Tablet It Doesn’t Officially Have Access To The Google Play Store.

We Also Know We Can Sideload Apps But It’s Much Nicer To Have The Google Play Store App On Your Kindle Fire HD.

I'll Show You How To Install And Setup The Latest Version Of The Google Play Store.

Just Follow This Easy Step By Step Instructions

Step By Step Instructions:

- Step 1: First Download All Of The Following Files:

- If You Don't Have Any File Explorer You Can Download One From The Amazon Appstore (I Reccommend Using ES File Explorer, It's The Better One).

- Step 2: Then Transfer All Of Them To The Kindle Fire HD.

- Step 3: Go To ES File Explorer, Go Into 'Tools' >'Root Explorer' >'Mount R/W' And Set Both To 'RW'.

- Step 4: Now You Can Just Install (In That Order):

Or You Can Copy Those Files To system/app Folder (Without The Google Play Services App, Intall That One).

- Step 5: Reboot Your Device.

- Step 6: Now Copy The To system/app Folder (Copy It). Then Tap The Vending.apk And Replace It.

- Step 7: Reboot Your Device Once Again.

- Step 8: At This Point You Can See The 'Android Market' App In The 'Apps Drawer'. Now You Can Just Open The App And Set Your Account, Or Update To Google Play Store.

- Step 9: Updating To Google Play Store. Search For You Downloaded, Tap To Install And Replace It.

- Step 10: Reboot Your Device.

You're Done!

Now You Can Enjoy Those Apps, Music, Movies, And Books From The Google Play Store. Your 7" Kindle Fire HD Just Got Better.

Enjoy And Be Sure To Let Me know If You Have Any Issues Or Questions

This is working for Kindle Fire hdx Thor (3rd gen) 4.5.5.1 w/ Superuser but instead of System/App. I had to Install them to System/Priv-app (Goople Play services separate as instructed) and instead of replacing vending.apk, I had to remove it, move the original back in and install it from system/priv-app. Reboot, sign into Google. Update it with the downloaded apk and reboot. All is working perfectly.

I then installed the latest Google Play Store (newest) and I can confirm it is still working perfectly.

Update: I had to reboot once the first time and update superuser.

Someone please help me... I am rooted with kingroot. I followed all steps to install google play store. When I got to the market I went ahead to login... Once I put login info in, it went to a white screen like it was trying to load and stayed that way for 30 minutes. I went back to the post and it said you could skip step and go straight to install play store. I followed the next steps and came back in. When I try to open the play store it says "error retrieving information from server rh-01

Just an FYI, my girls have 2 Fire HD7 4th gens. They are running Fire OS 5.1.2.

Before you login to the playstore, sign into your Google account via a web browser and enable 2 step verification. You can disable it after you once you get signed in.

I have the same tablet, same OS. Can you briefly describe what you did. I am unclear about the vending.apk. After using the original method, which fails, did you manually remove that vending.apk from system/apps, copy the downloaded one to system/priv-app and install it from there? Wasn't sure what you meant by the original vending.apk in system/app as that isn't in FireOS.

Well.. even tho play store loads, logs in, even downloads apps.. in the background it updates google play services, which that alone causes it to constantly crash on the play services.

Any idea why my phone runs out quicker when using power saving mode? With power saving mode on, 17 hours with 4.5 hours screen on. Yesterday 1d 8h 5 hours screen on with power saving off.

Using cleanrom ace and adam kernel 2.5
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skwerl23:
It could be the kernel? Power save mode is nothing compared to a well built tasker profile or two. Or even a good CPU profile.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mat9v:
Maybe you have used your phone differently on those days? More screen on time? With higher brightness? Maybe the tasks you did were more battery draining (other games, video recording.... or something else...). Battery saver mode sets max cpu frequency [MENTION=322487]1000[/MENTION]Mhz and that's it. If you check what is draining battery in your phone you will see that at times (full brightness) the screen eats up to 70% of energy so the savings from cpu are negligible.

Hello I am looking to get the 7.7 tab but then I noticed this one is almost 2 years old now. I want it to work on the Verizon network like this does. I have searched all over and cannot find anywhere that says if Samsung will be releasing an updated version. Does anyone possibly know?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
The only model thus far with JB released is the P6800 (SEA firmware). It's been sadly 2 months since, and no other model, including my P6810 has a JB update (for any region). Many are losing hope....

But to answer your question directly, I have not seen any information anywhere for JB update for any model except P6800. I search on almost a daily basis. No one knows. :(
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whitehawk66:
Yeah, it does seem like you are in for a long wait for an official update from Samsung for a Verizon 7.7.

It would appear your best bet would be to install a customs ROM for Jellybean.

I'd recommend this one and you may wish to read up on it to determine if the update would work on the device on the Verizon network. I believe it does.

Never use benchmarks to judge speed, they're completely inaccurate. If your device actually feels slow then try backing up your data then reflashing the ROM. If you're underclocking your phone, try leaving it on the normal settings and seeing if performance improves.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThoriumPrime:
Thank you for an extremely useful forum, with an exceptionally competent and helpful group of devotees.

I bought a Galaxy Note 2 LTE (GT-N7105) in the middle east where I live. I travel a bit, so I used in about half a dozen European and middle eastern countries. However, I found myself unable to register on the network in Norway. Phone was completely stock at this point, only ever having received an OTA update from Samsung.

SIM card works fine in other phones, in Norway.

Operator confirms that IMEI is not blocked on their network. IMEI searches in publicly available databases indicates the same.

After having this issue about 3 times, it started to really annoy me and my clients. I decided to do something, or at least REALLY screw it up.

Rooted phone.

Used CWM ROM manager to back up phone, flashed newer modem.

Installed XXDME4 modem. Discovered that I could no longer read my SIM card, and that my EMEI number was gone.

Realized that the CWM RM backups did not contain EFS.

Panicked.

Flashed a stock ROM from SAMfirmware XXDMC3

Got my IMEI back. Phone did lose its serial number, but I think I can live without that.

Unpanicked.

Switched to TWRP, and did a proper backup. TWRP team, great job! This tool is fantastic, I can restore from my SD card in a matter of seconds, and get back to where I was exactly. Sweet!

Tried various kernels and modems. Results ranging from "status quo" to "hosed EMEI." Currently restored back to XXDMC3.

Assumed it was something obscure wrong with my SIM card, so I bought a local SIM card from one of the biggest service providers i Norway. (NETCOM) No luck, everything was still the same.

Had the huge realization today that DATA is WORKING, and could be enabled even if the phone reported not being registered. So it really is registered on the network, just not allowing voice calls to go through. Who would have thunk?

Currently the phone is alternating between "Not registered on network" to "No Service" Setting network selection to manual will usually lead to the former, setting it to automatic will usually lead to the latter. Attempting to call will lead to "Mobile Network Not Available."

My intuition tells me perhaps this is related to CSC, some parametric setting rather than being a problem with a modem or kernel. I could be wrong.

Helpful comments and suggestions are welcome. I will keep updating this thread so that others can learn from my misfortune.

Hi all

Just thought I'd let you know (in case you didn't already) you made the right choice!

I've been using the S4 since release now and I've just got the HTC One to "try" it and I feel like I've been robbed, robbed of precious time with the amazing HTC!

I can't think of one thing that the S4 does better, I use the IR remote ALL the time on the S4 and thought it was amazing apart from the fact it had to be pointed directly at the IR receiver on both my TVs but thought I couldn't ask for much more since it's just a "phone" ... How wrong was I?! The One is amazing,I hardly even have to point it at the tv and the built in tv guide is so much cleaner

The other thing that blew me away was I went to take some photos of my car (first car haha) came back and started looking at the photos and thought to myself that I didn't take a video since there was one at the top of my album,so I clicked it and I was amazed by the slideshow/video that it made! :D

Loving this phone, just hope the battery is good - is it?:)

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbalerdi:
HI everybody

Being new in the USA I am not very familiar on the way the carriers tie different plans to different phones, it seems a bit strange to me.

So I have a N4 that I bought myself and my company IT manager requested the service with AT&T. My corporate data plan they put me under is called "Smartphone Unlimited Add-On". So far so good.

Now I want to take advantage of the Galaxy S3 subsidized by AT&T by making an upgrade. BUT my idea is to keep using the N4 myself, and give the S3 to my girlfriend. :)

The thing is that when I order the S3, the portal forces me to change the data plan. It says that the S3 is not compatible with my current data plan, and wants to change it to a plan called "Domestic and International Data for LTE 4G phones" (or something like that)

We all know that N4 is not LTE, and as I said I want to keep using it and give the S3 to my gf. Will the N4 work with this new plan that they are forcing me to change?? Is there gonna be any practical difference, or this plan tiering is just for marketing / billing purposes?

Thank you very much

Gonzalo
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
the n4 is lte, its compatible with band 4 lte, and i use lte every day. the thing is that you have to enable the lte(need a custom recovery or root). anyways, it sounds like they are trying plan tiering/or trying to get more out of your bill. anyways, im not on att, im with tmobile, so take my answer with a grain of salt ;)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbalerdi:
Thank you .

Yes I know the L4 unofficially supports LTE in band 4. This is T-Mo and not ATT.

However my question is the opposite... will the N4 (with no LTE enabled at all) work the same with a LTE plan? In other words, will it still work fine on HSPA+ with this plan?

Thanks

G
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
it probably would. and a few att areas support band 4 lte. not many, but there is band 4 in several att areas. what area of the us are you going to?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbalerdi:
Im in Miami :)

I don't really care much having LTE in my N4. I'm fine with HSPA, it works very well. The thing is that I am forced to change the plan in order to get the subsidized S3 for my gf :laugh:

again thanx!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fernandezhjr:
Allow it to make the change. The actual change doesn't happen until you activate the phone. So when you receive the phone, just call AT&T and let them know you will not be using the phone on your line after all and they will remove the pending data plan change.
