[Android Apps and Games] Handsomenicor:
Help! :)

Is there anyway I can install this in my nokia x2ds? Its the only microsoft android but it somehow cannot be installed in my phone. Thank you! :)
[Android Apps and Games] obscuresword:
That's because the Nokia x2ds on Android 4.3 from what I've read. To use this app your need 4.4.X and above as stated in the op. A good alternative to this app is WPS office.
[Android Apps and Games] rahimali:
Nokia X2DS has a fully functional CM11 so should not be an issue if the user is willing to flash... I hate the stock OS on that phone!
[Android Apps and Games] obscuresword:
True.

Hi,it dosen't work i tried every steps.but it always say "additional files required"

[Android Apps and Games] eclyptos:

[Android Apps and Games] Jack Phoenix:
That's not how xda works. We find problems, we fix 'em -- be it an Xposed module or something else. "Just do as the vendor wants you to" is neither a solution nor an appropriate workaround, even if it fits some definition of "free". Some of us just don't want to submit to the vendor's will, even if it'd be free.

I'm one of those people, and as such, I'm more than interested in a proper fix or work-around for this; if and when I can use my desktop Word without signing into any cloud account or somesuch nonsense, I expect the same to be true here. Surely this is doable, since initially Word allows you to run it a limited number (5-10?) of times without an account?
[Android Apps and Games] obscuresword:
I respectfully disagree. This is how XDA works (a person offers input, and another person either accepts it, inquires about it or leaves it). Onto the rest of your comment this isn't seen as a problem. Remember the purpose of this thread is to get the app to work on non-supported devices, which means full functionality. The app is designed to work with a MS account so the solution I gave is very appropriate here.

if and when I can use my desktop Word without signing into any cloud account or somesuch nonsense, I expect the same to be true here.

You shouldn't expect this to be fair. The desktop application is paid, while this is free. The desktop application has a ton more functionality compared to these mobile versions. In fact the mobile version are more comparable to what you would find on Microsoft's Office Online site. The mobile versions were most likely designed to work with their site.

Surely this is doable, since initially Word allows you to run it a limited number (5-10?) of times without an account?

I doubt this. Word allows you to run it, but it won't all you to save your work or do other functions without an account. You can try messing around with the share_preferences folder found in system -> data -> data -> scroll until you see word, but I don't see a around this. Honestly, you might be better off using something like WPS Office: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cn.wps.moffice_eng&hl=en, which was designed with mobile usage in mind from the get go.

Dumb question: How would I push the obb files without extracting them?
[Android Apps and Games] routine8:
Got the Office apps working on a Dell Venue 8 3840! (android)

The instructions in this forum for using office on an unsupported device did not entirely work for me with my Dell 3840 venue tablet with an ATOM chip. The office apps installed and the .obb files were in the correct place, but the office apps gave me an incompatibility error message when I opened them.

I toiled for a while and found a strange way to make them work. You have to perform a non-standard play store update to the office apps after installing the .apks. You cant update them via the play store unless you use a link to update them inside the MS Office online (cloud based) apps. The app download link is at the top of the cloud based office app once you are inside (excel, word, or ppt cloud apps on office.com).

Here are the steps I followed:

1. Follow all of the instructions on the first post of this forum. Install the x86 .apks if you have an ATOM processor (which the Venue 8 does). Use the other .apks for non-x86 chips. Put the .obb files in the directories as specified by the instructions. Note that the .obb files are for all chip types (only one set of .obb links are listed on the instruction page).

NOTE: Only download the .apk and .obb files linked at the Zippyshare site. Often times clicking the x86 .apk links take you to "evozi" (I don't know why), which did not work for me. Evozi appears to be a scam site. Perhaps the x86 .apk links are partially hijacked?? I did get to the zippyshare file server after a few tries. All the .obb files correctly link to zippyshare.

2. After putting the .obb files in the correct directory structure and installing the .apks, you may find that when open any of the office apps you installed, you will get an error message stating that the app is not compatible with your device, and it wont work.

3. Log on to office.com from your tablet. Open the online-version of the word app (or excel or powerpoint).

4. Click on "Get (app name) for your device" at the top of the screen of the cloud office app you are using. Your device will then be redirected to the play store which will link you to a legitimate "update" for that office app (no compatibility error message!). You now can update your office apps on the play store and thereafter they will work normally!

NOTE: if you go to the play store directly after installing the .apks you WILL NOT be able to update or use the office apps. They play store will state that your device is incompatible. You MUST follow the instructions in items #3 and #4 above to get a play store link that will allow you to update the app without a compatibility error screen.

Cheers, XDA! :good:

EVGA TegraNote

Does anyone had any success with the Nvidia TegraNote in installing this? As I see some posts about the Asus Transformer which is Tegra2, and this Nvidia thingy is Tegra4

I did try what I read at the firsts, and the following 199 posts, back/forth/across but without luck (parse error)

I did also read "KatKis" is a must, that said; I'm stubbornly sticking with 4.2.2 as it gives me an average of ~13hrs battery life compared to KitKat's 3-4hrs. (don't know what it activates (silent gps despite disabling it?), but I just can't squeeze more out of KK(including greenify,deepsleepbatt.svr,etc..))

The reason I made this post still is: as whether or not I should even consider looking into custom romming (cyano) sometime in the future, as I'm still on stock/root combo but I was surprised how well it displayed my complex budgeting 2007 xls full of diagrams almost as it was on desktop when it run on my LG G Pro 2

Unfortunately no. I'm still trying to find someone who'll extract the apk and OBB files for me.

When you say, "you only changed the PowerPoint folder name, right"....that's not correct, is it? The folder name stays the same, and the .obb file needs to be renamed, right?

I renamed the .obb file in the folder as instructed in the OP, but the app crashed at launch. Excel and Word work fine. Anyone else experiencing this issue?

I can sign in on the 15.0.3609.2000 apk on stock rooted android in a foreign country with no proxy on 5.01 on Nexus 5, 7, and 10, but the new seperate apks won't complete the extra downloads.

Is there a big difference in the new apks?

Could someone put up the additional downloaded files and I'll push them to my devices.
[Android Apps and Games] goodwinod:
doing something wrong

I must be doing something wrong. I installed the files. I downloaded the obb files. I extracted the files into android - obb. There is a folder in the obb folder: com.Microsoft.office.excel in it. Inside that folder there is a file main.1636011005.com.Microsoft.office.excel.obb

It still says I need to download files. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance.
[Android Apps and Games] JBH168:
Did you try clearing data on that app?
[Android Apps and Games] CaleTheKing:
Did you have to do anything special to get them working on your Shield Tablet on Lollipop?

I followed the instructions and installed the APKs, then put the .obb files in /data/media/obb/ and when I open the Word preview, it says that additional files are needed to run Word, and then it says "Downloading" but nothing ever downloads.:confused:

EDIT: They had to go into /sdcard/Android/obb/com.microsoft.office.word/

Everything is working perfectly now, including sign-in!

You could try to edit your build.prop. Be careful though and make a backup of your build.prop first.

ro.product.cpu.abi=armeabi-v7a
ro.product.cpu.abi2=armeabi
ro.product.cpu.abilist=armeabi-v7a,armeabi
ro.product.cpu.abilist32=armeabi-v7a,armeabi
ro.product.cpu.abilist64=

Please let me know if this works for you.

I'm not a developer of Microsoft Office, so I don't know what they're up to. If you go to the Google Plus group though, you'll see some posts stating that they are not planning on making this free for devices larger than 10".

Since I can't think of any way you can read out the screen size directly, they must be calculating it with some code similar to the following:

DisplayMetrics dm = new DisplayMetrics();
getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(dm);
int width=dm.widthPixels;
int height=dm.heightPixels;
int dens=dm.densityDpi;
double wi=(double)width/(double)dens;
double hi=(double)height/(double)dens;
double x = Math.pow(wi,2);
double y = Math.pow(hi,2);
double screenInches = Math.sqrt(x+y);

Thus, you can try adjusting your DPI or your resolution to match a 7" - 10" tablet. Please let me know if this works for you.

You need to push the OBB files to the correct directory.

I'll add version 16.0.3601.1010 to the first post in a moment. I don't have any newer version yet. If you do request an update, please include the version number (if known).

[Android Apps and Games] mikykey:
Thank you for your answer but I'm not going to root my devices. I want to preserve my warranty because my devices is new.. And changing DPI requires root! In the future I'll try..thank you
[Android Apps and Games] JBH168:
At least in the European Union, most-likely in the US as well, rooting your phone doesn't actually void your hardware warranty. At least not the one manufactures have to provide by law (if it breaks without it being your fault). Any additional warranty (if you break your phone) may void. Though most manufactores don't offer latter warranty anyways.

Now, if you manage to hard brick your phone, it won't be covered by warranty. This is most-unlickely though, apparently entirely impossible for some phones.

Also, you can always return to stock/unroot (the manufacture won't be able to tell a difference) if you do need to send it back. If you can't return to stock anymore, the manufacture won't be able to tell either (except you're running a different ROM) since that would mean that your buttons, microusb-port or your flash memory stopped working.
[Android Apps and Games] mikykey:
Thank you. I was aware that Samsung doesn't accept warranty for rooted devices. So in the future I'm going to root and change DPI. Do I need to flash a factory image of the system downloaded by Samsung website to restore the stock system? thank you :)

I guess your processor doesn't meet the minimum requirements for office as stated in post #1.

You could try to adjust your build.prop as mentioned in an earlier post to the nexus 7's. I can't think of any other method. Unfortunately, I don't have the app's source code so I'm not sure how it's checking for the processor and screen size.
