The OP, or rather the third post, also the last few pages in this thread.

in order to use with android auto, you activate developer mode for android auto () then activate unknown app..

Now you can use it on Android auto..

Hey, nice effort [MENTION=4787101]linuxct[/MENTION] !

One suggestion is the option to download music, that would make this app complete and i bet everyone would like listen to music offline ;)
[Android Apps and Games] preference:
Read the thread or search before posting a feature request. It's impossible to download from Spotify due to encryption - additionally that would make this a Warez app, which the developer is not interested in. Nor trying to be mean, but please use the search function or at least read a few previous forum pages. Education through research makes xda a better forum.

Hey mate could you offer a arm64 version of Dogfood?
[Android Apps and Games] mondohow:
Genuine question. What's the benefit of an arm64 version of this? What would be the benefit vs developers effort/ limited time?
[Android Apps and Games] Inky:
Well, benefit: faster and more optimized resource utilisation, something between 5% to 20%. The effort for the dev idk! I'm basically only programming on Windows/Linux Server in P5 or C#, there making a app use 64bit is simply done by changing compiler settings and recompiling the executable, usually no errors occur. Like I said I'm not a Android dev and thus don't know the effort that goes into making an app utilize 64bit, I guess not much idk you tell me?

It's not up to him, ask Spotify. They're only making ARM and x86 versions. You can go to Apkmirror and see for yourself.
[Android Apps and Games] TheOldMan:
Made my day!??
[Android Apps and Games] Inky:
Your armv8 supports 32bit of cause you can run every 32bit program on a 64bit arch lmao, but the app only utilizes 32bit clusters. I'm not saying it doesn't work, only it could be more efficient compiled with 64bit archs in mind because decryption is way faster on 64bit then in 32bit which is done in Spotify while streaming music
[Android Apps and Games] rignfool:
You're talking about minimal at best improvement in metrics that NO ONE will notice... Hence why it isn't done... Yet...

Maybe when the last 32bit device goes back to nature... You might see it... But probably not
[Android Apps and Games] kpalian:
So, will we ever get an alternative to the original Spotify Dogfood or will I be stuck on Spotify version 8.4.36.305 forever? I know if there is a new modified Spotify APK it won't be here on XDA, but is anyone possibly currently working on a new one? Or maybe forking the original? I hope asking this doesn't break any rules!

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Inky:
Ok I didn't know, im coming from Windows/Linux desktop and there, doing linear algebra (matrix & hash operations) is way faster and power conserving on 64bit, like 5% to 20% which is much, or you use the GPU in the first place but that's another story

Spotify Dogfood 8.4.39.612 has just been released!

Hello everyone!

Today I'm releasing Spotify Dogfood 8.4.39.612. Just as always, you can find the new PatchSet in the GitHub repo, as well as binaries in the Releases section. Also, remember you can always keep up-to-date with Updater for Spotify, which you can get from here.

Changelog is:

* Rebase to latest Spotify version 8.4.39.612.

Enjoy! :)

This is unfortunate, the changes that recently happened with this mod. While it was a good run and many thanks to the op, I guess I'm going to move on. All the best to you [MENTION=4787101]linuxct[/MENTION]

The mod is still alive and well. Do your research.
[Android Apps and Games] preference:
FOR ALL THE PEOPLE WHO WON'T READ THE FIRST POST:

1. Dogfood only supports shuffle mode at normal quality with No ADVERTISEMENTS.

2. The mod had to be changed due to xda rules

3. This thread is not the place to complain. If you have an issue with the changes go to the telegram chat and talk with other dogfood users

4. There is nothing you can do to change the situation - be happy with what you get. No advertisements is still a really good perk

5. Support the developer if you can, monetarily or through teaching noobs about how to read the OP.

6. Look outside of xda if you can't handle the changes, but do not post any information on this board. Keep it related to dogfood
[Android Apps and Games] linuxct:

First, where have I asked for money and when have I forced anyone to pay for any of my works? Tell me, I beg you to find any proof of that.

Spotify Dogfood (in all it's own) is and will always remain FREE and OPEN SOURCE, no matter where you find it. I really don't see any reason for talking this kind of bull**** of it.

Secondly, I do not really need the money. I have a work IRL to attend to, and donations are used to pay the server costs, which I run ON MY OWN for this project.

Thirdly, if you had bothered yourself to read any of the posts from the last, idk, 5 pages?, or even in Telegram, you'd see how wrong you are. Sad.

[Android Apps and Games] SacredDeviL666:
Here i am going to write this for one last time before i start handing out warnings/infractions to each one of you who is lazy enough to read the first posts but not lazy enough to post utter nonsense and get the Dev feel sorry for his contribution.

a) Dev doesn't owe you anything or any explanation

b) You don't like it? Good for you stay out of this thread and don't post your negative comments (unless its a constructive feedback)

c) Your opinion about why a certain feature is removed isn't required here as this isn't a chatroom but a Dev forum/section

d) EXTREME QUALITY/Unlimited Skips are premium features, Dev simply complied to XDA's forum rules of no Crack/Warez would be allowed within XDA and removed these.

e) Use it if you want to with the current set of features or don't

f) Last but not least read these posts before you ask another question here:-

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=72922822&postcount=1

I hope the above points were clear and i wouldn't need to hand out warning/infractions unless you all want to ignore and pester the Dev still.

[Android Apps and Games] AceOfCardsSpades:
To those of you sharing "the issue has been addressed" the issue remains, I fully understand that dogfood key features have been removed per forum rules, saying that "the issue" has been addressed is flat out incorrect.

Rubbish! What if I want to use both??? What if a feature is not present in Spotify Dog Food and is available in Spotify??

Why would I not be allowed to install TWO different streaming apps?

Why force people to uninstall another bit of software to use this, when it is NOT the original Spotify?!

Please fix to allow users to operate BOTH versions if THEY want to, so they can try and decide BEFORE committing to a new app.

If I make a clone of Google Search that is open source and improved, I will NOT call the package name com.Google.search! I would call it something different to not clash with other software installed on the device...

Please provide a version with package name: com.Spotify 2.app, or something similar, rather than identical Spotify app name.

Thank you.
[Android Apps and Games] linuxct:
Simple matters have even simpler solutions: That's why there are App Cloners in the Play Store. Not my problem.

Also, do note that changing the package name *will* break some of the app functionality, so that's why it remains as the original (and do also note, this app isn't a clone, but a mod on top of the original one?).

Hi guys, has anybody gotten Spotify Dogfood to work with Waze? When I load the Waze app it doesn't seem to be able to connect to Spotify and Waze disables the option automatically.

I can't see that anyone has the problem I'm experiencing.

When I install Spot Dog, after a while the storage directory on the sd card under Android\data\com. Spotify.Music\ becomes full of recursive storage directories. At least 100. I'm unable to delete/move so anything with the directories other than reformat the sd card and start again.

I've unininstalled and reinstalled spot dog, tried the last four different versions from this thread. No difference. Very frustrating because my OCD starts kicking in because it's not right!

The app seems to work properly, but the sd card rapidly fills up with GBs of empty directories all under storage. All undeletable.

No logs yet but can attach if someone advises what logs are needed.

Has anyone else had this happen?
[Android Apps and Games] TheOldMan:
Maybe this are the Cache files.

Have tried cleaning Cache in settings?
[Android Apps and Games] ceanth:
It doesn't work for me, I have latest Waze and Dogfood. When I enable Spotify from Waze I get an error saying "Ok, Spotify not connected"

I assume that once enabled I will have Spotify controls from the Waze app during navigation.
[Android Apps and Games] creager:
Yes. Trying to clear cache and data results in a process hang. Trying to delete in recovery via terminal or file manager comes up with a "transport" error.

There's any way to bypass the 15 hours per month limit when using a vpn to login? Or it's impossible like the offline function?
[Android Apps and Games] nthacks:
You only need the VPN enabled when you're logging in.

After it logs in successfully, you can disable VPN.

It does not need to be enabled for streaming, so it will never use up that much data.
[Android Apps and Games] axiel7:
I know that, but if you're listening with an account from another region Spotify limits you to 15h/month
[Android Apps and Games] nthacks:
That's strange. They've removed that limit and made it 15 days, after which you have to login via VPN again.

Check this support thread and others like it to resolve your issue https://community.spotify.com/t5/Ac...ched-listening-limit-of-15-hours/td-p/1479857
[Android Apps and Games] axiel7:
Thanks, the problem is that I'm using a Japanese account, Spotify has 15h/month limit in Japan for free accounts :(
[Android Apps and Games] nthacks:
Yeah, that limit was supposed to be removed even for Japan, and it was only applicable to the desktop app, not the mobile.

However, I think you should try changing your country to USA following this guide https://support.spotify.com/cz/article/how-can-i-change-my-country-setting/

Make sure you're using a proper VPN like tunnelbear or windscribe.

Enable the VPN and login to your Spotify profile in a browser and follow the steps given in the link above to change your country :)
[Android Apps and Games] axiel7:
Thanks for help, the problem is that I want to use a Japan account because I like Japanese music and I can't listen some tracks here in Spain. The 15h/month limit only appears on desktop app but with the same account in Spotify app I can't listen any song (even in shuffle mode), it's says: "you have found a premium freature!" So I'm confused, it's the 15h/month limit or the 14-days limit? Can I open a freature request for remove the limit? Or it will be useless?

Just an FYI. We're okay with this and it being an adfree Spotify, we have plenty of system wide adblockers and a YouTube adfree version on XDA.

However please refrain from asking for other premium features to be unlocked, that is slightly stepping over the line.

I think you're talking about this. Try disabling the Google Signature Checks to Waze with that.

The Micro-APK for Android Wear comes pre-bundled with the Spotify app. Unfortunately, I don't own an Android Wear device (but a good ol' Sony Smartwatch 2), so I can't help much on how to install it.

No, it's as it comes by default. I also use Swift Dark theme and the app feels the same, so I don't bother installing an overlay for it.
