Jellybean play store
Has anyone tried it on their tf 101?

I installed it on my Razr MAXX. Other than the addition of "Magazines and TV", I didn't see any difference. I uninstalled it because I have no interest in these additions. ..But it did work fine. You can try it on the TF. It's easy to uninstall the update if there's any issues.
I have it installed on my stock ICS TF101. I downloaded it from another XDA thread, I believe for the Amaze 4G. It is running fine with no problems. I've already canceled a magazine subscription from the nook store and started getting it though play magazines. It was almost 40% cheaper through the play store. Loving it so far.
I just noticed that sometime in the last 48 hours, the new Play Store was pushed to my TF. It is now running 3.7.13.
hey guys.
do you know if this update is available in play store or i need to track it here at xda? i do not have the transformer with me and i was currious.
thanks

Your Play Store should have updated itself my now. It's been pushed to all my devices. If not, you can find it on sites such has "Droid-Life".
Yea, I'm using it. I like the new magazine section. You should have no problem with it. Just find it and upgrade.

I just realized that the new store has added some pretty subtle improvements like auto-complete to the search box (it'll pop up with actual apps as you type, as opposed to just keywords - allowing you to bypass the search results screen) and full screen pictures of icons when you click on them.

Zinio is a magazine reading application. At the moment comes with some free magazines.

This app is exactly what I've been looking for, lots magazines with reasonable price.
However, its very slow to navigate and zoom within a magazine. I even got a warning for "System encountered low memory" for the first time on the Xoom.
So I'm not going to buy any magazines or subscription until the app becomes more usable.
Hopefully new update is in the work.
Coming from an Ipad, I was very much looking forward to this being released. The program is ok, relatively slow as well. Sadly, the national geographic subscription I paid for will not work on honeycomb yet.
For some reason, my tablet hasn't gotten the newest google play update yet. My samsung galaxy player has it. Is it just me? I am still running honeycomb.

I know this doesn't have input to your question, but why have you not gone to ICS yet? Just curious...
Got the new market today.
And, yes, ICS is the way to go. Don't let the bootloader talk worry you. It is a fairly straightforward & well documented process. Your tablet will thank you for it.
I downloaded the apk yesterday. No big changes other than magazines

I got it today, I am excited to buy a couple of movies!
In Belgium we can't buy anything from the play store
Which part of Belgium are you living in?
Tax-paying North can do so without a problem. ....
Marcher
In Flanders, the only thing that we could buy from the play store are apps but no books or movies etc.
Well I finally got it, I don't know why it took so long....

So, this tablet is a great purchase don't get me wrong but the more I play with it the more I see force closing, freezing, and lag. Just not as snappy as my phone. My question is, is it the tablet or is it jellybean? I know jellybean is brand spankin new, so could this be the reason why these apps are force closing? Facebook and ALL browsers I've tried are the worst. And also for some reason it freezes a lot just when I go to my settings. Very annoying waiting for the simple stuff. Let me know if I'm the only one please. Thanks

Im the opposite way. all my apps run smoothly. I may get a bit of lag once in a blue moon but it doesnt bother me. Chrome is also very quick too.
Well if you ask Rovio, it's jelly beans fault. I asked them about Amazing Alex not being available and got:
"Unfortunately Nexus 7 can not be added to the compatible devices due to its non standard way of reading the game's manifest file. This is something we can not change, it's up to the device manufacturer and Operation System manufacturer."
Amazing Alex is running beautifully on my N7. Available from Amazon App Store, so that pretty much makes that last post a complete fabrication of fact.

I also thought that Amazing Alex being incompatible seemed weird given that it works on Tegra phones...
A load of applications just don't seem to be ready for high resolutions, and don't look right. Given that this device has truly taken off I imagine everyone will start to include 1280 layouts.
I'm grabbing stuff through the Play Store onto my Tab 2 7.0 and the using ROM Toolbox to make a backup, then sideloading the backup .apks on the N7. So far everything has worked just peachy. Probably my number one annoyance at this point with the device. (Previous number one annoyances were "Why is this thing so hard to root after the last OTA or is it my Tab 2 drivers getting in the way?", and after that it was "How in the world do I get Flash to work, why is Dolphin HD not working with Flash?")

You guys should email Rovio.
Amazon Appstore doesn't have strict device policies for apps, so that's why you were able to install it and find out it works fine.
The Play Store, developers have tons of settings for device policies on apps, so they can exclude some devices, or can automatically exclude some devices (and they don't even know that it did).

Funny, it wasn't available for download from the Play store as of last night. I guess Rovio must have updated the software?

I agree that what Rovio told me is bs, as sideloading produced no issues. I was just saying what Rovio told me.
What is amazing Alex. And what is rovio?

Rovio is the developer that created Angry Birds. Amazing Alex is from the developer Rovio.
Why is there yet another thread about app compatibility? Are these people all fresh and new to Android or something? Relax, the OS just launched, give it a few weeks - this is ridiculous now!
Even though YouTube app runs, it is indeed incompatible. Go to Play Store, you won't see it under your "Installed" list. You can't search it in Play store either (because it's incompatible with JB).
Is spotify supposed to be working? I ask as I cannot get the search feature to work at all and so am limited to playing my playlists only.
Amazing Alex HD plays fine here. The only game I found to run like crap is the Not-So-Amazing-Spider-Man.
-Its probably Tegra drivers and not Jelly Bean's fault.

Realese?
If it isn't released yet, then does it mean that there may be some changes when released? I am asking because i had downloaded it a few days before.
It is released officially but only some devices have got the upgrade

I just downloaded and right away found a glitch. On the main screen it shows the apps books and blah but if you touch the side it has a seizure and starts moving left and right a million times. Really hard to explain.

Google Play Store 4.0.25 Blue Theme
QuantumFoam said:
Hey
So I kinda didn't like the new Play Store look. Too much green, red and orange within the respective sections. So, thanks to forum member jugg1es' encouragement, I themes the whole thing so that it has a Holo Light look. I've not themed the arrows, check marks etc to maintain the subtle difference between apps, books, magazines, movies and music.
Instructions
- Extract archive upload search Phonesky.apk
- Open your file manager
- Navigate to /system/app
- Rename Phonesky.apk/vending.apk to Phonesky.bak/vending.bak
- Paste the downloaded file here and rename it to Phonesky.apk/vending.apk
- Set permissions to rw-r--r--

Anyone can see this?

This is new? My CM10.1 nightly, JB-4.2.2 skyrocket upgraded to this the first time i ran it weeks ago. But none of my <4.2.2 androids got the upgrade. I was assuming it was restricted to the new version of JB? I like it much better. Its simple, quick and looks boring, like it should. I will never miss the "keep shopping?" page!!! And lil Wayne blinged out on the home screen? Was googles lamest app by far! Im liking the new attitude much better so far.

I'm not sure if this has been discussed or not on the forms here. This is kind of hard to explain..Whenever I'm browsing in the Play Store app on the N10, during a download the app itself flickers (almost like its refreshing) whenever the percentage moves during the downloading process. This has happened way before the updates to the Play Store app as well. I'm running CM 10.1 (Nightly) and the issue is still there. This was one of the first things I noticed when I was running stock too. I was kind of hoping that Play Store Version 4.0.26 fixed it but I guess not.
Has anybody noticed this issue? I highly doubt this a hardware related issue. Games seem to run awesome on it.
Any ideas?

I have had the same issue since I got mine in December, running stock.
I've had this issue under JB 4.2 and ICS 4.0 on an Acer a500 and the Nexus N10, no fix found yet.
I get this too… it seems to me like a refresh issue, like the Play Store is trying to load up other images or something. Since no other app does this, I'm pretty sure it's just an app issue.
I've seen it on every rom, every version of the play Store... It may be the refresh for the download causing issues

Yes, because it makes scrolling through 'My Apps' a royal PITA. And sometimes, if its particularly fickle, it keeps returning to one single app over and over.
Thanks for the reply back guys. I didn't know if it was a hardware related or if its just a bug in the app itself. I see that version 4.0,27 got released today. Hopefully this will help!
@bahehs..Do you have jokes or something? I remember my first beer.

Still flickers for me, but at least it doesn't reset to the top of the list every time it flickers now.
Same issue when I'm viewing all my apps during download. Since I can now scroll through my apps during download I don't worry about it much anymore.

When I'm updating multiple apps, it will keep refreshing the first one to the point that I can't click on the next app in line to be updated, because I want to see what the new update has added or changed.
I have the same issue (flickering shop) on my Nexus 7. I've noticed that it happens while downloading larger files, especially games. Sometimes it freezes Google Play completely.
So far I haven't noticed it on my Nexus 10. (But it has different version of Google Play, as far as I can tell).
The latest play store 4.xx resolved my flickers.

Yup, flashing, barely able to see what was going on be it downloading an app or copying a film from a flash drive. Installed AOPK and it is fixed, one solid moving bar as it ought to be.
Mine does this as well. I just leave the play store so I don't have to deal with it. Completely stock.
I get this with paranoid android, but had it before changing. It not only flickers, but when I'm downloading, say, Gmail, and go to another app while in the "My Apps" view, it will revert back to Gmail. Very annoying.
