Google Listen in Jelly Bean - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hi all,
i am using the jelly bean version of panroid android and i would like to use google listen for my podcasts. But google play doesn't offer it to me. Alternatives i don't want to buy, because i change the sd-rom very often (i like playing with it . Is there a possibility to install google listen on jelly bean on hd2?
Thanks in advance
Heiko

According to other app sources (app brain for example) Google listen is no longer listed on Google play, and searching play from the PC returns no mention of it either.
Maybe they pulled it last week when they pulled various other side projects.

If it's just for the application, it's not that hard to look for .apk's on Google Search.

Best Jelly Bean pod cast app
I love Listen on my older droids, but I was really hoping they would update it for Jelly Bean and integrate Google Plus in there.
I did notice that Google Play Music knows I just played a podcast using Beyond Pod and added it to my revently listened playlist, but it doesn't look like it has any way to subscribe, pause and resume, etc.
Anyone have a simple pod cast app that can import my feeds that are organized in Google Reader (because that is how Listen does it).

NO more Android Market. Now called....

......called 'Google Play'
"Google has just taken the wraps off of Google Play, the replacement for the Android Market, Google Music and everything else from the search giant. The new Google Play went live earlier this morning and we are already starting to receive updates for their suite of apps. Google Music and Books have both been updated today in the Android Market — err Google Play to support the new “Play” branding.
Now being called Google Play Music and Google Play Books and that is about it. Under the what’s new tab we basically have nothing other than new name, new logo, same great app. So nothing appears to have changed yet but Google is quickly changing thi…

It looks like Google is trying to rename everything about Android that is really Google’s doing – into something with Google in it. They’ve just killed the Android Market name (and web link) in order to rebrand it into Google Play. Now the focus will still be on apps, but also it will be a lot more on music, books and movies.
They will do this by separating all these into 4 categories. The apps will be available in the Play Store, the music in the Play Music, the books in Play Books, and finally, the movies in Play Movies. This certainly comes as a surprise that is unexpected, because we were all used to using the Android Market for these, although it’s true that the vast majority of people only used it for apps. So now that they are doing this, perhaps it will convince people to buy music from Play Music, books from Play Books, and so on.
Unfortunately, there’s still the same old country-access problem, and only a handful of countries have access to books, music and movies so far (blame the content labels):

Damn, everything is changing sooooo fast.!!

Hmm, I'm one of those guys that doesn't like change.
However, if everything stays the same, it's ok with me.
Android Market may be too simple of a name, (Google) Play sounds ok.
Remember to pick up some discounted apps while browsing Google Play.
Market is now called Play Store. It just updated to 3.4.6. The icon looks cool. Nothing else changed within the app.

In the future we will have Google Play Music , Google Play Movie ......

You can get it in a few places now. I put it on my site too.
Google Play 3.4.7.apk
Edit: Corrected the market number.
I'm looking forward to the new features!
really need a real time cloud sync. i use my tablet and phone (depending where I am) and would like the data synced between them (game saves etc)
today my home screen shortcut to Goolge Play disappeared again, released a new update?
Its just the same. Only name change

Google Play - New market. music, video, books

Google Play - New market. music, video
1. Here's the scoop.
In a nutshell, Google Music, Google eBookstore, and the Android Market were combined to form Google Play. Not only will you purchase music, movies, books, and apps at play.google.com, but those items will also be stored in the cloud. You'll be able to do the same thing on your Android phone or tablet using the various Google Play apps (more on that later).
The two destinations--Web and mobile--stay synced. So, when you purchase an app, movie, song, or book on the Play Web site, that content will become immediately available on your Android phone (and/or tablet). Likewise, if you rent a movie on your Android tablet, it becomes available for viewing on your desktop, too.
Because it's cloud-based, those purchases won't eat up storage on your computer, tablet, or phone.
It's like iTunes-meets-iCloud for the Android folk.
2. It's already available online, on its way to your Android.
The Play Store is already live at play.google.com. You'll see that it's a one-stop shop for all of the aforementioned services. In fact, if you try to go to the Android Store, you'll be redirected to the Play Store.
On your Android device, you'll get four app updates within the next few days:
The Android Market will become "Play Store."
Google Music will become "Play Music."
Google Movies will become "Play Movies."
eBookstore will become "Play Books."
If you don't want to wait for Google to push the updates to you, you can install them manually right away.
3. Can I upload my own movies and music?
Google Music, which allows you to store up to 20,000 songs, will remain the same. The only thing that will change is its name, Play Music. Any music you already purchased or uploaded is still available, and you can continue uploading your jams at music.google.com, or on the rebranded Android app, Play Music.
Movies are a different story. Right now, Google does not allow you to upload your own movies for access in the cloud. Its Play Movies app solely functions as a movie rental service.
4. Even non-Android users can use Google Play.
Let's be clear: even though Play is heavily marketed to Android users, any Google user can use the service to take advantage of cloud-based content management. So, you can rent a movie, upload and purchase music, and buy books on one computer, and access it all on any other desktop.
Mum's the word on native iOS support, but stay tuned for any updates.
When you rent a movie on Play Movies, it immediately becomes available on any device.
(Credit: Google)
5. Will Google Play's cloud-based nature kill my data plan?
Probably not. Even though all your content is stored in the cloud, any of it is available for offline playback. That includes books, music, and rented movies. Of course, the amount of content you can store offline, or "cache," will be limited to your device's storage capacity.
Tip: To do less harm to your data plan, connect to Wi-Fi before downloading content for offline viewing or playback.
Bonus: Expect heavy Google+ integration.
Continuing its streak of heavily promoting its social network, expect Google+ integration to be everywhere. As Google explains, "You can easily share posts about your favorite books, music, movies, games, or apps to your Circles on Google+, e-mail, or text message in a single click."
This integration, which has been available on Google Music for a while, will be useful for Google+ users, but others might find it annoying.

you mentioned in another post that "may be music, book,video update won't available in india, but you can update manually" so after updating manually are you able to use all the services?
No. These services may not be offered in India, so once you update manually, you still wont have access to these services, nor will it be visible to view these sections. Unless your account is US (region which offers these services) based.
Market Enabler may work, not sure.
Sorry for perhaps noobing, dr. ketan!
Do you know if I´m able to install the play market on RocketRom V22 (without incompatibility issues due to DPI changes)?

Nope. In my experience Google Music is a 5 out of 10. Maybe they've improved it, I'll check this weekend...
Thanks for all the info and the download
Although for some reason I can't get it to install on my hero cdma.. I'm pretty sure its supported. I think its cause hero doesn't officially have 2.3 and I'm running 2.3.7 atm =/

Thanks for these, they installed perfectly last month when all other downloads failed!
However, there's a new version of Books now (2.4.3), and I'm getting the "parsing error" again with every apk I've downloaded. Does anyone happen to have an apk like the one above that might work for me?
Thanks in advance.

[Q] Without custom ROM, the Q completely dead?

After the new Play Music apps released, I no longer able to stream music to the Q.
Do you think this is the Q last breath?
I'm also really sad about this issue. My current workaround is to use my old Nexus One with a 4.5 version of the play music app. I have 5 Nexus Q in my place and integrated them completely into my ambiance automation for volume changes & mute control in every room. My escape route from this lingering doom is to write some kind of RTP receiver for the Q's and a UPnP renderer app that doesn't just play locally but also broadcasts to the other Q's. Since I want to keep using Google Music the source will be provided by BubbleUPnP, it has an option to provide your Google Music account as a UPnP media server. I will most certainly miss the beauty of the official Google Music app for remote control, but I don't see another way without loosing the Q's.

Google Play Music update fixes Touchless Control

Short and sweet, but someone had mentioned a mix of 4.4.2 OTA and GPM's update fixed being able to play music via Touchless Control. I'm on 4.4 (not 4.4.2) VZW and can confirm that Touchless Control now will play any song in your phone. Give it a shot and let us here at XDA know if the same is present for you all cheers!
You can only play the songs if you bought them through Google play right? I never bought any songs from Google play, I just uploaded my collection into google music. Whenever I use touchless control to play music, Google search just takes me to google play, it never opens the music app
Nope, I have Ariana Grande's CD ripped myself and it's stored on my "sdcard" not the cloud.
EDIT: I do have music through GPM's store, and those worked fine pre-update, but now music that I've copied to the internal memory works, so it seems to have been fixed for all media that GPM sees.

Don't know if you were referring to my post in the 4.4.2 thread, but I am experiencing the same with touchless controls playing music. Most of my music is ripped and stored on the phone as well, and it pretty much plays anything I say using the phrase, example "play The Beatles". Since you don't have 4.4.2 like I do I assume the update to GPM fixed it. Thanks for posting.
I think it only works in the US.

When I say "Okay Google Now, play The Script" (or any music) it verifies it's going to play it, goes into the GPM and then it just pops up a keyboard and the song file, as if I had searched for it via GPM and not Google Now and doesn't start playing it automatically. I have Google Now set to start playing GPM as my player of choice, but it just acts like I was looking for it and doesn't actually play it.
Any thoughts? Thanks!

Mine does the same thing with the keyboard, (don't understand what the deal is with the keyboard) but it plays a song. Are you sure your not set to pause? Have you tried setting GPM as your default player again?
You know, it really depends on what mood my phone is in, I told it to play "What's My Name" by Rihanna and it played it, but if I tell it some songs, it will search it and say "Couldn't start instant mix" and won't play, despite it showing in the search results. I think it's still hit or miss, but saying an artist (providing Google can pick apart the artist's name) it will play them. Work in progress for Touchless Control (Actually this is a Google Now thing) but once they find more bugs, GPM will get updated and actually use the API's correctly. As far as I know, this is US only until they open it to more regions.

Alternative to google play music?

Been using google play music for many years. But with the latest update it's not working well on nougat roms and when its working, it again and again asks to subscribe. Offline music search gets crippled.
So any suggestions of a music app that supports searching and choosing what to play next?
thanks.
SoundCloud Anyday
Power amp, best app i've ever used, easy and many cool features.
Are you looking for a local player or streaming? Makes a huge difference...
n7player, Neutron, BlackPlayer, MediaMonkey, Pulsar, or PowerAMP as mentioned before...
God... I miss WinAMP!!!
Shuttle its pretty nice, but im using this port https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...sony-xperia-music-9-3-5-0-0-port-apk-t3555386
@acejavelin I'm looking for a local player.
I personally like VLC for its ability to play formats like WMA. It does have a search function and ability to create playlists.
Black Player EX is the best to use
@acejavelin Really strange, when I got this phone 8 months ago and logged into Google the first time it reinstalled Winamp for me, but it is not in the play store or my app list.
I've used PowerAMP for over 3 years, love it.
