[Q] Nexus 7 deactivates Play Movies on reboot - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I bought my Nexus 7 a few days ago, and noticed that the Google Play Store and Play Music was available on my device, but when I got it rooted and used Titanium Backup I could see that Play Movies, Play Books & Play Magazines was on the device but deactivated.
I used Titanium Backup to activate Play Movies and it works fine, but when i turn off the Nexus 7 and turn it on again later, the Play Movies app is once again deactivated...
Is there anything I can do so this doesn't keep happening?

The availability of those two is dependent upon your country due to licensing restrictions.

So I can't use the application because Google can't sell me any movies?

Transformers movie?

Who's 7 came with the movie?
Mine did. I wonder if it's a rental, aka once you open it, you have 24 hrs to view it, or if you downright own the movie?
Its linked onto my youtube. When I went to the site on my computer it said it was purchased
K. Thanx
I can't find it. Where did you go to find it? It won't even show up when I search for it.

Mine is a streaming copy. Tested this by disconnecting my wifi. Maybe there's a way to download it, but I rather not waste storage space on my Nexus 7.
Mine is streaming also. Just open the google movies app and it should be there.

This is what I'm looking at.

To download it, click on the pin in the lower right corner when you open Google Play Movies.
Unfortunately mine did. I did not see that movie for a reason.

Don't download it if you plan on rooting it. If you do a factory reset say goodbye to it forever.

I've downloaded it and also performed 2 factory resets and the movie is still there in my GP account.
I stand corrected... on my ego shift I rented a movie and downloaded it, when I did a factory reset it wouldn't let me play the movie or stream it from YouTube

I still can't figure this out. I have an email into Google.

Just to clarify, you got the $25 credit but not the movie? Did you get the free magazines and music?

I got the $25 credit. I found free 30 and 14 day subscriptions to a couple magazines. I didn't see any free music.

They all have that, you sign into your Google account and open play ,movies. Of course its streaming, these tablets have limited storage. Like said, press the pin if you want it local

my copy of the movie showed in my library its one of your home screens on the N7.

Just picked up a Nexus 7, what's the best way to stream music from PC?

I was debating nexus 7 or Galaxy tab 2. Pretty sure I've made the right choice. With no SD card I can't store my all of my music. What are some good options. I've used power amp the most on my S2 not much else when it comes to media players.
Thanks

Google play music? Or audiogalaxy?

You have to upload all your desktop music to Google's Music cloud first, then you stream it from the cloud. Doesn't sound like exactly what you want.
To stream directly from the PC, Audiogalaxy is what I used before and seemed to work well. I believe WinAmp does this as well.

What dpi are you using? Anything other than 160 is causing problems
I used 170 i think this but deinstalling play store update solved it today for me

which toolkit?
Hi,
I just ordered the N7, and i want to root.
Just wanna confirm if this toolkit "[Toolkit] Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit v1.5.3 [Updated 8/18/12]" is still usable to unlock and root?

Yes it is

Google might allow you access to the books, but Movies are always blocked on a rooted device.
Personally, if you are trying to have the "best" Google Play experience/compatibility, I don't see the draw to unlocking/rooting the device. When I had my BN Nook Color, it made since as I'd wanted access to an Android OS newer than Froyo.
However, is the Nexus 7 languishing on an older version of Android OS? Nope, it's actually cutting edge. Other than benchmarking, I don't even see the need to overclock this puppy. It's gaming experience is top notch!
I'd always lamented that Hulu+ also wasn't available on a rooted device. So there's what you need to balance. Are the benefits for "root" enough to encourage you to do it?
If the answer's "yes", then by all means root the device, just be aware that some applications are designed to not perform correctly on a "rooted" device, possibly to answer DRM issues to that product vendor.

Huh? I play Google movies AND Hulu+ on my rooted Nexus 7 all the time...
Root is required for me as I need to do full backups and you really can't do that without root.
If you start messing with the dpi If free device your going to have problems, not because of root, but because the apps don't match the settings...

My rooted Nexus 7, Galaxy S III, and MyTouch 4G Slide say otherwise. I was able to watch some movies from the play store on all three of them.

Downgrade play store. Settings , apps , google play store , remove updates.

Are you entirely positive it's the Play Store and not a per app dpi setting that you may have changed in paprefs? Using PA and Play Store 4.1.6 the game is shown as compatible and available. As such, the issue is likely to be on your end and not anything caused by the Play Store.

It happened to me before with the old style Google play and from this point I decided to get Parandroid and it was fine until the update
