[Q] Can we get this app to run on our N4? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello All,
Can anybody tell me if there is a way to get a "Verizon Only" app, called Indycar 13, to run on our N4?
As a motor racing fan, I would love to be able to run this app while watching the races, but of course the Play Store says its not compatible.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS52encuaW5keWNhciJd
Is it really not able to run on our phones? Or is it simply a matter of getting it into our phone.
Thanks for any help.

Why dont u try Market Faker application. You can fake your carrier , if u r desperate about using this app

I'm no expert so please this is just spit balling, but I think market hacker will only allow him to download the app, same as if he simply side loaded the .apk from somewhere. Once in the app it will "detect" for my lack of technical terms, for a Verizon Sig of some sort and and to register it to a corresponding number. I remember way back when warez sites were really out in the open, somebody posting hacked versions of vzw NFL app, where you could watch the red zone channel on Sunday or NFL network any other time...and it would work for a week or two but then vzw would notice the same # being registered hundreds of times and **** it down....I assume this would be similar.

1) Hopefully the hacked app maker was nice enough to include a function to change the fake Verizon #.
2) Find a friend with a Verizon # and use that #.
3) Profit!

I don't think it works that way...pretty sure the app has to be edited with working numbers and what not.

Any way to fake location?

I'm just wondering if there's any way to make my phone think I'm at a different location than I am. Specifically I'm wondering about the NBA League Pass app which blacks out all the games for users outside the United States, is there any way to trick my phone into thinking I'm somewhere else?
I think your post should be in the general area. Look for a proxy program on the market and use a USA proxy. Many free proxy's out there.
proxies are useless
i tried
app checks some other way

Maybe you can leave your phone at home while you leave the country?
LOL! Sorry... I couldn't help it.
I think that you can enable Mock Location but I'm not sure and what that does or how to take advantage of the feature.
try this maybe?
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/location/index.html
The mock location is removed once you exit that app... its been tried... cant seem to find a way to get it to work.
And how would leaving your phone at home work?
A) Were I don't live in the US
B) ... no point even putting the reason here....
lol...
anyways no idea how to get it done, but playoffs today!!!

Geolocation Faker (Fake Location)

I am begging someone to look into some app that can fool the 'Geolocation' on the nexus one and report a different location. So anytime an app checks my location using wifi , it will bock that. Sort of like a proxy, but not for the webrowser, rather for the phone itself.
Kind of what market enabler does, but for the phone as a whole
I really would like NBA League pass to work in Canada, and even US residents would like to view games that are blacked out in thier home towns.
The iphone has the same problem but its been hacked ages ago, with an app called 'Fake Location'
I will glady donate any $ neccessary, I'm sure its not a very hard task but its just not very famous/ demanded feature
Thank you, Samer.
I would also like this! B4 I switched from my iphone I was loving 2 be able 2 watch blacked out games! Since this season is basically over hopefully it be ready 4 next season

[Q] Words with friends update

The new update for Words is showing as incompatible in the market. Does anybody have a way to get it on the A500?
I borrowed a friend's phone for 5 minutes and used astro to copy it off, along with the Sony live view app..
No idea why it's saying incompatible, but it works fine

Looks like its back on market now and updated for tablets finally!

think it's the cross device compatibility, not to mention the 72 hours per turn... you don't have to jump on right away to take your turn and the older crowd can jump in.
i have a few games with friends and their parents... check it once a day, and i'm good
if they made a GOOD RTS on android that offers those 2 options and i'll be happy.
Does anyone else's crash (the tablet version) after you submit the word and the ad shows up?
I should be happy though at least this version I can use the blank tiles, without it crashing.

Orange Quick Tap Wallet app and Barclaycard NFC

Hello XDA
My Wife offically got the Orange Quick Tap Wallet app installed and working...i found it funny how it then installs a barclaycard app then after and its actually the barc app that does all the work, i then tryed taking the sim outs the phone and tryed in mcds and it worked
so the contactless quick tap sim orange make customers order isent needed aslong as once the barclaycard app is installed on your phone ...I am wondering if theres a way to get the barclayscard app from her stock galaxy s3 phone and transfer it over to my CM10 factory unlocked unbranded o2 Samsung Galaxy S3?
i now know its the barclays app that we all want, also the whole £50 customers are meant to get we both dontknow whos meant to give us the credit for her s3 atm
anyways exciting knowing there might be a way to get the barclay app off her phone and onto every other app
You could try to see if it installs a separate app and pull that apk file
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
no thats what i mean it has installed as a seperate app lol but i dontknow how to take it off the phone to try on a diffrent handset
do you have root? The best way to get it would be the app root explorer then you can see what app you need to take from /data/app

i how do i pull the apk file?
im dying to get this working and share with all, greedy networks trying to make out contactless sims and apps are need when all thats needed is this barclaycard app

Download the app root explorer from the market, its a paid app but you get 15 minutes to refund.
Once downloaded open it up and go to /data/app - look on the list of apps installed and find the one you think it is, long press it and go copy then at the top of the page press that button to go back two levels and then go to sdcard and paste it there.
from there you can use whatever app you normally do to access your sd and upload the file for all of us.
its all a ****ing marketing ploy to get u to think its all orange, when its not even the orange app thats does the work...all the orange app is there for is to then direct u to the barclaycard app lol total joke big time
I'm really interested to see if we can use this on other networks. I think it's silly that the technology is there for all to enjoy, but some company has decided better...
Do you know if it allows you to use any cards, or is it just barclaycards?
damn wife is now on a night out lol
iv downloaded the root explorer app but need her phone to get the app lol
ill report my progress in a few hours and with luck ill upload the file here on xda for all
yes it has allowed her to attached any card to the service
hers is a lloyds visa debit,
Did you say her phone was rooted? (I guess it will need to be to pull the app) It's rooted and this NFC payment app works still?
yes her phone was already rooted, just waiting to install root explorer onto her phone when i see her tonyt, then ill try it on my s3 and my nexus 7 tablet,
see iknow when using the orange app you need to turn off wifi cause its trying to read the network but once u then launch the barclaycard app u can use network or wifi hence at the time of using it with no sim we had no sim in and used wifi to connect and worked fine as before, im hoping to get this running on my rooted s3 with cm10 and am on the o2 network so it it works i think its safe to assume it will work for all...well lets hope so iv been waiting since forever to get google wallet here in the uk and so much for the olympics fail of no app i guess google will probs never release the google wallet app here in the uk kinda like how we may never get google music and proper google video google mags
anyways if this works from my experience of using it today it works perfect, the app it as good as it needs to be and incase you all wanna know its just a pre-payed card you top-up kinda like what google wallet had but hopefully they will replace that with just direct card payments soon,
i wonder when other networks will get there nfc wallet apps out, sucks i cant try this rytnow she wont be home until after midnight so i guess ill be up all nyt getting this working
Shouldn't she be in the kitchen doing the dishes?

Well I downloaded it from the play store after I put my orange sim in the s3 but it would not work. I looked on the orange site and they state there that you need a different SIM.

lmfao!
the orange app yes but its the barclays app thats then downloaded thru the orange quick tap wallet app that is the 1 i am talking about...anyways shouldnt be too long and i can attempt to get this working on my cm10 o2 handset with any special type of sim
k guys iv been trying to do this for the first time...i have used root explorer and managed to find the apk file its 3mb and copyed and attempted to install on my s3 but during the installation it ends saying not installed
do i need to also find the app data from her phone aswell?

NFL Mobile + root = no go???

So as some of you may already know, the latest update for the NFL Mobile app (came out this morning I think) has officially killed its functionality with rooted (or "non stock Android") devices. A story on Android Police can be see here.
At any rate, I saw a recent post on a GSIII forum (here)where the user claimed to have a workaround which, among other things, involved renaming the superuser.apk, however if you're using CM nowadays then you'll know there really isn't a separate apk - instead it is now integrated into the rom. That being said, does anyone have any idea similar to this that might work for tricking the app into thinking it isn't running on a rooted unit? I have no clue myself, but seeing as how no one has started a dedicated thread for this in the forum of the current Google flagship phone, I thought I'd get things started.
Thanks in advance people!
Well I guess it looks like no one has any ideas...? Oh well, a rare swing-and-a-miss for solutions in the xda community
A quick fix would be to just find the apk for an older version and install that one. That's what I'm currently trying to do, there's no reason for then to block us from using it just because we're rooted.

Well yeah, I mean I already uninstalled and then restored a backed up version of the app using Titanium Backup. The problem is - and if you've been a user of the NFL apps over the last year or two then you'll know this - that the NFL app is not like most apps where each upgrade just adds some incremental upgrades or changes. With this app the upgrades are typically pushed out right before the start of the key timeframes of the NFL season: usually an update right before preseason; another before the start of the regular season; another at the start of the playoffs; another right before the Super Bowl; and once more right before the draft in April. Each update is specific to that time period of the season and usually contains the critical information/tweaks/additions/UI alterations specific for that segment of the year. Point being, after missing an update or two, the app becomes extremely outdated and eventually useless. And that's why, in the mid-to-long term, just using the older version of the apk unfortunately isn't a useful alternative. Damn you NFL! Now we just have to hope the xda community will come to the rescue as they usually are able to do

Ooooh gotcha. I didn't realize that that's how NFL ran their app. That's really annoying.
i'm not rooted, but that does seem like somebody went off the deep end with this app. rooting a device won't hurt their revenue, in fact, it will probably increase it from allowing ALL Android (and iOS) devices access the app. instead, they're cutting off access to a HUGE chunk of their fans, present and future. in essence, they're biting the hand that feeds them.
i voted the app down in the app store out of principal alone.
I am extremely displeased with this as well and am searching for a solution. Leave it to Verizon to try to control how you use YOUR phone.

From what I gather there are two different versions - the one that comes on Verizon phones, and the one that anyone else can grab from the Play Store. I have the Play Store version (as a TMo customer).

Awesome, sounds good
Just in posting my thread I got a ton of hits of people freaking out about the new app...lol
FYI, they have fixed the app and it is now working perfectly fine on rooted devices strait from the play store
I might be the only one it's not working for. Wondering if anyone can help.
I cannot get 95% of the buttons to work in the Fantasy section of the app. Not only that, when I said 'to hell with the app' and went to their mobile site (which looks exactly like the app), I got the same thing... 95% of the buttons on the mobile site wouldn't do anything.
Now, on my N7, everything works fine.
Any ideas?
Edit: It was Ad Away. Can't use the app while it's running. Now I'll try to find the hosts file and see if I can edit the NFL entries out of it.
