All share cast dongle s/w update - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all.
Running Omega 9. Removed all bloat ware during installation now this all share cast dongle s /w update has appeared as of yesterday. Any idea what it is & how to remove?
It's shows in play store as installed but can't find in phone anywhere.

If u select it does it have the option to uninstall it?

No option to remove which is weird. I've had Omega 9 since release and this hasn't been there, now all of a sudden it is. As far as I know, it can't update unless I have all share cast app installed. So for now it's just there.
Looked in root, but it's not there.

Weird very weird

Solved!
Removed FWUpgrade.apk from root & now it's gone from play store too.

Uninstalled Allshare cast dongle s/w update
I replied as a guest before joining xda. Don't see that reply, so will reply again. I don't recall downloading this sharing app because I don't have the device (dongle) installed on my TV. Therefore, it's a useless app for me.
I just went to task manager, downloads and it popped up with other d/l apps. Had option to uninstall, so I tapped it and app was uninstalled.
Not savvy enough to check further (like root, or whatever; don't really know what root is). Will assume I fixed it unless it pops back up.

[Q] Googleears on Nexus 4?

All,
The Nexus 4 does not have Google ears installed however in /system/app, googleears.apk is shown, but will not install.
Is there a solution to installing this app? I've pulled it and tried to install via adb but it fails..

Its a widget.

Yes i'm aware of that.. I'm saying that it isn't installed, and will not install... I'm asking why.
it is installed.. it's a widget. attempting to install a system app from a file explorer in your system folder will fail as it is already installed.

It is not installed.. If it was, then installing via adb would tell me it's installed.

Perhaps it's frozen and not available in your location. If you're rooted you can unfreeze it using Package Enabler in play store

It would be this.
It's frozen for UK phones. Unfreeze with Titanium Backup then feel free to add the widget
Strange that they don't enable this widget now that Google Music is available in the UK. I don't fancy wiping my phone just to root so I can unfreeze this. For now I'm using the free Sony TrackID app which has always worked well on previous phones.
Don't have my n4 yet but is it avail in the UK. I know I could get it to work but it was not stock on the gnex gsm.
Looks like I took too long writing my comment its already been answered lol
Just the same as the gnex then oh well unfreeze it.

I too am in the same position as OP. It's in /system/app but doesn't come up as a widget option and isn't considered installed according to android.
What's weird is that it worked on my Galaxy Nexus months ago without any modifications.
Code:
su
pm enable com.google.android.ears
It's good to use 'til next reboot.

Ya I have that same problem too It works just like what you said next reboot kills it
cant defros
Hi!
i have a problem. i cant defrost google ears on my nexus 4 with titanium backup pro. google ears is crossed out!? its not possible to push the frost/defrost/uninstall button. Phone is rooted. i live in austria and bought the n4 in germany (maybe its important)
i made 2 screenshots.
Thanks for help!
Use the command I posted early from a terminal instead.
It's weird, I am in Australia, I have a Nexus 7 and Nexus 4 and I don't have the widget on either. I got the Nexus 7 on second shipment from JB HiFi and than I suggested it to a friend, who got it 3 months after, from Officeworks and he has the app
PS he doesn't even know what rooting is.

Tried putting this in an init.d script but it was still frozen. Must be a race condition, i.e. init.d script running before some other process freezes it
I've found a work around.
After doing the enable command, you will be able to update Ears from the Play Store and then it will persist.
You won't be able to search for it, so use this link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.ears

Nope. I enabled it and Google Play tells me the app isn't available in my country with no options to update it.

Update to allshare cast dongle software

Today there is an update available for the allshare cast dongle.
But once i connected my dongle after downloading the update, no message popped up for the update to dongle.
Does someone know howmthe update works? And whats changed with todays release?
Sent from my GT-N8013 using Tapatalk
Mine is running v 1.2.2102. I uninstalled the updates and reinstalled them. Not noticed anything different yet.
If your dongle was already on FW Ver LJ02 (as mine was when shipped) nothing should happen. Has anyone on a previous ASCD version seen it upgrade to LJ02?
You can check the latest version if you go into the app via settings > app manager and click on the app.

That's unrelated to the version of the firmware on the ASCD, which this app is apparently trying to update.

Yep, mine did. It updated as soon as I connected. It took roughly 2-3 minutes.
Can't remember what the previous version was.

The Allshare Cast dongle software update app will update the firmware for those dongles that were on the old firmware. For everyone else on the latest firmware LJ02 it was a software update to version 1.2.2102
This is what it looks like.

Strangely it updated the first time i connected it. This week the app on my phone got an update this week. Thinking that it would update again when I connected it...it didnt update.
Was hoping the update would fix the connection error we get on custom roms guess not. Samsung needs to get this fixed!

Custom roms? As in?
Have you reset the update counter by using triangle away? Allshare cast wont work with a flash counter of 1 or above.

This. It's actually intentional (for better or for worse), as it's DRM related. We should just be glad Chainfire figured out the method behind "Triangle Away"!

Same here....I am also rooted and have clockworkmod 1.0.3.3....and once I install it it brings me to my recovery which I chose to not install the zip.....still curious what the update was?....in my opinion... there is nothing wrong with the phone....which makes curious even more what it was?.....but I don't think it would of broke root....even if it did...it only takes 5minutes to root....

It will break root if installed. This thread has the flashable update and will keep root. Also talks about some of the changes peeps have seen after flashing/installing update: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2257116&page=7

With stock recovery it should still install. However if you removed/froze any of the stock apps that can keep it from installing.
upgrade
I can not update the s4 cut the process

One issue with unchecking show notifications for the "Google Services Framework" is gtalk and txt messages aren't passed through with notifications either.
I don't use gtalk and I use handcent, so I didn't know that. Thanks for the heads up.

MiiTomo App From Nintendo

Has anyone tried the Nintendo Miitomo app? Although it's not in the US play store yet, I was able to sideload after downloading from Nintendo UK. It installs with no problem, but when I try opening it, it crashes with "Unfortunately Miitomo has stopped." Tried rebooting to see if memory issue but no luck. I have systemless root, so not sure if that's the problem, or that it's incompatible with the Nexus or Marshmallow.
I tried it and got the same result

Just installed MiiTomo from US Play Store but doesn't work on my Nexus 6P (Systemless Root.) But it is working on my HTC One M9 which is not rooted. Can anyone else with a 6P that isn't rooted try and see if it works for you?
It is definitely due to Root, but I just used Rootcloak, an Xposed module, and it is now working perfectly. Stock Nexus 6P, latest security update, rooted, running Xposed (obviously)

So your using standard root? I am using systemless root and don't have Xposed installed because of Android Pay.

Gotcha. I am indeed using systemless root, and am not sure how to get around this without Xposed, as Xposed is almost entirely the reason I root in the first place. (I do miss NFC payments, but not enough to get rid of Xposed)

Thanks. Am content using on my M9, just have to be on WiFi or swap out my Sim Card from my 6p.
No luck in an unrooted 6p
In my case, the play store says it is not compatible with any of my devices. I sideloaded it and it crashes on start. Any solutions yet? Thanks!
UPDATE!: I managed to make it work by uninstalling the SuperSU app. I had it there even if my phone is not rooted. But now the app opens and gives the 801-1949 error
there a xposed module miitomo security bypass works fine after Installed that

I'm using root cloak but I have to turn my internet signal off 3-to-4 seconds after opening the app in order to prevent force close. It'll say no-data connection. That's when I turn my signal back on and tap OK. Recently though I can't get a response to my screen selections. All I can do is spin the room camera view...

No problem. I now seem to have full functionality without toggling my internet signal switch now that I've rebooted. My only problem now is that "Nintendo Missions" force closes upon tap. But I can access THAT part from my browser so, no sweat...?
Im rooted on N preview, downloaded the App from Playstore and it works perfectly.

Try to download the app's apk (maybe a different version than the latest). I don't know what to expect but if this were my case I would try it.
Other Googla Apps working fine?

This could be really annoying specially at a new phone.
I know this is very uncomfortable (specially if you have done all the settings etc.) but the next steps would be factory reset or flashing the stock Honor 8 rom...
I solved the issue now.
I removed my google account and signed in again. but for the first time I had unmarked the auto sync option(Cause I hate auto-sync It was draining the battery on my nexus badly). Anyway This time I chose auto sync when it prompt before sign in to google account and It worked.
Thanks for the responses again
