Who has gotten Google Play Games yet?

Hello,
I'm running the stock rooted ROM and have yet to get Google Play Games on my phone. Have any of you received the update that has enabled it yet?

I was under the impression it was already on most phones, Google sneaked it in under everyone's noses as a service.
Check out some of the play store games and they should have a section that says things like leaderboards or achievements....
Unless I am missing something?

Check your Google play services app. If its version 3.1. You have it.

Because I don't have that

Don't think so. It seems like it's integrated with Google services. Play services will show up on games that have been updated with play services.

It's an API Service, not a specific game.
Google Settings > Play Games
This might help:

So there is no need to download this separately? how do I check it's there?

[Q] Play Uno GameLoft on S4

I want to play Uno (Gameloft Game) but its not compatible with Samsung Galaxy S4 in the playstore... I want to know if there is a way to play it... thanks a lot.
This is the game PlayStore Link

If you are rooted you can try renaming your device name in build.prop.
There actually was a topic about this a while ago, ill see if I can find the info.
Basicly comes down to fooling the playstore into thinking you have a phone that can install that app.
Worked for me on most games, and the games actually work lol. Even though, playstore first said it would not.

It works for installation , but the game is played in a quarter of the screen. Looks so small... =/
I try with I9100, now i'm going to try with i9300.
Edit: With i9300 is not working too, its looks like 2/3 of screen size. I need a device with HD screen and access to game.

Then it's gamelofts fault. The resolution of the s4 is to high
If you have the xposed framework installed with per app dpi.
You could try to set it to a different resolution or just full screen.
Don't know if it works though, doesn't Hurt to try

In UNO you can play between devices connected at the same wifi or Bluetooth and you don't need a Facebook account for that.

Polaris

With the included Polaris I can't make changes to files etc... I downloaded 4.0 from a Samsung S4 but it keeps force closing. Does anyone have an apk for a full version that will work with a T-Mobile G2 that you wouldn't mind posting?
Thanks

I have used Polaris for a long time. I like the interface better than others. Just preference I guess.

Polaris office is a paid app. You can find it at amazon apps for $3.99
Here is the link Polaris office 4.0

As said. Included polaris is just a free version of it..means its only for reading. Also I wouldnt try to ask for warez apps here.

I was using Dolphin browser when I first tried the link. It would take me to the app download page and no further. I just tried the stock browser and it worked perfectly. Thanks again!

I couldn't get BBM working on my Sprint SGT 3 7Inch SM-T217S. In the play store it says it's incompatible & when I restored it from a backup I can open it but I have to either download an app that it wants me to do or I think it was share it did both & still wasn't able to login to my BBM Account so screw it I guess. I lived without them for years till a couple months ago. Guess I'll go on without them again
