Getjar

I had Getjar installed on my Elocity when I bought it. If I click on the Getjar icon, I get taken to a page on the Internet that no longer exists. How can I change Getjar so that when I click on it, I will get taken to the Getjar site on the Internet. Is Getjar an okay app, or is there a better one? (I don't believe I can delete the Getjar app from this Elocity A7.)
Also, would anyone know a good, free, weasther app that I could download that would show the weather (in my vicinity) on the Home screen (background) , similar to the time that appears there now?

amazon, google android market
use this to get android market working http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1431967
after you root the device you can install the amazon app store and buy the root explorer if you don't get it through other means. it's a useful app, buy it. you can find the getjar program in /system/app, where you drop off the google apps. be careful when you remove the default apps, try to force stop them before uninstalling. 2 of them can't be stopped(one is fring and i can't remember the other, i think it had a light blue icon) and after they are uninstalled will give an error that will keep popping up, just hard reset and continue.
for the weather app, just search 'weather widget' in either app store. keep in mind that app will be a battery drain.

Thank you. Sorry, but I am new at all of this (tablets, etc.) and don't know what you mean by "root," "drop off," "default apps," "force stop," "error popping up," etc. Really confusing and I do not want to make my grandson's A7 unstable, etc.

Is there not a Search button at the bottom of the marketplace screen? Never heard of this problem before...
You could also try generating a QR code for the Windows Phone Store link to the YouTube app, pressing the Bing button on your phone, choosing the Bing vision option and point your phone's camera at the QR code. When you click the link the marketplace will open and go to the YouTube app page.

If you connect your windowslive account to the http://www.windowsphone.com/store , you can directly click on "install" and your phone will get the app with a little delay

Starting today you need Windows Phone 7.5 to use Marketplace

I think you need to update your phone (Windows 7.5 at last)
See "Starting today you need Windows Phone 7.5 to use Marketplace"
sorry I cannot post a link (new at XDA but you can search google for it)
Tell me if it works,

[Q] Problem with Google map! Any help?

Hi everyone,
I will try to make it short to not bother you reading this post.
I made ne app using google map, got my api key, all is fine.
When I test my app on my phone via the SDK, the map appear and all is ok.
I compiled my app, send the apk on the google market, I download my app, installed it and now google map doesn't appear?
I check the statistics of my api key on the console developer of google... no requests anymore!
Did somebody can tell me what to do please? If you want to try the app you can find it on google play under the name Croatia Real Estate or find it buy my developer name pgx design.
Thanks for you time and help, wish you all the best.
Guy.

Help Pairing the OUKITEL A28

Ok so I am no dummy. I have an LG G Watch on my LG G4. I am having a problem pairing *COMPLETELY* my Oukitel A28 with the MediaTek Smart app.
I tried this on the LG G4 and LG G2 (thinking because I have my LG G Watch/G4 might be causing the problem). I paired the phone. It is connected. It synced the contacts. I downloaded the App and went through the motions of selecting notification access and bla bla bla.
But the App never connects. All I see is "connecting..." I deleted the BT profile and tried to load this up multiple ways but all end in the same result.
The weird thing is calls and some things actually go through the watch. I can play music and make/take calls. But all of the other features like Messaging and stuff just says "Pair phone first".
I am not sure exactly what is going on. There are 2 A28 devices found on the phones. Both are paired. Seems I am missing something. I tried this on 2 phones with the same results.

Hi Player911,
I was in your same shoes just this morning but Google helped out.
You may follow the step-by-step guide for the watch at China Gadgets Reviews.
All the credit goes to Stefan Danut.:highfive:
After following these steps, I was able to explore 100% of the watch's functionalities. It is definitely one of the best clones out there.
Hope it helps.

Hi Kempest,
Can you post a link to the instructions you are referring to? I'm having the exact same problem with my A28.

Pairing the A28
Just got mine today (A28) and experienced the same problems.
Solution: Install an updated Mediatek App.
I found the update here: Google Chinagadgetsreviews. Search for A28 hands on first impressions. Sorry, but XDA won't let me post the link!
Look for this text
You can also download the latest version v.2015.07.06 of MediaTekSmartDevice.apk & speechengine.apk from here or from here (12 MB)
The "here" and "here" are links. I clicked on the second (using PC) and downloaded the newer App (RAR Format). Unzipped the RAR and then I copied it to my Android and installed.

Hi,
I have a problem installing the mediatek smart device apk on my oneplus running mokee rom. I was able to download the newest version but get a message "app not installed" every time I try installing it. Anyone having the same problem?
Thanks.

Clarification
After downloading the APK file, you must go to your downloads and run the file to install.

Cool suggestions. I just installed the app from the play store as the built in scanner barcode lead me to a chinese website where the Android version was not loading the page properly.
Kind of silly that the newest working app is out there but the play store has a broken non working version. One would think that would be high priority.

Clarification 2
I installed the PlayStore version first, only to find that it wouldn't function correctly. I used a PC to download the newer version, in zipped and transferred it to the Android. Once on the Android, I just had to execute the APK file. Note my instructions of 11/08/2015.

I have the oukitel a28 aswell, and stand alone i have to say its a pretty good watch for the price. BUT i cant get it to sync to healthkit on my iphone running ios 8.4, anyone else using this watch with iphone?, i can pair it as headset and notifications, but what i really bought it for was the health stats. Ive also read somewhere about some other sync app on the phone that would work with mediatek chip devices, but cant seem to find it again? suggestions please, i know about Mediatek smartdevice and Fundo wear, none of those will sync with ios healthkit..

Hello there, thanks for the suggestion, thats the QR-code link, have tried both fundo wear and the mediatek sync app, none of those sync the health stats, and fundo's servers are very slow and fail most of the times. Such a shame with the sync, when the watch seems great otherwise.

Internet Speedtest for android wear

I have been looking for an app to test the 3g connection on my smartwatch but have not been able to find anything. Does anyone know an app that will do this on android wear?

I know this is an older thread, but I've figured out a way to do this (using my LG Urbane 2 LTE at least). If you have a browser app open it and do a search for "speedtest". The first result should be the Google speedtest which has a "Run Speed Test" button right in the search results. Press it and voila, your speed test will run. The page doesn't really fit on the screen properly while testing, but the results show up nicely enough.
