[Q] Motorola camera app comptability - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Why is the Motorola Camera app from Google Play not available for the nexus 4?It says that it requires a 4.4.2 device,which my N4 is,but I am unable to install it simply because "it's not compatible".Please enlight me about this issue.I don't know,I might not have fully understood something about the app and its compatibility.

I did...tried to install various versions,all failed.

One of the older versions is working 100%. You just have to copy the apk into your system folder and then either wait for it to appear in app drawer or just reboot. I loved this app on my previous phone but not on n4. Its only advantage is the long touch burst mode with which you take continue shots very fast and clear. If you still can't find a working version I might have it in my drive folder so just pm me to give you a link.

Netflix now streaming on my atrix, not perfect color though...

I installed the updated Netflix app released today and now I'm able to stream movies, the color is off a little though.
Here is the link to apk

i see what you mean..i have this green bar going across the screen in the bottom. colors aren't that great..but eh. i can deal with this for now.
watching Mortal Kombat..
Tried austin powers, plays very smoothly but with strange colors

it's the video decoding due to our phones, probably because of the tegra. this has been known since the netflix app was first released (FYI it's been working on our phones since then, the APK was posted in the apps forum)
Still a pretty awesome step in the right direction.
Doesn't android have a graphics layer that's standard across releases that developers can code to instead of hardware specific? Greenbar is pretty annoying.

It does, although this is a video decoder issue.

Your old news statement is old news fyi.
The supplied link does not work for me. The app downloads, but it wont install, saying that the app was not downloaded from a trusted source. Does anyone have a fix, or advice?

you need to be rooted and have sideloading enabled
Damn....
So no options for us 1.83 stock users. Well I guess. I'll read about rooting and side loading this weekend.

"This app is incompatible with your Asus Nexus 7."

Hi, this is my first time posting. There are some apps I want to install on my Nexus 7 (mostly games), but when I go to the Google Play site and select one of them it says, "This app is incompatible with your Asus Nexus 7." Is there an easy solution for this? Does Google play to fix this in an upcoming release of Android OS? I am running the stock Jelly Bean. I saw some threads mention you can install the apps from the package file if you can access it on another Android device, but that isn't an option for me. Also I'd prefer a solution that doesn't involve rooting the phone and installing a custom ROM. One thread mentioned doing this so you could change the UI mode, but they didn't say if this fixed the problem with Google Play not letting them install certain apps. If there is no other solution is anyone able to confirm that rooting the phone and changing the UI mode fixed the problem? I've never rooted a device before.
Yeah I can't get Antutu Benchmark, what the hell.
I think its problem with app requesting permission to things that don't exist on nexus.
Example would be in line (camera) the back one.

I, too, am on the same boat.
Just purchased my Nexus 7 a few days ago, non-rooted.
Trying to stock up on apps. So far, everything has been fine and dandy. I figured out to sideload programs (Flash, more specifically), but now I've run into a problem where I'm trying to install the Kijiji Canada App, but it says the Application is incompatible on the Nexus 7. I've searched for an APK for the Kijiji App, to no avail.
Is rooting my only option? I can't see features that the app would need that isn't compatible on my Nexus 7.... as it's just a classified searching program from eBay.
Thanks for your time.
if you have root, change these lines in your build.prop file to this..
ro.product.model=Nexus 7
ro.product.brand=Google
ro.product.name=nakasi

Not sure how that would be the reason behind it...
Since Apps that do not access things such as the "inline camera" are being listed as not compatible..
Aside from the Back Camera, what is missing thats not missing from other devices? MicroSD? My Galaxy Nexus doesn't have a MicroSD slot, but I'm able to download the app to it, but not my Nexus 7. (example: 80% of the EA Games - Madden12 most of all)

It's one of the reasons. Tablet v phone layout, dpi and JB are amongst the many other reasons.
If you have access another Android device you can download the incompatible app to that
device (if it's compatible, obv) from the play store and use APK Extractor to extract the .apk
Then install it to the N7. You can at least suck it and see if the app works or why it won't.

I have an Evo 4G (rooted with CM7). What values do I need to type to make it compatible with apps on the market. Almost none of my apps are compatible and I can't always find APK files.
Here is the error: This app is incompatible with your Sprint HTC PC36100.
This thread says it has to do with screen density: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1272510
I have changed mine so I'm going to try that.

Then you probably shouldn't be asking your question in the Nexus 7 forum.

I fixed it and wrote a big long guide explaining how, but it won't let me post it because I haven't posted enough in the forum.
This was the case with ebuddy xms, so I copied the apk from my SIII and installed without problems. I think it isnt compatible because the nexus doesnt have a camera. It feels like google could have solved this in an easy way of some sorts.

I would also like to find a fix for this issue. I cant even install Amazon Mobile, or Craigslist Mobile. I use these two apps all the time and it REALLY sucks that I can not install them on my Nexus 7!!!!

I was installing a bunch of apps tonight and I was shocked when I saw that I can't install the Craigslist Mobile App
After unlocking and rooting I have the same problems. Very annoying.
Sent with Tapatalk
It has nothing to do with being unlocked/rooted. The devs of those apps have decided that the Nexus 7 lacks the necessary hardware to run the apps, specifically a front-facing camera.

I've been downloading the apps to my gnex then using titanium backup to send the backup through dropbox. It's sucks, but that seems to be the easiest way for me.

Just install the APK, it's the same as the one you'll automatically get anyway
It's not a problem, just be patient if you don't want to install the APK. I haven't got it yet either.

From what I have read, its only rolling out in the U.S. at this point in time. I'm sure the rest of us will get it soon enough.

Yes, it can be, so long as you're sideloading an appropriately signed APK (I'd suggest Android Police; they have a running list of them).

I hate to say this, but what exactly was the point of either of these posts? Neither answered the question (which takes about two seconds), and "sucks" is a huge matter of personal preference. Maybe OP happens to really like the new variants; either way, if Op wants to upgrade, that's their call.

Nothing in your post says what rom you use, let alone how you installed google apps. So it really depends. For example if you installed Slimbean + SlimGapps for example, your play store among other apps from that package will not update because they are modified from the official source, so there is that factor to consider.

ahh, i see. well, nice
but, i do have some feedback. my new camera was in the system, but i moved it out as a user app last week. it drained battery a lot hevier than before(old cam), and the camera daemon used more battery as well. i tried figuring out how to make it use less, but couldnt figure it out. i moved it out of the system to a user app last week, and now it uses much less battery

strange, I use the camera in system with all my rom without any problems, I have no problems of excessive consumption ... well everything works very well
This is useful for people that don't wish to rely on Google services like the play store. I myself am paranoid on a much smaller scale, but people who are into security and experience paranoia have much different setups than a typical Android user.
