Hi I purchased the Xperia Overlay firmware for my xperia play, and when I try to follow the instructions on their wiki page (http://www.xperiaoverlay.com/wiki.html) it tells me to download the update center I purchased. So I looked through the files in the firmware I purchased/downloaded, but no update center to be found. I looked all over their site, nothing. I tried contacting them via the support form, gives me an error when submitting. And the link to the forum on their website, does not do anything when you click it. Can anyone help me out here?
Any help to get me started would be appreciated as I'm not terribly impressed with their website.
The overlay update center app should be in you received mails where you got the download link. Two Links should be there one for windows and other for Linux.
I recently saw that the overlay was free for XP. So I went through the purchase process but never received my email with a download link. I even went back and did it a second time. No response. My emails have not been responded to either. Any suggestions? It's not like I paid for the software as it was or still is free. Suggestions?

Not sure if this has been previously posted or if its just a regular app now, but I saw it in the new signed rom and it works on the incredible.. I will update if i find anything else that looks updated.
Its taken from this: http://android.clients.google.com/packages/passion/signed-passion-ota-42745.dc39ca1f.zip
Thanks for posting this. I had v1.1.1. Downloaded the free music and am listening to it right now.
HTC Incredible (Stock)
Can I ask how are you downloading the music for free? When I select a song I'm prompted to log-in and when I do so, it asks me to set up the 1-click payment.
EDIT: Nevermind, I see that the full discount was applied. However, I'm getting a lot of network errors when I know I'm connected. anyone else seeing this? Thanks in advance.
I seem to be getting errors too. I am on 3G. It reads:
"Failed due to network error. Retry when you are in a mobile network or Wi-Fi coverage area; roaming downloads are not supported."
I hit ok and it continues. I tried another free song and it downloads.
Shazam also does not recognize the app. It prompts me to go to the website when I hit the Amazon MP3 button.
I haven't gone so far as downloading the music but I do get the errors when searching sometimes. Seems like it might want really good signal for some reason because when I went into town it started working.
I haven't had any problems so far, been using it on both wifi and network and downloaded a full album (free one)

That's an issue with Shazam. It defaults to taking you to the website. I found it a little odd on my Droid and have seen that it's also the case on my Incredible. Contact the developers and ask for it to be added as a feature.

I emailed them I will let you know what they say.
How many free downloads does it give?
The ones I downloaded are the free song of the day.
I know there are more free songs. If you search you will find them.

I was using your apk for a few days now, but I just noticed that they finally added it to the market on the Incredible. So we don't have to go hunting for the most updated apks anymore. I'm liking version 1.7, it doesn't force close on me anymore.
This the answer I got from Shazam Support.
"Hi there
From talking to our Android development team about this issue; they’ve informed me that the fault actually lies with the Amazon application, not Shazam. We’re hoping that the Amazon application is updated soon to restore the previous level of functionality with Shazam.
Updates to the Android Shazam application are also due soon - You will be notified in-app when these updates are ready to download. I’m afraid I don’t currently have an exact date for release."
I installed the Amazon MP3 from the market and now Shazam sees it.

This app is in the market now.
I updated to 2.2 and this Amazon mp3 crap is on there and wont uninstall through normal means (same with Wave secure) How do you uninstall these *locked* apps? I thought being able to remove this crud was the whole point of rooting the device? :s

hi,
posted in this nexus1 forum after searching for problem, but I have an x10 and hoping an x10 user might help
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=700371
I purchased Beautiful widgets, but when I try to install I get 'download unsuccessful'.
I have deleted market cache, and rebooted but made no difference..
I am waiting on a reply from the dev, but nothing yet - anyone have any idea why it might not be working or how i could fix?
[edit] more detail:
i purchased/downloaded/installed beautiful widgets successfully. then uninstalled and got a refund, after trying a few other widgets I decided to go back to beautiful widget. Went through the purchase fine, and it says purchased in downloads, but will not download successfully to install
[/edit]
anyone have any thoughts please ?!
Hey
It may or may not help, but if your a UK x10 owner something that worked for me was on your pc log into your google account and switch from googlemail.co.uk to gmail.co.uk and back again fixed my problem with the marketplace. Tho i did have to do it a coupla times to get it to work.
I think this only works if you from UK tho not sure, anywho hope it helps
Dan
I would really make an effort to contact the dev, it seems there's a problem with the market which is confusing Google if youve bought it or not. Anyway, the Dec will be able to sort any confusion out effectively.

Hi I have had the same problem with a game that I purchased, the dev told me that there have been some problems lately with the market and protected apps, and to wait a few days and see.
I solved this when I logged into gmail (which I don't use other than for market). This issue was caused by fraud prevention on my Credit Card, reconfirming the card worked and the App was installed automatically..
Simple fix, but I'm amazed the market doesn't give better error reporting!
Thanks for input!!
go to 0.arenabg.com (a torrent site) and search for android app...i those app there is a butiful widget pack..
I was able to download a few files fine yesterday but now when I try getting any app from the marketplace I get the following message:
Your apps are already in use on the maximum number of devices. Use the zune software on your computer to update your devices.
UPDATE:
I am getting cant get this info right now. Check back in a little while
any idea why? how to fix?
Thanks
I have the same problem too. Not good MS. Why am I making apps if people can't download them?
EDIT: I'm using an HD7.
EDIT2: I tweeted MS and they said it was because they were doing maintenance on zune. It seems to work now.
Hi guys,
I created an application that I published to the Play Store about a month ago, and just last night I had received an email from filedir.com saying..
Information about your app "Bing Rewards Automator PRO" (Android) has been added on FileDir.com

I found this kind of odd. I hadn't sent out to anybody to have my application published on their website, so it couldn't have been from that. My application is not very large scale either, so I don't know why they would have singled me out. I was hoping some of you had gotten a similar e-mail from them, saying that they had 'added' your app to their website, and if anything arose out of having it on there. Just seems odd to me.
Thanks

Not your app was published, but "Information about your app". Download links go to the Google Play Market.
i got this too on all of my apps o_o
yes, i too got the mail and i have checked on their website also that my game Number Play Free is listed with them.
look likes they have partnership with google store
I got this too. They seem to give credit and redirect to the Play store. Anything that get's me more downloads and publicity is OK by me at the moment.

I don't think this site has any association with Google, Apple, Microsoft or any software provider. They're a scraper. They have some automated process go out and watch for new apps on iTunes, Play, and even Microsoft's mobile stuff. Then they duplicate the entries on their site to generate ad traffic plus downloads of non-market apps. My problem with this is that they also have apps that aren't in those official markets. So, your perfectly legitimate app is sitting right next to something that couldn't get approval on Google Play. Who knows if it has malware or viral code in it. If the proverbial crap hits the fan and a malware app is downloaded from this site and your app is also "published" there, the fallout could hit you as well. I've sent an email asking them how they got approval to display my app and that they no longer list it.
Here's the response I got from FileDir on them putting my app on their site.
"Hi,
Not your app was added, but information about your app.
We do not store/host/sale any apps on our website.

I have a logo creating app that doesn't work on Mate 9 Pro. It's called Brandee.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xlabz.Brandee
The app seems to work fine when creating a new logo. But only the text I add in the app is visible and gets exported. No graphics. I've contacted the developer and got this email in return after many mails back and forth:
"
I'm coming back to you with a bad news. After a lot of internal testing we found out that your specific device Huwaii with Android 7.0 alone has this issue and our engineers are not able to find the reason why. Most if not all of the other Android devices seems to not have this problem - we had this tested on at least 6 different devices.
I'm sorry but I don't think this is fixable. If you have bought a IAP in the app let me know and we can refund it."
They have some sort of security thing in the app that prevents the user from taking screenshots in the app. Shouldn't this be an easy fix for them? This is the only app I've had problems with, and I've tried hundreds of apps on this phone. Any thoughts?
I downloaded and did a quick test of the app on the 8 beta and it worked fine, not paid version.
You could try the beta or wait for the official 8 update that will come in the future.
