6p google live case - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Need some help, I'm trying to create a google live case for my 6p, however, no wallpapers or downloads work. I continue to get copyright errors! I've tried everything I know to try, how can I use a wallpaper that I've downloaded from chrome browzer, zedge, wallmax, ECT.... Thanks for the help!

Dont have that one
Is there any chance this happens because i'm not from the US? im from latin america
if so any way i could get it?
I doubt this will work in Latin America. I saw a pulled apk of this somewhere in the forums.
You could sideload it probably without issue but hen Google would see your IP and likely tell you it isn't supported.
Its no big deal anyway.
Sound hound , shazam, etc... same type.

They've changed name. I remember downloading GoogleEars.apk few months back on here. When I googled it, I got sound search instead. It can't recognize humming or things that you sing to it. Still using SoundHound.
It's there but you need to use Titanium Backup to defrost it - and again after every reboot.
seems that i'll need to buy shazam, thanks anyways

I found Google Ears / Sound Search to be way quicker than Shazam.

Want to buy Nexus 7 but have some questions

Hi,
I'm quite eager to get the nexus 7. I do have a few questions though. Firstly, I'm planning to use it to word processing and some reports on the way home. The issue I have is that the nexus 7 doesn't have Polaris Office which is what I really want to use. Is there any way to get it and how do the alternativies stack up? Its essentials that I'm able to make and edit word 2007 documents. Secondly, is the screen big enough to do so? It seemed ok to me but just want people's opinions. Thirdly, I've heard its very rooter friendly but lets say I root.. Is it possible to get Polaris Office.. Also, any idea about when the free google play credit offer is till? This is something I really want. Lastly, I've heard there are going to be some keyboard cases for the nexus 7 but is there one already?
Thanks
Sean
Personally I wouldn't dream of using this thing for work. If you want a tab for working too you can't beat the Asus Transformer range in my opinion. This thing is clearly aimed at media consumption and does not lend itself to productivity.
But! That's just my opinion. Yours might differ. My advice is try one out for a couple of hours first. You might hate it, or love it.
You can buy Polaris office can't you? You also could use Google drive

You can't get it on the play store.. Also google drive is for storing stuff.. I need to use my tablet to edit stuff.. I have an S3 which has Polaris office but can't find it anywhere for the gaalxy nexus.. I seriously want it since its a bloody good software and the best out there..
Just look online for the APK or use your Google play store credit when you buy the tablet.

Google docs is built into drive now actually, so yeah you can create stuff and store stuff, as well as edit word documents from your pc
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2
I haven't tried any office suites to edit things on the run, but I do use it regularly through the Citrix Receiver connection to our work servers, and that works well, so, unless you need larger DPIs or anything like that, it will be fine for business stuff.
Unfortunately, it seems that Polaris Office is licensed as OEM only on certain devices. So we cant provide any links to apks or anything, as it would be classed as warez.
Check out this thread h t t p://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1085173 (Sorry, still cant post links), it compares the different Android office apps.

Its not on google play... As for APK's, which is a reliable website?
Thanks

With a BT keyboard the Nexus 7 would work fine for editing documents. I'd suggest checking out Google Drive before purchasing a suite of office software, though. Give it a go on your PC and phone, see how it works for you and make a decision from there.

What's that suppose to mean? Why don't you use google play store? There's lots of free apps on there. The play store is the best feature of android. Also asking for pirated sites are against forum rules.

Just pull the apk from your S3 and move it to other devices. Profit.
I'm pretty sure I have polaris office backed up in titanium backup from my flyer, as I backed up everything, copied it to my PC, then wiped so I could send it off to the eBay buyer. Dunno how well it would work though as the flyer was honeycomb

How exactly would I do that? Sorry but I've only had android for 2 weeks lol.
Thanks

Well you'll need root access on your s3 to do it. Obtaining root is different on every device so you'll have to check the s3 forums for info on how to do that and then you'll need a file explorer such as root explorer to access the files. You'll need to navigate to system/apps and the apk file will be in there. Talk the mount button on top of the screen to mount the folder and read / write, then copy it, paste it in your sd folder, and then plug the s3 in the PC, pull the file off, and then copy it on to your sd card on your nexus 7. Disconnect, make sure "install from unknown sources" is checked in settings, and navigate to the file using a file explorer, tap on it and it should install it like any other app

Photo Sphere restore?!

Hey folks,
I shot a great sphere pic last monday in madison square garden, though i accidentally swiped away the pic and its deleted now.( damn gallery landscape mode)
Now to the good part. I still got the "panorama session" folder that includes the orientation.meta file and a session.txt file as well as the necessary pictures.
Does anyone know how to force the camera to "manually render" again and recreate the sphere picture??
Thank you endless and more for any help!!
Have a good day!!
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Perhaps you could print out all the pictures in full resolution and place them in a sphere around you, and recreate the scene?
All joking aside, this would be nice to know.

AT&T Scanner

It's crazy, I have an Impulse 4G (Huawei U-8800) from AT&T and Play won't let me get the free AT&T barcode scanner that works really well for me. It's a free app and I managed to find an old version that works well but I would like to upgrade since mine is two versions old.
I guess there's no way to fool Play into thinking I have something else is there? I've searched all over the place and every link points back to Google.

Thanks, that was actually the first thing I tried. It goes through the motions but after it finishes and I log back into Google, it still shows me having the Huawei. I tried it using all three of the devices offered and no change. I did send a feedback email from the app. It was worth a shot though.

That didn't work either, but I used APK Leech to get it and sideloaded. I put in the device # for my Samsung Tab which the app really won't work on that well, but is compatible....go figure.

Google EARS

I used to have this version on my nexus 4, but when i changed my google account and moved to nexus 5, its not working anymore.
it fails to be installed.
tried this also, but same issue.
any help with a working version?
i really like ears, better than shazam, and it helps that can be put as widget in lock screen.
Have you tried getting from the play store directly? Here's a link for you.

doooh
due to my location in EUROPE, the playstore app is not available.
On my phone search it does not appear, and when i go to it on PC, it says "NO ELIGIBLE DEVICES FOR APP INSTALL".
thats why i had to try with the apk from xda. but now...that one does not work either.
i click the apk to install..it starts..and then..app not installed. thats all.
I'm in Italy and on my N5 was installed by default...
Here it is my apk: https://www.dropbox.com/s/3p60sht7mbiq5fa/GoogleEars.zip
If you are rooted just extract and put the apk directly on system folder, then set the correct permission. rw-r--r--

I'm in Canada and noticed it was already in System/apps, after clicking it gave me the option to install it and it worked. The widget now appears in the widgets area. I'm not able to purchase any music through it even though I can use Google Music, but the song search feature seems to work great, saves me from Googling lyrics every time I want to know the name of a song.

Yeah same as what they do, just a bit better IMO and no need for another app. If you want to be able to purchase the music I believe you need to live in the U.S.A
