Hello,
I like Google Play Edition custom rom, Google Now Launcher and Google Caller, i have successfully rooted my HTC m7 and installed GPE Edition, everything is fine, but for my new phone - m9+ there is no custom rom like GPE. So i have installed google now launcher in it and try to install google caller, but Google Play Store shows me - application is incompatible with your phone. I get this error because my phone is not rooted, right?
What is the easiest way to make my M9+ looks like GPE edition?
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
beta is pretty long time out, but I'm still waiting, when it will be avaible for Defy+ (in play store not compatible) .
Is there a way how to make it working?
Running on rooted stock 2.3.4 ROM.
As far as I know Chrome works only on ICS, hence that's the main reason it's sown as incompatible in G Play Store.
Hey all, I've come here to ask these basic questions...since this is the place where gurus come.
I'm currently in possession of an a500 running stock 3.2 however I can not update it or even use the google play store to download apps as the a500 is no long supported. Are there any work arounds to get the play store to work on a stock rom (and how could I update it to ICS)? I think it's pretty ****ed up that by dropping support for it you can no longer download a thing from it.
I say this because the owner of this tablet is not at all good with technology and would greatly appreciate the vanilla experience of android compared to a custom rom.
And I'm not all that familiar with how the play store operates on custom roms so my next questions are:
1. If a custom rom was to be used which is the most stable?
2. If using a custom rom will the play store become usable again?
Thank you all!

Play store, as far as I know should work fine on a stock install. It has worked for me in every single ROM I have ever used, including stock roms.
Since you got it used - the prior owner may have screwed something up. Done a factory reset yet?
Google play store has always worked on all my ROM's, sounds like something else is wrong.
Probably best to make a nandroid backup and change or reinstall a Custom ROM after the correct WIPE method of that ROM.
Google play store will automatically update to newest version 3.10.10 or you could download a newer version, but i'm sure that will not fix ur problem...
Best to restart with a ROM u know is new to your tablet...This will be easier to troubleshoot in future
and before your install ROM, wipe everything (except External SDCARD)
at this point all will be fresh and only problems will be with ROM (unless you have hardware isues), but you won't know until you change ROM
I recomend TWRP Recovery 2.3.3.1, not CWM

The play store works fine, you have something borked on your tablet.
Sounds like you prefer to return to Acer stock Rom. If so, go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1816560 and dowload the 3.01 EUU for the A500, (not for the A501), flash it in APX mode, go to Play store, update (like, at least 4 times) and you will be on stock Acer ICS 4.03.
Your welcome (for clicking thanks!)
Hi all,
I noticed that the Google Edition Roms are starting to trickle in (Pulled from the Google Editions of our phone). Will we be able to flash it on our AT&T devices?
This will definitely make me flash instead of sticking with TW now. The Verge is reporting that they got a 3rd party remote app to work with their Google Edition S4!

Yes you should, just be sure to flash the att kernel and superuser zip before exiting recovery. Also, double check, but I've read you need the touchwiz version of our kernel not the aosp version which seems odd to me. From the reports I've read though, the google edition rom is very much a work iin progress. It's probably better to just wait a few days for the major s4 rom developers to incorporate the goodies into their roms.
I used the ROM that's going around for the i377m does not flash the Modem so those are both stock and the ROM runs perfectly from what i can tell so far (only been a few hours, still need to test LTE properly).
I think that the touchwize framework is still integrated deep in the ROM, it's just all the top level stuff has been removed. I've even heard reports of the touchwize camera, dialer and such working on the google edition.
Edit:
The ROM does flash the kernel, I'm using the [email protected] kernel and the phone is functioning properly.
I had a rooted stock 4.2.2 android on my Sprint galaxy s4 SPH-L720, just a couple days ago I installed customized GOOGLE EDITION 4.4.4 by Danvdh, Kryten2k35 & Ktoonsez found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2557353
The rom seems to be working well, very smooth and decent on battery, however there are a lot of the stock apps/features I miss. Some things like the quick menu, weather widget and voicemail app were just extremely useful, but I mainly miss the dialer. The one that came with the ROM will not let me accept calls without a bluetooth headset, all calls will go to VM which is a pain to get to with googlevoice.
I made backups with titanium backup, however that app will not run on the new rom. It says it needs the USB Debugging activated but I cannot find the option in the settings anywhere.

It won't work all Samsung apps require the TW framework witch is not part of the AOSP rom's.
P.S. to get USB Debugging you will have to go to about phone and press the build number a few times,
until it say's developer options enabled,
then press back and go into developer options there you will find USB Debugging.
Hi there everyone!
I've downloaded a lot of .apk files claiming to install the Google dialer on a non-rooted S4 but so far all have failed to install. Is it possible to get this dialer on a non-rooted S4 and if so, which one should I be downloading?
Thanks for your time!
The dialer only works on Pixel, Nexus, Android One, and Google Play Edition devices running Android 6 or higher. You're running Android 5.0.1, thus the dialer will always refuse to install.
Root, then install an AOSP ROM and GApps package to use the dialer.

Thank you very much for your help!
I was told on another forum that I could not root or replace the ROM on this phone, as Verizon prevented it with the last OTA update. Is this not true?
@schwim: The fact you have a Verizon device and have taken an OTA means you can't change ROMs to a newer version. Such information would have been more helpful if placed in your initial post, but no matter. The upshot here is that there is nothing you can do that will allow you to install the Google dialer.
