[Q] App required screen size, work around for Note? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

There are some apps in the Play Store that I would like to use on my Note. Unfortunately they have restrictions like screen res. and physical screen size. One such app requires a screen size of at least 8.9", but the resolution requirement is the same as our Note.
Is there anyway to "fake" it so I can get the app?

I'm not sure, this is why I asked the question. I'm not sure if:
1. It is possible
2. How could it be done

Unfortunately, 1 doesn't mean anything to me. I'm newish to Android. I had a tablet briefly (had to return it) and in that time purchased the app I'm talking about, but because I don't have that app, I don't really have a way to get the app on the Note.
When I had the tablet, I was able to side load it onto another device. But as I said, I don't have the tablet, so I'm looking for an alternative method. I've been considering Rooting and flashing ICS anyways. But if this app doesn't work, I might not bother. Or rather, if I have no way to "get" the app.
Thanks though. I do appreciate the response because it continues the searching and thinking process for me.

What is this mystery app? I am running tablet mode on my note (213 dpi on CM9) and would be more than happy to see if it comes up as available for install. Have you also tried going to the market through a web browser and seeing what it says?

Haha. No real mystery I guess, but I wasn't sure what would get discussed here or if it might be against policy. The app is Adobe Ideas which was updated to 1.5.1 and works with the upcoming gNote 10.1. So, I was curious if it shows up with a rooted and ICS'd gNote 5.3 with the proper "dpi" as you put it. After that, it's a matter of figuring out with the pressure sensitivity works with the app.
When I visit the store through the web browser it says it's only compatible with the tablet I returned. I haven't rooted and ICS'd my Note yet. If this app works though, it would push me over the edge to do it.

It won't come up in the market thru app on my note. Through browser says compatible with some of my devices. Without hitting the purchase button I am going to wager a guess that it is compatible with my Transformer but not my Note.

Well, that's a bummer that it doesn't show up. But that doesn't mean it doesn't work.
So changing dpi is generally what you would do to make tablet apps show up? So back to the original question. Is there a way to get around this app not showing up in the store?

Settlers HD - strategy at its best

Started it today and its really amazing for the NOOK since it requires a big screen to be playable in my opinion.
Great graphics and really interesting.
I can't find it in the market, where can I get it?
ETA: Ah, its from Gameloft.
How did you get yours to work? Mine says has to download data and then after it downloads it still small screen like for a phone. How big was your data?

Go into the app "spare parts" and un-check compatibility mode.
May need a reboot, then you should be in full screen.
I don't have this game, but most frequently this is the issue when an app plays on a small portion of the screen.

Extra data was around 200mb and the screen is full.
Probably the problem is what Blue6IX says.

Given you have to disable compatibility mode to get full screen...doesn't that implicitly imply that this is _not_ "HD"?

HD means whatever you want it to mean... The original android phone (G1) was 320x480 so modern phones (800x480) are very "HD" in comparison. The NC just happens to be even higher definition (1024x600).

I would think the better question is, when compatibility is turned off and it works in full screen, does it look like it's scaled to fit? Or does it actually look proper high resolution?
When I say "scaled to fit" I mean like how PvZ/Peggle from Amazon are obvious scaled to fit and not full high resolution.
stock 1.2?
Any thoughts on how to make it work on nootered BN stock 1.2/froyo?
Video playing problem on other Gameloft games.
Thanks!

The games that I've had to disable compatibility mode for to get full screen haven't appeared to be scaled. They look like native 1024x600. Wave Blazer comes to mind.
I can't seem to get this to work on my CM7 NC. I purchased it with the $1 india method, and bought it for the droid X, but after it downloads the data, plays the gameloft intro video, shows the disclaimer, it crashes to launcher with no message.
Any ideas? how did you all buy the game? which device did you buy it for?

Hulu finally! Rooted or Not

I came across this app at the market that was just put up today called DroidLu.
This app will allow you to watch Hulu on our SGT 10.1 without needing any flash hack! It costs 99 cents I would have paid more for this since it made it possible for me to watch Hulu! Now 3.2 has come to our tablet previous hacks don't work.
I can confirm it works!
Currently on Tsk650 V5 GT-P7510
Note that Hulu only works when you run it through Droidlu app. And make sure that you have latest flash player 11
Schuweeeeet ill try it out later tonight

It's barely an app. It's very difficult to scroll on the progress bar, very difficult to adjust the volume. The worst part is that the return button doesn't take you to the previous page. So you have to start all over again when you click on the wrong button. If you hit the lock button, you also have to start all over again after unlocking. So, if you want to want the show from beginning to end without interruption, without any misclicks, without jumping forward or adjusting volume, this is the app you want.

Any one else?
You can get hulu to work using the old method. You just have to remove flash, copy the old .so to /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer, reinstall flash from the market, then use a hex editor to change the plugin variable AND to WIN. I am running galaxy task 5.3 and I just watched Castle without any problems.

Would you mind creating a new thread with a sticky how to?
My experience today:
Search the market for "DroidLu" and it will bring up an app called Flash Video Browser by Dan Lockard for just under a buck. I just found out about it on droidforum, installed it on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and it works! I'm watching Modern Family right now!

Yep, just installed and it works perfectly. I'll give his FlashBrowser a try in a sec, because this is definitely worth $0.99!
EDIT: Spoke too soon. FlashBrowser shows as not compatible with my Verizon 4G LTE tab. I'll stick with the old DroidLu APK (linked above, working) and see if there's another way to donate to him.

Amazon Video APK

The Amazon Instant Video APK has been pulled from the Kindle Fire and can be installed on the Galaxy Tab 10.1.
A couple of caveats:
(1) To use the Prime Instant video features, you must first purchase something to login. There is no separate login otherwise.
(2) It appears to only work over wifi
(3) If your device is rooted, it will not work.

Never heard of temp unroot, thanks, but yeah, as of late, amazon released a fire update, ruining everyones root on the fire and deleting the market. Probably part of that updated.
Pr0tip: This works on Gingerbread but not on HoneyComb.

What do you mean it runs great? I get to the point of seeing the button to play the video, but it is grayed out. I can play Amazon videos fine on my Exhibit II by temporarily unrooting the stock OS. It seems Cyanogenmod is somehow detected, because it doesn't work on my Nook Color with the Cyanogenmod either.

I have the apk that allows me to play the videos for free that come with the amazon prime account (I signed up for a free month), but I don't see how to 'borrow' a book for free - this also comes with the prime account on kindle devices. Anyone have any information on how to do this on a Galaxy Tab?
Only Kindle devices can borrow books for free with the Prime membership. (you borrow directly from the device)
Two things. One KFHD looks for the device to be logged into amazon, I bet this requires framework not on our devices. Two, probably crashes when trying to view due to same.
Bottom line? Besides logcats to figure things out, I'm pretty sure a system dump will be needed to get the correct files to go with this......

How to you prevent google play upgrade?

I have the apk for the 3.4.4 market. I froze the market updater but when I install the Market apk within 5 minutes it updates to play. Is there a way to prevent the upgrade?
What's the big deal with preventing the update? Looks like exactly the same market with a name change to me. Just wondering what I'm missing and in no way trying to be a jerk.

You dont want to stop the update because if you do, you will not be able to get apps or update current apps with the old market.
Anything else that relies on the newer market will fail as well. I doubt you could stop it anyway..
Install an older version of the Market and use Titanium Backup to freeze the Market Updater...but there's no good reason to not update.
The new market is great! LOL, it is pretty much the same. The only difference if you have a tablet and that allowed you to purches music through the app. Again looks pretty much the same. New name

personally the name change is annoying as all hell, google quit trying to program your brand name in my brain, when i want to buy and app or something i want to go to the market or to the store, not go to the google and pick up a new app.
every-time i'm in a rush trying to pull something from the app market i can't find the bloody icon because i'm looking for the market or in the old location on my app drawer, minor change i know but i have caught myself cussing at google when i needed to re-d/l my gps app after it crashed during a trip i as on a few days ago.
any chance of renaming the new app back to market without root?
Just use a launcher and if already do, just change the name duh..lol that's what I did ....

The only way to get around using Google Play is to not use android. What you're asking is the equivalent of saying you want to use an iDevice without the app store.

Memory needs > any update
I have a very good reason for not wanting auto-upgrades. Radio Shack misled me about the HTC Wildfire S and now I've got jack for memory. I have four apps installed, use only the native message app, and I'm lucky to have 25mb free. Anything less than that and the phone works as well as the Pony Express does today.
FWIW, Tandybot told me I could always install apps on the SD card. In theory, yes, but so few app devs code apps to work in that manner. Lesson learned.
kite edit: SNIP! No need for that kind of attitude around here, I'm afraid.

Which App did you install? I went to Samsungapps.com and downloaded the apk from there. In settings I have option for Push Notifications and Samsung Account. That's it.
It's basically a Samsung app store which is lame but it has Samsung apps under "More Services" category which is nice. Nothing too amazing in there except Photo Editor and Video Editor (both of which are in the Play Store already).
I downloaded it from the Samsung site as well. I was rooted when I installed it, so I used OTA Rootkeeper to undo root and reinstall seeing if that would make a difference, but it didn't help. I'm after the Polaris Office app, which I can't seem to find in the Android Market at all. Haven't tried the Amazon market yet though. Just getting to me now that it won't work for whatever reason. Already not happy they blocked the Remote Control feature here in the US, not this?!?!

Wow - sorry you're having trouble but thanks for the tip. This is an awesome app. It has Dropbox integration that works well and it's so far opened a bunch of PPT/Docs that many apps have trouble with.

Says you can edit Excel files, which would be great to finally do on my phone. I'm sure there's others that I'll want, but don't want to get even more mad that I can't get apps that I want. This one is bad enough. I found a thread on a different forum where people were able to load it off the site by going to it on the phone, but when I click the download, all that get's downloaded is a file called downloadfile.bin that doesn't do ANYTHING.

I actually just found Samsung Apps in the google store, but when I try to download it, it says "This item is not available for your carrier". GRRR!!! Messed up thing too, is my Galaxy tablet is greyed out too, and it's the WiFi version, there is no carrier on that!!!
