KitKat for Australia? - Samsung Galaxy Mega

Anyone know when they are planning to roll KitKat out here in Australia? Feel like I'm missing or on the fun.

Hi Kangburra,
Are you still on the Portugese rom or one of the more recent I9205XXUDNF2 release for Spain, etc
Have given up on getting an Australian OTA release and need to move up so my Mega will work with a Google smart watch.
Does everything work? 3G, GPS etc? Some contradictory posts about the Portugese rom out there.

No need, just took the plunge. Installed the Spanish version off SamMoblie, just followed the instructions on the page, too easy after realising I needed to enable usb debugging.
Worked like an OTA update, kept all my apps, settings, Apex layout etc. Still can't believe it was that easy.
Now to see if my Lg G Watch works with it

Hi Kangburra,
Are you having problems with making and receiving calls? After a day or two I stop being able to make or receive calls and have to reboot to get it working. You getting anything like this with the Portuguese release?

TBH I don't make calls but my wife sometimes uses my phone and it has not caused any problems. She would soon let me know if it didn't work I'm sure! lol

Marketplace have been updated! Now supports storage card installation + more!

I just got an update to marketplace and in settings it's now possible to change prefered installation path to storage card
Also there's a list to choose different marketplace locations I just tried out the US market and it was nice since it has many more apps
Great update, thanks for the tip. I had to uninstall it before I got the updated version. Thanks again!!

well, ok, now the update check during startup makes really sense! Will try and re-install as well!
really, mine checked for the latest software, all fine no options?
Mine SAID it checked for a new version, but didn't update anything. Uninstaled and reinstalled, and now I have the new version.
Not sure the region selection is working right though... Unless the UK really DOES have 92 items in the games category and the US only 4... (WQVGA device)

I had 7 games in US (english)... also in the show case panel I've only seen one icon. I better switched back to Germany. 37 games. Strange!
It's also really terrific to select the country from the list. I almost had to grab out my stylus. Horrible! I thought they had skinned it already!?
I switched to US English.
But it is not working properly. Many apps are missing.
For instance I cannot find Kinoma in the US list.

Sirius XM 2.0 App Apk

Would someone mind posting their US Sirius 2.0 app that was just released?
Us Canadians cant' download it, even when we use market enabler and change our provider.
Could someone post their apk from their /system dir?
Thanks in advance.
here you go... i pulled it from my phone, hope fully it works for u
http://www.MegaShare.com/4164721
Thank you so much!
.... those permissions are way off from previous versions... contact data? Sensitive log data?
What phone was this pulled from?
SiriusXM App 2.0 Crashing Droid Incredible MIUI 2.3.2
I downloaded the new app right away, hoping it would be better than the old piece of junk I've been running. Of course, every time I click on a channel I get an FC. It's unusable. I've had to roll back to 1.6.2. Anyone having similiar probs? Anyone have it working?
I'm also running Incredikernel, and I have apps / davik running on sd-ext. I suppose that might be causing the problem, but all other apps are working great.
(Tried installing Flash. No change.)
And there is already a new update: version 2.0.0.62 Could someone post the new version? Thanks.
Nobody?
Here's the new version
Hmmm. As a newer member I'm not allowed to post links.
So... it's at megashare /4179513.
Interesting. I flashing an older ROM and the App worked fine. Backed up the app and data, and then flashed MIUI. Restored data and app, but it still crashes.
Long story short, I have found a way to get it to work. You just can't tap directly on a station. But, if you select a PROGRAM, it works. I discovered this because I created an alert for a radio show, and when I started the new app it asked me if I wanted to listen to it immediately. I chose YES and it worked. Further testing revealed that this is easy to duplicate, and the solution does actually work. You just can't tap directly on a station. You have to select the program.
The app is still a memory hog and I'm still losing connection frequently... but maybe not as much as before. I hope this helps someone!
Thanks!
I don't have the problems all you guys have running ics 4.04 , it is however buggy when I don't exit it and receive or make a phone call.
Anybody have the ver 2.0.0.70 APK just put out today (June 2)? It has a lot of improvements that I have been waiting for. I am in Canada but my Sirius sub is a USA account so I can not get it through the market.

Google Hangout Notifications not working since 5.0 OTA

Recently upgraded via OTA
Since then I no longer receive notifications from messages, video chat invites, etc. The only way I can see if I have new messages is to open a conversation. No notification light, sounds, or popups.
I have factory reset twice and have made sure hangouts is in the priority app list.
Anyone have any ideas?

That is the known issue called the "wireless sync bug", which happens with the latest OTA update 23C. I've had that happen with Hangouts/Inbox/Gmail, so I flashed the phone back to 10B then took OTA's up to 12B, to stay on Android 4.4.2.
Ugh, what a nightmare. I knew I shouldn't have updated haha...
I really did not want to get into the rooting/flashing stuff ... looks like I have no choice.

Just use the LG FlashTool to return to the 10B update, then take two OTA's to get you up to 12B. No need to root or anything to do that. You'll wipe your entire phone though, so if you do go this route, make sure you save any photos/music/files you want to keep.
No real point to upgrading from 10b though, is there. The only real changes were the addition of the buggy Advanced Calling VoLTE capability that drops calls often, right ?
I have had a LOT of experience with Verizonz updates, and I really believe their secret true intent is to encourage their customers to sign up for a new two year contract with Verizon in order to get a discount on a new phone.

Getting new (facebook) messenger update

How can i get new update with new design ?
I install Messenger 192.0.0.25.101, but i don't have new design..
Some devices have it, other don't have it.
Some of my friends received this update, but after a few hours the update disappeared. But not everyone.
What to do ?
Changing build.prop to fake my device model will help me or something other can i do ?
I had received the new update also it happened accidently by facebook servers... As they were testing the app the new update should officially drop after Christmas

Thank you, very much!
I have one question. If someone was backup(apk file or data, or both)the new update, would that mean we could use it now? (with updates turned off)

as far as I know this is actually server-side so you have to wait until you are "unlocked" by the server

In the newer Messenger versions, the "Save Photos" option was removed.
Even when installing an older messenger version where had it this option, it is missing.
But with a modified APK, this option has not yet been removed to me.
Maybe it's not fully server-side or ?!

If you uninstall a messenger and then install it again, have you got the new design again?
Whether or not you get the re-design is entirely server-side on Facebooks end. They have stated you won't need to update the app at all, it'll just be enabled for your account in the background and then you will have it.
There's no way to get the re-design through an updated app as of yet. They do roll back some people who get it when they shouldn't.
You just have to wait. It's rolling out in waves.

MIUI 13

If anyone wants to try MIUI 13, just go to this link https://xiaomiui.net/miui-13-for-xiaomi-mi-9-9191/ and follow the steps.
Using it for a couple of days and it's working great. Only bug is no Vibration. But everything else is working fine. And the finger print reader is much faster.
Got some Japanese in the UI, but it's fine really.
Dev fixed the vibration bug, but maybe material you colors for google apps don't work. Here's the Port: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gwRJ5eIuEcpeDdsm_RfcAuMi5qZphyXE/view

it's ok, not better than miui stock (12.5.6/12.5.1)
dirty flash (i think) it's not possible. reason? u have to reinstall the firmware (incluided in the rom) and the kernel is different i think
Amazing thing to do, works very well... I just cannot use a rom without my native language and google play services. It's a very cool novelty thing maybe xiaomi.eu guys might pick it up but as of right now it's unusable for me.

Actually you can sync all the contact just download Google Contacts Sync apk from Apkmirror and reboot, for me that did the trick.
