Playstore Issues - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys I'm hoping someone can explain the following.....
I was looking for a simple RSS reader, I'm sat next to my mate, he's got a gnex too and suggests greader by Google inc, I can see it on his phone and in his market.
I've searched my play store and have a greader app but it's by noinnion even though the asp looks similar to the ogival Google product
Either way I cannot see the original Google version of the reader and he can? Why is this?
Were both in the same geographical area, same os version build, bought them from the same place and have the same regional settings etc but I get totally dif search results
Wtf?!

I've read Google were going to remove it; it seems they have now as it's not on mine either.

News apps

Since I haven't been able to get CNN to work what news app do you guys recommend? I know Google currents is cool and I use it but I am also looking for something with a great widget since I have the space for it now.

The current version of Flipboard works fine on the Nexus 7.

Have you guys looked at the new Google Currents? I played around with it last night, and I have to say was very impressed. I think I will be using this instead of Pulse now. Though Pulse is another awesome consolidated news feed app.
I have both pulse and flipboard. I like flipboard because it helps me find new things and I like pulse because it has the sources I want to see.
Threads about apps go in the Themes & Apps section
Personally I much prefer Pulse to Flipboard on my Galaxy Tab.

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.

How to get my imstagram app up in the rankings

Hi everyone. I have just published an app to the playstore. What it does is that you sign In with you instagram account pick a photo then I put it on a T-shirt and deliver it to the customer.
Problem is that when you type in instagram in the search my app is quite far down the list so therefore quite hard to see.
I've tried different keywords changing the title, description and even category but none of them seem to be moving it further up.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

Maybe try uploading to this website in the appropriate section of course. I'd put it on at least a few more websites like App brain. You could also put a video on YouTube on how to use the app even if it's very simple. Things like his could get your app to used by more people. This is just an idea as I've never developed an application but it's worth a try I guess. Good luck!

Magic 2014 duels of the plainswalker

when i tried to download this app it said that it wasnt compatible with my device. however, i saw my buddy who has a nexus 10.1 tablet (dont know what its called)
how do i get this app on my phone. this app was the only reason i wanted an iphone 5.
i want to get the full version of the app. i dont mind paying for it but i need a way to access the apk
i've found some sites that are hosting the apk and data but i'd rather ask here to see if anyone has got it working on their device
i currently have the modded google play store, i dont know if that has something to do with my issue
I might be wrong when I say this, but assuming you're rooted you should be able to edit the build prop of your phone the "trick" the Play Store to think you have another phone. I'd advise waiting for someone who knows what they're talking about before trying what I'm saying.

Maybe the Nexus 7 isn't compatible either? See if you can change it to say the Nexus 10 (I'm pretty sure that'd be the name of the device your buddy has).

This was frustrating for me also on my G Pro but I could download it on my old Note.
This is the free apk I took from my Note. Once you launch it for the first time it will download the data which is over a gig.
Works great for me..I'll probably buy the full game.

Comedy Central App?

For some reason I cannot find the comedy central app in the Google play store. I know I've seen it there before, I want it so I can watch the daily show and Colbert report clips. Does anyone have the apk or know why it's not showing up for me? Thanks!
Sent from my SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
The only things showing up for me via the Play website are the apps for The Daily Show, Tosh.0, and The Colbert Report. According to Comedy Central's site, they launched their app at the beginning of the month, but it's currently available only for iOS 7. Sorry
Thanks, at least it's not just me. The weird thing is I could have sworn they had it before, maybe I imagined it. Thanks again!

If you want a comedy app you can try this one I found on the Play Store: Stand Up Comedy
There was an app for android. I flashed a rom that caused hulu ads to break hulu. Had downloaded and watched full ep of colbert with no issues. Learned about it from the show.
Not sure if i had flashed again and never downloaded it again which i doubt cause I've never had issues with hulu where I normally watch the show. it seems it was pulled giving merit to what johnus said.
but why?
guess i should say I found this post from google, I have a tmo note 3.
