Blackberry native apps on play store - BlackBerry Priv

Thanks to Crackberry (http://crackberry.com/blackberry-priv-stock-apps-go-google-play-ahead-launch) I saw the stock apps for the Priv are on the Play Store. Here are the individual links as well:
Launcher: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.blackberry.blackberrylauncher
Keyboard: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.blackberry.keyboard
Camera: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.blackberry.camera
DTEK: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.blackberry.privacydashboard
Password Keeper: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.blackberry.passwordkeeper
If anyone can download the apk's, I want to know how.

Yep no go on Chrome apk downloader or the web based downloaders. It might be able to be download from BB10 with the snap application once the apps are official shown in the playstore. Hopefully someone finds a way soon!

In for the waiting... Miss the keyboard so much having just come over from a Blackberry Z30.

Is there anyone planing to port these app to other android phone?

Anyone try to change ro.model to "Priv"?
---------- Post added at 11:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:41 PM ----------
Have tried ro.product.model=STV100-1 to 6, to no avail (of course I set ro.manufacture to blackberry). There must be something else, I mean the model is correct, based on all those leaked images. I accidentally know the guy in Vietnam that had that Venice prototype, will try ask him tomorrow to see if he could extract the apk (which will be difficult, as root is required)

If somebody knows a person that currently has a PRIV, you should be able to use their GsfID/model to pull down the APKs. Unless there is more security involved here, this worked in the past on my Android and BlackBerry 10 devices.

There are many more factors to get it fully working. Until the subscription to BlackBerry experience suite goes live, I doubt it will work

The stv100-6 i posted earlier is the real product model from the leaked device in vietnam. I have asked owner of it to try extracting apk but always getting error... guess blackberry is truly tough on security

Interesting, I'm still holding out hope though. I REALLY want these apps on my OP2. I just switched from a BB Passport.

Any one else concern about this app and its permissions. It want access to pretty much every thing... Any one have any more information on this? Reading amazon review, there were others who have same concern...
I still got it, so once i have all the information on this app, and i am convince this app not going to do any thing questionable to my device without my knowledge, i will probably install it then.
The way to check the amazon apps. Turn off your wireless launch the app.if it starts looking for internet to run. RUN FROM THIS APP..
Good luck.of course this does not apply to all apps as ssome are for net stuff.
Hope this helps.I check amazon free apps as everyday I get them most all but do not install many. There are over 200 apps in my amazon online thing verybfew installed.

Yup, mostly i do the same. Got alot of app from amazon but havent installed them all. As for the turning off wireless, i do that alot with some apps that i dont trust completely. Also i found out while back, some app actually stored data, that goes to where ever when and if you send some crash report but not restricted to just that. I am sure its for some legit reason, but i makes me question abit more.
I know this app has ability to access Remote file so it need net access, but asking permission to access my messages and stuff. I guess its just the devil in my mind with a pitch fork, stabbing my brain and telling it to question it...
Is it just me or does it seem that amazon store FORCES you to add a credit card to use their service?

STOP SHOPPING FOR SHOES!
Yeah, I DLed it on my wife's Vizio tablet, since she is a prime member anyway(she also likes looking for the cute shoes), and she doesn't seem to be as concerned about the excessive permissions as I am. Personally, I'm a bit sketched out by the whole "reinstall amazon app to make it work" thing, kinda pisses me off. I use Documents to Go at any rate and it works fine for me.

[Q] Action Memo - Tasks more than one line

Has anyone figured out a way to make it so when you write an action memo that is more than one line it only creates one task? It's pretty hard to write small on the N3 and it doesn't make any sense to have 2 tasks pop up for something like "Call Town About Property Taxes" because I can't write small enough.
"Call about taxes" there I fixed it.
I just tried a few times and see what you mean.

Kind of annoying right? The action memo is something I see being used more for work than anything else so that really limits the task function for me.

You have to write down the command (a phone number or an email address) then press the third icon from the top left to highlight everything. then a bar of actions will show up and you tap whichever one is relevant to what your command was.
But seriously though, I need more room than just one line. I'm not going to use action memo if there's really no way around this!

This is driving me crazy! Surely the Dev team must've realised that people would need more than one line. It would be such a useful tool if it worked with multiple lines. If anyone figures it out please let me know.

One theory I saw floating around that might have some validity to it is that since Verizon just started to turn on AWS LTE, maybe in addition to the regular bug fixes that other carriers got, Verizon could also have greenlit Motorola to enable the AWS LTE band in the radio?

Yup just check the FCC listing, pretty much all phones released in the 2nd half of 2013 support Band 4.

It opens up another set of frequencies for data flow. It doesn't mean you'll get more bars but more bandwidth. This can alleviate congestion issues and/or improve speeds.

Nothing yet. I'm not an dev but I could see that depending on the nature of the exploit used unrooting could be challenging, at least, unrooting in a way that everything is restored to the way it was.

I don't think there is a way for us VZW ppl to unroot without resetting. The only way i could find was to fastboot flash the stock recovery and system, but the VZW system image is a few MB too big to be pushed through fastboot.
Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk 4
Though I use a Maxx... fastboot works just fine... Use the fastboot from the fxz and it automatically enables Multi flash and it kinda breaks the file into smaller ones and flashes accordingly... It should work without affecting ur data, but try it at your own risk..

Possible 13/14.3.2.3.2 root

Notice: Towelroot works!
Added to the toolkit.​
It is possible 13/14.3.2.2 can be rooted. Talk between a few devs confirm this.
id suggest keeping your kindle in offline mode for the next couple of months. perhaps until the xda developers conference? the exploits were shown to amazon's team, so they will patch it before it is released. hence the keep it offline

he has it working and will have it. he likes telling companies their bugs so they can patch it and make a more secure device once its patched he releases root. should be about 90 days or so, but once its patched i believe he plans on releasing the root then so there wont be any need to let people know as it will be posted. its just a matter of letting them know to not accept updates (which you can only do by never connecting). so people who sit offline are fine enough, just sucks for anyone who wont. i thought about posting "If anyone was serious about wanting root they would keep their device off the internet until the next root was found".

(I didn't include a name because I don't want to name drop anyone unexpectedly)
As you can tell, if you can bide without a net connection, it's worth the possible wait. Just keep your device disconnected from the net. Give it some time. If you do connect, be vigilant of it updating. Do not leave it connect to the internet unintended or on standby.
Update:
I highly suggest if you are going to wait, don't mess around with filtering connections. Before I was almost sure I blocked all out and inbound connections (with android firewall(a config front for iptables)) from Amazon but people were updated.
wow thanks man
also,if the new root comes out wouldn't it be wise to use rom manager instead of safestrap? That way I think the other ROM would be always turned off and you wouldn't need to have it on airplane mode all the time.
I'm interested weather that would fix the problem?

Haven't seen anybody test it when we had root. It's a sure thing to block ota updates, but until we get root, that's when we'll see. Wait to get root, block the updates then make a backup of the (ota blocked) stock rom and use that for future rom needs.
Wow..excellent news!!!

Just to clarify I'm not releasing it, a (unnamed) person is.
I however, will be testing it once released and possibly add it to my root tool if all goes well.

As for this root, I find it hard to believe that a random person has found a exploit, and is going to utilize it to get everyone root. But I am going to wait patiently, just like I do with everything, and I will continue trying to work on my own in airplane mode.

I'm just spreading the word what was pm to me. I'm not looking for fame. I just want this bad boy cracked, rooted, and everything in between. But if people decide to leave thanks, that's their doing. I'm just trying to help keep talk active.
To further clarify, I received news/quotes that 13/14.3.2.2 may be rootable and that someone found it. But the person seems to be waiting to inform Amazon, then decide to release it. All I'm really saying is if you want to wait for the possible root access, now is the time to wait. If you're blocking ota, just wait around. If your not blocking updates, you should keep your device disconnected and wait.
Please see the word possible and not mistake it for probable. Patience is the best thing for now.
But regardless, please inform others.
iMJets this isn't towards you, I'm just addressing the question
I was the person who notified faz that there might be a root released soon.
I was PMed information from a verified XDA developer who provided me information about a /possible/ root getting released for this update in the near future.
The person who PMd me and the person who provided them with the information want to remain anonymous for their own reasons.
I am not a recognized developer or a person of interest in the development community. Which is why I provided the information I had to Faz.
What you do with this information is up to you.
I personally believe in the spirit of Open Source and think that information like this should be shared, I did not think any of you would believe me if I said anything so I reached out to Faz.

+1 I have never seen anyone here on xda being such on idiot that after finding a root exploit (likely a lot of work), he makes sure that it is patched up in the latest version and realease it later. I think GPL should be modified to disallow usage of locked bootloaders.

Well the thing is next time I think it could be wise to ask the devs to maybe work on different ROMS, for example optimising the paranoid android ROM maybe? The thing is, that way the Amazon ROM would be off all the time, right?

Well the thing is next time I think it could be wise to ask the devs to maybe work on different ROMS, for example optimising the paranoid android ROM maybe? The thing is, that way the Amazon ROM would be off all the time, right?

Yea like...huh?

Fingerprint sensor stops working randomly

So this just started happening very recently. It won't recognize that I'm touching the fingerprint scanner if my phone's screen has been off for X amount of time. No vibration, nothing to indicate that it realizes I'm touching it. Even when I turn on the screen to look at the lockscreen, it still won't detect my finger. After I unlock using my pattern, then lock again, it'll detect my finger when trying to unlock again. But if I let it sit for a bit with the screen off, it'll stop working again - almost as if it forgets to keep the fingerprint sensor on when it enters doze mode.
I thought it might be an issue with MHC19I, but I've had that update for almost a week now, and I hadn't seen this issue happen until today. And I don't see anyone else complaining about it recently.
It could also be due to a recent app upgrade, maybe? The list of apps that upgraded before I first noticed this issue are:
Chrome Beta, letgo, Robinhood (uses fingerprint sensor), TurboTax
Has anyone else experienced this? Any idea on how to troubleshoot this? The Google rep wanted me to boot into safe mode, but I'm hesitant to do that due to this bug - it's happened to me before on this phone - or to do a factory reset, which is ridiculous.
I am experiencing the same thing. Exactly. On march build
Same thing here. Started yesterday as well. I also had Robinhood update yesterday. In looking at the app reviews, it is breaking the nexus imprint for the 6P & 5X. Just deleted the app and rebooted the phone. Will update if this fixes it.
Misery loves company, I guess. Glad I'm not alone. I disabled all my xposed modules and the issue still persists. Maybe it's due to a recent update for an app.
Do either of you guys have any of these apps installed? Let's see if we can narrow it down.
Edit: Yeah, it's probably Robinhood.
Deleting the Robinhood app and rebooting seems to have fixed my issues!!

Thanks for testing! I'm gonna hold my breath for a quick update to the app.

No problem. Glad to know it can be fixed so easily! Cheers.
Having the same issue. I was going to do a full reset. This threads saves my day.
I do have Robinhood installed. Didn't expect an app can cause this to happen.

Add me to the list. Just removed robinhood (before finding this thread) and haven't had the problem since. Thanks OP for the perfect description of said problem, as those were my exact symptoms as well. Problem started on the evening of the 17th... been pulling my hair out ever since. Even reinstalled the latest factory images (without wiping). I was so worried it was a hardware issue... glad it's not!
Hi All,
I'm an Android developer for Robinhood. Very sorry for the issue! We'd noticed it ourselves, but it took a while for us to realize that our own app was the cause. We have a fix ready to go out to the beta users on Monday. If you guys are interested in joining the beta, you can do so here: play.google.com/apps/testing/com.robinhood.android
Again very sorry for the trouble!

Hi there. Thanks for your reply. I don't use the beta version and I'm not interested in doing so for an app that handles my money. Please push the update to the stable build ASAP. Also, it'd be nice if you included the last-update-time to the widget. And re-adding the refresh button to the widget would be nice too. Thanks again!

Fix hasn't been pushed to beta yet. Will be pushing this afternoon!
Looks like the stable Branch already got the fix. I just got the update.
