Having flashed took paranoid Android 2.50 and loving it, I have lost the Samsung video editor.
Googles movie studio is just riddled with bugs and crashes like crazy, so I'm looking for the Samsung apk.
I came across it but after installing to system and changing the permissions..... Nothing!
Does anyone know if the Samsung editor works on paranoid Android? And if so which apk do I need?
Thanks guys
you need to dig out the videoeditor libs from stock or cm rom, that might make it work..
Many thanks.
I have trawled the forums and found the latest version of the Google movie studio, the one that's in the stock ROMs, and I get the same issues. Primarily it won't allow me to add transitions.... It just hangs.
Any further thoughts?
Each and every video Editor in the play store is either incredibly slow or fills your device with ads....
Hi everyone. I am planning to buy a noble Hd but I live in Europe and I have a couple of questions.
Will I be able to fully use it or will i loose any features? I plan to istall cyanogenmod. I mainly need it to read so will i be able to insert ebooks and read them?
The most important is that need to read from the web.does the crome browser support article view?
Does it worth to buy it or not?will i have access to all android apps?
Thank you in advance!
If you install Cyanogenmod you will lose the Nook app store, which isn't a great loss. You will still be able to buy/read Nook books if you install the Nook app, but you will need to either find the apk or install the 1mobile app store, as the Play store will say the app is incompatible if you're running Cyanogenmod. CM11 (Android 4.4) will give you vastly better performance than the stock ROM, though, which is a heavily customized and somewhat locked down Android 4.1. As long as you install a gapps package you will have Play store access on CM. Play store and various Google apps are built into the latest stock ROMs, so either way you can have Play store access. If your books are DRM-free there are many choices for epub readers. I prefer Overdrive Media Console, Readmill and Play Books (note that while Overdrive and Readmill can load locally stored epubs, Play Books requires you to first upload the book you want to read to the Play Books site and then re-download the book through the app). Those are just my personal favorites, though; there are a ton of epub readers out there. Fabrik is also another outstanding epub reader, but I don't use it because it's very slow to load. If you are using the mobi format you can use the Amazon Kindle app. I can't tell you much of anything regarding the capabilities of the Chrome browser, as I prefer Opera or UC Browser, nor can I vouch for article view, as I'm not sure what that is supposed to mean exactly. You might investigate the Readability app if Chrome doesn't do it for you, but the capabilities are the same as any other Android phone or tablet, so if you have an Android phone you can test out Chrome in advance, before you buy the tablet.

Thank you for the immediate and full of content response. I am about to buy the Noble, I just have to check for the article view. It is actually a mode on mobile browsers witch remove all unnecessary content in order to read articles,opinions , actually anything written in the web.
Ah, well, that sounds pretty much like what Readability does. Like I said, I don't know if Chrome does that or not, but if it doesn't you should be able to share the page to Readability and then it'll do it.
Barnes and Noble in the US only ships within the US. You'd need to use a reshipping company to received the nook in the US and forward it to you. shipito.com will do this for about €35. Alternatively B&N's UK store currently has all Nook accessories for £5 (http://www.nook.com/gb/store/accessories). Again, if you're not in the UK you'll have to get it reshipped.
The latest Nook firmware doesn't have the Nook Browser, and it was this that had ArticleView. Anyway when you install CyanogenMod all the Nook apps will be removed, but you'll be able to install almost any Android app. As such you may want to ask the visually impaired community if there is an Android browser that fits the bill.
I realize this sounds like a generic Android issue versus being specific to the Nexus 6, but I don't see this issue on my other devices (N5, N7, HTC EVO LTE etc), and am wondering if there is something specific to the N6.
Anyway, here's the issue. I opened up the Chrome browser to Androidpolice yesterday, and found playstore links to some apps that I wanted to look at. I clicked on it, and it launched a chrome window for the play store, and let me view everything as expected. I actually didn't even realize that it was a chrome window (looked very similar to Play store app).
The problem is that when I clicked on "Buy" for a paid app, it went ahead without asking me for the password (I've set up Play store app to prompt me for a password for any purchase). That's when I realized that it was a chrome window - not the play store app.
Fine. Should be a simple enough fix - went to settings/app, and looked for Google Play store and looked for the "Clear Defaults" button - but that is grayed out! (I checked Chrome too, and that also had the button grayed out). I cleared cache and data for the Play store app, and tried it again, and it again launched the play store link in Chrome.
TL;DR So, how do I get play store links in chrome window to open up the Play store app instead of another Chrome window? Clear Defaults button is grayed out
Edit: This is the link I was browsing - clicking on any of the apps listed here brings up the play store in a Chrome window - not the play store app
Edit 2: Video highlighting the issue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17Hqd2k0SMo
Just tried your link. Links go directly to play store for me. Do you have any other apps or mods that may be affecting this? I can clear defaults on both chrome and play store as well.
That's what's so weird - those links works just fine on my N5 and N7 too. I'm stock, rooted (no custom recovery yet). Rooted only to install adaway. Other than that, no changes to the system partition.
Here, you can see the issue that I'm talking about - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17Hqd2k0SMo
The defaults button is grayed out for Chrome and for Play store, likely because I never set those as default apps for anything. The G+ app has the defaults button enabled because I have it set to open for G+ links.
Short of a full factory reset, any other suggestions?
I have the same issue, but for everything. If I click on a Mega.co.nz link it opens to the browser page asking me to install the app (app is already installed and set up), same for YouTube videos, Play Store links, etc. I tried disabling Google Chrome and installing Chrome Beta, same issue... I'm going to try Firefox and see if it will let me move to other apps from there. VERY FRUSTRATING!
Hi
I have successfully added Google Play Store to my Fire HD 8 (2022) and downloaded Youtube Kids. Of course part of this included installing Google Account Manager, Google Services Framework and Google Play Services. However when I attempt to launch Youtube Kids I get the following error:
"YouTube Kids won't run without Google Play services, which are missing from your device"
It goes without saying Google Play services is installed on my device. I tried clearing the data and cache and also updating it still no joy. Normal Youtube app works fine and so does Google Chrome, its just Youtube Kids that is not working.
It's worth noting this Fire HD 8 (2022) is running Fire OS 8.3.1.3. I have another Fire HD 8 (2020) which is running Fire OS 7 and Youtube Kids works fine. Could it be that the new OS is not compatible?
Please Help my kids are driving me mad!
Much appreciated!

Thanks for your reply but I have done this already in that I have successfully installed google play store and even downloaded Youtube Kids, its just that when I try to launch Youtube Kids it doesn't work. Instead I get the error "YouTube Kids won't run without Google Play services, which are missing from your device" although I have installed google play services as can be seen in the screenshot which shows my installed apps.

Those downloads no longer exist. New links?
Same problem, all other apps work, except for Youtube and Youtube kids.
When I go to install the Youtube kids apk, it says "Not available in your region".
Fixed, worked when I sideloaded the APK.. was downloading directly on Fire Tablet.
While the APK does indeed work every morning I get the same error again so i have to uninstall it and re install the apk every morning, so another fix would be amazing too while this one kinda works
I just spent 3 hours trying to get Youtube Kids working.
I really didn't want to install a dodgy modified APK, which could essentially have anything included.
Here's the solution:
- Uninstall any existing version of Youtube Kids
- Download and install YT Kids 6.37.5 from apkmirror (trusted source for original APK files)
- Open Play Store, search for YT Kids, disable automatic updates for this app, by clicking the 3 dots at the top right
This is the latest version I could find, which works on the HD 8, 12th Gen, without giving a play services error.
Because this is the legit original APK from Google, it will actually log you in, giving you access to history and other features.
Don't forget the final step, otherwise it will automatically update to a newer version which doesn't work!
(Testing as working - versions 6.16 and 6.24.3 and 6.37.5)

This still didn't work for me. Also, I didn't have a disable updates button. Instead, mine showed a check box for enable auto updates which was already unchecked by default. Any chance you could link each APK you downloaded for all of the Google stuff? I'm wondering if I clicked a wrong version somewhere.

I used the links provided above by engage4
Because I was also worried that maybe the Google files I used from another tutorial wouldn't be compatible.
The only other thing I did is to install regular YouTube from the play store, open that and select my Google account.
I did that before opening YouTube Kids.
I don't know if it makes a difference.

Thank you very much. Had the same problem and with this method it is working.
Hopefully it will work in the future also with the newer versions.
Thread cleaned of links and quotes to an APK from a shady site and in Violation of Rule 9 - Don't get us in Trouble.

I just want to confirm that this method works on the HD 8 12th Gen.
I used disabled wifi, Fire Toolbox to debloat, add custom launcher, install google services. I made sure that google play auto-updates was OFF. I then SIDELOADED via Toolbox the 6.37.5 version. I then enabled wifi, opened Google play and pressed three dots to disable auto updates. Signed in. Searched YT kids, again made sure it wouldn't auto-update by pressing 3 dots top right (DO NOT PRESS UPDATE). I then installed regular youtube, loaded it up and signed in. From within regular Youtube I clicked on my profile icon top right, scrolled down and pressed YouTube Kids (I don't think this is necessary, but since that's what I did and it worked I'll note it here).
Finally it works! Basically you can't have 'child profiles' and all that jazz, but you can declutter and restrict a fair amount and hide the browsers etc.

Hey Man. Thank you so much for the post. It worked a Treat.
I installed the 4 apps from a YouTube video (APK Mirror ) links and then installed YouTube Kids v6.37.5. Kid is very happy!
