Playstation Mobile region problem - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello. I have my PS3 turned on and trying to log in via the built in PlayStation Mobile app. It just says "This service is not available in your country/region". Why is this app even installed on my device if I can't use it? I'm of course trying to log in with my working Playstation Network ID.
Can it have something to do with bying the phone from UK (I live in Norway). If that's the case, any ideas, please ?
Cheers, yo.

It does indeed have to do with the fact that you bought the phone from the UK. The Playstation Mobile app is supported in the UK so that's why it comes pre-installed there. You can just remove the app if you really don't like it though.

Also I tried to update the app when prompted and when i tap install it doesn't do anything, i can only hit cancel??

Amazon app store (Canada)

So, i know the app store is only for US and not really for us... but because most of us have custom roms, were able to use it.
So i tried it, and it said its not available in my region. Is there anyway i can bypass this ? :S so that i can get apps
type amazon appstore canada in google and you will get the info in the first link.
I would like to include a link but I still dont have my 8 posts required to add links it seems.
no longer works, just tried it
the appstore is now working for Canada!!
I'm still getting a message saying that "Amazon appstore for Android is not yet available in your region". Anyone else getting this? What's strange is that I've downloaded from the Amazon appstore before.

Same thing is happening to me. I just downloaded the app store application but can't install anything. It must be opening up to Canada sometime soon, right?

I tried to download Charlie Brown Christmas App and was denied "...region". I was still able to download my previous purchased apps. Other free apps were also denied.
EDIT: use a VPN (hotspotshield) to purchase the app on your computer. It will then be available on your android device for download & install under "My Apps".

Just tried it on my PC, its not working, still getting the same message, and apparently for some reason amazon.com is still detecting I am in Canada (I get the "shopping from Canada banner").
Strange that hotspotshield is indeed working (verified my IP using several methods and even got region locked hulu to work without a problem).

Looking for "USA Today for Tablets" App

Hello you all, I'm looking for the "USA Today for Tablets" App - only the version for smartphones will show up in the market... Hope anyone can upload the APK for me and all the others!
Thanks!
Google can be helpful!!! https://market.android.com/details?id=com.usatoday.android.tablet.news
If all would be so easy Guess what? I've tried that already but it won't let me install the app to my device. That is the reason why I've come here and asked to the apk

I went into the market on my Xoom, went to the Featured Tablet Apps section, and it was right there at the bottom. It installed fine.
How are you not seeing it in the market? When you try to install it from the website (the tablet app linked by handshake87) it should show you your tablet as an option to install it to. If you can't install it to the tablet it should have a reason shown as to why you can't.
If you can't install it from the market or the website then you have another issue you should probably look into. Since I just installed it I can get the APK using titanium if you still need it.
I think the problem might be that I'm accessing the store from Germany and it's a branded T-Mobile device...
So how about anyone uploading the APK for me? Would really appreciate it!
The apk might not work since it's coming from a U.S. xoom versus your version.
I would love to try if anyone would upload the apk
Not responsible for what happens if you try using the file (e.g. soft/hard brick, bootloops, etc.), but here you go from a U.S. wifi version.

If you're getting the error in the market that says something about the app not being available for your carrier, you may want to try what i had to do on my x10. If you're on AT&T in the US and try searching for tethering apps they are not there. So what I ended up doing was putting my phone in airplane mode and using wifi (removing the sim card and working on wifi does the same thing) and once I did that, the apps would show.
So if the apk file posted doesn't work for you (i see no reason why it shouldn't) try removing the sim from your xoom, connect to the internet over wifi, and look in the market again.

[Q] What happened to the Shazam app?

So... I had Shazam on my HD7 and the market informed me that I had an update for it.
I tried to update it many times and kept getting an error saying something like "can not get this info right now. Please try later".
I uninstalled the app and went to reinstall it but now I can't find it on the market. Did they remove it???

Heh I got stung with that also .. Seems gone to me as I can't find it

Hmmm??? Anyone happen to know why Shazam was removed? Anyone know of a good alternative?
Sent from my T9295 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
I don't know why it was removed from Marketplace but i got a note on mine the other day when updating saying something like a new version is coming that only allows 5 tags per month, but if you had it installed before 12th May you will still get unlimited Tagging or something.
Another thing too is that it's duplicated on my phone, i've got one in my Apps menu and one in my Games menu
i received the update and shazam was under my games icon i think it was removed to update it again so it shows up as an app not a game

Well... I have just checked the Marketplace again and I am still not seeing or finding it listed any longer. I have sent Shazam and email inquiry on this and will post their response when I receive it.
Now I wish I diddnt un-install it as I now lost all the info, tags, etc I had stored in it but it would NOT update for me no matter how hard or how many times I tried.
weird the update went fine for me but the app wouldnt work so i turned the phone off and back on then it worked fine its actually really slow now it takes a while to open but it tags really fast

It doesn't even show up for me anymore at all. I updated a few days ago, then (believe I may have restarted in that time also) and it was gone all together. Right after I went back into marketplace to try to install it again and it showed up, but only with the "Share" button visible. The activity you get when an app is already installed. To this day, it's still not installed of course. And worse, it doesn't show up in the marketplace anymore. Even Shazam Encore, which was showing up at least, isn't in the market anymore.
It is now located in Games (Xbox live)

Answer from Shazam...
Hi everyone... See below for the answer I received from a Shazam Customer Service rep on this issue...
Daniel Van Damn, May-20 14:09 (BST):
Hi there
Sincere apologies for the delay in getting back to you, and for any issues caused by our recent update.
The issue has been identified and resolved, and the updated application has been submitted to the Marketplace for final approval. You'll be notified within the Windows Phone Marketplace as soon as it's available for download, this should take place within the next couple of days. If you've previously had unlimited tagging within your application, this will remain unaffected post-update, and will for all future updates. If your app is being stored in an incorrect location eg. the xbox gaming hub, it will be returned to the correct location.
Again, we're very sorry for this issue, and for any inconvenience it may have caused. Please feel free to get back in touch with any further questions or concerns you may have.
Kind regards,
Customer Services
Seems like everything will be back in proper order in the next few days...
You can find it in the Games Tile (Xbox Live). For couple of days I thought I lost it too..

No... Mine is completely gone as I had uninstalled it because it would NOT update and when I went to reinstall it, it is no longer listed in the Marketplace. My issue has nothing to do with the app being moved into the games hub.
That being said... I have still not seen it put back in the Marketplace since I received the email response from Shazam Customer Service. Can ANYONE seem to find it "re-listed" in the Marketplace as of yet?

[REQUEST] Sirius XM 1.6 APK

Does anyone have, or have access to, the new apk (v. 1.6) of the Sirius XM app? I would love to try it on my Xoom and see if it works. This is the only thing missing from my perfect tablet.
This was the first thing I thought of when I saw the update was released. Sadly I still can't make it work, it gets stuck at the "checking for updates" notification and then times out back to the login screen.
I've tried clearing the app data and reinstalling the app with no results. If you or anyone else figures this out please share.
Try inserting the app into data/data with matching permissions.
May work that way. Maybe.
It's working for well for me, doesn't look perfect, but the station quality is great.
Sent from my Xoom using XDA App
^ what method did you use to install?
once again it only works on 3g xooms... sigh
I suspected something like that when I saw the permissions requirements on install. It requires (Phone calls: read phone state and identity) and (Serices that cost you money: directly call phone numbers), which seems kind of odd to me unless they're using your phone number to track/identify you to the service, or determine your location / country (license or channel listing data maybe?) to build the initial app database.
So this means it's probably getting stuck trying to access the device modem and because there isn't one it just times out.
I'm curious to see if someone who also has the app on their phone and copied the /data/data/com.sirius folder over to the xoom after installing the .apk normally would have any better luck. My phone is rooted but my xoom is not so I can't try it.
