OPPO Community has a list of Uncompatible APP list of Android 13.
Do you think this list is missing any? Or are there any other apps that has to be included?
I haven't come across an uncompatible app yet, or I may not have been using it properly. I know their multi-screen connect has specific pc requirements, and is not an app so I can't really add to this list.

First, yes I read the FAQ's before posting. There are several apps that aTD says have updates available, but the Market does not list the newer versions. I know the FAQ says to e-mail the developer, but I guess my question is why are updates available that are not published in the Market? It's not that the app is not in the Market at all...it's there and has had updates in the past. Only now apparently a new version is available that is not listed in the Market. I've e-mailed several app developers and will post here if I get an explanation.
Also, one of the apps aTD says needs to be updated is the Market itself. I have version 1.66, and it says 1.71 is the latest version. Can I download that from Google somehow, or is the Market version a built-in part of the ROM?
atrackdog relies on updates from phones with atrackdog installed. Say I'm developing a cool, new app. I release version 1.0 on the market for everyone to use. I'm testing version 1.1 on my phone and have given the apk file to a few friends to test for me as well before I release it to the market in general (I don't want a thousand e-mails from people saying my app is br0x0rz, so I have a small test group locally.) If one of my testers has atrackdog installed, it will faithfully upload the new version information to atrackdog's servers, telling all other atrackdog users that my app has an update available...whether it's in the market or not.
Thanks for the detailed explanation! Now why the aTrackDog website couldn't explain it that concisely, I don't know.
Does that same scenario also apply to the Market? It seems less likely to me that a Google app would be on tester's phones that also have aTD installed.

Ah, ok. That makes perfect sense then. Thanks for the explanation.
About the market itself, I'm going to guess that different Android devices might have different versions of the market on board. If Google tweaked the market to be Moto-droid-worthy, they might have used a different number and atrackdog will show it. I'm sure about my answer in the above post. I'm just guessing on this one.

That also makes sense. I suppose the Nexus (for example) would likely have a newer version of Market and that would be why aTD picks up on it.
After using it for a few days, I don't really see the usefulness of aTD from a practicality standpoint. Every app on my phone that aTD says has an update available, isn't really available on my device (except for SlideME, which is unimportant to me). It would be more useful if the app detected the user's device, and only showed updates applicable to that particular phone.
That's true. When atrackdog was released, the market app didn't give notifications when updates were available. Also, at the time, there wasn't much on the market itself, several 3rd party markets (like slideme) were also out there, and people outside the US didn't have market access anyway. It filled a gap that's largely not there anymore (for US users). I know several countries still either don't have market access or no access to paid apps from the market, so it may be very useful to them.
It's useful for a few apps which post their betas on google code, etc, such as Wireless Tether...
The Android Market is hiding many apps from Samsung Galaxy Tab GT-P1010 devices... they say it because the apps are incompatible with the device because it is not a phone, just a tablet. But those same hidden apps are available to other tablets and show up for them, plus I've downloaded several of these supposed incompatible apps on other devices, transfer to the P1010, installed and they work fine???... what's going on with that... anyone know what's really going on?

I don't have a p1010,just a gsm tab but I also get incompatibility message because of my present location as indicated on my gmail account I use to access the market.
Try to use market enabler.
When you post apps on Android market it tells you which hardware requirement does the device need to meet to run this app. Sometimes the requirement is just touchscreen or location sensor etc, but sometimes it is more than that. Maybe some sort of error and your device isnt on the list of devices which show up after the filter is applied.

If I root with z4, is there a way for me to have my p1010 identify itself as a p1000 so that I spoof the market?
I want to propose a project that anyone can contribute to that will help bring near official quality Google apps to the windows phone. Any developer can contribute as they will be open sourced...
I would like all the apps to be built using the new universal code methods provided by the latest visual studio update so that the apps may be ported for windows rt.
Would anyone else be interested in this?
I currently have a Google Music app out (and also undergoing a full redesign of it at the moment), but I'm not open-sourcing that unfortunately.
Hi,
I like to know your experience with the Voice Infos App:
http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fabbro.voiceinfos.trial
This App is listed as OFFICIAL Android Auto compatible:
http://play.google.com/store/apps/collection/promotion_3001303_android_auto_all
But, I don't know how to use it!
It's not listed anywhere in AA and I don't know how to start it.
Can you help me?
Coming from my Nexus 6 (and Android Nougat), I can download apps to my Nexus 6 and:
1) Keep them in my apps icon / list
2) Keep them off of my Desktop, but still accessible on my phone through the app icon / list.
How do I do the same with the Xiaomi Mi Mix?
I am on the Chinese version of the September build, and to my surprise the Google Play Store was included in the build (I thought it was not incorporated in those builds).
After I installed by sim, and started by phone, I had forced all my google play store apps to transfer to my new Mi Mix. What I do not understand, is that all the app installed on the desktop (very cluttered).
Is there not a way to have them look and feel like all north american versions of the android smart phones ? ? ?
Where the apps download and install to the smart phone, but do not necessarily remain on the desktop home screens?
Cheers

MIUI is like iOS.
No app drawer and all installed apps on the screen. I have placed the MIUI apps I don't want into a folder and moved them onto a page I never access. You could also install Nova Launcher or something like it which lets you use a more conventional launcher.appearance.
Once rooted you can freeze apps or disable them.

Amen to that brother, that was my original choice (to create a single folder and throw all the apps in there). Question, does it organize them for you in an alphabetical order?
I was afraid of that. I thought the method used by most of the Android like operating systems from the days of lollipop - - - nougat, did a bang on job of app organizing. My last iOS was the original iPhone 2g, and later the iPhone 4.
Personally, Xiaomi missed the boat with that (MIUI / iOS)
