[UPDATE]Play Store 4.0.27

[Guest kyan31]

The new Play store was made available a while back, but it won't be shipped to all devices for a while. Luckily the latest version is available as an APK online, so I made some flashable zips for them :)

I have created 2 variants, one normal, and one stripped. This is not multi-dpi, so if you flash this, do not change your screen density or you'll have problems. They are also universal, so it should work fine on any device. Just flash and your done.

EDIT: Added the APK's too, you can install them like normal which is probably the easier (and safer) method :)

Play Store 4.0.72 - Flashable | 4.03 MB

Play Store 4.0.72 - Stripped - Flashable | 3.53 MB

Play Store 4.0.72 - APK | 5.89 MB

Play Store 4.0.72 - Stripped - APK | 5.29 MB

You may also wipe cache/dalvik, it doesn't hurt.

+1 if it works well, thanks.

The new update looks a lot better, but what is the actual difference between the stripped and normal version of this?

Stripped one is a little smaller, personally I'd go with the unstripped version as its only a few KB different.

[Guest george109]

Ok, Thanks :)

[Guest marcioo]

Seems cool xD

[Guest krishang3]

I find this much better than the present ply store this is lighter, smoother and much user friendly.

[Guest Alkafer]

Ok, this is weird. Since I install this market, I can't install any apk from outside the market. The "install" button doesn't work, I touch it again an again and it doesn't highlight. But I can play the "cancel" button without problem. Can anyone please try it?

See you!

[Guest Alkafer]

Sorry, double post.

nice, thanks.

[Guest Prog_Drummer]

Thanks for this Kyan,

When trying to install apk via adb I get error: 'INSTALL_FAILED_ALREADY_EXISTS'. Do I have to delete the older version of play store first and then install as a system app or just as normal?

Thanks

You can just install it as a normal apk, you don't need adb or any system app voodoo.

OK, nevermind, I reboot the phone and it works now.

This is a very nice update, useful and beauty. Thanks Kyan!

[Guest jamie_w]

How do we install the .apk?

Thanks

Really? :ph34r:

Ok, you need to download a file explorer. Find the apk, click it, install. You may have to allow "Unknown apps" to be installed, it will prompt you if it isn't allowed so no worries.

[Guest saiem1]

Thanks Kyan once again

This is much smoother and vivid

Kyan, on downloading an update for catlog, I have these permissions:

Just wondering, Does this superuser permission come as default with the new play store?

The Play Store won't grant SU permission if thats what you mean. However, if you do have root, the play store will actually tell you if an app needs root permission.

[Guest Titas]

Thanks for the priority access ;). Nice fresh look!

[Guest hippy dave]

If anyone uses a slightly naughty app called Freedom, be aware that this Play Store update stops it from doing what it's meant to do. I don't know if Freedom will be updated to work around this, but in the meantime you can revert to the older Play Store, do your thing, then upgrade again if you want to.

[Guest Rico_89]

Was just going to install this and realised the update already rolled out for me lol..

[Guest Gabriel94]

Yeah, it's official now.
