Local play store where got music section? Really is anyhow whack.

If you are one of those who are lucky to get glitched to see such stuff in Play Store, remember most people here are not that lucky.

Google Play just updated, now I'm able to purchase movies and music - www.hardwarezone.com.sg

play store already fully opened to sg...we can buy movies/drama/music etc already...

 

[jedi5diah]

another 10 tracks are free

also some christmas tunes

a number of best tracks 2013 also free

 

[jedi5diah]

you might need to search for google play movies & tv
enable the app and walla...

Ya. Those music, books, movies are opened to SG sometimes back.

What some of you guys are encountering the result of a glitch, it's not common, most of us here don't have it. I have VPN so I can see it, but outside of it, there's no access. The shots below were just taken, not stale shots.

Enjoy it while it lasts guys.

Of course it doesn't tell you, it's not that smart. The user needs to find out.

Use it while you can, who knows it may disappear on a new update.

Been accessing it for a few years now, but since I never buy media from Play Store it's next to useless (not to mention the prices on books/magazines/videos are quite a bit expensive). Play Music upload of songs is awesome, but not touched it since Spotify landed in SG.

Spotify.. means i must have my oen songs in the cloud.. then i go on the road.. i use my data plan. - which costs many money to stream it right. ho is there any lag?

Play Music is notorious for being lousy at streaming here (most probably because it's not meant to be used in SG for now). Spotify on the other hand, I had good experience with it even on the Nexus 4 with HSPA speeds.

Both services allow you to cache songs offline. If you prefer that to online streaming, I recommend Play Music (if you can get it, it's not as easy as last time as I recall), it's easier to cache compared to Spotify, which requires usage of the desktop client. I never really monitor the data used, so far have not hit any data limits. Mine is 4-5gb per month limit iirc.

The advantage of Spotify over Play Music is not having to "hunt" down songs to upload - most popular songs in SG can be found easily, more of an instant gratification approach.

i use spotify as my player at home on desktop(free), no need to buy music anymore, library of music is updated fast and impressively huge.

I have a used Seidio Active Case (w/ kickstand - color Royal Blue) letting go for 20 SGD. Still in mint condition.

Bought it only a couple of months ago for 29.95 USD(around 38 SGD).

pm me if interested.

Hi, anyone here using local Nexus 4 losses their Data Connection often after upgrading to 4.4.2 (KitKat)?

I have this issue of losing connection (no H, no 3G, no G sign next to the signal bars), after upgrading to Android 4.4.2. Confirm no internet connection, only phone signal. It doesn't behave like this when I was on 4.3.

I can't resolve it by turning on and off Data Connection, or turning on and off Flight mode. Only solution is to restart my phone, but problem always come back after a day or two, and it is getting more and more irritating, not knowing that you lose Internet Connection only after you check your phone.

Tried Factory Reset, does not help.

Any help is appreciated.
