Has anyone tried? Has anyone succeeded? If yes, how? If not, why? Are the phone's specs compatible?

I tried the original Play Store location, it says my device is not compatible. I'd like to know if there's a way around it, or if there's no point trying.

Thanks!

App is designed for Android 4.4... so no it's not compatible.

Some have reported limited success in installing it via Cobalts solutions, and the app does require patching. But as yet I haven't seen anyone say that it is really working... It crashes or freezes or Pokemon don't show up.

Thank you for your reply.

I am aware that the app is designed for the newer versions of Android, however, none of the Android apps are made for BlackBerry and yet most of them work on BB10. So logically (?) one could presume that this app should work on BB too, to some degree?

I guess I'll have to try on my own and see what it does thanks!

BB10 version 10.3.2 has an Android runtime that is built upon Android version 4.3. So any Android app that runs on older versions up to 4.3 itself has a chance of working on BB10. It's called backwards compatibility. Nothing on 4.4 or higher even has a remote chance of working since there is no 4.4 code in the BB10 Android runtime itself.

Requires 4.4 as a version check but that can be hacked away. Deeply embedded with Google Services as Go was made by a former Google company who also made the AR game Ingress. Probably won't be able to patch that away to make it playable.

App not compatible because the BlackBerry Passport is not a toy

I tried it on my cheap Amazon Fire tablet with CM12 since it won't install on my Passport. What a dumb game. And yet I see these morons walking around and on the busses with the instantly recognizable blue/green gps map on their screens. LOL. What is the world coming to?

That's a bummer... the Passport would have been the ideal device to play the game. Just look at the size of the screen and the phone in comparison to the old GB!

It's working on mine, but it has to be the first app opened after a reboot and when it crashes you have to reboot the phone to get it working again.

What I've been doing is using my bros ipad mini and tethering it to my passport. Works great, and each of the devices uses less battery bc they are sharing the workload

I know, right?! Fair point!

FSeverino, that sounds unnecessarily bothersome (plus I have no iPad) :/ Thanks for the input though!

I wish morons who have nothing relevant to the topic to say would just keep their stupid remarks to themselves.
Oh well. Guess not everyone can be as smart as their smartphone.
