    Hi all,

    I saw this "new" method for converting apk's to bar's so I had to try it with Spotify. What seems: it works! I got Spotify running on my Q10 (10.1, no custom stuff). Best thing: everything works! Playing songs, saving offline, last.fm scrobbling; they all work. Button between volume also start/stops the music.

    Great work xsacha.

    So I suggest you try it out.

    Method used: http://forums.crackberry.com/android...erry10-817781/
    SDK version I used: 4.2.2 (API 17)

    Share your experience.

    Edit: Just noticed a couple already mentioned this in the thread as well. Anyhow, this way more people will find out as not everyone is going to spit through the thread.

    Sadly this is not possible this method signs the bar file with your personal debug token and device ID. Hope they maybe find a way around this in the future.

    Can someone please post a thorough tutorial on how to do Spotify like this? I'm extremely interested in doing this but I've tried following the other tutorials but I can seem to get it

    Guys, I don't think im an ***** or bad at working with computers but I can't get this done. I've been waiting for a working sideload of spotify ever since but this is just too big of a hurdle. Can someone make a tutorial for dummies? I'm sure you'd be reborn as a king or something if you believe in karma, haha.

    Earlier ones work just as well, or at least the version I had first. I downloaded two and thought i was using 0.6... but had a 0.5... version bar that I converted first and loaded (mixed the two up after download). I replaced it with the newest after I noticed but at least we know the older ones work as well if anyone has a desire for whatever reason (i cant think of any). Cheers man. Good stuff.

    one thing I can't get to work - I can't get it to store my password - it seems to need you to login every time you close the app and restart it

    First time I restarted it wanted my password but since then it's been fine.

    I've also used xsacha's method to get the latest android Spotify running, however, as with all other DROID apps I've installed, the user interface isn't very smooth.

    Has anyone got the phones music shuttle keys working? Mine doesn't, nor does the bluetooth media controls via the bluetooth music profiles. Is this the same as everyone else's experience?

    Just a gentle bump - does anyone have the shuttle buttons workings for the music then? I can't get any joy with mine.
