[How-to] Tomorrowland app on your Jolla
asked 2015-07-22 08:25:20 +0200
Hi Sailers!
Tomorrowland Belgium is about to start and they released an Android & Iphone app with the timetable, important information, stages, ... As this is an international & popular festival, I guess some people with Jolla Phones will also go to Tomorrowland. However, installing the Android app on your Jolla simply doesn't work.
Why?
Google Play Services are necessary to run the app. If you tap the warning away, the app will crash.
The fix
On the Crackberry forum you can find Gmaps Patches from Cobalt232. A link to the topic: Gmaps Patcher topic on the Crackberry forum
- Download Gmaps Patcher & run it.
- Download from the web the Tomorrowland APK.
- Load your Tomorrowland APK.
- Click on 'Analyze APK'.
- Normally, Gmaps Patcher will detect 2 things to patch.
- Click on 'Rebuild'.
- Load the patched APK on your Jolla and install it.
- Have fun!
Cheers, Dylan
I had never heard about this type of patcher before. Thanks a lot..!

molan ( 2015-07-22 12:53:33 +0200 )editYou're welcome! It's the first Android app I tried that worked... I also tried Snapchat but that didn't work succesfully. The pop-up disappeared but you can't login. Making a new account works perfectly and you're logged in immediately however, if you logout you have to make a new account on Snapchat. Patching with Lucky Patcher failed, so I tried Gmaps Patcher.
It depends on the app for which feature they require Google Play Services.
