Apps that DO NOT WORK on Rooted devices

[Unforgiven]

Negative Ghost Rider.

I got bored with app trouble and other inconsistencies in HTC Jellybean, so I'm on ICS.

Running that stuff and have books offline.

Hmmmm... ...well, I sounded smaaaat for about 30 seconds.

It was worth a shot, ok.

Does "works" that mean that transactions are successfully completed by tapping the rooted device on the vendor's device? I've only attempted it once and met with transaction failure and assumed that the "Unsupported Device", meaning the rooted Nexus 4, was the cause of the failure.

As early described above, the transaction goes through. May have been a 1 time misfire when you tried it

Play Books certainly works for me on rooted stock and with a CM based custom rom :thumbup:

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the idea here is to list apps that are designed to check for root and refuse to run if on a rooted device...not to list apps that have bugs in need of repair just because those bugs manifest on rooted devices.

I would think we should especially avoid listing apps that merely fail to run on an aftermarket ROM, where all manner of incompatibilities can be introduced such as missing libraries and whatnot.

That's the idea. I just didn't think I had to explain that much. Sorry for the confusion everyone.
