I'm having trouble finding if this app would even work on the tablet. They are offering league pass mobile for $40 and I would really like to get it, but only if it would work on my tablet since it really isn't worth it just for my phone.
Does anybody have any info about this?
It's on android market. I tried to download it but it's not compatible with my device. Can some download it and post link with apk?
For some reason it's not showing up in the market for Honeycomb devices. I emailed NBA Digital, and they gave me a "no answer answer." I'll try to dig up an .apk
I'd be happy to pay for the app, but since I'm in australia I can't access it on the market. Hope I can find an apk soon!
the app is a sprint based app and is not available for wifi tab only a sprint tab since nba is in contract with the nba. you are better off trying to go to the league pass site through your tablet than searching the market, or maybe possibly just watching it through your tablets browswer

Not that app, this app. https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nbadigital.gametimelite That's the one we are talking aboot.
I tried watching through the browser and all I can get is audio. The video would never show up. Would be great to get this app then use HDMI out to the TV

I hope at least some of you have tried the free Zinio reader app on Android Market. It has a specific layout for Honeycomb tablets (not just an upscale of phone version). Though the subscriptions cost you, there are many free magazines available for you to test the waters.
What I want to know is, is it possible to read a page, in portrait mode, without zooming in? I mean is the text legible in default unzoomed condition, on a 10.1 inch screen?
Btw last month this app was updated to be optimized for Tegra 2 chipset. Here is a before and after video by Nvidia.
App works well. Easily readable. However, as I don't mind paying for magazines...I find it hard to pay the subscription fees for digital copies. They just seem high.

I like the app. Easily readable in portrait mode while lounging on my back porch.
Keep your eye our for free subs on any of the deal forums (fatwallet, slickdeals, etc). I snagged a year of popular science thru zinio for free a month back. Supposedly if you email the publisher xometimes they will convert your paper sub to zinio if you have an agreement through zinio. I havent tried that yet myself but I plan to soon.
Mediocre. Still choppy. Issues are same price or more than newsstand. Ipad2 app is much much more fluid.Android app is a tad faster.
Great to see positive reviews overall.
@xManMythLegend, is it that bad? Even after the update on June 22nd which enabled hardware acceleration?
anyone know if its possible to load magazines INTO zinio? i like this app and would like to be able to read the mags i already have in it. as of now, i have them in PDF. any suggestions?

find where the app stores its data, check the file format, if its the same copy your stuff in that folder
I have a non supported device (Notion Ink Adam).
Does anybody know of a work around? I tried changing the device to the a Motorola Xoom in the build.prop, but no go.
I may be in the minority here. But on my laptop I use Xfinity, quite often. When I pull up http://xfinitytv.comcast.net/ on my tab and then attempt to watch an HD video it tells me I need Microsoft Silverlight.
I have tried all browsers available to no avail. Any information would be helpful.
There's no silverlight for android.
The Mono team (the guys who make silverlight work on linux) supposedly had a Honeycomb beta of Moonlight running back in April, but I haven't heard a word since then.
The big problem has and will always be that Microsoft refuses to give any pointers about how it works, so it's all reverse engineering and hacky at that.

[DISCUSSION] WebOS APPS
Amazon Cloud Player tip
Other than the music stopping when the screen turns off....amazons cloud player is perfectly compatible.
Load the web player website in landscape mode. After it loads...put it in portrait mode and you should be able to scroll through your lists.
this clearly has to do with the cloud player detecting the screen resolution...but without an app or SD card...I have to rely on the cloud player for music....would suck if it didnt work

wipe your tablet and tell it you live in USA during setup and the whole market will be available. Search the forum, this was already covered.
During that setup i did tell it English, USA but the it recognized I was from Puerto Rico and didn't give me much of an option.

Here's what I think might work,
Connect a laptop to ethernet on your home internet connection then use VPN to connect to a vpn server in the lower (upper?) 48. Then set up your laptop to share internet over wifi (hotspot). Connect your touchpad to it then start over with registration etc.
How does a cool, refreshing, and free 6-Pack sound?

I've tried to fix it by creating another account, but then when I tried to access the App Catalog an error message was displayed. It seems that it does some kind of validation with the IP address.
Try the VPN approach, it's gonna work. Or maybe you can try with Impostah, which you can download it from Preware.

I was just coming to post this. Thanks. I have tried glimpse and it's pretty useful. Just sucks that I paid for it two days ago. Should have been patient. On the bright side, maybe it'll motivate the developer to maintain support for the app.
Glimpse and Sparkle already "ran out" last night. Was able to get the camera though.

i think i may be a little dense... how do i go about getting these apps? for example, big boss isn't on the hp app store...
Any luck with the Apps? I'm from PR but I have yet to open my TouchPad since a friend bought it for me. Its weird because I had full access to the Apps when I had my Palm Pre. I wonder if the information sticks from my old Pre to the new TouchPad if not I'm planing on registering it using my Sprint phone as a hotspot to be on the safeside.

Static libraries could be imported without changes most likely, but Java is not officially supported in webos (it uses javascript based on nodejs I believe), so you would have to do a complete program/ui rewrite other than perhaps any c/c++ compiled libraries included (but the different libc version may require those to be recompiled).
Hello guys its been only a week i've had the nexus player and im really enjoying it, i currently have the stock rom and my device is unlocked and rooted.
I have live TV 100+ channels via the app Mobdro http://www.mobdro.com/ which has to be side loaded.
For Movies and live TV i use Kodi and Popcorn time http://popcorn-time.se/popcorntime.apk both which have to me sideloaded.

How does the TV app deliver shows? I heard that popcorntime works via torrent which can get some into trouble with comcast. Curious if mob works differently.

I have comcast and i have been streaming from popcorn time and xbmc for a while with no problems. With mobdro you should have no problem it is not torrent based it is a "mirror" more than anything, it takes the live streams from different pages arpund the web and redirects it to a single simple to use app... They have many channels, discovery, science channel , history, espn, nba, fox, abc, cbs, thecw, and many more

Is there an easy way to find the US based channels/streams and is there a favorites list or anything to keep it easy? I'll probably just install it and find out, but others may be interested too.
yes most of the channels are from U.S and can be separated by preset categories like news,sports,shows. and yes you can have all your favorites saved and they come up as soon as you open the app
Just installed it and fiddled with it for a bit and it seems to be amazing... I tried to go Premium but it said "Coming Soon"...
I have no issues paying to remove ads.
Is there a similar app to popcorntime that doesn't use torrents?

We are in the same boat! As soon as they update to allow us to go premium i will! Its totally worth it. And if the increased funds make the streams more reliable then even better... Im hoping they bring back truTV, its one of the only channels i watch

I was having problems running showbox on my nPlayer. It would load everything but wouldn't play anything. Even with native player unchecked.
Maybe a future update will fix it.
I mostly use PlexBMC lately anyway as the plex Pass app for nPlayer is giving everyone, myself included, problems playing 1080 files.

hey i also had problems with showbox the first time i installed it. if you start fresh on your NP and try a couple different apks and in versions you might get it to work, i have not found the latest update online but the app updates by itself. and also it does have it hiccups from time to time so maybe you tried it when it was down? just keep trying, i do know that it took me like 4 different apks to get it working
I'm using showbox and it works fine.
I downloaded it from here:
http://www.coolvideoapp.com/
I'm running v. 3.84
I'm also using the 2 version of popcorn time
http://popcorn-time.se/
https://popcorntime.io
All these apps need a mouse control to move into the menu/movie list.
I hope that in the future the developers will upgrade the apps to work just with the Nexus Player remote..

What's the legality of showbox for a US user? Is it storing and seeding a torrent from my IP address or am I accessing a stream?
I've never been personally dinged by comcast, but I have a friend that was recently and it isn't fun (probably going to have to settle for $3k after lots of precourt crap).
Thanks for any info provided!

I dont really know but i think legally it is the same as any other app/website or program to watch free pirated movies... and im not sure about showbox but i beleive it is acessing a stream if not then it is a torrent but it is treaming the torrent storing it in ram and then deleting it, you dont keep it, you dont seed it same goes for popcorntime.
the solution is to buy this

Showbox is streaming, no seeding at all as it isn't a torrent. It is illegal, however but Comcast won't be sending you any threatening letters for it.

Do I need to be rooted to use this keyboard/mouse pad??
I've got everything working perfectly on my nplayer including all the apps I could ever need but only use kodi with plexbmc and either ororo.TV or genesis or sportsdevil. Also the Showbox add-on for kodi works better for me than the android apk.
No! Not at all, the otg and the keyboard are plug and play

Does the device needs to be rooted for popcorn and the rest?
Can't you just sideload it as in any Android Device?

Hi everyone. CW Network recently released a new VOD app for Apple TV, Roku, and Xbox, and Fire TV... but not Android TV. Someone on Reddit was kind enough to rip the Fire TV apk and post it for people to try, but there are a couple of issues. One is the Amazon ownership check (which doesn't seem to allow it to run even if you have the CW app on Amazon's app store), and the other is a strange error message about network connectivity. Could anybody take a look at it and see if it can be hacked to work on the Shield?
Reddit thread:
https://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidTV/comments/556f46/heres_firetv_cw_app_shows_on_leanback_launcher/
APK download:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/gkokbqq27s4vaxv/The_CW_com.cw.tv.android_1.0.0_106.apk
..
The guy who ripped it says that the leanback intent was already in place.

I'll pull out my old Fire TV stick from storage and pull the apk this evening.
Edit:
Decided to try right away. The CW app was added to my amazon account and installed on my Fire Stick directly from Amazon. It still gave the connection error. There must be an issue with the app if the app is still giving a connection error on a Android device it was designed to be used on. I'm assuming CW will released an update to fix the problem soon enough. When they do, I can remove the amazon checks.

Weird, it works perfect on my Fire TV and Stick downloaded directly from Amazon. It doesn't work on any Android TV device though. I don't know how to crack the app. Someone needs to crack the app and see if he can get it working.
..
Would you be able to remove the checks on the PlayStation Vue Firetv app as well? I would love to be able to use it on my Shield.
Its not letting me post the link since I am a newer member but please let me know if you can do it and I'll DM you a download link.
Thanks!
..
Thanks for putting all this effort in. I'm away from home (and my Shield) this week, but I will try it when I get back.
Finally had the opportunity to try it. It no longer throws the ownership error, but still throws the connection error.
..
Cool. I'll keep an eye out for that, and I'll reply if I find anything regarding a new APK. Thanks!

Anything new happening on this front?
There are two network connections made at the initialization of the app. They are both going to Amazon WS. Both appear to have issues, probably because the User-Agent isn't a Fire TV UA, and the request that gets the license reports "android" from the Shield whereas the Fire version reports "amazonfire" on the posted data. Because of the differences, the license returns "invalid" on the JSON response.
If the responses that come back from the Fire stick were to come back to Shield, the app would function perfectly. I had changed the two URLs to my local webserver to return the good responses, and I could browse and watch episodes without issue. Beautiful picture.
With that, the app is very specifically blocking Android TV devices.
EDIT: Correction, the User-Agent is not used. It is just the "amazonfire", which is based on one piece of code. A small modification gets this working without needing to host the two response files.
Attached is an apk to try out.
** Edit: current version doesn't work anymore. Removing ***
That's awesome. I'll try this when I get home from work today. Would it be difficult to do this to the USA and Cartoon Network apps as well?
Seems to work awesome. I was able to watch an episode of the flash without issue
I took a look at USA Network and the Cartoon Network apps. The Amazon app for USA Network is a webapp, so it is unlikely to work without bigger modifications. Cartoon Network appears to have a few issues (title bar displays all the time, no leanback launcher banner icon, Amazon hooks). I'll take a look, but at least they have added casting support to the Cartoon Network Android app for now.
Thanks for posting The CW App, while the Content seems sparse, and not really my thing (DC Comic Universe), it does at least work, and thats something.
