They will probably declare bankruptcy soon but they do have a nice Netflix type deal which they let you rent both movies and games through the mail. I am interested in the game option since it appears to be cheaper than Gamefly or any of the other mail-rental game businesses.

lol... good Q... I think netflix shut them down... and stream what videos.. its 3g... at least on 4g the videos are HQ like u would see on wifi... on 3g its gona be blurry as a crap... so why would u pay money to watch a movie that will be chopped need buffering all the time and low quality?
the blockbuster app is coded to look for fascinate software, could be a simple build.prop edit but I doubt it. It looks for something that tells the app the phone is a fascinate. Disable the app to not look for a device i.d and it might work
the blockbuster app is overpriced crap. Just wait for MediaHub.

I thought Sprint was going to let us remove stuff

Pretty sure you can uninstall it....
You can remove most of the Sprint apps, not the HTC ones, though.

I tried it tells me it was unsuccessful unless you know what trick on an unrooted phone

should let u remove it, just go to settings, manage applications, then all, and select the sprint ones u want to get rid of
On all android phones once you get root all the bloat can be removed. Usually titanium backup is the easiest way, but sometimes through adb.
It isn't that sprint 'isn't letting us'. HTC has the phones this way to keep the majority of inexperienced end-users from removing the wrong things and messing up the phones.

I'm pretty sure I don't need Flickr and Amazon mp3, heh.
Can't wait to remove these dumb HTC apps.
The Amazon Mp3 one isnt bad if you end up using their Music Cloud service.

I'm also curious enough to leave Blockbuster alone for now. I'm hoping that we have multiple options for accessing 3D content (i.e. HTCWatch, Blockbuster, Netflix)
You can remove sprint tv, nascar, the blockbuster app, sprint navagation, and one other i don't remember the name of.
These can be removed without root.

anyone know of any? I'd like video sites, streaming, or even some tube knock-off site! just somewhere to actually use the 3d... I was told Vimeo had 3d videos, but either they don't have a proper web player or I just simply couldn't find any there. so, someone must know!! but if none, I'd also like to find a 3d picture site? is YouTube the only one???

Seems a bit dodgy why does it need GPS location data?
not sure why it would need GPS. If it was supported by ads then i could understand as it probably needs it to deliver ads that pertain to a certain location. Lots of apps use things that make no sense.
Not sure why it would need GPS. I only turn GPS on when I am using NAV anyways.

Thats weird seeing as they have the "Motorola X2" Listed under compatible devices. I havent been a big Hulu watcher but maybe I'll give this a try.
market version works great for me, but I have hulu plus
wish HDMI-out worked though
installed and went to watch from free gallery and just buffered forever and said network error.
more specific it said it appears u have network issues try again later.

when I'm on 3G mine will sometimes get stuck like that, especially if I try to fiddle with the video quality. After I've touched that setting even if its set at low it gives me grief.

JS, I have to admit I made this post prematurely. I didn't realize this hulu.apk did NOT include the hex fix which allows full free viewing via the web browser.
For some reason, I was under the impression that this application provided that fix as well as providing the Hulu client.

Huli is an online TV show/movie streaming website. They have a lot of shows and movies. But they are going down hill. Too much stuff on their site is going to hulu plus. Regular Hulu is free but has ever growing commercials, hulu plus you pay for. Its basically YouTube for TV and movies but with more commercials and you pay for a lot of stuff :/
It was a great service in the beginning, but they were loosing money and needed some way to stay afloat
Check out hulu.com

This was there plan all along. You build the fanbase then slowly make features a premium service. Some shows have only 3 free episodes. They may only post just that weeks show in the future.

I thought it was that they kept paying the companies to stream their shows. I used megavideo after they put 8 or 10 commercials in each show and started doing hulu plus. But now I can't use megavideo either :/

The app does not work on my phone. It gets stuck at "Verifying application integrity". I'm running RezRom S4.
I'm just wondering why the app requests root permissions. Good app though.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
I suspect that asking for root is a security check. Content providers are very twitchy about this on demand from anywhere stuff. I denied it. No reason for it to have root except to see if it's there.
Do u know if this is supposed to replace the old xfinity app? Cuz that one was laggy as fux.. and it only changes my channels when it wants too

I denied it too. Hadn't thought they might just be checking to see who is rooted. Interesting...

Is there a way you can stop the app from checking what subscriptions you're paying for. I just have internet and directv streaming is a bit behind xfinity.
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using xda premium
So you don't want to pay for cable but you want to get the content for free?
No.
The DirecTV app is still on beta mode and its who I have my "cable" subscriptions with. I was able to watch a show yesterday on xfinity and the hd quality is excellent compare to the DirecTV app at this time. Just wondering if it was possible

There's a reason why you have to sign up for satellite on contract, and it isn't because of how awesome it is. Comcast has contracts now, but they are optional and mainly a way to lock in rates and get something free.
everyone i've ever known who signed a contract with a sat company has regretted it. they make you pay for everything, too.

How is the HBO's streaming service on your HTC One? For some reason or another, the highest streaming quality I can attain is 480p. Why is this? My Internet is strong, my brother's iPhone outputs 720p, yet I'm stuck with poorer quality.
Can anyone else who has HBO GO comment on the streaming quality on their device? I'd to really like to know if it's an isolated issue or widespread.

Good question. I'm not sure but the quality is downright poor. It's odd because other apps like Hulu stream in HD fine.

Not that it matters for as I cant even login to HBO Go, MAX GO works just fine....wth
Mine seems ok as u can see from the screen shot I tried to get here...but it can get blocky at times I noticed...but for the most part it's fairly clear....if u look at the app page in play store seems like there are a lot of complaints about how the app is bad lately....maybe there's something wrong in general....
