Zinio player is an app available at the Marketplace, to read electronic magazines. It's based in Adobe Air (that works with this tablet). Zinio reader downloads and installs, but when you start it, it says it's not supported for this tablet and exits.
Is there a way to make it work? Maybe faking tablet identity?

I know that their are issues with the BBCi player and ICS update that means the app doesn't work on the Prime but, I found that in practice I can play recorded content from both t.v and radio but not receive live content. In fact their is no menu option to chose live t.v or radio in the app, well not that I can see.
Is anyone else seeing the same scenario? Is it just the Prime or indicative of all ICS powered equipment? Any ideas? Rumour of updates etc?
I know about the get-a-round vis the desktop version from a browser. I am just wondering if it is only my Prime that semi-runs the iplayer app or if this is just a result of the bbc not getting it's app update act together?
I have installed the iPlayer and all it does it to take me to iPlayers web site. The app does start with iPlayers black screen but immediately transfers me to the browser. It seems its trying to do something and then gives up.
I repaired phone software yesterday and worked fine prior to that but now when downloaded it requires bbci media player giving the impression it is about to work and then goes to black screen.Reloaded Adobe flashplayer .apk but to no avail.Trying to source BBCI player .apk and try work around.Such a pain.

Not tried bbci player but wanted to share with you how I access live bbc TV

Hi,
Don't think someone asked this yet.
Is Zinio working properly on Tablet S and other Honeycomb tablets in general.
I have Zinio installed and has been using it a long time on my phone.
Started using it recently on my Sony Tablet.
Although the magazines seem to work fine, the interactive magazines donot work.
e.g. The Nat Geo Interactive OR the free One Icon magazines does not have their interactive components working.
I checked the installation folder and found out that the video and other interactive components have downloaded fine and they are playing with either the Sony Video player OR the MX Video player.
But it is not working from within the magazine itself when opened from Zinio app.
So, ideally its no use if I cannot "interact" with the interactive magazine.
Has someone else faced the issue as well? I wrote about this to Zinio customer care but they have not replied.
One more question is whether Zinio interactive magazines works at all in the other HoneyComb tablets OR is this just the problem of Sony Tablet.
Hi,
I am currently using good, old iPad 1.
Via VPN I have no problems with accessing Netflix and Hulu Plus.
All I had to do was to create additional iTunes accounts in USA to get those apps.
Not even jailbrake was required.
My question is (or are):
If I will get myself one of the above tablets (TF300 or Prime - on iPad I can not watch my mkv's 720p stored on my NAS drive) will I have problem/is is diable/etc. getting both Netflix and Hulu Plus to work?
One more thought... since ICS seems to be using some sort of Chrome browser for android... is it possible to fool Hulu that I am using desktop instead of mobile device in order to avoid Hulu Plus subscription (which is annoying since quite a lot of stuff I want to watch has description "web only" and will not run on iPad despite payment).
I am currently using nameless-4.4.4-20140719-p4wifi-HOMEMADE rom on my galaxy tablet 10.1 Wifi model, but I am having problems finding launchers that can put ebooks like epub or mobi etc
also I noticed while looking at a kindle rom that it has access to the ivona vox_en_us_salli22i voice, which doesn't seem to be usesable under google play voices when searching for ivona I think.
I tried to install kindle launcher on a standard android system, from a apk I found while searching the web, but it seems to only not crash on bluestacks app windows based android software which I tried on my pc
the only working launcher that I could find that uses the epub files in a library or bookshelf almost style is LitRes launcher-ru.litres.launcher-1086-v1.0.86.apk
Anyone know of other ebook launchers that can work without crashing on either epubs like LitRes launcher but better more like kindle launcher
Please reply about ebook launcher free ones preferred that work on android system 4.4.4 specificly based on nameless-4.4.4-20140719-p4wifi-HOMEMADE?
also I wouldn't mind a modded ebook based rom like nameless but with launcher and software specffic to playing of ebooks, can we ask for kindle android software to included some sort of software plugin so we can use the text to speech with ivona voices on our android, since I don't think kindle is very going to support tts on android without a unofficial version , not sure such a plugin or something like that is even possible , I know by changing kindle firmware bin into a zip I can see that they included one copy of ivona voice with its system, and for some reason our android version of their kindle reader has the text to speech disabled or removed from the android versions, which is what it seems since you can see the ivona vox_en_us_salli22i voice is included with update-kindle-8.4.9_4952820 rom bin file, I don't own a kindle but its clear its based on android from the structure of their apk and files, so I have to guess that the kindle reader on a kindle device has the option to use text to speech in its reader, but they have disable it on very standard google play version of kindle reader, so people are forced to buy their kindle device instead of a android one in order to keep users wanting that feature of course I could be wrong, but I hope you somewhat get my point there, and sorry off topic but any luck finding launchers that include ebook features besides Litres launcher.
There is an actual Kindle Fire launcher here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/sho...X8ps-7-oaeoX4SIOg&sig2=3R6MYgJT6nBKilOWBsXlPA
But for some reason, it keeps crashing until it completely renders itself useless, so I had to remove it.
Hi Guys,
Apparently, the Nexus TV player in the UK has a Now TV App. I was wondering if anyone will be able to provide me with the apk for the app. I tried sideloading the one from the Google Play store, but it loads sideways and I cannot navigate it using the remote. I am hoping this won't be the case with the Now TV app on the UK Nexus Player.
Any one at all? Pretty Please
It is apparently pre-installed on the UK version of the nexus player if that helps?
i'm in the UK and there is no NowTV app for the nexus player in the play store.
there is also no pre-installed app either.
I am in the UK as well and can confirm there is no preinstalled app, if there was one I think this would make me subscribe to the service.
ive only just picked an NP, updated to android 8 'O' and sideloaded a few apps after installing forced landscape app to fix the portrait display of now tv, all4 & itv hub.
i have the latest now tv app running fine apart from errors when i try playing a show. logs in fine & displays full menu & navigates well with mouse. i'm gonna try a fire tv fixed app to see if that works.
unfortunately i had All 4 working completely until this evening when i got an update notice with forces me to the store with no means of updating. itv hub has never worked & iplayer works without issue. a real mixed bag.
thank god it's got chromecast function otherwise i'd be furious with this very limited device. rooting seems inevitable.
