Anyone else get a Market upgrade today to Version 3.0.27? Mine has an entire new look with Apps, Games, Books and Movies! I'm liking it!
Yup, I spent a lot of time browsing movies. Anyone know if we can get them on the gTab/what ROMs?

My GTab already has Netflix working so I don't want to rent one from the Market. My GTab is rooted and running TNT 4.4 ROM.

My Vegan-tab gingeredition auto-updated it's market sometime yesterday. I don't even see the movies option. Apps/Games/Books.

Well, it's a DCMA restriction to prevent piracy... so unless they bring in some heavy DRM protection, rooted devices won't be able to play movies through the market.
Quoted from Google Support:
Playback not supported on rooted devices (Error 49)
We do not support playback on rooted devices for copyright protection reasons. You can enjoy your movie on a different device, or on your computer at market.android.com/movies, or on youtube.com/movies if you have a YouTube account.

Is anyone else having issues with the Market on VeganTab Gingerbread version 7. My wifes table is running that. When I launch the Market, it crashes after 6 or so seconds. I removed the update, and it worked for 30 seconds, but then I guess it repushed it self and then crashes again. Tried clearing cache, and all that jazz, but seems like the new version of market isn't working any longer
Are people having issues with Vegan Tab 5.1.
Thanks for any advise or comments

When is netflix app gonna be available for Xperia X10. I know right now its supported only for 6 devices. Anybody has got the apk for official netflix app then please share it. Thanks!
The Netflix app works with Android 2.2 and up. Officially, the X10 is at 2.1 for much of the world and stuck at 1.6 in the United States. Also, the Android Market locks out devices the app isn't meant for, so to get it through there you'd have to have an HTC Incredible, Nexus One, Evo 4G, G2, or the Samsung Nexus S. The X10 doesn't qualify to run the app in Netflix and Google's eyes.
If you're running a custom 2.2 or 2.3 ROM, you can always try to find the APK.

As previously stated, will only run in 2.2+.
Follow thread link for instructions.
Works perfectly for me...
If your on jerpelea's latest CM7 ROM, then just search Netflix directly from the market, that's how I found it. I currently have Netflix, HBO Go, and WatchESPN all streaming perfectly to my device.

I wouldn't advise updating the Netflix app. I did yesterday and now I only get audio and no video. I'm running CM7 beta. Can anyone using stock or another rom confirm if yours is working. I saw in the app market comments that others were having problems as well but haven't seen anything over here.
I have stock gingerbread and I don't have any video issues. Although I was getting like a fast forward audio/video thing when I started a movie. It corrected after I stopped and started it. I like it better because they fixed the orientation situation.

Well I guess it's a cm7 problem like the HBO to Go app. Damn, I love the rom but this needs to be fixed. Hopefully I can flash a backup to get it going again.
yup i had the same issues. i just re-installed a backup of 1.4.0 and it works fine again.
Well, I did a cwm restore from a backup I did 2 days ago. I opened netflix and gave me an error about my device being deactivated, I just clicked through the ok's and it logged me out. I logged back in and all was well. Also, after reviewing the bug reports on CM7, I came across an interesting fix that may work for plex, I'll post the link below in the hopes that it will help somebody.

I'm running a rooted at&t stock atrix g4 and have no problems with Netflix.
The Amazon Instant Video APK has been pulled from the Kindle Fire and can be installed on the Galaxy Tab 10.1.
A couple of caveats:
(1) To use the Prime Instant video features, you must first purchase something to login. There is no separate login otherwise.
(2) It appears to only work over wifi
(3) If your device is rooted, it will not work.

Umm...for the simple fact that you can use Voodoo OTA temp unroot from the Market. Also the new version of this APK in todays 6.2 update doesnt work. It says this device is not suppose to be able to run Amazon Video Player.
I assume Amazon is cracking down...

Never heard of temp unroot, thanks, but yeah, as of late, amazon released a fire update, ruining everyones root on the fire and deleting the market. Probably part of that updated.
Pr0tip: This works on Gingerbread but not on HoneyComb.
Bunch of hypocrites, they sell root only apps

installs and runs great on hp touchpad. however on purchase and login i get the following: Error linking device: Unknown error
What do you mean it runs great? I get to the point of seeing the button to play the video, but it is grayed out. I can play Amazon videos fine on my Exhibit II by temporarily unrooting the stock OS. It seems Cyanogenmod is somehow detected, because it doesn't work on my Nook Color with the Cyanogenmod either.

whoever wrote this article obviously has never had the balls to root a device and actually see what is possible, or even research it for that matter
I have the apk that allows me to play the videos for free that come with the amazon prime account (I signed up for a free month), but I don't see how to 'borrow' a book for free - this also comes with the prime account on kindle devices. Anyone have any information on how to do this on a Galaxy Tab?
Only Kindle devices can borrow books for free with the Prime membership. (you borrow directly from the device)
Two things. One KFHD looks for the device to be logged into amazon, I bet this requires framework not on our devices. Two, probably crashes when trying to view due to same.
Bottom line? Besides logcats to figure things out, I'm pretty sure a system dump will be needed to get the correct files to go with this......

You don't need to temp in root either. There's an xposed module called root cloak that let's you pick specific apps to hide root from. Works great
Has anyone got the Amazon video app working on their Prime? I installed the apk from another thread on XDA. It installs fine but when I click on a video it says "Unfortunately Amazon Video has stopped."
the only amazon app i found in the market on my prime was mp3, so im assuming the other amazon apps dont work, i been trying to get amazon shopping to show up
It isn't in the market. I'm talking about the Amazon Video app taken from the Kindle Fire which is reportedly working on other tablets as long as they are not rooted. The apk is available in several other threads on XDA including for the Nook. It would be very cool especially for people with Prime to get this app working on the Prime. My guess is it worked on the Prime on HC but not ICS. I didn't try it on HC before I upgraded to be sure though.
doesn't work here either
I wasn't able to get it working on mine either. I was able to sign in and everything, but any time I click a video I get an error. I don't see why this app is exclusive to the kindle in the first place. It really limits their sales.
I haven't tried it myself, but I seem to recall reading a thread that stated that you could watch movies via the browser just fine.
I got it working on a rooted kindle by using voodoo to temporarily unroot.

Nope, shouldn't matter. I'm on ICS. Find the free version APK and sideload it, and then it gives you the option of logging into your MLB account to get the audio streams.

Thanks, I will have to learn how to do that for future games I guess, I'm at work typing on the phone right now so....
I have the free version on my phone, that one works. It's when I tried to upgrade that it won't.
Hey, it's a thread I have something meaningful to contribute to. I just got this working today. I have At Bat 12 Light, but I had to set lcd_density back to 320 to get it. Then I found I couldn't stream video. So I did some googling and learned how to spoof the phone model. See, MLB only allows video streaming on pre-approved devices. Rezound isn't, but galaxy nexus is. There are 4 (I think) build.prop entries that need to be changed. Unfortunately I can't find the link at the moment, but you shouldn't have too much trouble searching various keyword permutations.
Wait, is anyone able to buy the MLB at bat app that costs 14.99? This is the one I can't download because it says it's not compatible with the Rezound. The "lite" version isn't the problem...

So I have the At Bat Lite on my phone, when I try logging in to my MLB account it still tells me I need At Bat 12, which it won't let me do. What am I missing?

But you're using the free app and logging in with your MLB paid account right? The free app is compatible, the paid app (for those without paid MLB accounts) is not

So I just paid $20 for the annual subscription to MLB.com, do I also have to pay $$$ for the app to listen to games?
No....
If you paid and have a MLB account, you should be good to go.
I have the 24.95 sub which includes the video (but doesn't currently work on the Rezound, just the radio audio feeds work).
I downloaded the free "lite" version of MLB and just put in my log and pass and it works fine on unrooted stock GB.
To be sure that I wasn't losing any MLB access or features (outside of the live tv feed) I also put the "Lite" version on my Dinc (which does work with the Live video feeds) and it worked fine...
So you want the MLB lite app.
I personally went to the MLBTV website and subscribed there.... Got my log and pass and then downloaded the app from Google Play.

Thanks guys, this is what I did and it seems to have worked. It's obviously not an ICS problem since there are guys using it without trouble.
The ROM absolutely does matter. There are several apps that I cannot reload on CleanROM 4.2 from either pushing from the Play website or downloading in the Play store app. In the latter under "My Apps" it actually tells you it isn't compatible when click the app and go to its page.
