Yes, it works for me. I just opened it, signed in, and flipped through an issue of WebMD. Got mine from the same place.

Anyone have Zinio force close on them and then fix it somehow?

I for the life of me have not been able to get Zinio to work for me either. Press reader works fine. But I really want the magazine app since moving from stock. Would also like to know how you guys got it working.
EDIT: I think it depends on what versions you're using. I finally got it to work. Instead of installing "ReadingHub", I installed "ReadersHub" with the zinio from the link you posted. And it's working finally. Check it out. Tell me if it works for you or not.

New version from G2x posted here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1051812
http://www.2shared.com/file/vN9kCbWw/ZinioReaderRegular.html
I installed it and can open it but can't login. I created an account at zinio.com but it still won't let me log in via this new app.
It says "Warning: Network connection is unstable, do you want to retry or use the application in off-line mode?"
The network connection is fine.
- Retry just results in the above message again.
- And off-line mode just results in "Your username or password were incorrect. Please try again."
Anyone get the G2x version working?

Better than last time, as the News app works now but the others are not lit up and clicking on them gives a "Service will be available soon".
I made sure to install all 3 apps, and even installed Zinio twice after seeing this error.
Any ideas?

A tiny bit farther now.
The Magazines app is highlighted, I can launch it, I can log in, and then it FCs. Without even pressing Force Close, the app re-launches, logs in, and FCs, continuously over and over.

I was having that same issue. Only other suggestion I have is to install both versions of readers hub and zinio. They shouldn't overwrite each other. Then try launching zinio from Readers Hub. Not Reading Hub. See if that works.

I have both versions of Reading Hub installed (two entries in my app tray) and two version of Zinio.
Unfortunately, the first still force closes immediately on tap of Zinio and the other force closes after launching Zinio and then attempting to log in.
Paul,
I just installed the new version from G2x. In the G2x thread they have also extracted a settings APK which also needs to be installed. It is contained in the second page of their thread.
I installed both APKs and it finally worked perfectly. I am using the latest nightly of CM7, and having a magazine reader makes it a perfect tablet

Thanks a bunch for that. I really had no need for ReadersHub. I use the Nook app for my books. Happy to just have the Zinio app working! Finally I can get magazines without the stock reader... Now only if we can get a "Read To Me Books" app, then I can do away with stock completely!!!
Thanks again kind sir,

just got my TP yesterday. Love it so far. One of the first things I did was install the hulu patch (can't believe hulu just locked out web os users) it worked great on 3 different occasions last night and tonight no such luck. Tried uninstall via preware then reinstall then reboot but still nothing. Any ideas?
thanks in advance....
nooooooooooo I just installed the patch lol oh well good thing I have my laptop. Does anyone watch wilfred
i just tried it as well to see if it was an isolated incident.. unfortunately it's not... the hulu patch no longer works on my touchpad either
"Unfortunately Hulu is not supported on your platform. We apologize for any inconvenience"
Blocked for me also.
Yeah. Not working for me either but I'm sure there will be an update.

Then complain to Hulu, not the patch writer.
http://www.hulu.com/support/contact
yeah cause hulu will say "oh we are sorry, its not like we purposefully blocked your device on purpose purposefully". the touchpads browser version string and flash version string both read as not being listed as mobile devices on hulus block list. then they blocked the touchpads flash version which the hulu patch fixed. dunno this time if its the browsers version string on the new flash version. but im sure it can be easily fixed again. i would have recommended against changing the version string for the browser so we could get tablet versions of websites and while we should because its running the same version of webkit as the ipad, nothings different from that of a desktop.

i just complained to hulu by canceling my subscription after trying/playing with the service for around 5-6 months, it's just not worth it.
seriously it's crap.. not only can i not watch from my TP, my sony TV which legitimately has a Hulu app cannot stream most of the stuff from hulu due to hulu saying "we don't have right to stream to TV for this video"
90% of the videos has to be watched on a browser with a computer. not to mention the premium service still has COMMERCIALS, WTF? i specifically wrote down why i'm canceling and i hope others do the same.
what a pointless service..
I emailed hulu and told them I canceled via my touchpad.
Can't use hulu on Googletv either.
Eff em.
has anybody tried porting the silk browser from the kindle fire on the hp touchpad?
yea the browser FC when you open it AVP loads up but there is no way to sign in and when you try to start a video it just says this device is not configured any more

Yeah the browser is working here for me too. Can't say I like it though, but it works.
Any reasons as to why it wouldn't install on my Touchpad? It says application not installed. But it was fine with the first version. However it was giving FC as to eveyone else. Maybe it's signed incorrectly?
One of two reasons : Either its signed incorrectly or not signed at all or there is a previous version existing.
Worked here also after following the steps in the first post of that topic.
TBH though, I'm not impressed at all. Boat Browser still beats it for me on the TouchPad.
@ puneet_champ
But I don't get what can be wrong as others managed to install it on their Touchpads. As you found the solution for the FC maybe you can have a look as to why the application refuses to install? thanx!
Edit: Nevermind. Managed to install it. Cleared everything and did all over again but this time didn't change the permissions and it worked. Thanx for nice work just one thing that I noticed. Even if you choose to use desktop mode in the settings it still gives mobile websites e.g. there's no way to have Vimeo in Desktop mode
Make sure to follow the directions fully. Set permissions correctly and REBOOT

Mine wasn't working either... it was installed as soon as I logged into my google account and all my apps from my SGS2 were funneled onto the TPrime. It kept crashing out as soon as launched.
I ended up just searching the market for it and re-installing it seemed to do the trick. The menus are choppy as hell but it works.

In the tablet settings enable something like "force hardware acceleration." I think it is in the developer section. If you can't find it, I can look at it latter and give a better explanation. That should speed up the scrolling.
Enjoy!

Try a service like Entropay. Create a credit card with a US address and use it for Netflix.
they want scan of my ID, passport and driving licence got email immediately after registering there.
ive ran out of ideas, guess i will give up on it but thanks for help

edit: IT WORKS ) ive registered with my real slovakian address and credit card, they asked me to send them ids, so i did. After about an hour my virtual card was OK. And it was accepted by netflix without problem... what an awesome stuff youve got there in US im impressed. (btw hulu doesnt work)
thanks for highjacking my thread....guess i'll never get my netflix working...woe is me
If you are rooted and own titanium backup you could try freezing the app and installing the one from the market which should install as a data app instead of a system app.
Have you tried clearing the data/cache in the app setting by going settings>apps and scrolling to netfix? I can't recall the exact location since I am at work.
Does it give the same status even if you don't have any updates installed?
ive tried many netflix apps, but this one works for sure. try it, maybe it will work for you too. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20911810/Netflix_1.6.0.apk
When i try to install the above apk, i get an error message that says an existing app with a conflicting signature exists...which makes sense asi am unable to uninstall the original netflix. Seriously im having a hard time believing im the only one experiencing ts problem?
OP are you rooted? Uninstall the netflix update, then try deleting the Netflix.apk from /system/app with root explorer, reboot, reinstall netflix from the market.
have you done a factory data reset since you upgraded to ICS? I had a lot of quirky bugs right after I upgraded but thy all disappeared with a wipe. Asus really should have included that as part of the upgrade.
anyways, google can backup your apps if you let it, so all you have to do is re-define your settings. I was done and ready to go within an hour of my wipe.
hopefully you dont have to do that but that will probly fix it. good luck!
Agree, a factory reset can fix all kinds of software issues and with Google App Backup it is easier than ever to recover.

It installs fine from the market on any tab. But with most tabs you will not get the TV icon to watch live video and archived games unless you edit the build property.
I installed a nightly a couple of days ago which reset the 4 lines from the OP back to default. And MLB.TV live streaming still works.
So looks like you could change the device in build properties, reboot, run MLB At Bat Lite, go back to original build prop., reboot, and At Bat live streams should still work.
Model must be stored in the At Bat confg I guess.
Is a Premium subscription really necessary?
Do you really need the MLB TV Premium subscription to get this working? I'm more apt to pay $15 for the At Bat subscription than I am to pay $125.
If anyone's gotten it to work without the Premium subscription, can you please let us know how you've gone about doing so?
Thanks!
You cant watch live games with the $15 at bat app except for the free game of the day.
at bat lite only works with a sub

Good to know thx!
MLB must have changed some things.
That must be why it still worked for me after installing a nightly. And my build prop got reset.
can't get by location check
I almost get at.bat working. I have CM9 installed on the touchpad, and log in with my MLB membership, and I have a premium account. I signed up just for a month to test this stuff.
At.Bat installs fine, when I try to view a live game, it doesn't get by the location check, says it can't figure out where I am and doesn't let me watch. When I look at details of the app it says it just checks cell info and GPS info, which of course doesn't exist.
When I view through the Android browser, I ask for the browser to show me the full non-mobile website, then it lets me view video because it checks my location via wifi.
I need to tell the app to use wifi to check my location. How would I do that?

I can confirm this. I just installed the CM9 nightly from the other night and I didn't have to to anything special to watch games on my TP.
Thanks guys, fake-GPS did the trick.
I have a few questions about Fake GPS. I have it installed and have it set to China. I live in San Diego, so I opened the At Bat app and tried to watch the Padres game but it says it's blacked out because I live in the zone.
How are you guys getting Fake GPS to work? Do I need to not use the At Bat app but instead watch the game through my browser?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
After installing fake GPS try clearing data on the At Bat app and logging back in. I needed to do that once

You need to watch through Atbat lite only.
You might need to set "Allow mock locations" in Android's settings.
Also, you may need to reboot after changing location in Fake GPS.
