[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

I'm also from Puerto Rico ad I can confirm not all apps load in the Catalog. This is sad Anyway to bypass this location issue? I want kindle App
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?
If you have an HP TouchPad, get ready to spend some quality time in the HP App Catalog. We’ve selected six apps that normally sell for as much as $14.99 and we’re making them available at no cost to HP webOS customers for a limited time. (See free offer details below.)

[INFO] Free Apps from HP (6-Pack App Promo Codes)
first the firesale on TP now HP giving away the apps: http://blog.palm.com/
apps (promo code):
Glimpse (injoj55410gavxv)
Kung Fu Panda 2 Storybook (vfimk09918lngoz)
Big Boss (vfimk09918lngoz)
Sparkle HD (pweuq32135vrbhx)
Camera for TouchPad (rijon62171nhvtu)
Audubon Birds (jjiox66488ddnik)
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 have no idea what kind of quality, but anyway here
Offer expires on Aug 31
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).
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
Finally upgraded to N2 from Incredible. So far the phone is great. My question is anyone know how to print to a network printer from this phone? I don't have Samsung printer. Thanks
Many printer mfg's have apps out for printing from your phone, you just have to see if yours is supported.
If you have a printer that is connected to a network that you have a computer connected to, you can go into Google Chrome on your computer and set your printer up as a Google Chrome printer. once that's done you can access the Google Chrome printers from the internet and print things at home while you are out and about. Including from your phone.

I picked up PrinterShare Mobile Print in the Amazon App Store back when they offered good free apps and that's what I use when I need to print from my phone or tablet. Allows printing to supported wifi printers, Google Cloud Print, and I think a few other options.
Thanks all for the tips. I'll try them out once I get home later.

+1 on PrinterShare. Got it back in the good ole days when Amazon had some useful free apps. Premium is $12.95 but goes on sale a few timse a year.
Another vote for PrinterShare. It's hands down the best all-around printing solution for Android devices. Most other apps are hit and miss, or require specific printers and/or phones. PrinterShare has worked with every Android device I've tried it on, and it's worked with every networked printer I've used with it (including a 12-year-old printer my parents are still using).

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.
This is not a complete guide but The Steps i followed to set up my Device.
First i bought this otg hub which has 2 usb and ethernet http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00J2N0GB4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Second i bought this keyboard/mousepad http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B9996LA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Third was Rooting and i used this guide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7EWKbzqltGk&list=PLq4EPW92B28fazduXRYawJZ0yA89W-Bxa&index=2
Fourth was sideloading apps https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N03TYKcg8ro&list=PLq4EPW92B28fazduXRYawJZ0yA89W-Bxa&index=3
Fith step for me was to be able to install any app but directly from the playstore which this guide showed me how https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymjySfRFFHI&list=PLq4EPW92B28fazduXRYawJZ0yA89W-Bxa&index=6

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

Hey in addition to showbox there are two other apps i have not tested in the NP but might work, one is Tv portal http://getandroidapp.org/applications/entertainment/1456-tv-portal-stream-tv-movies-1-1-12.html and the other one is Movie tube https://www.movietube.co/download/

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?
Thanks!

Disney+ is on a free trial in the Netherlands right now, so just for fun and curiosity really, I grabbed the APK for the Disney+ app here...
https://apk.support/app/com.disney.disneyplus#per_area
and installed it on my Note 9, and fired up my VPN, connected to the Netherlands and attempted to launch the app.
I guess it must be doing some kind of region check on my phone at launch as it just stops. Visiting the Disney+ app page on the google play store via VPN informs me that the app is incompatible with all my devices even though I have two Nvidia Shields and my Samsung Note 9 as well as a few other android devices - it's definitely running on Shields in the Netherlands as they have been shown on various web sites.
Anyone know of any jiggery pokery we can try to get this thing running on our None-Netherland devices - because we can :silly::silly::silly:
Thanks.

The app you linked isn't complete. It's legit (I checked the SHA-1 hash against an installed, working version of the apk and the one from Google Play are the same).
If you use a VPN provider with an IP based out of the Netherlands & Aurora, you should be able to properly install the app on a rooted device.
SAI (which Aurora uses) allows you to install split/bundled apk or extract complete bundles to archive for later.
You can't login though. The app will give you an error if you try to proceed with signing up or try to enter an existing login. I don't know much more beyond that.

Yeah seems like Disney has their uber A-Game engaged for VPN blocking too - probably why they launched the beta in a smaller market, test the load balancing and the gate-keeping all at once.
get it to work with anything?
Did you check any other server? if its not working then you should go for another option like PureVPN or Cyberghost. They both are working fine.

How to install Disney + using the SAI app.
Hello everyone,
I searched for this but ddidn't find it. So forgive me if I missed it. Here is a link to get Disney + to work on a rooted android device.
https://youtu.be/SOdkuy9dZGs[/url]
There is a link in his description to all the files to download plus the SAI app. It was very easy and I've already watched two episodes of Star Wars Rebels so the app definately works. the Disney + app is split into three pieces then reassembled by SAI.
Good luck!!
?
This worked for me on my rooted Huawei Honor Note 8 !
I had Disney Plus on all my other devices but I could not get it on my rooted Huawei honor note 8 and now it works perfectly!
Thank you ?
