[Q] SiriusXM app? - Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet

Anyone able to get SiriusXM app to work on NT?
It installed for me with no problem, but when I try to login, the progress circle just spins.

Maybe I'm having a dense moment, but wouldn't the Nook need GPS hardware to pick up XM? Then again, I only have XM in the car and may be missing something.

Yea, I should have known that. I had the trial internet option for awhile several years ago.

I get the same thing. I'm sure it's just the Sirius app itself. It's notorious for being one of the biggest POS apps in the Market, and it appears that Sirius and/or the devs couldn't care less about all of the complaints in it's comment section.

same issue at first
I was having the same issue, just a "loading" indication, then it would just close out with no message or error. Today I just got the updated apk, and now it will go through with logging in and updating some files, but then when it's about to pop up with the channels, I get the Force Close notification.

Q&A go to Q&A. Getting tired of moving threads.

this not connecting is still happening...it's a shame too, I listen to downloaded Stern Shows and would love to take this task and put it on the tablet instead of listening on my phone and wasting that battery....
any updates would be great

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!
Did you update your time and date?
Try deleting and installing again with a reboot?

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.

Stolen Prime

Hey all, I need some help.
I left my Prime in the seat back pocket of an airplane and when i immediately went bak on the plane to get it it was gone! I unlocked the bootloader so devicetracker.asus.com isn't helping me at all. I didn't have any other tracking software on my prime.
Any ideas? I have the Serial number and a Device ID from having it sync'd to my work email. HELP! Am I SOL?!
IM bummed for you
Sent from the Beer in your goblet
Why don't you sign into the google play store, push mobile lookout to your tablet, and see if you can auto track it that way. I'm not sure if you have to setup the app first which would make this procedure pointless, but worth a shot.
Good idea. Call me stupid, how do i do that?

Lookout sign in, and press INSTALL. Better hope it has an active WIFI signal else it won't install until it does.
Give this a try. It works fine with my phone, and It's perfect for your case:

You know, thats a very good idea, but i think you need to setup lookout on your prime the first time you install to set up tracking, last time i checked that is, I think that goes for all apps,
I think a developer would make killing if they managed to create an app that can do what you suggested
Edit: Never mind, thanks victorvasconcelos ^^^
Hope someone figures something out for you OP, because thats a damn shame, good luck
Some advice as an aircraft mechanic.
You're not getting it back.
Android Lost is another great app for this type of situation. You can push it to your Prime via tha Play store website and then use the Android Lost web interface to hide the app from your Lapp draweraking it harder to notice and uninstall.
Also from the Android Lost web interface you can force the device to take photos using either camera which will then be emailed to an address of your choice. It can also track the device via GPS and you can lock and password protect the device remotely. Of course all of this requires an active data connection, but it is pretty useful.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS5hbmRyb2lkbG9zdCJd
None of those will work if the person who nabbed it has wiped it or changed the google account on it.
I hope you get it back, but as one that left a palm pilot in a seat from a 13hr flight from Japan, I do not see good luck in your future for this.
Lookout won't work even if you install it through PC. You would still have to once downloaded run it and sign up/activate it all. There's no other way since you didn't prepare your tablet for the worse case scenario. Consider it gone
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA
Lookout has an app called Plan B. Install it from the Play Store from your PC, and it will auto activate when it finally downloads. It will attempt to locate itself and send you the coordinates to your GMail account. Of course Wifi has to be active, and connected to a network, and the precision of the location is dependant on how good your GPS is, or how many WiFi networks it can see.
As for the Asus Device Locator, boot unlocker does not disable this, only a non-Asus Rom will. I am running a rooted .21 stock ROM on my unlocked Prime, and I can locate my device on the Asus site. If you have stock ROM and the device locater will not connect, its possible the WiFi is off and/or the Prime has no data connection to any Wifi network. The nice thing about the locator is that if it is found, you can activate the "ringer", which on the prime just makes it emit a loud sound. Handy if you are in the area of the device. I have not tested remote wipe nor lock device.
maybe a stupid question but.....
I don't think you mentioned this and this may be a stupid question but Have you gone to the airport or airline to see if someone turned it in to lost and found?

Possible, but lets assume that their an android noob for now, what i'd be concerned about is whether they have a charger or not, as you'll probably have to wait until they get round to charging it before you can do something, OP should take that into account if hes not getting a reply
Question, do you have a credit card saved on your playtore or anything, if so did you set up keylock?

Plan B was already linked on 1st page, as for Plan B I have personally tried it after READING it on the 1st page. My Prime is in a office GPS is on connected to our wifi and multiple wifi's around. Plan B installed but no e-mails after 10min so far. I think it relies too much on GPS for location, as it seems to be designed more for phones with cell coverage.
"After you install it, Plan B will start locating your phone using cell towers and GPS. On some phones, Plan B can switch GPS on automatically. Your location will keep updating for 10 minutes."
So you can try Plan B but don;t count on it as I am sitting next to my prime with Plan B on it and I have no idea where it is?
Also as I stated before if the gmail account has been removed or changed, you are not getting any software pushed from the play store onto your tablet.

I disagree, always prepare for the worst.
Forget the account begin removed, Tablet taken stuck in workers locker, driven home then turned on, Chance of an open wifi not good.
Plan B does not seem to work well on prime from my experience so far.
If the person who nabbed it is stupid enough to take it hook it up to their own home wifi and start messing with it before wiping it, they deserve to get caught.
I hope for the best, but I do not see it working out that easy. It would have been easier if it were a phone or if the software was on there from the start.
Good luck and keep us posted.
I would stick with Asus Device Locator as long as you were running a stock ROM. A wipe can't change the serial number. If the unit is off, has Wifi off, or is in an area with no wifi, none of these other apps are going to work anyway.
The sad news is that without Wifi, the Prime could never report is location even if a locator app was on it running.
The good thing about the asus devicetracker is that even if they remove your Google account or factory reset the device you can still track it.

Step 2: Register your phone
Simply start the program. Thats it! If you don't have your phone nearby, you may remotely start the app by sending an SMS with the text "androidlost register" to your mobile.
From their website, looks like you need to have had it pre-installed, or a sms capable setup.
Shame, i really want this guy to find his prime, dramas killing me ..........huh, oh, i mean, sorry for your loss
Gd luck
OP: You might to change the subject to 'lost prime' instead of 'stolen prime'.
Must feel terrible to realize you left your prime on the airplane. Almost as terrible as stealing a tablet only to realize it isn't an ipad.

Out of bandwidth. Someone else host it as well please? Dropbox maybe?
this works on my rooted gt n7000
asks me for permission I deny and bam it works
on my non-rooted nexus 7
I followed the same directions and after logging in it asks me to update my version and that it's too old
do I need to be rooted for this to work ?
Can we get a modified app which will let us use external displays?
Amazing!! Thank god!
I am so happy, im sitting here watching sports center on my Tablet (Zenithink C93 ZTPad)
When I tried to use live TV feature with the App in google play it says that my device is not supported. This one works perfect on my 10" tablet.
now im really happy. because this is much nicer to watch on than my 4.5" phone screen.
The next thing I need to figure out is how I can watch the optimum app on the road. (not on my home router). They say to use VPN, I can see that working, however Id like a simpler option, if at all possible.
Anyone have any ideas?
Finally Cable vision releases it! Two years late...lol
Inserted 20ยข for the first three minutes
uh oh.... problem
So it works fine when u install and run it first time. once u close out of the app and restart it goes back to saying "not supported". Why is this? is there anything we can do to make this work. I think it might be VERY inconvienent to constantly uninstalling/reinstalling everytime i have to open and close this app.
any suggestions ppl?
EDIT:: Ok i didnt read thoroughly the first post. that i have to clear the data everytime. i guess that will have to do then. not the most inconveient scenario. i just wish optimum didnt have to be such a **** about it. they obviously have some sort of kickback from Apple because they have supported apple devices including ipad for years before the Android version was released.
and considering the EARLIEST android version of optimum app works fine with my tablet, it is obvious they are holding us back on purpose.

I want to resurrect this thread. I'm the one who posted the issue in the thread above, but I agree this deserves its own thread.
I've emailed back and forth to Pandora support, and they wash their hands of it, and told me to talk to LG. I'm of the opinion that if there were no native Wear support for Pandora, how does it work in the first place? It displays album art and allows you to pause, play and skip. The Pandora support monkey says they don't support Wear, period.
Sorry for any confusion, but as I mentioned before, we do not support Wear functionality. The card may be appearing due to the way LG identifies music playing on your phone. Since we have not yet created an implementation for Android Wear, there isn't anything we can change to fix this.
Again, I'd recommend reaching out to LG about this issue to see if there is anything they can do about the music card on their end.
Let me know how that conversation goes.

Wear simply pulls the image, text, and buttons from a notification. In the case of media playback, it pulls that functionality from the same place your lockscreen does to display the art and pause/next functionality. Music apps don't need to do anything to work with Wear. I feel like what they're saying is true... Because I've encountered this bug on a few other apps. I think it's a bug in the Wear software itself (or just bad code on the developer's part). I figured it might have something to do with media apps not releasing themselves from the system correctly so Wear doesn't realize the app has stopped and no longer wants to display track info.
You can change watch face or open Amazon prime music and Swype off to get rid of it. prime works as it should.

While it may be a case of evolving functionality, I think it's chickenshark of Pandora to simply dish it off on LG or Google. I would hope that they'd take some ownership in the matter, and contact LG themselves to see what might be done, or offer some workaround. They just told me to go pound sand.

Oh, that definitely sounds like Pandora to me. They're incredibly lazy. Look how many years it's taken them just to get playback controls in the ongoing notification.
Found a workaround in the other thread on this topic. If you press Pause on the Wear card, you can then swipe right to dismiss it.

Same with Sticher or TuneIn for me...
I have had this happen for Sticher and TuneIn as well. I placed the watch in "airplane mode" and the notification on the watch immediately went away. Turned off "airplane mode" on the watch and everything was normal.

Suddenly sending 'my location in SMS'

Twin Sprint stock LG G3's (wife and I) and both have spontaneously sent "my location" messages via SMS to a couple people when we most certainly DID NOT WANT TO DO THIS. I've searched and found nothing to stop (but plenty to enable) sending of location - it's been mostly in G+ (disabled), Hangouts (disabled), and settings (I use GPS and wifi, but no settings to stop or start auto-sending location).
If we ask "where are you?" in hangouts (gchat) it will prompt to share a location, but we just opt not to. The auto-sending via text is a problem though.
What do you think could be causing this and what is the solution, please?
EDIT: The main issue happened when I called my mothers land line and it sent a "my location" web link text to her cellphone. WTF would cause that??
Thanks!
What ROM/ software are you using? I have a feeling it may be the sprint software interfering. Also, what was the location link? Like g.co(google) or a sprint link or something else

The link that showed up is "My Location(accurate to 21 yards) http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&geocode=q=(and then lat/long coordinates)"
I'd like to stress this is NEW behavior. And hardly consistent. I'd love to root this phone, I have rooted several others I've had but got tired of managing my device to that degree.

Have you tried clearing data to all play services/google stuff? If your device is completely stock, then I would contact google right away.
