NCAA March Madness App - HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G

Has anyone been able to find a working version for our tab on honeycomb? Works on my G2 gingerbread phone but not on my tablet?

From what I read there is no honeycomb support or ics and many of the listed phones it is supposed to work with it is not.

I have only been able to get video up by opening the streaming link via browser. However, it was too laggy even on a good WiFi connection to make it watchable. Not sure why. I tried it in 2 different browsers with no real luck.
The app is disappointing. Amount of compatible devices is really weak. I emailed them a few times and all they said was "There are too many Android devices and we can't test them all" which is really just a load of bull. Plenty of video apps out there that run on tablets, phones, etc. without issue.
Too bad considering the Flyer is a great size screen for streaming that type of stuff.

hate to say it but the stream works well on my iphone.... yuck. atleast I was able to get a free account

It streams great from my phone ( T-Mobile G2) but I can't place it on my desk comfortably
This sucks, my tablet has better specs than my phone UGH

Anyone else dissatisfied with the YouTube app?

I've noticed that the YouTube app on this device has some pretty bad lag so far. Like slightly worse even than my POS Samsung Moment. Scrolling while videos are playing cause really bad stutters and slowdowns. YouTube works fantastically in the browser but the standalone app seems lacking.

Really ? No problems here I prefer it over my iPhone YouTube app
If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d
It's only ever bad for me when scrolling between comments and such during the video, and it's really not too bad, but it is the one instance where I feel the phone is a bit slower than it should be.

So far it has been awesome. Maybe your over analysing.

I probably am over analyzing it, and the slowdown I see is probably just a compatibility issue that I'm sure will get resolved. Regardless, here's a video showing the slowdown I'm referring to.

This thing always stops playing video. This version and the latest version from the market. I will just stop with "An error has occurred touch he to restart" or something like that. Pisses me off to no avail!
I used to have that same problem, mostly just over 3g though. I know some people can't get it to play over wifi or 4g. Yoboii23's post about retrieving msl to speed up internet fixed the problem I had.

Used to not have a problem with it and would run smoothly with my airwave..last few days its been lagging during playback and buffering..I have to update my prl for it to run smooth again..I feel like I'm updating my prl everyday..I'm trying to get another phone bit I've exchanged my 3d twice already and don't know if they will do it again..I swear my store.got a bad bunch..I love the phone besides some of the network issues I've been having
My problems for the app would be that it only works sometimes & only on 4G & not on 3G or WiFi . Which is weird because it used to work before like a week ago .

Games on Honeycomb

Before I changed to Honeycomb I bought Asphalt6 Nova2. Both games now don't work with honeycomb. Any solutions?
Have you tried other games?
Which ones are working and which don't ?

Are you able to side load them? Build.prop edits may help. Also curious if order and chaos works after upgrade. If not it will be like HTC gave me a nice new car but took a dump on the drivers seat

LOL! awesome metaphor. HTC isn't giving Honeycomb just yet. Maybe by the time the do release the official version, they will get these games to work. Also, the Devs here seem to be great at detailing your new ride. Give them time and I am sure they will get the poop out and hang a pine scented air freshener.
Haha fair enough. I bet his problem could be fixed by changing build.prop though

Since the Flyer is not on the Gameloft supported devices list one has to make sure to buy games compatible with the Flyer's US cousin Evo View 4G. Asphalt 6 HD 3.01 works great on the Flyer under HC, Nova 2 FC's after the video introduction unfortunately.
Well when you goto gamelofts website on your device it shows it as the evo view and shows you a list of games that are compatable with "your" device....
That said I don't think this is HTC's fault... see my rant about gameloft here

Ice Stream

Just came across this app. Not perfect, yet an amazing streaming app for movies, tv shows, etc. Worth checking out
Old app no longer works. Updates can be found here. Not perfect, allot of links don't work. Most recents do

Since finding the app I have watched 3 movies and 3 episodes of dexter from the most recent serries. I am using the free trail of v player as it appears to support the most formats. Will likely pay the $5 for full version if I do not find a better replacement. Some streams don't work, some are choppy, but all in all the amount of content is amazing.
Maybe there are better options out there that do the same, but for me this has quickly become my favorite must have app
Anyone know what happened to the app for the View in the market? I upgraded to HC, then back to GB and during that time it vanished! Can anyone provide the apk? Thanks

I think they removed it from the market for piracy reasons. It reads its info from icefilms. I love that site between that one and mrbrownee70 I don't need cable TV. Since most of the links are megavideo links you can just use megastream and click the link from the browser on the main site and it will stream the video for you.

I've been using this with several different media players over the past few days. When I launch it, it plays the 1st video with no problem. If the 1st video is interrupted or finishes and I move on to a second, it always says the video file cannot be played. I figured out that if I toggle the wifi off and back on again that it will play the next file on a consistent basis.
Does this make any kind of sense as to why this is necessary?
When it's working properly the app is awesome.
It is a bit tempermental. Part of the issues comes from problems with megaupload

Most links are gone. There is some stuff left but it is diminished greatly. Still nice to have and I am sure over time it will repopulate, but mu being closed down was a gigantic hit. It is also a scary foreshadow of things to come.

I see there are fewer links... but none of them seem to load with the app anymore, so I assume the app was limited to accessing MU only?
not certain and I do nto have my flyer on me at the moment. take a look at mobilevids.org though.

I loved this but gave up on It when I noticed nothing was working. But today I decided to Google why and found this this. While there aren't nearly as many movies/shows/ect like there was when I first discovered the application, I'm pleasantly surprised on the improved functionality and smoothness of how everything plays. Also when loading a link up. It would sometimes take over a minute before it would begin, now its just a few seconds.
Thank you for this.

This is the debate that never ends, but my two cents: Honeycomb is great on the Flyer. You won't notice the loss of the capacitive buttons, and the on screen buttons will soon seem natural.
Plus, the ability to use the pen in any application is great, as is the superior handling of bluetooth keyboards (if you ever find yourself using one).
I'm 100% pro Honeycomb on the Flyer.
How do you plan to use it? For games honeycomb status bar don't go away. Many have complained of accidentally touching it during game play and losing their work. Also, if you use kindle and/or nook app, the honeycomb bar also don't go way. Therefore, you lose screen restate. In other words, if you need the maximum amount of space DON'T UPGRADE TO HONEYCOMB

I upgraded, and found I missed the phone ability. I'm now running leeDroid's HC and am a happy camper again. The loss of BT phone isn't a huge deal for me, as I only plan to use the phone part while traveling overseas and speakerphone is fine.
But aside from the phone, HC is a thing of beauty on the Flyer.
Ill upgrade when more apps are HC/ICS friendly. I use the Flyer for movies and occasionally for notes. Currently HBOGO's lack of compatibility is keeping me from upgrading.

I've found a few apps that hide, for lack of a better term, from me in the Market. Most seem to have been uploaded here, so they don't stay hidden long. But it can be a little annoying. Fortunately, since we can download from here directly onto the phone memory, it's only 1 additional hoop to jump through.

Does anybody use their slingplayer with the note? Does it work well? How about using with directv ? Also what app works better with the note? The phone or tablet slingplayer androod app?

Are threre any video quality diffrence between the two apps phone/tablet versions?
I mostly want to use this for the dvr shows not so much live tv. I want the tablet app if it has better video quality but not controls for dvr seems like a deal breaker.Is the phone app video quality just as good? I want to make sure before I put down $300+ and $30 for the app.
Thank you guys for your responses

I just got the slingbox pro hd and its okay! All the features and function is there but the video quality is okay. I get the same choppy quality in sd and hd. I have it hooked thru component with digital audio and optimum online boost 30 down 8 up in nyc. I'm happy with the box and hope maybe ICS will make the video quality better along with netflix.

I'm using Slingbox-Pro for 7 years and never had any problem with the Tilt II and now I'm using it on my Verizon Samsung Galaxy " Tablet using Android and don't have any problem either.
When I try to use it on the new samsung focus S, The windows phone reqired that you must change the slingbox pro to slingbox pro-HD. I did that, spent $250 for the slingbox pro-hd, it works for 3 months then the power supply input on the pro-hd burned up. Now I switched back to the Slingbox pro and still working good with my android tablet but will not work on the windows phone. I think the windows phone SUCK !!!.I'll switch to the Samsung Galaxy Note as soon it come out. Stay away from windows phones. Regars,
