Fix to IMDB app (and possibly others) - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Most, if not all people who downloaded the IMDB app for the galaxy note are experiencing the same problem: It won't load! So, I emailed IMDB and got a fix! Here it is:
Check the SETTINGS for the phone, not the IMDB app. When you go to LANGUAGE AND KEYBOARD it will show ENGLISH for the language but when you click on SELECT LANGUAGE it you'll see that DEUTSCH is selected.Select ENGLISH.
It's probably best to do this regardless incase the same problem occurs with other apps

This is amazing. Thank you so much for the heads up. No more whining about lack of flash. Skyfire does it all.
edit - even bbc iplayer works. Dr Who on the x10 mini, anywhere in the world (proxies permitting).

Anyone else having trouble installing this?
when i look at the market i dont find it, and when i scan the QR code from skyfire homepage i dont find it either.
Also tried downloading the APK file from my phone but it fails telling me that the format is not supported in my phone.
Currently using a unrooted mini pro with SE default stock rom due im afraid of the stability of the aviable roms. (Absoulutly need a working and non-rebooting phone for my work.)
hi here is the apk cheers chris

You can watch live streaming !!!!!
Hi,
thanks for the app !
With this app, you can watch live streaming !
Yestersay, i have saw San Antonio - Memphis on streaming with my phone ( in 3G ) !
If you want to test :
go on myp2p or http://www.rojadirecta.es/.
For example, go to : http://www.rojadirecta.es/goto/play....gd/BZzvNC&autostart=true&stretching=exactfit.
On this page, click on Video ( ( down bar of skyfire ) the page may is white as if it's not loaded ).
Wait, and click on video who appears.
Watch your match
You may need video licence for that work, but the licence is free for 3 day.
It's time to test !
PS: If skyfire work only for google reach; click on icon half android / half screen of computer ( at right of the icon who open all tab ) and choose android.
Try again
Sorry for my bad English !
Hum, I tried this yesterday but gave up cuz on my mini pro the favorites button caused a FC, but since it appears to be able to playback video, I might just have to make this one my default browser

To have the favourites button work you need the stock browser (the stock one in the custom roms work as well) installed as well as it uses that somehow for your favourites and history etc

Ah ok, I see my deleting of the default browser (had no use for it) came back to bite me in the ass, cheers for the clear up
EDIT: Yeah, readding the default browser fixed it, cheers fellas.
Any way to turn the screen off during playback? I use some flash streaming audio, so dont need to see anything, and it eats battery. Also has anyone worked out how to tick the parental lock option in bbc iplayer?

did this, but anytime i open a video, it still says i have 3 days left on my license
Did you definitely install skyfire 3 first and accept the terms and conditions before uninstalling it and then install 4?

No polaris/flipboard for our S3?

As above, is there no flipboard for our s3? And polaris doesn't seem accessible, only able to view documents using the viewer...?
Same here. Where did you purchase your GSIII? Mine is from t-mobile Germany.
Perhaps flipboard is only available to UK residents at this time???

I bought mine at MediaMarkt SIM free and also don't have Polaris & Flipboard.
I also don't have video maker! I tried importing it from s2 and galaxy note but it didn't work....
Anyone?

I'm in Dublin, Ireland. Got my Galaxy S3 with Three Ireland and it does in fact have Flipboard.
Flip board is probably an English-speaking region exclusive. I remember it used to be only available in the US AppStore for a long time on iOS.

same here. have neither of them on my singapore set.
any one with Video Maker included?
Sharing Videos require Video maker to make them smaller.... i tried the ones in the market but they suck...
Hmmm I guess Flipboard is exclusive to UK at the moment now? I just installed the extracted APK from the Flipboard thread, works but I can sense some slight choppiness at times.
Polaris is totally missing from my phone..
Missing good apps and bundled with crap bloatware from the carrier :x

Can you please tell me your ROM info from Settings > About
Is it just me or is Flipboard full of US content and hardly anything UK related, especially on the sport side?
In spanish manual figures that flipboard is available, but when you search for it in the phone, it isn't available...
Just as a tip, I took Polaris from a Galaxy S 2 ROM, works beautifully.
you can download flipboard in the application "more services"
flipboard is up on samsung apps.
Australian stock - flipboard installed by default but no Polaris office full version.
It seems like AU stock only as Polaris viewer and when you use it to open a doc it says to download full version for free from "more services" but upon searching the more services, I could not find it.
Anyone manage to get Polaris office full version installed by any means?
Same here, it is viewer only, which states that it is possible to get a full one, but it is nowhere to be found...<!

I have been using Songza on my iPhone 4 in the US but now it's not available in Google Play in my region even though it's a free app. Can anyone share the apk or point me to a site that allows me to download it? Thanks.

Use google for searching the APK, just search for "songza apk", the first one to appear is the apk4 .us site, donwload it and try to use it. If it says that you are outside the US, assuming you are rooted, just download Orbot, a Tor's Client. I live in Argentina and like many others, can't use Songza or Pandora, but this little app do the trick. Search it on the Play Store.
Once you launch it for the first time it ask you for rooted permissions, then it ask you for the apps that will go trhough Orbot, click the "Select Apps.." button, wait for the list of apps installed on your phone and then check Songza, go back and when it shows you the Large button press for 2 seconds, it begins to connect to the Tor network, once it goes Green.....ALELLUYA!!!!!
Luanch again Songza and there you go listening for your favorites tunes!!!!
Remember to go through the Options in Orbot for uncheck the "Start with the system" option.
By the way, with that little bastard of Orbot, you can make any app "shows" you on the US, like I said before, I live in Argentina, and besides Songza and Pandora, I use Last.fm, Hulu, Rdio, and so on...
Good luck!

[Q] Does anyone has an issue with hardware keyboard and Chrome?

I have an issue with hardware keyboard and Google Chrome browser. When I typed in English on Chrome it's working fine, but when I'm switching to another language (in my case is Thai), I cannot type anything on Chrome.
I searched everywhere and submitted this issue to Google Chrome support, but I've got nothing.
Does anyone got this issue like me? It would be great if you have a resolved for this. It is very annoying.

"Listen to" voice command not working anymore

Yesterday I was trying to showoff the features of our phone to a friend and decided to demo the listen to command, but it didn't launch a song it just did a google search.
I have my langauge set to English (US). I cleared the Google Search application data.
Other voice actions work, likes "send text", "navigate to", "call", pizza, "how old is Barak Obama". For some reason "Listen to" just does a google search.
Anybody else experiencing this?

Doesn't work anymore for my Sprint Galaxy Nexus as well. I looked at the reviews in the Play Store and people are saying the same thing. Just last night I tried to demo it showing off to a friend to no avail. I lost hella cool points just then. Looks like I'll have to charge it to the goog.
Has anybody found a solution to this problem?
Sent from my SGH-I317M using xda app-developers app
Looks like this is working now. But the "listen to" playlist name is still not working.
Also, certain songs don't play. It's weird.
