You could try and use this. I used this when I want to check out google videos. It has the same problem as what you're having.

Tried OTA Rootkeeper with a Touchpad with Cyanogenmod 9. No go. Also tried renaming the Superuser.apk as suggested in another thread. Also no go. Hoping someone posts a modified .apk soon. This would be nice to have working.

Use supersu and disable root
It's in the market

Nothing. Twc app must check some file somewhere

Did you reboot?
Try renaming the su binary
It's in /system/bin and /system/bin
Or possibly rename busybox as well
I don't have the app
Edit: did you wipe data on the twc app? I'm pretty sure once it detects your rooted once it will prevent it until its wiped
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2

Yes I did both. Did it work for you?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2

Simple, my 17 year old figured it out. Rename super user.apk, to anything else. Reboot. Wipe data in the twc app. Worked for me. All other root apps still work fine too.
Now, how does app know if I'm on my home network? Why not at my office on office wifi network? Yes,I have time warner internet, but what if I was on another provider, would the app still detect my TV cable box and how?

That's essentially what the application above does. I think the recommendation to wipe the app's data is what helped too.

In the menu of the app you can go to xda threads. There's a a way to install using root explorer that's what I did. I was getting the same error

like it asks you to sync your account with google (kind of redundant if you already have your phone synced)

Can't download from the Android Market website (Unnamed 2.1.1)

****FIXED*****
Downloads from the Android Market website (https://market.android.com/) never started. Anyone having this problem? It works on my HP Touchpad, but it doesnt work on my S2. Currently running Unnamed 2.1.1. It worked on Unnamed 1.3.2 though. Please help me fix it?
Anyone using Unnamed 2.1.1 please go to https://market.android.com/ and try to download any apps to your SGH-I777, and let me know if it works please.
Why not just use the market app? Guess i've never tried via the browser.

Time Warner Cable (TWC) app for ICS and LiveTV Root workaround

Found this thread on xda's "Droid RAZR General" forum that mentions conflicting results with a workaround for the TWC app preventing the livetv feature if you have root.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604411
Just want to point out that on my AT&T NOTE (Seraphim First Flight ROM) renaming the /system/app/Superuser.apk then clearing the TWC app from memory was successful. Was then able to use the TWC Live TV feature.
A script to do this automatically is probably warranted but I'm sure some of the great minds here on xda will beat me to it !
Worked fine for me on DAGr8 alpha II, no moding needed
Just wonder if any way to get live TV working when off my home wifi network.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Anyone tried "hide my root" for this? I can't test it since I don't live in a TWC services area.
Cheers

So I downloaded it, went to install and it won't let me click install, I can only click cancel?!? Install doesn't highlight or respond. I've had this happen with random apps off the amazon appstore as well. Wtf?

What do you mean? I have the same model of phone as you and Google talk works fine over 3G/4G/LTE no problem..
Could this be something that AT&T is doing? I am on Rogers in Canada...
He means video chat over WiFi requirement. If you're rooted you just need to edit a file with sqeditor.

Doh, My bad.
I will look around for sqeditor too.. video chat would be something I would also likely want to enable..
thanks for the info!
edit: instead of the Gui SQLite Editor, I chose to isntall sqlite3 since it was missing for some reason.. (guessing that not all builds get it).. anyhow there is an app in the ap store called 'sqlite isntaller for root'.. once installed I just did the following through terminal emulator.. I guess I could have done it through adb as well...
Code:
$ su
# sqlite3 /data/data/com.google.android.*gsf/databases/gservices.db "insert into overrides (name, value) values ('gtalk_vc_wifi_only', 'false')";
# reboot
Great info here.. very glad I remembered about this site and came back now that I have an Android device I actually use..

[App] Face Unlock for TW 4.0.4

As we all notice with the new exciting 4.0.4 release for the SGT-10.1, Face unlock is not available for unlocking the tab!
I have taken the liberty to modify the ICS-04292012-gapps to include Facelock.apk without all the rest of the gapps. So BIG THANKS to the CM team for the zip and the components outside of the facelock.apk. The facelock.apk came from my SGS3 and works perfect on my tab.
Instructions:
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY PROBLEMS THAT MIGHT OCCUR FROM FLASHING THIS! BY DOWNLOADING AND INSTALLING, YOU THE USER ABSOLVE ME FROM ANY DAMAGES THAT MIGHT INCUR FROM YOU INSTALLING!!
1: MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP!
2: DID YOU MAKE A BACKUP?
3: ARE YOU SURE YOU MADE A BACKUP!
4: Download the zip http://www.mediafire.com/?pps4d43jmpoyjc4
5: Flash with CWM
6: Reboot
7: Check settings>security>screen lock
This has been tested only on the P7510. Once more people download and report back, I can say if it works with other variants of the 10.1 series.
Confirm working by RavenY2K3 that it works on P7500. He had to clear extra space on the /system partition to have it running.
Man, thanx for it!
Working on my P7510!

Scratch that, I delved a little into the system and it appears the amount of space in the ROM partition wasn't enough, it didn't give any errors on flashing to say there wasn't enough but I moved a few things around manually and reflashed the file....

What's needed is to get someone with a 7500 who flashed with PC Odin to see if they have had the same issue I just had, I did it with the mobile version and those people who did the same have found that the hidden.img didn't flash, so some apps weren't available after flashing.

If you are rooted, use a program like Titanium Backup in the market to remove any useless apps, need to clear at least 25 MB.

I removed like GMail, Maps, StreetView, YouTube, Books, Movies. And just re-downloaded from the Play Store, because it puts it in /data/apps.
This works great on Tasks ICS. I removed a few useless apps with titanium backup and it works great!
