I'm an very disappointed to see this when I woke up today as well. It was like we got android news the minute it was released, wtf. Hopefully there is a decent alternative, I will be following this thread in hopes of a solution.

The B**T**DS! I've had that widget from my days with the G1 wanting a good alternative :..(
I am still using the G1.. and yes.. I loved this Widget too, was one of the best ones when idle. That and my comic reader app for daily stuff.
We need an alternative now. >.<
I found this is the closest to what we had with the buzz. Dippler, look for it in the app store.

I use the Mippin site daily and just went on and its closed Will have to check these alternatives.
I have been thru tons of android phones...... and after every flash this widget was one of the first apps I installed. I am truly sad its gone away... I would gladly have paid for this. I hope they change their mind.
Should email [email protected] with your desire to see it restored, even offer to pay for it like I did. Cause while the app they gave me is ok if you select the gaming feed.. its not the same as the widget. =/

I'm using gReader and subscribing to various feeds, very good app. Widget is available in the paid version.
Drippler is the best that I've found. It's got a widget & notifies you of new news. Try it out, I have the link on the previous page.

Ive been looking for a bit torrent app that doesn't require having it on my laptop or signing up with a login. What's everyone using? So far I'm thinking of buying the bittorrent client by new freedom apps its 4.99 so what's the best.
I would download movies and tv shows maybe some mp3 files mostly over wifi and hopefully doesn't seed from other users phones just servers. Cause I don't want my phone getting seeded..... Any ideas ?

Anyone used AndTor?
Swarm is the best BT client on Android EVER, because it actually works well, and the developer is great.
I use Torrent-fu but you could always just get LogMeIn and have full access to your server and can add and remove torrents or really anything else that way. Works great.
Apologies... after reading the OP again this solution will not work for what you are trying to accomplish.
AndTorrent works great for me.

Do any of these torrent apps support magnet links and if so can you delete the tracker from the link before you start d/ling? Or better yet can you just add the links to the app manually? cause then i can delete the tracker for sure. Man this would be awesome.
I keep getting "error: null" on my torrents in swarm. never more than "downloading from 0 of 0 peers". Any help?

I had AT&T, just moved and it isn't available here yet. I've been wanting an android app for this for almost 3 years, when i first got UVerse. Plus now they announced the XBOX 360 can replace a set-top box. Too bad I am stuck with KableTown (comcast if you don't watch 30 rock)
Well its not on the market, so I think we will need some one with a captive to pull the apk out and post it, god I hope it works!

Looks like the Android app was released today, but I'm not seeing it on the Market. Is it filtering for AT&T wireless customers only?

Whats misleading is that you cant watch the shows you recorded but a set number of recordings they have approved......
Works great!
...but like others have said, its disappointing you can't watch what was recorded on the DVR. My guess is it has to do with licensing agreements, and we all know how idiotic that is.

It doesn't...are you referring to the fact that you have to allow installation of applications from unknown sources? That is totally different from root access.
No, my super user said fedes music app wants root access. Its in the su log too. Its a root thing,definatly

It would definitely be smart not to use that particular apk.
I like it quite a lot, works very smooth, grabs art from lastfm and scrobbles.
I don't think there is a way to skip to a certain part of a song.. I think dragging from left to right would be nice (like in mvideoplayer)
this might very well get me to switch from using poweramp. once a widget comes out in a update hopefully then i'll switch for sure
i've got it on my desire hd, and love it.
but i wish it had lock screen functionality
really good stuff on him for making it. i really like it
I love it
Very slick
I've spent the last few weeks trying to get album art for all of my music so it looked good but since i've been using this, i prefer the pictures it brings up in the background, i'm now looking for a way to get rid of the album art lol, can anyone help?

NEW
Flipboard for Android is now available from the official site (after register and waiting) and I have it for you guys now. It is little bit different from Samsung version and now it has update function also.
Here is latest version for Android generic
It says first after installation, not suitable for your phone bla bla bla, but just ignore it.
http://www.megashare.com/4293444
Really Great!
It's very nice and I* love the "paper scrolling"
Though I don't know which to use between Pulse, Currents, Taptu and Flipboard
Flipboard is still in early beta and looks and feel like an iphone app but I love the functions and "slide left to right to go back" function!
Pulse has been acting very weird lately and the scrolling is laggy, though I love the look of the app and the Pulse.me website!
Currents only supports RSS and take up a lot of space, but it caches the images which is really important! Though I don't like than you have pages that you scroll left or right and the bottom toolbar is way too small even on a 4.3 inch screen! it's not that good!
Taptu which I'm using right now is really good and probably the best of them! I really recommend!
Though I wish all had an easy to use "add to pocket" button instead of sharing to Pocket!
New version released today for Android
v.1.8.4. beta 2_74
Enjoy!
