New MagicJack app works! - TouchPad General

For those MagicJack users who have thus far been frustrated, there is a new app (Talk Free) which allows us to use our MJ accounts to make calls with our TPs. Play store has it.
Quality dependent on good wifi signal, as always. Audio receive and speech from early experience, very good. However, lots of echo experienced on the other end's transmit.
Also note, when the app is in opened on the device, mic will not work with other apps. App must be forced closed, as no exit exists for app presently. It's still beta, albeit a good start.
Neat to be able to make calls from the TP. Running ICS nightly fwiw.

The app does not come up for me in the playstore. I'll try googling it later.
Edit : I think that this is for the iPads, not for android.
Edit 2 : I get your device is not compatible error when searched for MagicJack in playstore.

That's what I'm running and the app works fine. Have you tried clearing the cache and do you have the latest gapps version?

I had been running the 903 nightly. I upgraded to 916. App still works here.
Can't imagine what causes the problem on your end.

Netflix Update Kills Video

I wouldn't advise updating the Netflix app. I did yesterday and now I only get audio and no video. I'm running CM7 beta. Can anyone using stock or another rom confirm if yours is working. I saw in the app market comments that others were having problems as well but haven't seen anything over here.
I have stock gingerbread and I don't have any video issues. Although I was getting like a fast forward audio/video thing when I started a movie. It corrected after I stopped and started it. I like it better because they fixed the orientation situation.

Well I guess it's a cm7 problem like the HBO to Go app. Damn, I love the rom but this needs to be fixed. Hopefully I can flash a backup to get it going again.
yup i had the same issues. i just re-installed a backup of 1.4.0 and it works fine again.
Well, I did a cwm restore from a backup I did 2 days ago. I opened netflix and gave me an error about my device being deactivated, I just clicked through the ok's and it logged me out. I logged back in and all was well. Also, after reviewing the bug reports on CM7, I came across an interesting fix that may work for plex, I'll post the link below in the hopes that it will help somebody.

No, I was just wondering since it can cause issues. But for me Edge works with and without it.
Edge EX is also working fine for me on CM9 Alpha 0.6. I didn't do anything special, it just worked.
*ETA: Which version of CM9 are you running? Version 0 and 0.5 had an issue with some games that has been fixed in 0.6
Whole pack is amazing so far. Goo is just amazing and fun same for osmosis and edge is a nail biter. Haven't tried the last on but assuming its half as good as the other three your in for a treat its also the biggest at 150 megs. They all load and play fine on cm9 6

my only issue is that i noticed it doesn't show up in the android market as being installed. however i was able to get to an 'update' option which then said 'you cannot update this app because you did not purchase it'. is there a way to install apps thru the marketplace when you've purchase them elsewhere (sounds ridiculous to me).
i had this happen when i wanted to update an app that i had paid for thru the market quite a long time ago and i ended up clearing the market cache and reinstalling the app with no problems. however, this doesn't fix the issue with these games.

You won't be able to update through the market right now. Osmos and Edge have in app prompts built in to check for updates and allow you to download them. Updates for the other two will be posted to your humble bundle download url and they are working on making a Humble app that does install through the market and checks for updates
http://humble.assistly.com/customer/portal/articles/332858-humble-bundle-for-android-faq
Q: How will my Humble Bundle for Android games be updated? A: If there are any updates to the games, we will post them to your download page. There will be a timestamp, letting you know when the newest version was posted.
Also, the latest builds of EDGE and Osmos will have an in-app update feature -- if they notice that Humble Bundle has a new build, it will show a dialog box asking if you'd like to update. We're hoping to work with the developers to have this feature added to the other games.
Finally, we're beta testing a Humble Bundle Android app that will organize your Humble Bundle for Android games, and alert you when a new version is available. We'll be sure to let you know when the app goes live!

Short answer is go back to the same page you downloaded from and updates will be posted there.
If you want to check if there is and update you can check the game's Google market page. If an update is available, the update button will appear, but you won't be able to use it.
You can also check the Humble Bundle's Twitter feed as they have been posting there when updates are made available:
http://twitter.com/humble
Eventually, there will be a separate Humble Bundle app that checks all your Humble games for updates and downloads them if there are any, but that app is not out yet.

MLB At Bat '12 not compatible with the Rezound?

I tried to buy this app in the store and it says not compatible with my device? Why the hell not? This has me quite upset, I was hoping to listen to games while its slow at work. Grrrr......

Nope, shouldn't matter. I'm on ICS. Find the free version APK and sideload it, and then it gives you the option of logging into your MLB account to get the audio streams.

Thanks, I will have to learn how to do that for future games I guess, I'm at work typing on the phone right now so....
I have the free version on my phone, that one works. It's when I tried to upgrade that it won't.
Hey, it's a thread I have something meaningful to contribute to. I just got this working today. I have At Bat 12 Light, but I had to set lcd_density back to 320 to get it. Then I found I couldn't stream video. So I did some googling and learned how to spoof the phone model. See, MLB only allows video streaming on pre-approved devices. Rezound isn't, but galaxy nexus is. There are 4 (I think) build.prop entries that need to be changed. Unfortunately I can't find the link at the moment, but you shouldn't have too much trouble searching various keyword permutations.
Wait, is anyone able to buy the MLB at bat app that costs 14.99? This is the one I can't download because it says it's not compatible with the Rezound. The "lite" version isn't the problem...

So I have the At Bat Lite on my phone, when I try logging in to my MLB account it still tells me I need At Bat 12, which it won't let me do. What am I missing?

But you're using the free app and logging in with your MLB paid account right? The free app is compatible, the paid app (for those without paid MLB accounts) is not

So I just paid $20 for the annual subscription to MLB.com, do I also have to pay $$$ for the app to listen to games?
No....
If you paid and have a MLB account, you should be good to go.
I have the 24.95 sub which includes the video (but doesn't currently work on the Rezound, just the radio audio feeds work).
I downloaded the free "lite" version of MLB and just put in my log and pass and it works fine on unrooted stock GB.
To be sure that I wasn't losing any MLB access or features (outside of the live tv feed) I also put the "Lite" version on my Dinc (which does work with the Live video feeds) and it worked fine...
So you want the MLB lite app.
I personally went to the MLBTV website and subscribed there.... Got my log and pass and then downloaded the app from Google Play.

Thanks guys, this is what I did and it seems to have worked. It's obviously not an ICS problem since there are guys using it without trouble.
The ROM absolutely does matter. There are several apps that I cannot reload on CleanROM 4.2 from either pushing from the Play website or downloading in the Play store app. In the latter under "My Apps" it actually tells you it isn't compatible when click the app and go to its page.

[Q] New KitKat Hangouts

Has anyone attempted making the new Hangouts for MMS/SMS/Hangouts work on a VZW TW based ROM like CleanROM?
I can't even find a thread about people doing it in CM!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2507251
I'm looking to give that a shot and report back this week, if no one has.
Curious what else would be needed from 4.2/4.3/4/4 to make it work (since VRAMC3 is like 4.1.2).
Well, I tried it. I installed it normally. No hitches. Works just fine.
Haven't tried video chatting yet, which (as I understand) has issues on some devices, like the Moto X (needs a different library or something) but works fine on others.
I will report!

I have been using it since droid life posted it last week and it seems to work well enough. I stopped using it because I prefer to have individual notifications.
Hangouts just updated via the Play Store for me today and asked to take over SMS/MMS duties after installing.

Because video chatting DOES NOT work (I should update the original post here).

EDIT: My Hangouts only updated to 1.2.018. Won't update to the 2.0.x yet.

Yeah, when are they going to let individual hangout/conversations have different notification settings (other than ignoring notifications or not)?
It CAN'T be a hard feature to implement.
I'm keeping Handcent installed for now. But this thing won't update in the Play Store. Hoping to have a version where Video chat works, because I use that more htan phone calls.
Most of my friends (even iphones) have Hangouts now, and I just video call + turn off video + turn on 'handset' for sound (so it's basically a phone call).
WOrks well for a few friends I have that have 0 reception at their house but have wifi with good internet at home.
Google usually does staged roll-outs of updates for their apps. I'd think that by tomorrow you should be able to update to the latest version. Also, try going to Hangouts in the Play Store. I've seen sometimes where apps can be updated, but they don't show as being able to update from the all apps screen, but you can update it from the Play Store listing itself.

Are you on the stock-based 4.1.2? I wonder if I need 4.2 or 4.3 ROM going to make it happen.
I put that new Video lib .so file for the video chat. with OR without it, video calling seems to connect for a second, then stops working. I'll just wait for the official one, I do suppose!

Problem with Ayat

First of all, just so you know this a religious app, and I won't be discussing any religion on this thread so please don't
The app is supposed to download images and show them. but the problem is, when running MM I was able to use it perfectly but when upgrading to N after the splash screen the app shows a white screen.
Tried to downgrade to MM and use the app for a couple of house then upgraded to N and the same problem happens.
If anyone could help with this.
This sounds more like a problem with the app not working on N, so your best bet is to try and get in contact with the developers of the app and have them fix it.

So I think the problem is with Vulkan API;
I can't see why you went through the trouble of downgrading for that app while there are plenty of way better alternatives.
