[Q] Directv Tablet App - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

This morning, Directv updated their app to mirror their iPad app. It is only compatible with tablets only. Since Note 2 is a hybrid, is there a way to download this via tricking system to show Note 2 as Tablet device. I'm currently rooted with Beans Build 9.

I have an NON TESTED theory;
Ask somone in galaxy tab forum to post their <build.prop> file. It includes the device name and build rev. Create backup of <build.prop> and in new one edit the file in text editor by long-pressing from root explorer and change necessary lines.
For specific lines to edit, head over to <Note II general thread> and look at the <google wallet> main post instructions. It shows how to get wallet working by tricking the NoteII into thinking it's a galaxy nexus. You don't need to download their file. That's for the nfc fix soley. Just use the part about <build.prop> editing as a reference for what lines need to change.

here ya go
directv.tablet.apk - 15.49 MB
but the app closes right away ( well after you login )
however i would imagine if your using PA or anything with a per app dpi editor you may get it to work

No problem.
If UI is too small for you, you can set dpi to 213 (nexus 7 dpi) and the UI is a littke bigger but looks off IMO

I'm rooted and it's working. Re Ipad 3: google Xcon, that will get it working on iPad.

The MOD described above requires a rooted device. So root has nothing to do with it. Follow directions closely. May help to detail the steps you have taken.

I downloaded framework and installed. I then installed busybox. Then I downloaded and flashed the xposed app settings. After flashing I was not able to find the posed app settings in under the modules tab.

I do not have Xposed App Settings in my app drawer. I have tried flashing Xposed App Settings 3 times with TWRP
and still not showing up in my app drawer.
