Working Live TV on TWC app? - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone been able to get live TV to work using the Time Warner cable app, or any modded version or with any other mods (e.g. build.prop edits) for the past few months on a rooted Galaxy Tab 10.1? I've tried on CM10 and CM10.1 but it crashes immediately after loading the live TV function.

It works for me. I vaguely recall having to do something funky to make it work, maybe installing an older version of the TWC app, but it was 6 months ago so I don't exactly remember what I did. I think the solution I found was described in the CM10.1 nightly thread, try searching there.

Thanks. Unfortunately a search of time Warner and twc didn't get me anythung in the entire GT10.1 forum. Can you tell me the version of the TWC app you're using that works?

My Galaxy Tab 10.1 is running V2.6#36 of the TWC app. I believe the most current version is V3.3.1#57 (at least, that is what's running on my phone).
I've been doing some googling, and I'm starting to remember more details. I believe that the issue was not with CM10.1 per se, it was with running TWC TV on a rooted device. This link has the APK that I think I used? The whole thread is worth reviewing, but from what I remember, all I did was install the APK I found and it worked without any other modifications.

I've been getting a force close on whatever version I try. Been searching for a solution to that non stop. Didn't start until I flashed jb.

Hi, I recently got TWC and discovered this app. I am with Sprint however, and I am displeased that Verizon users get extra benefits. Maybe this has been explored but has anyone done any more work on this app? Is there anyway to "trick" the app into believing we are Verizon customers or better yet, that I am on my home network so I have unlimited use of the app?? Just asking.

No sound since update?
I have just purchased the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 On Sunday, I got the TWC app and everything worked fine. On Monday night, the app updated and since then no sound.
I tried d/l the previous version of the app referenced in this thread, but when I try to open it, it won't unless I upgrade. I don't want to!
Any ideas how to get the sound to work?

Same problem here,. I'm looking for a work around for the "you must upgrade" so i can install the old version of twc app. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!...... Thank you very much!

Supposed Flash 10.1

These guys are reporting success installing this to get Flash 10.1 on Galaxy S devices running Eclair. I didn't have any such luck with our Fascinate, but give it a shot and see what happens for you. Root not needed.

Fine, I'll make a video for proof. It isn't FULL 10.1 support but it has more support than the 3.0 lite.

what does it say when you go to http://www.whatismyflash.com/
if it doesn't say 10.1 then you don't have it. Just because it installed doesn't mean it works.
It's the 9.1 that ships on the phone.

Hey guys, I am the author of the post at robotbriefs.com. Unfortunately, I don't have any other Galaxy S phones to test with beyond the Epic 4G. My source for the article was addictivetips .com. I have not had problems with info I had gotten from them in the past, so I felt safe in reposting the article on flash for the Galaxy S.
In my quick testing, I only verified a few flash games that seemed to work fine, except for the games expecting mouse support. I posted the article, then moved on to the next thing. I definitely should have tested more carefully, but it was early AM and clearly I wasn't running on my full level of caffeine.
For what it's worth, I didn't think to check the version on whatsmyflash.com. Upon checking that this morning, it is, in fact, v9.1.22. I am going to update the article today.
I posted a comment under the article on the site apologizing for getting anyone's hopes up unnecessarily. I offer the same apology here. Bad robot.
We're obviously a new and upcoming Android-focused site. I absolutely appreciate everyone that stopped by because of the link above. Please stop back by when you have a moment. We reference the XDA Forums regularly and the great things that come out of here.

OK it may NOT say 10.1 BUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
BUT TRIPLE undERLiNEZ
It adds MORE support than the Fash Lite 3.0 that comes with the phone.
It is halfway between Flash Lite 3.0 and Flash 10.1. The only thing missing are the special functions between 10.1 and FroYo.

[Q] Netflix App

hi all I was just curious if anyone knows if the new Netflix app is working on the Thunderbolt or not. I assume it would but the thunderbolt is not listed on the netflix web site as a supported phone for this app, even though 3 other HTC phones are listed and are older tech than the Thunderbolt. I tried to install it but they want me to start an account with them first and I'm not opening a Netflix account unless I know for sure this will work on My thunderbolt. I'd appreciate any information anyone has on this,.. thanks!!
there are hacked netflix APKs out there that work on the thunderbolt
I thought it was only working for cm7?

The Netflix app will not work with any ROMs based off the official Thunderbolt RUUs as of now.
I was so mad when my boyfriend's Incredible would stream Netflix, and my newer Thunderbolt WON'T. He doesn't even use his phone. He fixed it so he can use wireless tethering..and uses his ipod touch! That's what made me so pissed off about it. I actually want to be able to watch Netflix on mine! Maybe one day soon =(
yeah This fairly well annoys me as well.. I purposefully bought the highest end phone I could find with the latest technology and it can't run the netflix app while the older models can,.. sounds kinda backasswards to me... really bugs me
Would love to have this working. Til then I guess I'll just have to use it on my DX

If you are rooted you can trick the app into thinking you are using one of the phones that are listed. I think i read about the trick on android central if i find the link i will post it.

Don't think so, so far its only working if your running CM7 I believe.
Has anyone on here used CM7? I loaded it one day and nothing really worked on it. I couldn't get on the internet or anything... sounds like to a waste to run CM7 just to use netflix
Netflix does work on cm7 and will be supported on the thunderbolt soon. The reason why it wasn't initially is because the phone is new and Netflix didn't have time to test it on our devices. Just give it some time and you all will be rewarded.

My understanding is that they are waiting til after the Revolution comes out to activate it for LTE phones. Its one of the selling points of the Revolution so it will probably be exclusive to that for a month or so. Just speculating though.

wifi tether help

Hi guys,
Im trying to help a friend, He has the Verizon Samsung Fascinate, the phone is rooted, has super user. I Dl'd and installed the Android wifi tether 2.07apk from the google dev site. started up the app. started tether without issue, looked on my Toshiba Thrive Tablet, found the android tether wifi, tried to connect and message pops up on my tablet stating something about adhoc is not supported.
I have a Droid Incredible running Nil's sense 3.5 rom and have the same android tether app, I can start up tethering, turn tethering on, connect and surf the web on my tablet, with no mention of the adhoc compatibility thing.
Im not up on Samsung devices, I have always had HTC phones. So im not sure if this a Samsung issue or what.
I compared his tether app settings to mine and both are the same.
Im at a loss here and could really use some advice about how to fix the issue.
Thanks
Hitch
Try downloading the newer version 3 beta 6 from here http://code.google.com/p/android-wi...tail?name=wifi_tether_v3_1-beta6.apk&can=2&q=
Be sure to go into settings and change device-profile to samsung fascinate.
It may work with that version...

Thanks for moving the thread, I had posted another topic in the Q&A.
The good news is 96 people have read the post, the bad news is not one person posted any ideas, This usually happens when you cannot post in the rooted section.
Still hoping someone has some ideas to help out.
Hitch
Which rom is installed? Is it just stock Touchwiz with root? I ask because if your friend is willing to try CM7, the built-in tethering works beautifully.

its called Evil Fascinate from the samsung galaxy forums. I told him he needs to start getting his roms from here, he just rooted for the first and has a lot to learn.
I know he likes roms that are really themed, If you any suggestions for a stable, themed rom that has tether baked in I will flash it for him and see if he likes it.
Thanks

can't he just download opengarden tether or barnicle tether from market or am I missing something?

I have tried barnicle, but We get the same message when trying to connect from our tablet to the phone (AdHoc is not supported) and it wont connect, no matter what tether app I try I get the AdHoc not supported message.
I dont get this message when tethering my tablet to my Droid Incredible.
Thats why I was thinking it had to do with Samsung firmware, but I really have no idea and Im hoping that you Samsung guys can get my friend fixed up.
An easier question might be "what tether app do you use on your Fascinate"
Hitch
I use open garden, but I have never tried tethering to a tablet...only pc's.
Meh, easy fix for the ad-hoc thing. In wifi tether (I use pre10, 6 should work) go to settings, set your device profile to Google NexusOne and your setup method to Netd (master) and it will run in infrastructure mode and run fine. Tablets will connect and receive internet.

Order & Chaos 1.0.8 not working

Anyone else playing this game have problems with the update last night? The game wanted to update and it sent me to gameloft's site to download the new apk which installed fine but the game data will not download. I'm getting the following message.
"A problem occurred and the download could not be completed successfully. do you want to restart the download? An unstable network may cause problems when downloading."
Have the same problem, but with LG Optimus Black version (Motorola Droid X version). Also, with Motorola Xoom version.
Maybe they are having server-side problems...?
looks like this problem is on more than just this phone. Looks like the app can't see where the data directory goes and that it can't created it.
The update work fine on my a500 so i copied the game data directory over to the phone but it still has the same error.

NFC HowTo

Can someone point me to a tutorial on how to use NFC on my note? I thought I was trying something simple by attempting to share a photo from my note to another but I am apparently just not Getting It Right(tm).
I'm running a rooted stock OS with cruft disabled/removed. NFC transfers are enabled on both devices and they both indicate 'ready to transmit app content'. Now what?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QiSzC1-TCz8&feature=youtube_gdata_player
always tried to figure out how to use the NFC lol
Never used it ....
I guess I'd better read up ....g

At this point it would take to long to transfer 8 mp photos via nfc. The transfer rate is just not even close

Interesting, I never looked into the detailed specs of what NFC was capable of. Wi-Fi direct transfers work well enough, but are disruptive to general Wi-Fi use. I guess I'll stick with that.
Ugh. I used NFC daily while on stock ICS. Installed cm10 and now NFC will not turn on. Tried flashing the "fox" file from that article from April 2012. I was hoping this thread would give me a new light. I suppose it is back to stock ICS.

I tried it today, I have JB, other phone had ICS, the only time it work is when the other phone got a text message while we were trying it. He uses gosms, my phone came up with a play store link for gosms. It doesn't seem to work across different platforms. Probably would work between two phones using the same platform. It also says it relies on bluetooth.

NFC will not fully check on in the wireless settings. The Samsung tectile app says NFC not turned on and will not let me read any tiles. I am going to try a clean install of cm10 and not do a Google restore of app and settings. Maybe this will work for me
