I've just managed to find a beebplayer apk. & installed it without issues but I can't seem to get the live streaming to work.
Would I be right in guessing this is because the app is no longer getting development support or is it because I'm on Orange? I just read on the internet beebplayer didn't work streaming on Orange. But that can't be right can it?

Ive not been able to have it working for a while... BBC are working on there own offical app. But no idea when its out.
No, it doesn't and is no longer developed.
I guess the Beeb put the pressure on.
iPlayer is supposed to be coming, many comments about it being in time for the world cup, but that hasn't happened.

Anyone know of a way to take advantage of caching? I'd like to store my whole region for off-line (SDcard) use.

how do we see 3d buildings or suppose to be automatic if available?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
3d buildings are automatic if they are available. You just have to zoom in real far. I didn't see them on the Boston map but they are on the New York map.

Is anyone with Desire Z able to get the update? Google Maps was preinstalled, so it doesn't auto-update or show in the Market app. Also, when I try to search it on Market, I can't find it.
I updated my desire z today using mobile data. The app was in the new app store showing the update tab. Working great and faster than before, even while using on mobile data.
Any lone know if there is a way to precache maps as a whole. Id like to get my whoe county but it only seems to cache what i look at at the time.

Go to androidpolice.com, find maps post on front page, scan QR code.
(Not affiliated with androidpolice in any way. I just happened to find out about the new Maps over there first and the QR worked for me...)
Thanks! Tried that, and also on other websites with barcode for Google Maps, but I always get the message (after I go to the link) - "The requested item could not be found".
I wonder why Google Maps is forbidden from installing to my Desire Z, or even showing up in Market?
APK that works on my phone, since there's no other way to install Google Maps, is in this thread:

Hello,
I have been looking around, but cant seem to find the answer to my seemingly unique situation.
I have rooted my evo using the Unrevoked Forever / ClockworkMod method.
In these instructions, it said to remove any sync software such as the htc sync or doubletwist.
I now want to be able to sync with iTunes, so what would be a good suggestion to do this? I liked the iPhone i had from work where when I synced, it would keep track of where i was in a podcast and go back to / start up from where i left off on the computer or on the device. This along with the management of my music would be great to have.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

TuneSync, in Market free version and paid version (worth $5 if you ask me)... But I'm pretty sure you're gonna get the "This belongs in Q&A section" from a few.

...expecting it
but with the all the rooting questions and such in here, I figure it may be a better place to ask.
The mod can move if it necessary.
If you're just looking for something that syncs, you may wanna try winamp. it pulls in tracks from your iTunes library, and has a ton of good functions. Plus, it syncs via wifi. I was looking for an iTunes sync, but when i came across it, i liked it better for the evo. Now, iTunes is relegated strictly to my iPod. Hope that helps.
I use isyncr.

Yep, it works. I've been using it for months now.
**Had no idea about WinAmp though. May try that one out. Thanks Uk!**
I use iTunes Agent and could not be happier with it. It loads all of my music in my iTunes library (including purchased songs) onto my Evo. Google iTunes Agent to find the download the program uses your computer and any music application on your phone. No root required.
Isyncr and album art grabber. It works wonderfully. I've been using it with my Evo since July
I'm using doubleTwist with AirSync (WiFi syncing add-on), works pretty well, and can access my music with the stock Sense player
I have heard Isyncr was good and iSyncher wifi, syncs wirelessly, if I am not mistaken.

+1 on this one.
iSyncer seems to work well, but it doesnt retain where in a podcast I am at when I pause and exit the application.
It also doesnt update the location I am at on the computer to the phone.
The podcasts are long that i listen to and would like to be able to stop it on my computer, sync, and then pick up on the phone in my car without having to fast forward to, or have to know, where i left off.
Can anyone access flash content on any BBC website using a rom based on sense 2.1 + 3.0. I have tried numerous but none of them work on my phone. All i get is a blank screen where the content should be?
Videos in BBC "most watched" all play fine for me - I assume they are Flash.

Pretty obvious I know, but I take it you are in the UK? BBC blocks content to non-UK IP addresses - I'm sure you know this already, but just in case...
Lol. Sorry I am in the UK. I can get it to work on old sense roms no problem with stock browser and dolphin but no go on the newer sense stuff.
It may be that the BBC is not recognising my location. But I don't even get a message about being in the UK. Frustrating!

Anyone have success?

Seems like a Samsung error.. ? This bug need addressed.

yea. same here, been trying all day
I know this has been an issue with facebook on other phones, can't speak for twitter. Apparently, if you add your current work info to your facebook account it'll fix it, but that's coming from a friend who had the issue on the evo 3d and it worked after she did that, so take this with a grain of salt. Good luck

Same issue here, cannot log into social hub.. but its OK FB apps is way better now, for twitter I always use tweetdeck.. any other advantages using S hub?
One solution I suggested in another forum that worked was to download the twitter and Facebook app from the market and login via those apps. Hope this works for some of you
I came to this forum hoping to find an answer for this issue and was so glad to see this thread and vindicate myself as being the issue. One would think that during the testing of the device on Sprint's network that they would have made sure that this actually worked before releasing it out in to the wild.
And hows pornhub on this device ?
Is it vivid, crisp... loading speed ?
This will be a huge game changer for my decision.

\Hello,
My parents were in the US for a while, so they bought me a Nexus 7.
They also bought one for each of them and theirs were activated while in america, so they have magazines, movies and books working when they got back.
For me the only thing working is Play Music but, since it works, made me wonder if it is possible to get movies/books/magazines working...
It has to be possible..
Have anyone done that already?
If so, how?
Thank you!
In the UK?

Music is still a grey area but should work, no problem with books or movies, magazines not so much.
I use a vpn for this and switch off the gps and location services......works 99% of the time.....im in ireland
How does it work out in terms of billing? Does it go through all right?

I use Zinio. It has a much better magazine selection and is available worldwide, I think. It does work in Canada.

I set up my nexus 7 this way, put irish credit card on it and got the play credit on my google account.
I was wondering the same thing i heardu can unlock them but u cant buy anything, atleast not in Canada.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium App
I also recommend Zinio. Usually have some good special on magazine subscriptions too.
I got the Books to work using a VPN. I was able to download a couple of free ones. Didn't try buying any but I presume it would work if you get the US Play Store working through a VPN.
Using DroidVPN and Market Enabler you can access the US Play Store, but without a US credit card you cannot purchase anything from movies/books/magazines/music (even if it's free!) So maybe if you can get a prepaid US credit card it will work but I'm not sure..
Great ideas.
Thank you, guys.
I used this method to buy stuff from Google Play: http://goo.gl/mHhY8
In short, use VPN to access the Google Play, either through the web or the app. I personally use Hide My Ass! and Super Free VPN to buy books and music.
Once I bought them I can access the contents without VPN.
