[Q] Is Sprint TV going to have the superbowl? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am going to be stuck at work on superbowl Sunday. I do not currently have Sprint TV installed and was wondering if someone who does can check to see if they are going to be showing the game on Sunday. I know the app pretty much sux, but still if I can see any of the game it would be great. Note: I work in a dungeon so its not possible to bring in a TV. For whatever reason I get good cell coverage, but TV signals do not penetrate the walls.

It probably won't since Sprint lost the NFL license to Verizon. But if you have access to a PC or if the phone will stream it properly, you can check out ATDHE for free online streams. I'm sure there will be Superbowl streams.

not a chance

Netflix

Anyone know of possible streaming of netflix to the EVO? Would definitely make this the best device ever...
I work for AT&T Business and I was on a call with a senior director (I googled his name)of Netflix Inc and he told me that the iPhone and Android platforms will get a Netflix app this summer.
Its coming soon.

I would be so happy if I could get netflix, and if it went to HD when i was on wifi or 4g, and if it could output through the HDMI
Netflix is still looking for a "Androd Video playback Expert," But this isnt the first Android job posting on Netflix's site.

Exactly. See we used to have cable for our HDTV and internet at home but after out contract went up they rate jacked us so we cut it off. I only watch two channels on the TV anyway and we use my current 6800 with PDAnet on the laptop so it was no big deal. My wife likes to watch movies so we rent from the Redbox and Blockbuster vending machines for $1
But with Netflix and us both having Evo's we can stream whatever we want to our phone and HDMI it out to our HDTV.

[Q] Football season is here

I will be away from my television quite a bit this season, and want to know how I can watch some football on the evo. Minus the obvious slingbox, how do you stream live tv to your phone?
Capture card on desktop, VLC as a streaming server. LogMeIn Ignition for controls. Ta-da.
Slingbox. You can control your cable box and watch anything from anywhere. Its what I use when I'm on the road. I highly recommend it.

He was trying to avoid slingbox. The other suggestion looks good to me.
Try justin.tv.

I would love to use slingbox, but thats like a 200+ dollar investment on a phone I already paid a crap-load for.
NFL Sunday Package To-Go.
Goto Directv website and search for it. Nothing else comes close

Yeah but the slingbox will last you years and years without any additional cost. It's a one time fee. You can also watch on your laptop if you have one.
Just set up a slingbox pro hd and couldn't be happier.

Definitely couldnt talk the wife into letting me get the pro since its what 300 dollars. Also, dont really see a need for the HD one since it will mostly be watched on my phone.
I actually found the solo version on Newegg for 156, so I might be picking that up.
Orb is your friend....tv tuner card and access to your mp3 and video collection from one mobile interface. There is an ORB android app but there is no need for it, the web browser works great. Orb has built a nice interface that will scale to multiple mobile codecs. I have been using it for awhile...first had it running for my old nextel blueberry...
yeah but w/out the nfl sunday ticket you can watch 1 or 2 games. with nfl sunday ticket 2-go you can watch any game.
http://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/content/sports/nfl_online_mobile
Tuner card in your PC is the least expensive. I typically use that with Orb but I haven't tried it on the Evo yet. Basically the Slingbox is doing the same thing for more money. It's a capture card and media web streaming device. Basically you can spend $100 on the capture card or $200 on the Sling. It's up to you depending on budget and whether you feel like setting it all up.
you can easily get a slingbox on craigslist used for very cheap, $50 or less easily and its far and away better than any other option suggested unless you get the sunday ticket package.

[Q] AT&T U-verse Live TV apk

I was reading through about new phones and was looking at the Infuse 4G and saw that it had an app for U-verse Live TV and I have the hacked U-verse Mobile app but i think it would be nice to have the Live TV app and was wondering if any one could or has started to hack this one yet so us U-verse users can get more out of service
I downloaded one from the market. It was a piece of crap. Played no video and crashed if you so much as breathed on it wrong. I love the HBO app though, it works great with the Epic and U-verse.
I beleive you have to have U300 and above to watch video. I only have U200 and am considering dumping that and just going to a Digital antenna OTA.
Had a guy give me a quote to install a nice antenna tell me I could get 45 channels OTA. Not too shabby for $0/month.

[Q] Verizon NFL Live App

Is not possible! The loop hole that was used to get the Verizon NFL app to work on Sprint was sealed off and ever since then, is been a NO NO.......
Not to start an entire thread about the NFL lockout BUT I don't think there'll be any football this year anyways.....you should try to find an arena football app..hahaha
i think there will be a season... but on that note if it is in fact not possible does anyone know a way to get nfl network....i cant get it where i live from cable ...thats the main reason i want the app

Well that's the thing dude.....if someone was to crack the NFL Network app on Verizon, you still need the Vcast subscription that's required to watch streaming games and I don't think there's anyway to get around that without committing fraud or breaking some sort of rule which could either get you ban from XDA or possibly fine by Verizon or some crap.......
Why don't you just try to catch games via J Player?? It works wonders if you're on WiFi......3G is still good but a bit choppy at times

or you can get a sling box and a sling box app for your evo. works great a little bit in the on the pricey side, but worth it if there is football.

Doesn't sling box require you to have some sort of service through them or something like that????
I mean if it costs more than 100 dollars, the best bet is to take your butt to a sports bar and just watch the game there...hahahaha
got sling box but still no nfl network on my cable box.....
looks like ill have to live without the network this year .... but thanks for the tips there is always atdhenet.tv ..ill figure it out

This could be a deal breaker for the next couple months!

Yeah you would think Verizon would make their flagship app work with their flagship phone. But hey, at least they didn't screw up the release date of the 15th...
The NFL Mobile app doesn't work on the G-Nex? What the hell am I paying $10 a month for?
My 3 week old RAZR is sitting on eBay and it does something very important that the G-Nex doesn't. This is sad news.
Well at least my wife has a RAZR. I can watch it on hers.
I agree. This really pisses me off. I work out of town all the time and cant catch up on my NFL. I'm going to reactivate my Bionic and maybe return the Nexus if they don't resolve this quick. There are a bunch off apps that don't run or constantly crash. Verizon visual voicemail keeps crashing in the background also.
VZW states it is a 3rd party app
VZW Support @VZWSupport
@calKno This is a third-party application and we do not have an ETA of when it will be available on Nexus. ^LA

The app has certain approved devices that work with it.
I miss it only for the radio streams and the fieldview.

I never used it for the video, just the stats and to keep up with the game when I can't watch or listen to it.

I just don't understand why you would tie it to devices instead of just a Verizon account.

I guess it is a VZW "sponsored" app, so they limit to their phones and dropped the ball in having the developers prep it for SGN or ICS.

It's my understanding that -all- 4G phones, of which the G-Nex is included, are supposed to be able to use NFL Mobile for free. FWIW.
Yes....this is ridiculous. I was looking forward to streaming highlights and video. Now I can't even are a flipping score?
Several other apps not working as well.
I still love this thing though.

Not an issue of being free (which it is). Program doesn't even load up. Says device not yet supported.

I'm from the Netherlands and a great NFL fan.
all my NFL apps are working fine on the GNex.
fantasy football
gamepass mobile
NFL app (this one lets you view scores and highlights and news and such)
so is there a different app you're trying to use?
ps: all apps from NFL enterprises.
The APP we use in the states lets us watch the games live, We get full covereage of the NFL network games (thursday,saturday,sunday,monday night games) and for the bulk of them we use Red Zone to let us watch all the good plays while they happen.
Any chance of being able to maybe.... tinker.... with the ini? maybe trick it into thinking that its something different or maybe its just an issue of screen size again. Similar to swypes issue?

The same as game pass mobile
Only i pay a lot less since i life outside of the usa
It is a bummer that this doesn't work, but there seems to be a little self-contradiction here - a lot of complaints that Verizon GNex isn't a stock google phone, and then more complaints that they didn't do more to change the phone so that it would work with Verizon sponsored apps.
