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.

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.
Anyone able to get the netflix app off the LG Revolution?

Ohh, I want it too!
Hopefully this means we will be getting it soon (hacked or official). Apparently, you can have up to 6 devices linked to one Netflix account. So I will be able to watch using my wife's Netflix account.
Please oh please oh please!
I hope soon, I've been waiting fooorrreverrrr for this!

That's a quick way to reach your alloted 5gb of 4g data!
yeah, sucks having to tether to an ipod touch to get your netflix content while away from a Wi Fi source. Might be the only reason why I haven't sold my ipod actually, the netflix app.
I would be happy with just a Netflix app that solely provides the opportunity to search for movies and manage your queues, not for watching movies on the G2 (although that would be sweet).

Care to share which one is actually worth using? I've tried a couple and they're not really good. I'm looking for one designed by Netflix, not some 3rd party developer.
as far as i know android hasnt received love from netflix due to security and piracy concerns. Dated November 13th (short article BTW)
http://www.engadget.com/2010/11/13/netflix-headed-to-select-android-devices-early-next-year/#
androinica claims they have seen the Netflix app on an LG Revolution. But where can I get it for my G2?
I've about had it with Netflix and their crappy movie line up anyways. They charge you $8.99 a month (which is fair) but then they offer so few good available and the others are dvd only. Then they "fix" this issue by charging you more dvds out at a time to make up for it. Its just about screwing over folks and milking them for the $20, 30, or 40 plan. I wish they would just upload all digital streaming and offer dvd to those old fashioned folks who actually want it. Plus, their reasoning for not offering their app on android is ludicious.... I hope something better comes along soon
Damn peoples. You gotta be patient. How are people going to pull and share the Netflix app when they just figured it out recently that one exists for Android. I mean don't get me wrong, I want the app as much as the next person but its not going to magically appear. Let the Android community do its magic. I don't even think people even got to mess with the phone yet let alone the Netflix app.

History of android phones has shown that apps from pre-release dumps and leaks from upcoming phones as well as preview phones have found their way to xda before a phones release. It isn't too far fetched nor unreasonable to have a little expectation that it may have happened or will in this case

I was under the impression that one of the main reason Netflix has not come to Android is because of the backbone of Netflix streaming, which is M$ Silverlight

Its not netflix - its pressure from hollywood and the studio execs for both the lack of streaming titles and the android app/"drm" concerns. And let's not forget that apple has their tentacles deep in hollywood cuz of their involvement with pixar and apple tv (jobs was the ceo of pixar).
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Yeah, that sounds about right about the lack of complete library streams. Other the other matter, I'm sure ports will be on the way. The only issue I foresee is linking the account to the device if its ported. Might be a pain to get the port properly to avoid that issue...
I'd greatly appreciate a netflix app for my g2. I'm jealous of the iphones netflix app. -__-

I am personally inclined to believe it has more to do with Apple's influence/blackmail than the pirating issue. It seems far fetched that someone would resort to a phone stream to pirate movies or shows.
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

Thanks for the advice mizzo, ill surely keep an eye on ATDHE for it.
Yea it's not there but there is plenty of nascar... But hey, android has flash so yea find a stream. Good luck that sucks that you have to work on what should be a national holiday
Swyped from my Evo on steroids.
So apparently its out on market but search doesn't bring it up. Is it possible its only out for verizon at the moment(that's the only name mentioned in the tech blogs)? I remember it not supposed to be released till the 2nd or March but you know those things can go right?
Edit: doesn't matter for me anyhow..stupid time warner!!!

its on there, i cant get it to play on videos yet. it just gives me schedule for shows and movies
Might be different in certain markets. I'm in texas and it doesn't show up for me. My buddy in st. Louis doesn't get a lot of the apps I tell him to look for due to same reason.
For me it doesn't matter because rupert murdoch and company won't play nice!!

i installed it at about 9 or 10pm pacific time last night here in vegas, i have directv and it installed just fine, and i can watch videos just fine.
Must be nice...rumors say time warner and cablevision will have it end of summer, but official statements nothing will happen anytime soon...

Installed it here in Washington. I have Xfinity. Signed up with my comcast account info and voila instant HBO video streaming. Pretty cool. I'll have to test it out on my G-Slate when I get home. Works great on my G2 though.
how bizarre that some people see ti and some dont. i imagine if you're a subscriber they have a link elsewhere as well.
Please help!
Why does the app want me to create a new HBOGo ID?? I have already created one on the HBOGo webpage.
Do I need 2 HBO ID's, one for the PC and another for my EVO phone?
Well I'm a little disappointed in HBO. This app works great on my G2. Went to install it on my GSlate and no go. "This app does not support your device" Well thats just grand I can watch it on my little screen but not on my 9" tablet. That makes total sense.
Been out searching for a way to watch TV on my device in some shape or form.
Checked the play store, Google, applanet, and Aptoide.
I can't find a reliable place.
Have anyone found anything reliable??? Got movies going for me for free on android but I don't spend much time on movies.
Hi,
Maybe SPB TV:http://spbtv.com/android-software/tv/
But not updated for a long time,I tested it on my HTC Sensation (without ICS) and it worked well.
But now on Gnex and ICS I don't know...Maybe you can give a try...
Weird. They show a GNEX advertising their app on their site. Yet I can't find it on the store.
Any reason for this. Seen this app on my iPod.
Edit1: Now I know why ppl bashed at this in iTunes. =p
Doesn't have Any of the American channels. This is like every other app I've seen.
Thanks though.
Veetle is a good one(playstore). It's only streaming of what the authors choose to host. You can pick from movies, sports, shows. Similar to justin.tv if you are familiar with the format. The down side is again it's streaming and you have to watch what they put up and when.
If you have Xfinity or Comcast there you can watch their on demand with their player. "xfinity player"
For US sadly there is not many streamed live TV channels.
Warner got something going. Got a cousin's ex who told me how they did it is weird and is a mystery and is can't be understood really. He does AT&T cable stuff.
Before I dive into this veetle app, Are there any channels a 16 year old would watch lol.
Cuz I'm 16 and really aim for the larger networks. =p
