So I am writing this question on if you have bought an app on a phone like a my desire hd can you install the app for free on another phone with the same google account. Another question is if I buy a game on tegra zone like on a one x will I have to repurchase it again on another tegra device. They both should have a strict policy where you can redownload for free. What about apple store do you have to repay again for the same app if you have a app on iPad and iPhone but I'm sure apple said that the point of cloud service is when you download an app on one device it appears on the other.

When you purchase an app on a google account it is linked to that account not the device so you can download it on any device you have signed into the account on its the same on ios with the iPhone and iPad I'm not too sure about tegrazone though.

It's not immediate.
It'll probably be bundled in an update.
Hi, guys im trying to buy backbreaker thd from googleplay but it says "your device is Not Suitable for your device" what can i do about That or any solution?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
If your device is rooted you have to edit the build.prop ( plenty of tutorial out there => search )
If you are not rooted i don't think there is a "legal" way.
Thank you so much

How is it possible that Backbreaker THD, obviously for Tegra, isn't compatible with my One X? I can buy it with my Desire, a bit strange isn't it?

But the Desire is two years old and has no Tegra. It has a very modest Adreno 200 video chip, so it's likely it won't even run the game and at best it will but on low quality. Why is it available anyway? There is a normal version of the game, which is less expensive. Why sell a Tegra game to a device that has no benefit of it?
You are Absolutely right

Because in the app manifest you can't filter by CPU, but you can (and obviously the dev had done it) by screen density. That's about the only thing that's different and could make your desire suitable for the app, as it has the same density as the older tegra 2 phones. I would suggest contacting the developer as it would be a minor update on his part, so it can be done quickly.

There are other ways to block devices, you can filter out any device you want. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9510649/how-to-restrict-android-app-to-specific-device-make
So it's just plain laziness or greed of the developer.
Newbie here folks, go easy!
Basically I'm just trying to get some info on the Sky Go app coming to the One X. I have had numerous emails back and forward with Sky and they are just like politicians when it comes to answering questions on the subject. I got this from them yesterday but it's a cop out. They say they are working on getting the best selling phones sorted first. How can they say the One X is not one of the best selling phones? My angered increased this week when I noticed the app was rolled out across 3 Samsung devices, again, ignoring the One X. I upgraded from a Desire to this phone and the Desire ran it without any bother. It's disgraceful how they're dragging their heels on this. anyway, this is what they sent yesterday:
sky.com/helpcentre/sky-go-on-android/
Example:
"Why is Sky Go only available on selected HTC and Samsung smartphones?
The Android platform covers a wide range of devices that have differing hardware and versions of the Android operating system. We have to tailor the Sky Go app for each smartphone to ensure our customers with these handsets get the optimum Sky Go experience which takes considerable time to build and test before we can release it. Factors we need to consider include:
HDMI out - The majority of new Android smartphones include the option to plug your phone into your TV through your HDMI port. We have to disable this feature so that we do not breach our contracts with content providers, and the process for doing this is different for each model.
Screen resolutions - Each device has a different screen resolution which we need to optimise in order to deliver the best picture quality on each device.
Media Player - There are several different built in media players. We must adjust our content stream in order to provide an optimum stream with minimal disruption.
Given these constraints, we have chosen to launch on a selection of the most popular Android smartphones based on their sales volumes to ensure as many Sky TV customers as possible can enjoy Sky Go.
We are aware of unofficial versions of Sky Go for Android devices. Please note that these will not be supported by Sky."

Thanks Shankly, I'll root out that link if its still around. You've been more help to me this morning than Sky has been in 3 months!

Wow that was quick!!! Thanks!!
I'd personally take it with a pinch of salt until we actually see it - wouldn't be surprised if Sky don't release it for the One X!

i don't understand why they need to disable hdmi out? if you're paying for the service to watch on a tv, then why the hell can't you watch it on a tv?

voodoo worked fine on my Galaxy S2 but doesn't seem to work on my HOX.
Is there anyway of watching sky go on laptop/Pc then streaming/watching via our HOX?

Not having sky go in the UK must be coasting HTC sales big time,if its a choice between one x with no sky go or the S 3 with it how many Joe public will just go for the S3
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
I think sky are pulling a fast one as i can get sky on my pc & it has hdmi & is connected to a 24 inch 1080p monitor, makes the argument about the one x not getting sky go very lame.

Do you have a sense 4+ device and love playing games on it? Well your in luck because HTC and Play station Mobile are being generous enough to give out free PS Mobile games to anyone with a HTC device with Sense 4+. Every week has a new game starting February 1st and the first game is Cubixx.

This might have been mentioned in the Apps and themes thread before this official announcement, I managed to get Samurai Beatdown back on 17th Jan for free, Lemmings is there still now
But I agree, a good move for HTC to try and get some better media attention hehe
Tells me that the service isn't available in my region/country!!!

For those looking for TV out function for your HTC ONE, plz check this video

and here is the sellers link:

Cheaper option would be to buy chromecast and wait for koush's app to be approved for release.
If you can find them I've only seen them for 60-100$ in stock I'm on waiting list for 35$ price which is what it is
