Ice Stream app - "Wha Happened?"

Since yesterday, every link I click says the following:
"An error occurred while downloading information from IceFilms"
Using newest version. Uninstalled and reinstalled. Same
Anybody else?

I had a problem once with links saying not found. I was told to install a ad blocker which I did and it fixed it. You could try that

No go. Adaway was installed and up to date already. Uninstalled and had same issue. Installed Adfree and same issue.

Same problem here. Since yesterday, same error message

ok. sorry you have this issue, but glad I'm not alone. I can't believe there isnt anything about this that I can find.

Have you emailed the developer? Could be server issues...could be copyright issues

It's not on the market.. not sure who developer is. The normal site seems to be working fine. I thought it just used that for the app
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app

The app developer now has megastream pro I believe. He is probably not going to develop the icestream anymore as it would cut into any profit he could make. I hope im wrong as I love icestream
from my note 2

Yeah, what happened?
Is IceFilms down or is it the app?
Hope it's temporary, this app was my life!
Try asking Dev on ice films forum.
Edit:
Dev, 20 Oct
Hey Everyone, just wanted to apologize to everyone who's grown to love this app. Unfortunately my day job has been keeping me too busy to devote any real time to updating this app. However, I am still looking for any seasoned Java/Android developers who are willing to help out. If that's you, please drop me a line. In case I don't find anyone willing/able to help out or commit, I am hoping to release parts of this app's code. I'd love to release all the code to this app, however, large parts of it is commercial code that I can't make public. But I am planning on releasing the parts that seem to change constantly (ie: the parts that handle parsing the various file hosts' websites) so that anyone will be able to help out. It's gonna take a bit of time to change the project around to make that possible, but at least there's light at the end of the tunnel
Thanks,
Harry

Haha, thought it was a paid streaming service like Netflix only in the US, will try.
So, could you tell me how to get IceFilms on it, I'm not very familiar with this stuff.

In the second post of that thread there is a link to a list of XBMC repos. One of them is for icefilms. The one you really want is 1channel, way better than icefilms.

I agree 1 channel seems to work better than ice films usually. In addition, there are some android apps that come and go that access the sites 1channel index's. Recently there was one called tv portal that was just pulled and currently there is one called TV Stream
XMBC works well but last time i used it which was about month ago it absolutely kills batteries and loading plugins like 1 channel can take quite a while.
Also here is a good place to get ice stream although as others have said it is not currently working
http://slideme.org/application/ice-stream

XBMC is too advanced for me, and not optimized for touch.
But i found mega stream on 1Mobile Market (great app btw) and it's almost as simple as Ice Stream.

Any fix
same thing happening for me, I think it's a problem server-wise from icefilms, anybody have a fix yet for it though?

Dev has shut down server for app, try Mega Stream (download from 1Mobile Market), XBMC or other website.
Or if you're a dev you could help the dev with the app.

Yeah, using icefilms.info and getting the rapidshare links..then posting them into megastream pro..that's the way i'm doing it.. it takes about 15 seconds longer than the old ice stream app way

MightText SMS for tablets

Is anyone else using this free app. If not, WHY. Absolutely love it! Get your phone SMS to your tablet AND PC!!!! You can also respond via tablet and PC.

Pretty simple to set up. Not sure how or if this will piss me off in the long run, but I'll let you know.

Similar to Mighty Text, but higher rated and has a $.99 price tag.
Extremely responsive Dev who is always improving/tweaking it.
This type of app is a must-have for me as well.

Been using it for about a month now myself. No issues, works great.

Same here. Devs were responsive for a few emails, and then they just sort of dropped off. Please let me know if you get this figured out. Are out using Handcent or Go SMS on you phone?

That happened to me as well. I unlinked my tablet in the settings and added it back again and it fixed it.

Devs were the same with me, responsive at first, then gave up. No extra sms apps installed so that's not the problem. Also tried resetting everything, but no joy.

Yeah, I tried unlinking and relinking. Didn't work. I decided to just pay the $5 per year and go back to DeskSMS. It has been super reliable across any and every build on my phone, and its companion, TabletSMS, has worked with both my Nexus 7 and my TouchPad. Worth the money to me.

App store issues?
I just picked up a Nexus 7 the other day and went to download Mightytext from the app store and it is saying my device is not compatible? I feel like something is very wrong here. Any suggestions?

Derp... wrong app. Finally figured it out

I use it but I'm a little concerned about privacy... Its obvious the actual texts and phone numbers are going through mighty texts servers to get from AT&Ts system to my nexus 7 which is only connected via WiFi, or is that incorrect? I text a lot of highly sensitive info due to my line of work. I hope I'm worried for nothing because its a great app and one more reason to put my phone down while I'm on my tablet.

I think it's going through googles servers since you login with your Google credentials, but I guess that could be just for authentication. If you need more privacy tablet talk syncs via Bluetooth but I think you have to pair it a lot.

Yeah I had tablet talk for awhile, I just hate having to connect it every time. I'd love for someone to give us some clarification on my privacy question. Lemme see if I can search for the answer. I'll post it here if I find it. :good:

Love this app
I love this app so much I made an inverted version. Screenshots attached.
I will upload to test if anyone is interested. Then I will start a post for it once I know it's working for more people then myself. I only themed hdpi so Nexus 7 only for now.
Let me know please!!!!!

iMessage.... What a complete and total copy..... Granted, you can easily say the same for this app and Whatsapp. Idk, I think this is easier and much better than whatsapp (used both). I messages claims to use phone number only.....so does MightyText....
What do you guys think?

If you did the free trial, unfortunately it won't give you the full license since its for new accounts only. I would recommend grabbing another android device that you did not use the trial on and creating a new account with that.

Try to do it through 4g/data, the servers are getting hammered so that error message is normal because I received it too.

Have never lost a phone before but better safe than sorry

i'm going to go ahead and say that this sucks...simply because of the new accounts only...it woulda been nice to have said that before i logged into my existing account...which now my phone is attached to...and since the free trial is up i'm screwed...

Easy fix:
1) Go the the Cerberus login page and enter your info
2) Once logged in (if your trial is expired) it should give you a message saying "Your trial has expired!"
3) If you see the trial expired message, you should also see a "Delete Account" option on the same page, click that
4) Once your account is deleted simply download/reinstall the app and register again (you can even use the same info)
Voila! Free license!
Didnt try it but read it in reddit Try your luck

THanks a lot, uff that was close its almost 1am

{UPDATED} Smart Remote for Galaxy S4 - RETURNED TO PLAY STORE! FLOATING REMOTE ADDED

UPDATE: There has been an update released since returning to the Play Store yesterday. The biggest things would be the addition of a floating (chatheads-esque) remote and a backup/restore option (linked to your Google account).
---------------------------------------------------------
As of this morning, 7/26, Smart Remote is back in the Play Store. No update yet, but knowing them one will be available within a day.
---------------------------------------------------------
If you, like me, have been wondering where your favorite remote app for the GS4 went and when is coming back, I just got an email from the developer.
Hi
The app is off the market because of an error on Google's part since July 2nd . It is not something that we can do and they are saying the app will be available again in about 7 working days.*
In the meantime we are working to come back with new cool features.*
If you uninstalled the app we can provide a link where you can download it and use it untill we will be back . We are also offering full support like always .*
Regards
Alina
I can't wait to see the new features. These guys have always been very responsive to user request and input. Hopefully next week we'll see is return to the Play Store.
---------------------------------------------------------
I just got a follow up email after asking if she might share what some of these features might be:
Hi Kenan,
The problem is that the competition already copied our app, and making these features public would give them a head start releasing them before we even get a chance to. Just believe us when we say that it will be a lot faster for you to access your remotes, install the app on your other devices and automate tasks.*
Thank you,
Alina

thank you for the info

Is a customizable app for the IR blaster. You'll be able to control most things with an IR port, from your TV to your air conditioner. For me it's completely replaced every remote in my house. Think of it as a much more handy and powerful Logitech Harmony remote, macro commands included. Plus the developers are very responsive (within a day many times) to adding devices.

As I said, it's a paid app so I'm not going to post a download link or provide the file. If the developers want to provide one to you that's up to them. I would write them an email and ask. But it should be back in the Play Store this week.

I thought I was crazy. Haha. I purchased the app, but went flash happy with new roms and didn't do a backup of it... Went to download it from the store again and it was gone! I emailed Google and got some canned response that "they were unable to refund my purchase" which wasn't what I had asked at all. Anyway, glad it's back!

Do you need to have the TouchWiz ROM, or will it work on AOKP?

NFC Pranks?

Bought some NFC tags for my S3 and going to give one to a friend to use on his NFC.
I want to put something funny on it but can't come up with anything? It needs to work without requiring a special app, I thought about making it auto send a text but that's not possible, it just opens the message app with the text.
I tried opening a certain 'comedy' website featuring a song by the group "Dead or Alive", but sadly it's a flash site so that's out the picture.
Any other ideas of what I can do, or even similar websites that will work on android, or ones that play sound loudly or whatever. Shock factor would be good.

How about putting a strong NFC sender in his house so when he walks past it it opens a website, forexample: www.kittenwar.com Rick roll, trololol, a porn site ect. ect...

I know this is maybe not exactly whay u want and im unsure if its possible witg nfc tag but maybe (for the messaging trick) use nfc tage to open the text message app u want to send with the text predisplayed then.
adb start-server
adb connect localhost:5038
Input keyevent (key no. required)
E.g. key 7 is number 14
Just use key number for tab so it highlights the send.key and then input key code for enter key.
Let me know how this works out .
