Text app? - 8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the 4G LTE version of the kindle and I was wondering if its possible yo text from it? It has a sim card in there and correct APN information. I tried https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.concentriclivers.mms.com.android.mms but it keeps saying please wait for service to be available when I have 4 bars.

Anyone? Since I can use data from my sim then should I be able to make calls + text?

I don't think the part that is used for data/3g is the same as what's used for texting and calls, but I am no expert, if u wanna make free calls get magic jack from the play store, as for texting I know multiple methods, but they aren't exactly native they are just apps, and sometimes you have to pay.

I have not got texting to work either. I thought it would be a good backup if in our of coverage on my phone. I plan on continuing to try.

That linked you provided in the op, I checked it and noticed they said the app doesn't currently work and to use an old version they have a download link to in the description, did you try using that? Also are you on stock amazon or another ROM?

Ya I tried the link in the the apps description. I have also extracted my Galaxy Note's texting app. No luck =/
I am on stock Amazon.
I think it would be amazing to get calling and texting to work on it. Its like I am already paying for data which comes with minutes and txts.

Yea I wonder if it would work on cm, I thought I heard that hashcode had it working, but then I read another thread I saw people asking for him to get it to work, so idk.

Yup tried every app possible that installs on the Kindle OS. Nothing. =[

I was perusing the forums and found a ROM for lte versions that's kinda in testing, maybe u can try it out and see if it works with one of the apps or a native one or something. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2391776

Is there any way to keep The Sims free play from crashing?

EDIT
Or is there a more recent version that can work?
It looked like a fun game for my new tablet and when I click on the green house icon it just kicks me outta the game to the homescreen .
Could it be the rom I'm using? I'm using hashcode's stock CM9 if that makes a difference.

I use it on the iPad. There's no android version that I can find...
I had it running on my touch pad and nook tablet. There is an apk for it. Pm me if you want it. There are other things that need to be installed with it as well but can't remember off the top of my head.

Virgin TV Anywhere

Could anyone still running 4.3 on Nexus 7 or 10 or has another compatible tablet who has installed this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...dia.tvanywhere
please extract the apk and share it on here.
I have managed to sideload it and it works on 4.4 but I can only seem to get hold of phone version online which is stuck in portrait mode. The page says the version varies with device so there must be a tablet version which should install on a compatible device.
Thanks in advance.

You can't use this app if your device is "Modified"(Rooted).
Tried it on my S3 on 4.3
It allowed me to access my Tivo stuff but wont let you watch live TV.

There's an Xposed module that lets you hide root from individual apps.

IT WORKS on KIT KAT, thanks for the attachment and hard work. You've done a superb job.
On my HTC one, as I've installed a custom Rom I had to edit the build prop to make it the correct htc Europe model etc...
I built it with lucky patcher.
I used lucky patcher to install as well as it helped to remove the old version firstly and start a fresh.
I had to block root access as the app requested permission too.

Lucky Patcher won't let me remove the old version. I get 'restoration failed'. Strange thing is using the Android UI settings I cannot find TV Anywhere. Doesn't seem to be installed. Any ideas please? :silly:
Clear cache... of it's still being stubborn.. I believe the app stores itself in mnt/asec mnt RW and delete tva folder.

Thanks for your reply. I've been trawling through Root Explorer but cannot find anything TV Anywhere related. I'll probably just do a factory reset as I like to do this periodically anyway.

I'm just looking for some feedback on what the Virgin TV Anywhere app is like on an OUYA. It is easy to navigate using the OUYA controller? Are the programmes all displayed fullscreen? Are On Demand and Netflix and Youtube channels also available?
I ask because at the mo I only have the HD+ Virgin box. To use this app on an Android device you need a Tivo. This means having to pay an extra £5 a month, but more significantly, take out a new contract to get a Virgin Tivo box. So I want to be sure the app is any good before I splash the cash and signup.
Cheers
The app allows u to stream a select few channels live... You can't watch on demand or content in my shows. But you can remotely manage your recordings... IMHO... Not worth upgrading as you can use rcx for remote and other free TV streaming apps... I'll make a list of channels Virgin streams...

[Q] Virgin Media TV Anywhere (UK)

Hi,
I have just installed the Virgin Media TV Anywhere App on my rooted N2, it states you can't stream media on rooted devices does anyone know how I could possibly by pass this?
thanks
Yep. Unroot your phone.
I would say your best bet is to search the forum for s thread regarding the sky go app.
In there there's lots of suggestions on how to circumnavigate this non rooted phone requirement.
Hope you succeed

Do you mind uploading the app or giving a download link I can't find the app anywhere. I'm sure there will be an xposed module that will bypass the root check

Virgin's TV Anywhere app is at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.virginmedia.tvanywhere
I would like a version that lets me run it on a rooted device too. I don't plan to lose essential functionality such as ClockworkMod backups just for the sake of watching Virgin TV (TV Catchup does most of what I want anyway) but it'd be nice to have the option.
Andre
I'm the same would like to have the functionality of virgin TV anywhere but not at the expense of non rooted. The TV remote bit works nicely but not that bothered about that. It feels like virgin half assed this app doesnt work on KitKat either but the remote part does???
Hope someone can solve this cheers guys
If its anything like Sky Go its not going to be easy
Any solutions found to this? Have tried uninstalling SuperSU and re-installing the Virgin app but it seems to remember my device is rooted and blank out the Watch button. How would I go about clearing all memory of the Virgin app?
Thanks!
i found a way to do it! method is easy... it is working... pm for details... that is confirmed streaming channels using tv anywhere on rooted device...

Just to confirm, this works with Xposed framework & Root Cloak now. Just remember to remove it from SuperUser app permissions if you inadvertently clicked OK whilst tinkering.
Still not working on KitKat phones it seems

Once you've installed what you need to, try clearing the Virgin app's data, and then your phone's Data Chache and Dalvik, and see if that helps.

Will the app install? I've got one for you, see if you can get the walmart app to install (and work on your phone). There are several others I've managed to install, but they won't run or just go to a blank screen. Other examples I've installed but they don't seem to run are Dominos app (love ordering pizza) and Flipp (the most awesome weekly sales flyer app).
Thanks I'll try the 1mobile, error I usually get is like not compatible with your device.
