Watch TV on the Eris - Droid Eris Themes and Apps

It may not be an app, but I found a website that has a bunch of TV shows that stream on the Eris. the site is androidvideo.net . it is very compatible for the Eris.

Nice Find watching !

I hope more people donate so they can get more space to put more shows up. The admin told me that they are trying to get a 1000 shows up by the end of the year, but they need more space.

Sweet thanks.

Have you seen the show selection, LMAO!

I think it has some good shows on there. They may be a few years old, but they are still good. Plus what other options do we have with the Eris.

I do like this site nice find. Hopefully there will be better things to come

When I donated $5, I got a thank you email from the admin. I asked him how he thought of the idea and he told me that he had an Eris and got irritated that we didnt have too many options for watching videos so he decided to create his own option. He told me that the more that people donate, the more webspace he can afford to upload more shows to watch. So if you like the website, please donate so he can afford to upload more shows. I'm going to continue to donate $5 a month just to help ensure the site is able to grow. I'm really happy that the Eris isn't being left in the dust with this website since it is compatible with every Android because it don't use flash.

CH131.COM works on my phone.

If your rooted on froyo then jetflicks app from market is a really good app updated daily and plays really well on Eris. Its updated daily and has every show I've looked for. Hope this helps.

You don't need to be rooted for Jetflicks to work. And you don't need to buy the app since you can go straight to their website. I also subscribe to them. The problem I have with them is they have said certain shows were coming soon, and 4 months later, they still aren't there.

CH131.com doesn't work on my stock browser. androidvideo.net does. ch131.com may work with skyfire though.

Want Words With Friends on Android? Try WordFeud!

I just saw this game on another site and decided to give it a try since it's free. I've been want Words With Friends or a decent clone for awhile. Wordwise Pro just doesn't fit the bill. So far WordFeud is great given it's really new.
http://wordfeud.com/
PS: I'm not getting paid to promote this. It's just really fun and I'd though I'd share.
Add me if you want to play. My ID is Snapshotx
Awesome! I have been looking for something like this. Thanks so much. Just started playing you, username is Foobu.
Thanks for the recommendation! I have been missing "Words with Friends"
Anyone can add me for a game as well. My ID is dweebs0r.
wioooow this is the most exciting day I have ever had work my captivate, please people just uninstall word wize loool, that's is it,this is actually better than words with friends, all it needs is sounds, and an option to pay for a add free version, if they make this a cross platform words with friends is going to be yesterdays news
The reason I want words with friends is so that I can play with my fiancee on her iPhone.
tell get to get a android then you can be reunited with word feud again lol
Having alot of problems staying connected

Been playing it with my coworker since this morning, lol... Btw, is there a way to resign even if it's not your turn yet?
yes, this is MUCH better than WordWize - almost exactly like WWF.... if anyone is up for a game, feel free to invite me: Aftashok is the name.
man I used to LOVE words with friends on my iPhone. Thanks so much for sharing this!!!
If anyone wants to play just add: smeltn
i wish the game would incorporate a ratings system and win/loss records..... the competitive me wishes for such things.
Wish there was at least a paid version to get rid of ads, hopefully that will come cause i dont mind paying a dollar to support the developer on this, pretty good so far and the people over at WWF probably wont release anything for a while. Thought that games that were won/lost didnt go away but apparently they do after 2 days, needs to be sooner than that or user removable.
Name: hollaholla
Sweet!
Mine is TexUS.
It'd be nice if WWF would show up on here though so I can play with iPhone people.
This game uses a lot of data, like 1MB in 1 Minute.
Is there anyway to stop it from using data when you're not in a WiFi area?
thanks for the heads up...
awesome game...
PS: not to thread-jack, but has anyone found a good boggle clone out there... with randomly oriented letters like the real game?

check out wordup. it's a "boggle-like" game.
on topic, word feud is fun. checking out how much batt. it takes with the push notification and multiple games. add me for games: funthony.
I gave this a try a few weeks ago, after using WordWise for 2 months...and I wasn't a big fan. The lack of a paid version, updates, and stat tracking was kind of a deal breaker.
WordWise was admittedly spartan when it first came out...but the developer updates the app fairly regularly, so I think I'mma stick with that one...until it gets abandoned or WordFeud updates. Heh.

You should definitely post up an apk.
It'll give me something to mess with in class while I watch my Texans play the Colts instead of listening to my incredibly boring prof drone on for 3 hours.

that would never happen
It's out on the market but please share the apk!
Yes, please share the apk ^.^ I want to try it out so bad
You can buy it on Android Market now.
Even if it's only $1 or whatever, it is a bad policy to charge for this on the Market. This being so radically different then other keyboards, they should really put this out for free to expand the user base.
I can see it on AppBrain but not once I open it in the market.
Not an option in Canada or not an option for my 2.2 Stream Liquid E?
Can someone post the apk somewhere? We have all have established that it should have been free for a trial at least
Where to get it.
I couldn't find it on appmarket. I don't see any paid apps so thats probably why it doesn't show up. I agree that there should be a trial version of it at, at least to see how it works.
I would love to pay for this, but I never had an itch to setup Market with payments. Anyone can share the APK somewhere?

I agree. They need to get a good user base going to spread the word before they start charging. I just want to run a trial of it or something. Then If I begin to like it I'll buy it.
It's not a free app so posting an apk is warez. There is no trial in the market either.

Using 8pen to type this is taking some time but I have to say i am impressed at how quickly I am getting used to writing with it. And it can be reallyfast when I am writing familiar words. Worth using for a few days to see how it works. I will post back in a few days to let you all know what I think.

Texty- send and receive text from desktop

We need this for the Xoom. http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...ter-because-youre-not-texting-enough-already/
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
Exactly, the same thing, just on the xoom, with native notifications, so we get a text on the phone and the xoom picks it up and answers like it was getting it on its own.
Reply to the dev here. Tell him you want the app on the XOOM.
You can also email him here.
info @ textyapp.com
I got a reply from the developer of the Texty App. It looks like we might see mobile to mobile support in a month or two!
Hi there! Thanks for your interest in this...
We've definitely got a lot of interest from folks to see their text messages on tablets...Specifically XOOM, and iPad! Looks like there are a bunch of folks who have an android phone, but also an iPad...
We plan on building a tablet client, but it probably won't be for another 4-5 weeks at minimum. Our primary goal right now is to roll out the Texty Beta more broadly.
We might open up an API to allow third parties to build clients, though
take care![/I]
Looks good to me!
i hope this does come out for the XOOM i love that app !

Why dont you guys put your apps in the market?

Is there a reason? I've used several nice apps from here, but just curious why you dont give them more exposure.
A lot of them are on the market, they are just posted here too.

It costs money to get on the market. Xda is free. Would you rather get something for free here, or pay for it on the market?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I think I remember reading in another thread that there was a fee you have to pay before putting apps on the market. I assume it doesn't matter if the app is free or not.

Thats true.
Its like 20$+ to be a developer for Android.
The devs may not be sure if they'll get that 20$+ back after putting it on the market and it doesn't sell as much... so they post it here
As a Dev $25 doesnt really matter to potentially get more exposure so I don't understand why other devs don't put their good apps on the market many of them are useful even for people other than power users
is $99 not $25 and not all devs are from market enabled countries
I'm pretty sure it's $25. The app store on iOS is 100.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
The only reason I can see besides the $25 or $99 fee is the ratings.
Once an app is posted to the market you have somewhere around 9.2 million Americans with access to your app. If your app has bugs or is not perfect from the start you start getting 1 star ratings. These ratings will slowly knock your app away from any sort of recognition.
Developers on XDA post there app here in order to receive constructive criticism, instead of a market comment like "App has Force Close Errors 1 star." Instead on XDA the developers can get and give ideas to other. Then when they seem like the app is fully tested they can choose to post it to the market.

The Android Market fee is a ONE-TIME $25. iOS is yearly.
Xda is a test bed for good ideas. Said good ideas get made into an app that gets throughly tested ppl with different phone models then the dev. Then the app can go to market.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
My apps are in the Android Market.
Mine is on the Market and has a thread on here, although I haven't attached the free APK to the thread.
And yeah, although the UI isn't great (I have plans for it) and I don't advertise a lot, I still managed to earn a little over $200 so far, making back well over the $25 I spent to be able to sell my app. It's worth it.

The above is a very good reason for posting your app elsewhere before publishing on the market. Most of the market reviews I've had regarding a problem didn't include any useful information on how to replicate the issue. For example, you'll typically get comments like "Freezes!" or "Force closes!" with no indication where in the app these problems occur. Likewise, identifying and fixing device specific issues is particularly difficult if you only rely on market reviews.

I'm not sure this is a big deterrent. It's a $25 one-time fee to publish as many apps as you want and you wouldn't need many sales or ad clicks to cover this cost.
agree....you will get more useful info alot faster on XDA regarding fuctionality and bug reports.
Alot of people just develop apps as a hobby with no intention of selling them. So why pay the $25?
and sometines you get banned without explanation so its a good place to upload you apk's google ban without send a warning maybe an icon, maybe something you did wrong and you couldnt fix they just ban and close you play store forever (and the next account you can made)
I put my Apps both on here and on the App Store.
I don't make any money from my apps, but I love Android because it's only a one time fee of $25 to publish apps to Android.
I was going to start with iOS but that's $100 yearly. Kind of ridiculous in my opinion.
Yup, Google Play is only a 1 time fee of $25. I dont think devs should be afraid of low ratings. You can't satisfy everyone. I get requests daily about what I should include in the app. There a lot of ideas and for a 99 cent app, I'm just not sure its worth it to build all these ideas into the app. The ones I do pay attention to are the ones where they say something doesn't work or it crashes when this or that happens.

Need Some Help From My XDA Family!!

Ok first of all, this post has nothing at all to do with Android except for the fact that I used to be a developer for the HTC Eris and am now a themer for our LG Revolutions.
Here's how I need your help. All I need is for my fans here at XDA, to support a very good friend of mine from back home. I can't believe I never thought of asking this before but here goes the backstory.
One of my very good friends from back home, Ryan Andreas, tried out for America's Got Talent. He flew past the first round but for some reason the judges never gave him a second thought. This guy is a phenominal singer! I'm not just saying that because he is my friend. I'm saying it because I believe it. All I need you guys to do is to watch his performance (and his other home made videos if you want) and judge for yourself. If you feel he is worthy of your support, then please buy his album when it comes out! Even if you don't buy his album, then please at least stop by his website and give him some words of encouragement. Here's the video, thanks guys!

Quick question. I used to be over at the eris forums myself and I was wondering what ROM was it that you were working on. I miss that little eris that could.
I had a Froyo build and a Gingerbread build but they didn't get much recognition since Tazz and Shed came out with their builds way before mine. My Froyo build was called FroHicks and my GB build was called TastyBread.
That's so crazy! He was actually one of my favorites! I couldn't believe it when he didn't make it through!

Yeah we were too, I was in the audience rooting him on for his first performance and so mad when he told us they wasn't sending him through to the next round. So I figured I would try to do my best to get his name out there. He should be coming out with a cd pretty soon hopefully!
And I know exactly how you feel, I love Americas Got Talent!
