I'm downloading right now!
Edit: And of course the first trial run results in a green screen and reboot!
connection error

Guess they still have some issues or setting up the servers still...

Well, I was able to download it, but after trying to play two different videos, it resulted in the green screen of death, no audio, and a forced reboot (that it did on its own).
Not messing with it until they figure it out...
Edit: oh yeah, I'm NOT rooted (well I guess that would be obvious...)
well now i have the video working on WIFI but on my 3g it doesn't seem to be working...

Yeah I just realized, I forgot to say this was over 3G as well. Maybe the 3G speed is just too crappy for now.
Well my droid og worked fine with netflixs from my desk.. .. plus using playon for netflix over 3g on my droid 3 works just fine.. lets hope they are not blocking..
It works now, they forgot to update the actual app. Just updated the description.
Update!
seems to be working just fine now over 3g after an uninstall and reinstall
Yep, works fine for me after the update. Thanks to everyone who recommended this!

It works sweet on my At&t Fuze! Thanks!
Errors out on my Fuze.
yeah i want to know if it works on the fuze and if it works over wifi because i dont have a data plan. Thanks
thanks, just in time for playoffs!
works on my Fuze on 3G fine
Hmm, what am I doing wrong for me to have it error out on me like that? Installs fine but unable to launch it. Using ROMeOS's latest.
It may just be software issues on my end.
EDIT: Works now, I actually stopped and read the error (duh), It didn't see my data connection so I turned on Wifi. I may have to tinker in the connection settings to see my data connection.
BTW thnx OP for the cab.
how is the speed on TP? I recently upgraded from an apache and the NFL app was slow as sh*t
i cant install it because of an error in the setup file?? any suggestions?

Pretty slow for me on the fuze.
I got the error too initially. Do a soft reset. It worked for me.
I got it to install just fine and i can read all the links and stories but i can not see any video. with that being said..... NOW i am using this on an EPIX (dont see and good threads anywhere sorry) most all .cab's work like the should (ppc wm6.1 and so on)but the software tells me that i dont have a device that can stream video??? any ideas? could this be because sprint has nothing like this device and the FUZE is on their network???? any feed back would be nice.
Sorry guys, I don't really have any answers...Bit I am using Hibby's 1.7 ROM from ppgeeks. I don't plan on using this all that much, but as far as I can see, the app works 100% on my phone. Yes, a little slow, but it works.
I have the ATT Fuze.....works Great Thank You!
works amazing! thanks! anyway to get the video to play fullscreen though?
Installed with no issues and runs with no issues. But like some others, it does seem to run pretty slow.
It works on my Tilt, but I can't watch any video. I'll be getting my Fuze this weekend and will try it on there
Hey all,
I am by no means a dev, but I have had some interesting revelations on the Sprint TV app. I've been messing with the apk and found I can run the app if I delete the check_wifi.lua file. If I try to edit it, it will crash. I tried changing the ip address it checks for wifi, but it won't install if I do that.
I think it'd be an easy thing to do, but I know very little about all this. Any thoughts?

All I did was open it in notepad and changed the last number in the ip address to a 0 so that it would fail to see wifi is on. Since I honestly don't know what signing it is, perhaps this is best left out of my hands.
I got it to work by switching back and forth between it and other apps. Now it has been working every time i launch it.

Ok, I have been able to active Wifi while Sprint TV is running, but it still doesn't get a channel listing.
sprint tv started working for me tonight over 3G. No idea why. Only show I was able to watch was The View. Go figure.

i read somewhere that you needed to get the TV widget on your screen also
even with that i couldnt get it to work ... so after several frustrating reboots
I FINALLY GOT A LISTING!!
at first, it was telling me that i needed to subscribe to every damn channel i tried to watch
but when i went to the subscriptions menu, i saw that i was already subscribed to everything
some more reboots later everything loaded and i could watch channels
now the whole Wifi thing could probably get fixed by some baksmali/smali edits ... im still trying to get a grasp on how to do this so cant help with that yet :\
My tv app works over 3g now.
My tv started working once i hit 3g in my area no reboot
mines working also
mine just started worrking all of sudden too ! so I installed on my wifes mt3g also worked after a while by itself ?! I had widget on at that time anyways if you dont get it to work try again its really well worth it !
cm 4.1.11.1
no theme
to people who got this working, are yall on 3G?
Yup it looks like you have to be on 3G for the TV app to work.

AH GRR! that is lame.. ya are so lucky!
Ive been able to stream over Edge. I dont have 3g in my area yet. I also had issues at first with anything loading but after waiting like everyone else i got listings and eventually i was able to watch the office on edge. Def not worth the wait but progress.

Has anyone been able to successfully bypass the the verizon firewalls and been able to have the nfl .apk app to work on the captivate or vibrant?
I downloaded it after using market access to emulate verizon. It installed but just hung on the initial load screen when opened up. I really wanted it too!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
I want this too!!
The guys in the nexus forum have been working on this for a while. He finally thought he had gotten passed it, and posted the apk on a different forum. Someone posted the apk on twitter and verizon caught wind of it and sent him a C&D letter. Plus cracking the apk is one thing, but trying to crack vcast is not going to happen. Looks like we are stuck the the espn apk.
Does anyone have a happy alternative to our dilema, other than ESPN's Score Center? It rocked on the iphone, a little too laggy on android. Maybe a good raido app that streams NFL games? Im in Tennessee, and im trying to get my Chicago Bears games. Please, someone help!
i wouldnt think it would be that hard to say get the apk off of the fascinate and then emulate whatever the communications between the phone and verizons server is.........pretty much spoofing verizons server for the app into thinking that its a verzion branded android device and therefor allowing any phone to access it...... of course if it was that easy it would already be done lol.
Looks like they figured it out over in the evo 4g section!!! Only works on wifi for us currently, make sure to reboot your phone after you install.

I tested it. Cannot get it to work over 3G or Wifi. It just sits there and loads forever.
Try rebooting. On my G1 it works over both, but on my gf's captivate it only works on wifi.
i downloaded it, ran droidexplorer to install it and it works flawlessly over wifi. However 3g does not work.
Reboot your phone if it just loads forever
This is amazing....too bad it doesn't work for me on 3G, would love to watch the noon games while i am tailgating on Sunday...
try this out
Hi I am on att using captivate, I just installed this app today and was only able to connect thru wifi as well. I had to get some stuff done round the house and so I turned off my wifi while the NFL app was still running and to my surprise the app still worked and appears to be using my 3G connection.
Works on 3g for me
Yeah I actually downloaded an unlocked apk file at droidforums.net. It is working great over 3g as well for me as of right now on my Captivate.
I however cannot post the link but I will post the apk file.
Also, I'm not sure if it matters but I did have it running first with my wifi on and then I turned it off to test it on 3g. They also have an unlocker tool on that website but I didn't have to use it. Hope it works for you guys.
EDIT: By the way, when you download this through your phone, use Astro or some other file manager to rename it to an .apk file.
NFL Verizon used to work on wireless now not working
Anybody still using this? Even though the app used to run on wireless (3g used to give me some error) after the season got kicked off for real I got a message that I wasn't a Verizon customer. The live streaming never worked, but the app and some of the videos did. I'm running SRE v1.2.2.a (which I know I have to update) but it did work before....anyone else have any luck?
***I must not have been logged in before because I didn't see the zip file above my post last time I saw it, I'll give that one a go***
Worked for me just fine on wifi last night.
still doesn't work on 3g...but
it worked on wifi and I was streaming the NFL channel. It seemed to keep going after I ditched the wifi and was just on 3g, but it won't fire if I just open it up on 3g....
one interesting thing I noted yesterday is that when I turn Mobile AP on and connect my roommate's Vibrant on T-Mo it worked fine, which tells me the app itself is what blocks it from working over 3G vs something like blacklisting the IP's from AT&T, T-Mo, and Sprint...
yeah I mean the only way I get it to work on 3g is if I start it on wireless and then turn wireless off, so there is a check somewhere. Wonder if the app could be faked into thinking it was on wireless or something like that. Anybody have this working on 3g straight from the get go? I get "cannot connect to NFL Mobile. please establish a connection and try again"

Started out fine but I had issues with audio and video sync (granted I only tried one program, Dexter S01E01, but had to do it multiple times as it hung up buffering three times). I was using my bluetooth headphones (RocketFish); perhaps that pooched it.
I want it to work so I will wait a little while before purchasing the pro version but it certainly will make the treadmill more interesting. My wifi signal was strong (sitting three feet from router/access point) and my cable ISP connection is very, very good. So it probably was all these G-Tablet folks hitting the Megaload servers.

Has anyone upgraded to the premium version?
Just wondering... I was testing it out and got a message regarding having to upgrade to a premium account in order to watch more than 72 consecutive minutes. The premium doesn't come cheap and appears to stream possible pirated copies of shows?? Just wondering what the fallout of subscribing to this type of service might be.
Thanks in advance for feedback.
PS: I have had some synch issues but the video quality had been good and fits the gtab well.

Hi,
The aplication does not require a subscription.
Megavideo links can be played 72 min, and after you have to wait 30 min for watching more if you are not premium of megavideo. This is the way that megavideo works.
You can use Karambavidz and Frogmovz links without time limitation. You dont need any kind of subscription for using this aplication properly.
and version 2.4.2 is out now, check the improvements ^^
I can confirm working and streaming well on the paid version. Plays mainly from megavideo servers but has two other servers to get past megavideo limitations
Running vegan 5.1
I bought this too. I think it works very well. I have been buying too much stuff on the web market
are any of the videos working for anyone? every video i've tried just gives me a blank screen. on the latest version.
Same here, downloaded the free version to test out and just get a black screen...
I've tried family guy and breaking bad both episode 1 and both work for me on the latest lite version.

TV Streams uses Flash -- as does MegaVideo, Karamvideo, Frogvideo (the sites it aggregates from)
So you'll definitely need Flash working properly.
Try going to a Flash-heavy site and making sure it works properly there first. You may need to enable plug-ins from within your browser as well (You can do this via the "about:debug" page -- just type it into the browser and go. Bring up the settings and make sure you turn on plug-ins.)
The app is fantastic - best $4 I've spent recently...
Good Luck...
Its weird. I tried the lite version a few weeks ago when I was running tent lite and it worked fine. Now I'm runnung vegan 5.1.1 and the videos start audio only with a black screen and then stop after a few seconds. I did check flash by going to natgeo in the browser and watching a video.
Any thoughts?

So I know this has been an issue for others in the past, but everything I've tried hasn't seemed to work. Every time I load up a video on Youtube, it seems like it's about to start but then says "Connection to Server Lost. Tap to Try again". This only happens when I'm not on WiFi though. I've tried restarting the phone, uninstalling all updates, clearing app data and cache, and none of that seems to work. I also don't have an AdBlocker so I know that isn't the issue. Everything else works when I'm not on WiFi though.
Any solutions? I would greatly appreciate it.
I apologize for the bump but is no one else experiencing this issue? My friend also had it happen to him after updating to the most recent OTA. So far it hasn't seemed to be fixed.
Had it happen before update but haven't tested since update. Will check it out tomorrow when I'm out. Service where I live is terrible so can't really test now.

Hmm, alright. I'll probably need to know if others that are on stock and running the latest firmware are running into the same issue. Because it seems likely that the update is the reason.
I'm stock rooted running the latest firmware and my YouTube seems to be working fine on both wifi and 3g. No issues so far and I've watched quite a few videos the last couple of days. I'll let you know if anything changes though.
Okay well I'm getting extremely annoyed here. The problem temporarily resolved itself for a few days but now it's back and now I can't even watch youtube videos on any Internet browser. It just says "sorry. This video cannot be played." it's clear this isn't an app issue, but what the heck is causing this? I should be able to watch a damn youtube video.

At this point, I'm assuming it has to do with the combination of Sprint's towers and the latest update (since that's when it began to happen). If you do factory reset your phone, please tell me if it begins to work for you.

Sadly no. It's so strange though, sometimes I can see the video as if it knows it should be loading the video, but then decides to give me an error one second before it actually starts. It's almost like it's being blocked.
Haven't been able to get mine to work with CDMA only, either.
I have tried everything and never managed to get a video to load, ever, while not on WiFi since I got my M8.

I honestly believe it is Sprint's doing, since I remember the videos being unwatchably bad quality back on my stock EVO 3D, if they would load at all, but after rooting it and removing the sprint proxy that suddenly cleared up, both the glitchy nature and quality. Probably use some kind of broken proxy to reduce bandwidth used by Youtube.

It has been happening with my phone as well. Works occasionally, but it's not just youtube, it's pandora, podcats, and even wshh. The problem has been going on since the update. I did speak with someone at Sprint and it was the usual "turn this off, turn that on, enter this." It worked but than went out again. Phone is brand new and 13 days old. Hope somebody can figure this out before i exchange it.
