Sky Go for O2X? - LG Optimus 2x

Anyone on here trying to get Sky Go working on their 2X?
I am running CM7 and using the modified .apk in the main thread, have managed to get around the "Unsupported device" problem but can't get any channels to play.
I'm not a techy so hoping someone else with a 2X is working on a crack / hack.

Looks like its just me then

Someone has managed to run on dual sky go?

I think it's working only on Samsung smartphone for obvious marketing agreements ... The latest Sky decoder are branded Samsung just ...

NBA League pass outside of USA

Hi, I have the NBA League Pass Application on my G1, but becasue i live in Canada, all the games are blacked out for me (games are restricted to US- viewrs only). So i was wondering if there is a way to 'trick' the app into thinking im in the US? Tried using MarketEnabler app to fake the network i am on (used TMOBILE, bit no luck so far).
Any ideas?
Same
Ha. I tried the same exact thing. Haven't tested it out yet. I wish someone would port "fakelocation" for iPhone to Android. THAT is what we need. Did you figure out a workaround yet?
bump !
I will donate anything for this
i cant beleive a geolocation faker isnt made for android yet the most open OS :S
and iphone has one
Sameeee!
I live in Australia, if only we could get something for it to work!
Try Market Access Apk.

3d games on G Tab

I've done all the market hacks and tried all the tricks but im wondering why most of the actual 3d games i want to get to show off the muscle that this great little tegra 2 tablet can flex.
it seems like the games i want on here right now "pocket legend" and "rocket bunnies" don't show up in the market and I was looking forward to "dungeon defenders"
I think there needs to be a big push of actually finding a way to get the full market that my Nexus One gets...
This is mostly why i bought the tablet, and thanks to all the great devs here we've been able to get "almost" everything working (Thanks roebeet, et all)
maybe we can make a nice thread with some different market fingerprints and post market results? (or any other suggestions)
I am currently running the latest Vegantab beta4 fyi.

Well, as the guy who has tried all the market fingerprints and build.prop stuff and wrote the thread on the "full" market fix, I can tell you with some confidence that Pocket Legends and some of the other 3d games are a known issue - I have tried changing every build.prop setting to match that of my Nexus One (which finds those apps with no problem), and there are still a handful of 3d games that will not show up. I have also found that if you change too many of the settings in build.prop, you will eventually bootloop your G Tablet because Android itself gets confused about what it's running on.
You can find my notes on the subject in my posts on my thread in this forum on Full Market Fix.
In summary - the issue seems to be more than just using a different Market Fingerprint. That does not solve the problem, though it may make a few addition or a few less items show up. Right now, by most of my metrics, we have at least 95% of the items in Market showing up.
BTW, I have seen posts stating that the work around for Pocket Legends has been to download directly from their site, though I have not done so myself.
My understanding is that the CyanogenMod ROM for G Tablet does not require the Maket Fix and has no issues with missing items in Market because of the way the ROM image is built. I think the person to ask about this is bekriebel who built CyanogenMod for G Tablet - he can explain the concept of release-keys better than I can and how Market supports it out of the box on the CM ROM.
Unfortunately, it's a bit outside of my time availability right now to work much more on this, having already spent a day or more figuring out what I figured out. But please keep me in the loop if you figure anything else out!
I just thought it would be good to have a good constructive conversation about why else it might not be working... so the build.prop isnt the thing then.
its sad that 3d games are not showing up when this device was built for 3d gaming!
Pocket legends shows up on mine. got it installed...lemme try the other one..
EDIT: Strange they arent showing up anymore. when i was on Cyanogen 6.1 i Had them showing up. then again I didnt have the new market that looks like xbox live. strange...

this is what I'm refering to its so spotty. there is this great drawing app that i purchased that id love to use on the tab called "sketchbook mobile" but its not showing up for me either.
I know there have been lots of people working on it but it would be great if we could somehow compare market search results on some of them to find the best?
also if cyanogenmod has more working downloads is there anyway that the market from cyanogenmod can be rolled into Vegantab?
Dungeon Defenders is amazing its based on the unreal engine and really shows off this hardware.
If we are patient I am sure there will be many amazing games in the future for this CPU/chipset.
I had originally intended to only use the gtab until a good windows7 tab was released but after seeing Dungeon defenders on this system I seriously doubt any windows based tab will be able to come close to this tab for some time and I am sure the cost of a system like that will be much higher.
U need to check out this game to understand what I mean.

Agreed, DD plays perfectly on the gtab. Hopefully this is just the beginning of things to come once Honeycomb is in place and developers start making apps with tablets in mind.

Netflix App

Just posted from a reliable source. I got it installed and it came up to the logon screen. Did not have a Netflix account to test further. Let me know how it works.
Update: It has been posted you can log in but can not stream live movies. Sorry folks
http://db.tt/XeibZ5U
interface works, i got an error when trying to play. "Sorry we could not reach the netflix service" It might be a bandwidth issue, I'm tethered to T-Mobile 3g.
I was on wifi, streams fine on ps3, same error for me.

stolen from a system dump? (if its even the same one)
PS quote from that page
"Brian 2 hours ago in reply to imperalix
You're missing the drm libraries. Maybe some smart dev can pull them from the system dump and get them working. Although thats exactly why netflix wont be out on the android market... hehe"
Got pretty excited earlier when I could sign in and see everything, then bummed when I couldn't watch anything. :-(
Damn drm.
So close. When trying to play a movie I get an error that Netflix service can't be reached.
I read that it was only unlocked for certain processors... I hope the Tegra will be on that list soon....
netflix is working with nvidia for tegra chips...but i am sure the devs can get this to work, i have tried it on my HTC incredible...same error!
snapdragon processors only rightnow i do believe
Is it possible that the app has a url or something that it's supposed to connect to for streaming, and since there are technically no android phones out that should actively be running this app, that maybe that url is not actively operating yet, and that after the LG becomes available, it may simply start working?
Just a thought...
MC
it's a DRM issue. Only certain chips have the appropriate DRM baked into them, which is why there are issues connecting to the streams. Unfortunately due to this limitation, I don't really see a decent workaround for getting streaming to work.
Hopefully someone on XDA can prove me wrong. I know both iOS and Microsoft have built themselves up around streamlining these DRM packages in with their software, but due to android's frequent updates and lack of included DRM integration with the OS at the 2.1/2.2 time, Netflix had to use alternate means of distributing to android. By the time Ice Cream Sandwich rolls around google should be on the ball with this stuff.
We'll see, though.

[Q] Running Madden NFL 12 on the LG 2x?

Hey all,
I have my LG Optimus 2X running with CyanogenMod 7 and I am perfectly happy with my device. A few days ago I wanted to buy Madden NFL 12. I did not find it in the Market. So I went to the NFL Homepage and clicked "buy now". Then the market opened and said that the game is not available in my country. I used the Market Enabler to fake my provider to Verizon. After that the Market gave me a message that this game is not compatible with my device. I also tried to mess around with the LCD Density but that did not help. After some further research it seems that the game is not compatible with the Tegra 2 platform at all! I really can't imagine that this game won't run on my LG Optimus 2x. So my question is: Is there maybe a way to get it running on my device? Maybe a modification in the build.prop? I have no idea why the game should not be compatible with the Optimus 2x.
Thanks in advance!
Using a bastardized version of Topogigi, it shows up fine in the market here, and I get to the point where I can click "Accept & Buy" (which I'm not going to do.)
Two alternatives I guess.
Download topogigi and compare the build.prop with yours.
or
Install another ROM, download and install, backup with TB, go back to CM and restore.
Thank you very much.
I used adb push to place the build.prop of the mentioned ROM to the CM7 Nightly I am currently running. After the reboot there was no connection to my carrier but the wireless LAN worked. It also showed Madden NFL 12 in the Market. I could buy, download, install AND play it! Nice. I switched back to the original build.prop and the game still works.
Again, thanks for the hint with the ROM. I'll have a closer look at the build.prop files at the weekend. Hopefully I find the difference that causes this.
This "method" should work with the 9mm game right? Because I'm running stock G2x and it says incompatible with device.. and I mean, come on, you know? I really don't know what other rom would be compatible because I don't like any of rom in that section, all buggy and all.. cm too.. I mean, stop with the nightlies and release stuff that work.. since there's a team with individual devices, let them be the "nightly" testers.. that's why stock and rooted is always the best.. anyways, sorry.. carried on out of nowhere..

Free 3D games on LG Smart World

I was sitting here waiting patiently at the doctors office with a friend and decided to go on smart world and see what was available. Well if you register your device in canada they have a TON of 3D games available for download, soiderman, avatar, nova 2, assassins creed... problem is everytime i try to download one it says service not available all other non 3D downloads work though, i have tried all carriers and still no luck. Was wondering if someone else could try this out and tell me if you are able to download because i am wondering if its because i am going through att data network (no wifi here) going to try when i get home. If that doesn't work i am going to try routing my phone through a canadian proxy see if that works because if you register in the states the games are 5 bucks. Can anyone get these downloaded? If you do can you post a zip with the apks? Thanks
Another thought is maybe make a nandroid backup, flash an o3d rom and try downloading... i dunno, i am determined to get these games for free if i can. Sucks... other countries have all the fun...
Didn't even think about the fact smart world uses the lg drm service... maybe an overseas drm on a thrill rom will do the trick... welp i got work to do when i get home...
Did it work over wifi?? I'm having the same issue I can download everything else but not the 3d games. Oh and i'm running on your slim ROM and loving it!! Can't wait to see what the update is. I would love to see the face unlock that ics has!!! Have no idea if its possible but would be awesome!!!

I got the Canadian Optimus 3d, and the games won't download. What is going on.?
I think maybe it is smart world then... archersoft and wikitude still download. Wonder if they are for some reason waiting for the gb release... i dunno I'm looking into it.
when and if you get those games, don't forget to add them on your roms
Just checked again and i'm registered in Canada and the games are no longer free!!! Oh well
