[REQ] real XM stream app. Not att one

Hey ive been searching around and haven't found anything close to what im looking for. Basicly i just want an app to stream XM sat radio that just uses data and dosen't charge for anything else.
I have an XM account so yeah thats not an issue.
*I did notice a old xm app but it was from late 2006 i think so it didnt seem like it would work to well with the current set up, or if it will even run at all.*

Go to http://www.musicdock.com on your phone, then enter in your XM info and you're good to go!

I don't have XM. But I use SelectRadio for Sirius. It's not free but it's great. The program streams all XM channels, too. It saves your login info so you just click a channel and go.
Now, as far as security goes, I don't know what's happening inside the program. For instance, I'm not sure how SelectRadio bypasses the captcha image that I have to enter with SiriusWM5 or when I stream online.

Technically if you have sirius you now have xm. Or at least in the near future you will. They are now the same company.
http://www.xstreamxm.com/mobile/ also works for mobile xm. I liked it better than musicdock

I'd forgotten about that site, thanks!

you might wanna take a look at this thread over and ppcgeek i've been using this with my xm online radio account it works pretty well
i'm using it on my wizard but i think they have fixed it to work on vga screens
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=26310

That's weird, I logged in at xstreamxm, selected the 80's, it loaded up the stream that played "We're sorry, the XM Radio Online Channel you requested is not available, please log out and try again".

thanks ill try it when i get back

Guys you are making this too long and difficult.

I use it on my 6800 to listen to my XM radio. It works fine.
It's worth a shot... I don't know if you will have issues with it because we are now on VGA screens and the 6800 is QVGA.
It's worth a try though, supposedly according to his post it DOES work.

he needs to fix his xml file but it seems to be a lot lighter then the one i listed from ppcgeeks
this newer app will probably be better for my device (wizard) cuz i don't have as much on board memory as you raphael guys

New Media Hub App from Epic 4g

Works with the Captivate.

You got a link for the app so other people can try?

Working for anyone?

Yeah works great

What is the differnce between the Epic MH and the Captivates MH?

The Epic media hub works lol.

It's a nice app. Very fast and video quality is awesome. If the price of renting movies and tv shows was $1 like Redbox I could actually see myself using this sometimes.

How do you insall it if you do not mind me asking?

Seeing as how you are brand new I will help you out.
Download the file and transfer it to your phone. Download apps installer or some other file manager from the market, most require your phone to be rooted. Click on the file and install.
Next time though make sure you read around the forum as it is discussed in lots of places how to install apk files.

The app looks nice, but who is going to pay $3 for one episode of a tv show? If Samsung is going to play in this space they better get the cost down or everyone is going to pass them buy.
Personally, I don't even like paying $1 for something i can transfer from my DVR.

so.... unsupported file type?
I downloaded Iron Man from the media hub and my captivate says "device does not support requested file type" has anyone else had an issue with this?

Mine won't play the picture. Frustrating

No need to root your phone. You just need to sideload the apk.
Here's some links on how to do that

Awesome! Too bad it's becoming something I might not ever use. Still wanted to say thanks for sharing this.

Wouldn't you need to root the phone as there is already a Media Hub app on /system?

Bah - my brother has the Epic and was able to rent/dl movies from it.
Of course the Captivate doesn't work at all. Any word from Samsung if they are currently working on a fix? Or is this yet another lockdown from AT&T to prevent us from using it and just missed the "to be removed" on the ol' checklist?

works great. The TV section is lacking but the Movie selection is quite impressive.

Are you saying that you're able to watch movies?

Mine just shows a black screen too

[Q] Anyone have the new 2.2 media hub apk?

When I first flashed stock 2.2 the media hub was working. I was able to preview movies and rent them via samsung. I flashed cognition and installed the apk from his bloatware pack and no dice. Its back to not working anymore. I assume that media hub version on 2.2 is different than 2.1. Does anyone have the apk for media hub from froyo?

http://www.ponack.net/designgears/removed-apps-froyo/

Videos still won't work on Media Hub on captivate. The Vibrant folks got an OTA update to assist with DRMd content. We need that, methinks.

The HD video content is amazing on the captivate screen. It actually made me want to pay their high prices..... So far, I have to say the content is surprisingly there in volume.

What is different from the Media hub app in Froyo? Or is this the same and people are putting this on Eclair?

You mean, you guys got it to work after downloading a video? It works only for trailers for me.

Have not actually purchased a movie yet. I didnt realize it quit working after that.

edit: had the same problem at first, worked for trailers, downloaded fine, didn't play movie.
then I thought what off this is an attempt by att to sell the data plan? I turned off wifi and on edge it acquired the license. confirmed playing movies
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using Tapatalk

Wonder why it would need to authenticate?......sometimes I hate AT&T.

well the license is definitely a samsung thing and has to do with weather you rent or buy the movie so it can be deactivated after 24 when you rent it. I don't know of a reason to only allow the license over cellular, other than to maybe verify with att that you are using a galaxy s device and haven't ported the apk over to another device. or maybe att gets a piece of the pie, and using there network helps them tally it all up.
also you know how att likes to tell you if you use x feature on a phone you purchase we want to add this to your bill. for instance att has data plans that allow tethering that are very expensive, if don't know if they force these plans on phones that support tethering, as far as I know you can't buy such a phone from att. also if you have a smart phone you cant exclude data from your plan unless you have never bought a smartphone from att and you buy the phone outright and make sure smartphone exclusion is on you're plan. just like the unlimited data plan once you get rid of smartphone exclusion you can't get it back as fast as I know, and the network detects the device you are using.
just there way of saying if you want the service you gotta pay us even if we have nothing to do with the service I are getting. its not right but that's what they can do if you sign a contract.
we won't know if its att specific unless we go over to another forum and see what the epic guy are talking about.

Hmm, why wont media hub work for me? All stock, just rooted and when i try to open it it just says "no update now, try again later". Any ideas?

After downloading with wifi on, turn it off to aquire licenseing, then it will play with the wifi off.

AT&T uverse app...

Hello, I posted in the Vidrant but no luck... I have Uverse from AT&T and my brothers iphone has a app that controls the DVR I just got my tv guide from them and its showing a app for the captivate... Would love to have this app. Trying to find out if the app is out and if some one could post the apk.
Thank you for your help with this!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

Hey, I work for AT&T and as of yet, no U-Verse app for us androidians. Only iPhone and Blackberry at this time. I'm told it is in the works.

Ok Thank you
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

I am kind of put off that there's an app for the Windows 7 ATT phone that isn't even out yet. The Android version has been "in the works" for a while now.

The U-verse app is available for the Captivate.
http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/att-expands-u-verse-mobile-to-android-devices-105186044.html

Works for more then just the captivate. HTC incredible and others work too. Get the apk at irtehun.net if u don't have ATT
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using Tapatalk

Very cool. Very easy to navigate and see what is on.

APK
Attached is the apk but read the press release posted a few posts up as it only works on certain devices right now according to the press release.

Going to try this on my vibrant , will post results.
EDIT: Works!!!!!

I just d/l it in market. Does anyone know if it currently works without having u-verse at home? I thought i read for win phone 7 that u wouldnt have to pay for it if u already had it at home would be included.
Im all for paying just didnt see anything on account management for it.

What are you going to use it for if you don't have u-verse service?

I can confirm that this works on an EVO and Incredible.

They said on windows phone 7 it would beable to d/l movies to watch and said would be free if u were a u-verse home user. Like as in u could subscribe to the mobile service to watch movies from it like ondemand

I read that where Windows Phone 7 is concerned that if you don't currently have U-Verse service at home you'd be able to pay some sort of fee and use the limited version of it on your phone. But thats all that was said about it. We can assume this might be something exclusive to WP7 as it appears that AT&T is putting a lot of weight behind the platform.
As far as the Android version, I have U-Verse, and have yet to find any shows or movies that I'm allowed to download to my phone for later viewing. It first requires activation of the service via "manage account", which I did after getting errors the first few times about their systems not being ready or whatever. Then when it worked, I went into my DVR and could download NONE of the programs I have recorded. Apparently downloading is limited to a certain selection of programs. Unfortunately theres no information about what shows, channels, etc can do this.

UPDATE: Ok...so theres very few shows that are available for download. Most of them are Disney Channel stuff, few Animal Planet/TLC/Discovery Channel shows, some ABC stuff.
From ATT Uverse on Facebook:
If you click on the Library tab on the app, you should be able to see what shows are available. That said, we're working on getting more and more programming available on the app. Thanks!

Download content is only available if you have the U300 package. 100 and 200 are not able to see anything beyond their DVR content.

Works great. Glad to see AT&T is supporting Android a little bit.

The app works MUCH better than the web page on the captivate. As for the downloadable content, until they get stuff on there that is actually interesting, I'm certainly not upping my uverse package to the U300.
I do hope that they get it to the point where I can stream my DVR recordings to my phone. Now THAT would be sweet!
Another bonus, a friend has the U300 package. He let me use his account login info to watch the downloadable videos as needed. NICE

I talked to a main att guy over all the stores where i live, and he said that the mobile service is strictly for Windows phone 7 its exclusive right now that u dont need home u verse for it and u can d/l stuff from web with it only on wifi though. and that if u have u verse at home its free and of course can access all that stuff to.
All other phones including iphone will only beable to use app if you are a home u verse user no mobile service for any of those. Windows phone 7 comes with it in a tile and its a feature to enable to d/l content from att's u-verse, i guess on demand stuff.

i tried to download and use this on my samsung moment with no luck

Well, the Skype file is too large to load on here. It's the 3G version that has been floating around on other forms. I'm using it now and it works really well connected to my EVO. Also the NHL works well for live streams and videos full screen. PM if you need Skype apk and I'll email it to you.

Have you tried downloading spare parts from the market and disabling compatibility mode?

Good look. I forgot to mention that. I did that first before I installed the others. Make sure you get spare parts and uncheck compatibility mode.

oh wow i cant believe i never thought of that lol

No video and calls work over 3G and WIFI. The one from the market doesn't work over 3G. Not a big deal for some. I"m subscribed though, 30 a year unlimited calling. Saves me minutes to landlines.

I would suggest you take down root explorer, as its not free and considered warez.
