[APP] TWiT for WP7 - Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games

As a huge fan of TWiT, I wanted my own Audio-only App for on the go. I received permission from OMGChad to use the Logo/Title.
Hopefully others will like it, if not, it's really for me in the end.
Waiting for acceptance in the Marketplace still...

Nice App, waiting for it on the marketplace

I'm actually working on an awesome Metro design for a TWiT app, I was going to contact the guy that makes the other one, but if you'd like some help email me at [email protected] and I'll send you some images

Nice work, looking forward to it, how difficult would it be to create an HTML5 video stream version ?
Will be be free and ad-free ?

The App is free and ad-free, except for when you listen to the audio feed, which most of the time the screen will be off, as it is just audio being streamed.
As for HTML5 Video Stream, for the episodes it can be done and a small version of it has been put in our Beta. Sometimes has issues as we have to scrape the video URL's from a clunky and not-so-proper XML File.

[APP] - Tv.com

Just downloaded a new App from the market called Tv.com... For those missing the Sprint TV app, this is a very good replacement... and it is free!
Be sure to check it out...
Yup, very good app. I'm on edge and the videos still load pretty quick. Only downside is it's a cbs app so channel listing is rather limited.
Great start! I wish it wasn't just clips of Showtime shows. Hope more gets added.
I searched tv.com but couldnt find anything
Is it a free or paid app?

its free but with 2 major downfalls..
1 every shows is made into 1-2 minute clips which is annoying as hell to watch.
2. it does not make use of the full screen its like youyube used to be when you were not on wifi
Very nice. The resolution is way better than the Sprint TV app, sound quality is good, and I'm not seeing skips or pixelations.
Now if only the other networks would work on their offerings plus have Netflix streaming... oh to dream...

Heytell works really well. Its similar to TIKL but can be used across phone platforms.
Soundhound works much better than shazam.
i've been trying to find a file sharing program similar to websharing that you have listed but the exact opposite. i want to view files on my pc with my phone ive tried all with no luck that i could find

I'm not sure dropbox can stream videos. That's the main thing I would like to use. I've tried orb and it would setup correctly but the phone wouldnt see it
Spiderman HD and Stunt Jet Cars are two best games I played so far and they play and look more like PS2 games.
Oh and NewsRoom is the app that I use the most.You can read tech and other news feeds real eazy.

I haven't gotten it to work yet, but I think that VLC has some promise for streaming media.
DropBox is great for just sharing files.
As far as other stuff I've found...
If you are an MMO junkie, there is Pocket Legends of course to get your mobile fix. But to check in with your friends, Ventriloid (free Ventrilo client) is a MUST have.
Until Skype gets their act together, check out ooVoo - does great video chat and has a desktop client! The paid version lets you do up to 6 way video conferences.
PLEASE help me find these games

You really shouldn't mention being able to get apps for free. A paid app is paid to compensate the developer and even if you aren't directly to the pirated app you are supporting it which goes against everything these forums stand for.

A little off topic, but to address flawlessbmxr's problem with orb... of course assuming everthing works except for the actual streaming.

To get orb to work over 3g (should already work over wifi) you will need to edit your RTSP Proxy Address one of two ways...
The first way requires that you know your MSL code for your phone... Enter ##DATA# into your dialer and you will be taken to a hidden menu, from there go in to Multimedia (or 'Edit->Others->Multimedia' if your on DK28 (or other Froyo)) and change the RTSP Address to 0.0.0.0
The second way requires that you have LauncherPro, ADW Ex (newest regular ADW might work too), or Any Cut installed on your phone. Just add a shortcut to one of your home screens and choose 'Activities->com.android.hiddenmenu->Multimedia(.Multimedia_Edit)' (as listed in DK28, may be slightly different in DI18)and then change your address as above. If your running ADW, you may need to choose Custom Shortcut, and click on Pick an activity to create the shortcut.

I've been using droidstreamer for a little over a week now. It does NOT have many vids. But, it does have full length movies and tv shows for streaming. It worked in 3g and 4g for me. And it's free . I usually just download shows and movies to my sd card and play through my video player though.

Netflix apk

I found the Netflix apk that leaked today. I am in no way a dev, just a very thankful direction follower. The app functions beautifully, (recently watched, instant que, browse) the only thing not working is the most important streaming. It attempts then pulls error (1005) can not connect to server. Hopefully there is a work around. http://lts.cr/TY5, thanks to phandroid for the link.

i have been waiting for a dam netflix app forever.....too bad the only thing i need it to do it doesnt do...ha
anyway just wanted to say PLEASE someone get this to work....
netflix was the ONLY thing i liked more about wp7....wp7 sucks otherwise

Completely agree.
Sent from my T-Mobile G1 using XDA Premium App
It's in the .so library file or one of the libraries not included in the dump. Without them or the ability to decompile the one in the apk, we're out of luck.
so is there any hope....its funny that its the best thing about wp7 tho haha...
Well, if this apk can't be made functional, we will just have to wait for an official android app.

But the PlayOn app requires you to pay for their services on top of having a Netflix acct. So not worth it in my opinion. Though I did download and try it for the trial period. Was very cool. But I stand by my feelings on the matter. =p

The PlayOn app, IMHO, is a much better app for now and to replace the Netflix app when and if it works for all android phones. I am using PlayOn, I can watch Netflix, HULU, all sorts of other stuff and stream whatever is on my PC at home. This is great when I record a show on my PC, it is available for me to watch. I bought the lifetime membership for $80. I think that is cheap when compared to the access and entertainment I get in return. Not to mention that your carrier will not be happy with the amount of data used to watch movies. I have an "unlimited" plan and my data rate has been limited due to the carrier feeling I use too much. So after a few movies the app is worthless as it will not stream well and always buffer if your carrier is unhappy with your usage. This happened to me on WP7 and with playon on android. Why any company would put the time and effort into developing something that can't be used is beyond me. Wifi is jot an issue however, if I am able to connect to wifi I am usually somewhere I would have my laptop. Then why would I watch a Netflix movie on my phone?
found a solution...not really
my solution is to dual boot android and wp7....ha....im only using wp7 for the netflix app and it only took like a half hr to set everything up....and it was easy to do with the videos and such......yay netflix on my hd2 and it works way faster than streaming online websites.....you could tell i really wanted netflix to work.....and now i have dual boot also....so win win i guess.....i love this phone

podcast app?

what podcast app do you guys use? im looking for a automatic downloader, like itunes.
10 characters
You could use Juice and have it download podcasts into a folder that Audiogalaxy, subsonic, or google music beta is watching and then just listen to them as they download and appear automatically.
Google listen works great for me.

<- i've been using BeyondPod for the last year. Downloads podcasts and can sync with google reader. Free trial on the market. 6.99 for license.
+1 for beyondpod. Used it for 2 yrs almost. Does a great job with scheduling podcast refresh and downloads
im liking tunein alot! you can add preset podcast channels online and access your list on the xoom.

Yeah same here, really like it.
What does Dogcatcher and BeyondPod offer that Google Listen doesn't? I've started listening to podcasts a lot and curious if I should try these other apps.
Question: Any of these allow you to mark for offline listening/watching? Sort of like a..."Download now" button? Rather stream it...
doggcatcher is by far the most feature rich of the apps. i listen to at least 40 weekly podcasts (long commute, lots of driving for work) and I have tried all of the major apps. It even has a honeycomb layout (although that needs polishing). As far as the distinctions, it allows you to set both universal and podcast specific settings as far as autodownloads, listing, delete policies, etc. Its podcast search features are also outstanding. Another feature I use its backup and import/export abilities which means I can keep my settings between rom flashes, devices, etc... I could go on...
I encourage the other poster who said he was building his own (something I did a while back, but abandoned) to keep pushing the improvement. Things that would be cool are cloudsync (just track progress, read/unread, etc), better tablet layout, and better widgets.
but simple answer to OP: doggcatcher

Just purchased DoggCatcher, and I must say. WOW.
Worth every penny, Kind of a turn off that there wasn't a lite version that I could test with, but you know..15min window. but everyone reading this...believe me....WORTH IT 100%.
Thank you diaa08 for recommending this application. I am now using it on my Tablet as well as my Phone. ;-)

Make an account using a proxy, after that you can just use google music freely. Anyone can share the new google music apk? I heard it's already available on the market but since we are from Europe it doesn't show up for us.
probably in about 2 years
Not sure on that one. I'm really liking where Google is going with their ecosystem. I didn't expect their store to have this many albums I needed (still looking and buying ) since I don't have mainstream musical tastes. I guess I'm gonna be upgrading to another android phone soon.

Do you still have to upload ur music via music manager? Or does the music manager simply compare your songs to those in its server and comprise your Google music collection based on the songs that match its database? Waiting days to upload thousands of songs just doesn't cut it.

Google would have been much better served to come out with something more along the lines of iTunes, a program you install on your computer and tell it what folder to watch for your music and a few minutes later, there is your 10k song library! Not to mention the stupid music manager issues. The very first time I installed Google Music to my computer I got some stupid "can only use 3 accounts on this machine" error and I couldn't upload my music until I found a workaround.....change the Mac address of my ethernet card. That's pretty weak. I think Google missed the boat with this one.
how fast does the streaming work on verizon's 3g? any hiccups in loading?
Overall, it's a great service. But Google made some mistakes,
1) No matching service.
2) Should have gone at least 25k songs to match iTunes match.
3) Not available outside the U.S.
4) Can't buy songs from your phone... yet.
The sharing and independent artists features are impressive though. And best feature of all.. IT'S FREE.
So now that this is released does anybody know if they will ever have an easy sync like iPhone and iTunes for our Android phones?
Songs you purchase from google don't count towards the 20k song limit. So, that really isn't much of an issue, IMO.
I love how they do carrier billing for tmobile, too. Guess it will come to other carriers soon.

1) a one-time issue when first uploading and only IF you own a lot of music. Just leave PC on overnight once and you're good.
2) iTunes cloud isn't free and then it still eats up all your local storage.
3) Will be soon. Plus you can use a proxy to get around it.
4) New market is being delivered as we speak. Not an issue, just takes a few days to push the app out to 100million+ users with varying phones and networks.
The sharing, artists, g+, is all awesome.
My only issue is that android app is still a little cumbersome and has an occasional issue with shuffle feature and replaying of same song. lol.
