Rogers mobiTv on my Cingular 8525 - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

Hi everybody,
I have my Cingular 8525 unlocked that I m currently using with Rogers. It's all set with MMS, email, and internet
The Cingular 8525 comes also with mobiTv but if I click on the prog it proposes me the mobitv service from USA by default.
There is no way so far that I can change the url by default, the program is in the Rom of the device and the only way I guess, will be to touch the register key of my Cingular 8525 .
I know that my device is not officially supported by Rogers but i m sure that we can find the way to make it happen
If anyone have an idea, may be a app that i can download from Rogers , or to give me the right url for this service from my device, let me know
Thank you in advance for your help

Nobody ?

Well, I'm a bit puzzled. According to MobiTV site it is only available in the US.
"Cingular customers: if you prefer, you may purchase MobiTV directly from your MediaNet device menu by selecting Entertainment / More Sites / MobiTV.
Product Features
Channels you know from home like ABC News Now, CSPAN, and FOX Sports (click here for the full channel lineup)
High quality video
Graphical channel guide with programming information
Full screen viewing option
Touchscreen and 5-way navigation
Note: Service available in U.S. only. Data charges apply. We strongly recommend you have an unlimited data plan with your carrier before buying MobiTV.

As it costs $9.99 / month, I'm sure they give you a programme download which would replace the one you have IF it works elsewhere.

I believe Handango or another major PPC software vendor sold these, and billed you directly. This was before but you could try.

Not allowed in Canada...

The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) -- our equivalent of the US FCC -- does not allow the re-transmission of broadcast material by unlicenced carriers, so no MobiTV in Canada until the rules are changed (which I am sure will happen at some point in the future -- Canada usually follows the US' lead).

Not quite true you lot
I'm running my Softbank with ATT_MobiTv and ATT_XMRadio rom. It's only a 3 day trial but I get all the US channels A-Ok. Just don't see a way to switch to other networks/countries.
Mobitv is also available on Rogers. Mobitv is the technology used by Rogers for the streaming video applications.
You don't have to believe me just check the MobiTv website.
http://www.mobitv.com/channels/channels.php
A number of providers and channel listings there.
Now back to the original problem of changing channel lineups. Is it prgram based or a setting? Only the ATT_mobitv cab seems tobe out in the wild.

Thanks to everyboddy for your answers
For some reason i didnt recieve any notice for your replies
It seems that some guys succed to make it work
Actually pretty much all the services that Roger offer now, vison
, xm radio, mobitv etc.. seems to work on the tytn I. i havnt tried yet and i m looking for the the cab files if available?
the tytn II should come pretty soon at Rogers and i wonder if the video call will be unable and the apps for the tv , xm radio etc...\
just got the tytn I from rogers and install wm6 on it , just need to find some one who would like to help me to try the video call.. if their is any seeting to change for that ?
i got the Internet , mms working perfectly
Something else i need?
However my internet home page by defaut is from htc website , do anyone know the on for rogers and how to set it up by defaut?
thank you again

Make it simple: try to find a ROGERS ROM version of your Hermes and reflash it!

tried for weeks no chance, just took the official rom from htc and find the cab on this forum from rogers..
i keep looking , but thanks

v1605: vodafone live!

Um, I've had a search everywhere for this: can anyone get vodafone live! on their v1605? I was assured by VF CS at least twice that it 'worked fine' and 'mobile tv, no problem' on the device, but i'm thinking this might have been a cunning marketing ploy..
help gratefully appreciated..
I was told Voda CS that the handset isn't compatibale with Live. I've not tried accessing. What is the link? I've always had a shortcut on all my other phones.
You can access live and tv although it is not supported. First off you need the UA string of a device that does support live (i.e. Nokia N70) - this is not just "NokiaN70" - there is a whole load of other stuff as well. Then one needs to do what is listed in this thread re the connection/proxy
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=29595&highlight=gprs+always
Thanks very much mate: works a treat and I'm now watching mobile TV atop my shiny new v1605, huzzah!
Can you post the link you are using? I don't know anyone else with a Vodafone to get this... Thx
Any help using HTC TyTN with vodafone Spain???

Cingular Video on TyTn

Anybody get Cingular video working on the TyTn? I can get to the CV website but it won't play the videos. I loaded RealPlayer but it says that the files are unplayable. Any help is appreciated.
Can you please post the URL that you are going to?
I never got it to work (I gave up).
I'm using:
http://cingularvideo.cingular.com/msdp/?now=1163106550899
When I try to launch a video, i get prompted to download a video.ram file, which I do. That opens RealPlayer (which i installed), but that comes up with an error "Clip is not playable"
After extensive talks with Tech support it seems that the tytn and the 8525 are not going to have the Cingular video capability.
I have a Tytn on Cingular and I get it to play Cingular Video just fine. I'm just using their medianet settings from the 8125 tech support page, and using RealPlayer 1.1 to play the streams, works like a charm.
I was in New York last week and I was told the the Cingular version of the Hermes does not even have the two camara function, I was shown a picture of it in store and the video cam on the front is not there.
That is the reason wht this is not included in the rom.
He also gave me this link on a review, which also has a picture.

Did you ever encounter the problem where you download the video.ram and get a message the clip is unplayable?
I had version 2.0 and was getting the same error. I have just re-installed and now i'm getting an error in RealOne Player "Failed to connect to server"
When i try to open it again, i get "incorrect or malformed protocol"
I wonder where we can find v. 1.1? The site says it's version 1 but when it loads it's 2.0
I've never gotten the incorrect protocol error. I've only gotten the can't connect to server error when I'm in a low reception area. Even when I'm on the EDGE network, I can still watch Cingular Video, it automatically adjusts for the bandwidth. (though it looks pretty compressed) I didn't even know there was a version 2.0 of Realplayer, i could only find 1.0 and 1.1.
I'm certain it works though despite what Tech support has told you because i've been happily using it since I've gotten my Tytn. The realplayer I have doesn't stretch to full screen though, which really sucks.

Does your About screen in RealPlayer say version 1? The website installer says version 1 but it installs version 2.0 according to my about screen

You're right. I just checked and it does say version 2.0.028 or something similar to that.
Also, as slicric suggested, I have my preferences on RealOne set to wifi, although I'm connected through EDGE and 3g. RealOne didn't have any setting for 3g speeds, although whatever network i selected didn't affect Cingular VIdeo for me. I had it set to just GPRS and I could still watch Cingular Video files just fine.

That gets the file to play, but I have no video, just audio
UPDATE: Loaded the new version of RealPlayer (1.1 on the website) and Cingular Video now works perfect.
HELP!!!
hey guys ive been searching around for awhile about this topic and i came across this thread. you guys seem to know the most so i was wondering if anyone could lend a hand.....i have the cingular 8525 on cingular of course.....it does not come preloaded with cingular video....which i really want....i have real player 1.1 but when i access http://cingularvideo.cingular.com all it says is "cingular video is available only on supported 3g phones." my phone is 3g so how would i go about getting it on there?? would i have to conect via wi-fi to access that .ram download?? or is it possible one of you could post that program file here?? hopefully i can get it to work because i like this better than mobitv.

It is something that Cingular has built into their ROM. The Data guy for the Cingular North Florida Market has verified that it is not available yet on the 8525

Trying to watch Skymobile on T-mob (or not...)

Hi there,
I'm hoping someone could advise me on this. I'm trying to set up Sky mobile on my touch HD but when I try to select I'm a T mobile user on their Sky's page I get a message saying my phone isn't compatible. I'm pretty sure it's T mob's page being crap and not picking up what I have (I've had streaming work fine on my phone already).
Does anyone have any ideas on a way round this?
Many thanks in advance

T-Mobile UK block RTSP streams, even on the Web'n'Walk Plus service (don't know about Web'n'Walk Max). So maybe Sky are using that Protocol to stream their content. This is the reason why I can't get iPlayer or Orb to work over HSPDA/3G either.
I'm guessing the problem is with T-Mobile in general, rather than any specific phone.
edit: yep, it's rtsp ( rtsp://149.254.192.123/premium/sky/101074.sdp/Sky_Sports_1 )
Remove the proxy in your internet settings as that was stopping me from accessing my emails, etc.

us tmobile hd2

so since we cant upgrade our rom yet with this phone can anyone point out what updates to sense or other things that would have been left out of this rom?
The ROM that USTM is running is actually the one we all upgraded to (and from which all current roms are based!) You're pretty set for a while.
I actually never saw the ereader app in the demos of the real US T-Mobile. Can anybody confirm if it's still in there? I know the early releases of the rom had it.
The barnes and nobel ereader is on TMO USA ROM
The Barnes and Nobel e reader app is installed on the Tmobile USA rom, but it is not working yet. It is supposed to get an update on 3/23 and become functional. If you try and use it now it only prompts you to install an update that is not available yet.
Same thing with the mobi tv app. it has a demo channel but
will not come online until Tue 3/23.
From what I'm hearing there are a LOT of folks ready
to get this next Wednesday...I"M ONE OF THEM!!
This might not be the same volume as when the iphone
first day came but, it may be close..
TMO HTC HD2 multi-language typing
Folks, now the the HTC HD2 is officially coming out on 3/24, i am curious to know if:
1- you can write or text in different languages other than English and switch back and forth like the blackberry. My concern is i am used to switching between French, German and English when i text or write email or chat on my blackberry. Will i be able to do the same with this phone?
2-How easy and simple is it to toggle between screens for example copying and pasting some information from one spreadsheet to another or from one email to another?
3-How easy is it to have your gmail and yahoo acct opened at the same time on this phone?
Like the blackberry, is there a desktop manager for this phone to connect to your pc and manage and backup your files, music and pics?
4-Can you connect this phone to your printer and print pics or docs directly via bluetooth or usb cable?
5- is it easy to connect the phone to the car radio to play music?
6- Can someone please tell me more about Win 6.5? is it good or bad? is it user friendly or not?
8- I have win 7 on my laptop, will this phone be compatible when connecting to it?
I thank everybody and anyone who will be nice enough to read and answer my questions.
Cheers!!

MobiTV has been working fine for me using the 30 day free demo with ful channel lineup for the last few days on my TP2.
i got the hd2 today cause im sneaky and on the stock tmo rom i have had lots of freeze ups from sense. i could hit start and get around but sense froze up so i had to soft reset.
while it works its awesome but that has been a bit annoying. even when going into settings and disabling sense and reenabling it the homescreen is still locked up and had to reset again just now
havent tried mobitv but barnes noble is still waiting for the update
id say the the only really annoying thing so far is not having the clock on the taskbar and the battery not showing percentage
question for anyone with tmo.
i just set up my account yesterday and my data is not working properly but i dont want to give customer service a call since i got the phone early. everything works on wifi but on opera when i try to browse over data i get taken to a site saying my plan isnt compatible but i definetly have the unlimited data
Yea your phone probably isnt provisioned right. You would think that if you data plan worked with your old phone it would be the same when you switch, but I think they want to keep tabs on what phone you are using.
Hmm, see we're on a family plan and my mom's contract is up so I was going to use her upgrade and trade her my G1 for the HD2. Will T-Mobile freak?
i didnt have tmo at all yet does anyone know the correct data or proxy settings?
and the start menu just has the "move to top" option. does anyone have the cab to make the icons draggable
I know it's a double post, sorry.
Would be nice if any of you who got it early could contribute to this thread, I remember the OP hoping for a way to get his hands on the TMOUS SD card. The games and Transformers movies who be nice to share .

WM6.1
He we have a number of these we need to upgrade. some have a win mobile Classic sticker on the bat compartment but have had WM5 installed.
Have you got anywhere with this yet.
I did find this license costs at
www barcodediscount.com catalog symbol part-swe-116044-01.htm
but need a cheaper solution for the old handsets
Derek
I'm looking too! Seems you can't even purchase it anymore and I need v6 for certain apps.
I also am looking to upgrade one of my MC70 devices from WM5 to WM6/6.1 because the wireless security in wm5 will not support WPA-2 on this Symbol device with provided software. Currently it only supports WPA Personal and such. Which is way too insecure.
Anyone have any idea, or maybe a 3rd party wifi client that could handle authentication for wm5?
This device is still far too useful to be cast into the depths of a landfill.
I mean, it still has:
Bluetooth
Wifi
GPS
Cellular (Sprint)
IrDA
1D and 2D barcode reader
"Waterproof"
and very rugged.
Thanks you guys!
My MC70 with windows 5.0 supports WPA-2. You should select AES encryption
Everyone looking for upgrade options can PM me
I got some PMs and responded to them but I'm not sure if it got delivered as I don't see it in my send messages

Hi sent PM! not avail anymore from barcode warehouse in UK, according to online search! what to do!!!
I have shouted and moaned at zebra and don't get very far, even offered to take a contract, I ended up talking with them for 4 months only for tech to decline due to age of kit.
Any how I also have a bunch of MC75 so tried again.
Well got a bit closer, I now have a WM6.5 update but cant get it to roll.
I have sent you a Pm
Dez
Hi
I also have a symbol mc70 (or 75 i dont know it yet) and called my Distributor for a Update.
I cant rember who told me the Distributor or Zebra Salesagent that the Upgrades to Win6.1 are not longer Available.
The Upgrade cost ~10€ and is just a Digital Licence.
You need the Zip file downloads and a SIG file which is the licence that makes the magic work
But you do need to know which handset you have, MC70xx can go upto 6.1, MC75 6.1 and 6.5 but I have found a bit of ambiguity there
it seems their are few diff types of MC75
Note. I moved to 6.1 on the MC70xx but found the trigger cradle no longer works, go back to 5.1 and all is well.
If someone has a workround for the trigger on 6.1 (and i have tried the wedge software) please let us know
DB
I dont have the device next to me. Do you have a source for a Licence?
Mine came from Barcode Warehouse uk last year
about £ 22.00 which then opend up an order on the zebra site
But you must have the correct order code, otherwise you will get the "dont know i cant find it" answer
I would be carfull of the e downloads
last year

I was looking on there Page to but the shipping cost to Austria for a Virtual Product was insane. I think it was 40€ or more shipping for a digi licence...
