AmazonMP3 - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps

i extracted and created the cab based on the HD2 leaked rom....havent used it to download anything, but here it is...you can thank me individually

Anyone have a short description of what this app does?

it allows you to purchase mp3's through your phone using amazon

Thanks. I will try it out since I purchase most of my mp3's through Amazon. I can't seem to preview songs on PIE or Opera 10. So I have been using SkyFire to listen to and purchase songs on Amazon. For those of you that don't know, once you set up your "one-click" purchasing options on Amazon you simply click, then tell navigate to where you want the mp3 saved and you have a truly portable high-quality mp3. Much better quality than iTunes (I feel sorry for those folks still using iTunes).

first of all thanks for doin this, i've been looking for an amazon mp3 app for months. so far it seems to be workin great, haven't bought anything yet, but will update once i have. again good job and thanks

Has anyone purchased anything with this yet? I keep getting "User authenticated: Fail"

Same here. I love the potential of this app, but for now it is easier for me to go through Opera or Skyfire. Here are the issues I am having:
The login settings seem to stick, but I also get the above "User authenticated : Fail"
After a search that brings up multiple results I can preview the song in many mp3 apps (TCPMP, WMP, PocketMusic). With all of these players, after I finish the preview and go back to the Amazon window, it goes back to the home page and I lose my search. In other words I cannot preview more than one song per search. So i have to do the search all over again to get to a second or third preview.
If I close the player that was previewing my mp3 the Amazon app closes as well. I have to leave the player open and task back to the Amazon app to keep it open. but again, it returns to the Home page and loses my search results.
When I click the 'Download' button on the Home page the resulting screen does not give me any way to return to the Home page. The only options are two soft keys, 'Clear List' and 'Retry Failed'.
This is a 'close but no cigar' for me. Anyone else not having those problems? I am on stock Tilt 2 ROM.

will this work in the UK or is it US specific?

Yeah I am also getting a user autenticated fail error. Oh well hopfully it will be officially released for Windows Mobile one day (or I guess when WP7 hits).

I am getting a user autenticated fail error too.

same error

Amazon MP3
Looks very nice but does not work, totaly useless because you cannot login.

Anybody get this to work?
Thanks..
Marc

All same issues here...
I would hope the person who modified the CAB would be checking this thread to see what is going on with it/update and fix bugs....

So how do i get this to work on my HTC HD2 then exactly?? please tell me1

authentication failed
I had this problem too. Have you rooted your phone, or perhaps uninstalled amazonmp3 and then reinstalled it? I started getting the authentication failure after I rooted my phone. I was able to solve the problem by creating a second account over at Amazon.com.
Elsewhere, I've read about people solving related amazonmp3 problems by going to the amazonmp3 menu and selecting something like "erase everything". (But I didn't know that when I solved my problem by creating the second amazon.com account.)

Leo Impressions

Hi Guys, just thought id post my thoughts on the Leo.
Ive been using mine now for over 2 weeks having come from an N95(and several failed attempts at finding something I liked inbetween including various iphones, N97 etc etc) so to the thoughts.,
The screen for me was a bit tricky as many have said before, I have huge hands, but decided to persevere.
Has to be said that after about a 10 day period typing messages etc became much easier, after 2 weeks it was brilliant, but then came the eureka moment, which it has to be said was'nt good for me, but telling all the same.
After flashing the ROM, the typing experience became similar to a fair proportion of others on here, infuriating!
Now thinking logicly about it, I decided it couldn't be the screen as was fine before, only thing changed was the ROM, so was software, tried a screen align, hmmm, worse still, did it again, slightly better, but still no cigar, went and checked settings and set to how id had it before, no vibrate(seems to fubar typing), keyboard click on, screen click on, correct as you type on, complete words in both XT9 and ABC both on and did screen align again, now zoila, its better than before(after another screen align) no more false inputs although xt9 has to learn my vocab again(annoying) but it really is a revelation.
Now the only thing annoying me is the long sms list issue (although partialy sorted by selecting all messages and going in through WM)
Can I just add, absolutely epic site guys and thanks to all those that spend there own time making the WM experience better for all!!
Noooo! you've got it all wrong. You're supposed to try typing for 5 minutes, throw your toys out the pram and go buy an iPhone.. *then* come on to xda developers and post a nice long rant about how poor the entire phone / windows mobile is (bonus points for expletives and spelling mistakes).
Fixing problems in an intelligent, logical manner? whatever next?!
I just got my HTC HD2 from Royal Mail. Everything seems to be working flawlessly. The screen is just gorgeous and the navigation is really smooth and snappy. The videos online really do not do it justice.
I've just got a few of questions. I heard that Opera does not support flash, is this true? and will this change in the future?
I tried using IE to open youtube but it doesn't seem to play anything. It has the flash 9 logo and that's it. How do I play videos via the web browser?
Also, when I open up IE it says that it connects using my data plan and I may get charged. Does it not work over WiFi?
I'm just uploading files onto it right now but yes, this device has had my jaw on the floor since I opened the packaging. By far the best phone I have ever owned.

Opera doesn't support flash.
Use the You Tube app already on your handset, it works perfectly.
For playing videos within your browser, download the Skyfire browser for free. I don't like the interface and therefore only use it when I have to but it supports flash and you can play videos and surf for porn on it lol.
gamma500. looks like you still need to find the return key (aka as enter key) as this is the only thing missing in your message. Or did you type it on a PC keyboard, and is the return key (aka as enter key) broken?

I don't have the youtube app, where can I find it? I got my phone from T-Mobile UK if that helps. And I thought IE did support flash?

Opera doesn't support flash and IE only has 'flashlite' which isn't suitable for playing video. You will need to download Skyfire but the You Tube app will be in your start menu - press the icon at the top left of the screen or the windows button in the middle at the bottom - then scroll through the icons.

I don't have it pre-installed, is there somewhere I can get it? It's wierd that they didn't include it. Is anybody here on T-Mobile UK who has it pre-installed?
Dont have a HD2 ...yet! But from what I have read Youtube is not included on the T-Mobile handset.
Thanks Christonabike, personally don't see the merit in ranting, seldom effective in sorting issues and htc-hd2, in an effort to be cloggy friendly have inserted a few returns just for you!

Fantastic! Disabling the vibrate response was one of the best things I could do! I can actually type for long periods of time with little errors and the XT9 and ABC is working great now, I didn't realise it could learn... so have been typing in all of my Northern Irish phrases that we use over here!
I'm happy once again, I'm really starting to love this phone; was a bit doubtful at the start and was thinking my N95 8gb looked like a good option to go back to but my faith is growing in this device by the day!
Once again to OP, thanks!
It Just gets better with time Rossimac, which only became apparent after having flashed the ROM and thereby losing two weeks of it.

Groovefish broke. How can I fix?

I installed Groovefish when I flashed my ROM and it worked perfectly.
Since then I tried to search and it would just stop.
When I view the debug log, it says:
Token is Invalid
Seach Error: InvalidTokenException
Any idea how to fix this?
I think it's been saying that for everyone...It happened a couple weeks ago, maybe Grooveshark blocked the application or something similar....sorry dude
this stopped working for me too, glad i'm not alone. I do have pandora to pick up the slack though.
Simple!!
download, unzip, and copy this into your groovefish installation directory:

Worked perfectly. Thank you!
Working great. Thank you l3it3r.

Here ya go: http://www.jorisvandenende.com/SciLorsGroovefish0.32QuickFixv3.zip
with the hotfix, it tells you to unzip the file and replace the one in the directory, but I didn't have one to replace in the directory in the first place...
still doesn't work!

Edited original cab and added updated file.
Getting error
Edit: Figured it out
More than half the songs I choose won't play, just sits at requesting stream and in the debug log I get 404 Bad request errors. Anybody else getting this ?
You can also try my CAB for this fix, just install groovefish and overinstall the fix
http://scilor.ac-host.net/download.html
Is this not working for everyone here?
If I type a song to search for it just freezes up on the searching and then I have to force out of the program.
Any suggestions?
groovefish is old news... check out nanogroove. it's better in every way
nanogroove is nice indeed
nanogroove not working
Anybody else having a problem with nanogroove? I can't list any songs or my playlists. I get a Search Failed! (GS_JSON_PARSE_ERROR)
??
Just because a new commercial App comes out, no one is interested in the old free one anymore?
Grooveshark is a perfect little casual app when you want to play a song one time. I've had occasions in which I want to play a song, but arent going to buy it just to show someone how it goes. Groovefish was perfect for that, and if I have to pay for a new app, I'd sooner spend the money actually buying the tunes!
Now, how can we fix this??
Nanogroove works for 5 minutes at a time (unlimited) without having to pay for it. Perfect for playing just one song at a time. Not to mention that it actually works, unlike groovefish lately, even with the updated dll. Top it all off with a nicer look, including album art and I see absulutely no reason not to use it instead.
I personally think the $5 is worth it to have the added ability to create, save, and play a custom playlist.
Edit: Nanogroove is not working for me at the moment either... hmmmmm.......
I have a feeling any non-sanctioned app that is tapping into third party software is going to have to play a lot of programming "whack-a-mole" in order to maintain functionality. We'll have to see how this all plays out...

It's like MS Marketplace....but better !

I tried OpnMarket as an alternative to MS Marketplace, what can I say, MS could learn something here.
It has a good way to browse the apps and I have not seen one you have to pay for (donations are welcome though).
The number of apps are currenly limited, but still more than the Marketplace, however I'm sure it'll grow.
True, this OPN Market seems good and I think most applications or games are free inside, right?
While MSN Market have some applications or games which need to purchase before downloading.
Also, unlike MS Marketplace, you have the ability to save the applications where you want instead of just to the device, thus saving the precious memory on your phone.
I know you can just move the apps manually but the is just a hassle to do, and to be honest I just couldn't be bothered to use the Marketplace mainly for this reason.
thanks for the heads up. I just installed this now. microsoft should be ashamed of themselves!
Marketplace seems to be the biggest failure when it comes to Windows Mobile. What help us great hardware, if don't have applications to run on.
Looks very interesting! But I constantly get a 'Connection failed! Please check your internet connection and try again.' error when trying to log in through the application.
Anyone else with the same problem? Connection is working fine btw so that can't really be the issue.
It was working well for me... Installed an app to my storage card, was quite happy with the interface, even if it did feel a little low-res. However, on downloading my 2nd app, I clicked "back" hoping it would download in the background. IT appeared to stop, so I went back to the app I wanted to download. The store then locked up, and eventually crashed out and now won't load.
Very poor error handling, in my opinion.

I have to say I also thought that it was going to download in the background, however for a first release it is still miles better than Marketplace

Heh, yeah... I just tried it a few times and suddenly I got in. Looks good so far!
Works good, and a way better than a MS Marketplace (especially local one). Beatiful gui without those monstfous MS fonts
Many thanks for the Link, looks pretty good and they have a lot of content..

Avatar - Sorry, License Expired

Just got the Vibrant and finally when trying to watch Avatar for the first time, i get an error say "Sorry, License Expired" I tried opening video player, i see the trailer and avatar.dcf file, trailer works fine, but avatar comes up with error "avatar.dcf locked. Do you want to unlock it now?
Okay or Cancel both doesnt work. I tried googling this but nothings out there. Ideas?
Thanks
My best advice is to contact T-mobile
I had the same issue this morning, except the error was "Sorry, License not found."
Inexplicably, it seems to have gone away on its own.
Probably not the most ideal solution but a factory reset fixes both these issues. I have seen both these problems and the reset fixed it.
Sorry to hear about your problems. Just to clarify (so I don't run into the same problem) are you guys using your phone stock or have you modified it in anyway? If yes in which way (e.g. root, custom boot loader, etc.)
Did you open the movie file itself with a media player, or by the avatar app on the homescreen?
Basically out of the box. setup my gmail account, facebook, then played with some apps. Then i tried to watch Avatar for first time, i get sorry, license expired (icon on main page) then i tried to lauch the video player and clicked on the file, I get the file is locked.
I factory reset this once and its the same deal. I just rooted the phone. and tried it again, samethig. Havent noticed anything wrong with phone.
i have Avatar on blueray. just wanted to check it out on the phone itself cause the trailer looks awesome.
JT
I've had the same problem. Power cycling the unit seems to have solved the problem.
No issues here, and I'm rooted.
Off the top of my head, are you using a Task Killer? I notice there are a few services running for DRM and I would assume if you kill them it could interfere with Avatar or the Sim3, which both use DRM. The ones I am referring to are com.sec.android.app.drmua and com.sec.android.providers.drm.
That's a really good thought, and yet ANOTHER reason to avoid task killers.

never thought of that..hmmm thx for the heads up
I am not using task killer apps. and i don't want to do factory reset.
is there any other way we can get rid of the error?

Grooveshark work around

Has anyone been able to find a way to use the Grooveshark desktop site without getting the "problem loading flash" error? I have read having flash 10.2 installed and using the Dolphin browser set to desktop user agent would work, but so far have had no luck on my Xoom or D1 without getting the error message. Also tried Skyfire and the stock browser with the about:debug trick, no dice. Anyone had any better luck, or other solutions that worked?
Have you tried TinyShark on the market?
Yeah that's what I have been using lately, but I would like to be able to load my playlists and everything from the grooveshark desktop site.
Am i missing something? Why not use the Grooveshark app in the market?

Oh ok, makes sense. I forgot i'm subscribed already.
Tinyshark lets you load your playlists too. The only benefit to the Grooveshark player is the offline cache ability. I tried it for a month and Tinyshark fit my needs just fine without paying $9 a month. When it was $3 a month it may have been worth it but triple the price and I'm out.
I think everyone that has replied has missed the point, I also am wondering if there has been a work around or if anyone is working on it, I think that with a tablet, we should be able to hit the real site and have flash work, why would we need to pay for an app or get an app that is made for small phones when we should be able to just go to the website.
I wish I was smarter with these dev things and I could work on it but I dont have the time to learn.
Hopefully someone that is reads this and wants the same thing, I love gooveshark but being that it is free from my desktop, I am not really wanting to pay for an app....
just my just my .02, thanks
Good luck man, I am hoping the update to the flash player will maybe work, but aside that I have had no luck in getting the desktop site to work on the Xoom and just started using the TinyShark app in the market. Not nearly as nice, but I will take what I can get until someone figures this out.
Flash also reports the client platform/OS, independent of the browser user agent, when connecting to a streaming server. I don't use Grooveshark, so I don't know if this is the reason you get the error, but it's a strong possibility.
Some people have had success with opening a file in Flash (first honeycomb release) in a hex editor and replacing the string "AND" (Android) with "WIN" (Windows). There were also some high jinks to get the change to persist, but a modified APK was made available that seemed to work for some users to access Hulu. I haven't followed it lately, but you could probably find more info searching for "flash for hulu".
EDIT: Here's the link: [MOD] Flash 10.2 Working HULU Updated: 4/29/11
Best case scenario is that someone has put out a modded APK for the current Flash release that also works with Grooveshark. If not, there might be another, less elegant solution.
I'm still debating on which tablet to buy xoom,asus or wait for newer models.
Does the GS app work on the honeycomb? Atrix users was complaining on their forums so that's why I'm asking
