MLB TV - Xoom General

In case anyone was waiting for the MLB TV app for Honeycomb......stop waiting. Go straight to MLB.com and enjoy. Works great. Obviously you still need the subscription to the service. And wifi is highly reccomended.

Try this...I think this is the one i used....not sure cause I used a diiferent one for the NO2Chem 5066 rom....it was the actual rom...if noy let me know I know i have it here somewhere
Man, I thought Verizon was the only ones with a TV-like service, because they advertised the hell out of the feature when it first came out...This is great news!
Do you have to be on Sprint to watch this TV? Mobi TV works and Im on BELL lolz.

Yes, you have to be a Sprint customer. It stopped working earlier this year because Sprint was cracking down on people using it on other networks, mainly Verizon and AT&T.
flyers2114, I'm also using no2chem 2.1 and your attached Sprint TV cab locks up the phone. Do you have another cab I can try? Do you have Sprint TV working on no2chem 2.1? Thanks for your time.

So, I installed this cab, but if I suscribe, do I have to pay monthly for this? or is it like the now dead mobitv?
thank man!
If you don't have Sprint TV on your account with Sprint, you'll be limited to the free access channels.
Sprint's next firmware update for the Mogul will have official Sprint TV support. All the hacks out there right now are buggy, depending on what firmware you have.
before i risk a lockup and wasted space, what channels are available on the free access sprint tv deal?
i'm a sprint customer but not willing to spend any more $ with them.
thanks in advance
tv not playing
i downloaded the cab file and installed it, it runs perfectly until you try to watch a selection... then the screen goes black like its trying to play, but nothing comes in the screen... then if you tap the screen, it goes back to the channel listing... any ideas? thanks guys!
Quick word of warning, I tried some of the free channels, but still got billed $7.95 today for the "premium package", so be careful what you do. At no point did the app say I'd be subscribing to anything...
Hey Scott, what plan do you have with Sprint? I wanted to try this since I have unlimited data, but if you have it too, then maybe I won't try.
well i have the everything plan so i dont get charged for mostly anything i do on my phone but sprint tv IS a pay as you go type of option so if its not already included in your plan chances are some way some how sprint will find a way to catch you and bill you we all know how they are

mine does this also, but if i wait the tv starts up. just don't touch the screen afterwards.
mine lets me watch some of the entertainment previews, but nothing else. when i click on the free channels (foxsports, nfl, etc.) is just says no subscription info available. i am using the 3.56 ROM that just came out that had sprint tv on it.

Stream FIFA World Cup live on X10

I have searched the entire forum and others and have come up with a few suggestions but none actually work.
Skyfire 2.0 has the loading video window stuck on the screen in front of a perfectly playing live stream of the game behind it, very frustrating.
Ustream loads a frozen image of the game and does not stream on my device.
ESPN3 does not work with Skyfire browser.
Is there any "working" solution to streaming games live on the X10 here in the States?
Actually i watch using ustream.
At least earlier it worked ...
I tired a lot of channels until one of them was fine.
When i saw still images instead of a stream i checked the standard ustream in the browser and i saw the same issue there too.

Thanks for the reply.
I saw 171 views with no reply and I thought it was hopeless.
I tried all the ustream channels with no luck but I have heard others also find success with it so maybe it is a network issue.
It is too bad skyfire development won't fix the loading window error because the video streaming behind it is quite good.
Too bad you are down in south... Rogers Canada user can pay $15 to get all the FIFA2010 on the X10 and iphone.

Agreed.
I would definitely pay the $15.
Does anyone know how that works? It's $5 for rogers on demand mobile and another $10 for the "world cup premium package". What does the world cup premium package do if you can already get content from CBC with the $5 package?
I am using the rogers on demand app. It works flawlessly, quality is great amd there is no buffer or skipping. It is 5 a month to use the app and a one time 10$ fee for access to the world cup matches. Worth every penny for the matches but will not use it after. Little to no content otherwise.

This works wonderfully with one exception as stated in my opening post.
The loading window freezes at 50% and the game is playing flawlessly behind it!
The skyfire devs know about it but haven't provided a fix.
My guess is they won't due to our outdated 1.6.
ustream working well today.
I could not get one station to stream yesterday.

hahaha plus don't you need hardware to run it from your home too?
Suppose it depends on how much you actually use it.
For the MLB season where MLB has basically blocked the ability to watch your local team when you are not at home, it is worth the $$$. It was the original reason why I got it back when I had a WM device.
Use it a lot of other TV watching when needed, or more accurately for someone with me to view while stuck somewhere.
With it, I can see anything that I can when I am at home without any restrictions.
Paid $$$ for the phone, this is just a little extra that I can use both with the phone and notebook/desktop etc..

PlayOn Streams Netflix, Hulu to Android

thats right !
Cool dude, thanks for the heads up. Its a little pricey but I'm checking out the free trial now. This will work until Netflix gets their **** together and releases an app.
I'm not diggin the way this program operates, seems a bit convaluted. Patiently awaiting the arrival of a Netflix app

Unfortunately netflix app won't work due to hardware limitations of the snapdragon. But newer snap dragon processors will work. This app makes it possible for us unless Qualcomm is lieing about the hardware limitation.

Well that takes some wind out of my sails..
What about non snapdragon based system on chips?
I am fascinated and captivated by the vibrant screen on my epic galaxy s.
Just flashed bionix-v today on my vibrant. I was using bionix fusion 1.2 before and that was great, but so far this rom is amazing and has FROYO!!!
I recently cancelled my cable tv and have replaced it with Netflix and PlayOn. What's even better is that PlayOn streams Netflix, Hulu, my Amazon VOD, and all the other great channels and plugins right to my phone now from anywhere!
I didn't buy PlayOn right away because of the price, but signed up for their newsletter and jumped on a deal for 1 free month and $20 for the first year and then just $20 every year after that.
Can you tell i'm just a little excited?
Unimpressed. All this does is stream from those websites to your PC which then streams to your phone. Yawn. I can already do this with RDP/PC and access all websites that can stream to my PC.
Would be great if it streamed direct to phone via WIFI/3G.

Thanks for the heads up. I wasn't up to date on the data cap. Can't wait until cell phone companies and ISPs merge to meet the demands that will inevitably be plaguing them so that they can better fulfill the needs of their media hungry customers.

MLB.tv: No Streaming for Epic 4G

Well - thank you Samsung.
MLB.tv updated the AtBat2011 app today to include live streaming on Android devices. Woohoo, right?
Well, not so much. Because Samsung has delayed the official FroYo release for the Epic, the Evo is the only Sprint Device that is supported for live video streaming. Of course, I'm sure my ACS FrozenROM could handle the requirements, but because the Epic isn't officially supported the video option doesn't even show up.
I doubt there are any tricks to spoof device ID, but if anybody has any ideas, that would be great.
Otherwise, I just have one more reason not to buy another Samsung device again. Or, more properly, one more reason to be upset about the FroYo release (or lack thereof).
Here's the link to the app: https://market.android.com/details?...android.gameday.atbat2011.full&feature=banner
I feel your pain on this one. I got the update this morning and was psyched about it. But I was quickly let down when I notice my Epic wouldn't work!!
Thanks for this update. I almost bought it yesterday, then I saw that MLB partnered up with Apple for a free month trial for iPhone users. Hoping for the same Android deal, I see that it's wrought with problems still and not ready for primetime.
The Nexus S is supported, so is there a way to spoof the Epic as a Nexus S? I thought I remember seeing somewhere that one of the ROMs was using a modified market using a Nexus S identifier. Could the same approach be used here?
LIVE GAMES!? GET THIS TO WORK, NOW!!!! I always loved getting the radio feeds but if I can get the actual games, I'd freak the hell out...
speaking of that...when i goto mlb.com on a winmo device..gameday doesnt drop down anymore???? i havent found a way for gameday to come up on the epic, if there is one. but i also would love to listen to the games, anyway to do this on the epic??
Yea, the MLB app. It's $14 but well worth it if you use it as much as I do. I'm dying for live stream of games.

Bonsai was/is? Using the Nexus S keys so we could get protected apps from the market. I thought everybody here was doing the same on the leaked froyo's. Give Randy _T or Mammon a pm.

Not without some kind of tweak it appears, I've got the MLB11 App and I'm on Bonsai and don't see any live video options so it seems to still be reading it as an Epic.

If you can afford it, get Slingbox. They run from $150 to $250... The Solo (the lesser priced one- beware) has some issue with capacitors.. Anything that you can get on your TV can easily be forwarded to your device. I have an Epic, as well. Slingbox forwards me my MLB account (from Roku)... I also get Netflix, Hulu Plus, and lots of other stuff.. music YouTube, International News, etc. If I have a net connection, I can watch and listen to anything on my TV or Roku
To afford all this, I cut my Uverse account back to basic at $19 a month plus box rental. I was spending $90 a month prior to hooking up Roku and Slingbox. One time investment only for Slingbox and Roku. You will have to fork out the $29 for the Slingbox Mobile for Android app to accomplish this. It includes clever remote control codes to manipulate your TV and other hardware at home.
MLB looks fabulous on Roku this year. Last year, it was problematic. This year, great.
You'll be watching the World Series and all the playoff games without forking out any more money. It's a great way to go. Im saving a lot of money. I use it off and on when work is slow.. watch a couple innings, etc.. When we travel, I use it.. .I also use the Sling software on my laptop.
So if live radio working? I want this app.

So I went ahead and installed CM7 Alpha 1 to see if that works, but no such luck. When I go to my account on the market (web version) it shows the phone as a Samsung SPH-D700 under Model. When I'm on another ROM it shows up as just SPH-D700 and the manufacturer is the same in both cases (Samsung)
Could someone please drop MLB Android support a email and ask them why our phone isn't supported?
