Spotify is now releast Official

Spotify is now releast Official http://www.spotify.com/en/mobile/overview/install-for-android/

Yes!
This made my monday great
(endelig har svenskene fått til noe bra)

I don't (and won't) have the premium service but I installed it anyway!

Thx for the news, but it seems like for free version you need an invit?
Does anyone have one more?

You have to pay to use it on your android.. (or iphone)

is it just me or is it pretty laggy, esp pulling up the playing now screen?

I have a premium account but the DAMN market won't give me Spotify... it doesn't show up. Just because I'm in Finland? Aaaaargh!

Hmm, it should show up. Try to clear the cache..
It's a free app..

I am in Finland and tried this today, works great! I seem to recall adding external links to these posts is forbidden, so if you need the Spotify APK file to install on your Android, head over to the Swedish forums (of a site called Swedroid) and read the threads about the new release - somebody put up a link to the apk-file there.
I listened to Spotify on my way to work today and it's awesome! No lag at all, even though I always go through areas with really bad HSDPA reception...
Edit: I see the first post in this thread has a link and since the spotify client is free, this shouldn't be considered piracy (?). Mods, remove the link if you are in doubt. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=MNTO3B06. Sorry.

Looking forward to giving this a whirl.

"The mobile service has been made available exclusively to Spotify Premium members in the majority of our launch countries including the UK, Sweden, Spain, France and Norway. Spotify is not yet available on Android Market in Finland."
This sucks. But thanks jayjay, will try that out!

Simply awesome, doesn't feel like a beta at all. On t-mobile stock rom and the app is snappy with no lag. Works fine over hsdpa. offline playlists are great but still dont know if theres a limit on how much can be downloaded or if they have a time limit.
Only gripe so far is that the t&c say that a day pass gives you access but wouldn't let me until I bought full premium.

Yeah the £9.99 monthly fee is putting me off to be honest. Another tenner on top of my monthly contract, no ta.

Stick to ripping off the artists eh?

Nah, just use my own MP3's.

Not everyone steals music! He could have ripped them from a CD, or paid to download them from somewhere else.

I always buy CD's, then import them into my Itunes.
I seem to be one of the few people who still likes to buy CD's for the album work, CD inserts etc

Oh, never mind my previous "secret spotify apk link". It seems you can download the Android apk straight from the spotify website, which makes much more sense than some free download service.

Apparently the artists aren't getting anything from Spotify anyway. Buying CD's or MP3's from iTunes/Amazon et al seems to be the only way to ensure the artist is compensated for their work. Which is pretty rubbish.

Justin.tv App?

I recently just noticed that Justin.tv came out with an app for the iphone. I was wondering if anyone know whether a similar app for the site is available for winmo? Any help would be appreciated thanks

I know i saw that too on justin tv. i hope someone can came up with a justin tv app. ! the only app that works on justin tv is skyfire i use that ! i have a htc touch pro 2 !

I would love to see this too! It be cool to have live tv (closest thing to) without me setting up a media server at home!

buuuuuump?

justin tv on Wm 6.5 !!!! bump!!

[APP] myPlayer - BBC iPlayer / Hulu / 5OD / MSN / SBS for WM [v1.280 02-Apr-2010]
and.....
download the MobiTV.2.2.0.109484.CAB from the T-Mobile HD2 apps thread. It has a 30 day subsciption. Although though people are claiming it works after the 30 day trial

Unfortunately, as great as myPlayer is, it does not allow any type of live streaming as justin.tv
I am checking out mobitv again, but in the past it was way buggy and way too expensive to keep as a viable app.

it would be very cool to watch the world cup while working

for live streaming,
the best i tried so far are SpbTV backed up by WebTV.

Those programs never have any good channels to watch when I've tried them...Justin.TV is great cuz it's always streaming something live like the NBA Playoffs/Finals! I'd really love to have that this season lol.

playoffs would be nice to have as well.

i classified these apps in terms of reliability not in terms of channel's number (SPB is much more reliable than anything else i've tried).
you should try TVUplayer channel's list, there is an win32 version if you want to quickly check for your channels on your PC.
i am just stating that these are the best i have tried on the winmo platform.

No App Conversions yet ?
So will justin TV work at all on the TILT 2 ?

[Q] Slingplayer

Does anyone know if the Slingplayer app works on the Xoom?

I would love for it to work but I have a feeling the Sling AP would not work with the new AU.
But... you could go to slingbox.com and sign into your sling player that way and watch with no problem I would assume. I will find out tomorrow.

thanks, I have the same feeling. Slingbox.com will probably work, but not until Xoom gets Flash support.

I doubt slingbox.com would work...you need to install a browser plugin, its not just flash only.
Wouldn't the app work in "stretched" mode?
I'm sure theyll come out with one eventually, im just hoping its a scaleable update to the current one.
I have to hope they don't really expect me to shell out another $30 for a tablet version of the mobile one I already have.

Oh yea, you are correct about the plugin... I completely forgot about that. ha!
Well, hopefully they come out with an ap for Honeycomb, I can't imagine they wouldn't. Hopefully sooner than later.

Slingplayer works but the video quality is not great (not optimized for the large display), but it does work.

Yea I completely forgot about the plugin. Slingplayer would be the app I used most on a tablet. The Droid Streamer Pro app is a good alternative, but i doubt the current version of that will work on honeycomb either.

Thank you. Good to know that at least it works somewhat. I can live with it not being as sharp as it is on a phone as long as its watchable until they update the app for Honeycomb

MLB At Bat 2011

The 2011 version of MLB At Bat is available in the market. This year there's a free lite version and a paid full version.
I downloaded the lite version to test it out and I can't get the video's to play. I get audio but no picture. I am currently running MYN's Warm Z rom. Is anyone else having problems with this app.
I'm going to restore a stock backup that I have and see If I can get it to work. If anyone has similiar issues or finds a soluton let me know. If it does work for you state what rom you are running.

Wow, no baseball fans here in the Evo forum, huh?

Checking it out now stand by..

Downloaded MLB At Bat Lite. Video's play just fine for me. Running CM7 Nightly #7.

I have the full version, I'm right now listening to the Giants & D-Backs game.
haven't tried the videos yet, but I'm also running Warm Z, so if I find anything, I'll post back here!

So, do you have to pay 15 dollars every season for this app or did the people who bought it in 2010 get it for free? Also, video was working on my phone running cm7 RC1.

I think you have to pay for every season. I personally just stream the games on my phone through the web. I can't say the name of the website but you guys could search on google.
Too much for a season I think.

You have to pay every season, you also have to pay for a MLB.TV subscription if you want to watch the games through the app.

Im gonna give it shot. It looks pretty good though.

I am running MYNs Warm Z and it won't install. It downloads and then disappears. Any ideas?

Make sure it's not installing to SD Card. Sometimes downloads have disappeared on me, when they auto install to SD card.

so I have a MLB.TV subscription, where in the app can I put in my subscription info? Cant seem to find it.

I think video streaming will become available on Opening Day. From the At Bat site: "Opening Day 2011 is March 31. Additional features and functionalities for At Bat 11 will be released for Opening Day."

Use TuneIn Radio app in the Market. Streams all radio straight to your EVO, works awesome. I can listen to local radio - meh - or the Giants games from KNBR 650.
This app streams both FM and AM, local and national stuff. Highly recommend.
I didn't know MLB had a lite version, I'll give it a try on my rooted Sense EVO.

So now that the season started, anyone have the video option? I don't. I have an mlb.tv subscription too. I hope it's not because I have a custom ROM (Calkulin's EViO 2 v1.8).

netflix android

so i was using the netflix apk that was posted in here months ago, out of nowhere i get this message saying there is an upgrade for my app. It took me to the market and there it was netflix finally made the app or at least i can see it now, but i cant upgrade or install it. ...
Edit. I was able to install it so far its the same as the one i had bfore nothing new.

Yes, just got the same thing. Typically this means that GT 10.1 is now officially supported and these updates are usually bug fixes. You won't see anything new.

i just installed from market with no problem

The "Update Details" blurb on the Market page says that Netflix now supports all 2.2 and 2.3 devices....3.x also seem to work fine as well.
I doubt we'll see anything like HD for Netflix for several years, when more devices are able to display 720p and they don't have to write a billion different exceptions.
