TVCatchup from Play Store

Has anyone from the UK managed to get the TVCatchup application from the Play store working on the ICS P6800?
I have it working on my ICS Note but on my 7.7 the application starts but no TV channels appear.

It works fine for me

Do you have a uk sourced P6800? Mine is from Hong-Kong and that might explain the difference.

Mine is from Thailand. I don't think it will make any difference?? Have you tried a fresh install? Mine had problems at first going from the beta version to the market version,but a fresh install sorted it out

My 7.7 uses:
Android 4.04
Baseband: P6800XXLPW
Kernal: P6800XXLQ1
I wonder if I need to flash a different ICS to get TVCatchup to work, any ideas?

Can anyone who has got the TVCatchup application from the Play Store working on the P6800 please post details of their firmware?
Thanks

SUCCESS
I changed the router and that fixed the fault. It is strange that the original router worked with my laptop and Note but not the 7.7.

Incompatible apps

I've now found about 6 incomplete apps that use to work on my One X, most of them are games but one was an important banking app. How are you guys finding it?
Also will they eventually be fixed to work on our device?

I think most of it is down to the screen resolution not being supported yet.

Try this fix

Thanks for that, didn't know he had released a "non root" version as well.

Will the apps still run in full screen using this method as it tricks the display into a smaller resolution?

I found the HSBC Fast Balance App worked on my old HTC Desire but not on the HTC One. I thought it was an Android issue since I was running 4.0 on my old HTC Desire.
Any fixes for this app?

Yes, i believe it doesn't trick the display into a smaller resolution, just tricks the store to think it is a different resolution.....if that makes sense?

[Solved]Call Recording

Geez, there are so many call recording apps on the market. Most of them just simply doesn't work. Has anybody found a working call recorder for the i337 and/or the i9505G? I'm really getting tired of testing them out despite reviews. Such a pain to completely remove some of them. Sort of got ripped off on another claiming it works on the s4.
I would love to record calls via Bluetooth. Not sure if that's even out there or not either.
If you would like to share any information please let me know! Thanks!

There is a modded call recorder in the Apps section that works fine. You can also use "Call Recorder" by SkvAlex, there is another post in the Apps section on how to get it going. I have used both and if you follow the directions they both work fine. If you decide to use them, make sure you read the entire threads before you do to see what to expect. Personally, I am now using SkvAlex's Call Recorder APK because I like the interface and how it works. You can use a free version (avaialable here at XDA). It might be a trial, but I would suggest purchasing the app. The modded call recorder I mentioned to begin with is free. Either way, you can search the Apps section for each thread. Good luck.

Thanks. I'll try the free one and if it works I'm way more than willing to pay for it.

Scott I noticed that the GoldenEye ROM seems to have a call recorder as well. Do you know if it works for sure? I'm tempted to swap ROMs if it does.

agent929, I forgot, ACR 6.8 broke recording. The previous version, 6.5, works fine. I had to revert to 6.5.
Here is a link to the ACR version 6.5 APK: http://www.wuala.com/oakd/public/xda/ACR_6.5.apk/
Sorry about giving you bad info before.

Does everything else work well with the GoldenEye ROM as well? Are there any problems that you have encountered that may not be on XDA?
EDIT: I downloaded the GoldenEye ROM, and noticed something that bothers me. Hangouts will not work over WiFi. I know how to fix that in the SQL editor but that's really a bother to me especially when I have to do it fairly often. Is there a gapps package that I can flash or something that will make this go away? Thanks.

Please explain. I just got my fiance a GS4. It shipped with MF3 update already on it. I rooted it but the same call recorder apps that work on my GS4 don't work on hers. I am searching for answers.

It's going to be the kernel on her phone. It won't work with a lot of them. I never tested on MF3 so I wouldn't be a good source to help you there. You can always safestrap amd flash MDOB.

App require Flash Player and S4 not compatible?

Is there any way to use apps like Justin.tv in Galaxy s4?
Won't let me play the tv channel cuz the flash player doesn't work for S4 devices
Plz help!!
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app

You must install flash player then use a browser with it enabled. Dolphin is okay but fire fox is more stable when it comes to flash.

You can find the adobe flash player apk in themes and apps

I have yet to find a browser besides Boat that works. And many sites require flash 11.5 or higher. Its just a bust. Not sure what's up with the mobile world these days.

Justin.tv doesn't have the android app out yet- at least according to their site.
BUT, justin.tv does in fact work from firefox vers 24 (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox) with flash 11.1.115.81 (http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/installers/archive/android/11.1.115.81/install_flash_player_ics.apk).
I have mine set up that I click to activate the plug in...I press it, wait a few seconds then the video loads. You need to kill firefox if it's running in the background when you install flash. After you restart firefox, you should be golden.

Well, in the nicest way possible- I'm not gonna d/l the one you posted and install it...(and I won't ask anything about the version or if it's legitimate or not). But I can say I'll install the one from the market I found by looking up the app by the filename of what you posted in the app store there's a free version for it https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=co.bantamstudio.streamiefree&hl=en and it does seem to have some playback issues.
By further looking at some of the user comments of that app, I would think that it's a general issue occurring with it and you may want to either spring for the paid version (for real) or contact the developer of the app. It would seem to be that they know best what's occurring with it and can make the adjustments for things to work as expected. Also, by the comments on the reviews, it sounds like the developer broke something when they did their last update.
EDIT: Pretty much says it all in the description of the app in the play store, buddy:
"FLASH IS REQUIRED. Streamie will help you install flash if you don't have it already.
Please rate Streamie 4 or 5 stars if you feel we deserve it. If not, please contact us and tell us how we can do better.
If you have any bugs please contact us directly so that we can quickly support you.
Currently only Justin.tv and Twitch.tv streams are available. We are working hard to add other video services to Streamie.
KNOWN ISSUES:
* The flash player will stop playing if you touch the playing video. This is a problem with the player that Justin.tv provides. We are working on a solution to this.
* Sometimes Justin.tv or Twitch.tv will take a long time to respond to a request. Try refreshing.
* If you have an ad blocker on your phone, it can take a long time to load the stream. This is because the ad request needs to time out."

Yeah, that's what everyone else told them too...and the links were already provided....it's not necessarily flash that's the issue, as indicated my previous post and by the OP uploading the apk they're using... So, that's a pretty good indicator it has to do with the app they're using- that - coupled with the information on the app in the playstore reviews/comments and known issues in the app description - as also indicated in my previous post...oh and it's also outlined how the installer for flash you mention (that was mentioned earlier in this thread) ends up also working in firefox as indicated in my post prior to my last one as well...so I think that's a fairly good indicator that flash or installing flash isn't the crux of the problem...
call me silly, but if I could take the liberty to take a wild guess here, I think it's the app....okay maybe not such a wild guess, but it's the streaming app they're using- as indicated in my previous post...

Wonder if it could be because of the os version too - 4.2.2 on the S4. I think the S3 & note are still on 4.2.1.
I know it was like that with the Crackle app & honeycomb on some devices there was issue playing for a bit.
Anyhow, glad folks got something figured out and/or alternatives.

What's the Plugin:SAMSUNG v2.0?

HI All,
I've been googling for it and looking here with no results.
I have purchased a brand new SM-G900F and I noticed an app in google play called "Plugin:SAMSUNG v2.0".
I cannot remove it, it was preinstalled on the phone and I can't even lauch it (or don't know how).
From what I understand it's for remote control of my phone.
So the question is: Do you know some more info about this app?
And more important: Is it legit?
I'm quite confused.
Any info would be much appreciated.
Cheers!

Its a remote support service....i jus uninstalled updates

I did not install the update for this app, but if Google Play wants to update it, doesn't it mean, that the app is already installed and there is a newer version available?
