Blockbuster app finally working!

Went to check on the Blockbuster app and its says its fianlly working, haven't tried it yet though.

"Sorry, the Blockbuster server cannot be found. Please make sure your device is connected to a data network (3G or Wi-Fi) and try again."
....... nope. haha
Kinda sucks..... i like Netflix for their FREE streaming with subscription.... but hate that they have delayed new movie releases. I like Blockbuster's online rental service due to getting new movies right away.... but they charge like $3-4 for one streaming movie. It's also nice that blockbuster has game rentals.... but lame that you have to wait like 3-6 months apparently before any of the new games are even available, but from my friend's experiences, GameFly isn't that reliable either.
*sigh*

Not working for me. Says need network connection and i have full bars not to mention im on wifi.

It was working for me for a minute. Where it usually says will be working in so and so days, it went straight to a.screen where it said thankyou for trying the app and they will let you try 1 movie free I guess. I just opened.the app again and your right now it says, the wifi 3g message. I should of tried to sign up when it was supposedly working.

It now says working! "Download in the android market" im trying it now.

I have downloaded the first version of the Blockbuster app 2.0.37. It will let you download the app from the market, but when you open the app it goes to a connection error message, saying it needs to be connected by 3G,4G, or WiFi. I then tried using WiFi to use it and it said it is connecting but then gives another error message saying carrier undefined? . Is this app ever going to be up and running!
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App

I get the data error also, but not before first getting an error code 12012. Anyone else get that?

Yes! Finally got past all those error messages when trying to open the new Blockbuster app. First had to go to Blockbuster.com to register for a account, credit card ect. ,after you do that, you are supposed to verify your account with a numeric code they give you. Then your device will say activating, then brings you right to the Blockbuster App online store. Before the app went online it said on the advertisement app page that Atrix owners would get 1 or 2 free rentals, when the app starts working. I wonder how we get those free rentals? I will try it out now and post results, should stream well im guessing because of the Atrix's high res screen.

I get a tamper detected as root error: This device will not be able to download or plaback Wdieine ecrypted content.
So it looks like if your rooted you will not be able to use this app.

Ya I guess not, iam not sure if the Blockbuster app works with root. I just did a return and have not done the update yet, and it is now final working for me!
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App

I don't think it really detects root right. I had rooted my phone but did the update and lost root. I still have the super user icon but any programs that require root don't work, yet I still get the error with the Blockbuster app that says root was detected. Pretty weak.

How I got to buy apps on the Xoom wifi

Hi,
When I got the Xoom wifi I was hoping to see all apps, free and paid and be able to purchase them. But as I found out, living in the caribbean doesn't allow me to view tablet apps and paid/purchase apps.
Basically this is what I did. It seems to work sometimes, but enough that I was able to get all apps I wanted. Even purchased quite a few. Basically this is what I did and hopefully it can help some of you out there.
1.I rooted my Hero and installed and enabled market enabler. I also opened the market and surfed around a bit. Left market open.
2a.On my PC using a VPN connection I surfed to market and was able to see tablet optimized apps section and purchase apps.
b.In some cases it would not allow me to send the installation to the xoom. So I send it to my Hero and make a backup using Atro. At the same time I put another VPN connection on the rooted Xoom wifi and installed "Paid Apps enabler" and set it to T-mobile. When I installed the APK, market would detect either an update or the tablet version and all would be fine.
Note: noticed that sometimes it would not allow me to purchase on the PC, so I would close the browser and surf a bit in the market on the Hero. Restart the browser on the PC and it would start working again.
I know this is confusing and a bit difficult, but it seems to work fine. Really hope there is a much easier method for us international users. Also as many have mentioned market enabler doesn't work with the wifi xoom.

Have you tried tethering your internet through an American proxy? I bet that would work

I haven't rooted my WiFi xoom as I'm expecting the imminent update so I can't tell if adding a proxy works.
I live in China and it's been bothering me like hell that I can't purchase any paid or country/carrier restricted app in the market, such as kindle, google earth etc.. I have tried factory restored the xoom, disabled any location service and set up a US VPN before starting the market app, still no luck. I wonder how Google managed to determine that my location was not in the States. However I rooted another MZ604 and used market enabler which did work in terms carrier restricted app, didn't try the paid app because it's not mine.
I'm hoping the update will fix this issue for WiFi only xoom. If it doesn't I will root it and try your way. Thanks for the info!

Dear Google

Hello, my name is Tommy.
I like your new 3.1 update. Everything runs sweet.
However, you changed some things, one in particular I am upset with. Its in your YouTube app. You seem to have changed the controls with play/pause/restart. Restart now is the forced control for when a video ends. Basically my issue is that when I just streamed a video and it ends, I can not rewind to any part of the video and hit play, because the button only displays restart. Now with me basically surviving off of the verizon network for my xoom, this has become an issue. Especially with longer HD videos. I don't understand why a video just streamed can't maintain its data for long enough that it can't be played again without restreaming it, especially since I've been doing it since I bought my Xoom on launch day. Any thoughts you might put towards this issue would be greatly appreciated by me.
Thank you.
Now where should I send this? If you agree, please help me and send one also.

Don't download Youtube from Market, it's the phone version. If you already did, go to settings - all applications, find Youtube and click remove updates.
To fix the no youtube problem, go to settings - all applications, find Google Partner Setup and click Clear Cache, restart your Xoom and Youtube app will appear magically.
Hope this helps.

Ha sweet just did this and worked perfect! Plays so much better than on the website! Thanks

Live TV Timewarner Cable ICS only

Credit for the APK goes to B00sted
In the android market (google play) there is a timewarner cable app that lets you watch live tv on your android device, but only if you have an ICS device and you are not rooted. YOU ALSO HAVE TO BE A TIMEWARNER CABLE INTERNET AND TELEVISION SUBSCRIBER. Well i found in the galaxy nexus forums someone changed the APK around to allow rooted devices. So now on my kindle fire I am watching live tv. FYI I am usuing GedeRom 3/15.
Link for the APK

Also just to note, the original APK is free.

I tested my AT&T Uverse app earlier today and it works as well on my KF as it does on my GNex. Pretty cool.

I don't know how lucky, it seems like half the time it's kinda laggy, could be a bandwidth problem on my part

When trying to launch I keep getting:
"We aplogize we're unable to fulfill your request at this time. Please try again later if the problem persists... etc"
Anyone else getting this right now?

Just tested mine and it worked fine. What steps did you use to set it up and sign in
Sent from my Amazon Kindle Fire using XDA Premium HD app

I just downloaded it and ran it and never had the option to sign in. It stays at the Time Warner screen for a while then gives me the error. I'm running gedeRom as well... Weird

I'm assuming you downloaded it from the link I provided

Yea and from the other thread. very strange. I'M wondering if it's because the apartment I'm in doesn't currently have a cable package.

Yes I believe you have to have both a timewarner cable and internet subscription

It works but I noticed that you are using the phone .apk. I tried the tablet version on the original OP but it wouldn't work. Any idea why?
Oh and thanks for this, I've been waiting a long time for this feature.

Yeah I tried the tablet one too and I couldn't get it to work, not really sure why it didn't
