Working perfectly (streaming Sky Sports etc.) on my rooted Galaxy S3, using Voodoo Rootkeeper to temp hide root

sky go workin on sgs 3
thats ok im glad it helped out as it didnt work on my sgs 2 which was a pain lol but it really does work pretty well,
i got mine on 3 mobile as they do unlimted data contracts which not many other networks do.
i was paying nearly 30 pounds a month on data charges with orange becuase my work dont have wifi.
but now im on 3 i can leave it on any time and dont get charged
im on 2000 mins any network
5000 mins any 3 mobile customer
unlimted texts
34 pounds a month a bargin

Not working on my S3

I'm guessing this requires a login also and you have to be a sky customer?

Got it working?

Has any one tried to view sky go via hdmi cable to a larger tv screen ? i know sky have blocked this feature on the official app but i wondered if any of the hacked apks had disabled that ?

Keeping an eye on youtube to see if someone does that. I haven't got the cable to do it but I will be trying this out when I get a chance. Official cable is needed for hdmi output afaik. The picture quality takes a while to get to an acceptable standard but after a few minutes it's not bad. I'm interested to see if it watchable on a 40 inch lcd tv. Sky seriously needs to get the finger out on this one, 720p/480p would be awesome on the S3. A work around for a browser on the S3 would be one possible way of getting a higher resolution closer to how it performs on a laptop. A better official app is enevitable at somestage though, I'm surprised Samsung didn't partner with Sky instead of just Eurosport for the S3. Probably not worth the hassle for them. Stupidity in my opinion on sky's part though as it makes their services a whole lot more marketable to support more android devices. Wouldn't be too surprised if apple were paying sky to drag their feet on their android rollout.

There are checks that could be ignored, or made to return false, edited in a similar way as 'cracking' the version so it works on all version.
Since I its not getting past 0% for my I can't really try it :<

Stumbled across this trying to get SkyGo working on my S3.
Downloaded cracked .apk and hiding root but when trying to use it the app tells me it needs to be updated and when you click to update it it takes you to Play Store and says "Your device isn't compatible with this version"
Is there an updated version of the cracked .apk?

Hi ,
Just noticed this thread and thought some of you might appreciate this tip i posted in transformer Prime forum few months back regarding Sky go.
Long story short i love F1 hate sky so friend gave me one of his sky device keys and i installed on to PC (hooked up to 42" Bravia) rather than Prime as you can stream Sky go from the Pc to tab/phone using Splashtop.
So basically 2 devices only having 1 registered obviously not full functionality of 2 devices but multiple screens and add more by installing Splashtop on more of your devices .

[Q] Words with friends update

The new update for Words is showing as incompatible in the market. Does anybody have a way to get it on the A500?
I borrowed a friend's phone for 5 minutes and used astro to copy it off, along with the Sony live view app..
No idea why it's saying incompatible, but it works fine

think it's the cross device compatibility, not to mention the 72 hours per turn... you don't have to jump on right away to take your turn and the older crowd can jump in.
i have a few games with friends and their parents... check it once a day, and i'm good
if they made a GOOD RTS on android that offers those 2 options and i'll be happy.
Does anyone else's crash (the tablet version) after you submit the word and the ad shows up?
I should be happy though at least this version I can use the blank tiles, without it crashing.

[Q] Order and Chaos

Anyone heard anything about when the tablet optimised version of this is likely to hit? I've got it running on the Iconia but it's not the smoothest experience. Much better on my Xperia Arc at the moment! Hoping 3.1 will bring an improvement.
when you say running how long does it last before it FC? I just walk for less than a minute it bam fc....
works great for me. Only the character select screen lags a bit. I'm using 1.0.1 on the leaked 3.1 build.
Mine doesnt crash but the display doesnt fit properly and it lags. However I am still on 3.0.1 so heres hoping it will work after update!
Sent from my LT15i using XDA Premium App
Wow OK updated to 1.0.1 and its very good, even the cut off parts are gone. Well what I mean is there is no more cut off well just look at the pics below I'm currently using virtous Picasso 1.0.2 and other was on prime rom.
How did you get it to run on the Iconia?
Market wont let me download because its not compatible with my Acer A500??
Edit: nevermind, did a search for all devices version and could install the bugger
Purchased it from a compatible device tho, just to be on the legal side....
Question now is: i wont get updates the normal way now because Iconia market does not show the game even if purchased, grmpf:
Guess for the long term we have to wait for a lazy gameloft dev to extend the compatibility list for the game (played about 2 hours w/o a single crash yesterday, so the Iconia can handle the game sweetly.

Yeah, same here. Times out every time
dont know if it just me but anyone have the "your system is not compatible"?
I been playing really good logged off then I tried logging back in and nada.
Maybe Gameloft finally detected the non approved system and blocked it?
No such issue here...
For me it force closes from time to time just after during startup (same applies to some other games/apps).
Also i had a "License invalid" once, but after another restart it was ok.

Same. It works fine on N1, I did get an error at first but I got it working. Its slower then the regular market, but I like it overall.
The new market looks really good and works very smoothly for me.

Movie section of Market doesn't work with rooted devices
If your device is rooted, you won't have access to the Movies section.
Nice, Google, nice.

Working on rooted defy. Movie section is there. But not willing to 3.99 to test it. Someday. Running good though. Looks nice. Kinda reminds me of wm7

I noticed that some apps vanish from My Apps in the new Market. I had about 4 apps to update in the old Market, two manual because of changed permissions. I left it as-is and installed the new Market. In the new Market, only the two apps without changed permissions appeared as updates in My Apps. The other two apps had vanished completely from the My Apps list. If I search for them manually they will still show up and I can update them though.
You may want to try clearing the data of the market app
Install the new market using the apk from android central.
I like a nice little improvement to the notification: it says "updating" instead of "installing" now
Yet, it is not performing fast enough... I feel laggy when using it. And the new UI looks like WP7 (though I personally like this new design )
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
so it's not just me thinking that it's really laggy ... maybe it's not the final version?
or maybe we now need a Dual-Core Phone to use the new Market
It runs fine for me on the N1 most of the time. The only lag I've noticed is when it's fetching the icons for the apps on the Staff Picks screen or similar. When the icons have been downloaded it runs smoothly. I like the Honeycomb/ICS-like design.
Downloaded Market from http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/07/12/download-the-new-android-market-v3-0-26-with-support-for-movies-and-books/ I am not sure when it will go live in my country so Downloaded from there..I love it but Kinda fell Lag.I think it is new so might take few days/weeks to fix it over it is SO COOL on SGS2 but I have a Problem I can't see Movies Option I think Movies option is not Available in my country yet
Yeah, movie section doesnt appear on my market using MIUI Rom.
Anybody else having issues with Facebook since switching markets? Logic says it can't effect of but since I updated the market, Facebook won't load. Happened immediately after installing the market.
don't be so quick to yell at google for blocking movies if you're rooted
it's pretty clear the movie studios wouldn't give them the licenses for the movies unless they blocked rooted devices
i mean, i'm not agreeing with the studios. cuz are they REALLY worried people are gonna ****ing steal ****ty low res videos off their cellphone? there's SO MANY other(better) ways to pirate these movies. but whatever

Grand Theft Auto III (On Sale until 29th Dec) £1.99

Just downloaded this game and it is absolutely amazing!!!
Especially with the fact that it's on sale at £1.99... I think the normal price is closer to £5!!!
Definitely worth the buy!!!
Sweet I downloaded it illegally off the net, because couldn't buy it, but love the game so just bought it from the market no its available :-D
I have strange lag spikes (lags for few seconds) while playing and on cut scenes.
Not sure why though

Not sure either mate, it's running absolutely perfectly on my Note.
I'm at work at the moment and all of my colleagues are playing on it and saying how amazed they are with the graphics and the fact that it plays as good, if not better than on the old PS2!!!
I can't believe they have squeezed the whole game into such a small file! It's absolutely crazy! All of the missions and all of the fun! Loving it so much! I can't imagine playing it on a smaller screen than the Note though! Feeling sorry for my iphone colleagues!!!
Also works fine on my Note, brought it yesterday for £3.20, so not a major price drop. Bring back memory of play it on PS2 during my university days.

Initial Download is about 30MB, and then it loads another 450MB or so . .
about 500MB all in all.

Guys, how do you get to play it if market says it's incompatible with Note? I bought it using the web version of the market and selecting galaxy tab it had on my profile that i used to have but no longer do but how do i get it on the note?

If both your Tab and Note are rooted, you can do a Titanium backup of GTA on the Tab, copy over the backed up files to Note and do a
restore using Titanium again.
You just need to download the extra 450mb file the 1st time launching GTA on the Note.
P.S. your Note might be incompatible if you changed screen density from stock 320.

Apologies... I guess it's subjective... I have movie files that are bigger than that and I suppose with the internal 16gb (aware that some of that is taken up by the system) and my external 32gb micro SD card, it doesn't seem large at all for what you get! That game will provide me with hours of fun!

Same here. I have the Desire HD, Wildfire and Note, and it says that the Note is the only compatible one. So i just bought it and it works fine
You probably don't play video games that much. Recent downloads off of Steam include the Witcher 2 (12 - 15gb) and Homefront (11gb). 500mb is a bit more than a DVD rip. Quite small really

Ok, I've linked a screenshot of what I see when I log into my Android Market... GNote shows up as: "3 Samsung GT-N7000" I'm guessing the "3" part is related to the fact that I have a "3" sim card in my note, although I bought it carrier free from Expansys. It's a long shot, but could it have something to do with the name that it registers as? I wonder this because you said that yours just says "N7000"
I don't have sound
Works fine on my Note here although the day after I downloaded it, it had disappeared completely from my Marketplace. It is showing again now though.
I am running at screen density 240, plus I installed the high res/gfx file. All you need to do is go into settings and adjust the on screen controls because they shrink and end up in the middle of the screen. You can move them back to the corners and also double tap to enlarge them. Screen is still plenty big to enjoy the game, the controls do not get in the way, and the high res pack is a MUST for the Note!

NBA League Pass Mobile

So I download the NBA app on my GS3 and Nexus 7. You can watch games live on either one. You can log into your League Pass sub or buy it through the app. So I buy it on my GS3 and it bypasses the log-in screen and shows the game. On my Nexus 7 however, it asks me for the log-in info. The app says if you bought the sub through the app you wouldn't be asked for a username/password. Anyone have any idea how to get it working on my Nexus? I might have to bite the bullet and get a microUSB to HDMI so that I can watch on one of my monitors.
No dea. And the n7 doesnt have MHL so youll be wasting money on the tv out if you buy it

I was able to copy the APK from my Galaxy Nexus (nba.comdigital.gametimelite-2.apk) to my Nexus 7 and installed. No modifications to build.prop needed like I expected I would need. Not sure if the GS3 is a different apk from the GNex though?
Video and everything works great. KaliKot, he was talking about using video output from his GS3..
