Sky Go App UK - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is it possible to hack the sky go app to work on tablets and on JB?

In short no.
You can side load the app. But it just says not compatible when u try to watch anything

Sky Go Italy works on my Transformer Prime.
I side loaded it.
..you never know till you try, don't know why it wouldn't work...

I also would be very interested if anyone has the Sky Go app working? not received mine yet to test.

Any way to fake location?

I'm just wondering if there's any way to make my phone think I'm at a different location than I am. Specifically I'm wondering about the NBA League Pass app which blacks out all the games for users outside the United States, is there any way to trick my phone into thinking I'm somewhere else?
I think your post should be in the general area. Look for a proxy program on the market and use a USA proxy. Many free proxy's out there.
proxies are useless
i tried
app checks some other way

Maybe you can leave your phone at home while you leave the country?
LOL! Sorry... I couldn't help it.
I think that you can enable Mock Location but I'm not sure and what that does or how to take advantage of the feature.
try this maybe?
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/location/index.html
The mock location is removed once you exit that app... its been tried... cant seem to find a way to get it to work.
And how would leaving your phone at home work?
A) Were I don't live in the US
B) ... no point even putting the reason here....
lol...
anyways no idea how to get it done, but playoffs today!!!

Netflix showing compatible in android market

Not sure if this has been mentioned before, but today when I was browsing the android market through the browser I saw Netflix and went to it as my droid x is compatible and was going to have it send to that device when I noticed that android market had my A500 listed as compatible also. It sent it to my A500 and installed. It launches without any warning about non-compatible device. Though I get an error while attempting to stream. Anyone else get this also?
tryed looking up the netflix app 4 my a500 not showing for me
I was able to install the app from the market, but when I tried to stream it says,"Sorry we could not reach the netflix service. Please try again later. If the problems persists please visit netflix.com. (11000)"

I don't understand why they would rather have it working on phones first before tablets..I can't watch a damn movie on my evo 3d to be honest
i don't even see the app. I downloaded it a while ago and when I click the app it says this version of application is no longer supported (12008)
WTH the evo 3d has netflix now. I know this tablet is way better then some of the ones they support. Lets go netflix get your mind right

[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

Looks like its back on market now and updated for tablets finally!

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.

market doesnt give search results or some updates

ok for a week now the market refuses to give me any search results for even the most basic apps; Gun Bros, Dolphin, or Dolphin Browser, or nearly anything.
tonight not even aptoid will show up.
has google completely crippled the market for tablets?
anyone been having market problems? or know of a fix?
seems pretty wierd that it was working and now it isnt.
3 different roms and all the same
Search for any thing... it shows nothing.
Not even appbrain
Seriously... what the heck

ok i just tried to install a few apps. Apps that are advertised on the front page of the market.
It wont install. It tells me that "this application is not available in your country"
I am in the us of a baby.
But i am using a 32gb iconia.

so i submitted a ticket to the market support team and we will see how far it goes.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1560202
i tried these cracked apks on my rooted s2 and arc s and had no joy
but as you say, it works perfectly on my none rooted s3
good lad
Working perfectly (streaming Sky Sports etc.) on my rooted Galaxy S3, using Voodoo Rootkeeper to temp hide root
thanks for this.
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

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 .

Tried and tested and hey presto NOT working. Just says you need to upgrade if u select watch now and sends you to play store, which says device not compatible with your device. If u select cancel it just stays at channel selection screen. Unrooted stock rom LFB.
