HBO Go - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am trying to use the HBO Go app but it does not show the video, I do hear sound. I am rooted on d801 using clean Rom xe on mobile. Is this an issue with the phone, the Rom or something else?

The app sucks...take a look at the reviews. CinemaxGo app sucks too. Same company handling both apps. Trust me, it's not the device. Frustrating over here as well

Yes I saw those reviews but nothing specific to the g2.
Ahh well

When an app acts funky I always temporarily un-root, but I always re-root before I reboot. It's a pain, but about the only way some apps will run. Do the following to temporarily un-root.
Try an app called "hide my root" you must hide your "SU binary" and uninstall the super user app. Then run HBO GO/ whatever app is not working. After using the app go back to "hide my root" and restore SU binary and reinstall super user app.
I do not have HBO GO, but I have to do this procedure to play my ultraviolet movies and play some EA games.
I am currently running the rooted stock OTA rom. Good luck.

Market apps not installing

I had two updatede apps today. They downloaded fine but won't install. Don't know if it's a Market issue or something with my device. Any ideas?

Ok. New apps will download and install but still have the issue with updating apps.

Usually an uninstall and then reinstall fixes apps that don't update.

Tried that. Also cleared Market cache and data. Done several reboots.

It is a google problem, the same thing is happening on the hero Just wait for them to fix is probably the only thing we can do right now
Same thing has been happening to me. I have just been clicking the update and then immediately clicking on the name of the app I just downloaded and watching the download and install meter and it works for me everytime.

The issue was with apps on the memory card. Had to move them to phone memory, update, then move them back to the card. Annoying.

Possible, maybe why they're having market issues
Not sure it's the Market now. Since I couldn't get Angry Birds to updated I tried getting it at GetJar. That wouldn't install either.

Ok. Completely lost. ROM Manager successfully updated but Angry Birds still won't.

I'm having almost the same issues. It started yesterday when I accidentally unistalled the wrong app. When I went on to market to re-download it and found it sat in the ongoing downloads going nowhere along with several others. I cancelled them and started them again one by one. They all downloaded and then failed to install. After that they all appeared in the downloads list but say "FREE" next to them instead of "Installed".
I know that, apart form the first app, all of them are definitely installed. Rebooting the phone made no difference. I also removed the memory card to see if that helped. At that point I managed to install the first app.
I put the SD card back in and the problem returned. Most of the apps I have installed on the SD card only appear in my downloads list intermitently, and I still can't install or update anything from the market with the SD card in the phone. I also am having issues re-installing backups and non-market apk's.
Have I done anything to the phone to make it do this or is this a Google issue? I'm using a rooted T-Mobile UK desire on stock 2.2 with ModInstallLocation set to external.
Thanks for any help or advice.
I also get Free instead of Installed.

It's still the server issues, until Anroid 2.3 is out this will probably be a problem
I hope I don't have to wait for 2.3 given how long it takes Verizon to release an update.

Watching rented movies from market using google videos

Hi. I've looked everywhere for the answer but cannot find anything relevant. I downloaded a movie through market rental. Went to google videos to watch it. But I've tried several methods and keep getting the following message:
"There was a problem while playing (31)"
Tried force stop, phone restart, reinstall app etc.
Any suggestions would be greately appreciated.
Thanks again.

I thought I remember something on movies from google not working on rooted devices. Not sure if it does a check for SU app. Might be able to rename it and have it work?

I remember hearing about that too. Not sure if the error message in the OP is referring to the root condition. But Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper (available on the Market or on XDA) might help. It has the option to temporarily unroot the device.
There was a fix for this a few months back, Try searching for it on PocketNow.com
Sorry guys I forget to mention that I am on official rom, no root.

Did you find a solution?
I have the same error message on my Archos 70 IT, when I try to stream "Transformers 3" in the app "Google Play Movies".
The Archos, however, is rooted.

Rooted can not play Movies :(

I think I am stuck but I wanted to make sure. I have done searching but all I can find is older posts. I just got my Nexus 7 and I installed CM10 last night. I just got the movie Ted and I got the digital version but it can only be played through Flixster / Ulterviolet. When I try to open their apps it see's my phone is rooted and will not allow me to play a video.
Is there any way around this? Would like to play Movies on my Nexus 7 but trying to figure out how to do it.
Thanks for any help.
thats their security, so no one will steal their movies. you can use google play movies. root, no problem
Well That stinks. Wish the was a way to use the OTG cable and not have to be rooted. I just do not want to have to pay for the movie again in the play store.

You can attempt a temp unroot, or see if somebody has released patches for those apps.

I had exactly the same issue as you did and I solved it using multirom. My internal Rom is rooted and one of my additional roms is stock google unrooted. When I want to watch movies i boot to the stock rom and I can watch films from flixster and guess what I also have Ted! Multirom is awesome.

In searchig on other places then XDA I found this on Droid Forum. Might give this a try.
OTA Rootkeeper. Use this app to "hide" root from other apps. Then unhide root after watching movies so you have the advantages of being rooted. Might try this first.
I tried root apps and they failed. I use sky to stream tv and whatever method I tried to hide root the app always came back with your device is rooted. flixster may work with root hiders. Good luck!

Ok just did this on my Infuse phone to give it a try. Both my Nexus 7 and Infuse are running CM10 roms. Flixster did not work with it rooted in my phone. I used OTA Rootkeeper and did the temp root on it and it worked on my phone!!!! Hope this will work on my Nexus 7 tonight. I do not see why it should not. This is perfect!

What is this file being created?

Hey guys been looking for an answer but only found a thread on evo 3d forums that doesn't have much activity, anyways I keep getting this file created every hour or so and its really starting to scare me maybe spyware or something. Trying to figure out why and where its coming from. Also attached inside contents.

I would download Avast from Google Play and scan sdcard and apps. Not sure what it is. Looks like spam-ware.

I found that in my phone the other day too. I don't know what it is, but it doesn't really do anything.
Could be a log file. I'm not sure what it is. I would scan again once it appears. Not sure if it is I needed file or not. I don't have a nex 4 but was looking into getting one that's why I'm at the forum.
You can try sd maid which has a system cleaner. Or change the files permissions if you are worried about it transmitting data. But I wouldn't mess with it too much until you figure out what it is.

You guys could wipe your sdcard with twrp if you are worried, but back up all your wanted sdcard data to a computer first. And then put it back on right after. I do that with my Nexus 7 sometime. Not sure if it is the same process on Nex4. It may not be necessary, not sure.

the app is identifying root on your phone. only way around this is to get a cracked version of that app that dosent scan for root when its installed or use a different tv app. you might also try lucky patcher as there may be a custom patch for something like that.

It's a crappy app anyways. When it want it to work, I disable super user (I'm using super user su) and it works fine. Make sure it's disabled when u install it as well
