Sky Go is working ;)

Thought I would let you all know that Sky go is working on my SGS3. I check everyday and it's been updated. FYI my phone is not rooted .
Very happy now!
From what I've read and heard Sky has upped the game to prevent the new version from working on rooted devices, good luck if your device is rooted

I keep getting error 37 problem with the stream>??
Routed galaxy s3 with Voodoo Rootkeeper (Shows the phone as not rooted)

Try insalling stock kernel and use rootkeeper

Not working for me with root hidden via voodoo.
I'm on stock Samsung Rom. Stupid question but I'm guessing Im already on a stock kernel?

Sky go app in play store is still as of UK 11.16 BST dated 2nd July and isn't compatible with ICS. Where is the ICS compatible released version?

Forget about what the date says, I check it every day and it used to come up with "Your device is not compatible" at the top, this morning that was gone so I downloaded it and it works perfectly on my SGS3. Anytime + and all, happy days.
EDIT. I've just seen now that they have changed the description in the app and have clearly put there that it is now supported on the SGS3
Date is still the 2nd of July so that obviously means nothing.

I love Sky Go and have decided, on balance, that I'd rather have it than a rooted phone. Annoying, but I've gone back to stock to get it.
I don't think the temporary unroot/hiding root apps work here, unfortunately.

could you please post the APK?
EDIT: nevermind, did it myself. here it is (downloaded directly from the play store):
https://anonfiles.com/file/b141a753ee1187c821a79d0ec41db077

I updated to the latest version and it stopped working so i went and changed to stock ics same issue i eventually got it working today after i realised super user was still installed after removing the app it now works.
From this i guess you might determine that by having super user installed sky deem you as being a rooted device.
Cheers

We need a good dev to hack the apk to bypass all this root checking bollocks very annoying and well over the top if you ask me.

Can anyone possibly help me, I have an SGS3 on uk-three, I have downloaded from play store and although it works on my home wifi it will not work on 3G.
I get SKYGO ERROR
3G network usage is disabled.
Go to Menu - Settings - Network preferences to enable streaming on 3G.
I cannot find network preferences, if I go into mobile network there is no Network Preferences.
I have spoken to Three tech support but they cannot help.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your reply, Skygo now works perfectly, with a superb picture.

I really want this, but am very happy with the rooted features of my S3. Hopefully a rooted fix will come out for this soon.

TomTom works

Hi just installed TomTom on S3 and is working great.
Of course it is not officially supported.
Here are some screens.

Alternatively you can use Sygic which, while using it's own routing algorithms and UI, relies on TomTom maps and TomTom traffic data.

is this a cracked version? how have you installed it as its not showing in the play store

Hi, i've installed iGo My Way (witch is also not officially supported) and it's also working great.

+1 on where you got it. Play store will not show it for sIII.

You can buy it with a supported device and then sideload it onto an unsupported device... For example, it shows up when on an S2...

Can u upload and post any links bro? Thanks

Sorry we can not as that would then be classed as warez software.
All I can say is Google TomTom for android.

And make sure you have 3GB of space on your internal memory as that's how much the maps take!!

So what is this article referencing then> http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technolo...id-app-that-doesnt-work-with-top-devices.html

It saying that all top models was not supported but only takes a small amount of knowledge to get this working.
So buy it for HTC nexus then use sideload technique.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium

I am tempted to buy it and side load, but I would hate for there to be a HD version released and be stuck with the low res one.
If TomTom state that this app will be the same one that supports S3 I would buy it now.

Yer same but I bought it for my old HTC nexus just to try on the s3. Then gave my nexus to my bro with TomTom installed so I never really lost much to try it out.

S3 version please
Don't know why TomTom does not make a version that is compatible with Samsung Galaxy S3. I think that one of the more prestigious navigators should be available to most of the top phones.

I am sure TomTom will make S3 compatible version ASAP.

Its compatible with s3 now !

Hi Have two S3's and I installed on one and all works great, on the other tomtom installs but when I try to run it says can not connect to tomtom try again later any ideas?

I wouldn't worry too much about tomtom at this stage as, at the moment it is crap (imo) and others on the market (mostly cheaper) are far better.
I'm sure there will be improvements in the future and I would assume by then, most devices will be supported.

I have the same. I had the polish version of JellyBean installed and TomTom worked fine.
Last week I installed the UK version of JellyBean and now TomTom is not working anymore.
"Can't connect to TomTom, please try again later"
On another S3 with ICS, TomTom issn't working with the same error.
On another S3 still with the polish version of JellyBean, TomTom is still working.

[Q] Peel Working on Custom Rom

Hey guys I don't know if its been addressed somewhere else but I can't get peel to work on any custom rom I've installed besides the time when i rooted the tab and had the stock rom. Is there anyway to get the ir blaster to work on a custom rom or any custom jelly bean rom that actually has the ir blaster working?

well it has been covered, and is in the OP of just about EVERY custom ROM, IR BLASTER DOES NOT WORK ON CYANOGEN OR AOKP.
but all is not lost there are a select few custom ROMs based on the STOCK ROM that have working IR blaster, for the 7" model do a search for Romswell (4.0.4 ICS) or Tab2Lite (4.1.1 JB) and I believe there is another. Don't know what your choices are for the 10.1 model (if that is what you have, YOU DIDN'T SPECIFY).

I figured just thought I'd ask. another question you might be able to help me with adfree app doesn't work either says that the app is too old but I download it straight from the market do I don't know why....at the moment I'm using a host file I downloaded online and seems to be working fine but wanted to know why adfree doesn't work,I know there is other apps but I've always used adfree on my phones and I guess I stick to what I know.Lol

Yeah, I saw something about that the other day:
you have this version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DEsImNvbS5iaWd0aW5jYW4uYW5kcm9pZC5hZGZyZWUiXQ..
and you need this version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...51bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5iaWd0aW5jYW4uYWRmcmVlIl0.
they "remade" the app for some security reason or something.

Ah ok thanks I never noticed they had two apps lol

Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app

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?

navigon usa does not work

Hello, I am able to download the navigon usa (4.6 or 4.7) onto my rooted galaxy s4 without any problems. However, I can not download the map for individual states for some reason. I have tried with almost all custom roms, and I have never successed. It used to work really nice on rooted galaxy s3. Can someone please shed some lights on this? Thanks so much.

Google maps not working good enough because I find it to work perfectly on a rooted stock or custom ROM. What's your main gripe with maps

The reason I have to used Navigon USA because it does not use my data and it uses satellite. That's why it's convenient. Thanks.

Navigon works fine for me on the S4 with both stock & AOSP ROM's. But it has been a few weeks since I've had to download any new maps.
Could be their server is having issues. Or maybe your account with them is having issues?

I don't think its server has problems since I've been tried everyday for the last few weeks. I've used to install on my rooted Galaxy s3 without any problems at all. Whenever I've tried to install on my rooted Galaxy s4 and I kept getting this message 'the download may take some time due to the size of files involved..... ....' What version are you currently using and where can I download it for free? Thanks so much.

Oh OK I didn't know that thanks for the info
