Sky Sports on T-Mobile UK £5 a month - I can't make it work.....HELP!

http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/services/mobile-tv-video-services/mobile-tv/getting-started/
I just want to be able to watch Sky Sports on my HTC Tytn, but for the life of me I can't find either a version of 't-zones; or 'web'n'walk' that has any links to it for me to follow:

There are two ways to access Mobile TV on your phone
Accessing Mobile TV through web'n'walk:
Open up the web'n'walk homepage from the main menu and select the Mobile TV tab at the top of the page
You will then be taken through to a page with three Mobile TV options including T-Mobile TV and Sky Mobile TV. Click on the option you want
Accessing Mobile TV through t-zones:
Open up the t-zones homepage from the main menu and click the Mobile TV icon in the centre of the page
You will then be taken through to a page with three Mobile TV options including T-Mobile TV and Sky Mobile TV. Click on the option you want

All I can think is that the wap sites recognise my device as not being a mobile, so direct me to the full version, so I can't find the right links??
Anyone know what's going on and how I can get both my sanity back and Skysports???

UPDATE - I've tried the web'n'walk demo on the t-mobile website, with a Nokia N95 you get this:
http://surf.yospace.com/tmobile/wnw/nokian95/
But with the MDA Compact, you don't get the TV or Games tab at the top of the screen.
Is there a way of tricking t-mobile into thinking I'm a phone? I can't imagine that it's because my Vario II can't use the content!

I had this problem after flashing a new rom.
Anyway, the answer to your problem is:
http://10.111.189.31
Type that into you web browser. Sky sports is really good

work for me just t-mobile-favourites.co.uk
im using t-mobile beta rom

t-mobile-favourites.co.uk doesn't work, probably something in the t-mobile ROM that lets it work. I'm using Black Satin. If you're at all registry-savy, perhaps you could have a look through the registry for any T-Mobile keys?
No probs if you can't as that IP address does work.
Thanks guys.

Actually, back-track, that ip address works for the t-mobile live tv, the 3.50 subscription, but not the Sky Sports subscription that's 5.00 a month.
Does anyone have the ip address for that?
cheers.

http://10.111.189.31/servlet/download?p=3Dwnw
thats mine

I get a 404 Not Found error from that one - the url doesn't look complete?

cheers for the edit, but the link still just goes to the t-mobile 3.50 subscription page, not the page that lets you pay 5.00 to watch the Sky Sports channels.
Help!!!

well if i do the £5 1 ill hav to just for going to the page
http://t-mobile-favourites.co.uk/en/mobiletv.jsp
you can choose on thet page

That link just comes up with a page not found error for me.
My head hurts! Why can't these things just work??

I've just tried http://t-mobile.sky.com and thats told me that my handset isn't compatible with Sky Mobile TV! More lies!

sorry try
http://t-mobile.sky.com/default.asp

I only actually got the TV application to work by using either a WM5 Rom, or the T-Mobile Test Rom, by going to the tmobile home page, the option for TV is not in the menu....

Ha ha ha, that gives me the same "Your handset isn't compatible" error page.
Am beginning to think that they don't want my money!!
What ROM are you running and is there any specific references to T-Mobile in your registry? I think I'm missing something that will stop the website identifying my phone the way it is at the moment!

Is there any chance one of you that has it working could export the registry to a file and email it to me so I can have a look at it?

I am using the t-mobile test rom. Before I was using one f the black roms. When it wasn't working for me, I just emailed t-mobile and asked them for the link and they emailed it back to me

What link was that, do you remember it off the top of your head and did you get it to work with the Black ROM?

Sorry it was the link I previously posted. This allowed me to access the tv..
However, after flashing the test rom, the t.v was already set up via web n walk and I was able to then choose Sky.
I think the easiest thing to do, if you really want sky sports is to flash the test rom.

I'm sure you can understand why I don't really want to do that for the sake of a few registry settings, so I think I'll try and find a fix first - I've missed all the weekends football now anyway!
My extended rom contains all the stuff from my WM5 T-Mobile ROM still, so the registry settings I'm after may well be in there.
I have a cab that looks likely, PP_pIESetting_TMUK_050906.cab should I just give this a whirl?
Do you have a similar file in the ext ROM on your device?

LocationFree for PPC

Ok - I am looking for some way to run Sony's LocationFree on my PPC. There used to be a solution called NetFront LocationFree Player, but it is no longer being sold. Even the places that say they have it - don't.
Is there any other frontend software that I can use. I don't want to changes solutions completely (aka Slingbox or Orb) since I use my PSP heavily with this service.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. (Or if you know where I can buy that software would work too!) Thanks!

Bump...
Im looking for this too, I just got a location free box. Anyone know how to get this working with ppc?
Thanks

Well you guys should checkout ORB.COM. Its easy, free!, and does everything.
It turns your PC into a server (location free) that just runs in the background.
works perfect on my tilt!

I need this too!
Anyone care to send me a copy? I'm having trouble finding this, legally or illegally ;-)
There has been a whole load of LFPK1s being sold off recently for £25/$20 by Staples USA and PC World/Currys in the UK, making it a bargain.
Thank you in advance. It's crazy of Sony not to offer this software anymore.

I'm also looking for a CAB of this...I've actually even emailed hadango, I'm hoping they'll eventually get back to me on this one.

I have Netfront Location Free Player
I am not sure if I can post it on the forum, or about it's legality. I don't see how it would be a problem since it apparently is abandonware now.
If I get the go ahead from XDA I would happily provide the cab.
EDIT: Attached zip of the cab file.

the cab actually wont help because there is no way to get a serial. trust me on this. ive even emailed netfront/access about it. serials only work on one unit and no one who uses this is giving up their code.

I'm a little confused. All the media that I want like pictures and videos, I can easily put right on my phone. The only reason I would want Orb would be to stream my cable tv. After spending the money on a decent tuner card, I could have just bought a Slingbox. What are the advantages of Orb?

any update on this?
i do not want to use orb as it means having my pc on all the time,
i would like to use my locationfree player as it works so well with my psp.
gutted if i cant use this

anyone have it to send me? i have bought it i just cant download it anywhere

Hi, I am interested in the cab for this abandonware software....plz. post a link to this cab. I purchased location free basestation 2 months ago.....i have htc touch pro and would like to put it to good use.
thanks

I attached a zip of the cab in Post 6 if anyone wants. I do not feel comfortable placing a registration key on the site, but if anyone needs one you can try to IM (please don't PM me, I rarely check it).

hi i'm intrested on this software and and i thank you for the NLFplayer cab
if you please can send me the serial key to [email protected] thank you

Youtube CAB

anyone able to make a CAB for the youtube app? seems like Tmob UK have removed this for some reason!!

I have an branded Uk HD2 with T-mobile PAYG sim and YouTube finds no videos! they must be blocking...

I need the Youtube program too!! if I put an original HTC rom on the phone as a replacement
1. will the youtube program work?
and
2.will the t-mobile internet settings be difficult to re-install ?

Hi,
here is the CAB.
with friendly greet
starbase64

T-Mobile aren't blocking the YouTUbe app. I suspect that the Youtube App was taken out in error as they haven't taken it out of any of their other devices (such as the G2 Touch), and that supports high quality YouTube clips, as does the T-Mobile Touch 2 and probably loads more of their handsets.

Make sure you get the childlock removed on TMObile. you have to ring them up to do this. It stops you viewing any user generated (potentially nasty) content. Crazy that it's on by default and they make you turn it off rather than the other way around.
I had to ring up twice to get them to do it for me.
Saying that, now YouTube works perfectly over HSDPA but not over WiFi.
Oh and I also removed TMobiles proxy that is set up. This was stopping Twitter from working so I don't know if that had an affect on YoUTube also
I asked TMobile tech support about the proxy and why it was needed and why it was added if it can just be removed but they couldn't tell me anything. They had no clue and could only advise me on what the settings should be.

Be aware to install this cab for a german t-mobile device!
after install, no videos in HTC album are playing.
Hopefully a working Youtube.cab or a fix for this comes on.

You can find the program in the windows directory, make a shortcut in start/program/
...

As Chimp said, TMobile block practically all video sites through the phones data conection, not the WiFi.
This will stop any videos downloading through the YouTube app. Only way you can get round it is calling them up, getting the block removed and away you go.
Some what annoying, when you give them your D.O.B anyway... surely they must know you're over 18 to watch "inapropriate" videos anyway!?

You can just log into the t-mobile website and untick the content block, no need to bother calling them up going through the countless menus.

Manila Facebook Tab

Hi guys,
Sorry if this has been asked and is a really obvious answer, but I've used the search function and I can find things saying "Yeah, great idea", but nothing that has actually been done to download and installed.
I've got an HTC HD2/Leo and I'm looking for a Facebook tab for the Sense/Manila 2.5 interface. A friend of mine said there is a mod available, but I just can't find it anywhere!
Any guidance would be much appreciated.
Thanks

never heard of it, but it sure will be nice to have it

only twitter tab

Never seen such a tab and dont know how effective it would really be..

I think it would be awesomely effective. I don't use twitter but I can totally see the benefit of the tab. I'd like to check my friends' updates like I check my text messages. The integration with my contacts is excellent, but I'm left craving more interaction. I'm still a little surprised that this hasn't been implemented before now by the OEM directly.
Anyway, add my +1 to this request. Snoogans.

I must confirm, that the first HD2 divice I had, really integrated FB in manila tabs. The second which I bought from T-mobile (after sending the first back as the second was better "deal"), unfortunatelly did not. Nor have any WM upgrade such tab involved since then. So I am also wandering if it would be possible to find it at least officially. And as e.g. the TV can be integrated in Manila (which is result of XDA inventions, I think it must be possible to solve the problem otherwise as well.
Thanks for help too.

[Q] Say what? Wi-fi internet sharing for Windows Mobile 6.5?

Hi everyone. I've been hearing mention of some sort of Internet Sharing application or addon to the comm manager, that would allow me to turn my phone into some sort of hub. I'd like to be able to use my phone's connection with my iPod Touch, (or perhaps, other devices), so my searching is what has lead me here.
However, I don't really know what the "defacto" modification is for getting this capability. I've seen several threads already. Also, they seem to lack in documentation. They come in cab files - would that mean I can just download and install from my phone right away?
So if anyone can recommend me a wifi sharing app, (preferably for the HTC Ozone), I would be very grateful.

Auugghh. The website logged me out, so I lost my entire post
Anyhow, I'll try and re-write what I had last time:
So I'd like to use 0.9.1, since it seems to be the last free version. I downloaded it and installed it ok, but I have no idea how to use it past that. Could you possibly link me to a guide, or detail it in here?

Well, I gave in at the airport and just downloaded the trial.
Very nice. I'm so glad that I can use a browser that was a least half thought out (safari mobile) rather than that Intermet explorer. What a waste of my unlimited data plan that would have been.
Although, I'd like to be able to use that free version of WMWifi if I could. So does anyone happen to have a guide for it?
