HBO GO for Transformer?? - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know how to get HBO Go working on the Transformer.... I can install it on my Nook Color, my eLocity A7, etc, but it won't let me install on the Transformer - anyone know why or how to get around this?
Thanks!

They don't support the OS. Unless you want to **** with APK editing and whatever else they might try, wait until the TF and the app both support ICS.

But they do suport Android - I've installed in on other Android devices. Why would they purposely exlcude certain specific models for Android?

[Q] Android 3.1 apps to 3.0. Possible?

Will any of the programs from 3.1 install on 3.0 such as browser.apk. I presume not otherwise someone would have done it by now. I just cant help thiking what if no one has tried...
Thanks,
Kev

Considering that all the current honeycomb tablets have or will have 3.1 in the next few weeks, I don't think anyone is willing to put an effort into what you're asking.
I'm curious to see what the new browser is like on 3.1.

Are you seeing google movies? The new market looks a little strange on my transformer. I can't find the featured tablet apps or movies.
Wow it is badass

Yeah on the tf its an additional app.
On my nexus one out actually replaced the market. Guessing its not HC optimized yet
Looks like I will have to wait a little longer for google movies.
looks pretty sweet I guss well have to wait for the movies though:/ but is it just me or is it a little bit laggy?
it looks like not optimized for tablet, how can I revert to stock market app?

go into settings -> applications -> all -> market -> uninstall updates
Does anyone who's used the new market know if Google have improved
a) The damned search engine
b) A way of differentiating "tablet optimised" or "universal" apps from phone only ones?
(I know it'll probably be redundant by the time Ice Cream Sandwich comes out - but still)
I see movies on my phone

Has anyone tried it who is not rooted? While using temp root on my evo3d I don't have the options for movies but as soon as I reboot and loose temp root I do.
May be the same with our tablets. The movies only show without root.
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
Ok, I was able to verify that even without Root that the movies don't show up on the tab.
This is a bit frustrating.
On my EVO 3D that had temp root, the new market simply had no spot for the movies but I remembered that Google said rooted devices wouldn't be able to use that function. I then rebooted my EVO 3D and voila, I now am able to preview/rent movies on the market so I was hoping that you guys just had not tried that yet here since there is already permanent root for the transformer.
How is this not an option on our tablet? I don't get it.
There is an article that was written a couple of months ago about Google Movies which might be of interest for some people.
The new market is supposed to be for phones. http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2011/07/new-android-market-for-phones.html Read the title.
I have a rooted MT4G and the new market works just fine. I even have the movies tab, btw I like the new market, it looks great.
How is working on the TF ?
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
This works great on my Samsung Fascinate and looks nice. Haven't tried it on my TF yet but will later today.
Hey the next market is for phones. Wouldn't install it on your tablets, it's not even tablet optimized. Step backwards.

Is working super great on my TF so I recomend.
Its working better than the original.
You can unistall if you want to dont replace your original when you install so that means that you will have 2 markets.

Porting prime apps

i have started to port tf201 apps to our tfs and i think it will work since i got the battery widget and mynet to work on our tfs, so please share what you know about modifying apks and i will try to get filemanager systemui and other stuff over.
I put together an installable apk for the Asus MyWater2 (orca) wallpaper by pulling it from a system dump, deodexing it, signing it, and zip aligning it. The wallpaper installed and worked without issue on my TF101 since minimum supported API version for the wallpaper equates to Android 2.2
I used smali/baksmali to deodex the files from the system dump and instructions for signing and zip aligning can be adapted from the 2nd post in this thread.
To make installable do you have to sign and zipalign? I just deodexed and copied to system/app. Im having some problems deodexing some files, mycloud.apk.

Some of the apps you can extract and find another app.apk inside

Attached is an installable apk for the Asus Battery Widget from the Prime and a screenshot of it in action on my TF101 with dock (it's the one on the left). I pulled it from a Prime dump, deodexed it, signed it, and zipaligned it. Remember that you need to allow installation of non-Market applications (Settings -> Applications -> Unknown sources). If you download it straight to your TF101, remember that you need to use a File Manager to install it and not the Downloads application.
I'm really not too impressed by its looks and still prefer the one I created myself (on the right). If you're interested, my battery widget can be found over in this thread.
awe man i got them workin and i was about to post. i think i will change the colors a bit then pt in the market. i have made installable mynet by the way.

Is there any difference in the Supernote application? If so, is it possible to extract it from the Transformer Prime?

You keep talking about Mynet, but what actually changed with Prime on this app ?
i dont know really it looks different though
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium
Checked the screenshot for the Prime's MyNet version.
The music, photo and video selection buttons are no longer on top. It now appears to be in a configurable drop-down menu below the server selection menu in the left column, and there's a search function next to the settings drop-down menu, and a new blue/black theme.

there are a few new apps in the 4.0.3 prime update
might be more difficult to port due to the ics framework but its probably worth a try
I was just thinking that. could anyone link me to a prime ics system dump?

Update file

A few apps run out of the box from this update on TF101 HC
Ever think that when we get ICS, odds are apps we share in common will probably be the same version/build as from the Prime?

Apex launcher dock

Can somebody please tell if its possible to have a dock on Apex? I purchased this app thinkingit had that feature, but now it appearsthat I was wrong. Stock Asus Transformer running ics. Sorry for the dumb question.

The play store says the free version can do up to 35 icons in the dock. I've seen screen images that show the Dock settings option after the Drawer settings option. But on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 (just released last week), Dock settings does not show.
I'm guessing it has something to do with my tablet being so new....or for some reason, tablets are not worthy of this feature? (I mean, phones only?).

you can try this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.go.launcherpad its go launcher for pad.
not too bad has a dock. i was hoping apex would have one but i tried out the free one one and there doesnt seem to be any mention of a dock on it it.
i've run Go launcher on HC and ICS both work wonder full. and i pair it up with https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.tamanegi.wallpaper.multipicture&hl=en to have a single page wallpaper.
There was an update today version 1.1.1
It now has settings for the "dock".

Rooted Now what

Ok im been rooted for a few days now ....... well now im getting bored w. It anythng else can i. Do with it......
Well what have you done on it so far that required root?
Rooting gives you access to the system partition so you can do full backups with apps like titanium and freeze apps to disable them, etc.
Unlocking is where it is at if you want to mod it further and install custom roms, themes etc....

Rooting doesn't enable you to install custom roms? What's the point then? LOL
You can download an Ad-blocker app to block ads from the web and in a variety of apps. You can install BusyBox. More interestingly, you have access to the system partition and you can change sounds etc. there. You can get browser2ram which will increase the speed and responsiveness of the default browser, something I highly reccomend. You can also get LagFix which supposedly makes animations at least appear smoother.
Do backups of your system, app data, apps etc. with Titanium backup as already mentioned by sdbags.
A personal favorite is the ability to use the PS3 sixaxis controller with the tablet, which is only possible through the sixaxis app which require root. Hope these suggestions gives you something to at least fiddle and have fun with
