looks like the Jetflicks website has either been shutdown or has crashed. Their facebook page wall has deleted all user comments and all support methods are unresponsive (e-mail/phone). Anyone know what's going on with Jetflicks?
I have been having the same problem for 2 days.. Not sure what's up. Jetflicks has never been good about responding to support. Not sure why they even offer a way to ask questions. Hopefully they have not been shutdown..
Edit: if you go to the PlayStore (Market) and look at Jetflicks it says they are down for Maintenance until 3-28-12.
Really hope they truly come back tomorrow...they have the best mobile TV VOD service I've ever seen.
Their back.....
You might also want to try DroidTV Primetime.
It pretty much is just getting the same "free" shows you can get from ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX etc. websites. But it brings it to your phone. And your phone becomes a DVR. I have it set up to record new show episodes only when I connect to my WIFI at home. Then I can watch stuff on the go without using 3G. So Jetflicks and this combined is AWESOME!!
If you try this keep in mind the first time takes awhile. What it does is (I THINK) is it will have a server go to the Website and essentially "watch" the show you want recorded and at the same time record it to its servers. After which it will then upload it to your phone. So I think by doing this it goes through the needed loop holes to stay legal. This is what I think it does, but I noticed when mega servers were shutdown by the goverment, this program stopped for a bit.... so who knows. But just remember they have to get to there severs and then to your phone so first time takes a bit.
When you delete a show, you have an option to delete and permanently delete the show. "delete" removes from phone and "permanently delete" removes from phone and their servers. If you will want to download it again then just delete. If you will not want to watch again remove from phone and their server....

I have been subscribed to Tech News Today via the Zune software on WP7 and every weeknight at approximately 645PM EST a new episode goes live. Whether my phone is plugged in or not or on WiFi or not it never seems to get the latest episode. I've marked the episode I downloaded already played but it still doesn't download. I find I have to unsubscribe from the podcast, delete all previous episodes, restart my phone and resubscribe.
Does anyone else have this problem or know of a way to correct it?
Edit: the newest episode does not show in the marketplace list either until I reboot.

I have this same problem on my LG Quantum. I came intended to post this same question, but you beat me to it.
It looks like either no one know, or no one want to help. I am so disappointed with the Zune app.
I too am having the exact issue. Did anyone find a solution? I bought a windowsphone to use strictly as a Zune and the podcast feature is the prime reason. I already cant get wireless sync to work, so I was counting on the auto download over wifi while connected to charger.
You might have been better off looking for a second-hand Zune HD if you didn't want the phone functionality, but anyhow...
What's wrong with the WiFi sync? If that is a viable option for you, I'd focus on making it work first. Alternatively, just plug your phone into the computer every night.
I'm not saying there aren't solutions out there, but necroposting a thread from 3.5 months ago that didn't offer any solutions isn't a good sign.

Necropost, LOL.
Went phone route for three reasons. Cheaper $50 vs. $100+. Reason 2 , Bluetooth for bt playing in vehicle home etc. Reason 3 , I wanted to get my feet wet with Windows phone.
Wireless sync is a no go. I get error COODO7OA which gets no hits. Zune sw is on my htpc So I don't want to go to crazy uninstalling updating etc. So I found the OTA podcast sync feature in Mango and thought great just plug it in everynight and wake up with all my podcasts ! Unfortunately its seems to be broken. Some podcasts sync fine others require an unsubscribe,delete and reboot. Then resubscribe.
SOLVED
For those minor few that are in the same boat and find your way to this post, I believe I have found the issue.
Apparently the Zune checks as soon ass you plug in your device or sometime close to that. I believe the criteria is over 50% battery, wifi and 10.Minutes on charge.
The problem is once it checks it doesn't check again, and there is no way to force it other than delete podcast and all episodes reboot device an resubscribe.
So the real fix would be to be able to force it to look on command or different intervals.
What I am doing now is waiting to plug it in until after I know all my podcasts hit the servers. and then plug in. That has solved my issues. In the past I would plug it in at night early it would check, but some of my podcasts (Adam Carolla) didnt go live until after the check. So now I hook up in the morning and it pulls everything in just fine.
I understand this may not be ideal for everyone because you need the phone charging overnight, but I use my windowsphone as a bluetooth podcast player and its ideal.
TL;DR
Don't plug in your device until you know your podcasts are on the server and available for download.
Make sure phone is plugged in (dont need to wait 10 min)...then go to the podcast on the phone and click the unsubscribe button and then cancel, and then settings and confirm, it will recheck for more podcasts immediately.
Hopefully I'm posting this in an ok section. I'm not sure what the issue is, and I'm trying to figure out if this is a software, hardware, provider, or website issue. I am beginning to suspect a software issue though.
I have a stock HTC M8, and as of about 2 weeks ago, I'm having issues logging in to one particular website: http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/ , but ONLY when connected through my wireless provider. The main page loads just fine, but as soon as I hit the sign in button to try to get to the signin page, it hangs for a while, then I get the message "internal error - server connection terminated" .
Here's the thing though: If I try to sign in to the page while connected to a Wifi network, it works just fine, and will continue to work properly even if I turn wifi off, until such time as the page automatically ends my session and I have to log in again. It's just that initial log in that won't work if connected to a wireless network. Also, I can't log out either unless on a wifi connection.
Here's what I tried already:
- Tried to log in using my wife's S4 (also stock rom). No good.
- Tried Chrome and Firefox browsers. Same problem.
- Contacted the website support. They say my wireless connection is too slow. Speedtest says 80Mbps down, 30Mbps up, 31ms ping. Ummm... I'm going to say this isn't the issue.
- Contacted my wireless provider (Telus). They say they haven't made any changes the last couple of weeks.
The only changes I've made recently is that I updated Android System Webview. I can't even get a handle on what the heck this app is for (Typical review: "It changed my life! My acne disappeared, and I won the lottery!")
Any ideas? I'm at a loss here....
In chrome you should check on the requeat desktop page and give it a try

Sadly, I've tried that as well. No go on any browser.
That's why I figured maybe it was something HTC screwed up with a recent update.
Can you access that login with any other method on your htc
Nope. WiFi only. Every other attempt to reach the login page fails. Browser doesn't matter, desktop view is no good, manual or auto login is also useless.
It simply won't load the login page.
I noticed on my desktop that it goes from whatever page you click the login button from, to a log in page, and then back to your original page once you enter your information. It's that transition to and from that login page that seems to be where the issue lies.
I must be in the website you do not need to worry as your droid is safe
Sorry, but you lost me there...
It could be thatbi lost but i dont know coz at somd times i have same problem anf it goea away by itself so i think its a site problem
I thought that originally as well, but they claim they haven't changed anything and blame my ISP, my ISP claims they haven't changed anything and blames the site...
This is why I'm wondering if it maybe has something to do with android web view or the native browser interfering with the whole system since it started about the same time as I downloaded the updates.
You wouldn't by chance know where I could find an apk for the HTC browser 2 versions ago would you? That way I could remove all updates then install that and at least verify or eliminate a possible cause.
Yes i can tell you where is the befault internet brousef app present on your device.
Download ans install es file manager.
Open it. At the top you will see sd card tap that. A mwnu will open. In that menu the first option is / device select that.
In that search for system folder. Inside that you will find many folders but inside folder app and priv_app there are syatem apk
Your brouser app will be inaide one of them.

Hi, Forum,
Huawei y625 u51, android 442 here. Rooted.
My problem is with the networking user apps. All of them, besides chrome and play store, are unable to connect to the internet, having my phone connected.
So basically i have chrome connected perfectly, i read news, i read mail, whatever i want and it is all fine. Sadly, when i run skype, viber, or other user netapp, they sign me in, but do not send data and specifically give message "no connection", when there actually is one.
After i reinstall the app, it works fine. On the next day, it is all repeated - i connect and use chrome to surf, but when run skype or viber - it is to stubborn to connect i guess :d Thus i have to literally reinstall several webapps every morning after i wake up. This is a torture and irritates me heavily.
It has all begun, when i deactivated some google apps, that i dont use, in order to hide their icons from the menus. Right from the next day the above mentioned has started. I have them activated all back, but i guess the damage was already done and no solution but reinstall returns my ability to use whatsapp, viber and ect.
Any cure?
Greetings.
Ps: I have to admit, that i have pretty unfortunate experience up to now with android and i firmly believe to use it for a no further device i buy, if no major improvements are held. I feel like in a coop with it - restrictions, restrictions, restrictions.
Hi guys!
Tried the search but came up with nothing so here goes...
I must admit I'm not very tech savvy but I can follow instructions no worries
I joined mainly because my Samsung Galaxy S8+ (un-rooted) started to behave very strangely early this year.
(and I want to trick it up after warranty expires in August ?)
Short story is that my Samsung account got hacked (or it at least seems like it) and the perp was then able to control my phone remotely. It was incredible watching my phone do as it pleased and all I could do was sit back and watch. Funny thing is that I've never actually toggled the RC switch (find my phone)...
My local carrier (Telstra Bigpond - Australia) account as well as my Google account got taken over shortly after. This would have given whoever it was access to my 3 cloud accounts which add you can appreciate would contain some sensitive material.
Whoever is responsible could well be a member on here so "Hi, there!! "
I pulled my sim and sd card and switched the phone off so I could decide what to do next.
I got a password manager app, changed all passwords (lucky my partner had a spare iPhone 5S sitting around up I could get online) and factory reset the phone.
All seemed to be going well until a few days ago...
I got "timed out" on my Samsung account (is that even possible?!) and while I was putting the password in (on the Samsung website - silly mistake!) just as I hit next I noticed a few dots in a square pattern that did a spinning type of graphic over the password entry box.
Continuing onto the next screen where the two step verification was, which was to send a text to my phone to receive a code and bang! Before I even received the text a six digit code appears in the fill box on the screen (same spinning dots in a square pattern) right before my eyes and then I receive the text afterwards! The numbers matched!!
I’ve also been asked to enter my Google credentials on more than one occasion lately from being “signed out”...
I don't know what to do!
I've tried all of the popular virus type apps and a few file managers to no avail. More like I've been hacked than a virus?
I've removed apps and shut down almost all of them as well as toggling between mobile data and WiFi and restored the phone twice back to earlier backups from over 6 months ago.
I've only ever downloaded from the Play Store apart from just the once getting your better version of the Play Store XDA (LABS) app.
What might be noteworthy is when I was using Google's help function it said that I had a "modified Android" and to contact manufacturer. I can guarantee the phone has never been cracked open.
I can provide screen shots from DevCheck (FLAR2) but I really don't know what I'm looking at. I also don't have any unknown apps etc...
I really don't know what to do next...
Any advice please??
Sorry about the long post.
All the best,
Crackles
Took phone to Samsung and they wiped the device and installed current (Android Pie 9 w. Feb 01 security update) so was looking forward to having a play with the new os until I went to add my Samsung account details...
Entered the password then the 2-step security kicked in to send a text to my number.
The earlier 4 circling dots dropped the 6 digit code into the fill box before I even received the sms! Device (on it's own jumped straight to the remote control button in the Find my Device security section) then attempted to change the password!
Only thing that prevented that from being carried out was I had biometrics activated and stopped the action using my fingerprint.
Seriously no one has any idea on what to do?!
I also had installed a replacement sim card.
I also can't uninstall updates on certain apps like Google Play Services etc, and some apps either have a dead link (press it and nothing happens) or Play Store can't find the app when I hit the downloaded from Play Store thingy at the bottom of the app description page. Hope that makes sense.
As you said, they wiped the phone, which means they most likely flashed the whole firmware, so there's no way for any malware to remain installed. But for what it's worth, you can try to re-flash the firmware yourself using Oding to make sure the whole flash is clean.
If your phone really was infected with any kind of malware, it must have been a 3-rd party app you have (repeatedly) installed. Some apps like Google Play Services cannot be uninstalled because they are vital for system's (or rather apps installed from Play Store) propper functioning.
Also, even if you had infected your device, it would not be able to take control of your device to the extent you described because of app sandboxing, which cannot be broken unless the app constitutes itself as a system app (because every part of the system has to be cryptographically signed, this would break the boot and brick your device) or the user (you) would have to allow the app the necessary permissions to carry out these tasks.
Hey Kernel thanks for the reply ?
Yes I know what I'm saying sounds crazy and even the missus said I was nuts till I showed her.
I can't screen record any more either...
I'm noticing odd little things like when I pull the notifications screen down for a second or so the NFC, Bluetooth and nearby icons are lit up but then revert back to a if they were off. I've switched all of these items off in the settings so are they being sneaky?
So far nothing really bad has happened apart from not being able to put my credentials into the PayPal app. That's using both Last Pass auto-fill and manually entering the email and password. I've un-installed and re-installed many times and it's the same. I'm not going to add any banking apps just yet.
Facebook also got installed in the background about 4 times within a few minutes. Seemed odd to me. I think I've got a screenshot of that.
Malwarebytes found an issue with I'm guessing a theme I got from the Samsung Galaxy Store so I removed it, chose another and it seems OK.
There's still a few odd things happening like certain settings reverting back to something different from what I'd set.
I'll keep tinkering and post anything that stands out.
Is there an app or something that can check every file on my phone and tell if something isn't quite right?
I don't have a pc at the moment but when I do I'll look into Odin.
Thanks again for taking the time I know I sound like a lunatic and tbh I really wish I was haha!! :laugh:
Hmm interesting...
When I tried to upload the screenshot it stopped and said "bad request"...

Could all this weird bs be happening if the home WiFi has been hijacked?

Whatsapp does the same thing, autocompletes the code, before de sms is coming. This is not a malware. But, don't use password manager... Those can be hacked.
Really my password manager can be hacked?!
I'm using Last Pass.
So moving on I started to poke around the WiFi router and found the PnP enabled and my device was sharing with another device. I did not authorise this. I've since reset the router, changed the pin and access code, disabled the WPS and also factory reset the device that was "sharing" with mine... The owner of said device no longer lives with me. I'm just glad I confiscated the phone from him before he left.
When I'm researching possibilities of what could be going on with my phone the pages won't load. It's like my searches are being monitored and the data is being stopped. I tested this with my partner's phone (on mobile data) and the exact Web pages loaded right up on her's without a hitch! I tried again on mine and they just stopped. Pages would load straight away on mine if searching for something completely different like rc cars or bmx related content. Stuff to do with my phone just won't work ffs!
Like when I tried my first post on here. It simply would not post it up! I ended up having to copy/paste the draft and emailing it to another account that I made up on the spot on her phone. Hence the two usernames in this thread.
I got the 3C TOOLBOX app and in the app management section, Task Manager under service many of them are "custom entries" and I cannot un-tick, modify or reset back to the original version of any of these apps. Google Play Services was the worst. Pretty much every thing it was capable of doing had a "custom action" and I could not do anything with it.
Am I doing something wrong or do I have a serious invasion of my phone..?
Thinking about smashing this thing to bits and getting an S10+ ??
Also the Bluetooth, NFC & Nearby buttons almost any me of the day/night are on for a split second when I drag the motivation panel down. These are all set to "OFF" in settings...

this started for me with my v20 (and own v30)and updating to v8 android and it looks horrible imo.
then installing script blockers on ff and so shocked how much stuff is trying to install on my pc.
its a process. moving from gmail to protonmail, no waze (I now use a map or search duck duck go before-not an issue im good with maps), no drive, closed facebook account/no social media. they are not my friends. I have real friends. I dont need to see what they ate in restaurants. everything is disabled on the phone I can disable. but the only thing I use is whatsapp and that too I will try to disconnect from. maybe use line or viber.
it will take some work and some time.
not sure if theres an os I can install on lg v30 that would disconnect everything from google
I dont know whats available. im just asking questions. its a process to disconnect it all. I dont have the need to constantly look down at the my phone screen snapchat and all that stuff, just doesnt interest me. I prefer phone calls.
what are my options? if I need to goto a flip phone I will, but looking for something with a full screen
are old phones with windows mobile/whatsapp going to work?
