So Sony is releasing an app called PlayStation Mobile. It is currently available on Sony's website HERE for download. It will soon be officially released for the HTC One family (X and S mentioned for sure) soon. Our device (the whole HTC One lineup) (and other select few Android devices) is going to be officially supported meaning we will be "PlayStation Certified" (Sony's words).

What games will be offered?
So far, just indie games are mentioned. Games that are seen on the PS Vita. Games are $1 - 5 (stupid?). Here is a link with some info:
http://news.yahoo.com/playstation-mobile-launches-android-vita-30-titles-213100086.html
Does this look good? Anyone plan on paying for these games once this service is released? It was just recently announced, thought I'd give it a share since our device is soon to be officially supported. Is this a new big thing or just a flop?
Don't understand this post. It's already live. Install the apk and enjoy. Am i missing something.
Read the articles... Sony is working with HTC to make the One series 'PlayStation Certified'. That's the main deal of this thread.
The idea is: does this mean anything or is it just **** Sony is introducing to get more cash? Or are these games actually console-like quality or just mobile rip-offs.

I get that, but it already has certification and has since the launch of the One Series, there just wasn't content available. Here are screens of it from my device, working.

I could be wrong, but I believe that it's not available in all regions.
Crashes on launch on my stock T-Mob One-S.
It's because its not officially released for us yet, check the device list it says details will be announced later, there's a flashable on xda android apps section and androidpolice for the certification and it works I already downloaded and tried a game, it will get better as time goes and the onscreen controller is cool

I will if you tell me how. I have SGS tools.
i changed the device to ro.product.model=Nexus S in the build.prop to spoof the netflix app but still receiving the device support error -__-
OK so I did that. It should work according to some other forums I read. I was able to download the app from the market.
For some reason when I log in though closes after I hit sign in.

Rumors has it that Flash 10.3 has something to do with it, but it's also integration with the chipset itself that has a lot to do with it as well.
I guess I was one of those that skipped the netflix generation and went straight into online streaming. I use Amazon VOD for pretty much everything. No native video app those yet, just mostly use it on my google TV. I honestly don't watch TV or movies on my phone.

+1 on that. I tend to watch Netflix on my T-MoUS Galaxy Tab (just got it working on that platform) or my iPad if I'm remote and not at home.
It's really painful watching streaming video on my phone and I don't do that unless I absolutely have to.
Im currently in the process of testing a few things to get this to work on the GS4g. I was having the strange problem that the netflix app would go back to the home screen after I login.
I am editing the build props and trying a few other things out. So far nothing, but if I get it working I will post how to do it.
I did a little bit of research and it appears that we wont be able to use the netflix application at all unless we have gingerbread on our device.
So without a ginger rom we are out of luck, that is unless we find a workaround or they update the app anytime soon.
I came to this conclusion after looking through the Vibrant forums under the themes and apps section, they also are having trouble with the Application.

Hey guys don't forget the app was only released for certain phone models so most of us will probably need to use some work arounds.
Its working great on Tytung Nexus 2.7. If its not working for you, try this...
- Replace drmprovider.apk in system/apps with this file ( http://www.htchd2forum.com/android-...odes-android-app/?action=dlattach;attach=1284 ). It is the drmprovider.apk from the LG Revolution, which has the required restrictions for Netflix. (Don't forget to back up the original first, just incase).
- Change model name in build.prop to Nexus One (model approved for Netflix service)
- Install Netflix.apk from market (Link in post 1, old Netflix apps that have been floating around didn't work for me, just this one).
Restart phone and try it out! That did it for me, hope it helps on other roms. Good luck!
Props to poster of LG Revolution drmprovide.apk to the guys at htchd2forum, OP of this thread for Netflix.apk, my idea on the build.prop model.

I have been doing some testing for our web site and have come across the new playstation suite (ps pocket version 1.1.1.0.0) apps for the xperia play. Install both these apps attached and update over the one you have (only available on 2.3.4 software and up). Note you do not need to be rooted to install these apps will work on stock.
Screenshots in second post (res evil and gta2 are my psxperia games sorry).
So whats diff about this?
Well sony now have intergrated the ps store into the ps portable app and anything you now buy from the ps store will pop up in the ps portable games launcher.
Will i still be able to use psxperia games?
Yes!! it is still based on the version from the 2.3.4 software so can use the psxperia games from the version 2 converter.
Playstation store can i use an account i made before?
Yes!! use your existing psn accounts but if you have brought any of the ps1 apps from psn before for (eg. Ps3) they wont be the same and will have to buy again (cheeky sony)
Ps store if i buy a game will i have any issues?
NO!! We brought twisted metal 1 and it works perfect on this and using are psn account we where then able to redownload on other xperia plays and other playstation certified divices.

unlike android market you can buy from the uk playsation store if create a uk psn account use a credit card and you will be able to buy ps store games over in any different country. This also works for japan (jap account) store with different titles but only good if can speak it.
Attempting to install on my rooted R800i just keeps giving me "Application not installed".
Thanks for these, already had the store but the pocket app is what i wanted since i too brought Twisted Metal, and wouldn't show up in the app until now. Hopefully Sony will release this officially soon so we can see some updates to the content CTR, GTA, MGS, FF and PSP stuff hopefully

By changing the build.prop to the other devices you will be able to see games. They set out a collection of games on the store for different devices. The collection from the play and the S ot ion is different. (example. You can buy g-police on the play UK but not the xperia s UK) also the tablet has had access to the psn USA store for months going back to last year.
Ps if you wondering the games brought will have the play controls. It's yes it will state what devices it works on in the description. The apk files are all the same.

got one sitting in a box wrapped for Christmas. wife won't let me open it:laugh:been trying to get some more info on it on the MobileRead forums which has a Kobo section. for some reason everyone so far is having trouble getting flash to work. afaik flash should still be working on 4.0.4 and i would like to know if it is before i open the box. not fussed about GPS but would like flash working as i use apps like TVCatchup
I just read that the UX lead for Kobo has confirmed no OTG source
now I'm on the fence about getting it
It's still running 4.0.4. Wasn't otg not enabled on a number of devices with jelly bean

I don't think the android version affects whether otg is supported on a certain device. It depends on the hardware and software capabilities

from a quick check it seems to be tied to the kernel version.

This tab is just awesome. I'm thinking seriously about buy one.
Thanks, dude. Can you post any results of benchmarking apps, please?
Also... a doubt: can you tell us if the Arc have built-in USB OTG support?

Wow. Thanks for your replies. There isn't an Arc forum on XDA for me to post right? These thread is in the right place I hope?

I was given an Arc for Christmas. Nice piece of kit.
We will probably need more than 20 posts before getting a dedicated forum
For everyone else, I am also (half ass'd) working on a root for it...When time permits.
I right away installed go launcher for tablets and got rid of the stock "tapiture" or whatever they call it. Much more usable as a tablet now

Port our device to some nice third party firmware! I'd love to see CM10 running on our Arc. (I work for Kobo :3)
I do know our programmers are working on a 4.1 update sometime in January though. And yes, installing a launcher to disable tapestries and the discover bar really does make it a beautiful tablet. I personally use ADW launcher on all of my Android devices though. Looks great and it's quite fast.

I want to say that I am not a developer of this great Launcher, and all support is provided by the developer on Play Store (link above).
I am posting this APK because I don't like country/device restrictions, and this is a free app for everyone to use.
Looks interesting! Trying it out now.

Not available in my country. Please update ill try your other links but i prefer to get it from the store

I also couldn't install it through the play store but the apk did the trick!
very cool, it's just a bit too slow (on a sgs2) to replace my current launcher
the only issue I've noticed is following, when I tried looking for my friend Thomas, it first did show me his contact in "people" but then changed to the screenshot:
I had to select the second option before it went back to the first screen. Maybe less intrusive suggestions (as I don't know where Thomasville is, I also am not interested in their furniture :silly
But I certainly will keep an eye out on this one!

Hi supermooshman and others
Like you discussed and figured out- we still don't support the entire globe, but we work on adding more locations! We work on local content and similar issues so it takes a bit time.
I personally have a sgs2 and I agree it's a bit slow (it's been through a lot so I don't blame it )- we work on improving performance as well. All takes time, unfortunately.
Please share suggestions or bugs you bump into- we want to polish this app and make it even awesomer. Help us in this quest.
Didn't work in Poland.

Any chance of GB compatibility? Cannot install on Atrix or Photon.
