Google Play Movies - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Does anyone know how I can get my rooted gs3 to stream or play my downloaded Play TV shows on my phone?
Any ROMS that will work?
I am currently on Clean ROM and it doesn't work.
Thanks

Are you trying to stream from phone to ps3 or ps3 to phone? If its phone to ps3 then get this app... http://db.tt/Vd3t7QaO It's called twonky. It use to be in the store but now its gone. Hope this helps.

I'm trying to get it to play on my phone.
Since I am rooted the movie will not play.
Looking for a work around.

I'm rooted and my stuff plays. Are you on a TW Rom? Or an AOSP Rom?
Edit: never mind. It plays all of ten seconds before it hangs.

Try the Voodoo OTA RootKeeper, it allows you to turn root on and off, I use it for the Redbox Instant Beta and it allowed me to stream movies.

Sounded great, but didn't work.
I couldn't even play a copy of the file. Still got hung up after ten seconds as usual.

Everything seems to work till you go to watch the movie then it will only play for 8sec thru the app. At least I can finish watching the movie thru the TF's browser.
So you can watch the movie in the browser? 720p?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA Premium App
Yes sir. I launched the app, clicked on the video which launched the browser to make the purchase. I ordered the movie, clicked play and it asked me to play back thru the app or the browser. I tried the app and it would only play 8sec then stop. I went back to the browser and this time when it asked me to choose I picked the browser and it worked fine. Yes, in 720p
EDIT: Forgot to mention I was getting an message in the app player something about my rental had expired.
Also, it gives you the ability to display personal videos on a youtube style video wall. Now just gotta figure out how to make cover art show up, instead of the video snippet it uses. This is what I was coming on the boards tonight to actually inquire about - How to show movies with cover art from a screen I could choose from. Problem solved!
I am10 minutes into Hall Pass, playing right out of the app, tethered to my iPhone while in the car. This is super sweet.

so does it work or what can someone else please test the apps ability to play.
Ok I rented "The rite". I was able to play it in the browser and in the video app. Only at 480p though.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA Premium App
Ok it only played for a minute in the app. But it still going in the browser. Also I'm able to watch the movie on google tv.

What's up, neighbor in Orlando? I am in Vero Beach...
Super simple...for your 3G (NOT a 3GS, right?) you'll need to jailbreak it and find an app in Cydia called 'MyWi' or 'PDANet'. Both of these will allow you to both tether with the USB cable as well as via wifi and bluetooth. If you have a 3GS, and you happen to be running iOS 4.x, you can download a tweak called 'TetherMe' which enables the native hotspot tethering in iOS4. Good luck...PM me with any questions.

OK so were you on home wifi or 3g when you did this. And how come you were only able to play the movie in 480p. Were you playing it in 480p in the browser or in the app?
Thanks for trying to out
I was at home on my wifi. I played it thru the browser. Paying it thru the app only played it for about a minute. Don't know why it only allowed 480p but it only allow that on my google tv too.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA Premium App
hmmm the rite is a fairly new movie. Maybe it has something to do with the fact it was playing on the web and not on the app. Although that's odd because on YouTube when a video is HD it plays 720. Oh well thanks for answering the posts. Hopefully Google will release the in app video update soon.

[Q] can anyone install Videos? (by Google)

I have been trying to install Videos (by Google) from the market and every time I hit download it acts like it is going to start and then decides to stop trying to download.
Can anyone install from the market?

Having the same problem, though I don't know why you need Videos. The screenshots are of Honeycomb, and one of the reviews says rooted devices aren't supported.
Sent from my Droid Charge running GummyFroyo 1.9.1
I was interested in trying to rent a movie from the market and my previous understanding was that the Videos app was required. If the Videos app does not work, it is not worth renting a movie. I would also want HDMI out to work i.e. not be blocked like Samsung Media Hub.

I was able to download the app no problem. Haven't tried renting anything yet because its kind of a rip off.

Any apps as GOOD as music junk?

Music Junk is frickin amazing, it litteraly found every song...old, new, doesn't matter what kind english and spanish....too bad the last couple of months it just has been plagued by too many errors. It only runs for about a wk at a time then doesn't work no more. I've tried several others and they don't even come close. Gtunes is one of them. Whats everyone using? If possable please add a download link.
Soundhound. Its in the market. Had it with my Sense 4 on my Droid Incredible 2 and it worked decent. Found majority of my music.. the only time it didn't get it was with a couple of my indie/punk bands that never went too far in the 90s/early 2000s

Sound hound is great and includes lyric syncing to the song you listening too as well as download links.
Cole
free or do you have to pay for the song?
Music junk lets you download songs for free so I don't think soundhound is what he is looking for. I personally use groove shark and it also allows you to save the music on your device. You get a free trial with it but I heard you can keep clearing the app data for another trial

Music Junk is the bomb but I never can get it to work/ I have been using Tunee music lately. it seems like the server gets overloaded sometimes so you have to open up a couple of times before you get in to the system.
I honestly have 3 different Mp3 downloaders downloaded. If one doesnt have what I am looking for I try a different one.
Tunee music has been the closest thing to Music Junk that I can find.
What version are you guys using? I'm using 4.3 and don't have any problems.

Thanks for the repkies guys. Yes im looking for free app and its music. Funny thing...music junk worked on wifi the other night and now its working without wifi. Im gunna download tunee music too.

Google Play Movies

I am trying to watch my movies on my Rooted Xoom with CM10. I read that the app now allows streaming for rooted devices. This isn't the case for me. That doesn't work at all and I have reinstalled the app and rebooted numerous times. So here is what I am asking. First off is there anyway to get a real full functioning Google play movies app for my Xoom, if not how can I get the streaming to work?
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium HD app
I know that xoom users are using a modified gapps, I made a symlinked gapps for systems with small system partitions. I posted in the general area, but haven't got any feedback. I figured it was because you guys are used to using the xoom gapps. This is the complete gapps package, with everything included. We are still in alpha with CM10 since we got stuck at froyo, so only me and a few other devs have really used it. Our CM10 is not fully functional so I can't test everything, but everything I could test did work. Hope this might help.

[Q] Music Playback issue S3

I am having issues with Google Music playback. I am running rooted stock 4.1.1 and am unable to get Google Music working properly. It shows my playlist, and plays 2-4 songs, but then stops playing. The program will show the last screen it was on, with a pause button as if it was still playing. But it does not play the music, or respond to any button being pushed. I can still search through my playlist and even choose other songs, but they will not play, and it goes back to showing the last song it was playing. I have downloaded some music to the device and it seems to still play the music stored on the device. This has happened both on mobile data and wi-fi, though often more on data,

ive had the same issue, even after pinning music from the cloud to my phone. my workaround has been to close all recent apps and clear ram in task manager. it is frustrating though.
My phone does the same thing ever since the jelly bean update, I'm stock and not rooted. My fix is to use the task manager and force quit Google Music then relaunch it, like stated above. After that it seems to work properly for a few days. Sucks though because it always happens when I'm on my run during lunch and nothing kills momentum more than having to stop and do this!

Yeah, mine doesn't show up in recent apps on my task manager when it happens. I uninstalled and reinstalled Google music. Working so far.
So question, does this problem affect the stock rom as well or just custom roms. ?
This will be kind of a big problem for me since this is how I listen to all my music in my truck.
Well happened again today on my run and tonight at home on Wi-Fi, sick of this and all Google suggested was what we are trying what a bunch of crap. I'm trying something new, I uninstalled updates and returned it to the oem version and see how it goes. I'll let you guys know how it goes.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Well 2 days on the oem version with no updates installed and no problems so far. Looks like this might be a temporary fix until Google figures out what's going on.

I ditched Google play when it was doing what you explained. I remember buying power amp 2 years ago. Downloaded it and works like a charm. Downloads the cover art for all my music. And the equalizer brings out the best sound from my oem s3 ear buds.

It might be easier for you both to just post which version of Google Music you have installed. If you're on two different versions then you can troubleshoot better.

Technically you already have two music players pre-installed which is the stock player and Google Play. People end up downloading other players as those have better sound with and without audio enhancements along with good headsets. I also at one point had a play back issue so I downloaded another player and had no playback issues.
