[Q] PS3 Jailbreak app for Android

http://www.engadget.com/2010/09/05/ps3-jailbreak-adapted-to-nokia-n900-palm-pre-in-wake-of-austral/
Engadget reported that the N900 and PalmPre have PS3 jailbreak apps, where you can connect it to your PS3 via USB and jailbreak it to allow for homebrew apps and stuff. Anyone know of anybody working on a port or version for Android?

idk if your G1 will work... It sounds like it needs a device with Clockwork and a CM ROM. I'm going to look into it more before I attempt to jailbreak my PS3, but from what I have read, the latest firmware update (out this week) will overwrite the exploit and re-imprison the PS3.

I was trying to look when I had time at work, but if the G1 has the MSM72K USB controller it should work, but i've not had time to find out if it does. But the USB jailbreak hardware that this software is based off of, would prevent the PS3 from updating to the new firmware. You only need to update the firmware in order to go online to use those features of the PS3. If you don't play online or do online stuff with it (like me) you don't HAVE to update the firmware that Sony sends out. So if the G1 has the MSM72k USB controller we should be all set. I'm pretty sure as well that there will be an update to the jailbreak software to get around the new firmware update soon. I don't think it would NEED clockwork or CM, just that who ever it was that got it working was using that setup. I'll be home in a few hours and will experiment a little and see what happens. If it don't work on the G1, i'll try it on the Moto Cliq (may have the usb controller). And if THAT don't work i'll wait for the HTC Vision to hit T-Mo and try it with that..hehehe. worst comes worst, i'll find a used N1.

Too bad playstation released a update for these things, there surely on top of their game!

If I were you, I wouldn't want to forgo the sony updates, as they are often times feature enhancing like the 3D support that's being added later this year.

this app is so cool and you can literally jailbreak your ps3 with a tooth brush and slipper

as long as you have not updated

is this posible JAILBREAK with the new TRUE BLUE metod??

Sony has been on top of their updates lately cause there are a ton of people out there that use the jailbreak just to cheat at online play with alot of games especially COD! I liked to use it just so I could copy all my games onto my hdd I've got a 1 TB drive in there but it's mostly the little punk kids that cheat and hack games cause they suck so much at playing them. Its pretty pathetic really what's the point of cheating? It doesn't make you a better player just lazier!

[Q] Order and Chaos (gameloft) ?

Gameloft just released Order and Chaos online for Android and I was wondering if anyone has tried it for Transformer yet?

I just searched for it on the Google and Amazon markets and didn't see it.

Market link: Order & Chaos Online

it starts then it says:
"your device is not compatible, please request a refund"
edit: just found a tegra 2 version. going to try it out.
Nope, not working. Someone said it works on the Acer Iconia A500.

Dude, you have to report if you got it working ! that looks like awesomeness =)

Maybe someone could try editing their build.prop to make it work? I purchased it on the market and it works on my Captivate. I saw a thread on the gameloft forums where it is working on Gtablets. I installed it on my Transformer but get the error message that it isn't compatible even though I downloaded the tegra 2 resource files and put them where they need to go. If a simple build.prop change could fix this that would be fantastic. I'm not rooted and left the cable at work so I can't root to try it. However if anyone rooted gets it working I will definitely be rooting. I was hoping that after purchasing it on my phone it would show up on my Transformer under uninstalled purchased apps but no go

no go. Tried the build prop from lg optimus and acer iconia tab. stil says device not compatible. I dont get why gameloft wouldnt make an effort to have this tablet ready on launch.I guess its honeycomb. Im so disappointed. I doubt they wil ever add tablet support. They are pretty lame with updates

oh how I want a fix for this. Until then I'll use my thunderbolt but this would be so much better on a 10.1 inch screen

There is an "AllDevices" version now available which install, updates and runs to a point.
I managed to create a new character and accept the first quest before getting a FC.
Haven't tried further so far but going to give it another go.
The screen doesn't seem to quite fit, a small portion appears to be lost at the top.
Managed to complete a few more quests before the next FC.
FPS looks sparodic and like I said the screen isn't quite right, some text missing from top of pop up windows etc, buttons take a couple of presses to register sometimes but all in all looks a good game and quite playable without the FCs.

nice, did a search for "all devices version" loaded my char up and I've had no isuues so far

What rom/kernal/version of honeycomb are you using? I installed it and it force closes after about a minute in in game

[Q] NBA Game Time 2011-2012/NBA.TV

Hi,
I have a request. Does some know how to make NBA Game Time 2012-2012 or NBA.TV app work on kindle fire. I tried through android market but it says that my device is not compatible.
Do you have any advice to solve this problem ?
(If by any chance you have the apk to install this I would really appreciate sending my liknk through PM)
Best regards,

I will ask differenlty ;-)
May someone from US who has access to Android Market, download NBA Game Time 2011-2012 and make backup of it and then post a link to a apk file so we can test if it works on Kindle Fire?
Thank in advance!

I need the app also. I have a dell streak 7 from t-mobile that I reloaded with the streak 7 honeycomb rom. Now the app wont install because it allows streak7 t-mobile but not the wifi that the honeycomb rom is based off of. Its too smart for its own good.

I pulled the APK from my Inc2, and it's odd since it's buried in another spot, not in /data/app.
I tried to install it on my kindle (unrooted) but it would get stuck at the splash screen. Anyways, here's the apk.

i dont think that will work- pkg.apk is for sprint broadband nba.

The file which was included above do work on Kindle Fire. I didn't try mobile league pass because I'm not in US.
I also istalled NBA.TV app which supposed to be not only for US users and it also works on Fire but it's not dedicated for tablet so for instance I can't login to international league pass because of screen issue.
Hope it helps

I was able to install it on my Transformer, using the above link, as it wasn't in the market for me, or any other tablet user. Everything works ok, except on videos I only have audio, no video. Hopefully they update it to support all tablets, including the Fire.

That's kind of weird though since I have a Verizon device. It was the only apk that showed up when i searched nbagametimelite
I was just thinking though that maybe it's getting stuck because it's trying to do a location check?

It wasn't for Sprint broaband only but regular one. The Sprint NBA Game Time blocks me just at the beginning, this works just fine
I chatted with customer support and they say that they are working on application for android tablets but they can't tell me when we can expect it though

Could you please upload NBA.TV application too?

The pkg.apk posted works perfectly on my HP Touchpad. When I went to the Market, it stated the app was only available on my Nexus One due to carrier restriction.

The apk.pkg works fine on my Kindle Fire with the amazon OS. was watching the free LP trial earlier

I got the same issue!!

seems kinda hit or miss. sometimes ill get a force close trying to access a video, then ill reload the app and be able to view it fine. works perfect on my phone though.
now, if we just had a workaround for the local blackouts, id buy this.

Favi Smart Stick

I have tried using this stick for a couple days and I think it has some potential, but the interface is horrid. I'd like to start a discussion about how to modify, root, or at least find some apps that can help make this a better media option.
Anybody else got one yet or that can point me in the right direction?
It comes preloaded with 4.0.1, plex and the ability to sideload apps, so it should be pretty straight forward

What about a custum 4.2 update? would be great with the multiply account function for tv of the familie :good:

Since there is a usb port, does it come with drivers for a computer? And is it stock android with favi's hand picked apps/ui on it, or forked kinda like a kindle?

I just ordered one of these with the keyboard. I should be here on Monday. I am curious to see how this thing works out. I just want to use it for Netflix and HBOgo. Everything else will be a bonus. I will write a small review after I get my hands on it.

I saw this last night. It looks interesting but one of the few reviews on YouTube was horrendous. Nothing worked right. But then again the guy doing the review could be an idiot. I'm kind of thinking the latter is true.

I like the concept of multi-account. I am not sure the 4GB version I ordered could handle too much data (I believe there are duplicates of apps when using muti-account in 4.2, is that true?). Regardless, I think the 8GB version would be better setup to handle that.
In the last week, I haven't used the stick at all. that is partly due to being busy, but also having a bad taste in my mouth from my initial use of the stick (lack of usability) and being really frustrated with force closes, poor responsiveness and having to switch out HDMI cables to use it because I have too many devices connected and not enough HDMI inputs on my TV...but I digress.
I see that the XBMC Frodo Release Candidate 1 has been released http://xbmc.org/download/
my plan is to drop that on the smart stick this weekend (via the USB thumbdrive, I assume) and see how well it can handle it. My hope is I will get 1080 output, the new audio engine, PVR support and other nice goodies in the latest XBMC development and when it is stable and working well, to be able to grab my current XBMC user options folder and drop it into the stick.
Then I will have all my favorites, subscriptions, local network music/tv/movie folders, etc easily ported form my ATV2 iOS XBMC to the smart stick android XBMC....
I will report back and would like to hear if others have tried something similar.

I will follow this thread. Very interesting thoughts.
Do you know if you can control it with your phone/tablet?
Would be awesome to make my Nexus 7 into remote!

you can control the stick using the Google TV remote app

Cool, thanks.
Do you have any idea if you can get a Google TV remote .apk somewhere? It's not available in my Danish Play store.

The reviews I have seen haven't been the best. I love the idea of this, but maybe its a little under powered. There are other ones out there that have dual core processors. According to Amazon, mine will be here on Monday. If its not up to the task, I might try one of the other ones which have dual core processors.

Ok, so it came early, and I was able to get it hooked up. I have been playing with it for awhile, and my initial impressions are not good. I don't know if it is lack of oomph with the processor, or terrible software, but this thing is barely usable for my needs.
I did download the googletv remote app. It works pretty well. Occasionally, it loses connection, but overall it works fine.
Initial setup is pretty painless. After getting everything up and running, I downloaded netflix and hbogo. Neither work very well. Netflix takes a long time to load and there is terrible lag. After a few minutes, it seems to get better. Because the app is made for tablet/phone, it doesnt work nearly as well with a tv, because of the lack of a touch screen to scroll with. It becomes an exercise in patients to get what you want on this app. The search feature works just fine, but for general browsing, it really isnt very good.
HBOGo is much worse. With big series such as the sopranos, it overwhelms the unit and things almost completely freeze up. There was no way to select any episode because of all the lag. I did a movie to load, but the resolution was subpar and the video is choppy. I have full bars and the Favi is right next to my router. HBOGo works flawlessly on my phone or tablet, but on the TV, it is really bad.
I love the idea of this thing, but i don't see me holding onto this unit very long. It really is a slow pile of junk at this point.

Unfortunately your experience sounds exactly like mine. I am wondering, hoping that the XBMC implementation may do a better job as it may utilize few resources

Upon reading more about the one from laptopmag.com, it comes rooted out of the box. and apparently although it cant reach 1080p resolution natively, some have been able to do so with custom roms, and being only 5 bucks cheaper makes it alot better. Thanks for those links!

720p is good enough.
I am looking at the last link I posted. The MK802 III. It has a 1.6ghz processor where the first link is only 1ghz.
Edit: Just saw the mk802 II on amazon for $37

I should have looked at reviews before I bought this thing, what a pile of crap... It's really terrible, so damned slow. I don't remember even my OG Droid being that slow at 1ghz, and it only had 256mb ram... I'd love to see it rooted with overclocking and CM10.1...

Ok, I've been playing around with this thing. I disabled all apps and processes which aren't necessary.
Stock Browser is terrible. I downloaded Opera and Chrome and they work better, but not great.
Youtube app works really good. No lag, high quality video and sound.
HBOGo is terrible on this thing.
Netflix takes a little time before it works, but it seems to be pretty good. After the videos load (which take too long), it has worked pretty flawlessly.
I uninstalled googletv app once my wireless keyboard came in. The googletv app worked ok, but was buggy. the wireless keyboard works much better.
Its still a little disappointing and a little unstable, but with some tweaks, it might be OK in the future. They have released a rooted access build. The bootloader is locked, so this will limit development. Because this thing was so cheap, I might hold onto it. I have been debating keeping it and hoping it gets better, or sending it back and buying MK802III. I have until the end of January to send back, so I will continue to play with it for now.

Just got my Minix Neo X7

First thing first... I was super excited to get this going....
After I collect myself, the first thing I did was update the new firmware, install XBMC that is recommended on Minix forum and setup RK remote control.
I notice 1080p movies has a bit stutter on the video, but 720p was great.
What's next?
recomended apps?
launchers?
accessories? - Next thing i'm picking up is the A2 airmouse
I only had 2 hours to play with it yesterday.................

You will find more on the MINIX forums Im an admin over their and till stick pc gets more mainstream you won't find a lot of help on these forms I check everyday ... I love xda I use it all day every day for my s3 and nexus 7.2 but not good for sticks/set top boxes yet
My name over their is keepinitdroid if you have any questions
But to answer your question here. I love TV launcher or use xbmc for your launcher I use pimp my ROM and ROM tool box to tweak several different aspects of the x5 and x7.
A really good app I love is videomixpro in the other forums I have a Dropbox link to the free version or you can find it on Google its kinda like Netflix on steroids but has a one time fee like 2 bucks.
If you like gaming the x7 can play almost every game ive thrown at it ashphalt 8 plays well plus a slew of emulators I use my x7 as game slash media center good luck

Thank You for all the help Brett.
I sign up for Minix Forums yesterday.

I have received my one a few days ago and waited to give it a proper try until i fixed my Logitech K400.
Soon i will add a few things i've run upon, let me say, minor annoyances, but in general the piece is running good, i am as speaking, currently updating to 005 release and will give it another try until the review.

I haven't installed the 005 update yet. I have been running Finless Bob's rom from freaktab, and it's been treating me pretty well. Strauzo's sdk2 one ran well, but i only have the minix crap remote, so not having the rkremote available made me switch back to the finless bob. We need to get some people who are smart devs to work on developing a great firmware

heh, found out about freaktab just an hour ago, that nexus thing caught my attention, might give it a try as i really need multi-user enviroment.
anyway, as i mentioned earlier, there are some stuff that bugged me a bit. one major problem right now is External HDDs, got two of them connected and none of them is mounted, i just get a notification that the usb storage can be safely removed. Stock firmware, ull notice 1080p is kinda 1080i, doesnt feel FullHD, but then i noticed everybody noticed this, and should be a matter of time until this is addressed.
Then the hardware keyboard needs more attention on this area. "Enter" key does not work in no app as a send command, whether it is a facebook send message or an enter to confirm a password. right click is back button, and moving around pages with two finger scroll is too sensitive (but i was so in Win and OS X with the Logitech K400).
Basically, Minix got not much to do except stimulate a more dev friendly device so it can be community rich, with little to adapt to i see 4.3/4.4 on the way faster then on phones definitely.
Havent done any gaming yet, nor stress tested it with some 1080p material, but using it for browsing and chitchat, flawless until now .

I have a small problem... Just rooted my X7. Everything works fine except there is no app to set root permission like supersu. Every app has full access without asking me. Should I just install supersu or what? I have no custom recovery...

I have a small problem... Just rooted my X7. Everything works fine except there is no app to set root permission like supersu. Every app has full access without asking me. Should I just install supersu or what? I have no custom recovery...

I believe you can download the SuperSU app from the PlayStore but not 100%
check with the guys from minixforum.com
Btw which link you followed to root your unit?

Imortant: You have to replace the adb.exe wich is old and does not work anymore. Take it from android sdk.
Should not be dangerous, because you can always flash a clean firmware. But use at your own risk.

I'm thinking about getting one of these tv boxes; not sure which one. Anyway....
Did you try Paragon exfat/NTFS or similar app? I know Paragon is free and works great for at least a single external hard drive, uhm with power connected.
notice 1080p is kinda 1080i, doesnt feel FullHD, but then i noticed everybody noticed this, and should be a matter of time until this is addressed.

First thing first... I was super excited to get this going.... I notice 1080p movies has a bit stutter on the video, but 720p was great.

So MX Player, XBMC, similar video players output interlace mode? 1sometimes with interlace lines? how to fix any jerky / choppy playback in 1080? doesn't MXPlayer and XBMC support H/W accel decoding? is there a work-around trick to fix the interlace issue?
Thanks in advance for the feedback.

Head on over to freaktab.com They have all you need to run 4.4 and OC kernel which will fix choppy video, check out finless 1.8 and lewys hybrid. Also a just Xbmc ROM
Scribed henceforth from thy G pad.

First, sorry for the delay, wasnt much around here.
As the post above says, freaktab.com is by far the best community regarding the sticks/boxes. How i see it, the X7 is getting the most attention right now due to its support, but the community is more alive from shared knowledge, and leaked stuff .
Regarding the technical side, i did try Paragon for exfat, and gave up since they only support that if you contact them, for some reason exfat is not really included on the app. And to be even more honest, i rooted and did not have any problems whatsoever dealing with hardware.
1080p playback is in its final touches, there is a rom based on the kitkat sdk sources released, it is blazing fast yet it uses an old kernel, minix promised that they're next move is going to be with a new kernel, so we have to see what that is going to bring. The only thing is, just like any manufacturer, if they release a newer device then the old ones are going to suffer from official support.
Those devices in my opinion are pretty much under heavy testing era, they still under-perform for the values they've got inside. The more community it has though, the faster they evolve.

Hi Brett,
Have you any idea about how to install and play games that requires downloaded contents ? I had no success with real racing 3, something wrong with the extra download requiring WiFi but even with Wi-Fi on, it still doesn't want to download it's content. I've seen peoples having similar issue but couldn't find any solution even on freaktab.
Im using hybrid firmware.
