[REQ] Videotron Illico

Videotron just released their 3G network in Quebec and it appears as if they'll have an Illico app that goes with their smartphones.
If anyone gets the N1 from them, PLEASE rip the app.
Thanks!

are you sure videotron are offering the N1?
Or did you mean if anyone is going to use their N1 on Videotron's network?

That also depends on how many services you have with them. It's that price if you have all 3 services, $42.50 if you have 2 services and so on.
Still waiting for someone to rip this!

Download on the right. You have to give your cell number for a text message to download it.
Enjoy!

Wow, jealous in Toronto.

thanks. pretty disappointed that this doesn't run on wifi. probably for authentication issues, but there are easy ways to get around that.

I doubt they will allow access from outside their own network to use it.
If you need to access to your ilico or any other source on your system use a slingbox.
you can get one for under 300$ and listen to any tv show on the road (if you have a good data plan) their app is great as well! and no monthly fee..
P.s. if you check future shop they are way too expensive...

i've got the apk, but i'm not sure if they embed the account info in each apk.

Upload it an we'll find out!

I know I'm bumping a very old thread, but thought I might help.

don`t work on a none videotron network

We have to use their ****ty network if we want to use this android app. What is this dumb company. If you have telus or bell you just load the app on the market and use it...

Line2

If you have a Sprint Galaxy Tab and would like to get the feel of making phone calls try this app from the Market "Line2" you will be able to grab a phone # from any area code in the us.
I came across another post talking about this great app, Posted By dfullerman.

There's already a post on this.
It looks like you work for them and are just trying to advertise here.
The UI sucks.

1. if u take a look, I mention that there is another post talking about this, I notice that one after I did mine and for the record I call on those that have a Sprint Tab like I do.
2. if I work for then, at least I have something to do, over 200 people came across this but only u have to come up with something negative.
3. if u dont like the UI maybe others do.
4. XDA is a community for people to help each other.

I Have t-mobile's Galaxy Tab with Line2 & Google Voice & It. works great!

How would one go about cancelling the service after a month?......plus, do we need to register a credit card or something? My tab works off WiFi so I don't see how i'd be charged

There is no contract, if you want you can just go with the month program they would send you an email for your next payment, I did the $49.00 for the 6 months.
I'm using a pre-paid credit card

THanks for the prompt response.......so just install app, register and voila! Able to make phone calls?!?!?!

how can i tell if my HTC one m8 is refurbished or not ?

I googled how to check if your androind phone is refurbished or not , but the code number u dial on ur phone to access it doesnt seem to work on the HTC one m8 ?

Why would you be wondering?
Now you got me wondering...

Are you asking this question because you had to have your M8 replaced through insurance, or you're checking on a new M8 that you just purchased??

I might have fallen to hype claims regarding the htc's battery. But it doesnt seem much diffrent than my everyday use with the iphone 5s which have half the capacity... And thats after greenifying rooting etc...
Aside the battery, be nice to know i did not get a refurbished phone from an ebay seller...
But cant find the code that grants you access to see if device is refurbished or not

It was just posted, did you miss the 3rd post in your own thread??? dial that and hit send on your dialer, scroll through the options and you'll find out. Sounds like a bunk phone to me though if the battery is as good as the iPhone 5s! My wife has that phone and she uses it less than me and a full day she comes home with maybe 20% battery when i have at least 45% battery! iPhone has the worst battery life in any cell phone IMO! Even my work iPhone 4s i barely use at work for just text and calls and after a full day of work of maybe 20 calls and texts i have 35% battery left.

Guys, you have to hit the CALL button after the last #
Odds are, due to the complexity of the devices original build, they will never have a "refurb" device on the market.

No... I was being sarcastic. Verizon's offerings are terrible. If they were free they might be decent, but they do NOT justify any price.

Oh im sorry i meant do you recommend any other Visual Voice Mail apps, NOT Verizon Voice Mail apps, i agree Verizon apps are terrible and a robbery, i have been using google voice but find it a bit lacking and that's why i asked if you have any other voicemail app recommendations.
P.S Verizon financial policy's may suck but we cant deny we gotta love their speeds and coverage.

Only thing I know it will be possible (most likely with triggering OEM unlock in developer settings for non Verizon phones) don't know if it will help "flash" recoveries and such stuff on the Verizon phones, how is it now if you trigger it, it won't help odin flash anything?

You can't remove the battery from the S7 either and I meant wait for the new nexus devices later this year. Supposedly Google wants to design them themselves which would make them better than prior nexus devices and since Google has moved back toward integrating sd cards into the OS with marshmallow, I'm sure android N will as well which means the next nexus devices will have sd card slots.

No it won't. The Nexus has never had an external SD, what makes you think they would suddenly integrate one?

I'm actually not sure.
I had Google Voice set up on my previous phone and restored it with Titanium Backup. When I go to the phone's voicemail settings I can select Google Voice as the voicemail provider. If I try to do the "setup" from there it gives me that same error you're getting, but it still works. Maybe try setting it up on a computer from the website? It's possible that step is unnecessary.

Isn't Google the very reason most of the manufacturers were pushed away from external SDcards in the first place?

I thought Verizon was done with carried tied phones. I though you would just buy the phone out right, or on a plan like at Best Buy, and then activate the sim. Maybe I a mistaken.
