I have searched and only found the posts in separate threads talking about the loss of Sprint TV, and most have not been addressed within the threads. I had Damage 2.1 ROM installed and lost Sprint TV after nearly a week. States I need to be a Sprint Customer to use this app.
I switched to the Fresh 2b ROM last night and had Sprint TV working. This morning I get the same message I am not a Sprint Customer.
I have updated the Build.prop file to show the 310120 and Sprint thinking this might help. Just curious if anyone out there with more knowledge than me has a fix for this. As I stated in a thread post, the TV on the phone is a great kid distraction at times when I need it. That and I like having everything I am paying for working.
Thanks
Interesting, I was thinking about flashing my ROM to one of the custom 2.X roms, however if this is the case I may just wait a while. Although I don't use Sprint TV alot, jniiya is right, it is a good kid distraction to have on your phone... Then again TV turns kids in to zombies.
I can run Sprint TV just find using damgeless, and I'm able to stream with no problem. I did have to restart my phone after I installed it though.

It's not a problem of getting on the phone. I have had it installed from day one with both ROMs. It works for a while, but then it gives me the error of you need to be a Sprint Customer to use this app.
I am thinking since these builds are based off the Eris it is sending some type of info back to the Sprint servers show it as a Verizon phone. I just can't figure out what it is since I have changed the build.prop file, and I am not familiar enough with these systems/codes to dig around and think of another place it would be sending back info as if it were Verizon.
This is not like a deal breaker with me in anyway. Just trying to figure it out for the future.
Thanks for reading the post.

Exact same problem here. It works for a while, then I get that error message. If I uninstall and reinstall Sprint TV (pick your favorite method), it works for a while again, but after minutes, hours, or a day (no noticeable pattern) I get that error message.
I've posted on it in several threads about this topic hoping to find a fix. People have told me to edit my build.prop file. I keep trying, but I'm new to this, and every time I try to add the lines below I have problems. The phone freezes during boot up, and I end up having to do a nandroid restore.
ro.cdma.home.operator.numeric=310120
ro.cdma.home.operator.alpha=Sprint
Several threads on this forum and others say this (or variations on it) will solve the problem, but it locks my phone up. I've tried with the =, without, with spaces before and after, and at various places within the file. I wonder if I'm doing something really stupid because I don't know exactly what the formatting is supposed to be. If anybody knows of a tutorial on build.prop, I'd be thrilled to use that, but I haven't been able to find one.
Been working fine for me. Running Fresh 2.0b2 since Flipz released it.
Not to hijack, but have you tried the TV.com app? Something like that I think I uninstalled it, but I thought it was actually better than Sprint TV...
Yep, I went back to 1.5 Fresh because of Sprint TV. Sprint just got ESPN and the NCAA tourney should be on. I am crossing my fingers that Sprint releases the update in the next week or so.

You do not have to add the lines just change the values. The lines are already in there.
This fix didn't work for me. It still tells me I need to be a sprint subscriber.

They're not in the build.prop on my phone. It's not like I didn't look for them. I even used the search feature on my editor. The only line I have that contains cdma is:
ro.cdma.privilege.timeout=120000

Sorry about that. What rom are you using. I am damage 1.0 if you want I can post the build.prop from my phone but I do not know if it will fix SprintTv because I do not use and I have not installed it.

No problem. I am also using damage 1.0, however, I see references to pancake (and cupcake, bikcmp) in my build.prop file. I was surprised by that. Is that normal? I did do a wipe (wipe data/factory reset) before I installed damage. In fact, I wiped before going from pancake to fresh 2.0 and again before going from fresh 2.0 to damage.
If you can post the build.prop, I'll give it a try and report back.

Sorry for the late post. I just pull it from my phone. Attached is the build.prop from Damage 1.0. Again I do not use SprintTv or have it installed so I do not know if it will fix it. You have to rename the file to build.prop and push it to /system/.
Ok so I'm watching ESPN all day long at work, and I turn it off so I can get ready to leave work.
While on the subway I try to access it and I get the "You must be a Sprint customer to view Sprint TV" or some crap like that. I'm like ok, maybe because I might be roaming on Verizon network its not letting me. So I wait until I have a good signal and try again, same error message.....
I tried restarting phone, disable and re-enable mobile network, and checked to make sure I wasn't roaming. No Luck.
Look for the Tmobile ported one
Has anyone tried it on Darch's rom. It's based off of the legend which is for sprint?
Can i get a link to the official Sprint TV APK. I cant find it. I have the hacked t-mo one. but half of the video is cut off for some reason

Here are the apk's. I got these from the Fresh Pre-Kitchen when I was running 1.1
This started happening last night. Can't figure out how to fix it, and I really don't want to have to hard-reset my phone :crying:
Here's whats happened so far...
1. Metrotube wouldn't launch (insta-crashed) even after a reboot... so i uninstalled the app.
2. When i attempted to re-install metrotube, it went into the queue, but is stuck on "pending"
3. Attempting to cancel or retry the download = nothing happens
4. Feeds in the People hub refuse to update. Instantly fails with an error.
5. messenger refuses to sign in.
6. "Me" tile is stuck on "3 new items" even though Ive already read everything in there.
7. Attempting to install any other app from the marketplace = error message.
8. Rebooting the phone multiple times has done nothing to help the problems above.
What happened, and how do I fix it? Since when does WP7 randomly just fubar itself?
Still having this issue guys. Any help?
Try pulling the battery if you can for 60 seconds and then try. Otherwise, given what your phone is doing, all I can think of is a hard reset as it sounds messed up.
P.S. If you have a recent backup try using Zune to restore to that.

Nokia Lumia 900, OS version 7.10.8779.8
Finally went ahead and hard-reset the phone. Everything is working again...going to take ages to get my handset set back up the way I like it again.
What happened and how do I keep it from happening again!?
Tell us everything you did in the past 3 weeks, and we can say what happened after that.

Can you narrow that down slightly? I'll gladly list everything I can, but "everything" is a bit broad.
Does the list I gave in the first post give you any clues? Seems weird that the entire OS would just screw up like that, when it was working fine just minutes before hand...
It sounds to me like a potential hardware failure, either in the NAND Flash itself or in the SD card storage (for phones which use that instead of soldered-in storage). That's just a first guess, though.
As for things to tell us about, were you messing with any high-privilege apps? Either apps that use privilege elevation hacks, like WP7 Root Tools or things like Windowbreak for Samsung, or apps which you marked as "Trusted' in Root Tools?

Well not quite everything. We don't need to know whom you're texting or stuff like that. Nice info would be if you tried rooting, sideloading some unknown app, attempting to charge without your battery, stuff like those...or if you tried some high privileges stuff, like the guy above me asked.

Like I said earlier, this is a Lumia 900. This phone can't be rooted by any known method, and mine wasn't even developer unlocked.
No high-privileges, no root tools, nothing. Totally stock and unmodified with only marketplace apps. It just decided to screw up one day and the only way to fix it was a hard reset...
Also can't charge a Lumia 900 without the battery, because it's sealed inside.
I followed the method to apply this update to my device when it first came out. I ran it for a few days and HATED it. So I restored back to 4.4.2 from my nandroid and all was well, except for the nag that wouldn't go away. I dealt with it for as long as I could before I had to get rid of it. I followed instructions on deleting the update file and renaming something else and then installed Autorun Manager from Play Store and made sure that com.google.android.gsf.update.SystemUpdateService$Receiver was un-checked (which strangely it already was). I rebooted my phone, and the nag was gone so I thought I was in the clear.
Well this AM I take my phone off the pad, and the battery is at 60% which is quite odd for a phone that's been charging for 9 hours, and I see that my data limit setting has been tripped! This thing used like 2 gigs of data in the background under Google Services OVERNIGHT!!! This is ridiculous! This is Android, for crying out loud... I shouldn't be forced to use an update that I didn't like! Or have to install a custom ROM for that matter, which I used to do on my phones (I loved cyanogenmod) but with GravityBox I've been able to do everything I needed to do with the stock ROM. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, however suggesting that I disable background data for Google Services will be unacceptable considering it will break a bunch of other stuff. There's got to be a way around this. Thanks in advance!!!

Out of curiosity what did you hate about 4.4.3? From a UI/UX standpoint, not much changed.

IDK if it was app incompatibilities, but I had TERRIBLE battery life and constant reboots. My device rebooted at least twice an hour. It was basically unusable. I'm no stranger to these devices and messing around with them, so I'm pretty sure it's not something I did. Normally I like to have the latest and greatest, and visually I did like the little changes. But I couldn't live with it, and I don't feel that Google should be able to nag me to upgrade and then obliterate my data allotment when I take steps to override it. Am I wrong?

Wow that's pretty unusual... As someone who's rooted I understand how much of a pain in the ass OTAs can be, since you liked some of the changes the update brought I think you should give it another shot, though - this time by heading over to the Android Development section, finding a flashable zip of Stock ROM doing a clean install. Don't forget to make a nandroid backup though!

Maybe a good idea... when I did my upgrade, I don't think anyone had made a flashable zip of 4.4.3 yet. I guess I could give it a shot!

Give it a shot, there are tons of zips now, just a matter of choice. Plus if anything goes wrong, you have a backup.
btw - I'm giving you this advice because I was in a similar position when the update rolled out. I didn't want to update right away because of possible bugs. After a week if nags I flashed a zip someone put together and things have been fine since.
Either way, let me know how it goes!
Another way would be to download the 4.4.3 factory images and flash system, radio, boot. The random reboots will surely stop. I've not yet seen any app which is compatible with 4.4.2 and isn't with .3
PS: While changing android versions, I always prefer to clean install.

Welp, I just clean-flashed the de-odexed 4.4.3 and everything is okay, so far. My device was nearly dead <20% by the time I was done flashing, so I'm gonna let it spend some time on the pad and then see if I have any issues. Keep your fingers crossed for me!

Since I got it last week it constantly says rs_9104_v20 stopped working. I went into apps all i see is rs_9104_v30. Not that i know what either is lol. I tried resetting to factory settings still does same thing. It also won't play my family guy game keeps showing peter with something about butt scratcher and incomplete wipe lol. Should I just send it back? thanks sorry I'm a noob when it comes to tablets and such.

Hey, I just noticed your thread while trying to find out some info about this same app you're having trouble with. Does your tablet happen to be an Azpen A727?? I noticed that this rs.... program is associated with these ads that keep popping up in my notifications. Upon further investigation I've found the app is installed in the system partition. You need to be rooted and use Titanium Backup to uninstall it.
My assumption is that it's some crap ad generating program that the manufacturer got paid to bury in the tablet. Funny thing is I have 2 of the same exact tablets and the other one doesn't have any issues! I'm going to freeze it with titanium until I'm sure it won't cause any problems, then I'll dump it.

This app install without telling you anything other apps, like browsers, battery life extender and other crap. I recomend you to uninstall it.
In the last three months or so my phone has been struggling. I don't know if it is a memory leak or bad memory flash as every so often the phone will be busy doing something and completely lock up. I'm having to restart my phone once of twice a day. I use Android Auto and need to restart the phone and clear all recent apps in order to get it to work.
I have tried factory resetting the phone, clearing the caches and installing CM13 but still get these slow downs and crashes. Is there anything else I can do or do I admit defeat and get a new phone?

Have u tried factory flashing? I've also heard of lol downgrading letting run to c if there's any difference than upgrading back to the latest. Another question is do u root your phone and if so do u use or tweak your phone? And my personal unfavored, what kind of apps do u use? Do they take all your memory? Try some of these and also think about these and reply back, I'd like to help you the best I can (I'm no super expert tho, the most I've done is replaced my nexus screen and camera parts)
edit: also be careful of those custom kernels, tweaking around those frequencies can lead to your phone spazzing , hint, hint, over clocking.

I have upgraded and downgraded the software but that doesn't seem to help. Apps are the normal social networking and utility apps. No fast paced games or other battery sucking apps. I haven't messed with custom kernels and OCing on this device.
Hmm that is weird, u even tried clearing the cache too hunh? Let's see, have u ever taken a look inside then? Maybe cleaning it out? I've had to clean my phone before because it wouldn't turn on due to dust and whatnot inside it. That's really strange that you've even factory flashed and that didn't help, usually that'll clear up the problem, the reason I could think of is its reaching that eol point because it's just that time or u didn't take care of it (this obviously isn't the case I assume), or maybe it got damaged somehow, or maybe a good clean. Idk I'm just throwing out ideas. But really tho factory flashing should've solved that problem, flash it 2 times in a row lol
