Hi Talla,

It's a very nice app but doesn't have "Ireland" as a country. I'm a Newstalk fan. Is there some way I can import Newstalk Podcasts into this app? I've tried importing http://media.newstalk.ie/podcast/26936/ using the "Import Podcast" function but no joy. Any ideas?

Ben

Maybe try the xml file?

http://media.newstalk.ie/podcast_xml.php?id=8620

The XML file works.

ON my old Nokia they used to have an app that put all your photos on a timeline by date. Is there one you can download that does something similar for Android?

Just recently tried Pocket Casts myself and I'm also a fan of the Newstalk podcasts. I just typed the name of the podcast (eg Talking History or The Right Hook) into the search bar at the top of the search screen and the app had no trouble finding them.

I'm trying to download juice defender for my GalaxyS2 but when I try to get into it in the market it just gets stuck on the loading screen, any one know why this is?

Try clearing your market cache (Settings / Applications / Manage Applications - find Market and clear cache).

Does anyone know if it's possible to delete a Market account? I have two Gmail accounts and accidentally set up both on the Market. All my apps are downloaded and installed on Acc #1 but the Market App keeps reverting to Acc #2 (which has only 3-4 apps on it) and I therefore miss updates to all my downloaded apps. Really annoying.

Help anyone?

I use google reader and google listen - both free. Subscribe using Reader on your computer, put feeds in subscription folder and they appear on your Listen app. Allows streaming and downloadin.

tTorrent suffices, but has an unremovable speed limiter of 250kbps. Never tried anything else tbh.

The speed limit is removable if you buy the unlock key. Its under More on the options.

Never knew that. I don't think 3's service is capable of going much above 250kbps on torrents anyway. :pac:

aDownload has no speed restrictions and can search all the major torrent sites for you.

Hi everyone,

Yes we have advised that the Sky Go app for Android will be available in the Winter, however there has not been a clarified date for the launch being released yet.

As soon as we know we will let everyone know.

Thanks,

I'm suspicious of that. I get 1.7mb/s download speed on my desktop and with aDownloader the fastest I get is maybe 200kb/s.

I was getting 1mb download speed yesterday on it although I will admit that its normally much faster than that using uTorrent on my pc.

Hi folks.

Can anyone recommend me an app for keeping me abreast of Premier League/general football scores?

ESPN score centre isn't bad. It has a widget you can put on your home screen, to keep up with scores.

i've tried a few of them - this is by far the best IMO.

Wind-up Knight looks like a pretty fun game, graphics are great too:D

TheMilkyPirate · 05-11-2011 03:47PM

Hi lads found a great app for watching tv on your phone. FilmOn tv.

Has a few english channels, ITV CH4 E4 BBC etc... Also loads of other channels a few sports ones and a few movie ones. The quality is amazing as well. Very happy with it

Have to agree on that. By far the best of what I've installed.

Tried that about 2 weeks ago. Requires Flash player to those considering installing it.
