BBC News app on the Nexus 7 - Nexus 7 Themes and Apps

My Nexus 7 will be with me by Friday but I'm dying to know what the BBC News app looks like on it. Does it show the phone interface or the tablet one? I've scoured the internet to no avail.
Thanks

It says its unavailable and doesn't let you install it unfortunately.

Thanks for the reply. What a shame!

Give it a few weeks and I am sure there will be a solution, plenty of brits will be buying this tablet for sure.

I just tried the BBC News apk from my phone on the N7. It seems to work pretty well, widgets too. It doesn't rotate to landscape though.
The video links can be played back through your preferred media player.

iPlayer doesn't seem to want to play ball, notifies you to update Flash Player (which is blocked on the market). I already have the latest Flash Player from my phone on the N7, but so far I've just seen the spinning circle when it tries to play content. Will try again later when it's quiet.

The news app uses mp4 instead of flash thats why it works.
Try going to the iPlayer website on a browser you know flash works on.

Threads about apps go in the Themes & Apps section

Bump, working fine here BUT no widget. That is only on my phone, and seems to be missing from the Nx7.
Anyone know if the widget can be copied across from the phone (one x) somehow? I have root on both devices.
Failing that a decent UK news widget that can be stretched to a good portion of the screen.

myAT&T app not compatible on GN?

Android market doesn't even show that there is myAT&T app .. and market through web browser says app is not compatible with GN.
Anybody having the same issue or is it just my GN? I am on 4.0.1 stock.
Yep same issue too I was trying to find it the other day it doesn't show up in my market searches either.

Same here, I think it's because they don't like people using non-AT&T phones so they block any of their programs.

It worked on my N1. How do I extract the apk? (I'm rooted).
I'll post it here for your guys..
so I extracted the apk and installed it in my GN...
It doesn't work - you can log in, but as soon as you try to do something, a blank dialog opens. When you click ok, it brings you back to the login screen...

Its nothing to do with att blocking, it is not compatible with ICS yet and lots of apps like HBO also don't show up on market.
I believe we should start seeing more ICS compatible apps in the coming months.

That is funny, I just got off the phone with those clowns and no one knew what I was talking about. I pointed the service dude to the web and listened while he read it followed with a 'huh...not sure'.
I then did a search and came up with your thread (from today!!). Great minds I tell you, or are you just as bored at work as I am today
Either way, No love for ICS (phone variety) and no streaming like ios. Just another reason for me to hate TWC!!
Customer service has no clue...wish it was supported!!!
My girlfriend can run it on her (crappy) HTC Aria. Works well too.
I may have to try my old DInc (it is wifi only at this point) when I get home. I do hope they get the live TV watching working (like Direct TV has) shortly.
My girlfriend has an Ipad (I'm not an apple fan myself) and TWC has a NICE app people can watch tv on their Ipads with. Pretty impressive.
If they made something like that for Android it would be awesome!
The only catch is you have to be connected to your TWC road runner at home for it to work, so its kinda pointless really, unless you don't own a TV - in which case why pay for cable?
hey sorry every body i work for twc and they do not tell us anything about it i has a 5 min training while i was on a call with a customer about the app. also this was 1 day before release date. please just don't be mad at us on the phones.

Play Store showing only apps?

Hi guys,
I was wondering if your Play Store app shows only apps for you, or do you also see books, music and magazines.
Mines shows only apps, tapping the Play logo doesn't do anything:

}
When I go into browser on my pc, I see everything there:
Although here in Germany we only see apps and books usually I can approve that I could see both an hour ago and now the books pattern is gone.
Edit: back again
I had to reset to factory the phone, in order to get it working again.
I had the same problem
I had the exact same problem on my HTC One S, which by the way is an amazing phone, but I could solve this without factory reseting it. One of the things I did was deleating the cache of the google play store. If this doesnt work you can deleate all the data of the store without deleating other files on the phone, and I think that should solve the problem.

I haven't experienced that problem on any ROM I've tried. Are you in the US? Or are you using a VPN server or proxy server in another country?
It's not a bug, it's a feature. I wish it would show only apps to me. It is very annoying to see books and songs in search results for "angry birds" or whatever.

[Q] TBS, Cartoon Network and Adult Swim

Has anyone been able to get TBS, Cartoon network, or Adult Swim videos to work? I have uverse and can watch all of them on my PC but when I try to get them to work on my Note II it tells me "This content is not available on your device". It lets me log in, it looks like it authorizes, looks like its loading then BAM error! I would love to get them working. If anyone knows how to get it to work or can create the apps and force them to work?
Need to install flash player or reinstall new version of flash player.

No still doesnt work. i updated flash to make sure it was up to date. But I still get the same error. It is only when trying to watch an episode you have to login for. The others seem to work fine.
Screenshot the error? I remember netflix had an issue with cmw due to DRM might be similar with something to do with that if you are rooted or have a custom rom
I get the same error in all three. I have even tried un rooting my phone. .. still won't work

Is that in a browser or an app? If its a browser which one are you using?
its in the app. I get the same error in tbs, adult swim and cartoon networks apps. I can get to it work through the puffin browser but that doesnt work all that great.
Just got an update for cartoon network 25 mins ago and now it works. Tbs and adult swim still don't work. Hopefully they will be updated soon too.

okay.
what is the easiest way to change watch faces if you are using an iphone? just got this watch yesterday and signing packages and sideloading seems like a pain
Hmm we are the black swans on this . I don't know other way to upload watch faces and apps . I connect the watch to the mac through ADB and sideload stuff into it.
It is not so difficult as it seems as long as you keep things organised.
The only problems i found is that if the WF needs the android wear on the phone to costumize it you just can't do it, you will end up only with a default version and another thing is that you can't get info from the phone to the watch face like the iPhone battery status or the weather. I'm still looking for a way to do this but i just can't find it.
Cheers and sorry for my bad english, hope you understood what i tried to say.
Not sure... WatchMaker for Android is great !!
