HBO Go

[tsak6789]

Ok I managed to install Netflix via APK. Is there a way to do this for the HBO app?

 

[charley]

You can, and I did. It does not work, though. I expect HBO will eventually get off of their asses and update the app. I watch HBO go through the browser in desktop mode.

My Tab runs HBOGO just fine. I go on the website and sign in and play it.

What browser are you using? I am using Dolphin optimized for tablets and the playback is laggy and choppy. Won't work at all with Opera.

Just tried this out on Dolphin HD and its working fine for me, navigating the site is balls, but its better than nothing.

I can't get it to work on the native browser

In the address bar, type "about: debug" and press enter. Then, in the browser settings, go to UAString and select "desktop." Type "about:debug" then enter again to close the javascript console.

Now all websites will render the same way that they would on a PC or Mac, including HBO GO. It's laggy, but it works.

I hope that they make an app for our tablets soon. It's probably one of their priorities, right?

I have done the debug and still not working

Ever since the touch wiz update it seems like I have to redo this almost every other day or so its really annoying. Only certain sites seem to be impacted even though the Uastring was never changed. Unfortunately HBO Go is one of these sites.

Has anyone else had this issue?

I have had that exact same problem and it is very annoying. That along with my bookmarks only syncing 1/4 of the way, I'm seriously considering DL an alternate browser again. Are there any that sync with Chrome for bookmarks?

Dolphin HD is a great browser. Very customizable. Always in desktop. But HBO and now Max go are both still very choppy for me after a few minutes of streaming. Will have to wait for atrix apk like Netflix I guess. Some times I wish I bought an Ipad... they get all the apps. But then I would miss all my customization. The Galaxy Tab has turned me into a tablet interior designer.

Sweet! I just got it to work. It was only laggy for a few minutes.

Ok I take it back. It doesn't work that well
I just don't understand why there isn't an official app.

My problem with HBO go through the browser is that the faster my connection, the better quality the video HBO tries to give me. The better the video quality, the ****tier it runs on my Tab.

It's basically unwatchable on wifi. It's ok on 4g but it goes back and forth. On a good 3g connection it's fairly smooth but not that great picture quality.

how?when i click on computer it just reloads back the same screen with the ipad,computer android phone etc...it sux

I'm still having no luck playing this through Dolphin or the Android browser. It either gets choppy, or freezes half way through playing something. I wish they would just release the app for the tablet already.
