Able to get HBO Go working after upgrade

[atlantar6]

I did a google search and found this. Simply downloaded the .APK file the guy had provided and then clicked it. Phone asked if I wanted to install the app, and bingo. Watching something from my watchlist right now! I think in settings you might have to say "allow 3rd party apps" or something like that first, I forget if I did it.

Have Samsung Android Charge. Downloaded and installed HBOGO - JustAnswer


Woo Hoo!

Is that procedure for a rooted phone or stock? Your link takes me only to an answer site, but I don't see that issue addressed. The HBO to Go app is one that you can't even download post EE4.

Here is the link and instructions from that site I posted. It works for Non-Rooted Phones, I did it last night and literally watched 2 episodes of the Wire this morning. I have the update.


Open the browser on your phone and type in this URL: http://db.tt/Fl2CX0t it IS case sensitive so make sure you type it correctly.



This will download the apk(installation) file to your Charge and allow you to get the app back. HBO itself may have the app blocked from your device due to problems with it which is why you may not see it in the market as of right now as I can see it in the market on several of my Android devices and also on the Website.

Apparently this is working again from the market now. Anyone confirm?

Yes it is working again. But I did use atlantar6's procedure and I thank him for that.
