Transformers on HD2

[eXplicit]

The files for the Transformers movies on the HD2, are they easily accessible?

What format are they in?

[ppctester]

yes... MP4 without DRM
just sitting in a folder on the SD card

looked at the detailed file properties and they aren't even signed like how sometimes you can tell if an MP4 came from youtube or whatever because it has a google signature

because they're really not quality movies neither by the encoding NOR judging them as films, specially the second one

the only reason I kept them is in case I ever have problems and for whatever reason they want everything back to send me a replacement or if/when i sell it, i can sell the phone as it came OOTB

It's not on the quick link anymore, I removed that. It's among all the icons when you hit the Windows button at the bottom of the phone (middle one). I can't figure out how to remove those icons if I wanted to and Transformers has an icon in there.

In this case I deleted Transformers cause they were not that good that I'd watch them again so didn't want them taking up space.

Sidenote: did you guys see you get a free download from Blockbuster for Forest Gump and Ferris Bueller's Day Off? Another waste. Wish I could have had either 2 or 3 free downloads of my choice.

Anyway I did download Ferris Bueller just to test it out. But won't be watching it even though it is a classic.
