Quick question for those that have SERO. What subscriptions show for your Sprint TV?

I've been on a SERO plan for well over 2 years and I've barely had access to any Sprint TV channels or subscriptions and then when I get my touch I get the following subscriptions out of the blue:

Movie Trailers
NFL Network
SEE Music
Sprint Exclusive Entertainment
Sprint TV Access
Sprint TV Premier
Music Videos

Is this normal because it seems out of place to me?

That's normal? Holy crap... I went from no channels to almost all channels just by switching to the Touch..LOL, I have everything except for Sprint TV Xtra and Sprint TV En Vivo. With my A900, MM-9000, Q1 and Q9c on my same SERO plan I never got anything more than:

CNN
Movie Trailers
NFL Network

As for it working, I guess I got lucky. Mine worked right out the box and I'm running the stock ROM. I got the typical prompt to update my version of Sprint TV to the .cab that's posted in here and all worked fine. The only thing I had to do was delete the extra/old shortcut from the Programs folder.

I actually formatted my Touch first, then did all of this and it worked. Good luck.

You should never need to reinstall the app. Delete the cache folder if you are having issues. my device>program files>SprintTV>

Also make sure that you actually close out the app. Lots of times people will hit the X and not realize that unless you set WM6 to close apps when you hit the X it will just throw the app into the background.

The fun bit is that the new version was released to fix the double icon bug.

Mine still works great with my custom 6.1 ROM.

I'd never pay for the service, but did try the trial when it was released as Handango's free app Friday.

It will work, it's just not worth it in my opinion.
