It does take awhile for a fix to propagate across the country. Hopefully it will be soon for me.

I see the En Vivo and yesterday I saw the More channels, but now only see SprintTV and SprintTV En Vivo. When I get my Touch and it prvisioned correctly I should see the More Channel, because I have SprintTV Premium in my Ultimate Pack. We will see.

Currently my En Vivo is the same as SprintTV, but I had to download the cache file manually, so that could be why.

Yea, I got it the more channels function today after my sound stopped working and a hard reset and then the 1005 cab loaded (spint tv dosen't work on my phone after H/R without the cab. so thank to the community!)

I called the tech dept. today, my account is flagged for a fix and they told me a 51 hours timeline to fix, I spelled it out to them for all our behalf, seems like they got the message- that the release may have been premature with this program being patched onto your phone or whatever for a "figure out and fix later". I'll be waiting...

Both my sero'ed phones have unlimited sprint vision access and when I originally got my touch It had alot of the channels (not sure how many, but speed, mtv, discovery where there) until the prog. took a dump. My second touch never worked, then I just loaded the cab (with limited channels) and called them. I made sure I verified that I did indeed have unlimited sprint access on sero with the rep! even though my bill doesn't state that on both lines (only one) or even my unlimited sms?. I have been with sprint for over ten years, I think I got my 6700 early in the tv thing and am perhaps grandfathered in before they had all the tier service, Yea! Plus I really work them over on the phone, he, he... don't know how it happend, but all is good, my sero is at 28.50 a month on two lines, so if I get all the channels it's a real bonus at that price (seeins how I don't have a home internet connection to Sling.)

BTW- anyone know if you can sling with 2 mobile phone evdo connections?

I just want to make sure I dont need any updates or anything. I am getting some channels to work and some dont(i.e. CNN is not working). My question is, if some channels are working, does that mean I dont need any updates, or would the updates fix the other channels?

[No1ustad]

I get the 40 channels, without using any of the files posted here, When i first ran sprintTV it did an update and had 2 shortcuts. I deleted one of them. Everything still works fine, however when you right click and view your subscriptions, it says that i'm subscribed to sprint tv xtra for 9.99 a month, and gives me the option to unsubscribe. When i click unsubscribe it doesn't let me... ? Anyone else notice the same?- or is the cab file still something that'd help me out?

[adrian2pm]

has anyone gotten charged yet using sprinttv?

Okay, I got my Touch for my Mogul Monday. The STV started working the next day, but many channels were highlighted in blue, which means no subscription. The program did not autoupdate, so I went ahead and called CS and he sent me the text message with the link for the 1005 version and then all my subscribed channels started working. Here's a link to what I have, I have the Ultimate Pack, so I get the Premeir channels too. I haven't watched all them yet, but so far no problems, no cache problems or nothing.

Sprint also has what's called Sprint TV Xtra, which is an additional 35 channels of live TV, including SciFi, for an additional $9.99 a month. I have not found this yet on their site, but there are channel highlighted in blue that talk about it.

Here's a link to compatable phones. I don't see Touch or Mogul in this list, but it might be an outdated list.

ok i have been testing this on the 6700 now for a couple of days heres the only fix i can find.
1. You can either cook a rom with sprint tv in it or just install the updated cab (1005)
2. Get the cache file and save it in your storage card.
3. COPY the file to sprint dir. NOTE: if you make a rom use info A if you installed the cab use info B -
A: just copy the file in the windows folder
B: Copy the file in MY PROGRAMS/SPRINTTV in my device.
*****IF IT ASK YOU TO OVERWRITE CLICK YES *******
4. Your ready to go now.
from what i have found out every time you soft reset the next time you load sprint tv it will update and remove the cache folder this is the reason for the loading screen. so just to save time if you soft reset go ahead and copy over the folder. Also any hipcups that you might exp. do the same and copy it over i know this may seem alot but i have been running it now for a couple of days and have had no problams doing this to watch tv! O yea i'm on Verizon. hope it helps
