We need to edit the 1st post or something stating that this does not work. We all know it doesn't work, there's no need to post that it's not working on your device.

editing the first post sounds like a good idea. it should read... "only post if you found a solution to sprint tv on anything else but the touch."

Yeah, apparently there is a problem with folks too lazy to bother reading a few pages of or searching this thread. Perhaps we should be feeding them strange "fixes" and at least get some possible entertainment. You know, like.....

The fix is: fill your bathtub with water. With one hand holding your mogul (or whatever) and the other hand holding a plugged in portable electric heater, step into the tub. Then drop said electric heater into the tub while continuing to hold onto your device. After two minutes drop your device into the tub with the heater and step out. Unplug the heater, retrieve your device and allow it to dry out. SprintTV should now work fine for all channels and you should in fact also receive several porn channels. Hope this helped.

....worked for me!

Bro, why arent you honest and just tell them they need the Alltell version in order to work on the Mogul....

or i improved reception by placing it in the microwave and defrosting for 3 minutes

is there anyone who is working on this? or is it just a lost cause already?

Sprint is not allowing unapproved devices to use Sprint TV.

There is no "Cache Fix" for this. There is at this time no workaround or "Hack" as this is at the network level and has nothing to do with the software in the handset.

However,

You can go sign up with MobiTV as they offer a generic WM5/WM6 player which works on the 6700 and 6800 as well as other handsets. Mobi is the primary content provider for STV and the STV player is built on the MobiTV player.

SPRINT ULTIMATE SUBSCRIBERS

Notice you also get navigation in your pack with TV. Neither are currently available with the Titan/Mogul even though you pay for it.



Bottom Line - If you are desperate for TV, go get MobiTV

At XDA developers, there is a MobiTV trial which gives you three days free. Someone has packaged it into a cab with a reset program for the trial so that you can run the three day trial forever. And you don't even have to microwave it!
