had to take skygo off my laptop, not happy about that, but thats the only bad point so far.

Why not the xe though , possibly one of the most capable out there !!!

I have a rooted DHD. The program runs fine, however when I select to watch a channel, it goes to the 'loading' screen and hangs.

Daft why it won't work on the XE same phone as Sensation.
Is there a list of phones that do work ?

Well it surprised me given they've been saying it will work with the Galaxy S2 without qualifying it by saying that not ALL S2 versions work Actually it doesn't really bother me that much but it is mildly irritating all the same.


I can download it from the market, open it up and select one of the programmes, where they ask for my Sky ID. I then get a message saying the device isn't supported. A quick visit to the Sky forums then reveals that my version of the S2 isn't supported despite other S2s clearly being so.

Totally agree, how can they say a Google phone, mine is a Nexus S, is not supported, it is the stock o/s before any manufacturers get there dirty hands on it, a load of garbage indeed...

HTC Desire, HTC Desire S, HTC Desire HD, HTC Incredible S, HTC Sensation, Samsung Galaxy S and Samsung Galaxy S2. yes and only these phones

The developers of the Sky app for Android are not only incompetent but they have insulted our intelligence, tried to pull the wool over our eyes. Never mind got it working on a rooted Desire S. now need a Sky subscription

for the simple reason that no-one in their offices had one to try it on.

What an embarrassment for Sky, but I bet they don't give a toss just as long as their big spending Apple using subscribers pay up. Tthe more technologically ignorant out there will think this is an Android problem too.

trying to get it working on the S2 keep getting the following error

Media streaming
Sorry there was an error connecting to the stream,please try again (Error 26 )

any suggestions

Another annoyed XE user here. It's basically the same phone as the original Sensation!

Nice to see that XE owners appear to be the biggest amount of annoyed users, me being one of them. Lets abuse sky on facebook

Can we , sounds good !!!

I'm annoyed because it's a new, top-of-the-range Android phone but the Desire got picked ahead of it?!

I asked them on Facebook,

"Can you explain why it's available on the Sensation, but not the Sensation XE or XL? They're more or less the same phones..."

here's their reply

"Sorry, we have no information as to why they have selected certain Android phones John. pb "

Helpful..

me too, really frustrating as I've been really looking forward to finally having skygo on an android phone.

Well I got the excuse that different phones have different hardware etc aka the XE and XL are the best? Aka too advanced for sky go

Downloaded from the market earlier today and it's working fine on my S2.

Installed the test.APK from XDA and its working fine on my XE

Good old XDA. Proving once again that companies like Sky talk so much bullshit.

tried to do it on mine and it wont work , is it as simple as installing it , can you give me a run down please ....

I removed the sky version first then installed the test apk.
Restarted phone and launched skygo.
Gave me a message about managing devices so I deleted my other phone and then chose a channel all working.
