Hi.
Try this one:

Make sure all trace of the old skygo is gone first
Here's the thread on SKY WEB SITE it's for the HTC one but the same download location anyway for same apk
http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=...4kACuasgMymtjgBObZd-ung&bvm=bv.73373277,d.d2k.
I'll post another reply with apk when back at my own PC instead of just on my android.

Hi, I have a cheap Landvo L900 phone, think the chipset is MTK6582??
When I try and stream skygo I get unsupported device. It lets me download and run the app fine. When I click watch I get the error.
As far as im aware the phone isn't rooted its just not a "supported" main brand device. is there any way round it? i use skygo quite a lot for streaming the football.

crazy isnt it, the app runs fine. Would spoofing the device id work?
Is there any other good apps out there to stream football?
Can you mention what the files where that you removed please!? Thanks!Just to report that I have successfully got skygo working on my LG G Pro 2 (d838) by rooting it with towelroot and using device spoofer from the market to make my device be seen as an LG G2 (d802) which is supported.
I tried to unroot using superSU Pro but this wasn't successful for skygo so I re-rooted and, using root explorer, found some additional root files in system/xbin used by towelroot to achieve root. I removed these then cleaned up with superSU Pro and voila, fully working skygo on an un-supported device which is not available in the UK.

Can't remember now as it was some time ago however, I rooted and unrooted my device in the same day so, by way of the file date, I removed all those files that had that days date on ie files that had been added by Towelroot.
Perhaps you can just remove the files in the folder that have the same date as the date which you rooted?
sky go app is awfull, streaming poor , loads of restrictions on devices and root etc,compare it too BT sport app which is excellent , it shows how far behind sky are with android development . Im a paying sky customer and i prefer to use mobdro, far better quality streams than sky

It's been know for a long time that sky has a partnership with apple. If you go back through this thread there are some posts where Samsung actually threatened a user for posting evidence of this.
Sky Go now on all phones!
Well, all phones with android 4 or higher supported on Sky Go version 4.1.3.
I've tried my Oneplus One and it works fine, but I have another slight problem.
I'm in Spain, so need to use a VPN for Sky, BBc etc, but on my mobile Sky still know I'm "out of the territory" unless I remove my Spanish SIM.
I used to have an app for changing the country code to that of a UK provider, but I think it needed root which would cause another problem with Sky Go.
Any suggestions?

Well it won't help with keeping your mobile service active, but it will at least save you having to power down and remove your SIM each time you want to watch sky: if you go to aeroplane mode, then enable WiFi, then turn on your VPN, skygo will work OK while you are without mobile service.
I feel a bit stupid, I didn't know you could have wifi on in flight mode!
This actually helps a lot because once I sign in and select channel, and can take flight mode off. If I want to change channel, I can switch it back on , toggle wifi which cause a brief loss of stream, change channel and redo.
So thanks for that.
No problem, but you'll find that if you come out of airplane mode while watching? Skygo will instantly stop working, and to get it to start again you will need to force close the app, go into airplane mode again then turn on WiFi & vpn again - the skygo app is permanently checking the sim status (for roaming), the ip (geolocation) and also the HDMI connection status. Any time you do something it doesn't like, the app just stops.
So, I don't think you can do what you propose, as soon as you exit airplane ode when watching sky, it will stop working.

Of course, if you have an O2 SIM, you can use Tu GO to keep calls & texts coming through over wifi while your cellular radio is off can you tell I watch a lot of skygo while I'm abroad

I live in Spain, but this is the first time I've had a phone that works with Sky GO (as I've always had a Chinese phone and it's usually rooted).
But, it seems like the app is only checking SIM status when I change channel. I haven't tested it enough to be 100% sure.
I used to have an app for fooling the Android Market that I was in the UK for installing gambling apps, betfair, etc. You could choose the MCC and MNC of a UK provider. I currently have MCC 214 and MNC 01 for Vodafone Spain, but you could select 23402 for o2 UK or 23415 for Vodafone UK, for example. But, I was using that on a rooted phone.
I've tried changing the MMC MNC settings under APNs but the APN disappears from the list after I modify it.

Hi, is it possible to stream Sky Go from a Samsung S3 mini?
We don't have a smart TV or chromecast or anything, but we have ps4, ps3, wii u and xbox 360 - I heard there's something called DLNA to stream to game consoles? Can you use DLNA with Sky Go on S3 mini?
Thanks for the help

14Sky Go More than 2 Devices
!!EDIT!! Some people have been finding when you create a new account when following this guide, the new account has the devices from the first account replicated into it, any modifications to the devices in the new account affect the original account, I am sorry but I think this is what is "meant" to happen when a new account is created. I dont know of any fix for this unfortunately. !!EDIT!!
Hey Guys, I made a post earlier in this thread stating I knew how to get round the 2 device restriction, several people messaged me asking me for instructions on how to do so, I didnt realise so many people had been restricted by it, however, I was at work and couldnt post a follow up then so here it is.
I am not sure where I should post this, but this thread seems a good enough place at the moment as here is where people will be looking at information about the android sky go app so here goes:
I am not sure if this should be possible via the sky system or whether its just a very unpublished "feature" but you dont have to do anything dodgy to do this, I noticed it was possible when i was setting up an additional user for my housemate.
Basically the gist of this workaround makes use of the ability to link multiple sky user accounts together, if you know how to create sky user accounts, the solution is as simple as to create some more accounts and add more devices to the other accounts. for those who dont know how to do that I have more details below.
I am not sure whether this works for people who pay for the online subscription rather than have the sky service installed in their house. I have sky installed and it works for me.
!!EDIT!! It seems people who only have sky go subscription cannot perform the verify your sky id step and therefore cannot create additional users, not sure if this applies to everyone but quote below from skimminstones says it doesnt work for him with just a sky go subscription !!EDIT!!
Go here and login using your original Sky ID /password:
(I dont think I can post links yet so you will have to make the link)
https:// skyid. sky .com/signin/mysky
Go to Profile & Settings > Additional Users
Click setup an additional user.
Follow the steps to setting up a new user, you need another email address and thats about it really.
Login on the unregistered device with the newly created sky ID/pw
you will now be able to register 2 new devices to this account, the original account will still have the two devices registered.
you can have 9 additional users so 10 accounts in total, meaning you actually register 20 devices, more than most people will need I would think
Good luck, hope this helps those that where being restricted by two devices.
Please avoid replying to this comment in this thread, pm me replies and I will edit this post with information on peoples success with this if you would like. I dont want to hijack this thread at all as really want to see the Sky go app working on my phone.
If a mod wants me to move this somewhere else I am more than happy to do so, but I dont think XDA has a specific sky forum :S14
Interesting link - I think I know why this is happening, let me try something, I'll upload it in a bit.
EDIT: Try the 0.1.3 version. I can't test this at the moment for wi-fi only device, but the app runs without a problem on my phone.11
Looks like this error is "live viewing general error" - has it ever worked? Could be temporary on their side.
Right, here's an updated version that should get people further on wi-fi only devices. Not expecting any video still yet though. There's more of you than I expected!
Usual disclaimers apply: I'm not responsible if your cat runs away, your device gets bricked, Sky send you a bill for "those channels" and your wife finds out. Use this at your own risk.9The .apk is below, please report whether it works.
According to Sky it should only work on:
HTC Desire
HTC Desire S
HTC Desire HD
HTC Incredible
HTC Sensation
Samsung Galaxy S
Samsung Galaxy S II.
And it only works on Froyo (2.2) and Gingerbread (2.3), so no ICS yet using the official app.
There are also some issues with root and DRM begin not able to see some content.
