Smile MLB At Bat 2012 Video

If anyone is interested in getting live video working with MLB At Bat 2012 on their Inspire 4G, this worked for me.

ROM: Absolution 4.7
Use the Absolution Tools to change to "Desire HD Branding" (Settings->Absolution->Aboslution Tools->Extras).

Make sure you DO NOT UPDATE Flash Player. You need to keep with the Flash Player 10.2.156.12 that comes with Absolution or you will only get audio and a black screen.

Sometimes it never starts the video. Just choose the other feed if this happens, or go out and go back in.

I think the biggest thing here is the Desire HD branding as the Desire HD is officially supported while the Inspire 4G is not. I don't know if that's AT&T being d**ks or what.
Galaxy Nexus (Unlocked from Google)
Smartphone History: Inspire 4G (great phone), Motorola Atrix 4G (got rid of quick), iPhone 3GS (ok, but screen too small), Samsung Jack (not a worthy successor to the Blackjack), AT&T Tilt (nice, but bulky), Samsung Blackjack (beautiful little phone for the time), Palm Treo 600 (fun smartphone, crappy phone for calling on)

Good fix man! Not all of these steps though apply to every rom though so I would suggest you post this in the Q&A for Abso so that everyone who uses it can search that thread and see this fix if they encounter this issue. Good find though man!!

I have found this also works with the latest version IceColdSandwich. Don't install Inpiremod (I haven't found I needed it).

So far, I've only tried it with the version of Flash mentioned above in IceColdSandwich.

Default No problem using MIUI

AT&T is pretty stupid about At Bat though. Like last year when, just before the playoffs started, At Bat became incompatible with my Inspire. Perfect timing.

I've gotten this to work in Android Revolution 6.3.3 and with the AOSPX ICS ROM as well. Install as usual, then use Root Explorer or similar to edit the /system/build.prop file. Change Inspire 4G in there to Desire HD. Save and reboot. I would guess that this will work on most Inspire ROMs.

Default MLB-TV keeps saying it can't find my location

I am not trying a fake GPS move. I haven't even left home. I'm just using a laptop.

Is this a recent problem? I've tried resetting my cable modem and router to no avail.

Any possible fixes welcome.

Thanks!
