[Q] Google Play Movies and Root

[lardo5150]

I am still deciding on a tablet, TF300 is on the top of my list.

On my phone, I can't use Google Play to watch movies, says it wont work on rooted devices.

I assume this is the same for the tablets?

Has a solution ever been found for this?

It will be the same on any android device. As far as i know the only work around would be to unroot. I never tried it but otaroot keeper has a unroot option and re root. You could try it out and see if it works.

You can always use Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper to temporarily unroot,
or use SuperSU instead of Superuser, it has the option to temporarily unroot built in.

Haven't tried any movies, but I have watched several episodes of Suits that I purchased from the play store on my rooted tf300. I think they recently changed it to allow rooted devices to play things from the play store
