Like hundreds of other people i am unable to download the tivo app to operate my box . Why dont virgin put this app on their site with support. I have a htc wildfire and it keeps telling me it is not compatible . Ive tried phone reset and changed gmail and still no joy can anyone help.

It's saying it's not compatible, because it's not compatible.

Unfortunately the HTC Wildfire's screen size and resolution are too low for the app

The VM app is a tvguide for setting remote recordings. It will not operate or control your TiVo.

I have the tivo app on my wildfire s but it wont load on a family members wildfire ive checked the specs and its high enough .

The Wildfire S has a higher screen resolution than the original Wildfire

The original Wildfire is not compatible and the app will not run on it

hi ben checked specs again and the app requires andriod phone 2.1 the wildfire is 2.2

The OS is not the issue. As Ben has now said twice, the issue is the screen resolution. It doesn't matter how up to date the phone OS is, if the screen resolution is too low, it's too low.

Ben may of said twice mate but that doesnt mean i understood him less attitude more constructive help next time .

i have the same problem with the seagate goflex remote app .... works on wildfire s but not on original wildfire even though it says android 2.1 is required

its purely down to screen resolution

the annoying thing is i only got the wildfire 2 months ago and as it was a free upgrade i signed up for a new 18 month contract so i'm stuck with it

Same here a family member got s and theve had no probs . Ive checked supported phone on andriod market and it clearly shows wildfire as compatible what a bummer.

Again only the Wildfire S is compatible. The low 320x240 res of the original Wildfire is not high enough to display the TiVo record app.

yeah we get it mate less of the attitude (again)

pk1 · 13-11-2011, 10:58

I am having problems with Samsung Galaxy S, i can download the app, but will not do anything else.

Sean1234567, if you want to improve your reputation a bit, I would suggest you lose your own attitude. If you have problems understanding a post, ask the poster to explain what they meant.

Also, it's not a good idea to have a go at people (and that is how your posts are coming across) if they are trying to help.
