Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / Sprint PCS / April 2008tvguide on your Sprint Mogul (info)
First, why would you want a tvguide on your Mogul? Well, if your Mogul has Slingplayer on it you should also have access to a wireless tvguide. Slingplayer: http://www.slingmedia.com/go/spm To make a long story short, if you want to see TV listings on your Mogul from http://wireless.tvguide.com you might have to do the same thing I did. I had to go to the above site with my desktop computer and then e-mail the link that the desktop computer ended up at to to my Sprint Mogul. I still can't get the HTML version of the above site to work but the text version has everything I wanted anyway. TNX >First, why would you want a tvguide on your Mogul?

Maybe it's time to shop around for a new web client. Perhaps novarra or opera? On that "one device with WM5" where you saw m.tvguide.com render correctly, what was the web client? > >> >First, why would you want a tvguide on your Mogul?

I use "Internet Explorer" on the WM5 device and since the WM5 device lets me view m.tvguide.com in HTML it looks better on that than the "text" version looks on my Mogul. >> On that "one device with WM5" where you saw m.tvguide.com render > correctly, [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > view m.tvguide.com in HTML it looks better on that than the "text" version > looks on my Mogul. Interesting. I'm using a T-Mobile WM6 device and both m. and wireless.tvguide.com display correctly (the same) in IE Mobile. > >> On that "one device with WM5" where you saw m.tvguide.com render > > correctly, [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > Interesting. I'm using a T-Mobile WM6 device and both m. and > wireless.tvguide.com display correctly (the same) in IE Mobile. Thanks for the info and I've done some further investigation after reading your post. I've seen m.tvguide.com work on two Moguls but those two Moguls did not have the latest software update. I'm still looking for another Mogul with the latest software update to try it on. >> >> On that "one device with WM5" where you saw m.tvguide.com render >> > correctly, [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] >> Interesting.

I'm sure IE works most of the time for you and the newest version probably does a slightly better job except for a very few sites -- like m.tvguide.com. A different web browser might solve your problem with tvguide and let you quit wasting time and get on with your life. > >> >> On that "one device with WM5" where you saw m.tvguide.com render > >> > correctly, [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > m.tvguide.com.

BTW I've tried Mini Op 4 and it could not reach FTP sites. >> >> >> On that "one device with WM5" where you saw m.tvguide.com render >> >> > correctly, [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] >> m.tvguide.com.

You can have both installed (unless WM6 is a *complete* piece of sh.t) and pick and choose which one you want to use at any given moment. Use IE for everything except where it screws up. Use opera for those other sites where it can handle them better. Does m.tvguide.com need you to use FTP? If not, then use IE when you go to a site that needs FTP. > >> >> >> On that "one device with WM5" where you saw m.tvguide.com render > >> >> > correctly, [quoted text clipped - 38 lines] > Does m.tvguide.com need you to use FTP?

So far m.tvguide.com is the only site that screws up on the Sprint Moguls with the latest ROM upgrade and I have a way around the error message I get. The way around the error message is to just use a "Favorite" with the following URL : http://www.google.com/gwt/n?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwireless.tvguide.com%2F%28S%28aocqpea f5mbyh0n4qctrn4bo%29%29%2Findex.aspx >> >> >> >> On that "one device with WM5" where you saw m.tvguide.com render >> >> >> > correctly, [quoted text clipped - 42 lines] >> Does m.tvguide.com need you to use FTP?
