ThomasThBKK Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 My experience so far: US Android TV version -> blocked here, sideloaded at tv, didn't test with a vpn, only accessible from US LG TV with WEBOS -> No app available at all Sideloaded Android HBO GO ASIA app (same as on phone) -> doesn't scale on TV, doesn't support landscape mode Android App on Phone -> Chromcast works, but it's buffering after like 15 minutes and get stuck, never continues, forwarding doesnt seem to work either IOS App on Ipad -> Chromecast work, but buffering,stuttering the same as Android app Browser on normal pc -> works fine, only thing that works fine for me. Quite a disappointment, iam using it only to watch on PC right now, everything else seems unusable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously you can't watch the US or Latin American content without a VPN, as you also can't with Netflix or Amazon Prime. If you use a free VPN that will most likely also slow down your internet speed considerably. I downloaded this app from LG Latin America content store after registering my 3BB HBO GO service. In fact I own HBO GO Malaysia version app on my iPad as well, and works well by my 3BB HBO register detail. So I thought I can login this LG Latin America version by the same way and launch Thailand HBO GO content, but the photo shows error was I only got.

Android APP on Samsung phone -> Since HBO GO Thailand version is not available on Google Play, I use HBO GO Malaysia Version and screen mirroring function to LG OLED TV. It works well, high definition and no lag at all. Chrome on Samsung phone -> Screen Mirroring works, but resolution was downscaled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimLuce Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 (edited) The 3BB HBO GO app works great for Apple iTunes not compatible with Android though. Also it can be difficult to select the correct HBO GO app that links to 3BB. I got it on my iPhone no problem but my Android Smart TV can’t download it yet. Looks like MONOMAX is a separate app and I haven’t even downloaded that one yet. I just saw everything Apple TV has access to I am buying one.

JimLuce Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 If it’s on Google Play then I should see it on my Android Smart TV but it’s currently non existent on Google Play. Works fine on my iPhone though. No problem on iTunes only took 60 seconds to setup on my iPhone. If anyone else can download it to Google Play on an Android Smart device I sure would love to see a screenshot of what it looks like because 3BB said they’re working to fix that and it’s an issue for all Android customers.

JaiMaai Posted April 1, 2020 Author Share Posted April 1, 2020 The standard phone/tablet based app is available (if you have a Thailand based gmail account). There doesn't seem to be an Android TV version available nor a Samsung smart TV one. More or less made up my mind that I can't be bothered with it.

And sounds like a few people on here as well. Sounds like 3BB is still having issues because it’s so new their technicians say they’ve been running around the city with the same issues everyday since HBO GO came out. Some people say they can access it on Android and some people can’t but it’s working great on all Apple devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember seeing something in the Google App Store about needing an Android box!!! I don’t care I’m done messing with it I’m gonna try a link someone sent me to one more time later but regardless of whether or not it ever works in the Google App Store I actually need an Apple TV anyway because I’ve already downloaded so much on iTunes anyway over the years. I do still have an old Android box so I’ll plug it in and try that as well but I will need an Apple TV for my own personal needs even if it does work on my Android eventually. For me an Android TV was a horrible investment since I always use Apple. Edited April 1, 2020 by JimLuce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritManToo Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 (edited) MonoMax is more useful than HBO Go Download the app to your phone, got your 3BB app and click the 'MonoMax' button and it logs you into the phone app. Use the same name and password (your original 3bb login) for your Smart TV app. Works much better than HBO Go, no stuttering, Slight pain that the Smart TV app is almost all in Thai, the phone app is in English. Most of the movies/TV series you can select dubbed Thai (left button), or English with Thai subs (right button).

And that is why I wrote in my comment yesterday " I understand that is only available in 1 or 2 days. " Because I read somewhere a week ago that HBO Go would be available from April 1. I misunderstood that the service only would be available from that date, but it was actually the app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
