Here's the link if you have Verizon, and you don't have the correct VCAST app.

Enjoy!

EDIT

This will only work for a Verizon phone, and it must be on this list.

I was going to link the Verizon website, but its screwed up and says no phones are Vcast compatible

IIiiiiiiiiiits SAFE!!!!!

Guys don't use this. I talked to verizon today. And they said you either have it or not. There was no other way to get it.

:D edit powers!

[mrTOUCHER]

Are you serious? That's Verizon's mobile site. It's ugly as hell.

I already talked to SamHayne about it, he told me to post it myself, as to not "steal my thunder."

Glad to see my time to bother posting info to help you all with the confusion was worth it.

On behalf of the Verizon users Thank you
Welcome to the forum dude :)

I wish i was on verizon but sadly im not :(

[mrTOUCHER]

1: you cannot get a virus on android. Its Linux based. Derp?

2: there's alot of confusion about which market to download the app from. I took the time to make an account, to post the Verizon mobile link, that btw, I was provided by Verizon. (Hint, you can view page info to see the certificate)

3: Hey there,

Thanks for the link and working to help others out. We really appreciate it. Rather than steal your thunder and post the link for you, I fixed your problem with posting. It was because the forum hadn't seen validation of your e-mail for your account. When you create the account, you should have received an e-mail with a link you needed to click to validate and be able to post.

However, you don't need to validate it anymore; I've cleared you and you should be able to post. If you want to post that link and what it is for other users, that would be great.

Thanks! -Samhayne

Perhaps if you researched a little before you jumped to conclusions there wouldn't be people running around crying "wolf".

I merely took the time to alleviate some confusion.

Take it or leave it, lol.

And yes. I have been lurking for a long time, very anxious to see SL on my list of apps.

[Derajdefyre]

I can't believe the number of hostile replies here. It isn't hard to see that the link is legit. I'm disappointed.

That said, thank you for your contribution and don't let the negative knee jerk reactions get you down. They had good intentions, even if they were wrong.

[Yvonnel]

Thanks for the link. Appreciate it. It is exactly what the OP states.

Thanks to you Sam for directing him to post.

you have to have a Verizon VCAST enabled phone for it to work.

Lol sorry...But its just kinda hard to believe a new person who comes in and the very first post is a download link...

He has been on the forum as a guest and probably saw people saying thier app wasnt working and out of the goodness of his heart posted a way to help.
At least he took the time to contact sam not many new members would.

I say again Thanks dude and welcome lol :)

[mrTOUCHER]

Impossible. Do some research. Androids cannot get viruses. Quite a bit of antivirus programs for android are just a hoax for those who don't understand how Linux works. Its just using up system resources.

On topic.

Ill update the OP with a list of compatible phones.

[romgar1]

An interesting beginning for mr toucher. Welcome to the forums indeed. I do apologize for my first post but I have a good friend who is a Verizon tech. I had just talked to her and she assured me there wasn't a way to get vcast if your phone doesn't already have it. However, my phone does. Im also sorry for reporting this thread. :/ a fisher app could indeed be a window for a hacker to steal info from your phone but mrtoucher is right viruses would be very rare

[Derajdefyre]

The only "viruses" for android are programs that people still need to install. Android even warns you what a program can do when you install it. Anti virus for android truly is a waste. You are only infected if you take deliberate steps to infect yourself.

[apoceq]

My VCAST was not working before I downloaded the .apk

I went there, downloaded through my phone web-browser and installed it. Now it works like a charm. Stop hatin on people, he did us a favor.

[StompArtist]

August 10th 2010 Android got hit by it's first virus. Look it up!

[apoceq]

I have been infected by a virus before...renamed a bunch of things on my SD card and i eventually had to wipe it clean...

[mrTOUCHER]

Glad to have helped.


Off topic.

Yes, there are malicious programs. They don't just wander into your phone, you actually install them. An antivirus does nothing against this.

Its easy to spot by viewing the permissions. If its acceding your location, contacts, history, recent calls ETC I would be wary.

Back on topic!

[Kyle Wise]

Side note. My phone is rooted. So I had the old vcast app frozen. You must have the app fully original. No uninstall. No freeze. Or it won't download. I got it to dl. But I just lost my wifi. And I'm not in service area atm. So no clue if it works. I'm guessing it does. My apologies to the op. Verizon had just told me I was sol

Yep my original DROID x has it but The one on my x2 wont work ugh guess I will not be using tegra on star legends...back to my DROIDX.

If you have Verizon.
AND of your phone is on the list.
It will work.

EDIT

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/V_Cast

I was going to link the Verizon website, but its screwed up and says no phones are Vcast compatible

this means if you do not have a verizon phone dont bother as aparently verizon phones are better at playing 3d games, and they dont believe any other phone could actually beta test the game properly.(this is my opinion not that of the star legends developers)

you have to remember, betas have several stages, limited beta, closed beta, open beta, release. to understand fully, most games released are actually in an open beta, this is to usually generate revenue to assist in the further development of the program. but foremost to quash any leftover bugs the original beta testers missed.



this is my personal opinion.------V
beta's should be more of a compitition to get in, allowing those who have experience in beta testing to assist in the removal of bugs, and repairing of code errors. you should be good at technical writing, understand mechanics of programming structure. and not just because you have a phone from a special company, so only people in one country are allowed to assist in the beta.

now the average joe use may be going "yeah thats not fair" but really, I have researched phone vendors and the vender has a high profile network that is great for high end testing, I know this game will be AWESOME, and i support the developers decisions.

Thank you for a quality Product.

I respect your opinion, but Spacetime didn't choose V Cast because they are "better" at playing video games. V Cast was chosen because V Cast customers are demandy, and expect high quality. Satisfy a V Cast user, then you can satisfy any mobile customer.

Well, it sorta is a competition. Non Verizon users have a chance to get into the beta by competing in Droid Fansite ran events for Beta Keys. The keys would allow players to enter the beta without V Cast.

I do agree with you on beta's should be professional. That is why I am so exited to test the game. I think spacetime believes in it's community enough that they don't have to run professional betas. I mean come on, they got me, Mysticaldream, and Physchologic in the beta. Also many other forumers who will do the awaiting blackstar community proud.

Also, this is a limited Beta. They want a small portion of the population to have access to the beta, not the full community. So V Cast is a very small market, and V Cast also fits the criteria of a beta testing market. Not because their better, because they are very demandy.

You had me up until you said this. There are many people who would do the awaiting SL community proud. You highlight yourself, and two others. I agree that with it but i feel that the statement is too...too....honestly, idk the word for it. Another thing that lost me is that you spelled Physiologic wrong. Rofl.Rofl. I wouldnt care if a caterpillar found the exact same bugs as you. Why does it matter so much on what people did in the past. If you can live up to what made you so respected, then i would agree with the statement. But the beta isnt out yet, thus you cant.

Im disappointed with you Pharcyde...

[Pharcyde]

I was quite confused too at first, especially since I have never used a Droid before.

V Cast Apps should already be on your phone. Go to the android market, and at the top right, it should say apps. App's is the V Cast market.

[mrTOUCHER]

Its either call Apps, or Vcast market. My link will get you Apps.

[Weak_Sauce]

I believe you have to update it to "apps" as the old vcast app doesn't work anymore.

[grayfox99]

I believe you have to update it to "apps" as the old vcast app doesn't work anymore.

I've done that, and used the link and updated it and it still doesn't work it's still unable to process my requests. The only vcast apps that works is the one inside the android market, but that section doesnt show star legends being available.

[mrTOUCHER]

Ijust successfully downloaded and installed SL via the link in OP.

Enjoy!

[Aculeas]

I'm having the same problem and I am now I AM really uppset. Verizon technical support failed they are working on it but won't have a fix anytime soon. I spent an hour talking to them and went through 2 lvls of support. I was spealing to americans no less and they could NOT help. Sam, Devs, spacetime. I implore you to help us out here. To say I was camping out for this is an understatement.

[sabermage]

I cannot find it in the VCAST Apps section. Am i missing something?

[Samhayne]

Hey guys,

I'm waiting to hear back from Verizon support about why some users can find Star Legends in V CAST and some can't. Until then, the only thing I can refer you to try is to contact Verizon support yourself to see if they have any input.

[jaggedlilpill]

Just got off the phone w/ verizon tech. The statement is misleading as not all verizon users will be able to get into beta only a select few phones have the vcast app available. I think she told me their were like 5 or 6 android phones. Sadly the droid 2, which I own, is not one of them. I'm not sure why the apk can't just be released but anyways guess all those who have those few phones enjoy. We'll have to wait it out with the rest.

The Motorola Droid 2 is on the Wikipedia list of phones that do V CAST. I'm not sure why yours wouldn't. Was it a specific version of Droid 2? http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/V_Cast

Also, did you try this link to get V CAST? http://mobile.vzw.com/VCASTApps

[Pharcyde]

Someone said something about updating the v cast application. I am not droid savy, so anyone know how?

[Derajdefyre]

It's in the android market, all verizon phones should have a verizon link at the front page of the android marketplace. Click that link and it takes you to special verizon apps, the VCast App Store included.

Instead of searching in V cast, try hitting the "New apps" thing on the home page. I did that and it was the first app on the list.

[Ryan Rankine]

I'm using the Incredible 2. The website provided gives me "404 not found", and using just "mobile.vzw.com" gives me "The system was unable to process your request".

I have in my apps drawer, a V CAST Apps, but when using it I get "Error: Unale to complete request". When opening the Android Market, clicking on Verizon Apps, I do not see a way to update/download V Cast Apps, or Star Legends Beta :(

[WoundedEagle]

Anyone want to send me a link in dropbox by email?

[WoundedEagle]

If someone had Star Legends and Dropbox they could send the email of apps to someone and then the link may make it able to get Star Legends. If you can do this, do Dropbox to cosmpocketlegend@gmail.com

Yes I did try the link, it dled and installed but upon opening said 'unable to verify account, please contact customer service' and yes I read the wiki and the lady said it was inaccurate. Go figure.

Also, its not in the market under verizon apps.

[WoundedEagle]

Sorry to hear that :/

[sabermage]

I have resolved my issue.

1. Do not use a browser other than the default browser. I use Dolphin HD Browser, and the link on the page on the first post would just say the page is not available. When using the regular browser, it actually has a file to download.
2. The app is not in the Android Market, but in the app called "Apps" when you go to all your phone applications. The old application was called VCAST Apps, but is now just Apps.

This should let you get into the "Apps" application that goes into the VCAST Apps, and then find Star Legends.

Tried that, didn't work.

[BCRobin]

I've been messing with the V Cast Apps all day...have had the same problems as other Verizon-based Droid users...I have a Droid X from Verizon and have eagerly been anticipating this release and the opportunity to beta-test. I thought I was one of the lucky ones but it seems not....no matter what I've tried, I get an error from V Cast Apps that says "Error: Unable to complete request." I've downloaded from the link in the OP a few different times and installed and restarted and tried again but V Cast won't work and I'm dreading the inevitable call to Verizon support...I'm beginning to think...if V CAST doesn't support Droid 2, does it support Droid X??

[WoundedEagle]

Its all kind of a mess right now. Beta is just being tested so we need to patiently wait. The beta is only 2 weeks which is long but i can cope with it.

[Ryan Rankine]

OK Big Update for ME! I kept trying the link on the first page with no luck. So I said what the hell, I'll try again, and it worked, it provided a link to download Apps. So I did that and I'm installing Star Legends now.

Just keep trying the link in the nomal browser. You may get "404 not found" but just keep trying every minute or so, mine finally worked!

[WoundedEagle]

on iPhone :(

[WoundedEagle]

Ryan can you download dropbox pleaseeeeee

[grayfox99]

Tried that, didn't work.

Ok so I had the same issues as most of u but I fixed it. I followed the link on the first page, I updated my vcast apps to "apps" it still didn't work. I looked thru verizon's forums and found that a month or so ago several users had the same issues, they uninstalled their update effectively rolling the "apps" back to "vcast apps" then they reinstalled the update. I did this exact same thing and it worked like a charm. So in short

1. update your app thru the link on the first post
2. uninstall the update by going Menu > Settings > manage applications > find the vcast app or "apps" then uninstall updates.
3. go back to the link on the first page using your phone's browser and reinstall the app.

Should fix the issue, it did for me and a bunch of other vzw users on their forums.

[jaggedlilpill]

Yeah I tried that as well. Not working. Spent an hour and a half on the phone with vzw. Tech guy said that vcast doesn't work on any of his phones either and he's never seen it work on any of the android based smartphones that he's trouble shooted there. He also said vcast wasn't fully functional yet and still had loads of bugs...not too sure why STS chose to release through vcast due to that in itself. Is there not a way they can make it downloadable for vzw users any other way? I was so psyched for this and under the impression since I was on an android phone with vzw I was included, as were many of the others with issues I'm sure. Its not in the vcast app market either for me. Idk what else to try, 2 phone calls to vzw, one taking an hour and half and doing everything that's been listed here to do.

[grayfox99]

Then it still didnt work so I did the 2nd step: Settings, manage apps, Go to Vcast Apps now named -Apps- and uninstall updates..... Re download link from here and AT 1ST it showed no improvement. I still got the error msg. But I waited about an hour and just checked to see if it works now And it did!!!

I confirm HTC thunderbolt can get Star legends

Have you tried logging onto their website from a PC and sending the app to your phone from the app store on their main site?

This would work, if they didn't think Droid X wasn't compatible with the program when it is on the compatible phone list....

Ohh oohh... Just tried to open the Vcast download using the stock Browser instead of Dolphin. I had to click "Browser" several times in order for it to start downloading, it kept asking me which browser I wanted to us. (Quite possibly the reason for the errors on Dolphin HD)

However, still getting errors from the Apps program when attempting to do anything with it. Even searching or trying to use the Catalog. All it says is "Error: unable to complete request"

[Torrentula81]

This thread seems odd. I have xperia play. Downloaded from vcast. Opened app amd said you need to up date and it linked to android market. So im not even sure why they have this game in there in the first place if it doesnt work. I had to uninstal it completely and use one in market.

Yeah, sorry for that. V CAST still has the older version of the client there. They should get it updated shortly. The one on the Market is the one to use until they do.
