Verizon Fios Mobile Application For BlackBerry Storm

DVR

It seems that Verizon Fios is slowing trying taking over the cable TV market. A recent addition to their arsenal is a Fios mobile application. Currently only available for the Storm, the application lets you easily record shows, view TV listings, set parental controls and manage space on your DVR - all from your mobile device. If you're a Fios user this app can come in very handy when you're not near your DVR. Check it out Fios TV Central, and download the app free OTA at Verizon.com.

This has been available on many other Verizon phones, and is only know available on the first BB - the Storm.

Well I own a Curve, and would really like to see this application available to me.

Come on Verizon.... why so slow. Wake up!

When I enter my mobile phone # on my DVR to get my access code I get the following error: "STB not FoG Eligible". Anyone have a clue what that means???

Thanks

Update:

Never mind... It's because I only have the regular DVR not the "Home Media" (whole house) DVR. Oh well..

I really want FiOs, but can not get it because I live in an AT&T area and they will not run FiOs service to anywhere that is covered by AT&T. Eventually they will have a full Hub (not just that dumb phone screen thing they have now) that connects all Verizon stuff together and will "Hopefully" be able to streem DVR'd stuff to their phones (For a fee I am sure)

This will all be LTE stuff, but it sounds really cool from what I have been able to find on Verizon's plans for networking houses.

It sucks that this is only an option if you have the multi-room DVR and not just the regular DVR.

I just downloaded the app. It works great. Now you can delete from the DVR. Another way to record onto your DVR is go to. http://m.verizon.com/tvvia
Anyone with a smartphone and a Multiroom DVR can record remotely. All you can do is record.

I think this is a slick app, I see it is coming to the Curve hopefully the Tour won't be far behind, as I'd like to have a remote option to clean up my DVR and set things up.

FYI, I have it running on my Tour right now. Great apps for those with multi-room DVR.

Would be nice to have this type of program for DirecTV's DVR Anywhere site rather than having to access the internet. Anyone know if this is out there?
