Any missing streams or information? Incorrect game time, or a dead audio link? Post it here and let me know!

No info when visited with Firefox

[Lehigh Football Nation]

Please elaborate. Sometimes on rare occasions you have to do that, or wait a few.

Same for me...the top and side are showing up...but not the info about the games.

I opened it in Chrome and everything was visible.

[UNDColorado]

Worked fine on google chrome browser.

[Lehigh Football Nation]

I think there might be something with data authentication in certain cases. It works fine for me in Chrome and Firefox, but not in IE8. I will work on this and get it fixed before Thursday,

[IBleedYellow]

If you aren't using Chrome, you're wrong.

[Lehigh Football Nation]

After doing some research, I think this should work properly in Firefox and Chrome, but sometimes not in IE8. I believe the page for your smartphone should work OK for all main flavors of Apple's IOS and Android. Let me know if there's still issues.

Here's the link to the mobile page again:

I've got a space age phone but a horse and buggy mind. How do you get the app onto your phone?

The MSU/Monmouth game is also on Altitude .

Added some new audio links for the Thursday games:

More will show up by tomorrow.

I am currently working on getting my ScoreCenter app up and running to make it carney-proof to get to the information. Unfortunately, Google now wants developers to fork over $25 for the honor of setting up a free app in their store, so it's not going to be there and it's not going to simple to install it on your phone. I need to tweak my code, too, in order to look consistent in both the app and webpage formats.

If you're a bleeding edge sort of person you can install it through this link, either via QR code or not:

http://www.appcatch.com/app_fcs_scorecenter-237635.html

But it's not ready yet. If you go to your mobile browser and open this link:

http://college-sports-source.appspot.com/MobileScores.html?week=1&subd=FCS&seas=2013

The app will look more like this when I'm done.

The great news is that I have the FCS ScoreCenter App on my phone, and it looks fantastic.

The bad news is that in order to download a free app in this age to your phone, without forking over a poll tax to Apple or Google, it's not a simple process.

Hoping that someone can explain it better than me, here's a 10c explanation on how you can install it on your phone:

To install the app:
1. Click the App Catch link to display the FCS ScoreCenter's App's QR code on a computer screen: http://www.appcatch.com/app_fcs_scorecenter-237635.html
3. Scan the appropriate QR code on the screen with your QR reader on your Android phone or iPhone.
4. From there, follow instructions on how to download the file, and install it on your phone.

A caveat: when I downloaded it to my phone, I discovered that Google does not like you to circumvent their monetary gravy train and download free apps. So, on my phone I needed to click something like "Download Apps from any location" (i.e. not the Google Play store), then try the whole thing again.

A very sensible alternative to downloading the app would be to simply go on AGS on your phone, and click this page:

http://college-sports-source.appspot.com/MobileScores.html?week=1&subd=FCS&seas=2013

Which is the exact same information. Like the App, it auto-refreshes every 60 seconds with the most current scores. And - this point is to be emphasized - my scores generally are more up-to-date than the big boys like ESPN, CBS, etc.

When I go to the mobile site I get an error with "Timeout while calling http://spreadsheets.google.com/......

Are you going to the site with IE8, a mobile browser?

Does it still show the timeout after a refresh? Also, consider scanning the QR code and installing it as an App, which (I think) may work better.

On my laptop I'm getting

getSubdConf Failure:Timeout while calling http://spreadsheets.google.com/tq?key=0At2w-dbZUZ2gdDRJbEFscER6OTZtMzFNbzZGSU1rU3c&gid=0



both in IE10 and Google Chrome

Thanks the app works

Don't use IE10. Does it still come up in Google Chrome after a refresh? It seems to work much better in Chrome.

Unfortunately, it's not going to work well in IE8,9 10 because of the way my page/app gets the data. IE made a certificate change to their browser that affects anything that gets Google Data. Technically, you can get around it by mucking with certificates and such, but I'm not about to ask users to do that.

Maybe at some point I'll think about moving the data to another source, thus removing the issue.

Refreshing Chrome removes that message for a short time, but then it comes back. The spreadsheet never shows up.

Do me a favor and try loosening "Internet Properties" settings on your computer? Internet Zone: Medium or better. Just trying to debug this for you and others.

On my computer the scoreboard is, honestly, blazing fast.

Is there a week two update?

[Lehigh Football Nation]

Absolutely. Got a ton to work on right now but they will be ready very soon. I'll add a new thread for it when it's done.
