I cancelled my Sky and BT subscriptions within hours of installing UltimateMania on my kodi box. Not always perfect but pretty darn close. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ginger Prince Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Payments down for Mania Rocks on the eve of the football season beggining! Shite! Been advertised for ages that it was down.

supermik Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 (edited) If your subscription has expired by one day then type the word warmup into the coupon code box for a free week. It wont work if your subscription is still valid. Edited August 6, 2017 by supermik Correction of the code word. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boostin' Kev Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 I don't know much about this kind of thing but always thought it'd be good for my girlfriend to use while I'm working. Read a bit about Raspberry Pi, is that the same thing and how user friendly is it? Don't mind playing around with technical things myself but my girlfriend would just stick with Netflix. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Raspberry Pi is just a small PC that runs a version of Linux. You can install Kodi on that and then just install your add ons. Noticed Sportsmania now has a guide, installed it yesterday. It's in the repo where the Sportsmania add on was installed from. Makes things a whole lot better IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobles Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Project cypher has 2 servers running for free that have all sports and other channels. Live games on Saturday that I watched only had little glitches. Doubt it could withstand demand for big EPL games 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, obviously it's not going to run the latest games but it'll run Kodi no problem. It'll also handle the basics - internet, email. Quite amazing what this little £30 box can do to be honest. Again there are plenty of guides out there to help you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennboy1978 Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 The guide is superb, especially for ultimate mania with all the entertainment channels. I've only got Sportsmania and to be honest I only used the calendar for the games. When I installed the guide, some channels appeared that I had no idea I was paying for ! May look into Ultimate mania next. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supermik Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 They are giving another 2 weeks free. Here is their facebook post explaining what is happening. ***PLEASE READ*** Hello Guys Couple of things i need to address for you all as message from the bosses: 1) Due to us having to sort this poxy processor out we are bit behind on the new system we are about 3 weeks behind schdule but are attempting to get it in place before then so we are saying 3 weeks as a worst case scenerio, We would appreciate it if these comments of "Oh well it was good while it lasted" would not be posted because it distracts us from doing what we need to do to keep the service as good as possible for you all. So there were 2 options to take in consideration, We can remove all the other channels that are broadcasting the PL so that everyone can use the service as not everyone watches PL and watch other sports because we will be blocked then nothing will work (all other channels) unless you use VPN but you can still watch the PL by using Match Day Section 2 on the Kodi Addon but we are going to leave the decision up to you and we will go with the majority so please do not complain guys as it is the majority decision we will go with, So heres the options: A) Keep all the other channels and use a VPN to watch the streams for 3 weeks (worse case scenerio) while the PL is on, It will take us NO LONGER than 3 weeks to get this sorted for you all, We havent let you down yet and will continue to not let you down but this isnt a simple process, yes we as a team feel we have let you down by not having it in place before the start of the season but if we work together and your main part is simply refraining from making posts about "why cant i watch the PL" & leave us do the work so we can get the new system to you asap. B) Remove all channels that show PL simply so that everyone can enjoy the service so that all servers are not blocked and simply use the Match Day Section 2, cause this is the one we'd prefer to do because not everyone can afford a vpn or even want to use a vpn but most people have or can use Kodi to watch the games on Match Day Section 2. So its not like you cannot watch the PL completely as all you have to do is download Kodi / SPMC and install the addon but with us keeping the channels there then other people who want to watch other things other than the PL and they will not be able to. To prove to you guys that we arent going anywhere and we are sure the new system is in place within 3 weeks maximum we are prepared to offer a 2 week free coupon code, "imwaiting" input that (no quotation marks) into the system and enjoy the free 2 weeks but dont forget to vote on the poll. 3) Unfortunately we as a team have made a decision to do away with the Facebook groups and have instead opened a forum for everyone to use which shouldnt be much of a pain to transition over as if people use phones to access FB then the same can be done to access the forums. There are several reasons why we have decided to do this and the one of the reasons are the forum will allow us to manage the running of the service a lot easier, other factors include the amount of people that spam the groups with abuse to other members and the team, (Yes i know the team arent perfect either but they are simply replying to what the bosses have told them in that we are here to help and not to be abused and not sort out arguments between other members), other reasons are that there is just too many duplicate posts as well guys as on the Forum it will allow us to manage it a lot better. Last reason is that its a miracle this group hasnt been closed down ages ago anyway so at least through the forums there won't need to be a mad scramble to let you guys know where to contact us for help. Now we will be looking for a few more moderators so if you want to apply to be a moderator then simply comment below and we'll have a chat with you. The URL's of the forums depending on which forum you're using are as follows: Sports Mania - http://forum.sportsmania.rocks Mania HD - http://forum.maniahd.rocks Ultimate Mania - http://forum.ultimatemania.rocks Now how do you sign in and use the forum i hear you ask? Well its simple you simply login with the same details you signed up with and post away, There are video tutorials for you all to watch and it will be an easy transition. Also we have added the very popular app called Tapatalk to the Forums. To find us on tapatalk all you need to do is search one of the following and it will show up like this: Sports Mania - http://prntscr.com/g7a882 Mania HD - http://prntscr.com/g7a8nr Ultimate Mania - http://prntscr.com/g7a6iu Click login and use your details you signed up with to log in and fireaway, there are also push notifications so that when you add a thread or post it will up. PLEASE NOTE: There is a chat feature in Tapatalk but we cannot turn this off and it is NOT MONITORED by staff so if you post there then a staff member will not reply so please use the forums only. The Facebook groups will be archived tomorrow morning along with the twitter accounts as well. Apologies for any inconvenience caused. The Mania Team Also apologies for everything being bunched FB doesnt allow me to separate to paragraphs. lol 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Stig Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 The 3 weeks of disruptive service will be a pain in the hoop (remember they are giving 2 of the weeks free) but it is still an excellent service, and although I have BT through my virgin package, i will renewing my sub for another year when it runs out 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
