As I see tons of these threads cropping up... (X app does not work on mah Tour!)
I figured I would compile a list of apps that have not been updated just yet, and note when they are finally fixed.
(I will edit this post.)
Confirmed Non Workable Apps:
YouTube
E-Trade Mobile Pro --- **UPDATE! FIXED PERMISSIONS ISSUE!**
ESPN
Amazon.com App
Unconfirmed by me (If more than 3 others report something in this list as non working, I will move it to confirmed.):
Bank of America
Slingmedia for Pro HD!
Apps that some cant get to work, but work for most:
Windows Live Search App - Fix here! Google Maps - I just went to maps.google.com and clicked the download link (3.02) and it works fine. BlackBerry App World - From the Tour Browser: Click Here Pandora - I got it to work via going: Here from my Blackberries Browser.] E-Trade - Set permissions to allow "Input simulation" Fires right up!
Apps that "kinda" work (Unconfirmed):
WeatherBug - not the forcast extension
Reported Fix: actually, i have weatherbug on mine and it works perfectly. to get the forecast extension, all you have to do is hit the menu button, select forecast, and once on the forecast screen, scroll down to highlight the forecast box and click for full screen, then click again for forecast extension. It sounds like a lot, but it's not really. rclee820
Post apps you have found not to work below. Please keep the chatter to a minimum.
Thanks

Reason: Adding.
I'm pretty sure that all launchers at this point in time DO NOT work. i'm sure it will be a matter of one line or something simple and all launchers will work.
i've heard the Bolt works. Havent heard anything about twitter apps NOT working. and quickpull and beyond160 seem to work fine as well.
i Have sent a email to mlb about the blackberry short cuts. They all dont work and the MLB and ESPN ones dont either. They sent a responce back that they have been working on the problem for a few days.
Too make things a little clearer most launchers don't work it is the way the url is parsed. Although going directly to the site works fine. Like youtube.com redsox.com etc......as you all can probably figure or have noticed the browser is DIFF than the storm and the OS is 4.7.1.x

Only one that didn't work for me was the espn launcher. Everything else works. Youtube works for me. Facebook worked for me after a batt pull. Pandora worked perfectly. Slacker works, beyond160 works after an email to CS. No complaints here.

Go to Pandora.com and from your Tour browser and download it from there.
Yeah I did that 100 times and never had a download link then remembered that my browser was still set to Firefox. I switched it to BB and it worked fine. This native browser works so great compared to the storm it pulls up all the full pages super fast!
