There reason you can't download the HD games or other swapables to work is because of the user agent used in the browser, use this guide to get it to work:

1. The first thing you need to do is download Dolphin Browser as this browser allows you to change the user agent of your phone. The user agent basically tells the internet what type of device you're using. You can download Dolphin Browser for free from the Play Store here: https://market.android.com/details?id=mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser&hl=en

2. After you have installed Dolphin you need to open it then navigate to Menu > More > Settings > Dolphin Settings

3. Then click on click on User Agent and then custom and enter the ref text in to the box: Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 2.3.3; en-gb; GT-I9100 Build/GINGERBREAD) AppleWebKit/533.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/533.1
this fools your device into thinking it's a Galaxy S2 (meaning you will have access to ALL of the Orange Swapables).

6. Now go to this address in Dolphin Browser, this will take you to the page where you can add swapables: http://orangeworld.co.uk/r/swapable/

7. Voila! Now you have all the Swapables including Sky Sports! :p
