Ok, I am frustrated. I was not able to find HBO go nor the Sirus app through MArketplace. So I got them both installed through other means.
My A7 has all the happy mod stiff done to it.
When I launch the Sirus app, I login with my account and it just sits there at checking for updates. Anyone have any lick with this?
Next I installed the new HBO Go app to watch HBO shows and etc. It launches fine, i see content, but when I attempt to login to actually watch anything, I get that "Sorry" popup that says
The application HBO GO (process com.HBO) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
Anyone else try these 2 apps?
HBO Go
This app just crashes when I try to sign in on my Elocity A7-040 (Android 2.2.1, Dexter's MotoBlur).
I'm having the same problem. Glad to see I'm not alone. For those interested I have a NotionInk Adam with pixel qi, and it's running beast Rom 2.2.1.
download dolphin browser and in setting change the view to desktop then you can use HBO go from the browser.

I have the same problem with HBO Go running DexMod 1.4 and all patches. It just doesn't like the app.

Hi, newbie here,
Does anyone know if there is a BT Sports app APK that could be side loaded onto Fire TV?
I have xbmc and have access to BT Sports but I've got access to an BT Sports account login and I'd like to run it separately from Xbmc.
My Fire TV isn't rooted. I've seen what looks like an APK on a dodgy Zip file site that asks for bank details to open it but I'd rather see if there was a free version about.
I'd be interested to here if anyone has managed to configure this set up on their FIre Tv.

Yes it can be sideloaded, you will need a mouse to navigate through. I used a wireless keyboard/airmouse thingy
APK attached.

http://www.aftvnews.com/how-to-sideload-apps-to-your-amazon-fire-tv-using-a-windows-pc/
Sideloading allows you to install apps to your Fire TV that are not available in the Amazon Appstore. There are numerous apps in the Google Play store that may work on the Fire TV that have not been officially ported over. You can download these apps using online APK downloaders. There are also apps like XBMC, which we will be using in this guide, which are not available on any appstore and can only be installed by sideloading.

BT Sport App for Kindle Fire Stick
Hi, Could someone post the current version of the BT Sport Apk (2.11.0) so I can sideload to a Kindle Stick?
I have sideloaded an older version (link on this site) but this no longer works as the App requires an update. BT Sport App forces you to do an upgrade and stops any previous versions working. I assume there is no way to upgrade the app directly from the Fire Stick?
My google play account wont let me download the current BT Sport App version as says I have no devices connected (I have no access to Andriod phone or tablet). I've used APK Pure and APK-dl to download the current BT Sport App from Google play but abdfire fails to sideload (I get an "install failed" error msg). If I try to reload the old version of BT sport this sideloads fine so I know abdfire is working.
I have a Windows 7 PC.
Any help would be appreciated to either get the downloaded file sideloaded or a new link to the file (outside of Google Play) which I can download and try to sideload.
Thanks

Since the latest update the bt sport app sideloaded on the fire stick now just comes up the message it can't start as it doesn't have access to Google play services. Any one else having this issue?

Same here, can't get anywhere so removed it, will be back to casting from tablet now.
It can be made to work again. Follow the steps here:
http://www.aftvnews.com/how-to-inst...amazon-fire-tv-or-fire-tv-stick-without-root/
(You dont need to do the last step for Google Music, unless you really want it).
BT Sport app will then moan about the version of play services being too old, so download and sideload the latest compatible version of play services (For Android 5, arm64, nodpi). As of writing, it would be this:
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...s-10-2-98-240-146496160-android-apk-download/
(I actualy think I installed 10.2.91 and not 10.2.98 above but I dont think it will matter)
After installing that, and rebooting box, BT sport would no longer complain but just go to a black screen. Gave up and assumed it wouldnt be made to work... but hey presto worked a treat a few days later when I checked again. Happily watched a game over the weekend.
hello someone can help me with the app Btsport, because I doe everything about to install the services of google play and always show me a error, pleases some help.

Anyone know what the current combination of the 5 files is, I've had no luck getting any version of BT sport to work.
Im using a Kindle Fire Stick 2nd Gen on Fire OS 5.2.4.2
Google Account Manager 511
Google Services Framework 511
Google Play Store TV 8028
Ive tried various versions of both of these but neither work, I receive the update google play services error.
Google Play Services
Google Services Framework
Any help would be appreciated.
The following combination of files will enable the BT Sport app.

https://apkpure.com/bt-sport/com.bt.btsport
For the above files, version 4.12.1 of bt sport will work. This may help with other google service dependant apps. Install cetusplay on your phone and set it to mouse mode for controls within the app.
It all installed correctly, however, as my BT Sport service is provided free from EE, it won’t work unless the device has an EE SIM card installed.
Presumably that’s that then? Unless anyone knows any way around this?
Looks like the latest by sport won't install on the firestick, anyone have it going or have found a workaround o)
I've updated to 4.6.1. (GSM Unlocked). When I try to use Amazon Prime Music and choose "cloud" instead of device, it shows the cloud items for a split-second, then goes back to "device".
I noticed I had two Amazon Music apps installed, different version numbers. One I could uninstall, the other claims it's a system app and cannot be uninstalled. I uninstalled the newer one, leaving the "system" version. Same behavior.
When I go to the Amazon app store and download and install the latest one, it says "There was an error while installing Amazon Prime Music. Please try again.".
When I access music in my library, the app just crashes and offers to send a report (I presume to Amazon).
Any idea how I can get a fully functional Amazon Music app installed?
Additional note: Is there an Amazon Music app AND an Amazon Prime Music app?
Are you using a Launcher other then the stock Fire OS? I had the same issue with the Kindle app. Amazon seems to have 2 "Apps" for their services that launchers show. One does not work the other does. My Music app does break if you installed it from the Google app store. You said you tried from the Amazon store so I'm not sure. The new Music 4.4 app just came out see if you can find the APK for it.

What I wound up doing was "uninstalling updates" from the one I could not uninstall completely. That reverted me back to some really old version of the music app. Then, I went to the Appstore and found Prime Music and this time it installed.
But, yes, I have Dodol launcher, and it still shows "Music" app and "Amazon Music" app. The later is the newest version that now works.
Thanks.
Hello, since a month or so, when I try to watch a video in facebook or twitter app, they immediately stop playing, and there is no way to watch them. The same has always appened in periscope and twitch but until now facebook and twitter never had problems with videos. Youtube videos work fine as always, never had problem with it.
Does it happen to you too?
Any suggestions?
same issue here on fire os 4.6.3, cannot play videos on FB app. The video just plays for 1-2 sec and immediately stops jumping towards the end
Another one with the same problem here.

Amazon has pulled Facebook from the app store. Can anybody post the last working Amazon App Store version of Facebook?
Interesting enough, Facebook is still working on my Kindle. So, I (in retrospect, stupidly) created a backup APK on the Kindle to install on my Fire Phone. When I tried to install it on my Fire Phone and got a parsing error. Will have to wait for a goodly soul here to upload the pre-update Amazon Fire Store version of Facebook...or for Amazon to fix the problem.

Older versions of Facebook can be found on APK Mirror. Here is a link to the most recent non alpha or beta version I could find that should work on the Fire Phone: Facebook 55.0.0.18.66 (Android 4.0.3+)

Thank you, thank you! The build you provided was too recent. So, I had to go all the way back to Facebook 45.0.0.36.146 (Android 4.0.3+) and video is working again! :good:
It seems that at the beginning of August last year there was an update to the Silk browser which broke video playback in many Fire tablets. https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/cust...QQ7V&cdThread=Tx1NRB3LVTX30RF&cdPage=4&cdSort Could our issue be similar? The tablet issue was finally fixed. It appears that with Silk being the default, and part of the OS, it broke something system wide.

New update of Facebook is not working.
The problem im facing here is that i got this phone.. Downloaded and installed the Google Play Store & all, so i have th eplay store working. all things are going smooth except for the Facebook app..
On the Amazon App Store.. It says, "Currently Unavailable" and when I installed it through Google Play Store, It crashes.
almost every app that has a "login through faceook" is crashing as soon as tap it (The facebook Connet / Login bubble)
however the Facebook Lite app and Messenger work fine.. The other app like "moments" or direct facebook app plugins are crashing.
I am rooted and running the latest Fire OS. 4.6.6
Any ideas?

Facebook broke on FireOS around V61. The version on the Amazon App Store is very old (like V48 or something) but does work, just not with the new reactions. Download an earlier version and you should be fine.

ya i guess.. earlier version of facebook and NOW with the addition of the messenger too, the messenger app now is behaving the same way.. Did some research.. its due to Amazon App Store and Google Play Store Conflict. Lets see if someone resolve it in one o these days
Thanks Mate, will try and update

Yeah I forgot about using HBO Go anyways I've been testing some movies in the the on demand section and some will load but not all, maybe still glitches in the system. Too bad they don't get 5.1 working at least for on demand stuff.
