Thanks, but the app isn't there. theres only de apks for the normal youtube app and the you tube app for google tv......

Looking for the same thing I called customer service they told me they are working on a new app for geo error we are getting but I don't know how long that will be if some one can adb pull there YouTube app and share it here would truly appreciate it that way we can sideload it and see if that works

Nobody in here that can actually provide a copy of the Youtube apk for FireTV? I'm having the same problem here. When I try and buy any of the free apps on the Fire TV, I get the good old geo-restriction errors. Also cant get them using a web-browser. The APK's that are available from the Play Store and the one for the Google TV are not ideal.
Could somebody please try and see if they have the apk they could upload somewhere so we can adb it to our devices? Great many thanks to someone willing to help out here!

???
What about the YouTube HD MOD also found here on XDA as a direct apk download?
Then again I want one with unrestricted access that doesn't block certain videos because of Android.
Some of Pewdiepie's videos (BattleBlock Theater Part #3) don't appear on his channel through the app,but I can find them by directly searching for them in the app.

Hey, guys, try this, just pulled from my device for you.

This one was installed using Play store, it's a google tv version. I like it.

Have you tried YouTube for XBMC?
Not sure if the Youtube XBMC add-on will solve your problems but it's worth a shot for sure.

Find the apk. It should work fine. Find it on a site like apk top. Or use a device that gets it and find an 'app to apk' app.
Bluetooth or usb transfer it. Or sd card swap.
Profit. .
Sent from my GN2 using the xda app.
I have been trying to find the apk, every link that i find just directs me back to the play store or some other sort of apk downloader but NEVER the actual apk.
i Tranfsformer Prime at home that i am going to see if will download and pull the apk from my tablet. but i thought for sure there would be an apk on the web that we could just download and install through package installer.
if anyone finds one please post it here when you have time
thanks in advance for anyone that posted and helped.
I did find the VuDu apk and sideloaded loaded it on my GN2.
It will not play videos. Video window opens with "Failed to find a playable version for this content!"
I understand that the VuDu apk will play videos on Android tablets. Hmmmmm...........
UPDATE
Bad file. Found the right one. VuDu working on GN2

So noone is able to log in? :crying:
you can't log in on the official app, but there is other ways, such as using the YouTube channel on Plex. This is because YouTube uses the google framework, and the OUYA doesn't have it.
Or install it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43253639

aaa ok, unless rooting and a little bit of work it wont work, but this does not stop ouya or someone else to build a youtube app?
Or does youtube demand this framework or is it just needed for the android youtube-apps that are currently out there?
I bet we'll see something official, but who knows. YouTube is owned by Google after all, so if they have any ill feelings towards the OUYA (which I do not believe they do, but others aren't so sure) it won't happen.

I was able to sign in using plex, but it doesn't really give you access to your account (or maybe that part is broke). You should also be able to login using a browser, but that might be more work than it's worth

XBMC Frodo, straight from xbmc.org/download.
The Youtube Plugin... well, not really sure on the details on that... I'll check the info on it. But it was actually automatically installed when I installed the 1Channel plugin. So whatever that is.
here's what it says in the info for it:
type: Media Source
author: TheCollective
Version: 4.4.4
cheers.

I think the youtube I plugged in was just the regular one that is there to choose from once it's installed, but I could be wrong. It was really late the night I setup my XBMC
Does anybody know what additional packages (besides the one needed for Google Play Store) the Youtube app depends on?

As far as I know, that's it, just the google architecture.
Also, the XBMC youtube is working pretty well, just use XBMCHUB Wizard and it'll be preinstalled.

The XBMC Youtube Add-On works just fine, but I don't want to start XBMC each time I want to watch a Youtube video. I am able to start the Youtube app though, but then an error message occures (forgot what it was about, something about not being able to log in, if I'm not mistaken)...

Youtube error?

I downloaded youtube and when i try to play any video it says error ocurred any ideas how to fix this?

Do you have the Google Play framework installed? Pretty sure you need that for YouTube. Then again, I can't remember if I ever had YouTube working or not.
I'm not sure about the regular youtube app, but I suggest getting the YouTube for Google TV app, I hear it works really well on the OUYA. Either that or use the XBMC Plugin, which is what I prefer.
The Youtube for GoogleTV app works great on my ouya.
But I would like to know how you guys got the xbmc plugin running. It just doesnt work for me.
Wich XBMC build did you install?

The YouTube app (for Google TV) from the Amazon store works great for me! I get the same error when I tried running the Youtube app from the Google Play store.

Fire TV build.prop

I would like to know if someone who has a Fire TV could share the build.prop system file here.
I have a Ouya console and I would like to try to edit the build.prop to make Amazon servers think it's a Fire TV and let me download Amazon exclusive games with controller support.
Its in my system dump.

Attached, from the OTA.
Let me know how that goes with the OUYA. I'd love to get the FireTV apps (Netflix, specifically) working on mine.

Wait what? any show without plus ?? are you sure? or is it only few shows??
I have sort of the same question but opposite direction - possibility of altering KFTV build.prop to allow apps from the amazon appstore that spamazon claims are "not compatible" with firetv, but if you sideload them work 100% fine...?

Yes omg why don't more people know about this! You can watch free content from any android device without plus... And yes. Only android. If you can watch it free on PC you can watch it portable on any android Device. (sorry iPhone ;3)
I made a thread about this and for the most part it was forgotten and buried.
I can do it using build.prop editor, But my question of "IS IT SAFE. " was never answered.
From the post thread in question:

Hulu allowed android users to stream free content that they can get on desktop free on mobile. It's only android. Not iPhone Every other platform (even the Desktop WIndows 8.1 app) requires a paid plus account. I was watching a full anime series (BECK) on the official hulu app on my Note 3 with a free account via chromecast screen mirroring. Using the Hulu Plus app on my smartphone. FREE. It's possible. I can jump on my Nexus 7 and go to the hulu app with a free account and pop on attack on titan without any issues (well with ads of course)
http://blog.hulu.com/2014/07/30/sample-free-content-on-hulu-for-android-2/
It says so here.
My problem is...is that when android hulu app starts up. It looks at the build.prop to see what device and model it is...and if it doesn't match the criteria of an android smartphone or tablet, it will be denied the free login.
currently my XBMC'd Fire TV has a "bueller" code name and a AFTV in the model area. Which is telling Hulu it's not an official android phone or tablet. I already used market helper to get full range of play store apps but that's just for the play store. My theory is that, if I change the build prop model and build names to my nexus 7 (2012) would it trick hulu into thinking the AFTV was a Nexus 7? thus allowing free content "sampling?"
I've changed the build.prop on my other devices for various things and reasons in the past and I can do it now. But is it safe to do on a AFTV??

I don't have an iPhone but I wonder if Fire TV/Stick qualifies for it?
interesting..
EDIT: just made a seperate free account most shows I watch Show H+ (to get plus) I got plus last year for someone for like 30 something bucks. Hopefully I can find similar deal I'd say Hulu is pretty good in my opinion.

No... The fire TV OR stick would not count. The Hulu app doesn't work for free nor does the sideloaded android apk.. But that's where the build.prop spoofing comes in. If I changed it to be a different device would Hulu work for free thinking it's an android tablet or phone? Instead of an android TV box?

Nice app i found

Hehehe, this is really one great app i found, i dont know of any of you ever used ios, but one of the best apps for apple is movie box. It does need a jailbreak, which is why the android version, which does not need root is so cool. The android version is called showbox.
It is like a free netflix, or hulu, only you dont need an account and monthly payments, hundreds, if not thousands, of tv show episodes and movies, very user friendly ui, clean and simple, there are both streaming and downloading options, in different quality and language either english or russian.
If youre interested, just download the apk from this link:
https://copy.com/PCLAQpAHQLOzKJ0G
Enjoy!
EDIT:
they recently added subtitles support, just install the apk and update when asked.
