[Q] Crunchyoll;xbmc addon Fire TV

I was wondering if anyone has the add-on Crunchyroll;xbmc installed and working on their Fire TV. I'm constantly getting a script failed error. The add-on works fine on my pc, so I'm wondering if it just doesn't work on the AFTV or I'm doing something wrong. TIA!

OUYA Store + KitKat

If I put a KitKat rom on my OUYA, is there any way to get the official/unofficial OUYA store on the device as well?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-tv/general/ouya-store-amazon-fire-tv-t2806575
Installing the apks from there will give you the ability to run the OUYA launcher and discover. There's another app on here that allows you to download OUYA games. Can't remember the name of it right now.

You can download Ouya Downloader from the play store. Pretty much lists all the apps you can get from the ouya store, but not in order so it's a bit of a pain navigating. But it works! I would post a link but it won't let me

Fire TV updated through the night. Lost Recovery and Root. :(

I installed recovery yesterday and updated to rbox's pre-rooted 5.0.4r2. I was trying to get Play Store working and totally forgot to stop updates.
Can anybody tell me if I'm able to down grade to a rootable image or if 5.0.5 can be rooted? I've noticed that the android.zip file the was in this guide is now missing. I'm a little bit stuck now.
Any help would be appreciated.

Liam08, did everything work out with you. I was also in your situation (accidental update) but after following the latest guide on AFTV News, my Fire TV is fine. Hope things go well for your device.

It did, the Fire TV is up and running as it was before. Currently setting up Kodi and then I'll be installing the Play Store.

Wait! Are you able to get the okay store fully operational?! Do you have a tutorial? I have the store APK and play services installed but on my Fire TV, the store will not grab a connection.

Android App Stalker on FireTV

Hi All,
I have a requirement which I have not been able to figure out. I have the Firetv Generation 2 with the latest OS. I also have the NVidia Shield and the Infomir's Stalker App purchased there. When I move the Extracted APK to the firetv, it installs ok but then starts off and brings a popup that the license file of google play is missing.
Is there a way I can bring the license file the application is looking for on the firetv or
can I install google play and install it through that?
There is no Firetv version of the application. Any help is much appreciated.

Would appreciate if anyone can help with this.
Post a link to the file and I'll see if I can strip the gplay from it.
Edit: never mind, I found the app and realized its a licence issue. Won't touch it here. Good luck.

Alternatively, Is there a way to root the box and or install Google Play and get it through that? I saw a guide to install Android TV Fully but that I believe requires Root. The Last time I rooted my firetv years ago, I bricked it and I have two bricked firetv's in the closet. Except for this app, I don't have any need to root.
You can install google play services to get apps that require it to run, but you can't sign in to get past the licence check. Not without root.

The last rootable firmware for FTV 2 was 5.2.1.1.

hi. I've just sent you a PM.

[Fire TV Stick 4k] European HBO Go stopped to work

I use FTV4k in Poland. Using apk's I installed Amazon Prime Video (for whatever reason built-in APV doesn't work in Poland, but one from Android TV works fine); Netflix, Apple TV... and HBO Go (Nordic).
For the past year all worked extremely well and stable, but about 2 weeks ago HBO stopped to work. When I run it, it starts, there are a few revolutions of the circle, and then it jumps back to the main menu. I uninstalled the app, reinstalled, I was able to activate it just fine, and right after activation it dropped back to main menu.
I'm using newest version available, Google Play services are also installed in the newest version... I'm out of ideas what else could I try.
Anyone would care to help me?
I've the same problem
As I have noted in this post, the latest update for Fire Stick 4K causes the HBO GO app to crash. The only solution is to root and downgrade (or watch via the Kodi HBO GO addon).
Additionally, the same thing happened with Fire Stick 2nd Gen in the latest update.
HBO GO should issue a fix, but they're unlikely to do so because Fire Sticks aren't supported.
Hello
Could you give me hint How I need downgrade my FSTV4K?
I flashed pre-rooted 2.7.1 then during stick registering auto update install 2.7.3
I disabled OTA then again install 2.7.1.
After that install HBO and try. Not working despite downgrade, so this show that in system there some modified files left.
I suggest that I need backup of 2.7.1 with blocked OTA. Unfortnatly dont have it
I had the same issues. First I thought a full wipe of the system partition would be enough (and flashing the "stock" 2.7.1 via TWRP), but ultimately I had to do a factory reset on 2.7.1, block update servers on my router and skip the updates step in the setup wizard.
Apparently, to pass the update check, but prevent the download, you must block three of the four update servers:
Code:
amzdigital-a.akamaihd.net
amzdigitaldownloads.edgesuite.net
updates.amazon.com
If that doesn't get you past the update screen, you can use the Fire Stick remote Android app on a phone, connect to the stick as soon as it's visible on the local network, putting it to sleep via the app and waking it up via the remote. That did it for me.
There are other ways of passing the initial wizard, they involve modifying build.prop to enable ADB and pushing your adb keys, there was a post about it somewhere. To do this, you have to connect the stick directly (no OTG) and do the boot-fastboot.sh step from the rooting instructions.
Here's an old (apparently patched) version of the app intended for Sony Bravia TV's that works on both 2nd gen and 4K. The icon is purple for some reason and there's no shadow box behind the subtitles, but it works.
I see that the link has been posted in the request section, but I'll leave it here just in case.

Hey, I just want to say thank you for providing that information to the community! Very appreciated, I've been searching for a clue about this for weeks now and just found your post here, downloaded and installed the app on the 4K, hbogo work like a charm again! Thanks!
Thank you for the patched version.
