Hey everyone,
I just set this up today and it worked great. I am a Steelers fan, but I live in Bengals country. That means I don't get to see many Steelers games, because they aren't broadcasts locally on TV.
So I used a GPS spoofing app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.incorporateapps.fakegps.fre
And a Chromecast dongle hooked to my TV:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.chromecast.app
And the NFL Mobile app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gotv.nflgamecenter.us.lite
Enable "Mock Locations" in Developer Options.
Open Fake GPS app and enable a location where you know your game is broadcasting.
Open NFL mobile app and voila!! You now have access to the local games being broadcast on FOX and CBS for wherever you set your fake GPS location to.
You also need to enable "Screen Cast" in the Chromecast app, so you can mirror your phone screen to the TV. Set your screen timeout as high as you can.
I'm sure someone has already done this, but this was my first time, and it worked like a charm.
You may have to kill the NFL app to get it to switch locations as you change your fake GPS location. I always set my location first, then make sure my NFL mobile app is completely killed. Then just restart the NFL app. The new games should populate in the watch now section.
Hope this comes in handy to someone!

The GPS spoofing should still work, but you can no longer screencast NFL mobile. It's blocked on the TV as of last night.
We need an app or something that will cloak the screen mirroring...

RE:
The NFL mobile app developers must have read your post because now Chromecast mirroring does not work and neither does allowing mock locations using an gps spoofer. :crying:
They have a DRM protection in there. It checks to see if your phone is running mock locations and/or has developer options turned on. It also does not work with SideSync. It seems to be recognizing the dual streaming over a wifi connection.

No recent update since the Oct date that has been mentioned. Fake GPS app that the first poster noted did not work with nfl mobile. Samsung Galaxy S4 being used. Perhaps you have a different device.

Chromecast part not working anymore just an fyi they blocked it
Got a work around!
I just got an Amazon Fire Stick and messing around with it. I installed koush's beta mirror apk on my note 3 and all cast on the stick. Connect it and then open up nfl mobile apk. The t would of course start saying it can't be mirrored etc. That's when you open up Multiwindow with something like chrome in the other window. Click back and fourth between the two and viola should be able to stream. It might take a couple tries and I had a couple of times where sound wouldn't catch up just shut beta mirror and reopen and try again. I cancelled cable due to never watching it but needed my fix. Of course it's a little laggy and not perfect but it's a work around that's watchable! I don't have a chromecast but seeing as this was two apks I downloaded and installed off the store it shouldn't matter. Hope this helps someone I k of its the end of the season but you should still be able to get probowl/superbowl/nfl now/nfl network etc to work and probably other programs that block mirroring I haven't tried but hey can't hurt. Who'd thunk touch wiz would actually be a benefit for a change!
What apks did you download?

ROFL that's epic.
I suggest getting and setting up "Llama", I LOVE that app! Switches your profiles based on whatever rules you set. IE It puts my phone in Quiet and enables WiFi when at the office M-F between certain times, goes into Car mode on the way to/from the office, back into quiet if i work at my night job based on if i'm in the area designated, then silent mode to sleep and launches Lightning Bug app to help wife and I sleep.
DesktopVizualizer is another sweet App to customize any icon
LauncherPro and Nova Launcher are GREAT
Dropbox and AwesomeDrop are other favorites to make life easier
Get some game emulators -N64oid, Genisoid, etc -can use PS3 and XBox360 controllers with USB OTG cable
Robin is a sweet "assistant" for car use with 100% hands free aside from swiping your hand above the phone to get "Robin's" attention
Ok after stumbling accross this post, I have managed to do absolutely nothing at all work related today. wifikill is awesome. After turning on my wifi and connecting to a network, wifikill showed 186 connections. Going down the line and dissabling one at a time is truly comical. You dont know who has what ip but looking around you see people going like wtf happened. Great find thanks

Has anyone found (or created an app) to take screenshots on the OUYA?
I know there's the ADB method, but I really just want an internal application of button setup of some sort; the ADB over WiFi is semi buggy for me and I don't want to disconnect my OUYA from the TV to attach to the computer (then I can't see the screen of course...).
Can anyone think of a method without ADB?
You may try and side load airdroid on to the ouya. The app has a screen capture option along with remove control of your android device from a web browser.
Ouya has multitasking disabled. When an app isnt running in the foreground, it is killed. Its a performance thing to make games run more bettererer. I dont think any screenshot app would work out well with this option turned on.

I thought this originally, too, but I've found it doesn't effect the performance too much. I've had multitasking on for 3-4 daays now (I use my OUYA every day for hours) and have seen very little difference.

As a side question, were do most people put their sideloaded APKs? So far all I have done is clickrd on them within my Box.com app and they just start.
I use the install directly feature of AirDroid, the apk is only temporarily transferred to the OUYA and then deleted after install, like as if you were downloading it from the Play store or Amazon market.

yeah but this isn't uncommon... some apps look for either wifi or mobile network and just won't work on the OUYA without Wifi. It's one of those things that dev's of those apps probably never thought of a Android device running with ethernet.

It doesn't really at all honestly; though I have mine to only allow 3 background processes at 1 time. The only effect it has is on xbmc if you're watching 1080P with a heavy skin.
[Update] There is no screenshot app that I have found that works for OUYA (rooted, busybox, SuperSU); I resorted to adb over the network with https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wmendez.adbovertcp and manually triggered screencaps from my tablet.

Hey guys, I am looking for the wwe network apk directly from the fire tv, I have a tronsmart s89-h android box, and cannot get the standard wwe network app to work, I am hoping that this will solve all my issues but i cannot find a way to get the apk anywhere. I would appreciate your help! thanks!
Sorry, I'm just heading off to work, but when I get home, I can pull the apk for you.
Let me guess. The issue you're having is with GPS, right? That was the problem I had before the FireTV version came out

That would be amazing! and Yes i Believe the issue has come down to the device not having any kind of gps, Im assuming the fire tv does not have that check, plus it is much more suited for a tv, (landscape mode!)
Alright, as promised, here's the apk. Current version is 1.0.1
It's basically the same UI as the PS3 app, but I'll admit, it's a little buggy at times.
In any case, enjoy! http://www39.zippyshare.com/v/84400404/file.html

Well, After some playing around, it isnt exactly usable. First off on the menu there is a about an inch or 2 white space on the bottom and right side of screen, i believe this can be fixed with some kind of dpi mod, but not totally sure. secondly, only the home screen loads images, ie, whats playing now, whats coming up, if u go to pay per views, it is just empty boxes with borders, none of the images load until you get to the actual video description, but you really have no idea what you are clicking. Lastly when playing a video (which does indeed work) with my tronsmart tsm-01 air mote i could not do anything but go back, i could not pause i could not get the menu up. i could not fast forward etc. only could go back. So while it is useable to watch summerslam, with no dvr feature thats really about it. maybe the dpi issue will fix everything who knows, I only played around with it for about 15 minutes as i headed to work, but its hardly worth it right now.
As far as getting the amazon app store. probably used more effort typing in this forum than to just simply google 'android app store' : http://bit.ly/uC6tic

XFinity app works fine with a mouse & the FVT remote. I mostly need the mouse to able to go thru live or shows & pick one. The FTV remote is needed to go back. The app should work too. Plan to test a K400 keyboard next.. The one thing I found odd is if you unplug the FTV's power you will loose your sign-in info. Not sure why it's not saved like on other apps..
Like stated before use WRRemote apk from the Play Store

Let us know how the new PIA app works on FTV's. And which FTV it is (1st or 2nd Gen or FTVS) ? I am also guessing it's a new Android PIA app right ?

it reports that its working through the app, but if you check
your ip on the firetv you'll find that in actual fact it
doesnt change at all

I am guessing your FTV Gen 1 is still on FireOS 3 ? Seems FireOS 5 is better with VPN's then FireOS 3. Or are you running unRooted on latest FW ?

It works...
I keep connecting and disconnecting until it connected to the States. It always chose the faster ping.
I'm from Canada and was able to long into Pandora.
The app updated on my phone then I extracted the file and side load in Fire TV2 not rooted with latest firmware.

You can check if the IP is being hidden correctly by opening ES File Explorer & adding a link to Favorites:
https://dnsleaktest.com/
I just tried it (Not the PIA app but just doing a DNSLeakTest) on my FTV1 on FireOS 3. It showed my current IP & I was even able to do an Extended test. Let us know if you can confirm the changed on IP @ different times & if the app ever times out with time of inactivity.
I only did per app... And test with Pandora and it recognized US address. For Canadian it app will not load.
I will test more later.

You guessed wrong, I'm on 5.0.3 and rooted, are you sure the ip address of your firetv is definitely changing ?

I only tested that DNSLeakTest could be loaded on ES File Explorer. I am still waiting for a PreRooted ROM to upgrade to FireOS 5. Thought about Un-Rooting & upgrading & then re-Rooting but all my FTV1's have fully unlocked bootloaders & I did not want to loose that. So I haven't even tried the PIA app since I know FireOS 3 is much worst with VPN's. Hopefully @vic_singh would be able to test things later or maybe someone else.
I'm must at work and will test after the basketball game tonight....

My IP address needs to be change before I can run Pandora or for Disney Junior to give me a activation code.

True, So it is working. How long do u usually listen non stop to Pandora on it. Was wondering if it times out after certain time.
What we actually need is for someone to test it on a FTV1 on FW 5 Rooted & UnRooted.

I setup Dropbox account on ES file manager then download the apk online and place it into Dropbox folder.
Install ES file manager on Fire tv then go to cloud... And log into Dropbox.
Install pia.apk from there.
