Help with getting Hearthstone up and running - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Everyone,
So Blizzard just released Hearthstone for android and everyone's rushing to be able to play the game on their android devices. I've seen some comments about how to get it to work but I have had no luck as my app crashes when I get to the option to log in. I'm currently on the most recent Slimkat stable build so that may be another reason as to why it doesn't work.
Taking the info I received from a thread on reddit:
https://www.reddit.com/r/hearthstone/comments/2pestg/hearthstone_is_out_on_android_tablets/
Download the .apk linked by /u/Xeonelite
Download both .obb files also linked by /u/Xeonelite
Put .obb files in the directory /sdcard/Android/obb/com.blizzard.wtcg.hearthstone
Run the .apk to install (you may need to enable installation of unknown apps in your settings)
You should be good to go if your screen is larger than 6". If not, follow the next few steps.
Install the Xposed module "App Settings"
Enable "App Settings" in Xposed and find Hearthstone on the app list
Check the box that says "xlarge res."
Save the settings and exit
Launch Hearthstone, you should be good to go!

The link to the files are here in this comment. I've had no luck so far, but others have reported being able to get it working. Have any of you been able to get it running? Successfully got it working with my reply down below! If one of the builds doesn't work, then use the other linked!

Im just trying to get works too. I think it should works flashing some custom rom and decreasing the DPI. We only can test and test until get it

Hi, i just find that:
Hey there
It seems everybody is eager to play Hearthstone on their mobile phone, but they can't because their phones aren't 6 inch or bigger. There is a way to get around this, but it involves some decompiling/recompiling and changing two lines of code.
First of all, the tools that you need are:
To decompile the APK: This tool
To decompile CSharp: Decompile CSharp: This tool
This one requires a plugin though; when you start this software, look for the menu item "Plugins/Plugins Manager" and install the plugin called "Assembly Editor"
Other things you need:
The original APK: This one
The OBB files: These
Step one:
Fire up APK Studio and decompile the Hearthstone APK
Open up the AndroidManifest.xml file
Replace android:normalScreens="false" with android:normalScreens="true"
The same goes for android:smallScreens="false" -> android:smallScreens="true"
Save this file
Step two:
Fire up JustDecompile and open the file Assembly-Csharp.dll (your_decompiled_folder/assets/bin/Data/Managed/Assembly-CSharp.dll)
Look in <Default namespace> for the class "MobileCallbackManager"
(if you haven't by now, open up the plugin by selecting it in the Plugins window (Reflexil))
There is a method in there called "IsAndroidDeviceTabletSize()", click on it
In the window of the plugin, on the "Instructions" tab, you should now see a line that has a value of 6 in the Operand column (http://puu.sh/dx8bX/bff8ee08ad.png)
Right click on this and select edit and change the value to 1 (or whatever you want, just a number smaller than the size of your phone) and then click Update
In the list on the left, scroll all the way back up, right click on "Assembly-CSharp", select "Reflexil 1.8 -> Save As" and save it (trying to overwrite the original one caused problems for me)
(If you have problems with this one, go to step two.one)
Remove the Assembly-CSharp.dll file and rename the new dll to Assembly-CSharp.dll
Steo two.one (Only if you're having problems saving the DLL):
- On the same line where you clicked edit and changed the value from 6 to whatever. Right click again and select "Replace all with code"
- This should open a window showing some code, **just click cancel**
- Now try to save using the normal steps
Step three:
Open APK Studio again
Click on the hammer icon (make sure you have the project selected) to build your modified APK (rebuilt.apk in the build folder)
Step four (you can skip this if you already have the OBB files on your phone):
Put the OBB files on your SD card in the following folder
Android/obb/com.blizzard.wtcg.hearthstone/XXX.OBB
Step five:
Install the APK
Enjoy the game
I've tested this myself on a Nexus 4 (KitKat) and Nexus 5 (Lollipop) and it starts on both. However, at some point it just decides to crash on my Nexus 5 and I assume this is because of Lollipop.

So it turns out another build of Hearthstone works quite well. Thanks for your possible fix too zliffer, that may help others who might need it! This one is version 738705 instead of the 738702 which was linked before. This one doesn't require being on a GPE rom, just follow the same steps for the same files and it should work!
https://www.reddit.com/r/hearthstone/comments/2pestg/hearthstone_is_out_on_android_tablets/cmwfy74

Nice, i will try it now. in the other hand i had read that only changing the dpi in adb it should works

You could also try this.
Runs on my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 without problems. Without root!
Just copy files and install apk.

[N2E][1.1] TouchNooter 2.1.31

This Nooter is officially supported by The Nooter Project for Nook Simple Touch​
I'm not adding certain things because I don't believe they should be available as part of a rooting kit designed to give users more control of their devices. Things such as additional readers or CPU Clocks are up to the user to install themselves and needlessly putting them in Nooter creates app bloat that a user may or may not want. You can always drop Apps you want into \nooter\data\app and they will install automatically when you root the device. This Nooter is designed with the sole purpose of opening up the possibilities of the device by giving users Root, Google Apps, and other Apps which make the device more usable as an android device than just an e-reader.
What it does:
Enables ADB via uRamdisk
Installs adbWireless
Installs Button Savior
Installs NookTouch Tools
Installs Amazon Marketplace
Installs su and Superuser.apk
Installs ADW + E-ink Friendly Theme
Installs Busybox & Busybox Installer/Uninstaller
Installs Gapps (Gmail, Market, Youtube, Others)
Installs NookColor Tools (To Enable Non-Market Installs)
System Files that get Modified:
/system/build.prop - Enabling Google Check In
packages.xml - Allows Gapps to install properly.
framework.jar - Should allow a proper Android ID to generate.
Changes:
January 26, 2012 -
Tested Fix: ADW not installing - Caused by spaces in ADW's Filename in 2.1.26
Added: Amazon Marketplace, Opera Mini
January 26, 2012 -
Added: adbWireless, SuperManager (Root File Manager, APK Manager, other useful tools), Busybox Installer/Uninstaller
Untested Fix: Market 1 Day wait
Updated: busybox, ButtonSavior.apk, su & SuperUser.apk
November 20, 2011 -
Removed: GoLauncher, LiveWallPaper Picker, maybe some other stuff.
Added: New Market, ADW with Black Minimalist Theme, NookTouchTools.
New: Rooting Image
June 24, 2011 -
Removed: Multitouch Permission
Added: Modified framework.jar
June 22, 2011 - Fixed: Script not running at boot.
June 20, 2011 - Initial Release
Before you begin:
You must already have a registered Nook Simple Touch
You must have a Gmail/Youtube linked Account. IF you used a Gmail account for B&N Registration you should use that one for this process.
You must either have dd (Linux) or WinImage (Windows) software.
You must have an external microSDCard reader or this will not work. Using the Nook Simple Touch can result in it becoming unusable (bricked).
You must have enough intelligence to follow instructions.
Let's get started:
Download TouchNooter from here: touchnooter-2-1-31.zip - Uploaded
Linux: Unzip and use dd if=touchnooter-xx-xx-xx.img of=/dev/sdcard (where xx-xx-xx is the version number)
Windows: Unzip and use WinImage to "Restore Virtual Hard Disk Image" to your SDcard.
Windows Alternative: https://launchpad.net/win32-image-writer/+download
If you wish to use Underclocking follow these steps
Download Underclock.zip from uploaded attachments
Unzip it and place the data folder in /nooter/
Check that the com.antutu.CpuMasterFree folder is in the /nooter/data/data folder
Check that com.antutu.CpuMasterFree.apk is in /nooter/data/app
Power off your Nook Simple Touch.
Insert TouchNooter SDcard into your Nook Simple Touch.
Power on your Nook Simple Touch.
You should see the new TouchNooter boot screen, follow all instructions.
That was the hard part, now to the simple stuff.
Upon boot unlock your screen.
At the Android Welcome Screen skip Sign In.
Enable Location Services when given the option.
Connect to Wifi and launch Youtube from ADW's App Drawer (Or the App Drawer of your Choice).
Click the Menu button (The right one in the middle of the status bar).
Select "My Channel" and Login using your Gmail Account.
Exit Youtube and Launch Gmail from ADW's App Drawer.
Sync your Gmail Account and Exit. (If it fails to sync that is fine.)
At this time Market fails and you must wait up to a day. Just check it every so often. Future updates should fix this.
Open up Market and Accept Terms and Service.
If you made it this far your nook should be successfully Rooted. Go Download an App to make sure.
Enable Non-Market Installs by running the NookColor Tools App.
If your Youtube fails to launch Uninstall and Reinstall Youtube from /data/app
Go to Settings > Device Info > SdCard > UnMount > Format

Works great
Hi
It works great, thanks.
Beside the full GApps do you know if there's a way today to get the Market working on a firmware 1.1 with TouchNooter 1.11.11 ?

Go through all the steps manually with something like noogie. The reason TouchNooter can't do it is because to get the script to run requires the the system to boot, replacing the files while the system is active will cause the system to crash when you go to reboot it to complete the steps for Market. Because of this to install Gapps you have to use a method that doesn't require the system to be active like Noogie.
Another method which would allow us to add Gapps, is if someone completed a version of CWM for Nook Touch.
Dear Gabriel,
somehow i gained working market on my Nook with 1.1. I used the older touchnooter with subplanted framework.jar and uRamdisk (wifi one). Then i've done all steps as in guide. Market however didn't saw any applications. I removed youtube app, and it started working! Then updated market to that one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15084704&postcount=51 using adb.
"adb install -r Vending.apk"
And right now i'm cool.
I've done the root for 1.1 manually, and it was a bit of a pain, so everybody should be thanking Gabrial here for streamlining the process a bit and not having to hunt down all the elements necessary to make a rooted Nook useful. (It's not actually difficult, but nobody has centralized *all* of the info even if much of it can be found in the Knowledge Base thread, including e.g. that you need Busybox even for something as simple as the cp command.)
domi.nos-
Is the -r switch for reinstallations any different than removing the old Vending.apk and then installing the new one? I still have not got market 100%; search won't work. Is it working for you? It's not really that big a deal because I only need a few apps but all the same it'd be nice...
Is it necessary to revert to original Nook ROM (the backup I've made before rooting the Nook Touch)?
No as a see it does not search. ;/ But in my opinion it is more important to find out why did my nook (any everyone elses' as i presume) disappear from pc market website.
But as i remember in the previous 1.01 software market couldn't do true way of searching, it was only showing most used searches.
This may sound dump, but I don't have a lot of knowledge with android yet.
This root is without any google apps, Can I download the google apps apks and install them on my device?
Dark_hawk,
From what I read from Gabrial, the only way to install Gapps if when nook is booting, and there is no safe way as from now. I'm still checking, though.
My experience so far? 1.1, touchnootered with 1.11.11, backup recovered with titanium backup pro (which worked quite well, I might add), and besides market, everything else is working?
I'm looking for info on how to install Gapps, or market at least, but no luck yet. Gabrial mentioned something about using noogie, but I don't even know where to look for Gapps version that may work on Nook STR>

How can I install Side-loaded APK?
I think, its dumb NB question... but I can not figure out, how I can install side-loaded APKs... I copied APKs to Nook but just not find a way to install them on nook... Is this something simple ? or not that simple as I think?
WORKS WITH 1.1.0 and gapps!

The Easy method above worked perfectly with my new nook running 1.1.0.
all I would add is that I got search working in the market by toggling "allow non market apps" in Nook Tools app, then installing the vending.apk file from my sd card with ES file explorer as an application. just select yes when it asks you to replace system app.
To get ES file explorer to begin with, I scrolled thru the whole list of top free apps, which took awhile.
Apps that I was able to install and work:
ES file explorer, Facebook, Google reader, Google voice, XDA app, Opera mobile, Opera mini, Google+, Quickpic and Paint easy.
Thanks to everyone for all the hard work that made it easy for a N00b like me to root and customize my NST!

+1 It seems ES File Explorer is not installed!
Well, I followed the recipe:
- Restored
- Resetted
- Updated to 1.1.0
- Touchnootered with 1.6.24 and framework and uramdisk for 1.1.0
- Three locked boots (at least 5 minutes each)
- When tried without SD, got back to regular nook!!!!
I did register, though, after reset. Would that make a difference???
Gotta try.
I've tried to install ESFile Explorer through browser but with no results. Besides, browser crashes when, for instance, I try to write something on google.
One way to side-load apk's

The way I did it was to copy apk's to my SD card, then download a file explorer/manager app from the market (my personal favorite is ES file explorer), which allows you to view the contents of your SD card, and select apk's to install.

It sounds like you did it the exact same way I did. Just to make sure did you delete the old Framework and uramdisk files, then copy/rename their replacements to match the original files? i.e. framework.jar and uRamdisk

I think the easiest way to get it would be from the market. if you haven't updated the vending.apk file to fix searching the market then you would have to use the category buttons at the top of the market to browse for it and install it.
Yes, I deleted the old version, installed uRamdisk usb 1.1 and framework 1.1.jar and renamed them properly (same name as erased files).
Did it all over again, no registering, and same result: after running for 3 times, went back to regular nook STR!!!
Forget about the restart the process three times, do it like this:
1) Use nookRestore to restore /system.
2) Erase and Deregistered to wipe /data
(If it dosnt let you, force it shutting down your nook, then starting it up, and when the screen flickers press right and left bottom buttons, hold for 5+ seconds).
3) Register, or not, as you preffer.
4) Apply 1.1 firmware update.
5) Open the TouchNooter 1.6.24 image and inside the nooter folder, search and substitude the uRamdisk for this one http://www.multiupload.com/CJ981FWPJG
and framework.jar for this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19201466&postcount=352.
6) Use the new TouchNooter 1.6.24 to root your device. Follow the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1132693
If it dosnt work, try again until it works.
7) Continue with registering: Youtube (401 error) --> GMail --> Market.
8) Download adb, and unzip it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1124160&page=6
download this vending apk:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1124160&page=6
and sqlite3:
http://www.sqlite.org/sqlite-shell-win32-x86-3070900.zip
copy the apk and sqlite3 tothefolderyouunzippedadb/platform-tools , open cmd and then:
cd tothefolderyouunzippedadb/platform-tools
adb connect yournooktouchip
Now we are going to enable non market apps use my method, or what madmachinist said:
adb shell
mount -o rw,remount -t ext2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
adb pull /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db settings.db
sqlite3 settings.db "update secure set value=1 where name='install_non_market_apps';"
adb push settings.db /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
adb reboot
now when NST reboots:
cd tothefolderyouunzippedadb/platform-tools
adb connect yournooktouchip
adb install Vending.apk
adb reboot
You are done, everything should work now.

[How To] Install and launch AdvancedConfigTool and RegistryEditor on device 2nd gen.

Good evening ladies and gentleman.
I have HTC Titan I (x310e) with developer unlock and I was unable install and launch Julien Schapman apps - Advanced Config Tool and RegistryEditor. I was looking for a solution and today I have that.
We have to (my movie):
1. Download xap files:
- Advanced Config Tool - http://www.touchxperience.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=890 (working good only version 1.5.0.0 to install in settings)
- RegistryEditor - http://www.touchxperience.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=593 (working good only version 1.1.0.0)
2. Rename extension from *.xap to *.zip.
3. Open these with system (Win7) support (not 7zip, WinRAR, etc.).
4. Cut file: WMAppManifest.xml and paste in other folder.
5. Open that file with system text editor (right click and select edit).
6. Remove line with text: "INTEROPSERVICES" and save the changes.
7. Copy this file to zip folder with app.
8. Change it back to a *.xap extension and now we can deploy him.
Enjoy
EDIT
SORRRY APP LAUNCH BUT NOT WORKING. I LOOKING FOR NEXT METHOD.
it is not possible. Interop is what is required to make the app work. So without it you can install it but it wont work hence there is no way to do what you want currently
Relatedly, this fact has been known for... ever since the Mago betas came out, I think? So, probably about half the lifetime of the OS. I guess when things are that old, it's easier to "discover" stuff that doesn't work than read the old threads.
Your phone is interop-locked. You can only install or run apps without ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES, unless those apps come from the Marketplace. As a general rule, if an app requests ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES (or other capabilities), that's because it's using it for something...

Followed the method to insall Advanced Config. Now how can I uninstall it? Since I have 3 unsigned app limit, so I cant afford to waste a slot on an app that highly desirable but not useful.

So I solved my problem with the Xperia S LT26i Chinese:
I found the rom ITA LT26i_6.1.A.2.50_1257-5499_Generic_Italy.zip
and I installed it with flashtool
It was very simple
I did not understand if the device is rooted now
Now the device is fully Italian as if I had bought in my country
Ciao!
Changing file permissions was critical
Thanks for the information and the attachments xjarl!
This worked perfectly for me, but only after I changed the permissions on the 3 files! I bought a Coolpad (Yulong) 8022 with Android 2.3.7 in China through China Mobile. I rooted the phone but was unable to install Google Play until I found this post. I downloaded the attachment, extracted the files and copied the 3 APK files to my system/app folder and rebooted. After installing Google Play and running it, I could browse all the apps in the store but I could not download or install them. The progress bar didn't move.
So I launched Root Explorer and went to the system/app folder. Then I changed the permissions of the 3 APKs: GoogleServicesFramework.apk, GoogleLoginService.apk and Google_Play-v3.8.17.apk to rw-r--r-- to match all the other files in the folder and rebooted. Since then everything has been working fine! Now I can browse the App store and download and install files without a problem!
So, the steps I recommend are:
1. Root your phone.
2. Download the attachment above.
3. Extract GoogleServicesFramework.apk, GoogleLoginService.apk and Google_Play-v3.8.17.apk from the RAR file and copy them to the system/app folder on your phone with Root Explorer.
4. In Root Explorer click Mount R/W. Change the permissions of the 3 files to match the permissions of the other files in the folder (rw-r--r--). Then click Mount R/O and exit Root Explorer.
5. Reboot your phone.
6. Go to Accounts & Sync in your phone's settings, click Add account and enter your Google/GMail account details.
7. Go to your apps and Launch Google Play.
I'm guessing that this will work on any Android phone. Good luck!
Thanks for shared.
I get the same problems, but my phone use Spreadtrum CPU SC6820 and it very hard to root.
If not root then can use this solution?

It is a very good solution and I tested in my China mobile Note2: GT-N7108 and it works fine.
Thank you very much.

Crashing
I hope someone can help me here. I have a Green Orange N1.
The first thing i tried was to simply install vending apk.
App was crashing before loading.
I tried this method and followed all steps
Root - adding 3 apk to system/app - set permissions- but no luck. Google play still crashes.
I tried also with different G Play versions and still i can't access the application.
Do you have any idea about other steps?

I got it working by downloading different versions of GoogleServicesFramework
i have found 3 versions on the first page searching for GoogleServicesFramework.apk on google
One of them was 2.3M not 4M and it worked. i have also downloaded different GoogleLoginService
Now all google apps work perfectly except for voice search... looks like it doesn't connect.
I can give commands and it keeps searching. don't know if it depends on the GoogleLoginService i installed.
My solution is probably messing up something.
It would be really nice to know which versions of Framework or LoginServices are available andhow to choose the right ones for 4.2 or 4.1.
hope someone can explain here

This kinda works with a bit of play around
These files are KING!!!!
This method works if you root your phone!
I rooted my phone(Samsung Galaxy S4) bought from China loaded with spam and bloatware. The phone by default has a whole load of crap installed into the system apps folder and can't be deleted unless rooted!!!
I rooted using:
Odin3 v3.07
cofface_I9500_cwm_recovery_en_new.tar
Google_play.rar
SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1_3_2300_0
System App Remover
Root Explorer
Step 1: Put phone in USB debugging mode in order for ODIN to successfully detect and install 'cofface_I9500_cwm_recovery_en_new.tar'
Step 2: Power phone on holding Volume Down, Menu Button and Power Button. (This put it in download mode)
Step 3: Plug phone into PC(Ensure USB drivers have been installed)
Step 4: Open ODIN
Step 5: Select PDA and locate 'cofface_I9500_cwm_recovery_en_new.tar'
Step 6: Click Start (Sit back it takes a few)
Step 7: Once completed immediately unplug battery before phone restarts.(This apparently ensures the CWM will root the phone for S4 new security)
Step 8: Power phone on using Volume Up, Menu Button and Power Button.
Step 9: Root phone option
Step 10: Install from SD card
Step 11: Select the CWM option
Step 12: Restart phone from the options
Step 13 : Super User app should now be installed on the phone
Step 14 : Given that you can't access google play you may need to download apps via pc or web browser on your mobile.
Step 15 : Download the following apps a) Root Explorer b) System App Remover.
Step 14 : Be smart and write down the names of the apps you need to remove and take note of the icons.
Step 15 : Delete what you can through System App Remover (Some will not delete through this app but you'll understand a little later)
Step 16 : Once you've deleted what you can, open Root explorer.
Step 17 : Copy the Google Play files (There are 3) into a directory you can find on your phone.
Step 18 : These files should be stored on SD in Root Explorer, Tap Hold and Move.
Step 19 : Go to System then Apps.
Step 20 : Paste and extract the folder.
Step 21 : Delete the remaining apps that System App Remover couldn't remove.( be careful deleting the wrong apps can be troublesome)
Step 22: NB!!!! Change the permissions on theses 3 apps to all permissions or your phone will keep bringing up alerts and freezing!!!!!
Step 23 : In any event copying the framework from another device you will be forced to do a Factory Reset to have it all fully functional!!!!
This worked for me. Thought I'd put the full list of instructions because it took me a few hours to gather all this info from a mix of sites.
All credit to everyone I resourced to finally get this working!!! This seems to have been an unresolved one on many sites with no tutorials for newbs.

AR Core Google Measure on OP3

Anyone made the Measure app work on their OP3?
I'm also having problems what's brought me here. I was trying different versions and nothing works :/
Yep, works perfectly fine here. Do other AR Core apps work for you?
Actually I have a problem with installing AR Core itself, do you have a link to proper version?
Also can't get it to work. I tried a few different versions of the ARCore apk now, but when opening the measure app all I get is different error messages.

Do you have a OnePlus 3 or 3T?
I've had ARC running earlier, but can't get the Measure app to work. I can install both APKs, but I get error when starting the Measure app.

I have the 3.
What I did was the following:
1) Download and install the latest ARCore apk from apkmirror: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/arcore/arcore-1-3-180604066-release/
2) Sideload an ARCore-enabled app like Just a Line or IKEA Place (again, from APK Mirror) and launch it so it crashes the first time.
3) Using a root explorer, go to /data/data/com.google.ar.core/files/device_profile_database/ and find the file for the OnePlus 3T (it will have "OnePlus3T" in its name).
4) Rename/Remove the "T" from "OnePlus3T" in the file name.
5) Launch an ARCore-enabled app again and it should work flawlessly.

... or it replies to you then with the error: " This device does not support AR" instead of hanging at start ^^
Fobos531´s instructions seem to work well for me. I can use the measure app now. Though I'm not yet sure how exact it is. Haven't had much time yet for testing it.
For reference, I've got OP3 (not T) running NitrogenOS 8.1
Fixed, I completely kicked ARCore APK and reinstalled. Now it works. AR Stickers does not, but I think that I use the wrong APK...

Can you try manually creating the file in that case? Create a "files" folder, inside create a folder named "device_profile_database" and inside that folder create a file named "device_profile_OnePlus3_colon_8.textproto" (make sure .textproto is the extension). Put this in the file: https://gist.github.com/fobos531/64cd45838ffb6a143a83306882d208b6
Also the file should have read+write permissions only for the owner (you can do "chmod 600 /data/data/com.google.ar.core/files/device_profile_database/device_profile_OnePlus3_colon_8.textproto") to achieve this.

Same happened to me. Problem was a too old apk (didn't use the version from the download link above at first, thought I had the right one)
Sure you used that one?

This works well for me.
I have the Skulshady's ARCore before. I uninstall it and install the latest version from apkmiror, then follow this guide and works fine.
Thanks @Fobos531 , your way works for me like a charm. OOS 5.0.3 with Magisk. Installed ArCore 1.3 from apkmirror, then Ikea app, let it crash one time, edited the filename and everything works now.
i installed the lasr ar core from apk mirror,
and downloaded measures from play store
and i didnt do anything else
and its working fine.

If you are able to download measure app from play store then it means, your phone supports this, you don't need to do anything else

Well that was really nice of you to share that patched APK with the rest of us in case someone else has the same issue. We really appreciate that.
Can you please share the patched APK @profusion ?
Or can @nicefile share again his APK?
Hi Everyone,
So I wanted to be able to use the HBO app as well, and hence starting messing around with the various tools available for this purpose. Although Android Studio would be a better choice, for this specific purpose I feel these tools are faster.
I will have to say that I managed to get HBO GO for Eastern Europe to work on Firestick, but although I am able to install HBO Spain it will not launch.
The idea was right in basically changing version and build codes to "platformBuildVersionCode="22" platformBuildVersionName="5.1.0">" in the manifest.xml. But it is not that simple as the apk will then need to be aligned and resigned with a different keystore. This is easily done with various tools. Things I did:
1) Using apktools decompile the apk (i.e. ".\apktool d appname.apk)
2) Open "Androidmanifest.xml" in the project directory.
3) Change both "platformBuildVersionCode" and "platformBuildVersionName" to the appropriate sdk. Usually, for a newer firestick it would be "platformBuildVersionCode="22" platformBuildVersionName="5.1.0" - save the file.
4) Recompile the apk (i.e. ".\apktool b projectfoldername")
Now when trying to install the apk using adb you should get:
[INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_NO_CERTIFICATES]
This is a good sign and means the manifest was modified correctly. But the apk will now need to be resigned by:
1) Using zipalign to re-align your achive.
2) Place the zipalign.bat and Input/Output folders where "debug.keystore" is located (probably User/YourName/.android). If you can't find keystore there, just open and close a new project with android studio and it should be created.
3) Place your modified apk in the Input folder and re-align with "zipalign -v 4 C:\nameofapp.apk C:\nameofappc.apk
After a success message, copy your re-aligned apk from "Output." Lastly, the re-signing process. You can open a prompt in Android Studio/jre/bin as that's usually where the tools you need are.
1) Paste the apk from "Output" in the folder. Create debug.keystore by typing "keytool -genkey -v -keystore debug.keystore -alias yourappname.apk -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 20000" - write what you wish in the prompts (name, pass etc).
2) Get a certificate with "jarsigner -verbose -keystore debug.keystore C:\yourappname.apk yourappname.apk". Remember that the app needs to be the re-aligned version. Paste it in the appropriate directory.
Then you will need to install the finished apk with your method, but I always use adb since it's easiest. Simply copy the finished apk into your adb directory, then:
1) .\ adb install C:/appname
That's about it. If you have any questions you can ask here, I'm sure someone will either respond (as lots of competent people here) or I can respond myself.
Edit: If you are wondering "why a guy who has 1 post is editing this" it's very simple. I wanted to watch HBO spain without Kodi (I hate it). So I googled a solution on how to import the current app into firestick. And I found this page, which was incomplete, but it was probably the best resource on how to do this.
Anyone made patch for this?

First, uninstall the old versoin of the app. And install this one. (The update not working, becouse of the different signing key.)
