Hi I'm living in Poland and currently I cant download twitch from amazon store its locked can someone upload installation apk file from north or south america to fire tv or fire stick. Please
Twitch works way better on the fire stick inside kodi as an addon, the normal twitch app lags too much on my fire stick, the kodi addon works flawlessly

Is there any way to set up the Fire TV as a Chromecast RECEIVER so I don't have to use both my Chromecast and the Fire TV?
NOTE: As of update 51.1.4.0_user_514006420, there is now a "display mirroring" option. This allows casting from any device that supports Miracast - I wish it supported Chromecast as well, but it's better than nothing.

I have not used it, I use AllCast for Fire TV instead.
I am really looking for a way to get apps that officially support Chromecast to get to my Fire TV. I have used allcast, but that only seems to stream photos and videos from within the AllCast app. That Spark app looks cool anyway though. I'd like to see how that is. Thanks!
I just realized that in the YouTube app on Android, you can "cast" to Fire TV. I didn't realize that! That seems to be the only app that supports it though. Other apps do not show my Fire TV when I tap the "cast" icon. Those apps on the Fire TV must have to specifially code for that...unless someone can trick the Fire TV into thinking it's a Chromecast!

Push.
Got it for christmas and thought this feature would be already in it.
I wanna use the cast button in apps.
Any ideas
Yes, by now, please refer to this thread for free trial of YouMap cast receiver:

Does anyone know where I can find the apk download for the paid version of Youmap that works on Amazon Fire TV stick?
The app was taken off the Amazon App Store, so I was wondering if I purchased the $9.99 app from the Google Play Store, would that apk work on the Fire TV?
Thanks.

That app was removed by amazon at the request of google (theres a story to that) but in a nutshell no chromecast for aftv. I believe the app will only work till the end of 2015 and you cant buy it anymore.
I was lucky and bought nexus player for $25 at target. Chromecast works perfectly with no fuss but id like a better solution for aftv.
Hi ive just installed xbmc for amazon fire tv. Just wondered if there is away to add apk files inside xbmc. Rather than on sidebar? Also tried adding live tv as it worked well on pc. No success on amazon fire tv yet. Many thanks
I've got IPTV based LIVE TV working on XBMC without a problem, so I'm betting it works.
May i ask how you did it please. Because the way i did it via px wouldnt work on amazon fire tv.
Thinking about getting a fire tv stick, as I run kodi currently on my phone and cast to my tv using Chromecast...generally works great except for live football streams which seem to come in don't propriety format flash style which prevent me from casting those..I can mirror my screen easily but I list some quality and it's not ideal...could I install kodi on a fire tv stick as is and have it stream directly to that? That's my main need from any new device I purchase
Thanks for advice!

There's a tool to work with your Fire TV stick, just three threads under your thread... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2736774

You don't need root to install "normal" apps.
What's especially slick (I guess from a recent firmware update) is that if you sideload an app to a FireTV that is actually available in the general Amazon App Store (worked for me with Kodi, SPMC and Crunchyroll), then install the same app through the Amazon App Store on an Android device connected to the same Amazon account as the FireTV, after your account syncs up the FireTV is tricked into showing the app on the FireTV Recent row on the home page.
FYI, I've had the Stick for about 2 weeks: for $40 it's awesome. I've seen some people state that SPMC works better than Kodi, but I haven't noticed any difference yet. No issues with live streams in Sportsdevil or Vdubt25.

How do you stream kodi to your chromecast? I've tried multiple different ways and none work.
Im sure you can screen cast your screen to CC and then whatevers on your phone will come up on your tv. thats how I used it on my note 4
The reason I ask is because I bought the wrong fire TV, I bought the US version when I should have bought the international version from my country. Mind you some apps work (Netflix, YouTube) in my country but not Prime Video App, is geo restricted.
I've been using the web version of prime video as a walk around but I would very much like to try the apk.
I've downloaded the Prime Video APK for nvidia shield and xiaomi tv but they seem to work a bit sluggish on my fire stick, and it often freezes.
I hope I'm not alone in this situation and someone found some sort of solution.
I have the same issue. I installed the androidTV version which seems to be working fine but the video quality is terrible. Not sure if it is the app or something else. Could not sideload the prime video apk from google app store because it is conflicting with the existing installation.

Where did you download this? I have a Xiaomi Mi Box S and have been looking for a version of Prime Video that works. It's not in my Google Play Store. Perhaps the Nvidia Shield version would work. Thanks
Did you solved this issue?
I bought an Fire TV Stick (1st gen) from UK, now I can't watch anything from Prime Video because I'm in Brazil.
I've downloaded the Prime Video apk from apkpure, but its installation fails, maybe because the stick it's Prime Video version already installed.

when you register fire stick you will get international prime apk with software update, but unfortunately us prime will still be present on home screen.
