Hey all,
So I installed CM 11 on my S3 today and was downloading a Google Play Movie I got in HD but the download only shows 350mb. But if I use stock rom it downloads and streams in HD. Anyone have a solution to this? Any help would be appreciated thanks! :fingers-crossed:
Might be related to drm. Otherwise im just not sure. Have you tried a different cm/aosp based rom?
Yes infact I have tried few other roms too. However now it is doing something strange. It says that I have already downloaded to the max number of devices. Unfortunately, I don't have some of those devices anymore to unpin the downloads from. Is there any way I can delete the downloads online or something?
That im not sure about as I dont use google for movies or media. If nobody else knows you can try to email google support to see if they can do that on their end.
Sorry I dont know about your initial problem. Hopefully someone who knows more about cm than me will have an idea for you.
Is it possible to port google play music from the nexus player to the Amazon fire TV. Im asking this question because the google play music apk that came with the nexus player dose not require touch navigation, its design specifically to control with a remote. Thank you.

I've tried numerous apk files developed in part for multiple devices and none work.
I did come across a Google Play Music addon for Kodi & even though the zip installed I cannot for the life of me get it to work. The menu displays & I've entered my correct Google Play Music logon credentials but when I access the addon the screen says "Working..." & goes no where.
Anyone have any ideas as to why?

Hello, I have this working for me, First uninstall all these
script.module.mutagen
script.module.gmusicapi
plugin.audio.googlemusic
Then download the new 1.2 version here is the link
https://app.box.com/s/vderjsv84fq59z1lccv0
Install only this, do not install the dependencies , then enter your info, it going to take like 5 minutes to load your library, then your good to go.

Yup that did it. Thanks so much. Now I just need to tweak the way the tags are read on album views (I was able to do it for track views).

Hello, That I don't know, sorry.
I use YouTube adaway xposed mod on my phone & tablet and it works great. Its not working on AFTV. Anyone know why? Do I need to side load a different YouTube apk? I'd like it to work with the supported YouTube for amazon but will use the one in play store. Maybe its because amazon uses an older version?
Any help is welcomed. I hate these ads. They start before every video I watch now!
Install the YouTube mod from this very forum,it is older than the main YouTube app,but easier to block ads from,and it doesn't even require Google Play stuff.

If you use WiFi,there is a useful ad blocker I use that works admittedly better (AND without even requiring root) since other ad blockers started failing on me.

I can't install the mod. Tried adb and just placing on sdcard. Are you using an older firmware? I'm on the latest. Not that that's the issue but I read the thread you linked and it seems simple.
I am still on the older firmware.
The normal YouTube app has to be uninstalled before you install the mod version.
Having a web browser,terminal emulator for ADB via localhost,and a file explorer for learning the directory and filename of APKs you want to install is really useful for non-rooted users.

I uninstalled YouTube before attempting it. I'm not home now but used my phone to download it yesterday and I see the apk is 12.72 KB...that can't be right, is it? Maybe my issue was as simple as a bad or incomplete download. I'll try again later.
One thing I hate about various transfer protocols is that they can VERY often corrupt files upon transfer.
Things are much easier if you can directly download the file in a browser on the FireTV and use the really helpful terminal emulator method for installing/sideloading it.
The latest Opera Browser version has a desktop quality download UI,allowing you to pick the name of a file to be saved,and the directory to save it in.
Such a shame other things in Opera browser are a little broken,like the save password dialog causing a crash unless clicked away from.

I do appreciate the followup but when you say transfer, are you talking about the actual download? Or pushing it to my AFTV sdcard? Because I don't see the difference between downloading it to my phone's browser, my Mac, PC or opening opera on AFTV.
I just wanted to clarify. I can certainly download it with AFTV but its weird that every link yields an incomplete apk. And, I believe this mod was made for phones and tablets so you'd think it'd work the same or better with my phone.
Try getting the inverted copy.
The download page says this one is 6.15MB ,so you should expect a size near that.
I do hope you can sort this out,and I wish you luck.

Is there a remote optimized version for youtube other than the amazon with adds version?
You can filtering the YouTube ads via Xposed YouTube AdAway (http://repo.xposed.info/module/ma.wanam.youtubeadaway)

But that doesnt seem to work with aftv youtube. Im going to sideload the play store version. It should work like it does on my phone. What I dont know is how a remote will work with it.
Update,-well that didnt take long. It wont launch. What version of youtube are people using for ad blocking?
The Google Play YouTube is completely useless on FireTV because of the forever re-updating Google Play Services beyond 7.0.99 whch breaks everything that relies on it,primarily Google Play itself and the YouTube app.
This is why I use the YouTube Mod since it doesn't rely on Google Play Services.
Someone should really upload a patched Google Play Services 7.0.99 copy so we can avoid the function breaking updates.
All it needs is a patch to either disable the updater within it or make it think it is version 9.9 or higher from the year 2029 to stop the updates.

If you are rooted, there is an XPosed module that eliminates the need for Google Play Services. http://repo.xposed.info/module/xeed.xposed.dngmod
my experience
same for me:
the adblock apk does not work with the fire tv app.
the youtube app from #1 works, but cant get controlled with the app
maybe someone ist able to modify the app the it can get controled by remote without touchscreen
Hi All
I just re-found a compatibility list by androidtv.news (thanks guys)
great work, please contribute your findings, and be careful when you edit (there seems to be a few rows with no name, unfortunately by an edit)
I'll ask the mods to sticky it..

as long as the sideloaded apps have the original signature untouched, they have always updated.
Edit: Nevermind. The problem was me. User error.
I tried to install Amazon Video but received errors. Anyone else have the same experience? Thanks.
for some reason realMyst only works on my 2015 not my 2017
I like OpenArena, but it is essentially single player only. No multiplayer servers are around.
Anyone want to compile this for Android?

Anyone have an updated link to the compatibility list? Link in the OP no longer works.
Netflix TV Os
Hi,
I'm struggling on the internet for information I'm after and you might be able to help! I want to get a media player with the official Android TV OS (the same one as the Shield - not the other normal media boxes). Simply put - in SA we have unstable internet connections. For Netflix on Android TV OS, does it allow for offline downloading? People have suggested popcorn time but I want to support creators and anyway, Netflix is good enough. So, can anyone tell me whether the Netflix App for the official Android TV OS supports offline mode (ie downloaded episodes like you have in normal Netflix on Android).
Thanks Tom

Hi guys
Any chance someone had similar issues, please assist.
This tv is really great and smart, screen is amazing, has guest/professional modes, loads of settings and cloning options, networking access and etc. But...
As a simple and single user now, I want to have play store, or any other way to install some certain apps. (I.e. Netflix, plex, IPTV)
This model has some preinstalled apps (i.e. YouTube news, weather, but no market/play store and settings letting to install from usb.
I can't even tell android version. Seems like GB?!
Where do I start?
Thx
Hi,
Was wondering if there is any help with the above question as I also have the same issue? Thank you for any help/assistance
