Hi i have a problem with mame4droid on my fire tv stick, i installed with adb sideloading and i have adb pushed my rom to /sdcard/ROMs/MAME4all/roms. (i am using default mame path). then when i go back to mame4droid and restart the app it says no available roms found. i have tried changing rom directories and i have had no luck...

Are you typing the full path, where XBMC is located? I normally just drag and drop the file in to the terminal after adb install. For example adb install '/home/fatfarley/Downloads/xbmc-13.1-Gotham-armeabi-v7a.apk'
Amazon FireTV Side App Installer
Try using the Amazon FireTV Side App Installer (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2736774) as it gives everything you need to install XBMC and all the goodies.
EDIT: Be sure to place your version of XBMC apk in the XBMC folder within FTV.
1) Turn on USB Debugging in settings, check the IP of the device as well
2) Install ADB on your PC
3) Go on to CMD and enter the path that leads to ADB (usually in *\android\sdk\program-tools)
4) Enter "ADB connect <insert IP of your fire tv>
5) after it connects, enter "ADB install xbmc.apk
6) then afterwards go back to settings > applications and bam its there
hello
i am having a hard time installing xbmc on my fire tv stick
i can get my amazon fire tv stick it to connect using adbfire but i have to use a different ip address that is showing on the about screen on my amazon fire tv stick so instead of 192.168.1.11 (which is the ipaddress on my fire tv stick) i used 192.168.1.1 and it connects. then when i try to install xbmc apk from desktop via abdfire the green status bar just loads and loads and loads. i left it going all night last night and i still did not get a successful this morning.
when i enter this different ip address in the command prompt (via adt bundle- sdk- platform tools) it will connect but then when i type check devices it says offline so i cant install the xbmc apk
ive also tried installing spmc and cannot get it to show up on my amazon fire tv stick even after syncing and looking for it on the cloud
Are you using Windows? Try right clicking on adbfire and running as an administrator.

maybe i downloaded adbfire wrong? i dont think so though.
I downloaded - unzipped it- then clicked on the adbfire icon and it opened up the app then i try inputting ipaddress of the amazon fire tv stick and it keeps saying device not connected..
i also have adb debug mode turned on
idk

AFAICT, the problem isn't related to adbFire. The OP can't ping the FireTV Stick's IP address. Hopefully, more eyeballs here can help get his network problem fixed. I can't be positive, but I think 192.168.1.1 may be his router.
I'd try removing adbFire from the equation. Open a command-line and CD to the adbFire folder. Then try running adb.exe from the command-line. Try:
Code:
adb connect 192.168.1.11:5555
just like you tried:
Code:
ping 192.168.1.11
Try manually assigning the fire tv stick an ip address with your router that way you always know what its ip address is. 192.168.1.1 is definitely not it
fire tv
ok i took fire tv to friends house last night and got it to connect on her router via command . I was then able to install xbmc via command on fire tv stick.
so it must be something with my router?
i tried connecting via command when i got back to my house and could not connect.
I also tried inputting adb connect 192.168.1.11:5555 but no luck.
192.168.1.11 is the ip address shown on the fire tv stick
how do you manually assign the fire tv stick an ip address?
also how do you install apps like 1 channel and icefilms on to the fire tv stick once xbmc is installed.
i may try getting a new router
thanks
adbfire
also i could not get the fire tv stick to connect to adbfire even at my friends house.

Make sure that you disable your firewall on both your PC and your router.

Hi guys,
it is possible to play fifa on fire tv? i already tried do sideload the app from my smartphone and also from my computer. trying to install it with mobile1 market on fire tv didn't work either.
I was able to install Fifa 16 on my 1st Gen Fire TV. You have to install the XAPK file though, not the APK. The way I did it was to go sideload the apkpure app onto my Fire TV, then install Fifa 16 from there. It's working really well.
Apparently support for the DisneyLife app is coming to the Stick but is currently only available on Android TV and the Fire TV.
Has anyone got the TV apk I can try sideloading or has anyone tried it already on the stick?
Have successfully tried the normal android device apk but its touch screen heavy so difficult to navigate!
Thanks!
