Looking for:

All in their android tv forms.

Doesn't have them.

Hello
Have you try Aptoide TV market ?

What I do when I need to put apps on an Android that does not have PlayStore is to install the required apps on another Android device that has PLaystore and use ES File Explorer to back up the apps that I need on the other device. I then copy them to a USB Stick and install on device that does not have Playstore.

The android amazon appstore shouldn't have replaced anything. Just delete the apk.

It worked, thanks.
BTW, is there any working version of regular appstore (generic Android version)?

People have said it works... but it breaks a few things. How did you install it?

Request: latest Netflix apk

For some reason, installation always fails when I try installing it from the Fire TV itself. I'm temporarily using the regular Android version which I sideloaded, but it's not optimized for the Fire TV remote. I had to resort to using a mouse. I was just wondering if someone could pull the APK and post it here. The specific version I'm looking for is 1.1.4 build 145
Thanks in advance!

On the playstore is a app called cm installer(or something around that). Install it and choose Alpollo.(musicplayer)
Enjoy!
Actually it is Eleven. I'm not sure of where you could pick it up though

Apollo is what they originally used. Might like it similar and on playstore or Google search it. Eleven they use now there is flashable zip on XDA. Or you could extract the apk and maybe install that way. Don't think flashing zip on stock would work not sure. Just always do a back up first.

How to watch Amazon prime video without the launcher ?

I deleted the Amazon launcher so I could use fire starter since it's quicker and all my apps are just a few clicks away.
I usually don't watch prime video, but they have a series I would like to watch.
How can I access prime video. I tried installing the prime video apk as an alternative to the launcher but it wouldn't install.
--
Anyone have the launcher apk so I can reinstall it temporarily.
I had the same problem, unfortunately you can't (as long as I know) it's been if you keep the Amazon launcher

Actually on my FTV Stick 2 I have a package called com.amazon.amazonvideo.livingroom.firetv which is accessible via TVLauncher 3 (a 3rd party launcher). It works just like the standard Android TV app.
UPDATE: I tried it with AppStarter and it works fine!

uggh I have that apk, but it won't open.
I cannot reinstall the launcher since it already exists.
Under package manager it shows up as an uninstalled package.
Check out my adb commands
pm install /system/priv-app/com.amazon.tv.launcher/com.amazon.tv.launcher.apk
pkg: /system/priv-app/com.amazon.tv.launcher/com.amazon.tv.launcher.apk

moving onto different approach.
Edit:
Managed to install the tablet version of the amazon videos apk, and it crashed on open
Tablet Version: com.amazon.avod.thirdpartyclient
Original Version: com.amazon.amazonvideo.livingroom.firetv
The original one doesnt even crash ... it just doesn't do anything when opened
@rockon999 do you have anything else installed?
If you never uninstalled your launcher, I can see the launcher as being the dependency.
I seem to be missing some dependancy
Edit:
I got the tablet version on the Amazon Video app open BUT
Error Code: UNKNOWN_DEVICE_TYPE_ID
... can anyone help me bypass this?

I think I found where it the variable is defined
Code:
const-string/jumbo v2, "deviceTypeId"
What
What is the prefix that defines this variable?

My launcher is "uninstalled" for my user. I have Google Play Services installed but I don't set how that would affect it. Be careful. There are two prime video apks/applications on the Fire TV Stick 2. One is for the launching of videos from the launcher and one is for actual standalone viewing. Look in your chosen launcher for both and try both. I think the incorrect one only says "Video" w/ the correct icon.

Hello, the same happens in mine, maybe the .apk are not well recognized on TV, but for example TuneIn_Radio appears normally in menu as does Roku or TCL.
