I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to block amazon forcing you to update to latest netflix after upgrading the firmware?
Thanks to rbox I have all the necessary components to keep the file structure/firmware of 51.1.0.2 and be on latest 51.1.4.1, of course new netflix does not work on that, I removed and sideloaded an extracted netflix apk from older firmware for the FTV but amazon has something forcing you to update, it pulls up a message saying required update. Any way around this? I think the state i have my FTV in if I could launch the old netflix it would work, but I can't launch it without the amazon nag.
The reason I need to keep the old netflix is for some reason my FTV's do not play well with the new version at all, many errors/skips/fails to launch/logs me out etc. I tried latest 51.1.4.1 and still same issue. It's odd too cause I bought a new FTV from staples and rooted it and upgraded it before doing anything to 51.1.4.1 with new netflix and it works way better on that unit than any of my other ones. not sure why
Also, the new netflix will not put my FTV to sleep mode automatically after timing out. The old one would allow it to go to sleep mode while new netflix logs out of the user profile but leaves the app open and it sat overnight on netflix, This doesnt work very well for me. Any help/insight is appreciated!

It's two separate apps, so if you leave the new one installed, the old one will still work. Unfortunately it won't show up in the main apps list and you'll have to open it like other sideloaded apps.

Just tried that, it does show up as a seperate as you said, the problem is when I launch it, I get an amazon popup that says "Launch newer Netflix Instead. you have installed a newer version of Netflix. This old version is no longer supported. Please uninstall and launch the new version instead. And two options, uninstall now or uninstall later"
Also looking at manage all apps list now it only shows the old netflix, I think it overwrote the newer version or something.

That's odd. Originally, before I fixed Netflix... I let it update to the new Netflix, I used it and it didn't work, and then I did 'adb install' to install the old one, and went to the apps list and it "just worked". It could be that they've since updated something to prevent that from working... Why not just flash 51.1.3.0?

My other FTV's are on 51.1.3.0 for that reason, I had just flahsed this one with latest 51.1.4.1 in hopes new netflix would work any better than it did on 51.1.4.0, but it seems not much changed (for me). I wanted to keep the new firmware for some of the features, remote on phone, sleep button, prime music and whatever bug fixes etc they've done in the background, also moving forward I don't want to be forever stuck on 51.1.3.0. But it'll have to do for now I guess.
@rbox do you still happen to have the APK you adb installed that showed up seperately? I wonder if it's just my .apk I have

It's the same one you have, it hasn't been chagned in forever. Just pull it off one of your other boxes.
Ok, yep same place I got the one I have. I just re-pulled it and the /data/data folder just to see, same thing.
Thanks for the help/input rbox
I hope this is the right thread for this -
I just updated to the pre-rooted 51.1.4.1_514013920 firmware. The new netflix app won't play anything. I tried uninstalling it, deleting it from the cloud, rebooting, and reinstalling. Still nothing.
Any ideas? I was fine with the old app if someone could point me to the APK. I unforunately don't have any other devices with the old APK.
I appreciate any help.

Nevermind. I ended up wiping and installing 51.1.4.0 because I don't think I ever did that. Then I reinstalled the boot menu and flashed .1 and everything is working.
I'll leave this here just in case anyone else makes the same bonehead mistake. Thanks for the hard work rbox, appreciate the rooted firmware releases.
Hi, i have a Chinese Galaxy Note 8.0 (Android version: 4.1.2), and because of that, I have problems obtaining apps. I am using aptoide, but not being a savvy user, it's a bandaid at best (much better than the samsung store, anyway).
So i decided to install it. Coming from here:
http://www.androidpit.com/forum/589877/how-to-install-google-play-store-if-it-is-not-pre-installed
I arrived at this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2547054
The rooting part went very easy, and now my tablet is rooted. But when it comes to installing the Google Play, i just can't. I did it in both manners: first copying all the apks to the system/app folder and restart, but after that following the order provided in the kindle thread.
I experience some problems i've read also in other kindle threads: several apps stop working (for some reason, Viber, which i downloaded from aptoide), Google Services Framework stops working too, and as soon as i run the google play store, i get the "no net" error. I've done it also previously uninstalling all the google-related apps like maps and chrome. Still nothing.
Anyone can shed some light into what's happening? Thanks.
Amazon Fire Phone with Fire OS are neat and even more awesome with Google Play so you can install your favorite apps & games.

turn off 2 part verification
I had to turn off 2 part verification to be able to login to google play. I have new unlocked 32 gb fire phone running fireos 3.6.8. Once i turned off 2 part verification, login , and turned 2 part verification back on all seem well. Thanks to original poster.

Thanks for this. One step can be simplified by using ES File Explorer instead of Silk to actually download the 4 apk's - then they are in ES File Explorer in proper form already. Then just install them in the order shown, and Bob's your uncle.
I am using 3.6.6 and i cannot get it working. It allways tells me, "google play service closed" and i am not able to log into google playstore.
same happened to me so I just restarted and worked fine.
you do have to install in the correct order as in the video
I did that several times in exact that order but it is still not working. google play service is closed on reboot of the phone...
i also tried to install step by step and reboot after each apk, same problem.
Fire OS 3.6.6, locked to t-mobile, no root
if i install them in a row and open play store it says Gooogle-Service-Framework closed while trying to register my phone / log into my google account
this message is displayed 2 times, then i can put my account data an try to login, then "Process com.google.process.gapps was closed" 2 times
and then google playstore shows "no connection - try again" and this is where is gets stuck
reboot the phone: "Google Play-Service was closed"

Interesting, this was the same issue I have several weeks before - this was one reason I make my guide 'look and feel like...' Only with root
Must be an issue with the older firmwares...
The versions of Play services and Play store listed here are much newer than the ones (that I loaded successfully,) that are referenced on the original posts on this subject. You might want to try using the older versions and let them update.
Coming from 3.6.6 I could not get it run. After downgrading to 3.5 it didn't work as well. However, moving alls GApps to system apps, it finally worked!
From that experience, I am pretty sure that GApps without root may probably work on 3.6.8 phones, but not on the netlock 3.6.6 phones.

I would really like to do this, but 3.6.8 is not available for download. It is the firmware delivered with unlocked phones in the US only
Worked for two unlocked on 3.6.8. Thanks OP!
Apps from the play store seem to be working fine, but we'll see if I run into any issues. Seems too easy..
Well, you've done it. With this technique, the unlocked (that's the only one I tested this on and can verify it works flawlessly) Amazon fire phone is now the best deal in smartphones. Being able to run Google play services completely overcomes all the complaints everybody had with the fire phone, and at $230 with a 13 MP camera it's a fantastic deal, especially now that you can go download a better HD camera app from the play store. I would recommend doing this while you can, because no way in hell are Amazon / Google executives going to let this slide for too long.
Btw, follow the instructions exactly, then restart the phone for everything to work.
My phone got the 3.6.6 firmware. After I install the Google Apps, it will not connect to the store.
I do all the things in the first post, but it will not connect. Any solution for my problem?
Hi. Same problem here. We need 3.5.0 or 3.6.8 to install the Play Store correctly. Does anyone know a release date of an update?!
Thanks for the guide. I was able to successfully install the play store on an unlocked 3.6.8 fire phone and now I can download apps off it. Unfortunately, I can't find a launcher that will change the black background into something else. Do you know of one that does?

Vire Launcher sorta works
I was able to use this method to install the Play Store on my Fire phone running OS 3.6.8. I installed Google Now launcher, but have noticed that the battery drains much more quickly whenever I have other launchers installed. For one thing, even if you switch to another launcher, the Quick Switch menu (double-press on the home key) brings up the Fire Home Launcher as part of switching between apps and it seems like you have 2 launchers running at once which may explain the drain in part. Has anyone else noticed this?
You can use your own photos as wallpapers in Buzz Launcher, but no widgets. Only one I've found to date.

I also have a rooted LG V20 and I'm encountering the same Netflix issue as you. Seems as though Play Store is detecting root and not allowing Netflix to be installed.

I'm running a Google Store Pixel XL, unlocked, rooted, stock on May 2017 security update (thanks to using Chainfire's VerifiedBootSigner.zip). I just checked on Google Play and it says that Netflix is incompatible with my Google Pixel XL. I do, however, already have Netflix installed on my phone and it appears to launch and run just fine.
(I'm at work and haven't tested the actual playing of content.) But, I suspect that I won't receive any updates to the Netflix app based on my phone being tagged as incompatible. I do not know if this is a new condition or brought about by the May 2017 update. I did not check this on April or earlier updates. Although, upon initial release, I was obviously able to install Netflix on this phone.

If you already have Netflix installed on your phone, how are you seeing that it's incompatible on the Play Store? I have Netflix installed on my phone, just checked it on the Play Store, and it says, "Your device already has this item installed".

When using the Google Play app on my Pixel XL, I am unable to even find the Netflix app. It is not showing on my list of installed apps nor can I successfully search for it and find it within the Google Play App. However, I have the actual Netflix app installed on my phone (despite what Google Play app indicates) and I can launch it and actually play content.
If I access Google Play via the web from my Windows device, that is where I can find Netflix and see the indication that it is not compatible with my Pixel XL. (even though it is actually installed)
Thanks,

Thats basically exactly what I'm experiencing. It doesn't show up even when I search on play store. I downloaded Netflix from APK mirror and its fine. Play store still doesn't recognize it.
Wow true. Wouldn't have noticed. Lucky it's already installed
I noticed this last night when restoring, at this moment I am purely stock and using google search to find the play store link returns "Item not found" in the play store.
Stock os, unlocked bootloader, not rooted, Verizon pixel XL
I have a Verizon pixel XL with unlocked bootloader, not rooted, and just did may ota. Netflix app was previously installed on the phone and working fine. After update the app would open but not connect. Not even showing as installed on my phone in play store or if I searched for the app in play store. Uninstalled, downloaded from APK mirror and it works just fine.
Looks like Netflix is blocking rooted or unblocked devices!

Netflix working fine here but I did have it previously installed. Vzw Pixel, stock, rooted, and May bootloader.
you can log into netflix and watch no issue, but you are no longer able to download from play store if your device has the bootloader unlocked OR you are rooted.

you can use the application with no issue, you will no longer receive updates through the play store for this app tho. You can even download the .apk directly from netflix, you just wont be able to see it when searching the play store from your rooted device(assuming it's supersu and not magisk, magisk still works)
It looks to me like apps are starting to look for root permissions and if they find you are rooted, they won't work. So far I have seen SnapChat, DirecTV Now, and now Netflix. (See a trend here?) I think this is going to start becoming the trend of things in the future.
You guys can also just use APK mirror to find it or any other APK that doesn't show up for you or is "incompatible" for your device. Mods or warez type files. All signed apks sorted by version
@pcriz - The Directv now app still requests root access from apk mirror and if you install snapchat before rooting, it will work afterwards. I started looking into root access on a per app basis, because I really only use 2 or 3 apps that need root, instead of overall root and denying access, but I haven't gotten anywhere with it. Of course there is also Chainfire's project to hide root, but I haven't had a lot of success with that so far either. At least the last time I tried it on my HTC10.

Hi! I have an non-rooted first generation Fire TV, and a 3 weeks ago when I started it up, I painfully discovered that pretty much everything other than the main Amazon app were simply GONE. I haven't the faintest clue as to why this happened, but after several attempts to recover the missing apps, etc, I finally resorted to a factory reset. I then re-installed all my previous apps, but only one of them failed every time I ran it: Netflix for AFTV!
Netflix invariably now immediately reports the "UI-800-3" error and it never stops. I followed all the instructions about how to resolve this problem, but it never works. One possibly critical issue is that, after uninstalling Netflix, when I use the main Amazon interface to attempt to re-download it -- or ANY other app! -- any click on any app to download it is totally ignored! No click sound, no response whatsoever!
So I used the "Apk Extractor" app on the Netflix app on my Second Generation Fire TV, and then installed it on the first AFTV using ADBLink, which completed without error. From then on the "UI-800-3" error nightmare began.
So what I need is a Netflix for AFTV apk that's compatible with First Gen Fire TVs running FireOS v5.2.1.1 -- Does anyone have such?
I've seen recommendations to use the APK for Netflix for Android TV, but that hasn't worked out for me.
Kindly help me. Thanks!
I've tried using ADBLink to install the following Netflix apks: Netflix_3.3.5.apk and Netflix_4.0.5.apk
The latter reports that it is incompatible with first generation Fire TVs, so I uninstalled it.
The former tries to run, but again gets infinite "UI-800-3" errors.
So I removed all the DNS blocks that were preventing Amazon updates, and went ahead (very reluctantly) and upgraded to the latest system, v5.4.2 (if I'm recalling it correctly). But Netflix still refuses to run without eternal "UI-800-3" errors!
Furthermore, when I manually navigate around the main Fire TV app looking to download Netflix, it's nowhere to be found! Every other app shows up and allows downloading EXCEPT Netflix!
What the hell is going on?

Happened a while back. Netflix is only allowing the most recent version of their app to access their service. And those more recent versions only run on FIreOS 5. So you need to look thru this forum to the numerous ways to upgrade your FTV1 to FireOS 5. It's that simple.
I performed yet ANOTHER full reset and ANOTHER system update until no further updates were available, and finally, Netflix appeared and installed fine. Happily, it works fine!
I haven't submitted enough posts yet that I'm allowed to post external links, but I will be posting the working Netflix apk in another thread, here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-tv/help/netflix-apk-compatible-aftv-gen-1-please-t3628174
I updated to the latest prerooted rom by rbox (jan 8 2018) on fire tv 1 and now can't find Netflix.
I had it before upgrading I was way back at os3, 51.1.1.0 or something and saw it under settings all apps, cleared it's cache and data, then uninstalled. Now when I search for netflix it doesn't find anything. Tried resyncing my purchased stuff under my account and still don't see it. Should I try and reflash the rom now that I've removed my old netflix apk?
