Hi,
I am desperatly looking for the new Discovery + APK for the Fire Stick 4k. I used to use the old version, 1.2 or so, but the app demands an update to function. The experiment with the android TV version was not successful, as the google play services are required. Can anyone with an US Amazon App store help me out here?
At the same time, i am looking for the HULU APK, anyone got the newest one from the Amazon app store?
Thank you very much!
Edit:
Managed to get them myself. I dug up an old stick, made a new amazon account in the US and installed the apps i was looking for.
With my computer, i connected over adb and pulled the apks from it. Works fine for me now.
If anyone is looking for them as well, let me know...
Hello, I desperately need the Discovery+ APK , if you can upload that somewhere I'd be really grateful

Hi, Attached the APK.
There are some initial issues with permissions, but as soon as you managed to log in, they are solved.

Hello
Anyone having trouble installing Netflix on a rooted US AFTV from an Amazon.co.uk account? It downloads just fine but then says "Install failed" without much more info.
I can install the Netflix app from the US store (using the geo restriction guide on aftvnews), but that is the old Netflix v1 client. The one on the UK store looks like the newer v3 client.
Anyone else having this issue? All other apps downloaded from the UK store work fine. Could just be launch day teething problems (I hope) and not some sort of restriction with the app.
I have the latest rooted 51.1.3.0_user_513011820 firmware by the way.
Cheers
exactly the same for myself, all apps install no problem but netflix fails
How annoying.
Stil not working today, so I suspect it's a firmware restriction so hopefully the US boxes will get the new firmware soon.
Can I confirm from anyone who has Netflix (with the white icon) from the UK store working if it's actually the new client or the old one? Screenshots show the new client, but the version number in the description says v1.0.1 which is the same as the US app - and it's 1/2 the file size on the UK store.

The very same issue for me.
I noticed in the logs, the following message comes up:
Code:
W/PackageParser( 6797): /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.amazon.venezia/files/apks/65165767-ffeb-4dc8-a422-fa4683554601.apk (at Binary XML file line #27): Requires newer sdk version #19 (current version is #17)
I guess the issue is that the firmware won't update to 51.1.4.0_user_514006420, which by the looks of it is required for the Netflix app.
I've been trying to find a way to install the new firmware manually, but no dice. Can't find a download link for the file and even if I could, I guess I'd have to be rooted (I'm not) to force it.
Ah, that'll be it. That's for pointing it out.
We'll just have to wait I guess for this firmware to roll out to other regions, which most likely it will. In any case, it's still not clear if it's the new client or not so actually there may be no advantage over the US app at this stage.
Any able to successfully install the new Suite of Fire TV BBC Apps Released for UK Residents but on a Canadian or US located device or is there APK I can side load? I tried the steps per ATVNews site but no luck!
Did you ever get this working?

Hey guys just need some help here.
Because of the release date is still due for germany i decided to buy the ZE551 ML online.
I ordered it at tinydeal.com. As it seems i now have an somewhat chinese Version where i cant even add an google account.
Also i have trouble installing Google-Playstore properly because it crashes all the time (as well as other Google apps, tried to figure out why but all online solutions didnt help)
A freind said this might happen because of no Google Account being registered.
What should i do in your opinion?
Best option is probably to flash it for some EU/NA Version right ?
then i should be able to add an google account and set up all the apps properly ?
Thank you for your help!

I accidentally bought the CN version myself
I read somewhere earlier this method should work to add gapps to the CN version. --> http://goo.gl/ea7bCv
Make sure and remove your previous PlayStore install before.
I didnt get mines yet, but if ur willing to try it, see if it helps!
If not then the pre-root img should do the trick --> http://goo.gl/7viYVt
Hello!
I'm trying to uninstall the package(s) that has/have to do with the startup screen where you are asked to select the language and wifi network followed by updates check and I managed to do this by using this guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-tv/general/disable-bloatware-2nd-gen-fire-tv-stick-t3674629
It uninstalled a lot more than I needed and I am trying to follow it step by step, package by package.
The ideea is, though, to get an index of the amazon packages so to see exactly what I am uninstalling and what not, since some of these are not really self-explanatory.
I found this index https://developer.android.com/reference/packages but it seems to lack all amazon apps.
So is there any way to find and index or at least to understant what each of these packages do?
Thank you! :fingers-crossed:

This list is not exactly related to Fire TV but to Fire OS as a whole. However, the most important Fire TV packages are included. It's a start to read something into it.

Looks good. I'll get back to working on it after 16th of this month and I'll come back and let you know if it helped. Hope all this work could help me to make a tutorial for what I am doing now, I think it would be helpful for other people. Thanks for your help!

If you can't find any information about some special packages, I can try to answer that. Just send me a list with the packages you didn't find out about (max. 10).

Thank you so much! I have managed to find a post on github with what looks like the packages organised in categories, but I cant find the link anymore. Will update this answer if I find it.

Hello everyone,
I have bought a tv called AKAI aktv4650j which has a custom android 9 firmware. While i was trying to change home screen, i eventually had to restore the original firmware. Unfortunately, i discovered that the original firmware does not have google play store or google play services. I have tried to sideload them, but the app is not shown in the dashboard, and if i try to launch it from settings, it works but doesn't let me sign in with google.
I eventually found another firmware for a different tv that has the same motherboard (Mediatek M7332_EU) and i flashed it on my tv. Its home screen is much nicer, it has miracast and apple play, an app to use the phone as a remote controller, and it has google play services and google play store. The only problems are that there is not the italian language and the original remote does not work.
So i was wondering if anyone could explain how to extract the italian language and remote control config from the first firmware and insert them in the second one.
This is my original firmware:
Original Firmware Folder
and this is the Turkish firmware i found:
https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/1TNq91duEnXrfUpzjH0DMr9Ln_XQwkUiH
Also, i would like to extract the original boot logo (AKAI) and root the firmware, if it is possible.
thank you in advance!

What's your exact tv model?
Its model is 50p8s, but its hardware and software are different from the original tcl TVs, in fact, it is only available in Iran under tcl license.
