Hi,
just got myself first, proper Android device.
My Lumia has been passed on to my spouse and I am trying to get familiar with the system and device.
As you can imagine, after using iPad and recently Lumia I do feel a bit lost and overwhelemd by the amount of options, menus and submenus
As right now I am trying to dig through tons of posts, pages here and on other sites. Not an easy task to get to the essential information.
Perhaps you can help me be hinting some shortcuts or giving straight through answers?
My S3 is not branded and unlocked but not rooted, runnind Android 4.1.1
1. How do I get Flash working in Chrome?
2. How do I get Market Enabler app on it?
All my tries and downloads has not been succesful so far

Also, on my iPad I was using an awesome video player - Buzz Player.
It plays mkv (iPad can't do it smootlhy but that is different story), divix, avi... anything really.
What is mor eimportnat it was able to stream those videos from my NAS drive - old WD My Book World via smb (samba).
I tried Buzz for Android but it is truly terrible . Nothing like app on iOS + very expensive to buy.
Would you have anyy suggestion - what I should try? (BTW: option for Windows Store - "try" before "buy" is really helpfull - would love to see it on Google Play!).
And what is the best (free) barcode scanner as there is no Bing in S3.. ?

I really have no idea for streaming my s3 plays mkv movies from stock..but you could try "vlc direct pro free" i think you will be ok!

As far as I'm aware chrome doesn't support flash anyway, try dolphin browser hd. Market enabler does require root access. As for the video player try MX Player from the play store it plays pretty much everything, possibly the best video player for android.
Hope I could help

Hy im a newby here and also in android, comming from iOs too....
my phone is rooted and i managed to install the so wanted flash player from Adobe v11(not sure the version, its been a long time)
it works great in my Galaxy S3 ... i open internet sites and videos using Opera (or Chrome which i like a lot but havent tested it yet)
look for your version of system/phone in Adobe site and you will find the right flash player, just download the file and follow the instrutcions on the site.
Hello all,
So with some trial and error, I was able to get my hands on the apks for the Fire TV Versions of HBO Go, Showtime Anytime and WatchESPN. These are all apps we desperately need on our Android Tvs.
The biggest problem right now is that when you sideload these onto your device, they bring up one of three errors.
If you don't have the Amazon Appstore or Amazon Underground installed at all, it will prompt you to install it, then force quit itself.
If you have the Amazon Appstore or Amazon Underground installed, but you are not logged in, the error will prompt you to login and will take you straight to the login page.
If you have the Amazon Appstore or the Amazon Underground, and you are logged in, the error will claim that you do not own the app in question and either show you details or force-quit you.
Now, it seems to me (a humble peasant compared to many people here) that we're approaching this all wrong. So far, it seems like we've been trying to hoodwink the apps into thinking we're running them on Fire TV devices by modifying our build.prop. I have yet to hear this work. Instead I would propose this: what if we stopped the error message from closing our apps after the prompt? So say, in the first scenario, it prompts me to install the Amazon Appstore, I click ok... and nothing happens, leaving me free to use the app normally.
This Youtuber was able to get the HBO Now (not Go) app for Fire TV working somehow using this method
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2h59156pHE
If a brave soul of the XDA community wants to try this and gift us with modified APKs that will run on our systems, that would be fantastic. I can attach the APKs if you need them
UPDATE
I was able to get this to work! DM me for details (if Amazon finds out how, they will shut down this loophole). I was able to get most apps for Fire TV I could get my hands on to work! The only one that consistently gave me issues was the WatchABC app, everything else works 100% (HBO Go is a little sluggish, but Showtime Anytime is buttery smooth )
I would love to get the watchespn apk!

It's already available in one of the threads, I've had it working for the most part. I think if you had a keyboard and mouse it would be even better.
Android TV needs a WatchESPN app. I'm not going to use a mouse to control my TV. I know it works but it's annoying. I'll just cast until they hopefully release one. The Fire TV WatchESPN app is fantastic.

Hi mate, there's an app on FireTV called TVPlayer for UK Freeview channels, it has a really nice UI on FireTV completely different to the regular Android app, wondering if you'd manage to grab that one?

Playstation Vue would be great, if its possible. Its a great service, just wish it was on the nexus player.
Yeah Playstation Vue... Yes, please!
I don't know if you guys noticed - but watchESPN is now a native androidTV app. Easy install from within nexus player's play store. Seems to work great, live streaming works as well. Finally, I was able to get rid of the sideloaded apk.

Do you know if the HBO Go app works with comcast, Comcast hasn't approved the use of androidTV devices for streaming but they have for FireOS and regular Android, currently I use the regular Android app, but proper TV UI and remote navigation would be good.
UPDATE:
It does indeed appear to be a separate app that activates has a fire tv device so can be activated with comcast, but its pretty laggy, does anyone have the most up to date fire tv version, I'm running 2.7.06
Looks like I spoke too soon, seems like I can't get anything to actually play, just force closes.
I have been trying to make Smart IR Remote and Peel Smart Remote with with the IR Blaster but it seems that the ROM isn't allowing access or the libraries are different.

Anyone else have this issue?

Same here. Using Honor 7/PLK-AL10 (CN model). No single response from Peel towards fairly recent Philips AmbiLight. Previously Peel worked superb, with a Samsung Galaxy S5 mini.
Rooted or not?
What's your region code in build.prop? (product.language, product.region)
The only other app I've got to work that is compatible with the IR driver is ZaZaRemote https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tiqiaa.remote

One way around this is to Edit your "Smart Controller" App. For instance I edited volume buttons to be used for Surround Sound (External speakers). This can be done by either by editing existing buttons on the remote or by using 'Expand' button. So you can practically add any remote function by key learning method available on "Smart Controller' App. Please feel free if any further help is needed regarding this feature.
Someone can post the original apk for the honor 7?i delete by accident
Peel Remote
Hi,
The Smart Controller works fine alright, it is Peel TV remote that does not work or get configured. Since my Set top box was not listed in the list, I had to manually edit the Smart Controller anyway for it to work
EDIT- Rather the Smart Controller doesn't work completely fine. Every button works fine except the channel selection buttons (0 to 9). If I press say 3, it takes 33 as the input. So I want to key in channel 100, it will invariably got to 110 (double of the first press, double of the second press double of the third press, 110000, but since the TV recognizes 3 characters, it will stop at 110).

No not the xfinity tv go app....the xfinity tv app that if you are on the same WiFi as your cable box you can basically use the app as a virtual cable box in another room. I am able to load the app up, it buffers then goes right back to the android home screen, any one have any luck or similar situation with this app?

I thought more xfinity Comcast users would be interested in this app as you would have access to your cable box/DVR, watch every channel you subscribe to without affecting anyone else watching cable on your physical cable box

I sideloaded the latest version of the Xfinity TV app version 3.1.0.014
The app does not support proper navigation with android tv remote as it is intended to be used on a touch interface.
You can however connect a mouse via USB OTG and use the app. I have watched around an hour of TV on the app and did not have any major issues.
It is a little buggy at times exiting and re-entering the app and I have had a force close but it is usable.
Once they update for Android TV support I will be very happy. (I am hoping they update for Android TV support. I haven't found any information to say they are for sure.)

Comcast released another app update today. Hopefully it didn't break things for you, let me know how it goes, I am thinking about getting a Nexus Player for this app. I doubt they will ever support Android TV, they would be losing $10 per month from folks who are currently renting their own comcast boxes for additional TVs.

I just uninstalled the previous version and installed the new version 3.1.1.019
I am not noticing any changes and it still seems to be working fine.
I have a keyboard/mouse combo connected to the Nexus Player that I use to navigate in the app which is a little clunky but does work.
I am watching some On Demand on it right now with no issues.

has anyone figured out why the Xfinity TV app closes or how to fix this I have the newest version installed on my nexus player and on my nvidia shield and on both devices the app closes after about 10 minutes of watching a live or on demand show and goes back to the Home screen? On my fire stick the app doesn't close but I get other playback error on live channels. The TV to Go app works 100% on my correctly it never closes but it lacks a channel guide and DVR abilities so I would rather use the X1 TV app instead. any suggestions on how to get the app to stop closing back to the home screen?
as a side note for those trying to find a controller solution, I use a QQ-Tech Mini Bluetooth Keyboard W Touch pad for Android OS Windows from Amazon for about 20 bucks. I use this for all 3 of my boxes to control the Xfinity TV and TV to Go apps it works grate its about 7 inches long so about the size of a TV remote. mine is rechargeable with a light up keyboard. this will also make using Chrome and other sideloaded apps on Android TV so much easier to use.

Understood, i refuse to get X1 because right now i pay 80 Bucks for 150 Channels + HBO and 75Megabit Internet. I don't need a DVR made by them, nor do i need anything else they deem fancy. I wouldn't have Comcast at all if i could have the option, but they are the fastest within 100 feet of my location. Lot of OTA DVR Options Exist, some are like 10-15 Years Old. (The PSX Console was a PS2 with built in DVR if that says anything). i Have a hacked Roamio i use to record stuff.

The Xfinity TV app (not TV Go) works, but sometimes looses track of the "Home" network.
We are using a friend's login info to test it- Our 2 NP's both have M 6.0.
It will not work out of the box hardwired for channels you have not viewed before- i.e on your "previously viewed channels" list, prompts you to use your cellular data connection, but has an "allow just this time" link that will let it through a LAN.
Seems the TV (not TV Go) app keeps track of the WiFi connections and designates one a "Home".
I have renamed my 2 access points the same name, with same SSID and passwords- it worked great for a day, then started locking me out of new channels.
ES FileExplorer lets you ftp into the NP with the LAN---> Remote Manager, so I will be copying the X-TV data over and see if that works.
As a side note- I will be testing the TV Go app found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63688527&postcount=39
I found this Rii that works quite well for the NP in general, and the trackpad seems very good to me, especially double-tap, hold and swipe.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B9996LA/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=
I wanted a 2.4 ghz romo, because I read many comments about BT sleeping issues.
The rest of my setup has this hub-
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OCBXIY8/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=
and this UBS to RJ-45 adapter.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JWXTOIA/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=
All work with the NP
**Edit**
Sytanek's app mod at the link above works excellent on our stock NP with M 6.0.1
Can anyone confirm the apps still work on our NPs as of today?
I am moving and the place I am heading to doesn't have other options but Comcast... this would be great in cutting some of those "rental fees" on additional cable boxes.
I can't get Xfinity TV to work on my Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 with cyan 13.0....just buffers then returns
I need little help here. I installed the app and when i click get started it redirects to dolphin browser and when i log in i get some error message. I can't get this app working.
There is a BBC iPlayer Android TV app available for the Nvidia Shield TV, but I have not been able to locate native versions of the following:
All4, ITVHub, Demand 5, RTÉ Player, 3Player, and TG4.
Versions of these apps for *regular* Android exist, and they can be sideloaded, but using a mouse or game controller stick to navigate these does not appeal.
- Do versions of these apps exist that would work properly on the shield, perhaps sideloading Sony Android versions, if that is even possible?
- Is there a complete list of Android TV apps available for all regions somewhere? Browsing to the Google Play Store link for same does not provide this.
- Anyway to check if native versions of these apps are in development, or to request them?
*Just to add, Kodi is one of the main reasons I use the Shield, there is a well working ITV addon for it, two BBC iPlayer addons, and a half working Irish TV addon. Unfortunately, even the ones that work properly cannot compare to the experience provided by the GUI of a full featured regular Android or Smart TV app.
These apps are available for the Android Amazon Fire TV, but until someone is kind enough to extract these apps and share I think we're stuck without them
Perhaps contacting nVidia to see what they can do?

I have never owned a Fire, but I have just read Fire OS is based on Android, and it is possible to sideload apks onto the fire. Would the Fire apps actually work on Android TV, and do you know if it is possible to extract them in the first place?
I will see if I can find the best way to contact Nvidia on this, be via email or their forums. In the meantime I have emailed the developers of the existing regular Android apps, asking if they could consider developing a native version for Android TV. If anyone wants to email expressing their interest in same it may help, here are the email addresses:
[email protected]

You could perhaps send them something similar to:
Hi
Could you please consider developing a version of the <insert app name> app native to Android TV? There seems to be a native app for every other platform, but the regular Android version of the app does not work on Android TV, which runs on for instance the Nvidia Shield TV, because it is aimed at touchscreen devices, rather than allowing the user navigate using a remote control.
Thanks
It seems this is possible, and I have requested this here:
Extract Fire TV APKs?
That said, someone else made a similar request and there is no indication on the thread this was fulfilled.
Perhaps an owner of a Fire TV would be willing to help us? Instructions on how to do this are in the linked thread!
I live in Scotland, and the STV Player app works fine on the nVidia Shield. But I'd also like these apps.
My5 works, too. however the app thinks it is a phone and it won't rotate out of vertical mode.
You'd think these companies would make a better effort at pushing apps for use on native Android TV.
Apps from
Amazon Fire TV
Sony Android TV's
will work on the nVidia shield for sure, but no one is able to provide them
If you look on the forum of the thread I linked to, other Amazon Fire apk requests have been fulfilled. I would be surprised if no one will help us out.
I really should have made a new thread there requesting these but it seems on XDA I cannot delete my post, and I do not want to cross post.
I have asked the mods to remove my post on the old thread, and created a new thread requesting these apks from an Amazon Fire TV owner. Voicing your interest in that new thread may help encourage someone to help us!

Have you tried using rotate this? It forces phone apps to be displayed as landscape.
So are you saying if there's a version that works with the amazon fire tv that it'll work for nvidia shield too?
I've tried to sideload the apks from my mobile devices before but with no joy.
We now have virgin tv and this doesn't support the full all4 and itv apps, only the past 7 days. Our TV also isn't supported so it would be really good to able to use these apps with the shield.
Would someone be so kind and upload the new Nvidia Shield ITV Hub App.
Inhave all the uk catch up on my shield using vpn from Ireland but the one I cannot get is all4 or 4player.Cant get it ti work even on the mobile app.

Nvideas own shield webpages say its available on the play store, and so it got me wondering if there's now a version optimised for use with remotes but not in the android TV play store for my device ?
I've tried extracting from my fire TV, but they won't install on other devices because they are linked to fire os,/app store
Thanks
OK so after nearly 4 years "my5" has had an update today that now makes it unusable on shield - so my5 is out of the equation
And my5 is back lol, well I downloaded the my5 apk from fire TV and Installed on shield, purchased my5 on amazon website through the browser on my gf's s5, then installed appstore and logged in on shield. After this my5 opens and works perfect, is actually way better than side loaded version by far - just need all4 to be remote friendly and I'm set. All I can seem to find are apk wrappers for all4 fire TV apk
Can someone please upload the latest My5 apk version 3.0.0.88.
