Hi,
I'm in the UK and looking for the CBS News APK for android TV (nexus player). I tried CBS News 3.1 from aptoide but it doesn't work, would it be possible for someone to post the Android TV apk.
Thanks

here is the news and the sports
here is the update from the other day
Thanks for posting
Although doesn't quite do what I was looking for. The phone/tablet version of the 'CBS News' app streams the news channel live, whilst the Android TV version purports to it doesn't actually seem to offer that functionality Perhaps it will come in a later version.
thanks again

Edited Sorry for this post.
Has anyone been looking or be successful in rooting Google TV to Android TV? I have the 1st generation GTV and was not updated to Android by Google. Was looking to see if any developers thought about it or if there is anything out there that I can use. Thank you.
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!
[APK Request] All4, ITVHub, My5, RTÉ Player, 3Player, and TG4

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.
Is there a shield apk for all4 in 2018 ?
Just so you know all4 detects rooted devices even with magiskhide

Same request, could someone post or pm that APK from the shield, I want to see if it works on my Philips android TV ?
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.

Hello guys, I've created before very standard android apps with streaming links to lets say a football channels or golf, what I want to know is there software or a guide in creating an app with the casting option so i could cast to my chromecast? i know its not so easy but I'd like some info to get me started if anyone can provide it, I've got Android Studio installed and I'm assuming that's a start.
All I want to create is a bog standard app that once you click on a stream there is an option to cast over to the chromecast, I know I can screencast already but was looking to try something different. Any info or help would be greatly appreciated guys. thanks alot
Good afternoon everyone,
I'm pretty sure this can't be done, because is blacklisted server side, but I'd want your opinion before giving up.
Is there any way to run the Netflix apps version for Android TV on non Android TV devices?
I've downloaded "Netflix (Android TV) 4.0.4 build 1716" (com.netflix.ninja_4.0.4_build_1716-1716_minAPI22(armeabi-v7a,x86)(nodpi)_apkmirror.com.apk) from APKMirror, it installs itself well, i can login, it starts but as soon as i play a movie i get this error: We're Having Trouble Playing This Title Right Now, tvq-pq-103 (1.10.5005.CODE_NOT_AVAILABLE).
I've searched in a lot of forums and it seems like nobody has been able to find a workaround.
Netflix understand that it's not running on a "certified device" and it blocks the playback.
Is there a way to bypass this?
My device is rooted so i could even change some system files, to make it look like another device.
I've got a Probox2 Air with regular Android, which is great for me, but it's a too difficult to use for my parents, with the smartphone version of Netflix and the air mouse.
In this forum the app modder simply says "Problem - Non-android TV boxes are blacklisted": http://www.wetekforums.com/v/index....ndly-apps-modified-to-work-on-regular-android
In the thread, a lot of people are in my same situation.
I've alredy tried to uninstall all the Netflix app, clear data and cache, logout and login, but it has been useless.
I really hope you can help me somehow.
If not, i think i'm going to sell the Probox2 Air and buy a Xiaomi Mi Box 3, but i'd really like to save the money and the time.
Bye!
I had the same issue and i just found a workaround which is a great solution to force HD and ultraHD on L1 and L3 widevine devices.
find bellow the link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/netflix-hd-ultrahd-ultrahd-dolby-5-1-l1-t3535349
Kind Regards,

I'm sorry dude but:
- That APK doesn't seem to fix my problem. That's about forcing HD but i don't care about HD, i want the Android TV version of the app.
- It seems it has a malware in it:
I signed up just to warn you all this contains a virus.
Currently only the below file is effected.
h t t p : / / 1 9 9 . 1 7 5 . 5 3 . 2 1 / n e t f l i x l a t e s t . h d o n l y . a p k (Force Enable HD only)
Im sure he will change that seeing that im saying this now.
its a trojan

This all seems pretty suspicious to me.
Hi there,
I bought a android box trongle X8, with a great performance spec (2G RAM/ 16G ROM). However, i found a problem using Netflix as It apears the error message tvq-pb-103 (1.10.5005.CODE_NOT_AVAILABLE).
Then I did my first research on the net about the error message, I learned more about Netflix and its new way of authentication in order to stream HD and UHD using widevineCDM, classifying L1 for certified devices and L3 for non-certified devices. I found as well your post that mentioned the same error message but no solution or workaround.
Then during all the day, I tried a version of Netflix for normal android (not TV) that works but the quality was SD. and after that, I found the link I have just posted to you, and I tried it by deleting the spaces between letters and it works and the quality was HD.
I was trying to share what I find as there is limited articles and person who are talking about this issues and there is no solution.
About the link, there is no trojan, or I am not aware of it, I downloaded the tree links and used tested one by one. I kept the ultraHD and it works as mentioned by the link owner.
I wish I could help, and of course, I would like to have an Android version that will work for my device as well, so I will keep looking if there is any update.
Kind Regards,
Nass
In that case, sorry if I was suspicious. And thank you for your effort.
Could you confirm that the APK you liked is a mod for the regular version of Netflix, not the Android TV one?
The version is the regular version. the version that we use on the smartphone, which is not the same of course than the android tv version, I agree.
Ok! Thank you anyway.
Best regards.
Sadly, I've found no solutions form this problem.
I had to buy a device with Android TV, the Xiaomi Box 3, which is great for my parents.
If someone finds a workaround, please let me know, I would love to have the Android TV version of Netflix on my Probox2.
Bye!
I gave up, eventually.
I did a new research recently and I didn't find any news, it still seems there's no way to use the Android TV version of Netflix on a non Android TV device.
So I bought a Xiami Mi Box 3, which is great.
Cheap, with updated Android TV os, good performance, comfortable remote and certified by Netflix.
I've discovered there's also an Android TV version of Google Play Music that is way better than the regular one, that's pretty unusable on TV.
I too have a Xiaomi Mi box 3 on my main tv its awesome. I have a MXQ pro 4k in my bedroom I installed a custom rom I found on freaktab that runs Android TV you cant tell the difference between the two by looking at them the lower spec MXQ pro plays Kodi, Plex, YouTube and Pluto TV flawlessly however NO HD Netflix its stupid I pay for HD Netflix and have a device powerful enough to run it but They go out of their way by putting extra blocks to prevent users from using their app just doesn't make sense to me.
Hi cscott1!
Could you please leave us here the link to the custom ROM you're talking about? It would be nice to give it a try!

Yep, that's the main point of all of this matter.
My Probox2 was powerful enough to use Android TV Netflix app and HD streaming but Netflix doesn't want me to do it. That's silly. Anyway, they're the ones in command.

The fact that I couldn't find a working Netflix apk for Android TV for my uncertified device irritated me so much that I decided to make my own sort of lol you can tweak the settings of Titan BETA skin for Kodi to look and act very much like Android TV Netflix here is what you can make it look like.

That's seriously really cool, mate! Congratulations!
Maybe if I had seen your work before, I would have kept my Probox2.
Thank you for posting in this thread.
Someone will have the apk mod of 3.2.2 netflix Android TV mod from the wetek forum, mega links were canceled.
I have Magisk + hide + lioemcrypto module + L1 and L3 would like to try if this apk works, very interested in the design and not in the resolution.
Hi januxool, no, I'm sorry, I didn't save it anywhere so I haven't got it.
Remote Crontrol issues Original Netflix don't scroll episodes menus
The Netflix works with the Original Remote Control? Can I change episodes 18, 20,21 with the original remote control or I need to buy a Mini-Keyboard to scroll on netflix episode menus?
Bump.
Still no way to get this working?
I'm sure with a rooted device there's a way to trick Netflix servers into thinking I'm using a certified box.
