Since the mod is the same as the Xfinity Steram App, I also modded this app.
Removed HDMI Check and Root Check. I also tried to make the app think that it's on Wifi or High Speed Mobile Network. This might or might not work. I'm trying this because this app seems to have low bitrate for the streams and it looked like when it drops to low quality it does not seem to recover. I'm not sure what causes this; but I was actually connected to Ethernet on my Shield Android TV Box and I have good bandwidth.
I only tested it on my Shield Android TV Box. Also note that it might not work on the Leanback Launcher and if it does You will need an Air Mouse. I have my Shield with a custom ROM that runs the full Android ROM and it works fine for me.

Can you explain how you removed the HDMI Check in the apk? I would like to remove it from Bell Fibe Tv app.
Thanks

That's a hard app to mod, the same with Virgin TV Anywhere. I modded an old version of Bell Fibe TV months ago and it was working fine but then it made me upgrade. I tried last week to mod it again and I gave up. I could not get the HDMI check removed after many hours trying.
It does work on my Laptop running Remix OS and using VGA to connect to my TV though. However on my Shield over HDMI it doesn't.
Could you provide the apk for the one you had working?

Don't have it anymore but it would not work anyways because the app won't start, it needs the new version
Maybe give this a try if you are using Android M or lower
http://www.tvboxforum.com/showthread.php?tid=903
This used to work for me on Marshmallow for the Bell Fibe TV App. I'm pretty sure it's not working on Nougat though
Thanks I'll give it a try.
The Contour App works great!!!

I didn't work for me on Bell Fibe Tv lastest app. Also using Jelly Bean
Anyone been able to test watching through VPN on the Cox app successfully?
I have an openvpn setup on my router and I am able to VPN from outside my home network on my laptop and watch all channels as if I was on my home wifi. However, when I try to VPN from my phone and watch through the Cox app, it acts like im on my home network just as my laptop did, but when I hit play the screen just sits there loading until it times out. This happens with the patched version of the app posted as well (not sure if it was patched to support this).
Any assistance is appreciated. Thanks all!

Open the Fibe TV apk with APK Editor in Your Android Box, you want to do a full edit
Search for mirror, you will find a hit on bools.xml
Change the value from true to false. Save the file and build the apk again, let me know if that works for You!
That gets rid of the mirroring error for me but gives me some other crappy connection error on my Shield Android TV Box. However it might work for You!

Not sure if this thread is still going or if I should start a new one. Just wondering if anyone had been able to look into modding the cox apk to function through a vpn (aka NOT in-home) successfully? Or if they can point me in the right direction. Thanks.
Could we get an updated version of of the app. If possible? I need
v4.10.2.007 because it's the only one that'll launch on my Mi Box
can you tell me what is is you did to remove this limitation? or would you mind doing the same for the spectrum apk?
At the moment it stopped working if I tried to login using a new shield tv I was trying to set it up with. Download works, chrome works but after I put my login credentials it saids the file is corrupt anyway to fix that? On my other shield tv it's been logged in so no problems with that, just can't add it to my new one.

Hello.
Remote App which comes Pre-installed in the Galaxy Note 10.1 has an issue.
I have a Philips TV and I started the App, the instructions are fine and I was able to get it working for the TV just fine.
My Cable Operator has provided us with a Set Top Box which is not in the listed product list of the App.
I chose the General Option but that doesn't seem to work.
I used the feedback system of the app and it said your query is registered and we'll get back but I haven't heard anything as yet.
The Cable Operator is Hathway. The Set Top Box is from Humax.
Can anyone please help me out.
Thanks.
Right now no solution for this prob. HUMAX-profile is not provided yet (I have the same problem with my HUMAX receiver for sky)
We´ll have to be patient and wait until more devices (esp. for Europe) are supported ..................................
Ahh...
Not the only one.
I shouldn't be saying i'm glad...
The problem is when I change the channel, I loses the connectivity.
Then I need to set it back on Side AV from the Input...
So on an So Forth.
Nevertheless I like the app because it allows me to control the TV from the Note while i'm working.
Great App I must say.
Same here
Happy to see that there is someone else who is searching like me
If you find a solution please don't forget to reply about it
Are you refering to Peel remote app?
Well I faced the same problem, the Sammy Tv works fine but with the box ( Thomson ) I guess I tried almost the brands in there and not a single one worked.
Then I tried the Watch On ( It's a Samsung app ) and works great and it's pretty much the same as Peel.
You could give it a try.
UPDATE
Development of this app will continue here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-spectrum-tv-aka-twc-tv-t3847520
Thanks for everyone who kept this project going!
Hello here you will find the most recent TWC TV App from the android market... except it has ALL restrictions removed, NO ADB checks, NO proxy checks, NO HDMI checks, NO ROOT checks, and best of all, a method to watch ALL the channels while you're away from home, not just SOME of the channels TWC let's you watch; this can be viewed over 3g/4g/wifi... hell even 1x lol.
NOW the part I like... and maybe the reason why the root check was implemented by TWC.... you can actually WATCH live TV on any wifi, 3g/4G network away from your home! all you need is a few tools and you're on your way.... if this is of no interest to you then just scroll down to the download link
To watch outside of the home network:
Install a proxy server on a machine inside your network (a computer that can play live tv from twctv.com successfully)
I use wingate FREE edition (http://wingate.com)
Make sure you configure your router to forward traffic on that port to your machine
as a side note, make sure you assign a static IP on your local machine so your router doesn't get confused
also make sure you go to whatsmyip.org and get your external IP address (as you'll need this for the android side)
Install an app from the android market called "Auto Proxy (ROOT)"
Configure Auto Proxy to connect to your machine... here you will enter the IP you got earlier from your home machine and the port you chose when you configured wingate...
Now activate AutoProxy and all traffic will be routed through your home computer (all apps, etc...) meaning when you use the timewarner app it will think you're inside your home network!!
Make sure you turn it off once you're done watching TV, otherwise you will be consuming all of your upload bandwidth and also slow down your speeds since it has to go through the proxy...
Profit!!
Some Notes:
This app should work on any phone with gingerbread and up. (Tested myself)
Feel free to donate It took me a while to learn how to do this and it took alot endless nights
I think i should also point out that I didn't use anyone else's code to do this; I'm a lone developer and just like the challenge
I am also working on a workaround to the proxy thing... a way to watch Live TV on your cellular network alone... no proxy required (I make no promises but i'm looking into it and hopefully I'll come up with something)
I'll also try to release a new version if updates are released... try and keep everything current
Questions? need a more detailed guide or anything else? just ask! I'm here to help ... (but see post #2 first)
The 3.21.14 app would not be possible without GreenNasty... THANKS!

Thanks to those that made decompiling/recompiling easy!!

donations are also appreciated... modifying something without the source code is tough... and a cup of coffee can go a long way when coding thanks for your support!
Bug List
APP Version 3.2#44: Some users report that HD doesn't work as well with the new app. Time Warner did alot of changes due to the move to streaming away from home, that means that they definetely could have messed something up.... if HD is not working properly for you and want to try the previous version (2.6#36) feel free to download it here: http://www.mediafire.com/?s3evtfhdedy3061
If you wish to decompile the app yourself, i have included comments in most of the important parts of the code that i modified... i will admin, they are HARD to understand and modify, but if you're looking to do it yourself in the future, I've helped you out
Issues/Troubleshooting
If you have tried this app and it does not work for you then i need the following information:
are you using the proxy instructions I mentioned or using the app using your home network?
MAKE SURE your device is rooted
if you are then please test it on your home network first and make sure it works (whithout ANY proxy, etc...)... if it does then let me know what issues you get when you use wingate and Auto Proxy....
if it does work on your home network but not with the proxy, then please tell me detailed instructions on how you set it up or if you need a guide on how to do so
do you have internet service through time Warner?
what device are you using?
what rom and kernel are you using, and what versions? (if you don't what kernel then just tell me which rom and version and i'll figure it out)
Are you rooted? With Super SU or just SuperUser?
All of the above checked? then i will need a logcat while the app is running Feel free to pm me the logcat ONLY after you have posted what i've requested and I'll let you know to send me a logcat... i don't want to receive random logcats and will ignore them if i haven't seen your information in this thread first!
Logcats can be taken via: adb shell logcat
OR adb shell and then type logcat, you can use the -f parameter to save it to a file rather than copying it from your command prompt to a file...
If there is anything else you think i should know, then please post that as well.... any little bit of information WILL help, trust me
I am committed to help.... but please help me by following the above instructions to make both our lives easier!
Thanks!
Will this work home lan with rooted / adb on ?

I know i haven't posted yet, but i recently got the TWC TV app and found that it doesn't work on Rooted devices or EVEN if you have ADB on!! anyways, I'm a developer but in a different language, nevertheless I looked around the forums and figured out how to modify the APK and came up with this... what better way to do my first post huh? lol

I really do not understand why they care if rooted / debugging is turned on?
I mean its at least a little understandable if one has an unlocked
bootloader and running on a non-standard rom.

There is competing theories on why they care... one of the reason i can think of (which i said in the OP) is that you can use a root app to enable traffic tunneling through a proxy (thus circumventing their "home network") restriction
Is this the phone version of the app?? Just wondering because I'm trying to get it to work on my HP Touchpad with CM10 and the signed versions I have found for the tablet are around 5mb and yours its just under 2.
Thanks!
*UPDATE*
Not sure why you version is so much smaller but it works perfectly on my tablet. I have been searching high and low for a fix and this was it. I can't thank you enough!!!

I wish I could, unfortunately that's a problem on the server's end, not the app... sometimes certain channels are unavailable because tw is having an issue on their end.... unless you're getting the error on every channel... right now I think Disney channel is having that issue, is it happening with a lot of channels?
Works great on nexus 10 running cm10.1 nightly thank you! I had to edit files after updating ROM now I don't have to, appreciate your work. HDMI would be a big bonus, cheers mate.

I will happily test it, i picked up a $10 cable from walmart, its a bit short but should do the trick. I managed to poke around in the code myself, dont know what the hell im doing, but thought i would give it a go. Anyway doing a file compare with your version and the stock version, i can see quite a few changes which im sure took quite a bit of time, so i want to say Thank You again!!!

I heard TWC app have troubles with some checkings with some ROMS maybe removing the checking when that message is shown. Look I tested on iPad, iPod, iPhone and. Samsung Galaxy Tab Android and works perfect but specific the problem is on Amazon Kindle 8.9 with iOs 8.1.4 and others in every channel no some channel is every channel the message and the message appears in no more than 30 seconds, in other words you only have around 30 seconds of video in any channel and the message is shown and other people have the same issues. If you have the code and you can check the message when is shown and remove the condition or if you have the source maybe we can see when the message is shown I can see to have an idea. If you look inside other forums in this webpage there are other people with dame problem in other devices.
Thank you

Can you tell me what specific message comes up? there's different messages that come up for different scenarios, if it's only "this channel is currently unavailable at this time" then i need to know specifics... what device, what android version, rooted or not.... a logcat of the app running would also be nice... I also don't understand what you mean by "iOS 8.1.4", afaik iOS is only on apple devices ... this fix is only applicable to android devices.
Let me know if it's happening to you and let me know the specifics i mentioned and i'll see what i can do about it.
I've been having some troubles with the official NFL Gamepass app on my Nexus 5. Whenever I try to watch a game or the NFL Network live stream, I get an error message saying the there is an error playing the selected video.
The app works fine on my Nexus 7 tablet with Android 4.3, on my brothers Samsung S4 Android 4.3, on all my PCs and on my old iPhone. So I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with my network. I've also tried it on 4G, which results in the same error message.
I'm in contact with NFL Gamepass support, but they haven't been really useful so far. The only thing they've suggested was rebooting the phone, reinstalling the app and wanting to know my location and public IP address.
What I wanted to ask is if anyone else with Android 4.4 KitKat could test this. I think it must have something to do with the Android version, but I can't be sure because I have no other 4.4 devices to test it on.
Same here! Working well on Nexus 7 with 4.3 but no good at all on Nexus 5 with 4.4... I guess it's a KitKat issue...

That means I won't be upgrading my Nexus 7 until this is fixed, since I use that device most when watching games.
I've had some more back and forth with the support guys and I'm pretty sure they don't have a clue what they're talking about. They asked for my location and IP address, which I thought was kind of weird. Gave it anyway and got a mail saying they "unlocked" my IP address and that it should be working now. Never mind that I already told them other devices on the same network were working fine and that I had the same issues on 3G or 4G. I also don't get a static IP from my ISP, so I don't know what they're talking about.
I asked for more help, we'll see how it turns out.

Alright, let's hope they fix this soon.
My Nexus got udated yesterday to Kitkat as well and I got the same problem - cannot play any video from NFL Game Pass right now....anyone got an official response on this?
Regardless, good thing is that there is still workaround possible. I'm still able to see any videos from NFL Game Pass through XBMC. Just use one of the nightly builds that is working on Kitkat, add NFL GP addon and here you go. It's not that convenient to use as an official NFL app howeve you can still watch all the games you want and we going to have many of those tomorrow. So there is still some time left to set it up.
I'm in Canada, and it won't show up on the store unless I (presumably) spoof my location. I know people have had it working from other countries already - could someone upload this? Much appreciated!

I live in Canada and it installed and works great, so you should have no problems.
Yes, I'm a retard. There's a link to the app from the Shield store (when you press the home button), but this goes no where in the google play store - turns out the GRID beta was already installed on my shield automatically with update 65. Found under all apps.
Could someone rip it for me?
It ism't working for me in Indonesia, it is not installed in the update, I don't want to wait to get back to the UK, I'm here for a couple of months
Agree, grid beta apk is needed. Someone please upload apk.
please upload apk

Hi,Grid is working in northern Ireland In the UK On the shield!
here you go
Here you go! http://icloudserv.com/gridapp.apk
But it will only work on Shield (I tried on my HTC one and it says "this device is not supported") I also tried to open file and change something, but everything is encrypted , and other files dont have needed information on how to change the file to work with Every Android device, as far as I understand Cloud Gaming has nothing to do with NVIDIA TEGRA GPU. Is it possible to decrypt it and make see Remote Desktop with all graphic Features such as D3d or OpenGL? Kelper GPU supports passthrough.

Nether Tegra Note 7 support it.
From nvidia forum:
"The TegraNote 7 doesnt have integrated 5Ghz wifi in it, which we know can result in some stuttering. "
Só maybe you device should have integrated 5GHz wifi to work.
Hi,
Maybe changing the build.prop might help?

As for the 5Ghz routers, that's only a recommendation. I live in Portugal (170+- latency), and I can play Grid just fine with my 2,5Ghz routers (RT-N16 with Tomato).
Obviously they should be fined tuned to offer the best possible performance to wireless clients.

try a logcat while launching the app to see why it's unhappy. On one device I had, Tasker installed but would not run without one of the framework files supplied by Maps. Just copying in the framework file was enough to get Tasker running, didn't need the app itself.
Anyone tried a nodded build prop? It would be cool to get this working on a nexus 10
Hello Everyone!!
Just wanted to check if anyone playing around Airtel Internet TV (needless to say it'a based on Android TV).
If yes, from where I can get its Firmware/ROM and its system APKs.
Thanks

I cant find anything in internet except your thread, i wanted to root my airtel internet tv box also, it runs android marshmallow, have you tried finding using the codename ganesa? how did you find the codename ganesa?
From browsing system files using File Explorer, how to start tinkering with this device ?
Do we need to contact any specific Devs ?
My Airtel DTH subscription just ran out, and I have no intentions of renewing it (do most of my TV watching on the phone via JioTV). Unfortunately, without an active subscription the Airtel Internet TV box locks you out of not just the DTH part, but also the Internet part -- you cannot use it as a simple Android TV device.
So have been searching for ways to root the device and/ or bypass the subscription check. Any ideas? Hoping there is a way to wipe out Airtel customised OS and install a vanilla version of Android TV. Or even an Oreo port if that is possible.
Request to senior members to guide us on rooting android TV
Request to senior members to guide us on rooting airtel TV and possibly on how to port Oreo TV update to this.

Almost all devices ship with either of the above two categories of firmware, though things don’t end there. Independent developers who like to customize their devices beyond the standard options provided often tend to release the fruits of their labor for the rest to enjoy, in form of custom ROMs. The more open the platform, the more independent development it attracts, a good example of which is the independent custom ROM development for Android.
In case of proprietary firmware such as iOS and Windows Phone 7, there is often little or no room for customization of the operating system itself but regardless of that, developers still tend to release custom ROMs bundled with useful tools and hacks applied to provide functionality beyond the stock features.
someone pls post airtel internet tv apk
airtel smart box is just a box without subscription
The airtel internet tv is good till it has a active subscription. But once it's over its a stupid box which can't be used any where so any idea to make it work independently. Can we change its os so it becomes totally a smart box and not a setop box anymore as I don't have any intention to renew my subscription ever. So atleast the box will be useful for me.
I have got the source code can anyone develop a rom which can work without dish

i need this too. Now it is upgraded as Airtel XStream if someone can take it up i can install it in my android box
Any response on this? I recently got one upgraded as the old internet tv box went bad and stopped working... Would love to be able to remove subscription check on this new xstream box
@anshul123
I got this trick from a @Dhairy
Not very convenient but I have a way to enjoy apps without recharging DTH, Go to settings ---> apps ---> Airtel Xstream ---> Force Stop
Now, press back button and move back to apps list -----> Look for play store and open from the settings, to your surprise play store will open.
Now, search and install ATV Launcher (Or any launcher of your choice) -----> Open ATV Launcher from app store
Voila you can see all apps there and they would open normally.
Actually the check is done by their Launcher so if we could root and delete that launcher and install android tv home ( Google launcher for android Tv), then theoretically that would bypass the subscription check also.
Unfortunately, you have to force stop Airtel Xstream every time till then. Also I would recommend not to upgrade your box as they may fix this vulnerability and use some other method to check for subscription. Till then enjoy!
I have Airtal Xstream Box and it works perfect on it. However it would be great if someone can come up with a custom ROM for Airtel Xstream Box.
