1.) CPU didnt have any change.

2.) Not sure how to disable the beats audio.

3.) I did flash CM10.1 - No audio delay, im just not a big fan of CM now that ive been using the sense roms for so long. Also appears to buffer/lag more than before. Will try from home when i can omit the VPN as the delay.

Thanks again for all your help and hard work. Just curious anyway to cheat the 3/4g and make it think its on WiFi?
[Android Apps and Games] ytj87:
It's been a while since I set mine up, but where is the command to actually redirect traffic? Like...

push "redirect-gateway def1"

I know Spectrum uses port 443 for secure channels to verify location. Perhaps running on 443 interferes with that? I also recall having trouble with tcp as the protocol.

Mtu of 6000 why?

I also disabled cipher negotiation and run straight Blowfish for speed. Adaptive compression as well. Not sure if those matter, but I vaguely recall having problems before experimenting to find these that work.

can you remove the checks so the app works on firetv-stick

spectrum decided to not allow the spectrum-tv app on firesticks anymore

you can sideload the android app and launch it via adb

but it doesn't show in the launcher and the aspect ratio is messed up
[Android Apps and Games] Jaramirez:
Does the latest modded version allow screencast/miracast?

Edit: Found out you can if your in your home network. Is it possible to remove these checks?
[Android Apps and Games] Sammy201:
There's pages and pages in here.

I'd like to run Charter SpectrumTV on my 2015 Shield TV / Android TV connected via ethernet then through HDMI to my Denon AVR 2312ci to my Panasonic 60VT60 Plasma.*

On first impression this looks to only be for TWC Spectrum but when clicking on the Spectrum app in the Play Store, it in fact says TWC in the url bar.

Then I'm seeing that this is maybe for FireTV but there's forks of the apk for Android TV and also forks to ignore HDMI and other forks to allow it to properly connect via ethernet.

Needless to say I am a little bit confused by all this. Which apk should I grab?

TIA!
[Android Apps and Games] Sammy201:
I installed the apk in this post on my ShieldTV and it will open and let me log in but that is about it. I can sort of navigate around with my K400 keyboard, opening the "Hamburger" Menu in the upper right and I can select things there such as On Demand but from there I cannot select anything for playback. The version says it is 6.0.0 but I know that there's a later version out there from Spectrum.

Did Spectrum do something to mess up functionality on their end?
[Android Apps and Games] Sammy201:
Anyone? Do I need a different apk or has Spectrum just broken functionality for whatever reason?

how do they know I am on a mobile network

Spectrum has been causing trouble with Roku devices so I am trying the android route. I just installed 6100000 and am at the LA airport. Logged in and it seemed to work fine. But there was a notification at the bottom stating log in from your home WiFi on the spectrum netork to get the most channels. If you click the button, it tells me I am on a mobile data network. So I startup my opemVPN to my house and run the app again. Same notice. How is it determining this?

Edit: also just tested the casting feature of the 610000 build and you can not cast.
[Android Apps and Games] besweeet:
Which OpenVPN client are you using? I use OpenVPN Connect and Spectrum works fine. However, I noticed some non-Wi-Fi-only channels will error out while on a VPN. If I connect to home Wi-Fi, open a few channels and then go back to my VPN on 4G, they'll start to work. It's like there's authentication needed that won't work, even with a VPN.
[Android Apps and Games] kuhnto:
I am using the Android OpenVPN client V3.0.5. I connect to DDwrt router at the house. Whats most interesting is that I do not need to connect to the VPN to have the spectrum app work on my phone. I am in California right now but my house is in Orlando.
[Android Apps and Games] besweeet:
A handful of channels will work anywhere in the US. This is a basic feature of the app.
[Android Apps and Games] kuhnto:
Ok, Now I see where the app puts the channels I can not access (at the bottom of the list). It looks like a miss the local OTA channels. I still get spectrum News channel for Central Florida, which was confusing me. I just VPNed back in and I now see the channels I was missing.
[Android Apps and Games] samappz:
I do the same thing but only route the addresses that Spectrum uses for location checking to my split tunnel openvpn. That way all bandwidth the phone is using is not making its way through my home vpn first only a few kilobytes worth for location check pings.
[Android Apps and Games] kuhnto:
Great idea

I need to find out how to set that up. How can you check for the IPs it reaches out to?

I have a Nvidia Shield Android TV running a full Android Nougat Custom Rom and this first modded version I posted works fine for me.

Try this version and let me know if it works or if it still crashes for You!

Is there any way to remove the blue strip at the bottom of live tv when the app is not connected to official wifi? I use this on my car stereo, and the strip gets in the way.
[Android Apps and Games] saulin78:
The bar at the says connect to your WIFI to enjoy all the channels available or something like that?

I also get that on my Shield Android TV Box in Landscape mode.

To get around this, I use this app

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.crape.rotationcontrol&hl=en

It ads rotation controls to the drop down menu in the status bar. I switch to portrait mode and then select to view the video in full screen and it seems to go full screen without the message, you can try the different rotation modes and see if the bar goes away.

This app has very bad controls for Android TV and even the mouse clicks with the air mouse don't work in certain rotation modes.
[Android Apps and Games] Ibuprophen:
[MENTION=6908465]saulin78[/MENTION] and [MENTION=952049]dice[/MENTION], purely out of curiosity, I had spent a little while trying to figure out why the app installed fine but, immediately crashes when being launched and I found the culprit...

Eureka! LOL!

I'm not sure if this was a recent thing with the Spectrum TV app and i hadn't used either the unmodified nor your modified version on my device in quite some time. This was only because of the time spent on my other developments and life in general. LOL!

Anyways, it looks like the original "META-INF" directory has 26 files and another directory with 1 file within that one.

When the apk is being decompiled, the META-INF directory is being wiped out because when you Recompile it and sign the app, the META-INF is being created with the only the 3 signature files.

Since the 26+ files have been wiped out, the app will crash because of those missing dependencies.

I'm doing the best I can to explain this via text... :)

It looks like this is tied to the issues that iBotPeaches has been working on in Github regarding other similar/same issues with the recent changes to the AAPT, Kotlin, and the Namespaces.

I've got a feeling that it wasn't long ago that Spectrum began following suit with other companies regarding this.

The APK Editor Pro was able to deal with this on only 2 of the feature options. This was because those 2 options doesn't completely perform the decompile/back small. They perform a simple editing feature within the apk in a way similar to editing a flashable zip file without having to decompress and resign it.

I hope that I had explained this okay via text... LMAO! :eek:

After I had figured this issue out, I just grabbed your Modded app and slightly edited the name only. Now it shows up as "Spectrum TV (MOD)".

This was just as a personal preference but, your modifications were kept as is. I don't mess with this since I believe that "if it's not broken, don't fix it". :)

Thank you very much! You do great work and please keep it alive and I hope that I had helped you out in some way. :thumbup:

I just wanted to share the attached Spectrum TV Mod app only as a member contribution from a huge fan here.

It's the last version provided by the AWESOME Developer on this thread (with the HDMI removed) but, I just slightly changed the App Name and Icon.

I do this every time the Developer here releases a new one since it only takes a few minutes to knock out.

This is only so I know what the app is by looking at its name and icon and has always been for personal use.

I just thought that you all would like to enjoy it! :)

If this threads developer would like me to remove it, I will completely understand and will comply without hesitation. :eek:

I am struggling to get this to work and have a few questions.

1. Is Root still required? The Page 1 info seems to hint it Root is not needed for the TWC/Spectrum App?

2. Which Proxy App should be used? I can't seem to locate an Auto Proxy (Root) app in the market. I installed the Auto Proxy which does not require root? Or need the "ProxyDroid" which does need root?

3. And is anyone using Squid Proxy with Ubuntu to connect vs a windows machine?

I can root my phone if needed, just not sure if it still needed with the modded apk or not?

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Ibuprophen:
I've got this app working on a Rooted & Non-Rooted device.

Regarding these questions, I've never configured/modified any Proxies for any of my devices.

The 2 devices and even my router I use this app on has no proxy apps or configurations. Using a proxy is a personal preference.

[Android Apps and Games] beemgee:
Proxy is required if you want to watch the "only at home" channels" away from home, so that Spectrum thinks you are at home

I see... I never used that part of the app.

Thank you very much for clarifying this! :)

[Android Apps and Games] Marco0070:
What you want to use is a VPN. Most new routers have setting to use apps like OpenVPN
[Android Apps and Games] ptmuldoon:
I've setup OpenVPN on my router as well. But still can't seem to get my full channel lineup when connected to it. I did previously have the main spectrum app installed from the market. But I did uninstall that one, reboot phone and then reinstall the modded file.

Do you need to be on Wifi with VPN to get your full lineup? Or should connecting to VPN over 4G also work?
[Android Apps and Games] Marco0070:
4g works fine but you need to use the OpenVPN app on your phone and make sure you connect to it on your router. There's instructions on the specific router online for OpenVPN just do a search.
[Android Apps and Games] ptmuldoon:
Correct. I've got the OpenVPN app on my phone and connect it to my home wifi when on 4G. But the Spectrum App still keeps saying I need to be on my home wifi to see all the channels.

Is there a way to confirm I've got the correct modded apk file installed? I installed the one from back on post #1012 .
[Android Apps and Games] Marco0070:
I'm using the one from post 1015
[Android Apps and Games] ptmuldoon:
Strange. I tried the one on post 1015 and still can't get a full channel line up via VPN. And I confirmed the VPN is working. On my phone in 4G, I can connect to vpn and then navigate my network shares and even stream a video off my home server. Yet the Spectrum app still complains I need to be on my home wifi.

Unsure if it mattters, but I am on Sprint and have not rooted this phone yet, although I could do it if is really needed. Anyway, pretty late here and I'll try again some more tomorrow with it.
[Android Apps and Games] ptmuldoon:
So, wanted to give an update on this.

I think it may be a combination of things.

I rooted my phone today. Its an older Samsung S6Edge+ on Sprint. And even after root, when on 4G and if I use OpenVPN to connect to my home router, the Spectrum App still insists I need to be on my home wifi.

I was using the App Auto Proxy originally as well, which does not need root. I could never get that App to successfully connect to my Squid proxy server although all port forwarding, etc is correct.

Today after rooting my phone, I decided to try the App ProxyDroid. This app does need root. After entering my dyndns address, it immediately connected to my Squid Server on the correct port, and the Spectrum App then works with all channels!!!. Success!!!

So no idea why I can now get the DroidProxy to work with the Spectrum App, but not the VPN. So just guessing maybe the Modded App is not bypassing the VPN check?
[Android Apps and Games] Marco0070:
My phone is not rooted I'm using OpenVPN on my Asus router and on my phone moded app works fine for me. But if you got it working that's all that matters right.
[Android Apps and Games] ptmuldoon:
So, pretty strange and I do hope to figure out why I can't connect via OpenVPN and get full access with the Modded app.

I also have an Asus Router, the AC68P model. And have OpenVPN and can connect to it just fine. Yet, I have now tried on both my Phone and also on a Samsung (rooted) T800 tablet. And both of them after connecting with OpenVPN do not give all channels.

Now, what is a little strange is that if I enable the PPTP vpn connection, I can connect via both phone and Table and access all channels. But doing that requires a screen lock on your phone and the PPTP connection seems a little less secure with just a username/password to connect.

I would prefer to use the more secure OpenVPN versus any PPTP connection and having open ports for a proxy.

Any ideas if maybe need to configure an OpenVPN setting on the router?

---------- Post added at 03:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:06 PM ----------

SUCCESS!!!

Turned out to be a simple thing. In the OpenVPN settings on the router, I just needed to change to allow the client to access "Internet and local network" instead of the default "Local network only"
[Android Apps and Games] cubandanger05:
I have a question for you. So I decided to decompile spectrum app from the playstore and managed to find and edit all root checks, so it now works on my rooted phone. I couldn't for the life of me find where the USB debugging checks were. Can you point me to the right file(s)? Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Ibuprophen:
I am not sure how this is implemented on the Spectrum app. I did state that I only modified the icon and name and the rest was from the developer here.

I would have to do a comparison to the two exact versions (Original and Modified) to see.

I planned to do so sometime but, I'm involved with my other developments at this point of time.

I wish that I could be of more help...

Castinh checks removed?

It would be great if someone could look into removing the casting checks from this app. I would find it more more useful than the HDMI check. I have started researching the basics or decompiling and looking at the output but have not had much time to delve into it much further. Cubandanger05, where to you find the USB checks?

My apologies for the confusion. I took the newest app from the playstore and removed the root checks. I was asking how to remove the USB debugging checks because I couldn't find them, and that's what you saw me talking about. The app that was shared a few pages back has a lot of different checks removed so I suggest you use that one. The day we're forced to update then I know I can at least remove the root checks and it should work.

I doulbe checked by removing all the ALKs I have around, on the computer and phone (OP5), and reinstalled. Still get the DFE-1009 error. I know other APKs that have been linked on here have worked with regards to root, but this one did not. I am curious. I use Magisk for root. Are you using SuperSU or something else that could cause a discrepancy? As a matter of fact, I thought MAgisk was more transparent.
[Android Apps and Games] Ibuprophen:
I'm going to have to think on this a bit more...

I just tried on another device with a similar issue as reflected here and they had made the app a bit more challenging regarding some of the additional dependencies they had used.

I typically don't really bother with too many of these types of apps but, this one.

Since the one I had provided doesn't work very well, I'll just remove it from the File Host Account and get back to this app again.

One other think to point out, is that the check for root occurs when the "Live TV" button is pushed and Not at startup of the app.
