I really think that as a big group of consumers, we can start a legal actions against all manufacturers that block bootloaders and not release administrative permissions on a device that we have bought. In Windows, Linux and Mac OS is so, we can have root permissions, why we can't have it on Android. I really think that this practice is illegal because mean that the manufacturer have more permissions than me on my personal device. Is like someone have the keys of my house. The security reason is a false statement, with root permissions we can have more control of our devices. A good implementation of apps like Supersu and security policies like selinux that we can disable also with an hardware button can grant a better security. If we can't solve with legal actions, at least we will not buy devices from manufacturers that practice this bad behaviour.

The real reason not to grant root permissions is for implement monopoly practices and to better sell their services at the expense of the freedom of the user.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] ssauger:
Thanks for the tip. Is root on the AFTV needed? Cause i sidloaded the latest service apk from Playstore on the AFTV and installed the latest client apk on my phone. But i am only able to move the mouse, no right or left clicks can be done. Also i can't get the keyboard working and doesn't have the gamepad view on my phone like its shown on playstore. I realy need a software mouse/keybard without root, cause i can't root the AFTV (new firmware)

Thanks in advance

This one works really well to control the fire tv from android : play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wukongtv.wkremote.client.en&hl=de

Can start apps, replace the remote but could not find any mouse or keyboard function..

And its chinese only....
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] Hrodriguez77:
This is what worked for me, using the iphone or ipad to control the fire tv.

1). Install the apk from this link on the fire tv: http://www.airkeyboardapp.com/android-installation-instruction

2). Install the air keyboard app from the apple App Store. In my experience, the app works better on the ipad than the iphone. It has better control over mouse sensitivity and the keyboard works great. The iphone version of the app has trouble with the keyboard.

Hope this helps!

Also this solution works best if your fire tv is rooted.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] e_jms:
This is the one I've just starting using. Need to be rooted to have mouse availability too. Can use my ipad/iphone as the mouse and keyboard. Not ugly either!

How do you get it installed in the FTV?
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] podge3:
This works quite well! Even gives mouse control.

I can't root my TFV so most of the others don't work at all or are limited. This app works fairly OK, although its a bit clunky and its mostly in Chinese.

[Fire TV Themes and Apps] Newbie_from_NJ:
After all the great reviews on DroidMote, you guys have convinced me into buying it. Here are a few details I read on this thread:

1. You Need to be rooted (which I am)

2. You Need to have Google Play Store installed on AFTV

3. There's a client app

4. There's a server app

Here are my questions:

1. If I install The Play Store on my AFTV, will all my apps get installed on the AFTV as well? (I have hundreds, I don't want this as I will probably run out of storage)

2. Which app (client vs server) goes installed where? Does the AFTV get the server and my phone gets the client?

3. Finally, after both apps get installed, how do I pair (for lack of a better word) them to communicate with each other?
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] jarayn:
1. Why would it do that? Certainly didnt for me.

2. AFTV is server.

3. Easily, youll see as soon as you open then app.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] beowolf:
Can someone please walk me through the server install for http://www.airkeyboardapp.com/ on my fire tv. I am having problems with installing the server apk.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] ssauger:
You can use Amazon Fire TV Utility App for sidload apps to the AFTV when you are on Windows. For Linux or Mac there are also Tools.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] beowolf:
i tried but it fails when I try to install it.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] ssauger:
Only this app fails, or any other? Make sure the FTV folder is in root C:\

and the apk to install got no spaces in its name. I can try it on my AFTV when i am at home later.

Edit: I was able to install the service on the AVTV, rename it to service.apk

But after i connected it with my phone, i wasn't able to do anything with it. The only app that works for me on my unrooted AFTV is Wukong TV Romote Control. Its all in chinese if you have not set your system language to english. Anyway, i got mouse suppert with that app and can start all apps from it installed on the FireTV.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] bam099:
I'm still using Limitless on a continual basis. It's great and does just what I need, no longer do I need a USB mouse or keyboard.

Is there a way to remote control the ATV without the Fire TV rooted?

I'd like to try the Wilmaa app, have it sideloaded, it starts but doesn't recognize the remote of the ATV, so I am stuck a little.

Rooting is atm not an option, as the current firmware isn't rootable :(
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] YoColdRain:
I started looking for app and realized new amazon fire tv app in play store will be released on 26th. Hopefully it has really good functionality.

does anyone with fire stick have good things to say?
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] yazyazoo:
Have the app for the FireStick. The keyboard only seems to work in certain apps. I sideloaded XBMC and was trying to type in some things and the keyboard doesn't do anything. It actually doesn't show up on my phone when switching to XBMC. I am still trying to look for a keyboard that works WITHOUT root since the Firetv Stick isn't working. I did get my bluetooth mini keyboard to work with the FireTV but I am looking for one that works on my phone.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] Y314K:
Can you check if the Limitless Remote App Mouse option works on the FireStick's for streaming apps like ESPN Watch & XFinity or Uverse that require a Mouse to be able to actually choose & play live fees.. DroidMote needs root so that is not an option...

Update: Never mind.. Seems ROOT is needed for the Limitless Remote Service so it will not work on the FireTV sticks...
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] zulu99:
Vote with your wallet, don't buy a device with a locked bootloader.

A device with a locked bootloader, only serves to sell the services of the company that produces it. Amazon has root permissions on that device with the platform key and the owner does not have root. Sooner or later, Amazon can do whatever he wants if the device continues to be blocked. In Europe a locked device in this way is illegal because it violates privacy laws ( the device contain your personal data, and without root you can't check if are stolen ) and because it creates a monopoly at the expense of other enterprises.

They are transforming Linux in a Walled Garden, after many sacrifices and hard work of the promoters and inventors of the open source.

I'm not against the sale of applications and services, but you can not force the choice with these illegal methods.

We must not just fight with exploits, but you have to denounce such behavior to the appropriate governative authorities.

Only the union is strength against these multi million dollar companies that for their economic interests are ruining the world of computing.

CetusPlay Rmeote App

You can install the CetusPlay on Google Play Store, This app is a good to using the mouse on Fire TV and stick.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] rayoflight64:
Can anyone tell me if this app would recognize my firetv stick? I lost the original remote but was able to use my phone with the Amazon remote app but now the app won't pick up the firetv stick. I can't install anything on the stick since I have no access to it.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] mook123456:
Cetusplay App.

Cetusplay app work great as a keyboard, mouse and D-pad I recommend you install it on your phone and follow the instructions to install it on your stick, if your struggling use the Easy Fire Tools app ( on google Play ) to push it to your stick and any other app you need.

I'm flashing my daughters NT and want to be able to setup Restricted User so i can limit what she can get into. I tried flashing to CM10.2.1 but after trying to set up the RU i got continuous boots to the cyanobot loading screen. Everything else works fine so its not a failed flash and apparently this is a known bug with 10.2.1 and the RU function. Are there any versions of CM10 that don't have this problem or do i have to use an even older CM version? Thank you in advance for any help
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadym1lkman:
Has anyone in their travels come across an unlocked D851 for sale? I want to buy this phone as it comes with Band IV LTE for TMob in the USA. I cant seem to find it, not like too many models are available this week regardless. However with the pre order TMob page up, I was wondering if the unlocked/unbranded version had made it to order pages.

will the D855 work on tmob. i saw a screen that listed all the LTE bands through a service menu, does that mean I could order it and turn the radio on?

Thanks
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lostatsea23:
You'd have to buy an unlock code most likely. And I don't think there is going to be an unbranded one sold.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadym1lkman:
So just buy it from TMO, unlock it, buy a backplate then flash the **** out of it and keep it moving?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lostatsea23:
Yeah, bedsides the flashing part as of now the boot loader is locked.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadym1lkman:
Damn, I couldnt get the stock international rom, Im really trying to avoid any carrier involvement? Do you know anything about the LTE being able to be switched on.. The D855 is being sold 'sim free' (as they say in the EU) seems like the only option as of now.. if its possible of course.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lostatsea23:
You can use a custom ROM in the development section. Just no custom kernel and such

---------- Post added at 10:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:41 AM ----------

D855 won't work for att LTE
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadym1lkman:
Itd be Band IV (1700MHz) for TMOBILE

I dont know if you can turn frequencies on for instance from a service menu such as this one: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=53156924&postcount=49
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lostatsea23:
I dont think it has that. It has 2100 but not 1700 AFAIK. And if the phone doesn't have the frequencies you can't just turn them on. Its a hardware thing.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadym1lkman:
Yea, Ive been out of the game for a few years. So I was/am unsure about whether or not the SoC has all the HW radios necessary but the software dictates the frequencies to Rx/Tx from/to.. leaving the supply chain simpler for the manufacturer.

Thanks for all your help Lost, i appreciate it! Probably just order the TMO D851 to ensure HW compatibility and then deal with the software as necessary.. The kernel being locked makes me wonder if non-carrier models be easier to crack.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lostatsea23:
Yeah a lot of people are saying the SoC supports many bands but the fact is that they have to have approval from the FCC to have those bands be unable at all on the phones.

Do i succesfully installed the new ROM or what? Thanks ya.

***Note- I dont wipe data/factory reset while flash, i just wipe cache only because i dont wanna erase all my data in my phone. So, i just do that 'dirty flash' method as suggested by other forumers.

The SIM card reader it's ok because I can read my SIM information with the app SIM Info and with the app Network Signal Info I noticed I receive my carrier signal but it shows NETWORK BLOCKED.

I don't know how, but it seems that my phone get locked. This is what I see in SIM Lock:

[] Network 0

I guess you decompiled it and changed minSdk to KitKat.

Android L-libs can't run in KitKat. And HenryMP would instant crash because it can't find the Material Design components in Framework.

It makes really no sense to backport it without a library which ports Material to previous Android versions, only some background colors are changed ;)
