YES!

Working on our NP stock unrooted M 6.0.1

And on the main menu!

I am hardwired, and it asked if I want to use my data connection instead of wifi this time or always.

Always, of course.

Golden!

Thank you, sytanek !

How did you get the slide out menu to work? I have a rooted Nexus player on 6.01 and using a Bluetooth mouse. The hamburger menu button doesn't slide out the menu categories for me.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] renoob:
Still not functional, that is why the app is modded to go to the live screen.

The regular Infinity app (non TV Go) can be used for watching recorded shows that are setup with a separate device.

That one needs to be side-loaded via ES FileExplorer ---> networks ---> remote manager and opened using Sideload Launcher
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GinoDivx:
Not working on the latest unrooted NP, all updated SW. App from the latest link (3 months ago) seems to install, but only the "Done" button is available, and "Open" is dim and not selectable. And then the app doesn't show up in the Settings->Apps nor in Sideload Launcher.

Any suggestions? Thanks!
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] renoob:
I have

Unknown Sources - On

Verify Apps - On

Restricted Profile - Off

How did you load it?
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GinoDivx:
Yes, same settings here. Loaded it through Google Drive which I have installed on my NP. I just clicked and used Package Installer to install it. It installs fine, with Done and Open buttons showing up, but Open is grayed out after install, and the program doesn't seem to be installing correctly, since it doesn't show up in sideloaded apps.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] renoob:
I downloaded the apk and pushed it to the NP download folder using Remote Manager in ES FileExplorer.

Sounds like a permission isn't working, but I'm not that up on those matters, but when i had it locally stored on the NP, I installed it after browsing there via ESFX.

You know how to push to NP via ftp with ESFX?

Edit- Maybe bad download?
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GinoDivx:
I will try a similar approach tonight. BUT I have sideloaded at least 15 apps using Google Drive into Nexus Player. I will try to use the ES File Explore Networking to place the app locally. Even easier, I will probably just put it on USB Flash drive, insert into NP, and copy into downloads.

Edit: I re-downloaded it to my lowly LG Volt running 4.4.2 and it wouldn't install either. So, I am guessing the apk file being shared is no good.

Can someone maybe re-upload and/or re-share a working file?

Thanks!

edited xfinity TV Go 2.4.7.002 (defaults to live TV page)

Thanks for posting your guide, [MENTION=1053849]sytanek[/MENTION]. I followed your steps to edit the latest version of xfinity TV Go (v. 2.4.7.002, released 3/8/16) so that on launch, it defaults to Live TV instead of Featured Video.

It is on my google drive for now:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7vt2xQz5PuASDgxX0g4dlZ0ZVE/view

I'm not sure if I can leave it up indefinitely (so if it helps, I'd be grateful if someone could mirror it):

Out of curiosity, any ideas for making similar edits to the DirecTV .apk so that it also defaults to "Live TV?" I know it isn't a make-or-break issue (since the DirecTV app doesn't have the three-dot menu problem), but if it's a straightforward procedure, it would make it more convenient to get to live content.

Thanks.

[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vrl2:
Strange - does this problem still happen if you wait a while? I tested the edited .apk on two different devices with two different logins before I posted it, and I did not encounter any errors... what error message are you receiving, specifically?

Occasionally due to network traffic, I'll get a streaming error (just as in previous versions) -- but waiting and trying again fixes the issue.

Hey all,

I modified the latest apk to launch each of the menu items, based on whichever you'd like to access. Just install the base app (com.xfinity.playnow-v2.4.7.002.apk) first and then whichever ones you'd like next.

You will have to log into each application separate, and if you wish to switch to another, you must exit the previous by backing all the way out.

Xfinity TV Go - Android TV v2.4.7.002 - bit.ly/1Yf3TxD

Family & Kids - com.xfinity.playnow.family.kids-v2.4.7.002.apk

Live TV - com.xfinity.playnow.live.tv-v2.4.7.002.apk

Movies - com.xfinity.playnow.movies-v2.4.7.002.apk

Networks - com.xfinity.playnow.networks-v2.4.7.002.apk

TV Series - com.xfinity.playnow.tv.series-v2.4.7.002.apk

Enjoy!
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] renoob:
I was wondering if this was possible- Had been holding off upgrading to the latest apk thinking of experimenting.

How large of a TV are you watching this on? Streaming to my 55" looks really bad (@1080p)! Is there a way to make the quality better?
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] molozx:
In my current setup it's 42'' FullHD (1080p) - nexus player, HDMI and home wifi.

In general quality is OK - I would say like 720p or so.

In my case xfinity tv go app takes like 30sec to improve the quality of picture (buffering behind the scene). On the other hand on the same setup - netflix or youtube takes seconds for full quality.

I shot a quick video - hopefully upload and share in a few.

I've found this too, but if I copy the contents of /data/data/com.xfinity.playnow/ to /data/data/com.xfinity.playnow.live.tv (or any of the others) it then works for live tv (or which other one I picked).

I'm trying to figure out how to symlink

/data/data/com.xfinity.playnow/live.tv/

/data/data/com.xfinity.playnow/networks/

/data/data/com.xfinity.playnow/movies/

Anyone else seeing issues when switching between livetv and other apps. When i do that I get an error launching any live channel "Subscription needed to view..." which I can't seem to get rid of unless I delete all app data and restart the app which then goes back to the login screen.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elada22:
does it work outside the us? free or subscription needed?

tnx
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CuF:
The app is for Comcast subscribers. You need account login information and you are limited to the channels for which you are subscribing.

The problem rishidhar is having was mentioned earlier in the thread: moving between the different hacked versions requires clearing data/cache and re-entering login information between each version.

I'm sure Comcast is aware that the problems being discussed in this thread also prevent their app from running on android TVs. It would be the end of their converter box racket if they fixed it.

Edit: jakejm79 has a suggested fix a few posts up.

[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] renoob:
fyi-

When logging in to the remote help page of the comcast account used to access content, the connected device tree identifies the Nexus as "google fugu Nexus Player".

I'm sure they are gleaning this info, but if it falls within the T&C pertaining to connected devices...

One thing I have noticed, is that up until about 2 weeks ago, commercials would not play on some LiveTV channels, you would be presented with a placeholder "we'll be right back" screen.

Recently, though, generic commercials started to be streamed in repetitive fashion.

I am using the go app for live tv.

I will try this tonite.

With a hub powered with an old cell phone wall wart, the wi-fi Rii keyboard works great, the excellent side benefit of this hub is you can hard wire your internet connection and still have an open usb available for a storage device.

I'd like to second renoob's question.

I can't find any current version of Xfinity TV Go, and it was my understanding that the replacement app Xfinity TV had different features and uses.

Is everyone using the new app trouble free after all the issues with TV Go?

I was experiencing the same issues as others on this thread trying to use the old app on a Sony Android TV. I'm hesitant to try the new app at the moment without feedback.

Edit: Just read some of the reviews on the Google Play store. 28% of the people gave it 1 star.

For all its problems, it seems like installing old versions of TV Go is actually the better answer.

It's also deemed by Google as incompatible which means problems are likely.

We can hope but answer only Samsung knows.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KarimSalloum:
Nothing's for sure yet, but I would say it's going to be 32 bit as well. I have my reasons which I wont bore you with right now. But the bottom line is, if you want a Snapdragon Note 4, don't let the distinct possibility of having a 64 bit device in the future alter your thinking process.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gowtham34:
What I would love is a 64 bit device from Samsung and my plan was for Galaxy S6.

But, I also need a device with removable battery as this can help me in recovering from most Custom Rom flash problems. And after seeing the latest Unibody leaks of S6, I have decided for Note 4 if this is going to be true since Note 5 will also be a unibody if S6 is.

Also, I dont rate the Samsung Battery to be as good as Apple and sure would cause battery drain problems in 2 years and I am not one who buy a new phone for every year.

Actually, I am still living with my Galaxy S1 and is nearly 4 years old right now. I would really appreciate if someone can upgrade my GS1 with latest hardware as it is already running Kitkat CM11 .. :D:D

hey guys i have one problem with supersu.

i installed clean master and do cleaning **** and startup cleaning things and after reboot all apps that have granted root permission( foldermount, gmd gestures, lightflow, etc), these apps shows no toast popup after boot and to make them grant permissions i have to open them. Same thing when i installed boot manager and did not do anything but boot and again no supersu toast popups about root permissions after boot.

is there a way to keep the root grants after the boot? ( i have checked default acces to grant in supersu app)

I'm having problems with clean master working with SuperSu too.

clean master is so powerfull that disables supersu permissions.

''enable supersu during boot''

please explain to me for what is this option

thx :good:
[SuperSU] dancapitan:
bump:D
[SuperSU] 3c:
This option has a summary that's pretty unclear. I've emailed the dev, hope to receive an answer soon. Fact is apps running during the boot_completed seem to get root randomly if this option is not enabled! Let me insist on the random fact, as my apps get root on boot frequently but not all the time. Other users have reported the same random behavior. Once the option is enabled everything works as expected!

However the option seem to imply that any root request on boot will be granted!? Regardless of user choice????

To make it short, check the option "enable supersu during boot" and root apps will receive root on boot as they used to!
[SuperSU] Chainfire:
You should turn this into a proper bug report in the proper thead (either the beta or its own new thread) with all the useful information you think may be relevant. There is no email support, all support is here.

The option itself is for apps that run before Android is fully up and running, or su from adb shell during a bootloop, etc. I thould not influence apps running su from bootcomplete receivers, and if it does, then that needs to be investigated.
[SuperSU] Noksucow1:
Is there currently any way to enable this feature via ADB on a boot looped phone? I really wish I would have known about this! I wouldn't be stuck where I'm at if I had only checked this option. Device is stuck at LG logo, no download or recovery, but has access to ADB. SU was installed, but I don't have root via ADB since the phone isn't finished booting...thus I'm not able to copy over the proper system.img or change the recovery/laf. Dang!
