Thanks for doing this dhacker29. I actually built my own fugu unofficial release about a week ago but it crashed way too much (I think it wasn't quite ready yet).

Anyway, the reason I'm posting is that it seems like the ARM binary translation code is not active (necessary for skype, and many other android apps). Is my assumption correct or am I missing something?
[Nexus Player Android Development] rishidhar:
Wondering why most apps just say "Not compatible with this device" in the play store when installation full gapps? Is there a way to make that work?
[Nexus Player Android Development] halfluck:
+1

I was going to ask the same question, lucky to find someone else already did :)

Cheers Rob.
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
Arm mode is working fine for me with Netflix and other apps.
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
You will probably have to edit the fingerprint in build prop to match an x86 tablet to get more apps to show
[Nexus Player Android Development] littlehoops:
Hello,

Thanks for all the hard work. I was wondering if there is a way to get the ... menu back on some apps, like the bbc iplayer.

Thanks

:)
[Nexus Player Android Development] thunderthumbs02:
I was wondering if this makes certain apps work that don't on the stock rom. Such as Amazon Instant Video or Xfinity TV?
[Nexus Player Android Development] xaudiblex:
Amazon Instant Video is working on my end after the newest update on stock rom. I have it working in conjunction with the tablet app. You have to sideload both apps but they definitely work.
[Nexus Player Android Development] pbanj:
does the amazon app work well with the remote?
[Nexus Player Android Development] xaudiblex:
Unfortunately no. It is the tablet app so You have to use a mouse to get around. I would be surprised if amazon ever released a remote functional version for a non-Amazon TV device.
[Nexus Player Android Development] pbanj:
damn, maybe the addon for kodi will get fixed to work better in the us
[Nexus Player Android Development] thunderthumbs02:
What issues do you have with the kodi addon?
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
There might be a way to do it by editing the keymap file but I couldn't tell you which one it is unless it literally says nexus player remote. You can remap it easily on Kodi specifically and I'm sure there is a way for android itself.

I haven't tried Skype but my guess is if it didn't work with the Google Camera either it probably won't work with anything but I'm going to log cat it when I get home in a bit. I don't use Skype so I have no one to test it with. Be sure to report back if you were able to get it to work.
[Nexus Player Android Development] danigraham:
I am asking because Skype works on Lollirock but Hangouts does not. I still haven't made the jump to CM. Our server crashed (and we lost the key ?) the other day so we are too busy rebuilding that to try CM yet. But definitely coming soon.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
The Lolirock dev told me Hangouts does work on his rom but I've never tried it myself.

Than you guys I'll look and edit away!

I just changed key 217 to RECENTS and changed permissions, but the voice search still pops up when I press the button, is it a diffrent name?
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
View attachment 3323863 Skype from phone to nexus player no issues. Camera is a different story.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
So Skype works but not hangouts for some reason weird. It would be good if it works for Hangouts and other apps I wonder why it works on Skype but not hangouts. Does it not recognize it as a normal camera?
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
Still in the early stages in thing at a time lol
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
With each step we are closer to our goal ☺ I know it takes a lot of time and patients I used to test Roms for a Dev I helped make the first ICS ROM for the HTC thunderbolt by testing it. Hours of flashing just hoping it would even boot and have working touch. Anyways keep up the great work. I'm amazed at how quickly you've gotten things working in such a short time.
[Nexus Player Android Development] C--Mon:
Hi Folks, great ROM so far, I realy love it :good:

Big THX to dhacker29!

I just want to ask you guys, if there is any way to download the latest CM-nightlys without connecting a Mouse to the NP?

Cause for now I can't select the download button for updates just with the remote. Neither in the leanback Settings, nore in the "real" Android Settings. :rolleyes:

Or is it possible and I just missed something?

THX in advance
[Nexus Player Android Development] scoobaspeaz:
I have not yet tried the cm updater BUT if you dont have a keyboard/mouse you do have some options.

1. go into settings > developer options

2. enable "ADB over network"

3. visit http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=fugu and download the latest nightly

4. adb connect ip.address.of.np

5. adb push cm-file-you-got.zip /sdcard/

6. adb reboot recovery

7. install the update

8. cross fingers hope it boots...it is a nightly after all :D

--

Second option is use es file manager and copy it over that way. You will still need to reboot into recovery to flash it...the first option is the best way.
[Nexus Player Android Development] C--Mon:
Thx for your reply!

To make things clear, I have no real problem with updating the ROM. ;)

For now I just use my Bluetooth Mouse or my Smartphone in combination with DroidMote.

But these update methods quite a bit "uncomfortable" and I want to mention it, that its's for now not possible to update only with the Remote available ;)
[Nexus Player Android Development] Ambious:
I'm personally a big fan of "ADB over Network" but it's turned off by default and has to be manually started after every restart.

Is it possible to make it start automatically?
[Nexus Player Android Development] gdsbalaji:
Use adb wireless app, set ssid in, whitelist, turn auto enable in settings.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
Yeah I wish ADB over network worked in recovery but unless I'm mistaken it doesn't and probably never will. The other option would be to have an app that works with the recovery and flashes .zips for you I tried one a while back and it wouldn't work because the location it was trying to flash the zip from was wrong so it failed.
[Nexus Player Android Development] sprinter93:
NexusPlayer-kodi-keymap-streaming-fix-signed.zip

Does this need to be reflashed after updating with the nightlies or will it "stick"? Sorry if this has already been asked.
[Nexus Player Android Development] insanedrunk:
I think APP_SWITCH is recents right, I'll try again after work
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
No it doesn't because that file is kept on the storage partition in the android folder.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Wyldfire:
Audio FX App

I was trying to use the AudioFX app and noticed something- it does not seem to hold it's settings. When I exit it and go to another app, the sound seems no different, and wwhen I go back to it, the app is reset to it's default "Headphones/Flat" settings. Anyone have an idea what's happening here? I know we're still in testing- not even really worried about it, but thought it might be nice for the developers to know about it.

Thanks for all the work!

Leif
[Nexus Player Android Development] insanedrunk:
Definite no go, this rom with lean back gapps won't pull up recents menu.
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
There is no received menu unless you are in trebuchet and not leanback launcher
[Nexus Player Android Development] insanedrunk:
Tried both, and nova. I just want to kill slots in the background that are persistent like some games won't close, when I run kodi and the apps and games are running live tv stutters until I reboot.
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
Pretty sure the search key is intercepted by the remote control service so that's probably why
[Nexus Player Android Development] insanedrunk:
That stinks, I'll look into task switching apps. Thanks for the help guys.
[Nexus Player Android Development] seniorstew:
Anyone having issues getting Netflix to work on the leanback Launcher? Whenever I try to play something it says "unable to play this title right now" same thing when I try and cast from my phone ?
[Nexus Player Android Development] scoobaspeaz:
I am using Netflix right now with no issues.
[Nexus Player Android Development] insanedrunk:
I can play videos and cast videos without a problem. I used leanback gapps
[Nexus Player Android Development] sean14760:
google nexus player controller

is there a way to modify faketouch so that the google nexus players dpad behaves more like the mouse when interfacing with applications. It seems a lot of the apps whether they say they are supported or not seem to work fine on the google nexus player with a mouse but not so well when trying to navigate the apps with the controller. Thanks in advance for anyone who has some insight or even better a possible solution.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
I highly recommend getting the app DroidMote for your smartphone or tablet.
[Nexus Player Android Development] bigbendroid:
Netflix

I am having that same problem. I am not sure when it started. I know it was working. I don't ise Netflix very often, I tried it today and it can't load the movies.
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
Updated leanback Gapps in OP with Korean keyboard and Google WebView
[Nexus Player Android Development] Asadullah:
I don't know if I'm understanding this right but if you flash the leanback gapps then recent apps doesn't work ? But regular gapps no problem
[Nexus Player Android Development] lostdata:
Thanks for this, I'm running into some problems though, I tried to adb sidload and I get error:closed, I also tried to copy to the internal memory in /0/ and /sdcard/Download/ but cant seem to find anything, is there a spot i should copy the file too?

Thanks!
[Nexus Player Android Development] Ambious:
Sending the file via ADB to internal memory seems to not work at all for anyone (not sure why, must be a mounting thing).

As for "adb sideload", make SURE your ADB is version 1.0.32 and not 1.0.31 (which is most common, and doesn't work with sideload).

Verify by using "adb version".
[Nexus Player Android Development] treydogg:
yup, I'm on 1.0.32 and it fails half way through the adb sideload
[Nexus Player Android Development] Ambious:
No idea then :-| Try a different cable?
[Nexus Player Android Development] insanedrunk:
The only way to find out is to try it, I did it a few days ago, bit can't remember if I was on lollirock or standard gapps on cm12
[Nexus Player Android Development] upichie:
Just tried flashing the latest nightly (05/23) and I'm getting "signature verification failed". Is there a fix for this?
[Nexus Player Android Development] tjsooley:
I flashed it fine
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
Are you sure you have cm recovery and not stock recovery?
[Nexus Player Android Development] upichie:
I flashed the recovery image from the OP via fastboot, but I'm thinking it may not have stuck since the recovery options were very limited (there was no flash zip option).

Now that I know that's the problem I'll give it another try tomorrow. Thank you!
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
Anytime you boot stock it resets recovery
[Nexus Player Android Development] danigraham:
Finally made the switch from Lollirock to CM today! Yay! ?

When I got home from work my husband ( [MENTION=3710929]treydogg[/MENTION] ) had it all set up and ready ? Haven't messed with much, yet. But so far we love it.

One thing that is really bothersome...

Playstore apps. On Lollirock, we could download all kinds of apps with little to no restrictions about it being made for a phone/tablet. Now when we search in playstore most apps we used on LR won't even bring a search result. If there's a way we can override this, please let us know.

We tried editing the build.prop for the model (to Nexus S) and manufacturer (to Samsung) with no luck. Also, tried Market Helper, but it crashes.

Any advice is much appreciated.

We may have to go back to Lollirock if we cannot figure this out.

And much thanks to [MENTION=1555922]dhacker[/MENTION] for the ROM!!!
[Nexus Player Android Development] insanedrunk:
If you install the full android gapps you can get access to full play store, with the lean back package, you only get access to the android t.v.apps in the play store.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Cuzz1369:
Not asking you specifically just quoting your post as reference, but if anyone knows why this is maybe we can try to find a way around it. Lean back stuff with a full playstore is one of the main things still holding back this device
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
The leanback version of the play store filters based on availability of the banner, touchscreen not a required feature, camera not a required feature and others.
[Nexus Player Android Development] danigraham:
We were on full gapps. We downloaded full android gapps, multiple files. And then tried multiple leanback gapps files, and we kept getting errors in the recovery.

For now, we have gone back to Lollirock 2.1 but I am still following the thread and reading everyday, and if/when we can get full playstore, we will be back. ??
[Nexus Player Android Development] insanedrunk:
When used the full gapps I was able to download say Netflix for example, in phone/tablet mode in the full store, I wasn't able to use the remote on it, same with other lean back apps. I tried flashing both gapps, only 6 apps got optimized on initial start up, one being vendor, I thought I'd be able to use both stores.
[Nexus Player Android Development] nunyabiznas:
its probably your screen density that causes full gapps not to have all apps.

you could try luckypatcher. it has a playstore patch.

---------- Post added at 04:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:53 PM ----------

thats the problem. you dont get full playstore access with full gapps. only 50 percent at best. im thinking its the density causing this.
[Nexus Player Android Development] insanedrunk:
You must be right, I remember installing a game called sunburn, it was the wrong dpi, and king if fighters too.
[Nexus Player Android Development] seniorstew:
Ughh this Netflix thing is driving my crazy! I side loaded the Netflix apk from the original firmware and signed out of all my devices and it's still not playing.. Anyone fix it yet?
[Nexus Player Android Development] danigraham:
Could you tell me how to fix the density? I am not familiar with resetting this. I do use lucky patcher though.

*EDIT*

Okay so, I went to Lucky Patcher on my phone just to see of I could find it myself. I chose custom patch, and there are some DPI selections. We are running Lollirock right now so I can't test it right away but tonight definitely.

Tell me this though, what DPI should I set playstore to on the Nexus Player?
[Nexus Player Android Development] bigbendroid:
I don't know if this helps you or not but I fixed my Netflix issue by government b&g to Aptoid and download an older version. Ver 3.12.1 and it is working although you need a mouse and to sing in you have to go to start free section and then sign in or it crashes. But also far I am able to watch Netflix again until the issue is resolved.

---------- Post added at 05:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:13 AM ----------

I don't know how to edit a post but I did that from my phone and instead of government it should say going to Aptoid.
[Nexus Player Android Development] jameyc:
At least with full gapps, the CM12.1 rom has a density selector built in that allows you to adjust it from it's default 240 up to 280, and can confirm this does not get the play store showing all apps. I haven't tried a higher dpi - not gonna risk my google account with luckypatcher, and too lazy to use other methods. I've got a few testing phones with dpi's around 250 though, all of which saw more apps in the play store than the Nexus player on cm12.1 when set to 280.

I've also tried editing the build.prop, setting ro.build.characteristics to tablet, with no luck. Going farther, I've used some of the strings form Lollirock's build.prop, such as "ro.product.name=full_fugu", "ro.build.fingerprint=Android/full_fugu/fugu:5.1.1/LMY47V/cloudproject05011142:user/release-keys", "ro.product.brand=Android", and "ro.product.brand=Android". (I'm aware most of these shouldn't be being used to ID the devices by the Play Store, but wanted to make sure.) Wiped the dalvik cache, cleared the Play Store's saved data, but still getting the sparse list of apps within the Play Store.

It's not a huge annoyance for me, as I've already sideloaded most of the apps I use on a regular basis. Unless you frequently are installing/uninstalling apps on the Nexus Player, you'll probably fall into that same boat as well, which softens the blow of not having the full play store access. I miss the fuller play store of Lollirock, but enjoy the extra features CM brings to the table too much to switch back now. :)

Hopefully this helps eliminate a few variables for you to try out, though.

Anyone else's nexus fall into deep sleep and won't wake up?
[Nexus Player Android Development] WhiteWidows:
Yeah sometimes its locked up when I turn my TV on and have to pull the power

[MENTION=4112553]dhacker29[/MENTION] is there any possibility you can look into getting mpeg2 hardware decoding working for the stock player? When I try to stream from my hdhomerun prime using the live TV app it won't work. Sometimes just get sound or tune in failed. The HD homerun app software decodes and cannot enable mpeg2 hw decoding.

I'm still baffled why Google didn't do this despite claiming it can be used for live TV.....not to mention DTS and AC3 multichannel pass through.
[Nexus Player Android Development] dhacker29:
Odd never had a lock up sometimes I have to push the remote twice to wake up but that's it
[Nexus Player Android Development] bgiesing:
No matter what I do, I can't get the status and navigation bars to show. I wiped fresh and installed the full GApps and it still doesn't show.
[Nexus Player Android Development] insanedrunk:
I tried going into settings, daydream, and setting it to a longer time, didn't work, I went into developer settings and ticked the start aware, never sleep Setting see if it helps, I'll try keep awake while charging next.
[Nexus Player Android Development] lRawd:
I had the same issue with Netflix on the stock rom at one point. The only thing that fixed it for me was clear Netflix data and reboot.
[Nexus Player Android Development] darksabre_x:
I was getting an AIP-7xx error when I originally tried out Netflix on CM12. Had you originally tried it on Stock with no issues?

For me the fix was to flash back to stock, wipe everything (And I do mean EVERYTHING, I'm pretty sure I went in and deleted everything at least twice.) and then fresh installed CM12. I think I used both the stock recovery and CMRecovery to wipe all the internal storage partitions, including the internal "sd card" storage.

I think it was originally caused by some old Netflix files left from stock that never got deleted, and somehow causes the current install to fail on playing or casting.

Go ahead and give it a try and report back. I've been waiting to see if this works for anybody else.
[Nexus Player Android Development] insanedrunk:
Stay awake worked for me, hasn't gone into deep unwakeable sleep mode.
[Nexus Player Android Development] seniorstew:
Wiped it clean, installed stock, wiped again, installed cm12 and now it says "this version of Netflix is not supported by your device" fine, installed and Reverted to the stock one that came with the stock rom.. Still says can't play this title.. [emoji20] [emoji12] [emoji23] [emoji35] I'm going bat **** crazy here lol
[Nexus Player Android Development] darksabre_x:
Sounds like you've got some other issues going on as well. Was the Netflix version installed to CM12 the one from the store? And are you using the leanback Gapps? (Only ask because the not supported thing is weird. I never saw that.)

Did you try wiping with both CM recovery and the stock recovery? I'm not sure which one did it for me. Sorry it's not working for you. Wish I could offer some other suggestions, but it looks like you're getting errors I never saw. As soon as I went back to stock it began working, and then it kept working after I full wiped it and reinstalled CM12.
[Nexus Player Android Development] seniorstew:
The one from the store. I did full wipes using stock and cm recovery.. And it does work on stock.. Its the weirdest thing..
[Nexus Player Android Development] xazac:
Hello,

I have a Nexus Player with Stock ROM. Why should I use CM-12.1 instead of the original ROM?

Thank you.
[Nexus Player Android Development] Ambious:
In the new nightlies, as soon as I connect my remote keyboard/airmouse (Minix Neo A2) the sound stops working.

I suspect it may detect it as a sound output device (since it does have a microphone and speaker) but there's no way to manually select it to output sound to HDMI instead of USB so I'm stuck not being able to use it.

Is there any way around it? Can output sound source be selected?
[Nexus Player Android Development] bigbendroid:
Netflix

Since yesterday's update Netflix now says it is not compatible with my device. Netflix has not loaded for sometime now. I'm also not able to use google cast since switching to the rom, except for youtube. And you know the microphone does not work. I did a wipe before the install and am using the lean back gapps. I have updated everytime a new nightly comes out. I may go back to stock. And watch the development. I am thankful for all the hard work. I love custom Roms, but my features are becoming more limited. I am confident that CM will be the best ROM very soon though.
