I have 5 Firesticks and all are working except the one I just bought. Everything that was logged in before is working. I loaded the version 8 but having no side menu is a pita. Hopefully the brilliant minds here can get that working. 👍

I installed Rogers Ignite v6.19.2 on my Firestick quite some time ago & it's still working fine to this day.

Never been prompted for a forced update to this point in time. Pretty sure I used the Silk browser to login at the time. Never saw the need to update the version, since everything just works as it should!
[Android Apps and Games] fortesquieu:
@ytsejam1138 thank you again for all your hard work!
[Android Apps and Games] peanutbutternish:
I'm getting the same issue

Same issue as you, newer version works but not the old one. I noticed that the login screen that you're sent to through the old/modded version is different than the login screen you get through the new version. Maybe Rogers has deprecated that old way of logging in of something?

I'm a latecomer to this 111 page thread an am confused. Is there a version that I can sideload and run on my Android TV dongle?
[Android Apps and Games] ytsejam1138:
Yep, as long as you have Xfinity you can use the first one or the FireTV version.
[Android Apps and Games] kmandel:
I used "Send Files to TV". I told it to install which succeeded , and run. It authorized and it ran perfectly. However, when I went back to Home there is no sign of the app in any of the GUI options that show installed apps. What am I missing?
[Android Apps and Games] ytsejam1138:
You also need to install the appropriate ICON APK to get the shortcut.
[Android Apps and Games] kmandel:
Many thanks, that did it!

Anybody seeing out-of-sync audio on FireTV 8.3.1.4? Audio is ahead of video by about 1 second. It happens with live TV and recordings. I had to downgrade to 8.1.0.12 to fix it.

I'm using this on an "unsupported" Sony Bravia.
[Android Apps and Games] jimosman:
As of March 17, 2024 IGNITE TV MODDED 7.4.2.3 (Rogers) (LAST FULLY WORKING VERSION with Spyglass is not working on Amazon FireStick. I tried to reinstall, with no success. The reason is that now Rogers is requiring secure log in. So when you normally log into Ignite Tv with your email address, Rogers asks to send you a verification text code to your cell phone or you can receive by email as well. You need this code to validate your log in. If you install Ignite TV TEST 8.1.1.9 (REPORTED PARTIALLY WORKING - NO GUIDE OR SIDE MENU), this will install but there is no functionallity for the Amazon FireStick. I am not able to navigate or chose any channels.
[Android Apps and Games] JodyAmblard:
Sadly, as at March 24, on Nvidia Shield IGNITE TV MODDED 7.4.2.3 (Rogers) (LAST FULLY WORKING VERSION with Spyglass) still does not invoke a second log in verification screen like IGNITE TV MODDED 8.1.1.9 (Rogers - Early Access) and Ignite TV TEST 8.1.1.9 both do.

My thanks to all who contribute, though. It's such a worthy project.
[Android Apps and Games] maxxum57:
Nothing but a cash grab from Rogers, they want to make sure that they get another $10/month from you if you want to watch TV on other screens. Rogers really SUCKS! Hopefully one of the smart people here will find a solution to this soon...

Fortunately for me, I installed Rogers Ignite v6.19.2 on my Firestick quite some time ago & it's still working fine to this day. Never been prompted for a forced update yet and haven't had to log out on that device, so I'm still enjoying it while it lasts...
[Android Apps and Games] Robodude64:
I'm in the exact same boat. 4 firesticks fully functional on old software and 1 that I can't log in to Roger's now. The guys that have been doing this work are amazing and have asked for nothing. They need to provide a link for us to buy them a cup of coffee for their efforts! Cheers guys!
[Android Apps and Games] jimosman:
Rogers should be providing this software for free to run on the Amazon Firestick, as we are still paying for the tv services. If you complain to the CTRC, they will not help. They will say that you are running third party software.
[Android Apps and Games] Robodude64:
Agreed! This is the only thing that Bell does better than Rogers. Rogers needs to wake up on this one. If my Firesticks quit working I will cancel their service.
[Android Apps and Games] Sparro:
I'm in the same boat where I want to run the Ignite TV app on my Google TV with chromecast dongle so I don't have to pay for another box in our bedroom TV but all of the above versions don't work. Rogers or ROBBERS are such scam artists it isn't funny. Bell provides an app and the Ignite service is licensed from Comcast Xfinity and they provide an app. So ridicules!
[Android Apps and Games] jimosman:
Phone up Rogers and complain. Tell them that Bell supports the chromecast dongle and they should. If they do not, then say you are leaving them and going to Bell.
[Android Apps and Games] Sparro:
I would do that in a heartbeat if I could. In my rural neighborhood Rogers is the only hi-speed option. Bell is not available.
[Android Apps and Games] Rustyman416:
When I try and install the Icon APK, Google TV complains that it was built for an older version of Android and doesn’t adhere to updated privacy settings (it’s a Google Play Protect) pop up. It then blocks the install.

I can still use the side load app to launch it but would be easier just to click the icon along with the other apps.

Any idea how I can fix this? I’ve triple checked that I used the right icon APK listed above (deleted and reuploaded APK to my file sharing app).

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] j3ffster:
I experienced this issue too on Shield TV and what helped was to go to the Play Store, select your icon (top right for me), Play Protect and uncheck Scan Apps with Play Protect. I was able to install the icon afterwards. Hopefully that works for you.

Also wanted to say thank you to the devs for hard work on this. I've been trying to find ways to get the Rogers app for a really long time and eventually found this forum.
[Android Apps and Games] mike2246:
top link not working
[Android Apps and Games] ytsejam1138:
Just checked, it worked fine for me. Do you have a pop-up blocker installed or something? Do any of the other links work for you?
[Android Apps and Games] mike2246:
Thanks, DNS Blocker was it.
[Android Apps and Games] HAMMERGOD91:
long time lurker on this forum post. first time posting. thank you for all the work that goes into making this a reality for many of us.

i have a nvidia shield pro and the latest xfinity stream release is has been wonky since the initial release. when I attempt to watch a recorded show or a live channel by pressing 'watch', the channel will load for a second but then just refresh back to the episode page with the 'watch, record & info buttons'. this happens every time. not sure what i need to do to get this working properly. every prior release has been working without issue. If you need logs or something similar, please inform me on how to provide any supporting information.

thank you for your time.
[Android Apps and Games] ytsejam1138:
I had this problem on an Onn Android TV Box. It was driving me crazy. Mine only does this when trying to watch Live TV, recorded shows work fine. My solution was to disconnect the Bluetooth Speakers when using the Xfinity TV app to watch Live TV.
[Android Apps and Games] HAMMERGOD91:
thank you for the prompt reply. i don't use bluetooth speakers. in any case, i appreciate your assistance. I went ahead and did a factory reset, installed the xfinity app w/ the shortcut and all is well in the world again. i would've spent more time troubleshooting but wanted to get this resolved before the nba playoffs start this morning. (^_^)
[Android Apps and Games] JodyAmblard:
Hello Folks,

On page 111, ytsejam1138 kindly moved several APK's to a new repository, with thanks.

The one for Rogers IGNITE TV works absolutely perfectly with a new elegant Login verification interface.

I'm on an Nvidia Shield. Worked like a charm.

Anybody get this working on a Chromecast with GoogleTV yet?
[Android Apps and Games] JodyAmblard:

May I mention that the APK below

doesn't yet implement Rogers recording deletion on an Nvidia Shield

It does, however provide for setting and scheduling a recording.

A very small inconvenience; but perhaps worthy of note.

[Android Apps and Games] JodyAmblard:

The Google browser works fine.

I've also used Puffin and the Amazon one. They're all good.

[Android Apps and Games] KAPABLE-K:
Does the new Rogers app install over the old version and keep you logged in or do you have to start fresh and log in again?
[Android Apps and Games] JodyAmblard:
Hey Kapable-K,

I did a clean installation of the new APK, so I'm not sure if it would update a previous one.

The new log-in is a thing of beauty, I must say.

Updating might be worth a try, though if you think there might be more functionality in the old one.

I must say that the new one is quite complete, and great to use.

Do let me know your findings.

Best, jody
[Android Apps and Games] jimosman:
I always uninstall the old app. I prefer installing a new version.
[Android Apps and Games] Alfonze33:
Can confirm that it works perfectly. Uninstalled old version, installed the Early release. The app gave me a pin to enter on the Rogers site (from any PC or phone) which activated the CCwGTV device as any other compatible device. Side menu works and shouldn't ask for login every couple of days now.

Thank you to everybody involved.
[Android Apps and Games] maxxum57:
That's awesome! Thanks for sharing your experience installing it on Chromecast.

Can you tell me which browser worked for you? Thanks!

Thanks to all the smart people here that made this possible...
[Android Apps and Games] Alfonze33:
I didn't have to use a browser on the Chromecast now, previously I was using Open Browser to login properly. I entered the PIN given from the Ignite app on first startup on my PC logged in to Rogers (you'll be given the link) and once entered, the Ignite app on the Chromecast automatically activated. Hope it works for you too
[Android Apps and Games] k. chanslor:
I have Chromecast and I just used the downloader app. I typed in this exact URL and then scrolled to the FIRETV APK and just installed it and it asked if wanted to update (had previous ver APK installed) and hit yes and then did same with the icon... Worked just fine. U might need to go to developer mode and enable install unknown...
[Android Apps and Games] k. chanslor:

Hey Everyone...so glad that this thread is continuing on!

One question I had, for those still using; IGNITE TV (SHAW) MODDED 8.2.1.17

Is anyone else getting an error after hitting play that talks about screen sharing not being allowed? I'm using my Nvidia Shield and I continually get this error. If so, how do we fix that?!
[Android Apps and Games] maxxum57:
Finally got around to installing the latest working Ignite APK and must say that the process worked flawlessly.

The login/verification process is so much easier now that you don't have to fiddle around with various browsers.

Thanks to the smart people here that made this all possible ... you guys rock!
[Android Apps and Games] trafsta:
Anyone else having trouble authenticating with the latest release for Rogers that uses the new www.rogers.com/activate method for signin? I get an error message on the Rogers activation site stating "Sorry, we're having a technical issue. We're working on a fix. Please try again soon". If I hit the "Try Again" button it then shows me a window to enter the 6-digit code but the code never works on this page for me. I've tried from different browsers on different devices and have no issue logging into my Rogers account on those devices but the subsequent activation window throws the above error.

Using the older .apk with the old login method worked fine for 6+ months on my other Chromecast with Google TV and FireTV boxes, but one of my Chromecast with Google TV's has updated to a newer OS version and so I was forced to this newer Rogers Ignite .apk with this newer authentication method... I would love this new, potentially easier method, if only it worked for me lol.

If anyone has any suggestions or can confirm they can authenticate/activate with www.rogers.com/activate in the last 24 hours I would appreciate it. If it's just me then I have some work to do figuring this one out!
[Android Apps and Games] maxxum57:
Worked fine a couple weeks ago when I updated my 2 chromecasts to the latest working version. But I just tried installing it on my Android TV and I'm now having the same issues that you are having :(

Will not activate on Rogers site for the time being.

Don't know if they're actually working on a fix or if they've found a way to no longer validate "unsupported" devices. Only time will tell I guess.
[Android Apps and Games] jimosman:
IGNITE TV MODDED 8.1.1.9 (Rogers - Early Access) on Amazon Fire Stick is still working as of May 26,2024
[Android Apps and Games] trafsta:
Thanks for checking! Still seems to be down today also. Hopefully they get it fixed in the next week or two! lol
[Android Apps and Games] maxxum57:
Was that for a NEW install? All the ones I had previously installed are still working for me as well. But the NEW install I attempted a couple days ago FAILED at the validate stage just like trafsta posted about earlier...
[Android Apps and Games] jimosman:
Not for a new install. The version for Amazon Firestick for Rogers is still working.
[Android Apps and Games] trafsta:
It might be working now, I don't get an error when going to www.rogers.com/activate anymore. I am out of town for the next 8 days though so I cannot test it out on the actual device... but @maxxum57 you can probably try it again and get through it this time from what I can see as Rogers may have fixed the activation at their end.
[Android Apps and Games] maxxum57:
Just tried it again, and indeed it does now work again and validated my Android TV install flawlessly. Good to know Rogers wasn't actively working on ways to block "unsupported" devices. Thanks for keeping us informed trafsta.
[Android Apps and Games] gdawg1950:
I have not been able to solve this problem.

Clean installed and activated Xfinity Stream BETA MODDED 8.3.1.3 on an Amlogic 905x4 Android TV Box. The controls for guide and settings were on the bottom of the screen worked great. A few days later the controls were on the left of the screen and I could not access them.

Several clean installs of both the BS and PT versions same result.

I reinstalled Xfinity Stream BETA MODDED 7.6.0.5 controls are on the left and work as before.

Does anyone have a clue about why this is happening?

I would like to run the 8.3.1.3 version.

Also other than activation method what is the difference between the BS and PT version?
[Android Apps and Games] ytsejam1138:
BS is for Box or Stick running Android TV. PT is for a phone or tablet. Xfinity made some changes a few builds ago, which required having to different versions to access all the menus. If neither of these are working for you, I'd try the FIRE TV version.
[Android Apps and Games] huntre2k:
Hi! I'm struggling here, have not read through all 345 pages. I'm trying to figure out how to get the Xfinity Stream app on my Nvidia Shield Pro. I'm guessing I need to sideload it, but does anyone have simplified instructions on how to do that and where to find the source APK? Oh - and what is ROgers IGNITE TV? :D
[Android Apps and Games] JodyAmblard:
Hi Hunter2K,

Rogers Ignite TV is a version of the Xfinity TV interface intended for subscribers to Rogers Cable TV in Canada.

Same goes for the "Shaw" APK. It's intended for Shaw Cable TV subscribers.

These are all similar to the Xfinity interface - developed and licensed to these cable companies by Xfinity and Comcast.

You'll find a couple of Xfinity APK's almost at the top of page 112 developed by ytsejam1138 and the good folks in this forum and lately moved to a new repository , with thanks. They're in blue - just click to download them on your PC.

I'm not sure which one would be most appropriate for your Shield, but I bet the "box" one is probably it - probably has an Android TV interface, not a "phone" interface.

Download them both to your PC and then Try 'em both on your Shield.

The way I "sideload" to my Shield is I gave it access to folders on my PC so I just transfer the APK to my Shield's storage, then use a file explorer app to find it, and then launch it.

But if your Shield doesn't have the ability to easily access files on your PC,

you could just put the APK ('s) from your PC on a USB, then plug in the the USB into your shield.

(Probably best if these are the only two files on the USB)

Then on your Shield use the "file explorer" of your choice to locate the USB and navigate to the APK.

(I use "X-Plore" that I installed on my Shield directly from the Google Play store, available on your Shield as a built-in app).

Once you launch X-plore, it takes a minute to get used to the interface. Then navigate to or locate your USB and find the APK's

Click on and Launch the Xfinity APK to install.

You may have to set the Shield's permissions to permit access to APK's from outside sources. You'll get a prompt. Say yes.

We all faced different log on interfaces that were specific to our cable companies: passwords, usernames, etc.

so have them ready.

Let us know how it goes.

Best, Jody
