The following combination of files will enable the BT Sport app.

https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...unt-manager-5-1-1743759-android-apk-download/

https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...s-framework-5-1-1743759-android-apk-download/

https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl.../google-play-store-android-tv-8-0-28-release/

https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...s-11-9-51-230-177350961-android-apk-download/

https://apkpure.com/bt-sport/com.bt.btsport

For the above files, version 4.12.1 of bt sport will work. This may help with other Google service dependent apps.

If you get a black screen then you may have to reboot and reload the app, if it doesn't work try this a few times. Use the cetusplay app on your smartphone to control the BT app. Google Play will not open, this is only to get the BT Sport app working.
[Fire TV General] CC_123:
didn't work

I followed your instructions and it said google play store was successfully installed, but when I try to open the app I need it for it now says:

"... won't run without google play services, which are missing from your device"

It gives me option to install, but when I click it nothing happens.

nm I found comment above that gives more instructions for BT sport app

[Fire TV General] CC_123:
Finally got the BT Sports app to work on my fire stick thanks to this, but I can't select anything to watch with the remote!!

Do you know how to fix this??

Cheers :)
[Fire TV General] pedro1977:
Install Cletus Play on your phone. Set it to mouse mode.

Hey guys, received my new Firestick HD for Christmas and went about installing Google Play with this guide:

http://homemediaportal.com/install-google-play-store-amazon-fire-stick-fire-tv/

However, when I try to launch Google Play, I get "Error retrieving information from server. [RH-01]"

Have tried forcing a stop, clearing cache/data to no avail. Can't seem to locate a solution on line that is specific to this device? Should I uninstall Framework and Play and try reinstalling those two?
[Fire TV General] pedro1977:
Google play will not open. Install the two files again from my links above.
[Fire TV General] pbcsd:
Sorry.. I see 4 files (the 5th is the BT Sports one).

Do I install all 4 in order using Downloader or ESFile Explorer?

Also can't figure out why when I go to say apkmonk or whatever website using Downloader and click download nothing seems to happen.

---------- Post added at 12:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:54 AM ----------

Btw.. I reset the device to defaults to start from scratch so lmk if I need to install all 4 files above in that order versus 2...once I figure out how to install them!
[Fire TV General] pedro1977:
You can download them to your android phone, send them to your fire stick with apps2fire app then use one of the apps you mention to install all 5 of them in any order, a restart maybe necessary afterwards. Use Cetus play app on your phone to control the BT app.
[Fire TV General] VarelaPet:
Hi there, this is a Spanish user. Does anybody know if this solution works with the HBO Nordic app? Thanks in advance.
[Fire TV General] pedro1977:
Try it
[Fire TV General] VarelaPet:
Tried it. The older versions just tell you that they are old and that you have to use a modern version of HBO Nordic and from v3.0.0 onwards, the application starts but when you log in it throws you back to the Fire Stick's main menu. Can you think of any solution? Thanks in advance.
[Fire TV General] pedro1977:
Could be the DPI of the app is incorrect, see if there are other variants. You could also try different versions of google play services too.
[Fire TV General] zakkento:
Browser problem

Hi, i cant download the apk. Im using firefox browser (with java enabled) but when i click on download apk nothing happens. Can you suggest me some valid browser?
[Fire TV General] joe7dust:
Any way to get android pay working on 3rd generation running fireos 6? I can't use the service at all because they detected the custom rom on my phone and I lost my tablet... :/

I sideloaded the app and play services also but it still says my device can't run play services.
[Fire TV General] htchd2fix:
just a question:

the playstore and playservices don't need to be compatible with OS?

I mean if Fire devices run android 5.2 you can't install playstore for android 6 or 7 or 8.....correct?

I have installed the one from the original thread via adb and i don't have problems

(except the usual problem for the apps that require touchscreen code the fire remote wont work)
[Fire TV General] pedro1977:
That's correct and use cetusplay. See my links above for compatible versions
[Fire TV General] htchd2fix:
here is the guide from playservice app

looks like we should use the"238" versions
[Fire TV General] pedro1977:
You could try the most recent version of the one I listed above. Sometimes you have to wait as beta version arnt released for all variants.
[Fire TV General] :
Hi there having trouble setting up bt sport app on fire TV (3rd gen) with fire os 6, seen the comment on page 3 with the 5 links but not sure if that setup was for firesticks on the previous OS, however, tried installing the latest version of the app itself, Google play store, the account manager and two services apps, have absolutely no luck, all running the latest version of their app, either the bt app goes black, tells me I need to update Google play services, or tells me I need to install it to begin with, any help at all would be appreciated as I'm completely stumped and clearly not the best at this
[Fire TV General] pedro1977:
Try the links above and the version of BT sport that is referenced and let us know either way.
[Fire TV General] :
Tried it just there, all links installed fine except from Google Service framework, which when I tried to install it said "the package appears to be corrupt." And the bt sport is on a black screen
[Fire TV General] pedro1977:
If its on a black screen usually you have to reboot it and try and load it again, may take a few reboots. If the package is corrupt you may have to download it again, sounds like its working k, so try and reboot a few times first.
[Fire TV General] :
I downloaded the service framework apk a couple times and also tried using a different source for the apk, both give me the same corrupt message, I hadn't realised you may just have to reboot a few times because of the black screen I just assumed it wasn't working, I will try reboot with the other method that gave me a black screen
[Fire TV General] pedro1977:
If it still doesn't work after rebooting a few times, uninstall the current google services before installing another.
[Fire TV General] joe7dust:
Has ANYONE gotten android pay working on 3rd generation?
[Fire TV General] :
Haven't been able to get either of the methods that have taken me to a black screen to work after a few restarts, seems weird, will give the third page suggestion another go tomorrow, not hopeful at this point but seems like my only chance
[Fire TV General] Y314K:
How about 230 for NoDPI. Since most apps out there on PureApk or ApkMirror are NoDPI. Has anybody tried that.
[Fire TV General] newbyp:
Hi I have tried various methods of sideloading the 4 or 2 files and cannot get the play store installed on my 3rd generation fire sticks. Hopefully someone finds a resolution and posts it here. Thank you for your support and advice.

Paul
[Fire TV General] pedro1977:
Play store will not open/ work, its only installed to enable others apps to work I.e. BT sport.
[Fire TV General] joe7dust:
Still No Replies?
[Fire TV General] Warrior1988:
Android pay needs more than apks to work same with getting play store fully working. You would need framework and libs also I believe Amazon firestick doesn't even have the host file setup to work with google. So you need root to really make it fully working.
[Fire TV General] ldeveraux:
I'm still trying to figure out how anyone would even use Android Pay on a FireTV...
[Fire TV General] joe7dust:
Well I wasn't going to use it for something specific to the ftv, its just that when I try to install android pay on my phone i get a warning that my phone has root/custom rom detected so I can't use the app at all. I want to sign up and set up the android pay app on my firetv to pay for something else snce the ftv isn't rooted or running a custom rom.
[Fire TV General] sajidmib11:
for me it doesnt launch the app that needs google services to load, the app just quits I am trying to launch STAN and FOXTEL NOW in australia..
[Fire TV General] the great potato:
Wow so easy and worked great !! thank you i can watch my local news again with out switching over to my roku box !! and the quality and playback is wayyy better than the roku THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!
[Fire TV General] sajidmib11:
it didnt work for me? both of the app required Google play service and google play store, after downloading and installing it still doesnt work launches and crashes on Amazon Fire TV.
[Fire TV General] :
If I install play Service and sign in will pro apps work I will push from my phone that I downloaded using same account?
[Fire TV General] pedro1977:
If you're talking about a installing on a firestick you won't be signing in or using your account to authenticate pro apps.
[Fire TV General] thesavo:
That was very confusing.
[Fire TV General] pedro1977:
In short, no
[Fire TV General] Warrior1988:
You can sign in just cant install apps from the play store.
[Fire TV General] Y314K:
Is this still working. Would like to try it on a FTV1 that is running the latest PreRooted ROM but without SuperSU. So basically it is a Rooted FTV1 running as Non-Rooted FTV1 since some streaming apps have Root checkers. But got an app that demands Google services to even allow their login page.
[Fire TV General] Racer_X_:
I was never able to get it to work. Someone more technically inclined might be able to.
[Fire TV General] Y314K:
[MENTION=8528466]allusernamestaken[/MENTION] are u still using this ? Any update to the files or instructions.

Anybody ?
[Fire TV General] allusernamestaken:
[MENTION=1449438]Y314K[/MENTION] Actually I just got an Amazon Fire TV 3rd Generation and I did everything the same as in my tutorial for the Firestick 2 and everything went seamlessly. I used the newest versions of everything.

I downloaded the Fios app and got "Won't run without google play services which are not supported by your device"

I went to https://www.apkmirror.com/ and downloaded the latest Google Play Store version: Google Play Store (Android TV) 10.5.10 by Google LLC

Then I downloaded Google Play Services latest version: Google Play services (Android TV) 12.6.88 by Google LLC

My Fios app now works. My APK Pure app updates the Google Play Store and Services from time to time on my Firestick 2 and it still working fine.

Some people on this thread are misunderstanding this tutorial. This will not give you a working Google Play Store, it will just bypass the error so you can use the app.
[Fire TV General] Y314K:
Thanks, Will update my FTV1's to the latest PreRooted FW version tomorrow & test this out. The App I am interested in using is AT&T SportsNet. Hope it works. It seems to be very buggy.
[Fire TV General] Jackie393:

[Fire TV General] danthecoolboy:
Are there any developments on running Google Play or Google Play Services on the Fire TV 3rd Generation?
[Fire TV General] SailFan:
I was successful in getting Google Play Store and Google Play Services on my Firestick... and I can run YouTube TV. HOWEVER - when it gets to the the Try Free or Sign-In page, no matter which I select I get a "+Add Account" dialog box seems unresponsive. Has anyone seen this?

[Fire TV General] ldeveraux:
It took you a decade after registration to make your first post??
[Fire TV General] SailFan:
I like to be sure about something before jumping in.

Seriously, I used to have an Android phone and I probably registered here because of that. <shrug>
[Fire TV General] paul0909:
I used the information on the first page about installing play and services for android TV to hopefully get an app called VRV to work, before I installed play and services it would give me an error message, now it says not available in your area yet despite the same VPN that bypasses the location problem on my phone being installed on my fire TV, any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

[Fire TV General] Forever Alone:
Hello I tried installing play store but failed. ? I installed play store (atv) play services (atv) play services and some play framework apk.. And it's not opening. Can someone please mention latest apk names (links would be much better)? Thanks..
[Fire TV General] Little Nugget:
It won't let me post urls so just add "apkmirror." before the "com" for both links. I used this for play store: com/apk/google-inc/google-play-store-android-tv/google-play-store-android-tv-12-4-69-release/

And this for play services (for the firestick 2nd gen you need the armeabi-v7a version): com/apk/google-inc/google-play-services-android-tv/google-play-services-android-tv-14-7-99-release/
[Fire TV General] pedro1977:
Look at my post on page 3 and it will never open, I've said this before it's simply provides a service so that other apps that depend on these services will run.
[Fire TV General] leonie:
Has anyone got Play Services Working with Fire TV Stick 4K ?
[Fire TV General] pedro1977:
Nope in fact some apps don't seem to want to start with it installed. I'm not sure why, if anyone finds a working version post it. We also need to figure out the best versions of account manager, play store and frame work to install as this is android 7 not 6 as with the previous stick. What ever works on the fire TV 3rd gen should work on the 4k stick.
[Fire TV General] Hussein98:
Hey guys, can anyone please help me out?

The message that get is the app won't run unless I update Google Play Services but I have the latest version.
[Fire TV General] rdwelker:
I have the fire TV 4K and tried a couple different methods.

https://www.netzwelt.de/software-chooser/18702-google-play-installationsdateien.html

The one above will get me to the play store sign in but gets stuck "SIGNING IN...This may take a couple minutes".

Paid apps I installed with apps2fire will now work were they would not before.

Not sure if that helps explain anything
[Fire TV General] pedro1977:
Get stuck here forever, and i've tried a few times too. Also google play services causes many apps to become stuck at the splash screen, plus the version provided is too old for apps like BT Sport.
[Fire TV General] Intenti0n:
This 100% did work with the 2nd gen firestick but as I guess the 4K firestick uses Android 7 - thats the problem?

Can't we use Android 7 version of the files, would that help?
[Fire TV General] pedro1977:
Doesn't surprise me as it was developed one year ago. I believe the crucial files are the account manager and account framework which have been modified so a later version would also have to be modified. Im unsure who developed that or whether they're going to update it. Im not sure why framework services freezes up some apps on boot, may need to be continually revised too. Maybe once the others have be installed it will auto update which may help or make things worse if a modded version is created.
[Fire TV General] Makeshift27015:
I've been trying this on a 4K FireTV and have been having issues as well. It seems that the gms service isn't able to get the permissions it needs to continue. I managed to get to the login prompt but then it span forever, spamming this in logcat:

12-21 14:00:11.933 6708 6708 W DeviceDoctorHandler: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to create application com.google.android.gms.common.app.GmsApplication: java.lang.SecurityException: addOnPermissionsChangeListener: Neither user 10186 nor current process has android.permission.OBSERVE_GRANT_REVOKE_PERMISSIONS.

I can't grant that permission so I'm not really sure where to go from here.
[Fire TV General] pedro1977:
Thanks for the info and that's because we are on Android 7. I have the same issue with screen overlays and permissions. Not sure if there is a work around then, and you would probably need root too.

I know it doesn't open. Because it isn't supported by the Fire TV, but it does help with apps that use Google Play Services to start or run.

Hello, I need help! my nexus 6 has never been rooted or unlocked, never had to used debugging option, but today my phone rebooted and it wont pass the animated startup screen, I am trying to flash the factory image from google but I need to unlock the bootloader to do that, and to do that I need debugging on, but I cannot access that option since the phone wont boot to the os, how can I solve this issue? thanks for your help in advance

have you tried going into your stock recovery and just do a regular factory reset?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
[MENTION=2953430]jorge3687[/MENTION]: First try a factory reset as suggested by Arju. If that doesn't work, sideload an OTA image to restore your device. The OTA images don't require an unlocked bootloader.

Hi, is there a hack to get the old people hub on w10mobile? Prior to creators update, I could use Facebook connect. I am annoyed that it doesn't work even after I use the original MSFT version of Facebook (worked on my hp elite x3 until cu)

People hub appx ?

Is it possible to have even an older version of the "people app" on the latest w10m build? I just want the ppl app prior to creators update.
[Windows 10 Mobile] Pedromja:
Hi. I wanted to fix it too. When i recover the system with windows device recovery tool things work and i always keep Microsoft Fbook app syincing just fine. The problem is that SO autoupdates itself from build to build. I copy data of apps with app data manager tool to try to get conclusions about it. I assume the problem is created on other apps that connect the info from FB to people. My best clue is the app named Content delivery manager. I tried to restore it but it fails.. when i try to recover this app with previous backup it also erases FBOOK to install but then it stops without ending the process.. I would need to inject it somehow to prove my theory. Info can pass through but not in the actual updated state of out OS.
[Windows 10 Mobile] saq333:
Thanks, yes super frustrating that they intentionally continue to rip out the functions that kept the OS unique. My only guess us that they're trying to get rid of us.
[Windows 10 Mobile] Talon Pro:
Certainly makes you wonder. Im almost waiting for the day they flip an invisible switch and make the phones unable to connect to anything including your cell provider forcing us to ditch our bricks. They already forced the 8.1's to be unable to sync the MS accounts for months now. If that happens, i dont know what ill do, cause i refuse to use Android or iOS. Maybe ill find a flip phone...
[Windows 10 Mobile] djtonka:
do you thing they care any more ?
[Windows 10 Mobile] Talon Pro:
Certainly not. For them to abandon for "iOS and Android app development" shows they give exactly two ****s about their users. I really wish i was a share holder...

When they moved away from WinMo for WP they really screwed up, but the users were *****ing for an OS that could run Win32 apps, so they gave us something "more powerful" but what they thought would compete with iOS and Android, which is completely backwards. If it werent for WinMo those two wouldnt be around. No Mac user ever complained that Apple didnt have a phone/OS and Google was just a search engine. Now granted, technology and progress dictate SOME change, but most 6.5 users loved it (I didnt, i think 6.1 was the best PPC version) only complaining about the hardware. I mean really, the HD1 was the pinnacle of hw? But, it could run Android, XP and WP7.8 (IIRC someone got RT to boot on it once or twice?), i never understood why MS was "happy" with HTC being the only HW developer until WP8. I would LOVE to see what a CE based WinMo 10 would do on a 950 spec HW. Prob run Win32 apps finally...
