I know this is an old post and partially off topic, but here is how I made this work using Nova Launcher on my 5th Gen rooted Fire tablet using ADB.
Install the Google search app then Then;
Disable the unified search so it doesn't try to use the stock kindle search widget
adb pm disable...
I know this is an older post but I found a way to achieve this 90% of the way. I have tested a lot of methods; apps, tasker tasks, adb input swipes and keyevents, sqlite mods but so far only this nets a consistent and reliable result. I use these devices as Home Automation panels so I gotta...
I don't use it in that way I just use it for accessing my current network shares from within applications on the fireTV, that is about all this script is intended for. To be honest I don't even think the way that the script is mounting the shares and in order for it to work would have to be...
FadeFx, your probably following along better than you think its just what I had to do was notably a cheat at best. So when I was trying earlier to execute it as su the service was starting but the SDCard was not being shared out so I had to dig from my local PC via adb to better understand how...
Essentially yes but there is a minor caveat. I was running the script through an an adb shell on the device in the script to work around another problem so my actual command was more like "adb -s emulator-5554 shell "su -c blahblah". The service starts however the share configured at...
FadeFx thanks for the suggestion sorry for the delay I just got back around to this. I have the development version and have been using the "dont overwrite" feature for a while now so I made the change you suggested, well I can still reach the share (which was never actually the issue) but it...
Hey no problems glad I could help get you sorted out, I'll PM you with some more specific information that I think you are after that should get you where you want to be.
To answer your questions;
1. No, this doesn't implement samba which is what would make it seen on your network. The way that I personally achieve this on my firetv is by sideloading and running "Samba FileSharing", that will do exactly what your trying todo there.
2. Until you said that I had...
Sorry I thought I had already replied to this a few days ago but apparently I didnt hit submit or something. Yes, that is exactly what this script is for and for that use case it works very well.
Edit: Sorry, I incorrectly answered your question. You can't run or install android applications...
Unfortunately no. ES File Explorer lets you browse network shares but it does not let you mount them and this means that only ES File Explorer can see the contents no other application can see those files and that problem is two fold, not only is that because its not a feature of ES File...
Thank you for that information I am clearly blind and did not come across that but it was probably staring me in the face the entire time. It's ironic you mention the service and Tasker because thats exactly where I started earlier today on this (notably with very little insight into what...
Start Service on boot (wired)
I know the Samba Filesharing app supports auto starting the service on wifi but what about wired? I have a fireTV that is always connected via LAN cable and would like to do this, even if its something I have to setup a script in my script manager for (root...
I hacked up a script to mount a single Samba/CIFS share using adb shell directly on the firetv. This can be executed using any script manager (I use Rom Toolbox Pro's scripter) and if configured by your script manager it will in fact execute and mount the share on boot. If you have more than...
Sorry, I cant directly confirm this for Liquid Smooth but like I said if it can be confirmed by the ROM developer that REMOTE SUBMIX support is compiled into the ROM then using mirror enabler _should_ work. I would suggest contacting the developer to see if this is the case. I can confirm that...
I read in some other Chromecast forums users run into issues connecting the chromecast to hotel networks that require registration of the device through a web browser as well as AP Isolation, because you cant browse to the site on it to agree to their terms of service you cant join the network...
Two questions;
What rom are you using?
Did you place the file in /etc/ or /system/etc ? It goes in /etc/
Also make sure the file is owned by root and has 644 perms
Here is how mine got working, mind you post these instructions I never had to flash past v2. If you already flashed v3 or greater then you probably don't need to do steps 1 and 2 because Mirror enabler handles that part.
Install and enable mirror enabler v2
execute the following commands in a...
Works perfect on my DNA running cm11 m8. Do you have latest chromecast updates and apk, stock cm kernel?

Double check that you have it checked in Settings>notification drawer>quick settings panel>cast screen.

r3pwn and I got things rolling on cm-11 so that is confirmed. In the case of DNA ROMs any aosp and cm based should work without issue with v3. It seems the only folks having problems right now is because their ROMs did not compile in r_submix support.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using XDA Free...
Not to be a debbie downer but I think just based on the sheer nature of the changes required in just getting the casting initially enabled w/v1 or v2 root is and will be a requirement going forward until google pushes out an official update enabling for all devices.
Verified, the changes we discussed fix the FC issue on my Droid DNA running CM11 Snapshot M8, it looks like scaling is a bit off but thats not a deal breaker. This may be TV/Receiver specific as well. Finally no more FCs :)
So, im not a developer im just trying to peel back layers but what I did notice when looking earlier is that those values did differentiate between devices (cant find the post but there was a post on XDA with a bunch of people posting their audio_policy.config files) so I would say dont muck...
I can try to extract it to look. I am also finding information about this "fixing" chromecasty issues as it related to mirracast so yeah maybe it is related. Here are a few other sources I found, it might be good for nothing but just for review;
r_submix is defined in audio.h...
I don't have the device and this is all speculation but doing some quick poking around it looks like he might be talking about this ROM http://www.blinkenlights.ch/ccms/android/yuga.html
The devs (pabx) XDA signature says he doesnt answer tech questions via PM and I could not find the rom listed...
I finally figured out the deal with the missing libraries and now just have to troubleshoot a new issue with "INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT" which I'll chase down. Looks like the nsz-gs7 runs honeycomb 3.2 so not sure what that will mean in the long run but I'll keep fooling around with it while I...
In summary I am not a developer just an android enthusiast with a very good understanding of the rooting/modding side of the community on multiple devices. I am trying to side load some apk's from my rooted Sony nsz-gs7 to the firetv in hope to get the IP Bluetooth remote (NSG-MR5U) to work...
So this is something I have been trying to crack as well, im curious how you got the remote to pair with btoolkit? My fireTV sees it (hit or miss) but never pairs.
I have an nsz-gs7 and have been attempting to extract certain APKs from the system as I have root access on it to try and get them...
Anyone else experience 'squelching' in the headset? Had it happen yesterday for the first time ever during a call and when dialing numbers there was a thumping sound that could be heard behind the rings.
May/May-not be a ROM issue. Latest CM7 Test 6/1, no mods, Radio 1.16.00.0223r
Just to clear some confusion is the zip drods custom kernel with beavis's fix or is this just beavis's fix in zip form? Reading others comments its a little hard to determine.
n/m figured this out on my own, the md5s are the same so.. thats that.

Slayhers Stock kernel, the version im running is 2.6.32.21-g1d91b49 [email protected] #16
I tend to shy away from custom kernels, im my experience they tend to cause more trouble than they are worth, obviously not always the case.
I also have experienced this issue myself but until now was not sure if it was a carrier or CM related issue, This has plagued me for the past 2 test versions, I have yet to flash latest from 5-28.
Radio version: 1.1600.0223r
passed the ultimate test, The Mrs's didnt scream at me about echo and hang up on me while talking to her on the phone. I think this means the mic problem was fixed :)
Still dont get a lock on gps but man, I can work with this. Great work all!
(if this version needs a code name you could...
Yea I spent a good few hours yesterday trying to help Orio out and we attempted a ton of things to try and fix the recovery issue, this post should offer a bit more insight to the methods used, this is running off memory;

You can download it from several locations and install via rom manager. In fact its even in; Rom Manager > Download Roms > Google Apps > 20110307 Universal. Once its been flashed you will return to CM and should have market.
Im assuming "and no" means you didn't flash gapps. You can download it from several locations and install via rom manager. In fact its even in; Rom Manager > Download Roms > Google Apps > 20110307 Universal. Once its been flashed you will return to CM and should have market.

Just figured id post, I have tried with both the stock, and latest leaked radios and reflashed the rom each time with a complete wipe. Both times I still get no GPS lock and still have audio issues (echoing, dim sounds, etc). Not usual behavior at my current location.
Its still great to see...
Unnoficial 4.2.4 available
This will be my final post on the thread concerning my updates however as 4.2.4 dropped today, so did I update this theme. Still no Audiohack or LockScreen but does include the updated contacts w/photos and Eclair Animations/Bouncy Menus.
Frankly speaking, im not...
Screen Down functions
The added functionality is great in this version. 2 features I think could be very usefull would be;
1. Option to put call on speaker phone if phone is placed screen down on flat surface while in a call (disable when call ends or phone is no longer flat). To build on...
Ported to 4.2.3.1
For all are interested I have ported this theme (-Audio hack and Stericson's Lock Screen) to CM 4.2.3.1.
Note this is my first port and it works for me, doesn't guarantee it will work for you. Please don't comment on this thread if you have any problems as it would not be...
4.2.1
Just applied this theme (r1) to 4.2.1 and it seems to play nice and I just gotta say that andjohns boot screen really tops this off.
@worlddestroyer In reguard to this being a themed ROM im not clear on that myself because the Mod Version reports this as being 4.1.999 with the theme...
4.1.9999
I probably posted this about 3 hours after it was released but i figured i would get a quicker response on your post than elsewhere. I love this theme, its so simplistic however really gives the phone a true ubuntu feel... i actually had someone look at my phone and say "Ubunutu...
