recently netflix got added to the australian nexus player play store. i have the u.s. apk installed, and the australian play store recognises i have that apk installed (i can open netflix via the play store).
what i'm wondering is: could i uninstall the sideloaded u.s. apk and install the app from the store, and still use my u.s. account? has anyone here done that? will the sideloaded apk be now updated from the play store and i don't have to do anything? and also, are the apps different based upon region, or is the netflix app the same across all regions and it just recognises your region upon launching?
getting updates from the play store would be a lot more convenient that having to periodically check to see if there has been any updates online.
I am in Canada and i have American Netflix. I just use the normal one from the store. As far as I can tell the app is universal and the servers dole out the content based on your location. So using the store version should be fine.
thanks for the info. if the app doesn't update from the play store, i'll just uninstall my sideloaded apk and install it from the play store.

Purchased Play store apps gone missing? Google's looking into it....

I am missing Google Play Movies and Transformers. Is this a region problem? My account is in the US and my CC/billing is in the US, but I originally turned it on while I was here in China. WTF? The app is nowhere to be found, nor is Transformers. Why does this even matter? Am I not allowed to watch my own content overseas or something?
On the Google Play website, it say it is compatible with both my devices and when I browse the Play Store from my Nexus 7, it is listed as Update. I tried installing it to the Nexus 7 from the website, but it never downloads.
So, how do I get back Google Play Movies, Transformers, and other region specific applications?
You need to be using a US VPN to get the free movies.
To get the apps, you need to root and then you can see them with Titanium Backup.
I am on a US VPN.
So what the hell am I supposed to do when I travel? The second you leave the country, your app permanently disappears forcing you to either root the device or constantly factory reset? This is absurd. It doesn't have a SIM card, so how can it be region locked?
The movie is provided by youtube .Try accesing the movie where you are through your youtube account on a computer at http://www.youtube.com/purchases .
hey, does anyone happen to have the latest leanback netflix apk (with surround sound)?
i'd update netflix via google play, but netflix has completely disappeared from the australian play store for me. it doesn't even show up as an installed app within "my apps" in the store. weird.

They always have the latest versions of all the stuffs
I have a rooted Fire HD 10.
I am running the Pixel Launcher, and try to use as many Android apps, vs Amazon Fire versions.
One issue I am running into is that when an app tries to redirect me to the Google Play Store, I get the following notification:
Continue to Amazon Appstore?
This app is trying to open a link with an external market that is not available on your device. Would you like to open this link with the Amazon Appstore instead?Now, I DO have the Play Store installed, and it works just fine.
Is there any way to get the links to the Play Store to open Google Play?
Hey guys, Came across a great APK which allows you to access the entire playstore on your Android TV.
Yalp Store uses the same (protobuf) API the android Play Store app uses. It downloads apks directly from Google servers.
By default Yalp Store connects to Google services using a built-in account, so you do not have to own a Google account to use it. The only reason to use a live Google account is to access the paid apps you own.
Each time you log in a new Google Services Framework id (also known as device id) is generated using your device parameters.
For us to access all the apps all we need to do is spoof our device ID with another handset (Nexus / Pixel / Samsung tab etc).
You can see a demo of me installing the full version of Google Chrome and also Youtube TV direct on my 4K firestick
Do other apps see this as Play Services also? I have an app that apparently requires Google play services, and it seems that the other method for putting that on the Fire TV 4k is not working anymore.
That's not YouTube TV you are installing. That's YouTube for Android TV. It's just regular Youtube, and not the live TV and DVR version of YouTube TV.
stuck on "check Yalp Store Credential" and no way tonuse mine... sorry...
