As a new forum member I cannot post to the dev forum.
I am unlocked and rooted and loving the Trupure rom but I dig the cyanogenmod roms, too, like AIPC and whatnot. Trouble is, cast (netflix, actually) doesn't work on them for me and neither does rom toolbox pro or lightning launcher. Both apps crash.
Lemme qualify cast not working; it will fire-up and I can see my apps and whatnot but when I open netflix and hit play video and audio drops. If I stop play I can see the netflix app on my TV but as soon as I hit play - black screen and no audio.. Cast does connect easily and quickly, though.
I have a firewall as well as xprivacy with the same settings I use on trupure. Cast and netflix work fine for me in trupure. Also, lightning launcher and rom toolbox pro work fine for me in trupure.
Any advice?

I figured it would be a good time to start a list of apps that work with the Kindle Fire HD after root:
Deadspace: Runs GREAT!
Google Movies: RUns great and signs in/syncs after installing from System/app folder
Youtube: Works perfectly after installing from system/app folder
Shadowgun: Runs fine but is upside down, FIX: Use screenlock and it works peachy.
Osmos: Same as Shadowgun
Wings of Glory: Works fluidly.
Google Music: Syncs and works flawlessly. NOTE: Not quite there. Shutting down requires a re-install for it to work again. Looking into this.
Google Books: Works great
Antutu: Runs fine, but again, the G-sensor seems to affect the orientation when running GPU tests.
N64oid: Runs GREAT!
FPSa: Runs great as well
More to come...
Ive been able to get quite a few apps to work as well. Some required google maps files in order to work. So I took 2 files from my EVO 3D. The files I used are "com.google.android.maps.jar", which goes in system/ framework. And "com.google.android.maps.xml" which goes in etc/ permissions. This allowed me to sideload and run the CVS, Best Buy, Best Buy Reward Zone, and Best Buy game trade apps. I had to manually enter in my location. But they now work.
Other apps Ive gotten to work are:
Facebook, Fandango, Busy Box, cache cleaner, Dead Trigger, Drop Box, Gmail, Quick Boot, Root Browser, and Titanium.
Has anyone got WatchESPN app to work? If that's working then i will upgrade from my original kindle fire.
Has anyone got Google play magazines to work?

So i think I'm going to go upgrade to this phone. Currently on unlocked bootloader droid maxx. Only thing i really need root for is chrome cast for NFL Mobile. Does anyone know if there is a work around (patch?) that doesnt require root to hide chromecast from the running apps or some other way so that NFL Mobile will still work with stock chromecast running? My current solution (using 3rd party screen share) requires root for audio so i am pretty sure that isn't going to work on droid turbo. Just wondering if anyone else casts redzone to their tv and is also looking for a workaround/solution using droid turbo.
Thanks

I just cast my entire screen
How do you cast your entire screen?
You can't do this anymore, NFL mobile patched full screen cast just in time for TNF moving back from CBS in Week 9. You'll get audio from TV but no video. Currently unaware of a workaround. Allcast is similarly disabled.

Crap, you're right. I used to be able to and just figured I still could. Sorry to get your hopes up bud.
Is anyone able to cast netflix on tv using redmi2? which rom?
I'm trying since i was using miui, with the custom roms i always get black screen , sound and subtitles, but no image.
when i was using miui the image appeared still (on pause) but after play went black again.
I also have another application from my pay tv that allows on demand shows, movies, documentaries, series and happens the same... blank screen when i make it play on tv thru casting.
I'm right now using RR Nougat last version 5.80.

Hi, did you solve the problem? It's happening to me, too, and I can not find a solution.
I'm seeing this reported on various phones and various ROMs, rooted or not, since at least 2014, and nobody has a fix. Similar Reddit threads give clearing all Netflix app data or reinstalling the app as solutions, but on those threads the reported problem was not being able to start casting the screen at all.
I also have this everything-casts-but-the-video variant of the problem on my Redmi 3 with CM 12.1 and haven't found a solution. Tried reinstalling the app only to find that newer versions are incompatible with my phone and can't even be installed off the store (had to go back to v4.16.1 via apkmirror). Tried setting Force GPU Rendering and Disable HW Overlays in Developer Options, tried tweaking the screen DPI, tried streaming to a Miracast-capable dongle rather than directly to my Samsung TV - nothing worked.
Got my fire last night, immediately installed play store and google services which are working great. I installed google home, but when i go into netflix and hit the cast button all i get is my vizio tv and my xbox one as options. Any ideas on how to get this to work? I installed netflix from the amazon appstore if that makes a difference. When I go to cast something in chrome both my chromecasts show up fwiw.

See my thread here. I've been trying for quite a while now and so far, I've come up almost empty. Long story short, Google, phone manufacturers and service providers, have done a very good job at embedding their own codes into the source, XML and build props that do one of two things: 1) Enable it (in the future) for only their devices using their services or 2) Added enough code on so many lines and pages, it's almost impossible to filter out what will or does work and for what devices and when. I am doing my best though. I been through two bricks on my XT907 trying to figure this out. Funny thing is, KitKat was one of the few versions of Android that had full support for it. They really did good at blocking it even from 4.4.2 (which is what my phone is).
Free APK to send chrome cast content (screen cast and tab cast) to your fire tv. It supports any fire tv.
Instructions:
side load the APK to your Fire TV
Version 1.2
This is not my work but it is verified to work and it does not contain any ads or any limitations
Hello!
Thank you very much for this app. I sideloaded on my FTVS and it works great with Spotify. Unfortunately I can't detect it with any other app like Chrome / Youtube... Is this app able to cast only sound?
I was able to test it with chrome tab cast and screen mirroring from Windows computer
Install Google Home on your tablet, phone, whatever and go to cast screen.
This works great. Just gonna keep stuff like roms\emulators on my tablet primarily now.
Thank you!
Hi, thanks for apk. Unfortunately it doesn't work for me. I have installed your apk and googleHome Cast app. Moreover i installed the google play service for android tv. On my phone and my PC i can see the new "tv-stick-chromecast-device", but i don't can see anything if i try to send something from Phone or PC to the Stick. After opening the Chromecast app i tried to go to cast screen, but there is no device found. What i'm doing wrong, please help me. Thank you.
greetings
Sideloaded also and works perfect!!
Works perfect for me on fire stick 2nd gen nice one is it a full one or a trial ?
VERY cool!
It took me several times to get it to cast but it is works.
I hope this app sticks around longer than the last Google cast app for AFTV.
Does this app require Play Store/Services on the Fire TV device?

Hi josuelopezv:
What's so shameful. Developers give you a convenient to install android box without Google Play Service since you said you already buy it from Google PlayStore. But you leak it as piracy and don't think how many times developers spend to implement the Cast Protocol in house.

I thought this is forbidden/illegal? Shouldnt this thread or at least the APK have been deleted?
I do not have a problem to buy any app that has the right functionality.
Im just not used to see pirated content on here(?)
There is nothing illegal about this.

This doesn't seem to allow cast of youtube. It works fine for everything else though. Was hoping to use this for a workaround for the upcoming youtube app removal.

Same here. Casting from YouTube via Chrome on my laptop doesn't work but casting the whole screen does (never found a use for that though since the quality and latency make it pretty useless)
Yeah since I found a work around for the coming youtube/fire armageddon I'm not concerned. How are you casting the whole screen btw?
Dave
I use Google Home to steam everything and haven't had a hiccup. Even games work fine.
Thanks! I'll give this a shot. How is the apk in this thread different than the one in the play store?
Thanks for posting this. Is there any way to support the developer as this appears to be a premium version?

Why don't you find out for yourself? Kinda seems like a complete waste of time to register just to say this.
This appears to run as a chromecast receiver & NOT as a chromecast Audio receiver. I'm not sure why Google differentiates them but it would be nice to have a toggle in this app.
