I've side loaded the latest apk but when I open it, it's saying it needs google play services to run. Is their any non rooted workarounds to this? I just want to use my free trial on my fire stick lol thanks in advance
followed the instructions here to get google services working
AFTVNEWS
Sideloaded YouTube TV App
I can select my login but it can't find location
I tried sideloading the settings app figuring I could just turn on location services but I was unable to select the check boxes

Hello All,
I'm trying to figure out how to get pokemon go on my kindle fire. Is there a link or step by step process?
I just learned how to ROOT the kindle fire 6.3.4. root but when I try to install a pokemon go.apk file it say "Parse error"
Can anybody point me in the right direction. I don't know if the android rom on it is up to date.
I'm very new to all this.
it is not compatible with your device

Kindle fire 1st gen not only has no camera but also runs android 2.2.3 which is not compatible with pokemon go
There is a way that i did it;
Go to pokemongoforkindlefire.com on your kindle fire
Follow the instructions on the website, it will tell you how to get google play
Once you have google play download google maps
After you have downloaded google maps download pokemon go
Next go to settings > wireless > location based services and turn it on and make sure pokemon go and google maps are enabled too.
Launch google maps and press the current location icon
Exit google play, start pokemon go and enjoy

I haven't tried this, but I am sure if it does work, you will not be able to use the AR capability due to the fact that the Kindle Fire 1st gen. has no camera.
Can't even download fom Google Play store.
How do I get around that?
What if it says no Gps signal but everything is on

i've never been able to, but if you can enable location services you theoretically should be able to. There's a walkthru on doing that somewhere in the firetv forums.
okay i will have to look for that. thats the problem getting a location or a gps to work without google play store

fix!!!!!!
hi I have found out how to make the local channels work it took some time but i figured it out
first you need to install
google play services
google account manager
googleplaystore
google play
settings apk
fake gps
first you must install all google applications
second sign into google play (it will give you an error, thats ok:good
install settings apk
then your gonna use adb shell to enable mock locations (commands for adb shell and how to enable mock locations can be found on xda forum)
after that install fakegps, run the app choose location and voila open directv and click on your local channels all of them will work

I have Fire Stick, Roku, and Apple TV, Apple TV works when you set it up it asks if it can use your location, this is for any DirectV Now app on a TV. Directv now has to match your billing address with your IP address, according to DirectV Now. I have the same problem until I figured it out. I have Windstream which the IP address doesn't match billing address.

I realize it's been a while, but can you give more information on the ADB shell command? I've got the DIRECTV tablet app running just fine, I've installed those apps successfully and I'm connected by ADB. But I can't find a command that turns on mock location. Thanks so much!

Has anyone ever figured this out? I am wanting to install the DIRECTV app on my fire stick.. I am assuming you cant do this on roku right? I dont want DirectvNow, I want the Directv APP. IS there a guide to use ADB and push the file to firestick?
just bricked my 4k firestick trying to install these things. it just keeps looping at the start up screen. Is yours still working ?

The DirecTV app is available on Amazon Firestick and can be downloaded from the Amazon App store. You do not need to sideload it from any of the third-party app stores or APKs.
The steps involved in installing the DirecTV app for Firestick would include the following steps –
Step -1: On your Amazon Firestick, search for the service on your App store.
Step -2: Type in DirecTV Now in the search bar and search for the app.
Step -3: When you find the DirecTV suggestion, just click on the option to begin installing it.
Step -4: Click on the option Get to begin the installation process.
You will need to install the app using the regular option. I have found this steps from here to get local channels on fire tv. You can either sign up if you have no account registered on the DirecTV service or log in to your account if you already have one.
I am new to fire tv. I installed MSG GO to my FireTV but it says I need to install google play services to make it run. I looked all over and have not found a way to make it work. Is this something I can do?
Thanks!
Hi,
I have Firestick 4K 2019 version, would it be possible to run subway surfers.
KIndly help.
Note: I dont have google play store installed on firestick yet. I request a solution without google play store.
Thanks,
If you have it installed on your phone, you can sideload it using apps2fire. Go in the fire TV settings, select "my fire tv", then go in "developers option" and finally, enable both options there, allow ADB and installing apps from unknown sources. Go in the apps2fire app, go to the "install" tab (the last one) then search for your device. Go back to the first tab, find the app you want to install, select it, then tap install. I can't guarantee that the app will work, as I don't think it's even in the android tv play store, and the app is made for screens in portrait mode. If it works some menus will probably only accept touch input, though you can sidestep that by using a Bluetooth mouse.
Thanks, I will try this and let you know if it works.
I am able to install the application but it didnt launch, I can notice that it is trying to change orientation.
Then installed set orientation apk and but the firestick in portratit mode , still no luck.
Anything else you suggest ?
Thanks for your suggestion
I installed Google Duo via the latest version of Aptoide TV on my Fire TV Stick 4K. When Duo starts it asks all the normal security/permission questions. However, when I attempt to Sign In, the screen clears and goes back to the Aptoid TV.
I also tried installing Duo directly to the Fire TV Stick via the Downloader app using the following address that I found: https://bit.ly/2UT2UZX However, I think this link has been taken down.
Has anyone else experienced this and/or found a solution?
Thanks!
Since it's a google application, you probably need the google play services, you can find ways to install them here.

I found the other apk's on APKMirror. After installing in an order I found somewhere else that they should be install in, the stick now just reboots over and over. Now I dont even know how to reset the stick if I can't get to the menu. What a mess.
