Yep. Loaded and watched an old All Blacks game. Works well. Loaded it on a Fire TV 4k stick.




My views (except when I am looking out their windows) are not those of my employer.

Can you give me some tips on how to load it to the normal fire stick. I used the Apps2fire app to sideload spark sport app from an android phone to the fire stick but the spark app is not working on fire stick.

Any tips?
Thanks

You need the Android TV version, not the phone version that you have installed.

There are instructions somehwere in the next page or so - but you won't download to your phone. You can download to your PC, then put on a shared folder and use a file manager on the Fire TV to browse to that share and install it (option #4 here).

Thanks kiwifruta and freitasm for your help. I don't have a computer.
I used the brouser downloader app on the fire stuck to download the link you showed (freitasm) me.

I'm not the best at all this tex stuff. But have spark loaded and working on the stick. I also have an android box on another TV. I'll try load on that as well some time.

Thanks

Can't seem to work out how to use prime video on firestick.

 

Initial setup with US account I see all the movies and shows in prime video but get a geo restricted error when I try to play, changed my account to NZ no movie listings but in the app I see ads for movies but still unplayable.Tried using my friends nz prime account and prime video app does not open.I can access prime video from my laptop, phone without any problems but the firestick won't let me play or display movies.
