I really like using these new Oreo ROMs but I can't seem to get Google play movies app to work. Then even if it works it only works for 1 or 2 times then it never works again. Just want to know if there's a work around so that I can still watch the movies I paid for without being stuck to nougat. Thanks in advance ?
Someone else may have experiences to share, I don't use play movies. If I had trouble like this, I'd be pulling a logcat and looking to see why it fails.

Make sure that you are using the most recent happy and the appropriate version... They are different between 8.0 and 8.1.

I've just tried with both stock (AOSP) and the none beta Firefox and it works fine for me. Bit surprised TBH as I'm in the UK and expected it to be geo IP locked.
Might be worth trying the none beta Firefox and see if it makes a difference.

Both my sons N7 and mine will not run flash. Even though it is loaded and showing in the app drawer. I even tried Boat and still nothing? I guess I will try and undo/reinstall everything. Too weird..

Like the above poster said, enable flash in settings. Also, set plugins to auto for best performance.

I'm running the Flash Player 11 v11.0.1.153 armv6.apk with Firefox beta, latest version downloaded yesterday and on some sites like Biography.com the video plays but no sound. Just downloaded Boat and it doesn't work at all, says Flash needs to be installed. Both browsers obviously have plugins enabled.
Running stock 4.2.1 on my Nexus 7.
Okay here some advice
1st I manually updated to 4.3 and Now I regret it .
word of advice stay with 4.2 till it works with all your Apps
4.3 Crashes way too many apps for my Liking
My Top apps don't work at all
(1) Hola!
(2) MX Player
(3) Crome Beta
(4) Franco kernel
(5) Vlc
I am thinking of going back to 4.2 cause of this
If want your apps to work Flawless then 4.3 is not for you Stick with 4.2
It works like clock work on Everything
What apps are crashing for you? As for me, only VLC Player and Franco kernel won't work
Sent from my Nexus 4
For MXPlayer use the test version from their site, it works

Franco have rlsd a r170 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2002782&page=4098 that works with 4.3, he is on vacation and not everything is working.
I´m waiting for CM10.2 and franco kernel that fully works and also NexusLoud mod. Can´t be without that mod.

People dirty flashing and then blaming it on 4.3
VLC works fine for me. So does pandora, chrome beta.
Snapchat.
I was on the official stock 4.3 image, non rooted. Watching recieved snapchat videos would cause the phone to reboot every now and then. While charging with a USB cable, it would happen at least once every 10 minutes. It happened while the phone wasn't charging too, but not as often. Back on 4.2.2 Rasbeanjelly now until better kernels and custom ROMS come out for 4.3. Oh and I did a clean flash. Backed everything up and wiped everything, including the internal storage.
I just want to add that if you are using jawbone up band, that will not sync after 4.3 either. I have gone back to 4.2 for now

Stay 4.2.2 for a while lest for the APP crashes. though have already received OTA.

Apparently, Koush has built in Chromecast functionality to CM, possibly for future release. Hopefully, similar mods can be made that will do the same for other ROMs...

To be clear, this allows you to cast any video or audio, FROM a CM phone TO the Chromecast.
When i read your post, i imagined that i could cast TO my CM phone...
Still, VERY AWESOME!

Game. Changer.
Unless I understand it wrong, none of these 3rd party apps and tweaks are going to work for us (non-developers) until Google starts whitelisting apps. I think each app needs its own specific whitelisted key by Google in order to make an app talk to the Chromecast.

I fell into the same trap; I want to use an old tablet I have laying around as a chromecast receiver. While this isn't that, you kind of buried the lead: media from any app is castable, that is amazing.

From what I understand Koush went around this requirement by not using the Chromecast API.

I thought the Chromecast hardware had to be setup to be in 'developer mode', and then whitelisted by Google in order to even receive anything besides the default apps?

The function will be built into CM so you wont have to root the chromecast, now you have to unlock and root your device to install CM so as long as the build you install supports it you should be good to go.
This i want. Streaming netflix and YouTube from my tablet is awesome, but chromecast is pretty limited.
I knew this would happen at some point. Those that don't have a chromecast need to order one now (2-3 month wait). Hopefully this will be released soon.

Here is something that might actually allow streaming (casting) to a device running CM or any other ROM?

This is exactly what I thought chromecast was when it was first announced. I was really disappointed when I saw the limited functionality it actually has. Hopefully a full on mirror will be next.

I don't really get the appeal of this. What's the point of casting something on one android device to another? Why not just play it on that device you are casting too? Of casting to an HDMI stick doesn't make sense, just play the video/ audio on the HDMI stick.
Koush`s chromecast integration is awesome.

PM me for Google Chromecast ready to ship.
I have a nexus 5, and love the newer KK launcher. I have my tf701 ordered and shipped but not delivered yet. Just wondering if anybody tried using the launcher?

Looks like it works with other tablets and phones too. It adds a Google now screen if you swipe all the way to the left and makes the bottom bar through. I don't it would hurt anything seeing as it is just an APK. Shouldn't need root or anything like that.

I thought it needed KitKat to work?
I think it will work on anything with jelly bean or newer. I'm not a hundred percent sure though. When I get my tablet in I will install it and give it a try.
Here's another thread about it.

I think a lot of it had to do with the Google Play services that were provided now. If you update completely Google now Google Voice, I think the google it. Launcher installed with just one apk.

I'm still on version 0.9.6.886092 because i can't update the google now launcher, probably because the TF701 doesn't has 4.4 yet. But it works fine =)

I cant find the netflix app on the play store neither install it through the play store when going on the computer.
NETFLIX is supported in Israel (where i live) and i had it on both my galaxy s4 and my oneplus 3t.
What could possibly be the reason?

Are you rooted? If so, that is the problem. Netflix no longer allows their app to be installed on a rooted phone.
There is however a workaround. Search for it using "install Netflix on rooted phone".

Ok i installed an apk. It works great. Everything is fine as expected. It just bums me out that i have to go around and get an apk. Besides the fact it feels less secure than using the play store. Its also not gonna get any updates which is also annoying.
I just hoped i could fix it without having to go around
