AFTVNEWS talks about a bug in the way Downloader handles MediaFire downloads on the home page.
The 2.0.4 update fixes that, that’s primarily what the update fixes, It is installed on my phone and Downloader works fine.
I haven’t looked on my streaming devices because I usually download to my phone and install via ATVTools.

I am trying to use the downloader app of the fire stick. I already had the app on the fire stick. I am using codes in tool box. Allowing to open the site but when I try to install. It just shows “connecting” as status and never moves from there. I tried several of the codes to make sure it just wasn’t the one I was trying. None will work. Any suggestions?

If using a VPN try disabling that temporarily and see if that fixes it. Also, make sure you are using the Downloader app by AFTVNews and not the other imposters who are pretending to be the official.

Thanks. I finally had to chat with the streaming provider who gave me a different code for the IPTV smarters pro. But she had me restart fire stick before I tried it. I think the code on tropypoint probably needs to be updated. Code I was given 2239831.

Setting up new android 14 aosp box. Downloader codes and websites that work on downloader on shield give the following error nessage: The webpage at “many different codes and websites” could not be loaded because: net::ERR\_SSL\_PROTOCOL\_ERROR. Most codes and addresses work on the new device, but many don’t. It isn’t rare by any means. The 2 boes are hooked up to hdmi 1 and 2 on same tv while setting up.

Are you using a VPN? If so have you tried various protocols? What make and model is the device? Have you tried a router reset? Unplug it or turn the power off for it, for a couple of minutes then power it back up and let it go through it’s handshake process. Once done (usually takes 3 or 4 minutes) give it another try.

Hello, watch the video at the top of this page. My guess is that this is a VPN problem or you are using wrong Downloader app.

If you are trying to set up with the same apps, install XPlore on both devices, then grab a USB stick and copy the apps on the shield to it and then install from it on the other device. Easier than all those downloader codes.

Still cannot get the new or the old versions of Downloader to load either 4692335 or 7259155. Instead it brings up a page that says something about, “This is not the site you expected” I am able to load the TP toolbox with no problem. Ugoos SK1, tried without VPN, allowed unknown, gave permissions, still get A weird above message on both codes ?? Kind of stumped.
The page that comes up for both versions is something to do with Github Status. I don’t see any way to load either App I type in.
Is there any way both could be added to Troy Point Toolbox??
