Sideloading (streaming Music and other) APP's: Aggregated list!

The MP always had some performance problems (big delays) with big folders and worse large number of tracks within a folder (=playlists).
Nothing to do with the library size. I wonder if MP8 really handles those 2000 well. Eversolo has more of a 500 limit in practice.

 

I never had any big problems with it even when it said 12000+ tracks. Only ‘problem’ was the 5 second wait before it started playing.

But I never counted how many tracks were actually in the play queue…

 

As a sequel to the DVD ISO images playing fine with VLC app (in post #157), I also tried BD Audio ISO images.

Although the menus are quite rusty and take time to display, DMP-A6+VLC will happily play the DTS core in 192kHz stereo from the DTS HD Master Audio audio stream.

A bit pointless since the whole point of these releases are the multi-channel audio, but still nice to know it works.

 

Anybody tried Shazam mod?

 

Nugs (nugs.net) works. Can be added to this list.

Also should probably update the Apple music listing as that issue has been resolved

 

Musicolet works which is an android music player.

 

As a 2nd sequel to the DVD ISO and BD AUDIO ISO images playing fine with VLC app, I also tried full bandwidth BD Video ISO and they also play just fine!

You need to "convert" the ISO using MakeMKV or similar tool.

 

Installed the WARP 1.1.1.1 app from Cloudflare. Downloaded the apk file. Transferred it to Eversolo's internal storage via the network. After launching the app, the interruptions in Qobuz playback disappeared.

 

Maybe someone knows how to make an application installed on Eversolo autostart when turned on? Maybe there are Android specialists here? Please write instructions.

 

Hello everyone. Can someone point me in the direction of a working apk for Plexamp 4.1.1.2. I've tried aptoide.com but all it does is install the aptoide store, not the plexamp app. I tried apkmirror but it comes in a strange bundle format and unzipping it doesn't provide a working apk. Even the plex website just points to the Google Store. Thanks for any help!

 

Try here:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/plex-...4-v8a","armeabi-v7a"],"dpis_slug":["nodpi"]}/

 

thanks for replying, but that's a version that's 2 versions older than the latest (and the 2 newest ones have a lot of enhancements). APKMirror does have the two newest but they are only in their weird "bundle" format, and they don't offer just the apk version. They stopped offering it after the version you linked.

I did find a solution though, and an added benefit. When searching for a better solution for a Squeeze Client, I found one at f-droid.org, and it works as an app on the Eversolo. While there I saw their Aurora Store, which is a client for the Google Play store. It even allows you to log into the Play store anonymously. And then through that I was able to download the latest APK for Plexamp. So a bit of a hassle but it seems like I now have a way to keep the app up to date.

 

Anyone successfully installed Google Chrome browser apk on the A6? Where did you get the apk from?

 

Does anyone have a working APK for Mixcloud? All the ones I'm able to get my hands on don't seem to work (either crashing app after login, or an app that won't boot properly).

Thanks in advance!

 

Got the same problem since the new firmware update, before the mixcloud-36-0-4.apk was fine working and i was able to login ... miss the ability t0 use the mixcloud apk

 

Just come across this thread. I wanted to add I sideloaded Astrill VPN to a6 successfully. It's so important as I live in China I need it to access Tidal and Spotify.

 

It’s interesting how this OS focuses on touch control over traditional remote commands, aligning more with modern smart devices. Using an Android tablet or iPad as a remote certainly brings convenience, especially when paired with the Eversolo Controllet App in scan mode. This touch-centric approach could redefine the user experience for home entertainment setups.

Sideloading apps seems like a powerful workaround, especially for those looking to expand functionality. The two methods for sideloading—either via the device's IP address or manually through Cast Mode—are straightforward for anyone familiar with APK files. However, the lack of Google Play Services and manual updates might be a dealbreaker for some users who prefer automated systems.

For those seeking reliable APKs, platforms like Apkshein offer a great resource to find compatible versions tailored for various Android OS environments. It’s a convenient way to access verified APKs and ensure compatibility before sideloading.

If this setup grows in popularity, it’ll be exciting to see Eversolo incorporate a broader range of tested apps to enhance the bundled experience!

 

Did you find a solution to use the mixcloud apk ?

Best wishes from germany.

Unfortunately not - I am just using my tablet connected via the USB input as a workaround for the time being.

 

Someone asked me the steps I used to get the latest PlexAmp installed on my DMP-A6 - thought it might be helpful to others since I had it written up.

This worked for me, on my DMP-A6. I can't guarantee that there isn't malware but there doesn't appear to be. For what I'm using the DMP-A6 for, there really doesn't seem to be a way I could be hurt by an app that has malware on it anyways. I do use multi-factor on my Plex account, and Tautulli to monitor my Plex server, and since I've been using this version on my DMP-A6 there haven't been any strange log-in attempts.

This is what I did -
1.) First, I went to the f-droid website (Google it) and on there saw that they had an app called Aurora Store. It's an open-source version of the Google store that you could use to download apps without needing to log in with your Google account.

2.) I downloaded the Aurora store App APK to my PC desktop. They have a direct link to the aurora.store_63 apk

3.) Once I had the APK I opened my web browser and went to the side-loader page for my DMP-A6

4.) I selected the Aurora store APK file I just downloaded, and let it install.

5.) On My DMP-A6 there was now a new app, under My Apps, called Aurora Store.

6.) I don't remember exactly, but the first time I opened the Aurora Store app it asked me if I wanted to log in with my Google account or Anonymously. I chose Anonymous.

7.) The Aurora Store app works just like the Google Store App. While in Aurora Store I searched for the PlexAmp app (and also the SiriusXM app which I also use). Both installed to my DMP-A6.

8.) Once the PlexAmp app was installed I switched over to that on the DMP-A6 and logged in. It's working well. And I can also remote control it from the PlexAmp on my phone (or the PlexAmp PC app too).

What's nice about the Aurora Store is that it knows what Apps you have installed, and when I opened it up just now I clicked on the Update button on the bottom and it asked if I wanted to update PlexAmp to the Dec 21 4.11.5 updated version.

If you already have one of the apps installed, and have any problems, you might want to uninstall the version you already have and install it fresh through the store. To uninstall an already installed app go to Apps, Press and Hold on the app, Uninstall

Hope this helps.
