Hey mate, yeah you install Kodi on to the firestick through what's known as adb (android debugging bridge) wirelesslyYeah, Do I have to load Kodi and then the bluemoon build afterwards. Also do I plug the firestick into the laptop and transfer it or do I load it straight onto the firestick. Either way I haven't a clue what to do.
No worries pal, if you need any help at time feel free to ask :)Thanks, I'll watch the video now and have a go at loading it tomorrow. Thanks for your time mate.
Try giving this a read over bud:Has anyone added kodi on chrome os?
I had a chrome book a couple of years ago until i took it back after a few days.
Because its basically just a browser and everything is done online you can't do too much, anyway, i tried putting some google apps on and there were loads just not compatible.
I had a quick look online just now and it mentions installing an app called Twerk that, as i understand it will convert the apk into the correct format for the chrome os to use.
If this is the case i could put chrome os on this dog shit slow 2gb ram acer aspire one and add the kodi app.

If you need me to I can run chrome os on virtualbox and see if it's possible mate :)
I've used Ubuntu, now use a different version of Linux though but still feel I can be of use if you go down that route mate; it can do everything you would want from a desktop that you mentioned such as streaming, torrents, Kodi etc etcNever used ubuntu before but if it's an os that's basically kodi it sounds good to me...however..
It'd be great when Google play comes out on chrome is and I'm wondering weather to just wait for that especially if I can download torrent, player, streaming and games apps.
Think I'll put chrome os on a USB and try it from there for now
Has Google play still not been released yet then on chrome os mate? :)
Hmmn, have not a clue bud; I'll do some digging ;)Just had a quick look and i found an article from 24th may that it had been announced that Google play would be available for chrome os this summer. Isn't it summer now??!!
Suppose we'll have to test it :)
I've not a clue if I'm honest mate, I've never ever used chrome os so it's not something I can offer much expertise in sadly, @TCIB might have an idea bud :)"Google Play will start rolling out in the developer channel with M53 on the ASUS Chromebook Flip, the Acer Chromebook R 11 and the latest Chromebook Pixel. Over time, this will roll out to other Chromebooks in the market too. And, we've also been working with our partners to launch some great new devices specially designed for Play. Stay tuned for more details to come over the next few months".
That announcement was around May 18th at the Google i/o event. My idea was that once available, it would be available for Chromium OS too. Now I don't know if the OS are set up similar on a kernel level but I know that Chromium is just a user interface essentially so would this mean it might not work? Or is Chrome OS a user interface too based on the same kernel?
I'm punching in the dark here a bit because I don't know too much about underlying OS properties.
But potentially you could really open up the use for thousands of old netbooks. My sons old Acer Aspire One wont update to windows 10 because of the intel graphics media accelerator 3600 is not supported and Windows 7 on it just ties it in knots. I was thinking an Ubuntu OS might work well then I thought of Chrome OS, or rather Chromium and if Google Play is supported and all the apps such as Kodi then it would make for a decent little travel device with a keyboard. I've updated it it to a whopping 2gb RAM (lol) for peanuts. I'm even considering putting a small ssd in it too to increase its speed.
Hey bud,Can you Stream 3D films with the Bluemoon Kodi and would I be better buying a fire stick or box.
If you cant stream 3D films, can someone suggest an idiots guide to how to get one. Im not tech savvy at all.
Cheers in advance.
Just looked boss, there are some 3d films in phoenix mate; also I'd choose fire TV box over a stick as they are more powerful and have an Ethernet port for more stable download speeds :)Can you Stream 3D films with the Bluemoon Kodi and would I be better buying a fire stick or box.

Hey mate, after the build has installed, pull the power; this resets Kodi correctly and makes sure the build is correctly installed :)Hi guys
Just picked up an Amazon fire stick for my old man as I wanted to set it up with the bluemoon build for him. I've downloaded kodi on the fire TV stick with no issues.
I've then gone to put the bluemoon build onto it and it all looked to be working right up to the last seconds. It finished downloading and had just finished extracting. All looked great until after it had downloaded a message appeared telling me "an android has been detected."
When I switched off kodi and go back in it starts loading bluemoon but doesn't go onto the bluemoon front screen, it just take you to the kodi front screen.
Anyone experienced this before?
Yeah you first need to load Kodi on to your box using a laptop and then install the build inside Kodi; no laptop needed for that bit mate :)Youre a star aguerrrooooooo
Just off to buy a firebox.
Another Luddite question, do I load Kodi and Bluemoon build directly to the box or do I need to use my laptop.
