Any usable Xfinity TV APK I can sideload?

by brad1242

I got a sony x750D not too long ago and just tried to sideload the APK for the latest version of Xfinity TV - it crashes on startup. Xfinity TV Go won't install so I assume that's defunct at this point - does anyone have a working Xfinity TV APK I can sideload?

Edit: I have found a few APK's that allow me to get to the Xfinity "Get Started" front screen, but when I click "Get Started" it opens Playstation Video. I've tried several times, clearing the cache in PS Video app etc, but everytime I click Get Started it reopens PS video asking for permissions.... thoughts?

I can give you a beta version of the app made for androidTV. UI is not polished but usable.

If you have a laptop you should be able to screen cast to your TV's built in google cast feature while you are watching their content through a browser at https://tv.xfinity.com

Comcast is blocking screen casting of the Xfinity TV app on Android phones now. They also changed their login system some months ago which broke all older versions of the app, some of which could be sideloaded on various Android devices. I'm sure if they could figure out a way to block screen casting from a web browser playing their content on a destkop or laptop they would block that too.

Any convenient way to stream their content to a TV is in direct competition with their ability to rent out multiple HD cable boxes to single homes for an addtional fee for each box.

What really pisses me off though is the blocking of their login credentials with network's own apps like HBOGo, thus removing one of the perks of subscribing to HBO that virtually all non Comcast customers get to enjoy.
