- I like to see next to wifi direct,dlna and miracast a chromecast share button. This could be just sharing your screen to the TV ,youtube and a presentation. At least it will be fun.

It would be nice if it would work natively, maybe with Venice and the change in BB10.

And why do so many people want google specific tools and apps for BlackBerry and get so upset that BlackBerry isn't google?
You people do know google makes their own phone OS and BlackBerry IS NOT Google.

People want their BB10 phones to work with other devices/services and don't want they phone choice becoming a limiting factor. That's why people use snap and cobalt's solution, to work around the app limitation of BB10.

BBClassic10.3.2.2639-799Radio09-05-15 01:30 PMLike 0 - After updating to 10.2.2.639 and afterwards updating the Netflix app Netflix stopped working with Chromecast. I deleted the updated version and installed several older patched versions that I still have. None worked with Chromecast.
So, to try to pinpoint the issue I downgraded my Passport to 3.2.2339 and restored my backup of that OS, which included the working Netflix v3.13. Sure enough it works with Chromecast.
I'm going to guess that there might be a change in Runtime from the OS I'm running now to the later ones I've installed. Not being a techie I really don't know the exact reason.

Could you upload the working version of Netflix so I can try it?
Posted via CB1009-07-15 01:40 PMLike 0 - If you can still run older Netflix apps which would be strange that's also a great solution .
I myself use a workaround for this problem. You will need a laptop/desktop on the same wifi, Google Chrome browser and your BB device. On the laptop you run a remote desktop or VNC server. On your phone you run the client app from which you can control your laptop to cast from Google Chrome browser. For example you can cast this way from Videostreamer, YouTube, Netflix and Plex.

By the way there is no Cast API for BB10 nor Windows Phone. So developing apps with Cast support is going to be a challenge. There is one for Google Chrome, Android and iOS.
By they way can you actually cast with Netflix? In Plex you also get the icon but you can't cast with it, no Chromecasts are found.Last edited by ChicaneBT; 09-07-15 at 02:35 PM.

Here's what you need to do: 1: Make sure you have all of Cobalt's apps including Whitelist.
2: Download the Netflix app from Google Playstore and Whitelist the apk. If it is installed then delete it.
3. Patch the apk I provided with GMaps Patcher (on your computer and copy it to your phone.
4: Install
NOTE: Make sure you have a working Chromecast app on your phone (Whitelisted and patched with Gmaps Patcher).

Let me know how this works for you, or anyone who tries this.

Posted via CB1009-10-15 06:59 AMLike 0 - When you go to install an app from the Play Store on a BlackBerry, it downloads it to the Downloads folder. Before you click Install on the second step (the BlackBerry App installation screen), exit out. Now you have the APK in your Downloads folder and you can patch or do whatever you want with it.
