    Don't worry about BlueTv anymore (dead fish now).Because we need google service in the box to running RSS player apk ,So we need to change box firmware to Tvpad 4 ver. 5.066 (it cover google service )

    Does the RSS Player require mouse to use on TVpad 4 v5.066?

    I don't think Ray knows what he is talking about.

    1. You want the RSS Player "ANDROID TV" version.
    2. It requires google play services (Avaialable only on 5.066 firmware)
    3. Mouse is not needed for this version of RSS Player (although you'll have to hit left button more)
    4. His share drive link is EMPTY!

    Maybe Ray is referring to an older version of RSS Player that didn't require Google Play? or RSS Media Player?
  • tylerlee, your step 2) Unplug the power, and keep pressing "3 bars" button on your remote.
    If the unit unplugged(no power), how can it responses the remote command? ??

    On TWRP boot loader, you can do a full backup of your BlueTV firmware before you flash the TVPad4 firmware.

    Does it will erase my blue TV old system can't restore back. Blue TV box has restore option inside the system.

    Ray,

    Your link for the file is empty, so I don't know what version of rss player you're talking about. The one we pointed out here is from the google play store. It works with the standard remote, no need for mouse. This specific rss player (android tv version) requires google play services.. Older versions of rss player that requires a mouse to navigate didn't need google play services.

    Nice work, although I prefer adaware. You're making it so easy for everyone, lol. If tvpad4 gets blocked from rss player then I blame you. haha

    In case anyone is using the older remote, the one with white buttons, this trick won't work. You have to use the black button remote that came with the tvpad4. "3 bars" is the menu button.

    Ok guy the true story is inside of google play store you will find it two version ( RSS Player & RSS Player (Android TV). If you don't change BlueTv firmware to Tvpad 4 firmware then you must install this RSS Player and play around with the mouse.otherwise install this RSS Player (Android TV) in Tvpad 4 firmware then you are free to go............

    You will need:
    1)Micro SD Card that can read by the box.(format fat32)
    2)USB mouse

    Download the firmware(new with adblock):
    https://mega.nz/#!hOoCjSpJ!6-5d-ZeJsCi-b12fWLQmJ-vH5ZDwtM6dNlHgeklUFgQ

    Download TWRP boot:
    https://mega.nz/#!geZQQY5K!ICzRX04vVkqIIX_o-N2YYXMryvM59NUtBdgD1dJaYOU

    unzip the firmware to SD card with folder.
    copy recovery.img (TWRP boot file) to the of your SD Card (Do not put this in a folder).

    1) Insert the SD Card to BlueTV
    2) Unplug the power, plug the power and keep pressing "3 bars" button on your remote while boot up.
    3) If everything correct, you will see TWRP screen like this:



    4) USE USB mouse to click restore
    5) Click on Storage and select External SD

    6)Select the image folder "2018-06-08--5.066_rooted_RSS"


    6) Swipe to Restore
    7) After Finish, reboot and enjoy.


    For whatever reason, I don't see the firmware folder when I chose external SD storage. Any idea? My SD card root only has "2018-06-08--5.066_rooted_RSS_AdBlocked" folder and recovery.img
