| Google Chromecast $39 + $20 google play credit
buy one and register it between Jun 9-30 and get $20 Play credit/ device.
try registering old ones and you may get $20 as well. I got it on a CC I bought in March.
Buy at Futureshop, BestBuy, Amazon.ca etc.
edit:
sorry for lack of info. Install the CC app in your phone, tab etc. just plug in the CC to your tv and set it up for CANADA, click on the CC that shows up on your CC app. click view offers or something. it will tell you if you have an offer (success!) or nothing (fail).
click accept and it will bring you to play store and your current logged in play account will be credited.
if you are using the wrong account, log into the correct account, you can cancel and redo the check offer thing.
you have to have purchased it in canada i think. good luck on the old models ones.
credits must be used within 1 year and only on digital items like movies, games and music.. no phones tablets or other hardware.

with that $20 credit I suggest you guys get Plex for android for your chromecast
as well as cerberus, swiftkey keyboard, tunein radio pro and poweramp full version for your android device. Really useful apps imo
I also bought Camera ZOOM FX and Camscanner lol
debating if I should also buy MX Player Pro and Allcast Premium as well.

Not sure about the refund thing....never paid for an app in my life | only app I ever refunded was actually the pos revscene app years ago lol After purchasing an app or game on Google Play, you can return it within 15 minutes for a full refund.
If the 15 minute return period has passed, we recommend contacting the app developer directly. You can find an app developer’s contact information listed on an app or game’s detail page on Google Play.
Return an app within 15 minutes of purchase
On your device
Open the Google Play Store Google Play Store app.
Touch the Google Play Store Play Store icon > My Apps.
Select the app or game you'd like to return.
Select Refund.
ended up refunding the Camera FX and Tunein radio Pro for cracked versions lol, manage to refund it just on time to Il just buy the stuff that needs licensing lolol

That's a pretty hot deal.
What can you do with Chromecast nowadays? Is it still quite limited to a few video-streaming sites? What are the capabilities for root vs non-root?

whats the difference between Avia,Bubbleupupn and Allcast? they all seem to do the sames thing but Allcast is in the top paid apps section, although Bubbleupupn has the most downloads/user reviews. Im debating which of the 3 should I get. Quote:

Now I can use CC with it.

What apps did you guys end up buying with your credit? Bought Cerberus (highly recommend it) and Plex but found it too laggy for desktop to chromecast streaming.
Found a cool app called TVPortal. It's pretty much the American Netflix. Lets you watch recent shows/movies.
*Its a 1 week trial app but when you upgrade to premium it removes the trial and ads*
1. Download the APK from here
2. Install the apk file on your phone
3. Open the TVPortal app > click the search button and type "reddit"
4. It'll ask for a code and type "midnight"
5. It'll make you install the premium version that removes the ads/trial basis.
6. To start streaming shows/movies to ChromeCast, you have to buy the chromecast streaming plugin which costs $2.18 from Google Play Store.

for Plex you should play around with the streaming settings>player option which might help.
soo even if I follow ur steps for TVPortal, you sitll have to pay after the 1 week trial?
you should just get popcorn time which is like the pirated netflix lol

i'm using Showbox and Allcast Premium ($5) now. allcast seems to start up without a hitch. Avia and Bubblupupn always hang on me for some reason.
Showbox is essentially a ad free version of Crackle. there are static ads, but not commecials in the middle of your show.)
TV portal seems too cumbersome to me, having to choose servers for content that may or may not work. also you have to pay for the CC add on option on TV portal

I've tried Popcorn Time but the streaming/wait time is slow as hell lol Quote:

You were cumbersome to link us the steps/links to get the $20 credit so you shouldn't be talking 
It takes like 2 seconds to choose a link lol. If it doesn't work choose another link? Yes you do have to pay for the ChromeCast stream option on TVPortal but it costs a measely $2.......isn't that why we have the $20 credit?
Heck you could even get TV Portal+chromecast addon cracked | |
