Using Tmobile TVision HUB In Canada

by sprungy

My USA coworker sent one up to me for use in Canada.

To replace an aging Google Nexus Player.

Setup was smooth and glitch free. It had a fairly large (800mb) update right when it first connected.

I'm connected via the built-in ethernet adapter rather than using wifi.

Running Android 11, OS patch level October 5, 2021.

8GB device. I have 2.4GB available now

Paired beautifully with Bluetooth headphones and an Xbox controller. Stadia working excellent.

Installed 'Send files to tv' on it and my Android phone. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.yablio.sendfilestotv

Was then able to easily install MoviesHD app too

So far pretty happy with it. Runs snappier than the old Nexus player of course. Not a bad purchase for Canada if you happen to be in USA or have USA friends.

Cool. Are you subscribed to T-Vision at all? How much is it worth?

I’m looking to ditch all my STBs and go with smart players like this.

Does it have the Play Store?

Do you know if the USB-C is USB2.0 or 3.x?

The USB-C on the CCwGTV is USB2.0 which affects the performance when running apps off of an external drive formatted as internal space.
