How to install from a USB drive
Install TekPlayer from a USB thumb drive
- Copy the APK. On your computer, download the official TekPlayer
.apk. Copy it to the top level of the thumb drive and safely eject the drive. Leave the file as an APK. - Plug it into your Android TV device. On Shield TV Pro, use a USB port on the Shield. If asked, keep the drive as removable storage. Setting it up as device storage can erase the drive.
- Open the APK on the TV. Use a file manager that can browse USB storage and open APK files. Select the thumb drive and open the TekPlayer file.
- Allow the installer when prompted. In the Android TV prompt, open Settings and allow installation from the file manager you used. Return to the file and choose Install or Update. Turn the file manager’s permission back off afterward.
- Launch TekPlayer. Choose Open or find TekPlayer under Apps. For an update, install over the existing app with a build signed by the same publisher to keep your settings.
USB drive or APK isn’t showing up
Try FAT32 or exFAT on Shield TV Pro. Back up the drive before formatting. Check that the TV device can read USB storage and that the file manager has access. If Android reports a package conflict during an update, verify the APK and signing channel before uninstalling anything.
