Does anyone know a way to sideload apps on the Chromecast without installing some sketchy “file uploader HD” app?
All the guides I can find online recommend installing some random file transfer app.
Can’t get termux or f-droid, nor Firefox, chrome or even apkpure
Iirc that requires a usb connection at least in the first instance right? I guess only one way to find out if the usb c charging port on the Chromecast dongle supports any kind of data transfer
You can just do it wirelessly, just like you would with any other phone
Are you talking about the same device? Op is talking about a Chromecast, not an android TV.
The last non-AndroidTV Chromecast model was discontinued over 3 years ago. Seems reasonable to assume AndroidTV model, if OP doesn’t specify, at this point
The answer is yes it does, this is how I did it. Maybe you can prove me wrong but I don’t think I’ve ever seen a USB-C port that was incapable of data transfer, I actually thought it was part of the standard
You can do it via wifi
