For those who haven't seen, I now have means to pair and control any s-series Nordictrack bike over Bluetooth with my own bike controller. This works well and is stable, however I must provide my own display.

I'm wondering if I just install Zwift, Rouvy, Peloton, etc in privileged mode if Bluetooth pairing will work the same as any nother Android tablet. Any insight here? I'm wondering if the pairing is limited in anyway with the 3rd party apps in privileged mode. If not that should work fine for me.

I have to shout out this YouTuber (Nelson Munoz) who recently made this video public. I followed the instructions for my x32i a few days ago and it works perfectly. I am not super tech savvy and don’t have much free time to invest in unlocking the device I bought for $3K. I used other methods before, but they had issues. I wanted to share this link for others who may be in a similar situation.

I have a tablet from a 1750 and have been trying to determine whether the screen or motherboard is dead. So I have disassembled the tablet and have been searching for clues. The other night, I connected a regular USB cable to the "OTG" port and booted the tablet.

As usual, the display remained completely dark (no backlight, no evidence of display with a flashlight). However, while connected via the USB cable, a terminal emulator observed the word "READY" being repeated a few dozen times after power-on. This was at 19200 baud. Maybe this is common knowledge but I thought I'd mention it.

My theory is that this is the tablet's way of starting a conversation with the control board. I actually have a control board and might test this out.

Now I'm pretty sure the LCD is dead and remain hopeful that someone will help identify the make/model of LCD so I can replace it. Ideally I can fix the tablet and experiment with it while not risking my working treadmill.

Hi. I've been trying to fix my x22i console, but nothing seems to work. I was wondering if I could get a console from eBay for a newer model. It has the same red pin cable. The only thing missing from the newer console is the cabling for the ECG sensors on the older model's handle bars. Which usually aren't accurate.

My model is NTL29016.0.

Newer console model NTL29019.

A technician told me that as long as both have the red pin cable, that the newer console should be able to use all incline, speed, and start/stop functions.

Anyone care to comment or has had any experience with upgrading to newer consoles?

I have a "newer" 2450 Commercial treadmill. The one with the larger, 22" screen. From the factory, it is running Android 11.

When I initially attempted to get various apps running on this device, I sort of ham-fistedly ran through some of the commands in the unchained script. I never actually ran the script itself. I had a very uneven experience with the iFit app itself including:

1. Being unable to login.
2. Content not loading at all.
3. No treadmill-specific content seeming to be available.
4. Repeated prompts to allow permissions to a USB Device (later versions of iFit ask for permission to Generic HID).
5. Later versions of iFit not allowing any Treadmill control, regardless of permissions being granted.

Following another helpful discussion here with /u/xkelly999 and /u/brentl99 (I didn't get the "99" in your username memo, sorry), I decided to factory reset and try to be a little more methodical about testing what does and doesn't work for my specific treadmill.

A factory reset left me with the following apks:

• com.ifit.eru-2.1.0.1225.apk
• com.ifit.launcher-1.0.17.22
• com.ifit.standalone-2.6.81.4118.apk
• MemfaultBort.apk (probably a red herring, but it came up in the list as com.ifit.bort, so I pulled it just in case).

These versions required me to use the getresponsecode.com generator, it is not pinless, even after a factory reset. I then disabled the admin app's ability to change system settings.

I blocked updates at a DNS level, as well as via the iFit Secret Menu. Interestingly, I noticed that going to Settings -> Maintenance in iFit showed an update available, despite the DNS blocks. Clicking this "Update Available" link pushed me into iFit Admin, where I was presented with a progress bar and an "Updating" screen. That progress bar never moved (likely due to the DNS block). Further, in iFit Amin - Secret Options -> Preview Updates, It showed me the pending updates to both iFit (com.ifit.standalone), and iFit Admin (com.ifit.eru).

At this point, with access to Priveleged Mode, I went ahead and enabled Developer Options, USB Debugging, and connected the treadmill to Wifi. I pulled the "stock" APKs via ADB, and created the .wolfDev directory. I then set about to update the iFit apps to see if I'd lose access or anything.

After unblocking DNS and updating, I have the following APKs (changed):

• com.ifit.eru-2.1.1.1227.apk
• com.ifit.standalone-2.6.85.4363.apk

Without rebooting, I can still toggle Privileged Mode via the standard 10-7-10 tap sequence. The iFit app connects to their web interface. I see treadmill related exercises (to be clear I do not have an iFit subscription), and the treadmill itself works WITHOUT any sort of permissions prompting.

Following a reboot, I had the same permissions. Privileged Mode was still enabled. I could swipe up and get myself to the Android desktop. Treadmill worked without USB/Generic HID prompts.

I'll stop here, for now. I haven't installed nova/alternative launcher. I haven't installed any other streaming apps. Reading through the unchained script, I'm assuming the only commands that could have ultimately caused my previous problems lie in first three commands:

echo Disabling iFit system apps
adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.ifit.eru
echo One of three disabled
adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.ifit.launcher
echo Two of three disabled
adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.ifit.standalone

I'm not sure what differences are created when you disable the "native" com.ifit.standalone, and then install (what you would think is) the same apk linked from the wiki, via ADB or whatever other method. I would think there is no difference, but for some reason, in my case, there appeared to be.

I hope this helps somebody else in the future, but if nothing else, I've at least got my own sequence sort of worked out here. /u/brentl99 I want to thank you, again, for all your efforts here. It's a lot of work to keep this information updated. Even typing this single post was a hassle.

The manual says not to plug anything into the USB port, so I can’t power a fire stick or chomecast.

What’s strange is that I’ve gotten it to the android screen on the touchscreen potion of the treadmill, but now I can’t seem to find out how to get back (it’s on the ifit screen now)

UPDATE: Treadmill is an x22i and, after more testing, none of the treadmill functions work. More troubleshooting details in comments.

More than anything else, my wife uses the ifit google maps create route feature. She'll make a route somewhere around the globe, then run it, seeing the street view pics, elevation and stats on the screen as she runs. That said:

I ran through the unchained process this weekend so we can watch streaming videos while running (more for me) and found that in the ifit standalone app, the Google Maps create route functions fails with a lock icon and message "unavailable on this machine" when trying to save the route.

I'm assuming the issue is because this is the standalone ifit rather than a bespoke version specific to our x22i. I noticed when installing the standalone app that it asked for permissions to a generic HID. Maybe there's a x22i-specific HID that can be injected somewhere (if there's such a thing)?

Regardless.... any help on sorting through this would be appreciated, as I have been informed this functionality is considered a (much) higher priority than Netflix streaming. So if it can't be sorted, there will be yet another reset is in my future. :-/ Thx.

Used the unchained method on my x22i treadmill using https://www.reddit.com/r/nordictrackandroid/comments/zh9r4j/nordictrack_netflixamazonhulu/ and the wiki mostly (props to everyone who contributed).

Key media apps are working as expected. Just can’t login to standalone ifit app. It throws an “Oops, there was a problem logging you in” message. I can login via chromium, so creds aren’t the issue. I’ve restarted, uninstalled/reinstalled, but no love. I even disabled pi-hole to make sure it wasn’t blocking a necessary address. Without ifit, i can’t even use the manual function. Wife is not happy. :-/

Any ideas?

Other results and observations:

-netflix and disney+ working

-When bluetooth airpods were first paired, their names didn’t show up at first, just the malatamediatek name was shown. After a restart, the airpods name showed correctly.

-hardware volume controls not working. might be due to ifit not being logged in.

-Prime is glitchy when logging in, once logged in, was stuck at the select profile screen (spinning circle). i forced closed then relaunched and i was in. Since I only have one profile, maybe that it was confused. Video quality wasn’t great.

-Paramount+ doesn’t work. Gives a wrong region message.

-Hulu doesn’t work, as most people have reported. login error message

-Plex wouldn’t install. Just got a “not installed” message when I tried

-jellyfin works. But would prefer plex.

-Ifit throws an “Opps, there was a problem logging you in” message when trying to login. I restarted, uninstalled and reinstalled the linked standalone package, but same issue. Confirmed i can login via chromium.

I've been trying to setup Netflix on my parent's new NordicTrack 1750 Commerical treadmill. However, whenever I start using the browser the treadmill will open up the iFit app and try to download updates.

Since I've blocked the update servers on the router, it just hangs on the screen and I can't get out of it without a factory reset.

I made sure that the iFit Admin App did not have permissions to made system changes or draw over other apps. I uninstalled the regular iFit app. I made sure the wifi was connected from android and not the iFit app.

I've tried using adb to install Unchained. Once my computer confirmed it was installed, the treadmill would reboot and hang on the startup screen indefinitely.

I then tried to access the secret menu via the iFit app to stop it from auto-updating. It appears that no longer works, at least according to some YouTube comments I read. I tapped everywhere in that upper right corner and it didn't open.

I'm not really sure what else to do. Can anyone give me some help, please?

Thanks to u/brentl99 for this resource. I can now stream from my streaming apps while iFit is running on my new Commercial 1750, purchased December 2022.

Shame on NordicTrack for not making this possible out of the box. I don't care what your good reason is (licensing, iFit subscriptions, etc.). It's the year 2023 and it's absurd. I am embarrassed for you and especially for the poor engineers you force to implement your stupid policies.

There is perhaps too much information on the wiki and some important details missing (e.g., where you actually get the streaming apps). Also, the wiki assumes a working knowledge of networking, command line ops, and basic Android concepts, which I have from a former life but I'm sure is a bit much for some. So here is my shortened narrative and comments, in case it is useful for anyone else.

1. Access privileged mode. This was possible without reinstalling iFit. I just went to settings and did the tapping. I did have to use getresponsecode.com.
2. Install ADB on my laptop. I downloaded it here.
   1. Eru is the iFit Admin app.
3. Connect using the instructions here.
   1. I received a failed to authenticate to [10.0.0.19:5555](https://10.0.0.19:5555) warning when connecting, but it seemed to connect fine.
   2. I did not receive any on screen connection notifications that had to be accepted.
4. Using ADB, create a wolfDev directory using the command here.
   1. IIUC, this step is not actually necessary when using Taskbar, installed below.
5. Download Netflix, HBO Max, and Hulu here.
   1. I downloaded the latest "nodpi" versions for Android (not Android TV).
6. Install apps using adb install <apk>.
7. Download and install Taskbar from here, again using ADB.
   1. Enabled start on boot and freeform mode.
   2. Pinned streaming apps to recent apps bar.
8. Add the update sites here to my router's block list.

That was my experience, feel free to ask questions.

I have linked a recent iFit update to the Wiki here: https://www.reddit.com/r/nordictrackandroid/wiki/index/#wiki_ifit_standalone_apks

This may interest people running an Unchained configuration (without the ERU/Admin app) and wishing to upgrade to the latest iFit.

I just got a used x7i incline treadmill for free and the previous owner said he had all electronics replaced on it 7 years ago. He claimed to have had no issues with it but when I got it home and plugged it in, the screen is black and the unit is unusable. I hear the speakers pop when I turn the treadmill on and I've opened up the back of the console and power is going to the screen and motherboards. Any idea what could be causing this issue, and is it possible to do an aftermarket screen replacement?

I have a few pictures of a Commerical 1750 console, external and internal.

Pictures are on the Wiki here: https://www.reddit.com/r/nordictrackandroid/wiki/index/commercial_1750/

I'll be pulling off the board RF shields to see more components, but I figured I would release what I have so far. If there is removalable storage, I'll be digging into the raw media, but I have a feeling I'm not going to find any removable NVRAM.

If anyone has a "dead" console from another machine, I am interested in obtaining it for a similar effort.

Hi all,

Just tried watching an ifit workout on my nvidia shield 2017 model in the installed ifit app and it’s horrible. Constant jittering, audio cutting in and out, video pixelation etc.

By comparison the same shield runs flawlessly with all other apps, easily handling 4k high bitrate content with any other app.

It’s hard wired to the router with 1gb Ethernet and internet of 250mbps so internet connectivity isn’t an issue.

Ifit on my treadmill and my apple devices runs much better.

Any ideas If there’s an issue with shields specifically and the ifit app, or is the app generally crap on android devices?

Thanks

Received my brand new 2023 2450 yesterday and attempted to follow the wiki with a lot of problems and still have not been able to maintain privilege mode.

First start up I was able to get into Privilege mode without any issues. Disabled ERU from modify system setting and display over other apps. Blocked url on TPLink Omada controller. As soon as I connected to wifi in android, the machine attempted to update. There was no way to stop it, only to minimize the screen. iFit app started and overtook my screen and I was unable to get into privilege mode after.

I did not check firmware before the first factory reset so upon reset ERU shows

Adminapp: 2.0.5.1213

iFit Launcher 1.0.17.22

Softwarenumber 444974

Factory reset without any issue. Tried one more time and same result. Can't remember when but when I tried to get into ERU secrete menu by following steps, the 5 taps did not display the secret menu.

After about 3rd or 4th reset, (I really can't remember exactly what I did at this point but this attempt got me the furthest) I disabled ERU from modify system setting and display over other apps, uninstalled the ifit app then connected to internet. Even though iFit (or the update screen-can't remember) started up again, I still had access to bottom android buttons so I was able to get back into android. Installed apkpure and set to boot on startup. .wolfDev using Termux. Installed es file manager to make sure .wolfDev is there. Rebooted. iFit icon shows up, unable to do anything. Can still swipe up to access android icons but unable to get into android. The esFile bar shows up in the lower left but can't do anything with it. But now I can open up ERU and get into special menu and disable autoupdate but that doesn't do me any good if I can't get into android.

I factory reset my machine again and figured I'd post here to see if I'm missing something.

Hi,

Has anyone been able to work out how to pair treadmills with screens eg s45i to ifit apps running on external devices? Eg mobile, tablet etc?

Built in functionality only allows to connect to speakers etc from TM to Device, rather than Device TO TM?

Admin mode access doesn’t seem to support any pairing either.

Any suggestions please?

i just got my proform carbon t10 unboxed and setup, what is my best option?

Unchained ADB script or wolfDev directory in /sdcard?

i did not connected it to wifi yet, out of box i was able to access Privileged Mode using taps method easily and it stayed there after switching off.

App Version 2.6.29.1468

Admin 1.4.0.196

iFit Launcher 1.0.12

Android 7.0

i want to get latest apps/Android versions while staying in PM pin code free, what is best method to use?

Update; here is what i ended up doing, just in case anyone want to do:

DNS Block the Update Servers on router ifit-wolf.s3.amazonaws.com ifit-wolf.s3-cdn.ifit.com

Entered Privileged Mode (out of box it didnt ask for any response code & stay after reset)

iFit Secret Menu to Disable iFit Updates

Android System Tweaks (google IfNullThen - Shame on IFit)

• Go into the Android “Settings”
• Go into the “Apps & Notifications” section.
• Go into the “Special App Access” section.
• Go into the “Modify system setting” section.
• Find and turn off this privilege for the ERU
• Go back to “Special App Access” section
• Go into the “Display over other apps” section
• Find and turn off this privilege for the ERU

connect wifi in android system (not ifit app)

open system included browser to visit nordictrackandroid wiki on treadmill screen

.wolfDev using Termux: this did not work Termux said cannot write directory, so i just did .wolfDev file manually file in the /sdcard directory using file browser downloaded from apkpure (Fx file browser) i think i really didn't needed this but just in case.

uninstalled iFit old app shipped with the treadmill (not ERU), downloaded & installed "Standalone iFit supporting Jan 2023 iFit back end changes" from wiki.

logged in started workout everything is fine speed/incline auto adjust with videos. turnings machine on/off everything is there no issues, system on start boot to tablet desktop and lunch apps from icons.

Apps i downloaded so far:

Brave browser (for no ads in webpages) and Apple music app (works fine playing music in background while ifit in use Infront), all latest versions from apkpure. Youtube app recent versions wont install might have to find older version that still works.

Floating Apps from wiki installed fine but i didn't use it for now/ didn't have to yet.

I have a Norditrack S22i bike. I went through the steps to run the unchained script. When the script runs only two apps are disabled.

Shell cannot change component state for com.ifit.launcher/null to 3

After everything installs I see an iFit icon. When I click on the icon I get a white screen with a flashing iFit logo. The app won't load past this screen.

I installed the iFit standalone version listed in the Wiki. The app takes a long time to open. When the app opens and I log in there are no cycle workouts on the home screen or my favorite/recent cycle workouts. Also I receive a message that there is an error connecting to a treadmill.

For now I am going to modify the unchained scrip and remove the three disable commands, install the apks and find another way to block updates. This should keep the original iFit app.

I'm guessing the standalone apk is treadmill specific. Is there a standalone cycle apk that will work?

I have a new(old stock) fs7i and I've created some runs on the itrack site but I can't get them into the machine no matter what I have tried. This model is also on the list of hardware that they're not going to support after April 2023. Is there anything I can do to get maps or tracks or something on this model after this date or add workouts from the site or something like that? All contact with iFit has been that I won't be able to access anything after they drop support.

Hi crew,

I have recently installed apkpure on my x32i after reading a bit on here and following a YouTube tutorial. That all seemed to go well.

I have installed some apps, including Netflix which works as I would hope.

I also installed YouTube and Spotify hoping to be able to use them while exercising. However, attempting to open the YouTube app just returns the error message “YouTube stopped working”… while doing the same with Spotify just gives a momentary black screen as if it’s trying to load and then it stops and just returns back to the previous screen.

If anyone knows what the issue might be or has some suggestions, I’m all ears.

Thanks in advance!

Hi, if anyone of you have the firmware of nordictrack treadmill, please let me know. It is usually sold as Sd card and sometimes sent by nordictrack support for free to customers in warranty. If you happen to have any firmware for any Nordictrack treadmill, let me know. I can even provide you a lot to upload it to my box account.

The specific model I’m looking is for c990 treadmill or the display part number is 360526, or model number Mp7qcfs

So I recently purchased the t7.5 from a friend, he's not used it for a while and after reading the ifit subs I'm scared to connect t it to the Internet incase the update bricks the console.

Is it possible to block the update urls with pihole? If so does anyone have the urls I need to block. From what I have found there are only 2 is this correct? ifit-wolf.s3.amazonaws.com ifit-wolf.s3-cdn.ifit.com

Once these are blocked am I safe to connect the treadmill to the Internet?

Thanks in advance

I have an x32i Nordictrack treadmill with the Android Console installed, and automatic updates disabled. The treadmill worked without any issues all last last year.

This morning I started up the treadmill for the first time in a couple of months and received the "Whoops!" error message on my home screen. I can load the workouts page, load a workout and complete it without any problem. The workout is also saved to my profile in the iFit app.

The same thing happens on a separate account.

I checked the status of the iFit servers and they seem OK. If there's no firmware update causing the issue, I'm not sure why I can't load the home screen. My guess is that something changed on the iFit side and that without a firmware update, I can't load the home screen.

Anyone have any ideas?
