Apple TV 2 Flash Black

[HenMaster6000]

Does anyone have experience with the $19.95 aTV Flash black beta? If it works, I'd buy it, but how's the install? Does anyone recommend it?

Sus out the GeenPois0n Jailbreak it's free and add more features than aTV Flash.

I have just used greenposion to jailbreak & also added Apple TV 2 Flash black.

download greenpoison pc or mac


1. Plug in your ATV 2 with the usb, and run GreenPoison.

2. Plug in the powercord for 3 sec, and unplug.li

3. Hold down menu and play / pause for 7 seconds.

4. When its in DFU, click "Jailbreak"

5. Once its completed, let it stay plugged in for atleast 40 seconds before removing.

6. The first time you start up your ATV 2 after the jailbreak a new menu called Greenp0ison will show up, from here you can install various apps including XBMC.

Why pay for atv flash ? when it does nothing more than whats free. Total rip off.

I am fairly sure you dont get a web browser with just using greenpoison amongst other things ? Plus atv flash is only the beta version so there is more to come.

Is it any easier to set up? Sounds like you have to jailbreak either way -- it won't do it for you. XMBC looks like a standalone media center versus aTV Flash which kind of adds on to what's there. The web browser thing looks cool, and it'd be nice to use my iPad as a keyboard.
