Read an interesting article from WIRED.com, "Locked Out of ‘God Mode,’ Runners Are Hacking Their Treadmills." NordicTrack customers were watching Netflix using a simple trick-until the company blocked their access. Tried to block our access...

Hey Nelson, when I’m in privilege mode I can download apps. However, when I try to install the apps, I get an error message APP NOT INSTALLED. What am I doing wrong?
Anthony, I am not certain why you are getting this error message? I would check to make certain the apk files you are downloading are compatible with your Android architecture.
How do you get the floating apps downloaded on machine? I have the S22i
Monica, watch Part 2 of NOT LOCKED OUT. It will have instructions on how to install both the Taskbar and Floating Apps. Let me know if you have any questions after watching Part 2.

I’m trying to install Netflix on my x32i treadmill. It has version 9. I’ve tried downloading Netflix from apk and directly from the Netflix help center. Neither work. I get an error that “this device is not supported by the app”. Any for this?
Hi Joanne,
I have a newer Netflix video for 2022 that shows you two different ways to install Netflix. If you have a newer model treadmill/bike/etc., most likely you will need to download a Netflix apk file from a different site. Here is the newer video.
th-cam.com/video/-1UNyvdULfo/w-d-xo.html
Check the description for a Table of Contents that will have chapters designated. One chapter addresses the device not compatible error.
@@NelsonMunoz0714 Thank you so much for your quick reply! Unfortunately I followed all of your steps and I am still unable to watch netflix. The APK Pure Netflix version (as far as I can tell) supports 8.26.0 and my treadmill is version 9. Have you heard of anyone else having this issue?
Joanne, I thought I responded to you but can't seem to find where? I searched APK Pure and found a version 8.23.0 build 12 40200. It is an apk versus an xapk. Much easier to install and did not require any extra software. Try it out and hopefully it will solve your issue.
Have you uploaded the video to install the floating apps yet?
Final edits in progress. It will be out this weekend.
Lindsey, my laptop went kaput on me again. This seems to be a recurring theme. I will continue to move forward as I think I know how to navigate around my laptop's limitations. Found a utility where I can max out my fan speed and also bought a laptop "chill mat" that adds an extra set of fans to the underside of my laptop. Will get back at it today after I get home from my 9-5 job.
I assume this method will still not provide access to the Android set up that was available in privileged mode? Pairing Bluetooth ear buds is more stable when done through Android than through iFIT.
Michael, to be honest I have not tried pairing Bluetooth headphones/ear buds using the Floating App. It would be preferred to use privileged mode to pair Bluetooth ear buds.
Wow, that would be really cool to pair eat buds if possible. I didn't even think of it till you mentioned it Michael :)
Michael, actually a smart subscriber was able to figure out how to Cast using the Floating Apps. You might be able to pair using the same method. Here was the fix action he provided.
-----
The native casting fix is quite easy to implement. After the taskbar apk is installed, everyone will have the ability to use native casting. The way to access it is as follows;
-With the taskbar opened at the bottom of the screen, click on the time shown in the bottom right corner. This will bring up the settings menu from above. From this menu, edit the settings menu, and add the casting icon to the menu of the available settings. Once the casting icon is added, just click on the time shown in the bottom right-hand corner of the taskbar. The settings menu will appear above, then simply press the native cast icon, and the casting will begin.
Shoot me an email at DoctorNT0714@gmail.com and in the Subject line write, "PM-Help." I will make certain to send you info to help you get back to the Android Desktop.
i don't have the weekly stats thing. where else can you find the floating app?
Hi Yolanda, don't concentrate on the Weekly Stats. I was using weekly stats just to point to a specific place on the screen. I might as well have said "If you see the icon by the lady's head."

As for the Floating App, you have to install it. I give instructions in Part 2. Here is a link to Part 2:

So I donated ! How do I watch the privileged video #3 ? Thanks
Hi Summit. Thank you for the donation. It is much appreciated. In order to watch the part 3 video, you must be a member of the TH-cam channel. Here is a link with additional information on how to become a member. www.TH-cam.com/c/NelsonMunoz0714/join
Can you install Netflix using the floating taskbar without going into privilege mode? If so, could you do a video on how to do this? Thank you.
Agreed - Seems pointless if you can't get into privilege mode. I thought that was the only way to install apps in the first place.
Anne, YES, you can install Netflix using the Floating Apps in leui of using Privileged Mode. The video I am finishing up tonight will have the info you are looking for.
Hi Master, though Privileged Mode makes the task of installing Netflix a bit easier, you can install Netflix using the Floating Apps. I will go thru the steps in my next video.
How about TH-cam or a Browser?
@Master The NEC , TH-cam and a browser are already incorporated in Floating Apps.
Hey Nelson, just emailed the fix to you!
Rod, I was not able to see the fix action you described?
Good Evening, I am looking to find a way to utilize the native cast so I can watch the Ifit videos on my bigger TV. Can we find a way to create a shortcut to the native built in casting eventhough privileged mode is locked out?
Hi Rod, that is a good idea and I will try to find a way to see if it is possible. It would make life easier for a lot of us.
@@NelsonMunoz0714 Thanks Nelson, the 3rd party casting programs just aren't that good!
Hi Nelson,
I figured the casting issue out. This should help out a lot of the Ifit community that rely on casting. Let me know how to share this information with you.
@Rod Taylor , that is awesome! If you can send the info to my email: DoctorNT0714@gmail.com
... that would work best.
@@NelsonMunoz0714 Got it, just emailed the fix to you!
This doesn’t work with the most recent update.
Hi Dave, Dr. NT here... I have great news for you!
-----
Though recent updates from iFit have disabled our machines, making them only able to work with iFit trainer-led video workouts, there is still a way around all these lockdowns.
-----
If you are still interested in getting past the Privileged Mode (PM) code, send me an email to: DoctorNT0714@gmail.com and in the Subject line write "PM-Help." I'll respond and provide you the info you need to gain back control of your smart exercise machine and still receive iFit updates; the best of both worlds. Sincerely, Dr.

How put floating apps on the screen?
With best regards
Yes. It is a great idea but I can’t find it anywhere! Thank you.
bynny31, I hope to have the full video with steps on how to install floating apps and taskbar out tonight or tomorrow. My apologies, I only had time for a preview video.
Anne, didn't have time to put out the entire video so figured a preview video would be better than no video. Look for the full video with instructions on installing Floating Apps and Taskbar to be posted either tonight (if possible) or tomorrow.
@@NelsonMunoz0714 Looking forward to it!
Hi Anne, trying to get back to all the comments to see if everyone was able to watch the Part 2 video and successfully install the additional apps. Hope it worked for you with no issues.
I don’t have that icon next to my weekly stats
Jaynay, you have to install the Floating Apps. I am working hard on my next video that will run you thru the steps to install the Floating Apps and an additional app called Taskbar.
Hello nelson. I saw all the videos. No solution for me. I have to call to the number I see st the screen to ask for a code to unlock?
Matias, if you have a newer machine with a pinhole, you would not beed to call for a code. On the other hand, if you have an older machine without a pinhole, then Yes, you will have to call for the code.
@@NelsonMunoz0714 i have a machine with pinhole but I tried many time with the reset and no works. It take much time loading but when I try with the privilege mode no work. i dont know what to do. I saw a lot of videos but still can't. Sorry for disturbing you. Yo have email o something like I can call? I pay you for you service and help no problem just want to fix it
@Matias, you must block the iFIT websites from your router. If you are not comfortable configuring your router, I have a new video coming out where you can block the iFIT updates without having to configure your router. Look for that very soon, possibly this weekend.
Ok sir I will try with that and let u know and wait for the new video. Thanks you very much
Matias, if you truly want to get the most out of your machine, then keep reading. Instead of having to configure your router to block iFIT updates and then install apps to bypass privileged mode, now there is a much easier solution.
I just released a new video that allows you to continue getting iFIT updates and you still have easy access to privileged mode. No more codes... no more calls to iFIT customer service... no more BS. Your machine will be back to normal with privileged mode enabled. In order to view this video, you have to be a member of the channel.

Any new fixes for these damn paper weights?
GT, check out Parts 2 and 3 to gain back control of your smart exercise machine.
@@NelsonMunoz0714 You are still able to access screen sharing with this?
Gold, if you are referring to casting from the treadmill/bike, then YES, Iam still able to cast to a smart TV. It doesn't work well, as the video seems to skip frames and the quality is not as good as what you see on the exercise machine.
