How to instal xbmc navi-x on your ipad

[johnboy1974]

What your ipad was made for- the xbox media centre(xbmc) with the naxi-x plugin. This plug in will get you football movies and tv programmes(complete seasons).

Guys i have updated this as a lot of folk have been having problems. Follow this tutorial in the exact order it is written and it will work.

Of course your ipad needs to be jailbroken. Grab your ipad and go into cydia and grab a free copy of ifile from repo.hackyouriphone.org/ Try and get version 1.9.1-1 its the latest and known to work.

next in cydia goto mirrors.xbmc.org/apt/ios press the teamxbmc icon and install the xbmc-ios.
This will put the xbmc app on your iPads home page. Press your home button and restart your ipad.

On your ipad open up your safari browser and go digital kaos and log in as usual then go to this very page you are reading right now and at the very bottom of this first post is a download link Navi-x_v37_6.zip Go ahead and touch it. It will give you an option to open this file in ifile so go ahead and select this option.
The ifile system on your ipad will now open up and a box appears with two options zip viewer and unarchiver, go ahead and press unarchiver. A black screen appears and white text starts to scroll. Once the text stops scrolling press the done button on the top right of the screen.

Alternatively on your ipads safari browser and using google as your search engine type in the search bar navi-x_v37_6.zip
it should come as first choice navi-x_v37_6.zip - google code go ahead and touch the link. Now the navi x download link comes up at the top of the screen, it says Navi-x_v37_6.zip 994kb in blue hyperlink. Go ahead and touch the hyperlink. You are now taken to a page that has an option to open in "ifile" go ahead and touch it. The ifile system will open up a box appears with two options, zip viewer or unarchiver- go ahead press unarchiver. A black screen appears and white text starts to scroll. Once the text has stopped scrolling press the done button on the top right of the screen.

Press your iPads home button and you will find the xbmc icon on your home screen. Go ahead and start it up. Let the app update itself it takes about a minute then press settings button on bottom left of the screen then press the appearance button then press the button near the top that says skin touched and change it to confluence. On the bottom right side of the screen there is a picture of a house go ahead press it.
You will see see the appearance of the app change dramitacally and it now has a shiny new blue theme. In the middle of the screen there is a task bar, go ahead and scroll it to the left till the system button lights up blue. Underneath it there are some smaller buttons, press the settings button then press the add-ons button. Now press the button that says install from zip then press home folder then press the documents button. We now see the naxi-x_v37_6.zip button so go ahead press it and it will install itself automatically. A small box appears on the bottom right of the screen to confirm that it is indeed installed.
Once again press the small house button on the bottom left of the screen and scroll the centre task bar to programs then press it.
A button appears that says navi-x so go ahead and press it to start the program. This is how you will start up the navi-x plug in from now on.
Press the button that says Navi-xtreme media portal, i reccomend the most viewed 24 hours and most viewed 7 days- enjoy.
Remember youtube has some nice tutorials on how to navigate the navi-x interface and get the most from it.

Another nice add on is icefilms. From the main xbmc menu select video then add ons then select get more. In the list that comes up, search for and instal icefilms. Once installed the program is accessed from video then add ons.

Mate I don't know how to help you any further as ive done about ten of these things in the last week and all went like clockwork. Pressing the attatchment should say open in ifile.

Try downloading it to var/mobile/library/downloads then select it and cut it.
Find the media folder and then edit then + type in navi x in the box then press create.
Scroll down to the navi x folder you just made and click on it- it goes to an empty page now press the screen and hold down then press paste.
Follow instructions as per first post from there.

[johnboy1974]

You can also try to put the zip file in var/mobile/media/navi x
Using an ssh program and a tether to your iPad.
Create the navi x folder in media first by pressing edit then + then navi x in the box that comes up then press create.

[johnboy1974]

Another option I've been told works is to send the email to Dropbox and you will get the open in ifile option too.
Instal the Dropbox from iTunes it's free and visit Dropbox.com to sign up to Dropbox account free too.

Try some of the suggestions above

[yasminandrio]

The fusion way was by far the easier, all other ways same a long way round and are hit or miss!! soon as i changed the Skins in xbmc and press in the add source with my two fingers it was so easy. I would tell everyone to do it this way, Thanks all for your help.

[megahertz187]

Make sure you press the done button after cutting the file(top right)
Make sure you have the iPad in landscape mode ie side on.
On the left side of the page it says the word "home"

Hello,

Navi x does not open... Just error as mentioned....

I have been reading and they are saying do not update your xbmc or you will get this problem with Navi-X , still trying to find out how to put an older version of xbmc back on my ipad.

"Update" all sorted I went into Settings- Appearence and changed the skin from Touched to Confluence and then Navi X works fine

Nice one xbc that seems to get it back working again I'm sure an update to sort it out with the old skin will be imminent. Good work mate.

Turn your iPad on its side to get widescreen. Ie landscape mode.

i cant find the home button on the left, i am in landscape mode, only home with the house picture.

when 'completed' i press the navi button and it says script failed.

[Tanc]

Looking forward to install navi x on my ipad. Does anyone know if its possible to add love film and sports devil in manually? I've done this on my laptop but I'm not sure how to go around it on the ipad. It's useful when the navix server is down to have direct alternative links.

Not compatible with AirPlay and mirror mode is slow and cumbersome so no.
