For about a month or even more I have been trying to figure out a way how I can track my data usage,even though my data usage is unlimited I like to know how much and when I use most/least data.
Also what I wanted was to have live data usage shown somewhere on the TV screen (sometimes this way I can know if it's my internet having problems or servers are slow etc...)
So here are the things that make it work:
#1 Xposed Framework (root)
#2 Data Monitor: link:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...cmonitor&hl=en#3 xposed module : fake wifi connection (root)
Steps:
#1 Install Xposed Framework if you have not done. [Requires Root]
#2 Extract Data Monitor from Playstore and sideload it to your Fire TV.
#3 Open data monitor (set your position for live data usage[Baud Rate] remove all data cap limits IF YOU HAVE none if you do well. then you can set your data limits.
#4 Install xposed fake wifi connection module,use your mouse go to modules and select it
#5 open fake wifi connection and select all apps? well that is what I did so every app on fire tv thinks I am using wifi when using ethernet cable.
#6 select apply in xposed fake wifi , restart your FIRE TV NOW
#7 do some streaming on the net.. couple mins later check data monitor it should show UP under Wi-FI.
ConclusionYour Fire TV & Data Monitor thinks you use Wi-Fi when connected to Ethernet so this way Data Monitor can count your Ethernet Usage (as wi-fi)
