What process are you following to install apps?
I do something similar to this but sounds like I'm using a different set of steps:
I've had little success with trying to install Google Play Services/Play Store and any app requiring it.
I eventually installed the APKPure app as it was the easiest method for installing apps, and have AirScreen, Plex, Disney+, Netflix, and Hulu all working well.
Id suggest some forearm straps for main tread if you dont have access to a strong helper.

I found that some carbon fiber grip and really tightening it down did the trick.
The feet are a bit of a pain in the ass to attach. Super simple to build besides that.
And if you start training with Ash in Hawaii, give her a chance. She's a bit annoying at first but she's grown on me. Haha 👍
My only real complaint is the seat. It's bad. Much like my actual bicycle.

Someone here rec'ed it to me. Much nicer.
I saw your post a month ago when I had the same question, but had no answer to offer at the time. I've had this treadmill for a month and have been frustrated trying to come up with a creative solution for a desk, since most "universal" treadmill desk mounts are expensive, ugly, or won't work with all the (very nice-looking) rounded edges and angles of the Commercial 1750.
This was delivered today from Amazon and while it's not 100% perfect, it feels sturdy and I'm happy with it. The C-clamps attach to the handlebar that goes across between the arms, even with the handlebar having a slight curve to it. I had to remove the cup holders but I wasn't using them anyway.
Just replace the seat. I put this one on my bike: https://smile.amazon.com/Gincleey-Comfort-Replacement-Absorbing-Universal/dp/B07T87PB7W/ref=sr\_1\_1\_sspa?crid=173W7BGGJWYY5&keywords=wide+bicycle+seat&qid=1659636326&sprefix=wide+bicycle+seat%2Caps%2C92&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&...
I have the S15 and bought these clips ins off of amazon - made a HUGE difference

I also bought a pair of Tommaso shoes off of amazon. Everything works great!
Thanks! I ended up getting this:

The power supply adapter is 9V 2A. The connector ended up being incorrect, but I took the bike apart and hardwired the power supply to the bike. It works beautifully.
The standard pedals with my 2021 bike tried to break my wife's leg when it completely seized up after barely more than a month of use.
We got these as a replacement and we love them. Some of us have clipless cleats, some don't, and this works great for both.

The pedals, and a pair of SPD cleat compatible shoes. Usually the shoes will come a pair of cleats.
I would recommend getting a pair that is more walkable. Especially if you have floor surfaces you don’t want to scar. Some are more minimalist where the clear sticks out quick a bit when walking, and others have a decent amount of actual shoe tread.

That is my favorite pair. Easy to walk in. I would scout several pairs if I were you. I actually bought 3 and tried them all on and sent back the 2 I didn’t like as well.
I’ve had no issues since I replaced my pedals. I just bought some generic pedals off Amazon

I no longer like the one I recommended when you posted. I just got this one and it’s a million times better. Turns out the nose is unnecessary for stationary bikes.
The OG seat was unbearable for my fat ass. My husband asked around and ordered this one. It’s better, and I can complete a short workout, but it’s still far from ideal. Right now I just wear double padded bike shorts and pray my butt will adjust. But I’d love to find one that was comfier.
The stock seat was very uncomfortable for both my wife and I, so we needed a seat that worked fir both of us. We tried a couple Specialized such as Power Comp, which was ok for me but a no-go for my wife. We’ve settled on the Selle Royal Respiro Athletic for 2 weeks and so far it’s been ok for both of us.
If the Selle was not a good fit we were going to try a ISM Metro or Berkley seat next.
Thanks for the reply. Are you referencing the bottom of the seat itself? The clip which the seat rails fasten to is metal, with a metal screw and the rails are metal. The only thing that is plastic on the original seat is the bottom of the actual seat.
We did replace the original seat recently with this one: https://www.amazon.com/Roguoo-Comfortable-Bicycle-Memory-Waterproof/dp/B089GPKYX7
I can't answer with a number but should be fairly low. It's not like a treadmill using a powerful motor to drive a belt carrying your weight. Resistance is magnetic and console should be very low power. Is this something you need to know before purchasing? If so there are devices you can plug between the bike and the outlet which will tell you everything you need about the power draw. Perhaps getting one of those would get you a precise answer. link to amazon
If you have never ridden a bike before they are a bit uncomfortable. It should get better. I added a gel seat cover and it made a difference. Amazon has several options. Here is what I got.

I would recommend it. You can get bike shorts as well.
oh, and is there any difference between these two bikes? or are they exactly the same?

This is official NT stuff, but there are cheaper alternatives.

Chose the one that has 'iFIT>' on its icon (the first one). The current version on apkpure should be 2.6..73
I suspect it is the same Android app being used for Android phone and all NordicTrack equipment that has an Android tablet.
Rather than going into the issues, the biggest issues were their customer service. I realize ALL of these companies nowadays have lousy customer service and of course they're all blaming it on the pandemic...right! Anyway, check out some of these good/bad posts.

I've had it about a year and haven't had any problems so far.
Replaced my original seat with this one Wittkop Bike Seat from Amazon. I actually bought all three, what works best for me is either the MTB or Touring Night and day between the original seat.
Yes we also replaced out seat. I am thinking of trying to go back to the original seat now that I am over a 100 rides into it. The stock seat, while not comfortable, is designed nicely for cycling.
Did you say you wanted to ride in socks...haha. Once you really get into it and increase the level of rides, shoes are a necessity.
I replaced the stock pedals, not because they were uncomfortable, but because I wanted the ability to clip in with cycling shoes. Really takes it to the next level.
You might like these as they are upgradeable to clip in, also having the ability to use the toe clips like the stock ones, but the surface you feet go on is much smoother.
I got this one, it’s great. No discomfort whatsoever
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B086ZZ1WRD/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1
Also changed out the pedals for clip ins
The brake “hood” covers the brake lever on a road bike. It’s on the top of road bike handlebars, like a large rubbery bump that sticks up.
Third party just means they’re not made by Nordictrack or Proform.
These are the ones I’ve seen, although I haven’t used them yet myself.

I should get a commission on these.
I got this one. It fit all the specs in the manual:

Put a little of this on the posts and it works great
I think you're right. Can you post a picture of the sticker on the adapter? I always like to have two or three of these on hand for testing and providing to clients when a power adapter has failed. Just be sure not to adjust the dial too high
I don’t like the strap style pedals and I already had clip shoes.

Here is the one we bought for the time being. My wife hated to ride bikes in the past because of seat issues. She likes this one so far and has ridden the bike everyday for the past couple of weeks. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07QHTZHXD/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Had the same issue and was really annoyed but I have a fix that is super easy and doesn't require you to take any thing a part! All you'll need is a thin strip of anti-slip rubber. You can find a sheet cheap on amazon and cut it down. Just slide a small strip into the back of the seat post (with a little hanging out so you can always take out easily for adjustments) tighten the seat post as normal and that does the trick! Figured if that stuff works well on fastening bike racks it works just as great on this. Hope this helps-- did a quick google search to find something similar to what I had at home.

#3 You can find and replace that hex screw with a hand knob screw. Something like below but you will need to find that screw thread and length first. You can remove the screw and take it to a home depot or look it up online.
There are some videos on youtube of people getting it to work on other tvs that are not LG. I would imagine it has more to do with authentication protocalls. Someone else recently posted that he got casting to work with the microsoft dongle below which might be an alternative for you.
Mine is the very first version of the Microsoft wireless display adapter. Model CG4-00003.

the reviews specifically state it will work with the 4 hole plate
Will this fit Nordic track 4 hole models?
A: Yes! This will work on all Nordic Track stationary bikes that use 4 bolts to attach the stock seat to the bike.
Thank you for your inquiry!
I just got some spd pedals and shoes from a local bike shop. The ones I got couldn't use a wrench tho, so I ordered these if I ever need to swap them to the cages it came with. Ive seen some pedals recommended here that have spd clips on one side and flat for the other if you want to use sneakers
Even when running I lightly touch the crossbar so not to drift left or right. I have no sense of balance without visuals. So either I walk/run looking directly at the console or I'd drift out of the treadmil. But one thing that motivates me is to watch Netflix or Twitch while exercising.
On the heart rate, I have these below. Will they work?

I have a different model of bike but was in a similar position since I hated the seat and wasn't sure if I could swap the whole thing out or not. I ended up buying a seat cover from Amazon that slips over the existing seat. It's made a huge difference for me.
We purchased the Wittkop Bike Seat. Works better for us.

I flip mine on and off with this plug (below) that I bought off of Amazon. I thought "for $2K they can't even provide an on/off switch?" I did not like pulling the plug every time I worked out and I didn't want to leave it on 24/7.

Bought this one...

My girlfriend and I both find it way more comfy than the stock one
I use one of those adjustable bath trays for a walking desk. It has little rubber bits on the underside which keeps it from moving. So far its been a great solution that can be easily removed when I want to run.
hey, i ordered this pronto after getting my bike. works great. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01H71AZ36/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Seems good enough! It’s pretty comfy but does slide a bit if you’re spinning hard.
