If you enjoy the NBA, you may have recently noticed that it has been pointed out/ already posted that you can watch all the LIVE games (also condensed & highlights) of games for FREE by using the UK appstore app NBA.tv and a couple of cydia tweaks (iAP Cracker, location spoofer, locationholic). Well.....I thought maybe it could be that simple for NFL games too and what do you know, it is!!!
IMPORTANT: This guide is geared more towards US residents so if your Apple Appstore has any of these apps then you shouldn't need to make a UK account or use the location spoofing part of the guide. Just download the app you want and use IAPCracker.
Watch from your iDevice where ever you are!
Things you need:
- UK app store account (will describe how to get below)
- NFL Game Pass, NBA.tv or NHL GameCenter
- (Cydia Tweaks) iAP Cracker and a location spoofing app ie. Location Spoofer, FakeLocation or LocationHolic
INSTRUCTIONS:
(1) - From your PC (maybe it will work right on your idevice but not sure), go to this UK app store link for NFL Game Pass here.
(2) - Click the "view in itunes" tab and wait for itunes to open up to the app page. Then click the "free app" tab. You will then be prompted that this is an UK app store app and to create an account or sign in with existing apple ID. Create a new account (can't be your current Apple ID email address). You will need an UK address to create the account so just google a hotel address etc. After creating an account you can download the app to your pc (optional).
(3) - On your iDevice, open Settings>Store> and click on your Apple ID. Sign out of your current Apple account (presumably US but what ever country) and login with the UK account you just created.
(4) - Open the App Store, search for "NFL Game Pass", "NHL GameCenter" and/ or "NBA.tv" and download it.
(5) - Open Cydia and download iAP Cracker and Location Spoofer or LocationHolic (the Xsellize repo has them as well as many other repos). I prefer LocationHolic.
(6) - Open Location Spoofer/LocationHolic/FakeLocation (optional, but if you don't want Location Spoofer to ask whether to spoof an app's location then set never spoof all first, then uncheck NFL Game pass), then select to spoof "Game Pass". Set your location to somewhere like Ireland (only because the NFL Redzone has a blackout restriction in the UK). If you are setting this up for the NBA.tv app you can use something in the UK like London etc but Ireland also works fine so it really doesn't matter.
(7) - Open up NFL Game Pass and click on the "Game Pass Premium Bundle Subscription" tab. Then tap "continue without sign in" (or you can try to your NFL account login info but I have not tried that). If using it for the NBA.tv app, just select the premium league pass subscription when prompted.
That's it. Enjoy the NFL, NBA, NHL seasons!!!!
NOTE: You can log back into your normal apple account by redoing step (3) at any point after downloading the NFL Game Pass and/or NBA.tv app.
