What's new

Connection icon by the clock (by @vijayyaso in #3)

  • A small icon at the top right shows if the TV is on Wi-Fi (with signal bars), Ethernet or offline. It updates live.
  • Press it to open the network settings.
  • Optional Bluetooth, Sound and Picture shortcuts can sit next to it. They're off unless you pick them: sh install.sh <TV_IP> "" "bluetooth,sound,picture"

Uninstall and App info from the menu (by @Rozariozaro in #4)

  • Hold OK on an app you installed to get Uninstall (Android asks you to confirm).
  • Apps that came with the TV get App info instead, where you can turn them off.

check.sh: keep your TV cleaned up (by @Rozariozaro in #4)

  • TV updates sometimes switch things back on. sh check.sh <TV_IP> checks the home screen is still set up, and --fix puts it back.
  • You can also give it your own list of changes to keep.

Safer setup (by @Ansub in #6)

  • install.sh now only turns off launchers on a known list. Settings, setup apps, System UI and core TV apps are never touched.
  • It waits 15 seconds after turning a launcher off, so a quick restart can't undo it.
  • The prompt in the README has a "never turn off" list and asks the AI to restart the TV once and check it starts before finishing.
  • New Help entry: what to do if a TV gets stuck restarting.

Fixes

  • HDMI tiles open the input on Google TVs that send HDMI to Google's own input player, instead of a blank "Hello World!" screen. Reported by @arevindh in #5, fixed by @Ansub in #8. Every other TV keeps the v1.1.0 behaviour.
  • README explains why the YouTube button on the remote can stop working on some Google TVs, and what to use instead (by @Ansub in #7).

Thanks all!

Already on an older version? Run the same command. It updates the home screen and keeps your app list.
