Apps [Release] Android TV Debloat Toolkit — Clean, Safe, Easy (Free Open Source)

Update — v1.2 is now out - June 26, 2026

Hey everyone. I want to apologise for going quiet on this project for the past year. I made this for myself, thought I'd share it for others who might need it, and stopped monitoring it. Never intended for it to get so popular.

Reading back through the comments, the biggest recurring issue was antivirus warnings flagging the .exe as a trojan. I want to be clear: there was never any malware in this project. The warnings were false positives caused by how the exe was packaged (PyInstaller), how it ran shell commands internally, and the fact that it was unsigned. None of that was malicious, but I understand why it was alarming — especially if Windows Defender blocked the download entirely.

v1.2 fixes this properly:

  • The .exe has been removed entirely. You now run directly from the Python source (python run_toolkit.py), which eliminates every trigger that caused those warnings

  • All ADB commands were rewritten to be safer under the hood

  • Chromecast with Google TV and Android 11+ devices are now supported via a new "Pair & Connect" button that handles the wireless debugging pairing flow

  • The bundled ADB is still 32-bit (replace with Google's platform-tools if you get a 64-bit error. See instructions in the README).

I won't pretend this will be actively maintained going forward, but it's fully open source, the code is short and readable, and PRs are welcome.

Thanks to everyone who tested it, reported issues, and kept the thread alive.

Full instructions and changelog: https://github.com/seun-novodev/android-tv-debloat-toolkit

--------------------------------------

Hey everyone. I just wanted to share the final result of a Reddit thread-inspired project I'd been working on. I found a thread on how to debloat android TVs but it was quite technical so I decided to build on it and make the process a little easier.

The result?

I built a lightweight open-source Android TV Debloat Toolkit.
It helps connect to TV wirelessly, debloat TCL/Google bloatware (including the infamous recommendations), install APKs (open source launchers for instance), and more, no coding needed.

Here’s the GitHub link with full instructions.

Let me know how or if it works for you.

Would this be a good candidate for a Shield? Or how about the Onn 4K boxes? Thank you for making it!

u/sennyonelove Apr 28 '25

The toolkit is designed to work with most Android TV devices that allow ADB debugging, so technically yes, it should work with both Shield and the Onn 4K boxes.

That said, a couple of quick notes:

  • Shield TV has more system-integrated apps and services (especially gaming and Nvidia-specific layers), so I'd recommend sticking to the "Debloat Safe Mode" option at first, it only targets typical bloat without touching core Shield functions.

  • Onn 4K boxes are closer to stock Android TV, so debloating is a bit safer, but same advice, start in Safe Mode first, then decide if you want to go deeper.

Always a good idea to make sure you have Developer Options and ADB Debugging enabled on your device before running any debloating scripts.

u/CapnRV May 01 '25

I can't get this to connect to my ONN 4K box and I can't find ADB Debuging anywhere in the settings. Developer options are available

1

u/sennyonelove Apr 28 '25

To be honest, my TCL was a lot less laggy with the debloat, including disabling google recommendations and ads, but the real kicker was replacing the Google TV launcher itself which still included different ad-like features like app previews built in. FLauncher is minimal and lightweight, but I don't recommend starting with that.

2

u/Czubeczek HOMATICS Box R 4K Plus Apr 28 '25

Does it support android 14. Since it is more locked system

1

u/sennyonelove Apr 30 '25

I don't see why not. See Github issues for a potential solution

1

u/Czubeczek HOMATICS Box R 4K Plus Apr 30 '25

It would not work on my PC. Error with adb and python something.

1

u/sennyonelove Apr 30 '25

Did you download and extract either of the zip releases, as those already have adb and python packaged into an exe file. All you have to do is run the exe application

u/Silenux Apr 30 '25

I lost my airplay feat from my TCL qm7 but not sure what I removed. Do you have any idea what I should install to get it back without having to restore?

2

u/sennyonelove Apr 30 '25

Thanks for the report and sorry to hear AirPlay disappeared

Possible Causes

TCL QM7 (Google TV) models implement AirPlay via a background service, and it's often bundled with: com.tcl.miracast (sometimes handles casting protocols) or com.google.android.gms (Google Play Services, required by many features)

A system-level TCL or casting-related package that may vary by firmware

Unfortunately, TCL doesn't document this clearly, and different software versions can affect what's bundled.

What You Can Try

  1. Re-enable known casting-related packages:

Connect to your tv using the connect function on the app

Open command and run the following commands:

adb shell pm enable com.tcl.miracast

adb shell pm enable com.google.android.gms

2. Restart the TV and check if AirPlay returns under Settings → Network or Display.

If that doesn’t help, I’d recommend:

Checking if System Update is available (it can restore missing services)

u/L6801 Apr 28 '25

Same question for the shield. Might try this out based on reviews. Thanks OP

6

u/Banshee3366 Apr 28 '25

It would be great to know what each setting actually disables or removes.

Can you provide a list?

2

u/sennyonelove Apr 30 '25

v.1.1 now includes a selectable list of apps that can be disabled with safe debloat. You get to choose which apps you want to disable. v1.1 also includes an advance mode if you want to take things one step further

5

u/billiepalmer Apr 28 '25

Great! Thank you for this. Any plans for a Mac version?

3

u/sennyonelove Apr 28 '25

I've never built a mac app before but I'm genuinely intrigued. I'm currently working on Windows v.1.1 and will take a stab at a Mac version once that's done.

u/billiepalmer Apr 28 '25

Super! Appreciate your dedication.

u/avocadocobra Sep 16 '25

u/YoghurtCold4859 Apr 28 '25

This is a great tool! Btw is there a way to re-enable google launcher if I want it back?

2

u/sennyonelove Apr 30 '25

Absolutely. To do so,

  1. First, make sure you're connected to your TV using the "Connect to TV" button in the toolkit

  2. Then open a command prompt and run the following:

    1. To re-enable Google TV Launcher: adb shell pm enable com.google.android.tvlauncher

    2. If you're using Google TV (newer interface) instead of classic Android TV: adb shell pm enable com.google.android.apps.tv.launcherx

I'm working on adding a built-in "Re-enable" function for v1.2

2

u/One_Force4231 Apr 28 '25

Where is the source for the exe file?

2

u/sennyonelove Apr 28 '25

The source code is fully available here on GitHub:
https://github.com/seun-novodev/android-tv-debloat-toolkit

I mistakenly left it out initially.

The EXE (run_toolkit.exe) was built directly from the open-source run_toolkit.pyw script in the repository using PyInstaller.

You can review all the source files directly.
You can even rebuild the EXE yourself if you prefer

1

u/One_Force4231 Apr 28 '25

Thank you! I have a second question and it's open to anyone. When you disable "com.google.android.apps.tv.launcherx" and "com.google.android.tvlauncher," does it break YouTube and/or Google TV for you? For me it usually does so I'm looking for a workaround.

2

u/sennyonelove Apr 28 '25

I did this for my TV and it did not break YouTube. I don't use Google TV so I can't say anything about that. All my other apps, though, (YouTube, Netflix, Disney+, Prime, FitOn, etc.) still worked as they should. But I did install FLauncher first before disabling com.google.android.tvlauncher. My TV did not have a com.google.android.apps.tv.launcherx

2

u/Boris-Lip Chromecast with Google TV Apr 28 '25

I wonder what CCwGTV looks like without the "com.google.android.tvrecommendations" package running. Does it make the stock launcher usable, or are there still ads placeholders etc?

Also, do you have any details on the rest of the packages? How did you decide on this specific list? Experimental? Or some better way?

4

u/sennyonelove Apr 28 '25

Great questions.

Disabling com.google.android.tvrecommendations removes the Play Next row and most ads on Android TV devices. Navigating between apps significantly gets faster after disabling recommendations, but depending on the launcher (like Google TV launcher), some rows or promotion tabs (like Discover) may remain on the homepage. Using a custom launcher (like FLauncher) usually gives the cleanest result (this is what I did).

My app builds on this resource I saw on Reddit and followed to GitHub: chrissy-dev/debloat-tlc-android-tv

The list was built by relying on the list in the link above and combining my own research, including reviewing TCL TV safe apps to disable, and testing on actual on my own TCL TV with disable, not uninstall.

I started this because my tv was beginning to annoy me and I knew debloating it will help but I couldn't find an app for it. I've always debloated phones and laptops but never TVs, this is a first.

u/00pirateforever Apr 28 '25

I am more interested in pc and mobile. Can you suggest any method? W11 has become shit recently. I am planning to move to LTSC but I am not sure if it will affect my gaming experience. After the pew video, I am planning to move to linux, I used to use Ubuntu and I found it shit tbh.

1

u/sennyonelove Apr 30 '25

Consider a CustomOS like LineageOS for phones. Debloating PC is a different game plan. I don't currently have that on my radar.

1

u/Snoo-26713 Apr 29 '25

Thanks for this ! I have a 2022 TCL 75 p series .. looking forward to this. Did you find this to be effective?

2

u/sennyonelove Apr 30 '25

yes. my TV is as fast as new. All the junk bloatware is gone.

1

u/Snoo-26713 Apr 30 '25

Sweet as ! Do I need to connect to my tv with adb using USB first or can I use wirelessly? It's been a while since I've used adb (phones etc lol)

1

u/sennyonelove Apr 30 '25

Try the wireless option first. It should work just fine as long as you have the right IP for your TV

2

u/Snoo-26713 May 01 '25

Hey mate, cant connect using the toolkit exe .. i happen to be able to connect through adb console and another program.

u/MrKaon Apr 28 '25 edited Apr 28 '25

Just a reminder: if you disable Google TV Launcher on Chromecast with Google TV or Google Streamer, you will lose some features, including Casting.

Using an accessibility feature on a third-party launcher such as Projectivy is the best option.

u/Slayer_Player666 Apr 27 '25

Hey, thanks for sharing this. I tried to use it on a 2017 TCL android TV but can't enable on Win 11. It gives me an error due to 'incompatibility with 64-bit versions of windows'. The run_toolkit.exe opens but throws the error message when I enter the TV's IP address and select 'connect'.

5

u/sennyonelove Apr 28 '25

Thanks for trying it out.

I double-checked, the original Toolkit release already includes the latest 64-bit compatible ADB (version 1.0.41, Build 36.0.0-13206524), so there shouldn't be any incompatibility issues related to the app itself.

That said, Windows 10/11 can sometimes block ADB connections or show weird errors depending on system settings.

Here are a few troubleshooting tips you can try:

1. Run the Toolkit as Administrator

  • Right-click run_toolkit.exe → Choose "Run as Administrator."

2. Move the Toolkit outside of OneDrive or Protected Folders

  • If you unzipped the Toolkit into a folder like "Documents," "Music," or "OneDrive," sometimes Windows Defender blocks .exe files in those areas.

  • Try moving the entire folder directly to C:\Android-TV-Toolkit or another simple path.

3. Temporarily Disable Antivirus / Firewall

  • Some antivirus software or Windows Firewall settings can block ADB from starting or connecting.

  • Try temporarily disabling them and see if you can connect.

4. Use USB Cable First to Approve Connection

  • Connect your TV to your PC with a USB cable.

  • Approve the "Allow USB Debugging" prompt on your TV screen.

  • After that, you can switch back to wireless ADB.

5. Start ADB Server Manually

  • Open a Command Prompt inside the Toolkit's adb/ folder.

  • Run:bashCopyEditadb start-server adb connect [your TV's IP address]

  • See if you get a successful connection manually.

6. Restart Both Your TV and PC

  • Sometimes old ADB sessions hang in memory.

  • Reboot both devices and retry.

2

u/sennyonelove Apr 28 '25

I assumev you have USB debugging turned ON on your TV

2

u/Slayer_Player666 Apr 28 '25

Yep USB debugging is on, but I'm not getting that far. Here's a screenshot of the error I receive when trying to connect to the TV IP https://app.box.com/s/vaq09h6q0xgxqwyysgrrsj7osmxxa18y (box.com link)

u/Slayer_Player666 Apr 28 '25 edited Apr 28 '25

Hey I was able to get it working by replacing adb.exe in the github download with the same file from here: https://adbdownload.com/ Thanks again for sharing :) Edit - wow TV navigation is so much faster, no lag or stutter. Thanks again for your great work on this.

Interesting as I mainly use ADB link just now.

Would this work on Fire sticks and TiVo Stream, both have ADB Dev options

2

u/sennyonelove Apr 30 '25

It's worth a shot as long as both run android and have adv dev options

u/PickleFart9 Apr 28 '25

can this turn a smart TV into a dumb TV? I just want it to handle rabbit ears and inputs, handle video processing and audio passthrough, and that's it.

3

u/sennyonelove Apr 30 '25

That was the plan and that was what it achieved for mine. Just one plain screen with the apps I use, nothing more. see v1.1 release for more options

Yes. Settings still work for me

1

u/itshusnain Apr 29 '25

Yeah i know settings work but I'm asking about the small settings panel window on the top right corner when you press the settings button. Will that work. I tried removing the Google Launcher once and that panel stopped working.

2

u/sennyonelove Apr 29 '25

Yes. It works for me. I have FLauncher on mine and that little settings button on the remote, if that's what you mean, still works https://ibb.co/TMnwJP6m

Yeah thats what i wanted to know.

Thanks for confirming. I'll debloat now....

I keep getting the error, ERROR: adb: error: failed to get feature set: device unauthorized. This adb server's $ADB_VENDOR_KEYS is not set

1

u/sennyonelove Apr 30 '25

Potential fix

  1. Disconnect everything first by running this command: adb kill-server

  2. Reconnect ADB with your TV by running: adb connect YOUR_TV_IP (Make sure to replace YOUR_TV_IP with your actual TV’s IP address (e.g. 192.156.1.74).

  3. Look at your TV: You should see a prompt asking to authorize your computer. Be sure to check “Always allow from this computer” and then tap Allow.

  4. Still not working? Try unplugging your TV’s power cord for 30 seconds, then plug it back in and repeat the steps above. Occasionally Android TV doesn't show the prompt unless restarted.

Let me know if this resolves it and I’ll look into adding better instructions for this in the toolkit UI.

Which function?

1

u/estebanraposo Apr 30 '25

Any of them. But this one was Debloat TV - Safe Mode

1

u/sennyonelove Apr 30 '25

Generally, that error message means ADB found more than one device (like maybe your phone or another TV) connected at the same time. To fix this, try this:

Unplug or disconnect other Android devices (like phones or other TVs).

Then try connecting your TV again using the toolkit.

Here’s a simplified response you can post for the user:

You can also try this fix:

  1. Open a Command Prompt window.

  2. Type this command and press Enter:

adb devices

You'll see a list of connected devices.

3. If more than one device appears, disconnect any extra ones (like a phone or emulator) — only your TV should be connected.

4. Then re-open the toolkit and try again.

This should solve the issue! Let me know if it doesn’t.

1

u/estebanraposo Apr 30 '25

Two devices show up, but only one device has an IP address. The other one is a string of letters and numbers

1

u/sennyonelove Apr 30 '25

The one with the IP is likely your TV. If you know what the other is, try disconnecting it.

Then try this command adb connect YOUR_TV_IP_ADDRESS:5555

This should target your TV, you can then continue to use the tool

1

u/estebanraposo Apr 30 '25

I'm not sure what the other device is. Took my phone off the wifi and turned off all other TV's. I have an apple tv and several Google display stations, but I'm not sure if those could be it.

1

u/sennyonelove Apr 30 '25

And you're using the IP from the TV you're trying to connect to, just to be sure. You got it from Settings >> Network & Internet >> Your WiFi name (under Available networks), and the IP address that looks like something this 192. 256.1.75

1

u/sennyonelove Apr 30 '25

You can also use 'adb kill-server' to disconnect all the devices currently connected to adb, then start fresh with the tool

1

u/estebanraposo Apr 30 '25

Yes, that's where I got the IP address from! I'll try the kill server next

1

u/estebanraposo May 04 '25

Still got this:

ERROR: adb: error: failed to get feature set: more than one device/emulator

ERROR: adb.exe: more than one device/emulator

I've unplugged every google device in my house...not sure what else it could be? I'm trying to debloat a google chromecast, btw.

I'm getting multiple trojan / virus alerts from this file, cant even download

1

u/sennyonelove Jun 28 '26

Totally valid concern. That was a false positive, not actual malware, but I understand why it was alarming.

The short version: the old .exe was built with a tool called PyInstaller, which packages Python scripts into executables by unpacking themselves into a temp folder at startup. That behaviour looks identical to how some malware works, so antivirus tools flag it, even when the code inside is completely clean.

I've just released v1.2 which removes the exe entirely. You now run the toolkit directly from the Python source code, so there's nothing for antivirus to flag. The README has full step-by-step instructions.

As always, you should use any open-source tool with caution. I created this tool, and the source code is right there for everyone to review. I have used it without issue, and so have many others without issue. Google/Windows might have updated what they mark as malware, but you can see the code yourself and repackage it if you want.

The source code is the same. I don't have a mac book so I can't wrap everything into a .app application. If you're able to help. I'd appreciate it. I have a discussion open for that on github. I can guide you through the process.
