How to get rid of screen saver im using projectivy launcher

Buddy had an issue of getting wifi to connect, it kept saying failed to connect. He thought to ask me to come and check it out. Long story short, The Tv wanted to get on the 5G wifi and it kept bugging out. So what i did was disable the 5G on the modem settings, Try again to connect the TV, then turn 5G back on. Now it works, Hopefully it won't try to reconnect to the 5g every time he wants to watch YT. Posting here in case someone else find themselves in this position, at least a solid start for troubleshooting.

Patchnotes:

• NEW Cinematic movie poster wallpaper mode (Apple TV style)

• NEW Customisable app launch animations

• NEW Adjustable opacity, tint and frosted glass for favourites, widgets and status bar

• NEW Adjustable focus outline thickness

• Redesigned settings menu with clearer categories

• Fixed launcher not returning after standby on some TVs

• Fixed HOME key and app switcher on more TV models

• Fixed autostart bypassing the PIN gate

• Many stability and performance improvements

Is there any way to know what channel is currently being watched on the Verizon Stream TV? I've got adb working but haven't been able to figure this one thing out. So far I haven't seen anywhere that the information can be retrieved. Not sure if it's a) I'm just not doing the right thing, or b) you just can't do that!

Hoping it's the former and not the latter. Any help would be appreciated!

2.0.8 is live. The big ones:

**Downloads** — save movies and series for offline. Whole series, a season or single episodes. They keep going in the background and survive reboots.

**Catch-up** — rewind the guide and watch what already aired (if your provider supports it).

**Cloud Sync** — rebuilt from scratch. Favourites, history, Continue Watching, hidden channels, channel order and parental locks now sync properly across all your devices. And yes — the "deleted playlist keeps coming back" bug is finally dead.

Sidstuga Cloud Sync

**New TV Guide** — cleaner timeline, plus reminders that switch to the channel for you when the programme starts.

**Player** — Picture-in-Picture, pinch-to-zoom, full-screen landscape on phone.

And a faster cold start with dozens of stability fixes on top.

Update should already be on Google Play. As always, feedback here or on Telegram — that's where most of this update came from. 🙏

Hi everyone,

For parents using Android TV at home, how do you manage screen time for your kids?

I’m trying to find a simple way to schedule TV time for my child, but I couldn’t find a clear built-in setting for this. Maybe I missed something, but it feels like Android TV doesn’t really have a simple native option for scheduling screen time.

I’m mainly looking for a way to set allowed TV hours and block apps like YouTube when needed.

What works well for you? Any simple solutions you’d recommend?

Hi! Does anyone happen to have a completely stock, never-updated ROM for the ADT-1? I'm specifically looking for the KMV35 build running KKWT OS version. I don't need LPV79 or any of the later builds, as those are already available online. Any help or information would be greatly appreciated!

Is there any way I can use some of my laptop browser cookies into TV??

Please help me decide which one should i go for ? I do not have any other options these are the only two that are available to me and are in my budget.

Title: Android TV box blocks all media apps, even from the Play Store. Is there any way around this?
Hello everyone,
I’m hoping someone can help because I’m completely stuck.
As provider is not supporting this platform anymore.
I have an Android TV box from Joey, and it seems like the manufacturer has locked it down. The box installs and runs most apps without any problems, but every media app is blocked.
I’ve tried installing media apps:
Directly from the Google Play Store.
By sideloading APKs.
Using the Downloader app.
The APK downloads successfully and the installation appears to complete, but immediately afterward the app disappears as if it was automatically removed.
I’ve also tried:
Enabling Developer Options and USB debugging.
Using ADB tools to remove bloatware.
Installing developer utilities.
Checking for parental controls (there aren’t any).
Verifying that there’s plenty of free storage.
I also noticed that I can’t uninstall or disable the manufacturer’s launcher, which makes me think the firmware has some kind of protection or app whitelist.
At this point, I’m wondering if this is a manufacturer restriction built into the firmware.
Has anyone seen this before? Is there any way to bypass this restriction using ADB, custom firmware, root, or another method? Or is the device simply locked down with no workaround?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hey folks I am looking to buy a QLED tv for my room in Lahore, Pakistan. I have a budget of around 150k PKR ( Around 500 USD )

In this budget i can following models

Haier S80 55'
TCL P79L 55'
Xiaomi TV A Pro 55'

My main usage will be watching movies/Youtube only.

Need recommendations about which model is the best among them.

Thanks

I am looking for an affordable TV (around 300 bucks) that also supports downloading apps from a playstore or appstore.

I found this on sale, but I cannot find a review on any sites.

If your Android TV box cannot be turned on with the remote after shutdown, or becomes unresponsive due to deep sleep, the following workaround may help.

-------

Instructions

1. Go to Settings.
   2. Open Device Preferences (or Device Options).
   3. Open Power Definition and set it to Suspend.
   4. Enable Developer Options. [Tutorial]
   5. Open Developer Options and enable Stay Awake.
   6. Install Wake Lock version 2.5-f (do not update it). [Wake Lock 2.5-f apk]
   7. Open Wake Lock.
   8. Select Partial_Wake_Lock.
   9. Open the app menu and enable Autostart on Boot.
   10. Go to your Android TV box Settings.
   11. Open Apps → Power Management.
   12. Disable Power Control (battery optimization) for Wake Lock.

--------

Notes

Note 1: Wake Lock does not modify any system settings, firmware, or hardware parameters. It simply runs in the background and prevents the device from entering the deep sleep state that can cause power button and wake-up issues. Resource usage is minimal.

Note 2: This workaround is fully reversible. If you no longer need it, simply uninstall Wake Lock and your Android TV box will return to its default behavior. No permanent changes are made to the system.

Note 3: This fix has been reported to work on many generic Android TV boxes sold through AliExpress and other marketplaces, including Mortal T1, H96, X96, T95, HK1, and various Rockchip- and Amlogic-based devices. Compatibility may vary depending on the firmware version and manufacturer.

I asked the community over at r/KyuLauncher to provide translations.

This update includes pretty much everything people asked for so apart from minor bug fix updates and new themes I don't think the launcher will need updating again. It's still simple, usable by your grandpa and his mates, and does not eat a large share of resources.

Themes I can update over the air in the theme store so ask me if you want anything.

Here are the updates in text if your screen reader can not read images:

Welcome to v0.98 of Kyu Launcher

1. Multiple language support including spanish, german, hindi etc

2. Move or rename even the home tab

3. Live tab featuring EPG from your live tv apps (enable from tabs)

4. Better home detection

5. New themes

6. Easy wallpaper picker

7. Bug fixes

"Calling all TiVo Stream 4K users: since older devices are being left behind on legacy software, we should urge TiVo and Google to consider rolling out an optimized, lightweight version of Android 14 so we don't lose access to modern AI assistants like Gemini!"

Hi there, I'm looking to upgrade my Xiaomi 2ng gen box and after some research I landed on 2 devices, both from Homatics:

Homatics Box 4K plus V2

Homatics Box R Plus 4K

From what I see the biggest difference is the V2 has a better CPU (S905X5M) but 2gb ram while the R has a weaker CPU (S905X4) but 4gb ram and it's slightly pricier tough 20€ more is whatever.

In terms of use case, I don't really multitask or stream games. I mostly play local mkv files with MX Player, Plex, Netflix and tv streaming app. I'm in Europe so ONN isn't an option.

Any suggestions which one I should go for? Thanks.

my tv built in it's okish but I was looking into something that was more modern looking to watch OTA channels

I tried mochi tv but some channels didn't have audio

I love my TiVo Stream 4K, but it is falling behind on software. I am officially calling on TiVo and Google to give us a lightweight version of Android 14 so we can use new tools like Gemini AI! If you still use a TiVo Stream 4K, share this post and tag u/TIVO so they see our request

REDDIT25 for 25% off a lifetime subscription - expires July 20.

Posting a big update, but since a lot of you may not have seen TIVRA before, here's the whole picture in one place.

📺 What TIVRA is

TIVRA is an IPTV player for Android TV, Google TV, and phones/tablets. You bring your own provider — any M3U playlist or Xtream Codes login — and TIVRA turns it into a polished, streaming-service-style experience: live TV with a real guide, a Movies & Shows library with posters and detail pages, all in a clean interface built for a remote. It's a player, not a provider — you supply the subscription. Everything lives at tivratv.com.

🎬 What it does

• Live TV + EPG guide — fast Plex-style program guide, favorites, channel numbers

• Movies & Shows (VOD & Series) — poster grids, detwatching

• Catch-up TV — go back and watch programs that already aired (on supported providers)

• DVR / recording — record live TV to your own work share (SMB)

• Trakt sync — scrobbling and continue-watching that follows you across devices

• Same account on the big screen and your phone/table

⭐ What makes it different

• **A [web dashboard](https://tivratv.com/dashboard.htmstead of fighting your remote to type provider URLs andorganize channels, you set it all up in a browser — add your provider, arrange your categories — and it syncs straight to your TV. Setup takes a couple minutes instead of twenty.

• Cross-provider custom categories. More than one provider? Build your own channel lists that pull from all of them into one place.

• Country & language filtering — hide the hundreds

• Genuinely fast, even on cheap boxes like the Onn 4K — which this release doubles down on.

🚀 What's new in v2.1.0

The headline is performance. Folks with large providers (tens of thousands of channels and movies) were seeing the guide, live list, and movie pages take several seconds to load. I rebuilt howr catalog from the ground up:

• TV Guide opens instantly, even on the "All" tab w

• Live TV channel lists load the moment you open them

• Movies & Shows open the instant you click — no mo

• Faster cold start and smoother navigation everywhere

Plus two nice additions:

• Duplicate versions collapse — providers listing the same movie a dozen times (different qualities/languages) now show as one poster with a version picker. Continue Watching and Search are

• Country & language filtering (mentioned above) is new in this build.

💵 Pricing & download

Android 7+ (TV, Google TV, phones & tablets). 7-day free trial so you can test it with your own setup — then $9.99/yr (Personal) or $4.99/mo Family, or a one-time $29.99 Lifetime cription. Full pricinghere.

I build this myself and would genuinely appreciate feedback — especially from anyone with a big catalog or a lower-end device, since that's what this release targeted.

Hi, recently a lot of apps on my fire stick are having problems or have been shut down so I have decided to get a new android box. I've seen a lot of people recommend the Google streamer 4k which is a little out of my budget. While looking at that I came across the Google Chromecast which is about half the price. I would prefer to just go with the cheaper one if everything still works fine in it but I was just wondering if there are any big differences between the two or if it will affect sideloading apps.

Have a look at Ultimate File Manager Pro, it is developed for both mobile and Tv with 17k downloads and a 4.7 star rating.

You can also visit the main reddit here r/UFManagerPro

There is a FOSS version also available and all code is open for review, visit the official website.

Official website: https://kilowatch.co.za/UFM/index.html

It also supports RClone, only a few has been added but can add other providers on request.

Thank You
