[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] joaoviss:
Where is the physical power button on the TCL P715 TV located? Mine is in a difficult to access location and I need to use this button to flash an img version v6** (Android 9).

My TV is on v728, and there is a terrible problem with applications that do not have access to internal memory. For example, the SNES9X does not show ROMS and cannot access any folders.

I read somewhere that it is something related to Android 11.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
At the back.....near MIC switch.
[Google Chromecast] JimmyEatFood:
Loving this. Thanks.

Please may you let me the activity that it is launching when I select "open notification curtain"
[Google Chromecast] bernarbernuli:
It only shows with Google TV launcher (think), which is the default for devices like the Chromecast with Google TV (which is the one I have). With another custom launcher is not shown, such as Projectivy Launcher.

It is what it shows, indicated in the arrow in the screenshot.

thank you mate
[Google Chromecast] mabba18:
Thank you so much for this great tool!

I had debloated my CCwGTV previously, but I was aggressive to the point that it had become unstable.

I did a factory reset, and started from scratch with your toolkit. Worked great to get the system setup and running nicely with the apps I want, and none I don't want.

Only issues I found is in the adblock section. I believe the DNS sever needs to be the full url, "https://dns.adguard-dns.com/dns-query" the command in the toolkit is only "dns.adguard-dns.com/dns-query"

Otherwise no issues. Very impressive considering how limited the current Android version is on CCwGTV. Very helpful for learning and troubleshooting that you state which adb commands are used.
[Google Chromecast] Mozie:
Could this tool root the Android TV device? Or will it make the root process easier, and if so how?
[Google Chromecast] bernarbernuli:
I will take your recommendation into account in the next update, and there are many improvements coming.

No not for now, if you explain to me the procedure to root an Android TV device I guess I can add it to the tool.
[Google Chromecast] bernarbernuli:
New tool update. Now much more robust and with many added features.

Android TV Tools v2​

New features:

Install Play Store shortcut to display in your launcher (option 1.9).

Manage device permissions (option 4.5).

Grant write permissions on external USB (option 4.5.2)

List packages that have a certain permission available (option 4.5.5)

More query links (option 7.3)

Install alternative shops such as Aurora Store and Aptoide TV (opt 7.11)

View list of uninstalled or hidden apps (opt 2.7.5)

More changes:

Thanks for this great tool. But why VirusTotal flagged this file as malicious?

[Google Chromecast] bernarbernuli:
It's a false positive virus, it's because of the way the bat to exe packer compiles.

Thanks for info.
[Google Chromecast] Ahmed Raslan:
This tool is a work of art, really thank you for the efforts put in this.
[Google Chromecast] LucianGL30:
it is a super great tool and a very good idea from developer, first of all a big thanks for your time and work and please keep up this good work!

I have this problem ( please check attached screenshot ) as I want to replace original youtube with smart tube but doesn't let me do it. There is no message on tv sony bravia 2023 android 10 screen to confirm it. Any other way to check or bypass to make it work?
[Google Chromecast] MulderX33:
Hi, 33 from 61 scanners seem many "false positives", not?

V1... not problem. But V2...

Thanks.
[Google Chromecast] bernarbernuli:
I can do little about that, I reiterate that it is the compiler when packaging, you don't know me and I understand your concern, but I have no alternative to offer you free of those virus alerts. I can only tell you that there is not a single line in the code that collects and sends data to any server, only the internet connection is used to download auxiliary files found in the "Android TV Tools - Aux Files" folder on your PC.
[Google Chromecast] bernarbernuli:
I will first explain the procedure to install the bridge app in case you can give me a hint. To install this bridging app, you must first uninstall original YouTube and then install the bridging app. According to Smartube documentation, many devices, except Chromecast with Google TV and Amazon Fire TV, require root to uninstall original YouTube, maybe that's the reason.

I'm working on an update of the tool and among other things I've improved the information you get in case of installation/uninstall error in case we can figure out exactly what happens to make you get that error. If you are still interested, I can send you the new version not yet released for testing.
[Google Chromecast] LucianGL30:
Hi, thank you for reply back to me. Of course I am interested and I can give a try. About my Sony Bravia 2023 model, I try to do so far 2 things, first to make it work the mirroring option ( which they disabled from 2021 models ) and replace youtube tv with smart tube.

For mirrorling I found the original app disabled in system apps and enabled back but it doesn't connect with my phone even with 2.4 Ghz wireless connection on both devices.

For youtube I can't unninstall original youtube tv as I don't have root on my tv and I belive this is the problem that I can't install the bridge app.

Another thing, on attached picture I pointed out a problem with Sony Bravia android tv which is boot loop after got to this option "restart in bootloader mode" , to get the tv back to live I have to do the trick with factory reset and then restore apps from your app.

One last problem I saw is about recording video as it seems to be a problem with codecs/transcoding as after I finish to record it doesn't open with any player. It looks to be a problem with recording too.
[Google Chromecast] MulderX33:
It is true that on FireTV, for example, there is no pre-installed YouTube. There is no problem using smarttube+bridge.

The problem is on devices certified by Google. Most of them already have YouTube pre-installed as a system app, so the smarttube bridge (which has the SAME name as the original app) won't work because it can't be installed.

First you would have to uninstall the YouTube application, but since it is a system application it is impossible without being root.

PS: I am Spanish. Using Google Translate. Sorry for the mistakes".

PS2: proven tool. Good job. In some (quite a few) optimization/speed settings I haven't noticed any noticeable differences. Tested on Xiaomi Stick 4k and Hako Pro (both Android TV 11 certified).

PS3: You should use another method to convert bat to exe. You and I (now) know that they are false positives. But many people will distrust it and not use it. One, two... a few... it's acceptable... but that more than half of the VirusTotal engines, including the most important ones, report being a very dangerous file... it will be a big problem for many people. . If the method used is the same… why does version 1 not seem “extremely dangerous” and version 2 does?

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] solid.snake:
Hello,

Certainly since the Last upgrade, i'm not able to find the dynamic rotation tiny popup that appears when you physicaly rotate the phone.

Do you guys have still this button ?

Is that à bug or is there Anyway to retrieve it back ?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] neilth:
In the Quick Panel there’s a button labeled either Autorotate, Portrait or Landscape. The name depends on which mode the phone happens to currently be in. If it’s labeled Autorotate, you will not get the tiny popup you mentioned and the phone will just automatically rotate the screen depending on the phone’s orientation. If the button is labeled Portrait or Landscape and you change the phone’s orientation, the popup will automatically appear so that you can manually change screen orientation. This ability to lock the screen orientation came with One UI 6.0.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] solid.snake:
Hello @neilth

I do have indeed the portrait mode button, but i still don't have the rotate tiny popup while i turn the screen
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] neilth:
Try going into Autorotate mode by pressing the Portrait button and see if that works properly. Does your screen autorotate as expected in this mode?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] solid.snake:
Yes, the traditional portait button Functionality does work as expected, but it annoys me a bit to have to trigger it intead of using the popup button.

Anyway, im about to reset it again and see how it does behave.

At least, i have had the confirmation that i didn't missed any hidden menu
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] neilth:
When you pressed the Portrait button did it get relabeled Autorotate and then did autorotation function as it should when you rotated your phone, automatically switching between portrait and landscape modes?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] Antyhaker:
Yes, still present.

Long press the rotate button in notification center and see if you have enabled the right toggle (shortcut on navigation bar).
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] solid.snake:
Hi

Thanks mate, im using gesture, but already checked those longpress portrait button also

It might be a simple but as simple as it is
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5] Antyhaker:
I'm using gestures as well, but this toggle works for gestures and navigation buttons :)

[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] Chris14012002:
I have a J7 6 (SM-J710F) that I bought from Bahrain... I want to change the firmware to Indian firmware.. so how to unlock bootloader so I can start flashing.. I already downloaded the Indian firmware... I'm like confused rn like should the bootloader be unlocked or not for flashing
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] henonchschonleinpurp:
Yes. Unlock the bootloader and then only flash. Pretty simple:

Buildnumber tap 8 times --> Dev options --> oem unlock = enable it and usb debugging = enable it

But you cannot flash another samsung firmware built for another model on your phone mate/ I doubt it/ less useful/ more prone for error. Install a custom ROM instead - you can check the xda ROMs thread and find your ideal android 8/9/10/12 roms.

Make sure there is no important data ion internal storage.

STEP 1: INSTALL TWRP

You are already oem unlocked. Now turn off phone.

power button+ home+ volume up for 5 seconds till boot logo appears. Then release.

Recovery screen appears. Factory reset your phone: a) Format data b) Wipe cache

in the recovery screen select power off

now enter download/ odin mode by pressing power+volume down+home. Then when blue screen appears, press volume up. You will enter download mode.

Open odin v3.13.1 on your pc. Uncheck the "Autoreboot" option

Make sure youv'e already downloaded latest official twrp.img.tar for your j7xelte (J710F/FN) https://dl.twrp.me/j7xelte/

Upload this twrp file in the AP directory of odin

connect your phone(Download mode) to pc. Connection message will be displayed

Start. Flashing will be finished.

Now disconnect your phone and press Volume down+power. As the blue screen powers off, remove the battery.

now Boot to recovery mode by volume up+ home+power. Vola! You will enter TWRP.

STEP 2: Backup your ROM using twrp

Insert a microsd/ usb otg, while in the twrp recovery mode.

now select backup --> system, boot, data --> select storage to microsd/otg that youve inserted.

Now press ok/backup. Thats it! So even if you fail in step 3, you can restore your rom now.

STEP 3: Install custom ROM

Select a good rom of your choice. Search in the XDA. Wan't any sugesstions in selecting ROMS, you can ask me again.

In each ROM thread of XDA, the developer will give detalied instructions. follow the instructions and enjoy.
[Redmi 9 / Poco M2 Questions & Answers] zygfryd-12:
My redmi 9 recently updated to MIUI Global 13.0.1 Android 12.

After that I have a big problems with ads - almost always after exiting the app, often interrupts the app.

I've used a few tutorials, including the disable ad personalization option, authorization for msa and MiuiDeamon and other apps in Password/Security

I've disabled Receive suggestions for different apks , I also changed the region to UK.

It keep popping up some times every few minutes but usualy more often.

Who have an idea what can i do?

I'm not sure of the effects but I'm going to change the firmware to a newer or older one but for now I'm waiting for the Xaiomi to unlock it
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] easyrider77:
So I finally got the oneui 6 official update. It's been about 2 weeks and my battery life has gone from avg of 10h sot, normally down to 10% at that point, to now at 32% I only have 6h sot.

I haven't had time to drop it to 10% yet to see if I hit the 10h sot, but my guess is if at 32% and only 6h sot I doubt I'll hit that 10h sot mark. Probably 8-9 maybe, and id say 9h would be pushing it.

So that brings me to how to downgrade without rooting.

-Is that possible?

-Would the update just push thru again and nag/auto install again?

Perhaps it's time to be root?

Dunno, anyone have any thoughts it ideas, is greatly appreciate some advice
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] blackhawk:
You could reflash to the previous official rom.

Before you resort to that...

Backup all critical data as it should be anyway.

Try clearing the system cache.

10 hours SOT isn't that good; 13 hours is more like it for that size battery.

Turn off global power management in Device Care. Find the power hogs and deal with each on a case by case basis. In the individual app settings using data/battery background limiting doesn't invoke global power management.

Use ladb or adb edits or Package Disabler to kill apps that can't be otherwise toned down; there are many. Kill Bixby if you don't use it.

Don't go too nuts especially with the smaller Samsung system apps if they aren't being power hogs. Many use little resources and modify the UI providing usability and functionality!

Turn off animations. Use dark mode and dark theme. No social media or sales apps should ever be installed; browser login only.

All Samsung's should be optimized, it takes some time and there's a steep learning curve.

Customize it for your own tastes don't just blindly use someone's kill list. Most are overkill and will cause issues. Know what you are disabling and any dependencies.

One of the first things I kill is OTA updates, it constantly runs in the background. Upgrades/updates can and do break Samsung's. Lol, I'm still running on Android 9, security isn't an issue. Last factory reset was over 3.5 years ago on this stock N10+, still fast and stable. No malware in all that time. At the very least wait to upgrade until you see how it's working for others, let Mikey try it first🤣

My optimized N10+ with a degraded 3500 mAh battery gets 10 hours SOT. That 13 hour SOT for the S23U should be doable as some others are getting 13-16 hours, allegedly. Use Accubattery to monitor actual usage on it's history page; makes it easy to see usage at any time.

A factory reset may be needed.

Awesome.

So will the update to oneui 6 pop back up? If so it's kinda pointless going thru this reset if it's going to come back, and eventually auto-install again.

From my experience you can only delay an update for so long, eventually it forces an install
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] blackhawk:
You disable OTA updates. As long as the boot loader version wasn't upgraded too you can reflash it and roll it back... it's far easier not to do upgrades and updates.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] pjaysnowden:
Just turn off automatic updates after you flash the downgrade.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] blackhawk:
OTA updates can turn itself on. It has every permission under the sun. It must be disabled by an abd edit or Package Disabler.
