    Remove forced Sling from AirTV mini

    Posted: 11 Feb 2020 04:48 AM PST

    If you have an AirTV mini (which is awesome by the way, I love mine) , but you're not in the sling ecosystem, you just need to run two adb commands

    pm disable-user --user 0 com.sling.airtvmini
    (To disable and hide the app)

    pm disable-user --user 0 com.google.android.leanbacklauncher.partnercustomizer
    (To stop the system from trying to launch sling automatically at boot. You have to do this if you do the first one, because otherwise you'll hang at boot)

    This also removes the sling logos and splash screens and basically turns your device into a non-specific ADT device.

    Tick sounds from speakers after upgrading to Android 9 on mibox

    Posted: 11 Feb 2020 07:55 AM PST

    Hi, I have an amp connected to the mibox analog output, that I usually keep on even when the mibox is turned off. It wasn't an issue until I upgraded to 9, and now when I turn the mibox off, I hear strong "tick" sounds from my speakers every few seconds or so.

    This is really annoying. Did someone else get that? Is it at all possible to roll back to Android 8? Thanks

    Ethernet connection works for YouTube, nothing else

    Posted: 10 Feb 2020 06:30 PM PST

    This is a very weird issue I'm running into, hoping someone here can give me some troubleshooting ideas.

    I've had my shield for months, and it's always been hooked up to the Ethernet. In the last couple of days, streaming services have displayed network errors only when accessed through Ethernet. If I switch from Ethernet to WiFi, it starts working again. I also cannot connect to the app store over Ethernet.

    Weird wrinkles:

    • YouTube still works on Ethernet when nothing else does, so it's not as if the Ethernet connection itself is completely failing.

    • Ethernet still works on other devices.

    • I got network errors once on wifi as well

    What I've tried:

    • Restarting shield

    • Restarting internet gateway

    • Restarting ONT box (This worked for a few hours before issue returned)

    • Uninstalling streaming apps

    • Resetting IP setting from Static to DCHP

    The only significant change I've made recently is setting up my shield as a Plex Server. I enabled transferring over network, and changed the IP setting to Static.

    I'm hoping someone might be able to point me towards something I'm missing. Thanks

    Made a simple photo slideshow app for Android TV

    Posted: 10 Feb 2020 02:16 PM PST

    Hi Reddit, I've got something that might be useful for you, but first a little backstory.

    Last Christmas I bought my parents an Nvidia Shield TV to let them watch Netflix instead of terrible TV shows. By the way, I uploaded my wedding photos so they could view them and show to others whenever they want. What a surprise when it turned out that the built-in photo viewer has absolutely no functionality. Not only I couldn't start the slideshow, the pictures were shown from the newest first and it couldn't be changed.

    I tested several applications available in the Play store, but they are all weird or have a non-intuitive interface. Not good for my parents. Seeing that there is a potentially unresolved use case here, I decided to make my own app, which would be as simple to use as possible, only with the necessary options that will just let the user view his photos and play a slideshow. I called it Photos TV.

    The app automatically scans the device, so you don't have to go through the cumbersome process of manual folder selection and building the library. The slideshow has an interface known from the old version of YouTube and is easy to use. Additionally it has some useful options such as repeat, shuffle, screen fit and slide duration.

    The app is free, so use it at your will. If it gets some momentum, I'll consider bringing premium features such as Google Photos integration or NAS support.

    Please let me know what you think about this app and whether it makes sense to develop it at all. Personally, I would like to have something for displaying my Google Photos in much better quality than Chromecast does. I don't carry a 1.5kg DSLR on my trips to later see my pictures in shitty Chromecast compression. But that's just me, maybe the problem is not as common as I think. Your feedback will be highly appreciated. Thanks!

    Is Google Drive available on Android TV ?

    Posted: 10 Feb 2020 11:32 PM PST

    I wanted to pick up an Android TV box from Amazon so i can watch my media from Google Drive.

    Is this possible without having to do a bunch of confusing stuff like on Apple TV and Roku ?

    Thanks.

    Posted: 10 Feb 2020 12:51 PM PST

    Mi box was very snappy before pie but now it's laggy and I need to reboot every couple of days to make it work properly again. It's a known problem? Any fix?

    How do I download an OpenVPN configuration?

    Posted: 10 Feb 2020 09:16 AM PST

    I'm going insane here. I've tried via x-plore, file commander and hooking them up to Google drive. I've tried transferring via WiFi... nothing works!. With the Google drive option I can see the file but it's greyed out as if you can't press it(which you can't)..

    I've tried downloading the Puffin browser and getting the configuration file through it. But no - download is not supported? Argh!

    How the hell do I do this? Over an hour down the drain.. don't know how many apps I've installed so far lol
