ATV Launcher Pro Setup

  1. Align apps on the home screen.
  2. Create folder Unused and move all apps which will never be used on this box into it.
  3. Create folder Admin and move all apps which should only be used by the system admin into it.
  4. Create folder Games and move all game apps into it.
  5. Create a weather widget in the top right widget area. Open Config for the widget, disable time and data display.
  6. Settings for KillApps:
    • Go to Settings in the top right corner and hit Create shortcut. This creates a one-click short cut on the home screen which allows to close all apps with one click of a button.
    • Make sure User apps is enabled and System apps is disabled.
    • Add the following apps to the Exception List: ATV Launcher, Simple WiFi Widget, and Weather & Clock Widget. These apps will always remain running.

Special Apps

Zattoo

  1. Install Zattoo from the apk for Android TV, not from the Play Store, as the versions are different.
  2. Make sure Zattoo is not updated.
  3. SSH into the box, then find directory /data/app/com.zattoo.player-xxx, then remove write permissions for all files (not directories) within the tree with chmod -r *.

Opera for Android TV

  • This app version is very old, but the only one which installs without requirement of running on a Sony TV
  • I might work on a mod for a newer version when I have time
  • Puffin on TV is another browser, however it sets a system wide proxy in the USA, which makes it impossible to use Zattoo or U-Play

Additional Apps

Games

Useful apps with working WIFI

  • AirScreen
  • CetusPlay
  • Simple WiFi Widget, then create a WiFi widget in the top left widget area

Optional for some use cases

  • System app remover

Harmony Remote

  1. The stock remote has a numeric key pad, which we can use to get Playback and Navigation functionality properly set up, as we do not need numeric keys in Kodi.
  2. Open MyHarmony on your PC, then edit the button assignments for the Kodi activity. Assign (TX6 remote) numeric keys to the Harmony remote keys which correspond to Kodi functions according to below's table.
  3. In Kodi, use Keymap Editor to map the keys to Kodi functions. Run Keymap Editor in Program Addons, then go to Edit → Global and chose the Action Category. Assign all keys, then Save them.
