Hi
I am meeting an strange problem, with a certain app, the NRK TV app.
If I open the app from the main screen (android launcher/leanback launcher), it start as it should.
It starts in leanback mode.
If I start it from inside Kodi/SPMC, it starts as it`s on an phone. With touch screen setup.
I have added it as an "Favorite" inside Kodi/SPMC, as it should be done, after what I have found of info.
The code Kodi gives it to start, is: StartAndroidActivity(“no.nrk.tv”)
Is there something in that code, that can be altered so it starts as it should, in leanback mode?
The Shield is not rooted.

No one that have experienced the same, and found an solution?
I have the same issue with the vevo app, starts normal from main screen but launched in spmc it shows phone version, then it won't let me use control pad. We need some sort of solution to this
I don't know anything about code. But can it be that f.ex. Kodi/SPMC is coded for touchscreen, so it is Kodi/SPMC that make the apps start as they where on a phone/tablet?
Is there maybe an way to investigate the app it self in how it is started?
Hi, i don't have my new Shield with me yet but there are some modified addons (based on elmerohueso work) to open specific apps and works well in my android phone.
https://github.com/ronniehd/repository.ronniehd/tree/master/zips/Android Shortcuts
You could take one and modify "addon.py" with the leanback app package name of your interest and test if it opens correctly. Let me know if it works. Take it as a workaround until it gets fixed.

Thank's for the hint.
If I understand you right, I should edit the "package" names in both files, and install this as an addon inside Kodi?
I have one problem still. I don't really know the "real" package name of the app, if the name that Kodi find is not accurate? (no.nrk.tv)

Yes, you just have to change package names.
Check App info of the leanback app to get the package name. Not sure if package name is the same for leanback and non leanback apps.
Example: Normal YouTube app info... Package name is: com.google.android.youtube

Got an hint about adding this as the start of activity, but don not help. Maybe it would help people here
StartAndroidActivity(“no.nrk.tv.view.androidtv.AndroidTvMainActivity”)

Can you sideload Catlog app to your shield and get a logcat while opening an android tv app from shield's android tv launcher. Then check the log for the activity name, or post it here so we can take a look.

CatLog won't work. I have not a rooted my device.
It just won't show anything of what I do, and it says something about root

I did not have any plan to do so.
But if it is really simple, maybe I will?
And guarantee etc is not harmed?
I have the same problem with one app on my Mi Box.
The app is Mycanal a french TV app which recently gain android TV version. What I understand is that it's the same apk for phone-tablet and TV.
When I launch it from leanback launcher it launches in TV Mode. If I launch it from Kodi or SPMC it doesn't launch because it says I must launch Android TV Version.
I've Installed HALauncher and disabled Leanback. In HALauncher we can launch Android TV apps and handled apps. We can also choose which "version" of an app we want to launch (handled or TV) So I choose TV version for Mycanal app.
After that I go to shortcut details in HALauncher for Mycanal and see that it lauch the app and a particular activity :
For TV mode :
app : com.canal.android.canal
activity : com.canal.android.tv.activities.TvSplashActivity
for handled mode :
app : com.canal.android.canal
activity : com.canal.android.canal.MainActivity
After that I install Package Browser to se what's in mycanal package.
I search for activities and see in com.canal.android.tv.activities.TvSplashActivity :
<intent-filter>
<action name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category name="android.intent.category.LEANBACK_LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
And in com.canal.android.canal.MainActivity :
<intent-filter>
<action name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
some other launchers....
</intent-filter>
So my understand is for some apps. TV mode is based on which launcher start the app. I think it's a bad method ! But I'm not a dev.
So maybe there is a way to trick the app and let it "think" it's start from LEANBACK Launcher.
Can you try what I made to see if it's the same for you ? Maybe SPMC devs can fix this easily !
I hope so
I have the same issue when I load Google Play Games - It goes to a black screen and then quickly returns to SPMC.
With the Package Browser I found the "activity" that NRK self asked me to use/try, with no help. The mention over ("no.nrk.tv.view.androidtv.AndroidTvMainActivity")
I also found "no.nrk.tv.view.MainTvActivity", and with that I understand that the way Kodi/SPMC is starting the last one. With the code: StartAndroidActivity("no.nrk.tv")
I have as mentioned tried to add the first one instead, but did not help. Maybe it is something in what dadaz007 writes, that it's the right way that Kodi/SPMC tried to start the activity, but it has to add which activity to start. Now it just starts the normal activity, without any parameter like:
app: com.canal.android.canal <- like it is now
activity : com.canal.android.tv.activities.TvSplashActivity <- but a way to add how to start it.
Or is I way off?

Just a quick reminder, since it is not clearly specified in the first post:
This tool is illegal and goes against the ToS of the Android Market / Play Store:

Download Paid Apps
Google Play currently has a bug in it which prohibits some users from installing apps they have paid for (listed as purchased in the Google Play App).
They are "working" on it but it is very frustrating when I cannot download apps that I have purchased.
This application would be extremely useful if it allowed downloading of apps that I have purchased.
Thank you.../

I don't have any account that purchased app, so i couldn't test it. I blocked download to all apps that is not free. Leave your email at my blog. I'll give you the unblock download app version to let you try.
Btw, i'll upgrade this tool for more functions as soon as posible when i have free time.
PS: you can find my blog link on the first post. Due to 3 posts, i can't insert a link on my reply T_T
is there anyway to spoof a device id other than your own?
I ask because I wish to download APKs of applications like Chrome browser but my Bravo doesn't officially support ICS.
Hi,
I just switched from a samsung note 2 to an asus padfone infinity a86 (with the padfone infinity station) and have a problem with a few tablet only apps.
On the note 2 I was able to use xposed with appsettings to run some apps (like c't Magazin) that normally are only supported on tablets.
On the padfone they already run nicely when in tablet mode (the phone is docked in the 10" tablet dock), but when I try to start such applications asus seems to have put in a layer to prevent this. Even with xposed appsettings running I get a popup telling me that this is a tablet app that will not run in phone mode and I can only close the dialog - really disapointing.
I than
- pulled the apk from the phone
- decoded it with apktool
- changed AndroidManifest.xml from
Code:
<supports-screens android:smallScreens="false" android:normalScreens="false" android:largeScreens="true" android:xlargeScreens="true" />
to
Code:
<supports-screens android:smallScreens="true" android:normalScreens="true" android:largeScreens="true" android:xlargeScreens="true" />
- used apktool to build the package again
- signed the package with jarsigner
- zipaligned the package
- pushed it to the phone
- uninstalled the stock playstore app
- installed the modded apk
But still the phone complains that the app is tablet only.
As I am not an android developer I am a bit lost.
How can the phone (or the asus software) find out if the app is tablet only? I thought it would look in the Manifest, wouldn't it?
Is there something I am missing - or another way to force the padfone to start the tablet application while in phone mode?
Regards
Norbert
P.S.: Why is the forum software complaining that I marked this as a question and tells me to go to Q&A Forum? I thought this forum would meet exactly this as it has Q&A a level above?!?
Look at the resource folders. There will probably only be (layout-) resources for tablets, not for phones.

What do I need to support normalscreen?
Does it suffice to copy layout-large to layout-normalscreen?
Or is there any tutorial showing what to mod?
For starters it would be nice to get the app running - than I can check if xposed is able to force it to tablet ui
Hm yeah there are only 'sw' layout folders, try to just copy one of the layout folders to 'layout' and see if that works

There is already a layout folder with files in it.
I just tried to copy that to layout-small and installed the resulting package but the f..... padfone still does not want to start it.

It would be a real PITA to do it, but you would manually need to understand and put correct layout and values in their respective folders. But since it shows that popup, you would need smali changes to overcome that.
I was a bit astonished when yesterday evening I tried something else, I used another Launcher (Apex) and voila, the (modified) app opened while being in phone mode.
So I guessed it was the Asus launcher that caused the problems.
So I killed the app, switched back to the asus launcher and ... funny, no "can't be started in phone mode" message but a starting app.
Next I deinstalled my modded app and went to the playstore.
In phone mode I couldn't find the original app.
In tablet mode I was able to find it, but the playstore now tells me that the app is not compatible with my device.
Now I am completely puzzled.
I got the app in v 1.0.4 (which still is the current version) from the playstore using my NPFI and now it is listed as "not compatible" (on the playstore on the NPFI in tablet mode and on my desktop computer when trying to remotely install ist).
On my note 2 I only had v 1.0.2 which I found somewhere on the net (wasn't able to find 1.0.4) so it can't be a backup of some sort but must have been fresh from the playstore.
Can someone with an NPFI please check if google tells him the app is compatible with the NPFI? https://play.google.com/store/apps/...=3&iphc=true&rdid=de.heise.android.ct.magazin
So at the moment:
- I can use the modified app (which I reinstalled) on my NFPI in phone and pad mode
- but I can't install or update via playstore (not that I guess this ****ty app will get an update soon as they claim to be working hard on a phone version for a year now)
According to google play, it is... what's weird, though, is that it calls my NPFI an AT&T device:

Looks very nice and works as advertised. It's great that you could find use for my findings. :good:
You should include a link to the app's Google play page. It's a much better way to spread your app and keep users up to date than a separate download here.
Maybe include a check whether the mirroring mode is already on when app is started, so that in that case it will not turn off the mirroring when that app is closed...? This would make the user experience better for those who sometimes want to start apps from mirrored mode and then continue using the phone in mirrored mode after closing apps.
(I released a code for this check in my dev notes)

Good point, thanks. This check will be included in my next version which is already waiting for approval in Google Play.
I have changed the download link to Google Play.
I have YD206 running Kitkat and Google Play says this is incompatible.
Does it requires Lollipop?
Or, can I have direct download link to the APK?

Sorry, Ignore my message. I meant to post it on another thread (YotaText) by mistake I ended up posting it here where it is explicitly mentioned that Lollipop is required.
Hmm, I am actually planning to use this combined with Tasker to turn off ScreenFilter when a certain mirrorred-app is activated, but doesn't like it's working for me. Anything I can do to make it work? Thank you.
I'm on YD206 flashed to Lollipop RU1.1.134 and rooted if that helps.
apk required
please provide the link to the apk as most users are locked out of certain google play apps due to their store location. absolute deal breaker

Sorry for the late reply, been busy lately. I have 3 options for you[emoji1] :
1:
If you have Xposed installed you can try installing XToast(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2825156) and using the "Block toast of selected apps" but the problem is that it will stop ALL of that apps toasts(the app you choose).*
2:
Another option is that you might be able to decompress the app file and look through the assets until you find the frame(s) that have that toast and delete them. Once you do that, you can re-compress the app and it shouldn't show it anymore since it won't find the frame that had that specific uri.*
3:
Install UnToaster Xposed(Xposed module)(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2624523) . After you install it, you will need 2 things, the apps package name, and what the toast says.
If you need help, choose any method and I can walk you through it.
*Make 2 app backups, 1 for backup, the other your going to work with*

If you have Xposed installed you can try installing XToast(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2825156) and using the "Block toast of selected apps" but the problem is that it will stop ALL of that apps toasts(the app you choose).*
2:
Another option is that you might be able to decompress the app file and look through the assets until you find the frame(s) that have that toast and delete them. Once you do that, you can re-compress the app and it shouldn't show it anymore since it won't find the frame that had that specific uri.*
3:
Install UnToaster Xposed(Xposed module)(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2624523) . After you install it, you will need 2 things, the apps package name, and what the toast says.
If you need help, choose any method and I can walk you through it.
*Make 2 app backups, 1 for backup, the other your going to work with*

Have you tried going into the "res" folder and trying to find it within the drawable folders?
What the app might be doing is listening for a specific frame/drawable to be displayed so that it can show the toast at that moment. By deleting it, what your doing is your practically telling the app it doesn't exist(which it won't thereafter lol) and therefore it will no longer show the toast.

What folders do you have for the app?
If you have all the app decompiled already you could probably do that by adding the video to through the manifest by specifying an activity and layout with a VideoView as the <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" /> and playing the video as soon as the activity starts. After that you just start the Mainactivity.
These might also help...

I use the Pixel mod in the T-Mobile and verizon themes and mods section. Works awesome, has the Google feed on the furthest page to the left and everything! Just follow the steps in the threads and you'll have yourself a edge Pixel lol

I didn't understand the thread too well. Do I need root? And Do I need to use a computer?

No you don't need root and you don't need a computer either. You need the file and package disabler of some sort.
Download playstore file
Extract file
Open package disabler hit settings upper right hand corner
In settings import playstore XML file
Then start installing The APK s manually. I didn't install all the extra ones, just the Google apps.
Go into settings on the phone and set Android Phone, Pixel launcher and android messanger as default apps.
Reboot to recovery wipe cache and enjoy!

How did you get the swipe right Google now on the pixel launcher?

I updated the launcher to the latest one, that can be found on APK.mirror.com. Also the playstore and Google app updated after that and I'm pretty sure that's what made it work.

I am using the "O" version but the Google now still doesn't work I heard the only way to get it is to have it as a system app but you can't do that without root I don't think...

That could be true, I did move it to system apps and set permissions to rw-r-r. Or edit build prop to Pixel XL but that takes root also. Does yours have the weather on the home page or just the date? When you hold down home button does your Google Assistant pop up?
I'm using this version nexuslauncher_7.1.1-3368800-103_minAPI21 but pretty sure you still need root to get the feed working.

EDIT: Not sure if I want to risk running this script. Some users posted that their phone got very laggy, had to reformat, or had trouble disabling apps via XML. The script itself just installs 33 apps, but unfortunately it isn't easy to tell which is which. I'd certainly like to give the Pixel dialer a shot, but the apk is just a number.
Maybe if I get some time I'll list them one by one.
EDIT: **** it, using APK-Info to check some of these out. If you download the zip from Mega, when you extract you'll see files 1-33.apk. Not sure how many of these are on the Play store or APK mirror, or if the signatures match and will update automatically.
1: All in one gestures, not sure if this is a pirated version since I used the one from the Play store
2: Battery Bar +
3: Galaxy Button Lights 2
4: Snap Swipe Drawer
5: Recent Bar com.klma.recentbar
6: SamMobile Device Info
7: Rom Control, I think this is the OG dev's app to control multiple things
8: Fingerprint Gestures, com.superthomaslab.fingerprintgestures
9: Internet Speed Meter, com.glitter.internetmeter
10: Light Flow Legacy, weird
11: VolumeControl, com.greatbytes.soundhud
12: Outer Space Wallpaper, com.pppoe.spacewallpaper
13: Awesome Icons, com.momocode.shortcuts
14: Torchie, in.blogspot.anselmbros.torchie
15: Pocket Skip Track, com.silentlexx.volbtntrackctrl
16: RGB Color Wallpaper, com.tecdrop.rgbwallpaper
17: Pixel Launcher, version 7.1.1-3368800, com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher, gonna try this one
18: Phone, version 8.0.147081443, com.google.android.dialer, this is the exact same version as the patched one that's been circulated
19: Camera, version 4.1.006.126161292, com.google.android.GoogleCamera
20: Calendar, version 5.7.8-147353317-release, com.google.android.calendar
22: Clock, version 5.0.1 (3745617), com.google.android.deskclock
24: Wallpapers, version 1.0.139964517, com.google.android.apps.wallpaper
...
UPDATE: Replaced all Samsung apps with Google ones (including dialer, contacts ect...) and installed a new Cameron Bunch them "Pixelize". Those of unfamiliar with him he is one of the best Sammy themers around and he is most known for his material design themes. Verrry good work. I am also rocking Nova prime with a pixel setup and the only thing missing is good lock!!!
