EDIT:

So according to this thread, this is a Google related change and not Nvidia?

In which case, similar to the banner issue from a previous update, you can get a different launcher (see comments for FLauncher) to avoid it

Is there a good alternative to Google TVs? I recently bought a TV and absolutely hate Google on it.

I have a media server, is there a way to install a launcher for my TV that can access Netflix, YouTube, Plex and other services?

Do you have the playstore on it?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (6 children)

On the TV? Yes, I do.

I haven't tried using adb to install new launchers yet.

Is it easy to set up as the default launcher?

Sorry, I don't see how to set it as the default. How do you do it?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I use that same one. I think granting it accessibility privileges let it become default.

Apparently TCL disabled that option.
