Presents the Official
MIUI RELEASE
Donate to the man responsible to the EVO Gingerbread Build: StiffSpliff
StiffSpliff NEVER asked me to do this but we have to show some respect for his time. Donations keep Dev's from having to charge for sites and other things you see other Dev's doing now a days
I am not connected to these Paypal account's at all in fact I've only donated to it! Linked straight to StiffSpliff aka the man behind this
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
Welcome to the Original XDA support thread for the MIUI HTC EVO 4G and the Official XDA support thread for the MIUI.US version of the HTC EVO 4G port!
MIUI is an extraordinary ROM presented and ported all over the world. We are a worldwide family and this thread supports all HTC EVO 4G MIUI global users. Recent changes have led to the development of two separate HTC EVO 4G MIUI ports. In the interest of providing the most relevant and highest quality support, this thread offers specific support for the ORIGINAL version of the MIUI HTC EVO 4G ROM, which resides at MIUI.US. We will continue to discuss and support general questions about MIUI, however; if you are using the MIUI-devs version of the HTC EVO 4G port and need specific help with that port, we recommend posting your questions in the MIUI-devs home thread. Of course we would welcome you to join us on the Original port here at XDA or at MIUI.US.
As this XDA thread is comprised primarily of original MIUI users running the MIUI.US port it may be difficult for most of us to trouble shoot for a different version. With that stated, MIUI.US is built on cooperation, community and inclusion and we will do our best to assist any and all MIUI enthusiast regardless of port version, release date or handset. MIUI.US is the continuation of a tradition and a new beginning for MIUI on the HTC EVO 4G. Welcome to our community, we are glad you are here and hope you will join us in building the best community on the net!
Your XDA-MIUI.US HTC EVO 4G support team [Stiffspliff, Tyzing, EndlessDissent, Jasonk75 and Just_s & Manup for his amazing graphics, themes and our banner]
Kernel Info: Generally MIUI uses the CM7 stock kernel. Of course others can be used. For more info on the CM7 kernel and CM7 visit: http://bit.ly/z3Cz2O
[BUGS] Official Bugs Report Thread [GB][Fresh Start]
Unable to download from market
Solution: Open the "downloads" app from your homescreen, hit menu, and select download using wifi network. Then hit menu again, and re-select download using mobile network.
No 4G/WIMAX
Stop Asking, its in the works PS Stop asking
The illegible text bug (3rd party apps)
Solution: This is due to the Chinese devs at miui.com slowly implementing the new UI.
(using root explorer as an example)
Go to menu - settings - programs - manage applications - root explorer
Scroll down to "Compatibility mode" and toggle.
This will make root explorer usable.
This workaround may not work on all apps!
It's annoying, yes, but it's what we have at the moment.
Screen flashing black/white when scrolling
Solution: Toggle compatibility mode for that app. If it's on, turn it off. If it's off, turn it on.
No 720P video
Waiting for the Chinese to implement this. Or for CM to implement this. Currently not available on any cm7 or miui supported phone.
Some apps force closing i.e. Engadget, Mint.com, (tried uninstalling and re installing from market)
Solution: try running in compatibility mode, some apps are not 2.3 ready.
No FM Radio App
Solution: None Yet
GPS Menu Settings GPS Fix (Just_s Guide)
menu-settings-personal-my location
use wireless networks - ON (your wifi must be on, doesn't have to be connected)
use gps satellites- ON
see of gps works, if not, go back to same menu
go to gps configuration
in NTP server address, add a 0. in front, to make it 0.north-america.pool.ntp.org
supl server address: supl.google.com
supl server port: 7276
hit ok
**If you are in the US you can alternately set the NTP SERVER ADDRESS to us.pool.ntp.org. Elsewhere in North America should leave it as stiffspliff recommends above. Other countries should see this link: http://www.pool.ntp.org/en/use.html and note the 4th paragraph.
GPS Status & Toolbox Fix
Download 'GPS Status & Toolbox' from Market
Enable GPS
Open GPS Status & Toolbox
Menu > Tools > Manage A-GPS state > Reset
Menu > Tools > Manage A-GPS state > Download
Menu > Tools > Compass calibration > follow popup directions
I know that these have helped several users and are much simpler and faster than the ##GPSCLRX# fix so they can be a good place to start.

MIUI for Beginners
Source: http://en.miui.com/a-10.html
Already flashed MIUI ROM? OK, pick up your phone now, let’s start our happy journey of MIUI ROM.
The first step: selecting apps
Various apps will greatly enrich your cell phone, so firstly let’s select the apps to your taste.
Click Net Disk on the desktop, and you’ll see MIUI has prepared a variety of amazing apps for you, including notes, audios, videos and IM and so on. You are free to choose and install what you like! (Please make sure your phone is connected to wifi.)
> You may also download more apps in electronic markets. You need to install the corresponding market (some can be downloaded in “Net Disk”), and then go get more apps.
> I’d like to install apps downloaded from the computer, what should I do? First copy the downloaded file (.apk) into your SD card. Then pick up your phone, click “File Manager” on the desktop, find the file you copied and click to install it.
Tip: How to copy files from the computer to the phone? First connect your phone to your computer via data cable, pull down the notification panel from the top of the phone, click “USB connected”, and then click "Turn on USB storage”.
After copying, do not forget to select the option of “Turn off USB storage”, otherwise "File Manager” in the phone will not be able to find the sd card, as it is being occupied by the computer.
Now I have a lot of apps, how to put them in order?
All apps successfully installed are listed on the desktop, however, they may not be in the order you want, how to put them in order?
> Long press an app icon and then you may move it freely. When it is moved to the screen border, the screen will automatically switch to the next screen.
> How to add a screen? Use two fingers to pinch on the desktop to enter screen thumbnail mode. Then you may add or delete screens.
> How to delete an app? Long press the app icon you want to delete, drag it on top of the trash box and click OK to delete it.
The second step: let's make your phone different.
A phone without style is nothing remarkable, so let’s make your phone different!
> Changing wallpaper: Click Menu button on the desktop, select “Change Wallpaper” to replace the wallpaper. In addition to the existing wallpaper in the phone, thousands of pieces of wallpaper are also available online.
> Changing theme: Themes make great changes to your interface style. Click “Theme Manager” on the desktop to select the theme you like. Also, more online themes are available online.
> Selecting ringtones and more: click “Settings” on the desktop to set call and notification ringtones. In “Personalization” under “Personal” tab, you may find more options.
The third step: it’s time for some advanced techniques!
Well, you are no longer a beginner now, so let’s learn some advanced techniques.
> Adding widgets on the desktop: press the Menu button on the desktop, select "Edit Mode", and then click the icon on the upper right corner to access the interface of “Add Widgets”. Choose your favorite widget on the top, and then drag it to the screen below.
> Using folders to manage desktop apps: in the interface of “Add Widgets”, drag [Folder] to the desktop. You may drag multiple apps into folders to classify them. After opening the folder, you may click the edit icon in the upper left corner to rename the folder.
> Using toggles panel to improve efficiency: drag the notification panel down from the top, click "Toggles" to go to the toggles panel (It goes to the toggles panel in default of notice.) On the panel are listed the most commonly used toggles, you may click to quickly enable or disable a toggle. Long press on the icon will launch the settings for that icon.
> Guest mode: enable the “Guest Mode” toggle in the panel, and your calls and text messages logs will be hidden, and all installed applications cannot be removed. You may have a try when you need to show your phone to guests or children.
> Importing contacts or binding accounts: you may use some apps to import a batch of contacts, or bind Google account directly in "Settings"> "Personal"> "Accounts & Sync Settings" to sync contacts at any time.
> How to print screens? Press "Menu" key and "Volume Down" key at the same time to print a screen. The printed image is saved in the directory of MIUI in the sd card.

Enter the given address on the computer, then you may copy files without using a data cable!

MIUI In The News
MIUI is far from a "basement app" here is some news from MIUI:
http://technode.com/2011/04/14/rumour-lei-jun’s-miui-android-rom-teams-up-with-guess-who/
Lei Jun is ex-Kingsoft CEO (like Microsoft), co-founder of Joyo.com (sold to Amazon), now Chairman of Great Wall Club and Angel Investor. His newer product, MIUI under his start-up Xiaomi, is stirring rumours about an OEM partnership.
MIUI is a 3rd party Android ROM tailored for the Chinese market. Think about it like a layer on top of your Windows OS on your computer, to make it more customised and personal, but on mobile. From their website it says it enables faster dialling, better security and a big library of themes and skins.
Last weekend at a developer conference there was some chatter about MIUI partnering with a big OEM. We can speculate it could be with Samsung, Motorola or LG because all are bringing their Android phones into the Chinese market. We have reason to suspect the OEM partner is Motorola because as an American based OEM, they know less about Chinese user behaviour compared to Korean based Samsung or LG. It has also been reported that Dianxin, another Android ROM incubated under Innovation Works is partnering with Sharp. Motorola needs to make a good impression to stand out in China, where competition with other Android phone’s is fierce

http://technode.com/2011/01/13/why-xiaomi-raised-35millions-to-design-a-real-phone/
Xiaomi is an iPhone/Android development company invested by Lei Jun, the board chairman of UCWeb, the leading Chinese mobile browser; ex-executive director of Kingsoft; co-founder of Joyo.com which is sold to Amazon at 2004. We used to report that,
Xiaomi has raised another round of $35million from Morningside Venture and Qiming Venture partner. The valuation of Xiaomi is reported at $200million.
$200million valuation?! Seriously, as an iPhone/Android development company, Xiaomi is able to attract that much of attention and money, which sounds insane. I could not get it, until yesterday two friends both confirmed with me, Xiaomi is not just about designing mobile applications, but designing a phone, I mean a real phone.
Looking at Lei Jun’s recent investment, I am totally impressed,
UCWeb – the leading Mobile browser (our previous coverage);
Xiaomi – one of the most promising iPhone/Android development company which already released several applications including Xiaomi Reader (iBooks like) and Miliao (a copycat of Kik);
MIUI – Android-based mobile OS;
Xiaomi Phone?!
So Lei Jun has the mobile operating system, the browser and the applications, once there is a nice phone, he actually is able to reach all the important sectors in future’s mobile phone industry. Smart!
The rumor says that the phone will come into the market in Q3, 2011. Is Lei Jun building a Chinese Apple?

Copy_To_internal_sd (SDCARD) - From KM - to display the speed by GPS in the screensaver in KM / H - Russia, Europe, etc.
It is necessary to copy the entire folder mtce-utils to the root of the internal (sdcard) memory and activate the module in Xposed !!!!
8. Added module for Xposed graser (thanks to him for helping me adapt the module for my firmware) dasaita-xposed. Read about the module here - http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=820460&st=260#entry62211995

Awesome work! I enjoyed your firmware on my MTCB unit. I did see some issues with bluetooth where the adapter name, and password would be reset, but since it has resolved itself. Also, could you please add the CarPro Launcher back as the default? It was far easier to use than the one included. Once again, great work!

Hal9k Mod v1.318.04.2018
OTA-package: 24.06.2018Hal9k Mod 2.x based on Android 7 is located here.
Those who had radio on Android 2.3, may remember my firmware for it.
Today I want to offer you a firmware for the MCTD platform with a Rockchip rk3188 processor, Android 5.1.1 and a screen resolution of 1024x600 or 800x480. It's made on the basis of the latest official version from HCT.
You can install this firmware on your radio, if in Settings > About device > Version info>
MCU version starts with MTCD. After can be any letters, two, three, four - it does not matter.
Build number starts with rk3188.
Version info example:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Also, to restore the radio, if something goes wrong, you should be able enter the recovery.
The main advantages and trends of development of this mod:
New features.
Correction of existing errors and imperfections of the stock.
Best responsiveness in comparison of the stock + the ability for the user to improve this indicator.
The customizability. All critical changes made on my taste, you can customize for yourself or do as it was in the stock.
Twice the internal memory without using FUSE.
All changes made directly in application code without the use of Xposed framework for best perfomance.
Stability.
The stock design.
When switching from any other firmware, user data deletion is necessary.
If you are upgrading from a previous version, no data deletion is required, but it is recommended. Especially if you used microG in the previous version.
How to install the firmware ?
Extract the dupdate.img file from the archive to the root of the USB stick or SD card. It must be formatted in FAT32.
Remember to remove all other USB sticks, SD cards, modems and other devices from the radio.
Insert the USB stick in the USB jack. It is advisable to use the jack in which it is defined as USB1 (see, for example, in the player).
If you installing the firmware over a previous version, go to recovery mode, select the fourth item (update the system/mcu image from usb) and wait for system startup.
Otherwise, if you had a different firmware, go to recovery mode and select the fifth item (update the system/mcu image from usb and clear all).
After a while the flashing process will fail and the radio will reboot again in recovery mode.
Then the flashing process should restart automatically. But it is not always the case.
Therefore, if the process is not restarted, you must again select the fifth item in the recovery menu.
Of course, you can install the firmware from the SD card, but using a USB stick is more reliable and faster.
Also you can install the firmware through the System updates in Settings.
If you have an older version of MCU, I advise you to update to the current version.
If you like my ROMs and you want to thank me, I ask you to make a donation. You can find required details on my website or just click here.

Made a list of applications that allow the screen saver to be started.
You can add a third-party launcher or player to it, for example.
Added the ability to switch tracks in third-party players using the steering wheel buttons for owners of CAN-adapters for Mercedes cars, etc.
Made a list of applications that are restarted after sleep.
I included the PCRadio application in it. Now it always starts playback correctly after exiting sleep, if it was started when HU go to sleep.
In PCRadio's settings, you must enable the "Resume playback when application starts" switch. Also it is necessary to remove it from the whitelist if it was added to it.
Editing the whitelist now does not require a restart of the HU.

Added the ability to display the volume control at the top, middle or bottom of the screen.
Added the ability to adjust the time during which the volume control remains on the screen after changing the volume value.
Has been made a list of applications that should not work simultaneously.
This list is an extension of the corresponding system list.
If one of the applications included in this list is launched, then the rest are closed.
That is, for example, if you include the same PCRadio, then it will close when you start the stock Music or Radio. And vice versa.
Added the ability to move the statusbar to the bottom of the screen. (Experimental option.)
Changed the logic of the name request for the button of the stored radio station.

Added the ability to choose from ten screensavers. Pictures here.
Added the ability to turn off the full-screen keyboard.
Added the ability to turn off the restarting applications that worked before going to sleep.
In the application "Wheelkey Study" added actions "turn off the screen backlight", "recent applications" and "F-Cam application".
In the OEM added 4 launchers (HLA, JY, KGL, KLD). Selection of the launcher after installation is made as usual, by pressing the Home button, as in the phone.
Made a list of navigational apps that muffle other sounds when playing voice prompts.
The list should include all navigation applications, including the one that is set by default to the Navi button.
Added GPS Test Plus.
Updated the time zones to version 2018d.
After updating without a wipe, make sure that the time zone is set correctly.
Other changes, to improve stability.
Ideas of some improvements are taken from the module xposed-mtce-utils and other modules with the permission of the author, MVG-V70. For which I thank him very much.
But they are implemented without using the Xposed framework.

If you have GSM modem connected to your radio, go to UnifiedNlp Settings and turn on Mozilla Location Service in "Configure location backends" and Nominatim in "Configure address lookup backends".
Then go to Self-Check and verify that all the checkboxes are enabled (the check boxes in the lower part is only available with GSM modem).
Recreate Google account.
How to install TomTom and other apps in Play Market that are not visible on the radio ?
You have to change just one variable in build.prop: ro.product.device You can do it with your favorite text editor or with this app
You need to change the value of the variable from rk3188 to another. For example, mctd or even rk3189.
Reboot the radio. TomTom will be visible in the Play Market.
In order to have TomTom connected to his server and downloaded the maps, it is necessary to add another variable to the build.prop: ro.serialno=right half of your serial number (16 digits) and reboot the radio.
Altered serial number will be shown in Settings > CAR > About device > Status.
This method has a negative side. Applications that are already attached to your serial number (e.g. russian navigation software Navitel) will require reattach.
So, after installing and running TomTom is better to return all back.

Looks and sounds great - the best ROM I ve seen on any MTC head unit !! Very professional and with a screen lock too - the holy grail on MTC !!
Any chance of an MTCB/C version ? (I help test if needed, sure others would volunteer too).

typos1, thank you for review.
It will be very difficult, because I do not have MTCB radio.
I have plans for Android 7 and some hardware.

I know its a big ask, but I could help as I have 2 units and I m certain other MTCB owners would help test if you constructed an image that would theoretically work, send it to us, we test and report back problems, even carry on development ourselves to sort minor problems, the ROM looks so good.
Sorry to hijack your thread so soon :-/
typos1, I can't promise to you. Maybe in future.
Thanks

4 Gb in Internal storage and 9,5 Gb in nand flash.
I have flashed dupdate.img firmware from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...-development/mtcdkd-factory-firmware-t3477176 onto my KGL unit without problems. This looks like a much more refined ROM and would like to try it. Have you tested iGO and Torque on it? or is this just a modified version from the KD thread?
stefcio007, this is my custom ROM with lots of changes. It's suitable for any MTCD device with rk3188 processor and Android LP 5.1.1
iGO and Torque work on it without any problems.
is the gui only in english and russian?

Sygic app (com.sygic.aura) is works. Just checked.
Navigon app also should work. But, since this app is paid, I can't check.
Installed your ROM, working fast after switching to MicroG. Have to test it a while, Torque is working perfect now, no "Adapter not found" issue *THUMBSUP*
Just one thing, where i can find the OEM Folder, want to install the DAB+ App.
quintez, thank you for your feedback.
DAB+ Application is missing in this firmware, unfortunately. I'll add it in the next version.
Currently, you can download it here.
Introduction
Projectivy Launcher is a launcher dedicated to Android Tv, offering special features for Xiaomi family projectors/TVs.
With the new major version that extends the use to all Android TV devices, and for better understanding, the original thread has been split :
The original thread will focus on Xiaomi/Fengmi/Wemax projectors, offering a faq, links to custom recoveries, guide for rooting, links to download stock ROMS and OTAs.
This thread will focus on the launcher itself.
Description
It's a multi purpose launcher that can be used without root, but adds interesting features on rooted ones. It can be installed on most Android Tv devices (to provide automatic boot on HDMI input for example). A bunch of functionnalities are dedicated to devices with amlogic/mediatek SOCs and/or Xiaomi devices.
It can be used as a launcher replacement, or as a standalone app if you only need a side feature.
You don't need root to use this app, except for the features maked with [ROOT] below.
Here are the current features :
Global UI : long press any card/icon to display a contextual menu allowing you to start/uninstall app as well as hide or rearrage it as you like (ie : move or add it to another section)
Input :
Shortcuts to change source to HDMI 1 to 3, AV, as well as opening an onscreen menu to choose the source. These will be useful if you disable the stock launcher, as you will probably lose the stock widget with Tv preview and change source buttons.
Tv Apps :
... : Android Tv dedicated apps will appear here
Mobile Apps :
... : any app not dedicated to Android Tv (whose icon usually doesn't display on Android Tv launchers) will appear here
Display :
Display settings : Add ability to create different display profiles (premium version required for more than 1) that can be applied automatically when changing input source and dynamic range. Most features that could be changed in previous versions (zoom, input lag...) of this app can be added to a display profile and thus automatically available upon boot with no action on your side. The profile editor can also display many calibration screens to help you setup your device as you need. Unless you're using a device based on Android Tv 6, you'll need to have a rooted device. If it's not working for you, you can probably benefit from the calibration patterns it can display (FHD, 4K, Jitter, HDR, DV...)
Zoom : Changes the Zoom in/out factor for video display (external inputs as well as any video player) [ROOT] and also enables access to stock zoom feature if available (to zoom/unzoom full display, not only video, but can't go below 80%)
Force 4k UI rendering [ROOT] : this may cause lags when rendering the UI
Settings :
Projectivy settings:
launcher
Parental control : protect apps with a parental code (totally or during a specific time frame)
Override stock launcher : try to replace the stock launcher even if it hasn't been disabled (which is still the preferred way)
Card size : size of the apps icons
Wallpaper : choose between no wallpaper, user defined one, or random wallpapers from different reddit channels
Use dynamic colors : change main color based on your wallpaper, à la Material You
Show status bar
Unselected lines opacity
Display left headers
Show sections title
Show time
Show app title
Input
Rename HDMI inputs
Disable HDMI inputs so that they're not displayed in the launcher
Prefer internal Tv View : replace the stock HDMI Input app with a custom one. It doesn't support CEC (only system apps can do it), but it might be useful for specific usage
Power control
Startup to : android, specific app or specific Hdmi input
Automatically shutdown when HDMI signal stops (experimental) : trigger a power off when the Hdmi Input app exits automatically (which usually means the input device has been shut down)
Prevent automatic shutdown when idle : some systems automatically shutdown if no user interaction has happened recently, this can prevent this behavior (useful if you start your device with CEC and never touch its remote control
Enable internal idle detection : if use did not touch the remote control for the given time, sned a poweroff or standby command
Device settings : launches the projector/tv/box settings
Additional settings : launches amlogic/mediatek settings app (if available)
Android settings : launches the Android stock settings
Engineering menu : launches the [MiTv/FengOs/Fengmi] engineering menu
Applications :
Remote Control : displays a QR code to my Web Remote Control, working on any device, dedicated to MiTv devices based on Android 6
Freeze stock apps [ROOT] : freezes/hides/disables stock apps/bloatware (for unrooted devices, please check below, in Remarks section, point 3). On MIUI, make sure you install another keyboard (ie "LeanbackIme Keyboard", from the "Install 3rd party apps" menu) as it will disable the stock one. Possibility to specify a package name to disable manually.
(Un)Freeze launchers [ROOT] : (un)freezes/hides stock Xiaomi TvHome, FengOs launcher or Google Leanback launcher. Make sure you have another compatible launcher installed before freezing it (for unrooted devices, please check below)
Install 3rd party apps : lets you choose apps to install. Most will require Aptoide Tv installed. Good news, it's able to download and install it automatically ! If your device is rooted and is on Android 6.01, Google services/apps can be installed too (see more in the Google Apps section) :victory:
Uninstall Google Apps [ROOT] : if you installed Google Apps / services with the feature described above, you can safely uninstall them (but why would you want that ?)
Freeze Google Play [ROOT] : prevents google Play self-update. This is useful on some models, where new Google Play app refuses to install apps due to some incompatibility issue (such as Zodiac)
System :
Accessibility Service : This is a multi-purpose service, that fixes Google Play on Googlized xiaomi devices, binds the stock remote control "Voice recognition" button to Google Assistant (if you installed Google Services), allows your device to automatically start an external input or app on boot, adds a shortcut to open these tools or change picture profile by double pressing the menu button... *** In one word : you want it enabled ***
Custom Props Override [ROOT/MAGISK] : changes some custom props so as to get a more stock Android Tv behavior. This will enable Google services disabled by Xiaomi, allow your "Usb debugging" option to stick across reboots, allow bypassing safetynet... If you install Google Services you need to install them.
About :
ProjecTivy Launcher : displays details about this app
This device : displays many details about this device, and temperature sensors values is available.
This wallpaper : shows details regarding the wallpaper currently displayed
Remarks :
Using any of the above features (even [ROOT] ones) should be safe and shouldn't prevent you from installing stock OTA updates afterwards (no system file is modified). If anything goes wrong, don't hesitate to tell me, but anyways, at worst, factory reset or flashing the full stock ROM will fix any issue, so there isn't any risk of bricking your device.
Except if you have stock launcher or leanback launcher installed (which will force you to use them if installed), if multiple other compatible launchers are installed, a popup will ask your choice at each boot and home button press.
Concerning the (un)freeze apps/launcher, if your device is not rooted, this app currently can't do it automatically, but you can do it manually by connecting a computer to your device with ADB and executing a few command lines :
enable "usb debugging" in your device's "Developer" options (in settings) (to enable "developer options", see here)
Download adb for your OS (check here)
Start command line (terminal)
type adb connect IP_OF_YOUR_DEVICE:5555 to connect through the network
type adb shell to open a shell console
to freeze an app type : pm uninstall -k --user 0 PACKAGE (replace PACKAGE with com.mitv.tvhome for Xiaomi stock launcher, cn.formovie.fengos.desktop for FengOs launcher and com.google.android.leanbacklauncher for Google Leanback launcher)
to unfreeze an app type : cmd package install-existing PACKAGE (replace PACKAGE with the same value as above)
to get a list of manually uninstallable apps, check the rainman.v2.json file on my github
Note: seems that freezing Google TV Launcher on CCwGTV [4K/sabrina or HD/boreal], will stop YouTube login from occurring and will prevent YouTube account switching
Evolution : If you have another device and want this app to support it (meaning using another list of installable/uninstallable apps), don't hesitate to make a PR on my github.
Note on Privacy and Permissions usage
The only data that comes out of the phone is for anonymous usage (firebase analytics) in order to prioritize and improve what's used the most, and crash reporting (firebase crashlytics). Both can be disabled starting from 4.30.
No user data is saved on a private server of shared with any other 3rd party service.
Here are the permissions explicitely requested in Projectivy Launcher along with their usage :
- ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE : get information about current network (ex: statusbar icons, current device IP address)
- INTERNET : seems obvious
- READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE (max sdk 28) : read a Projectivy config file that could be placed on the device before it's installed (for rooted devices)
- INSTALL_SHORTCUT : manage pinned shortcuts
- RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED : start an app on startup (Projectivy is probably the only Tv launcher supporting this)
- REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES (only on non play store version) : install 3rd party apps (ex: aptoide)
- REQUEST_DELETE_PACKAGES : allow users to delete apps
- READ_TV_LISTINGS : ability to show channels/watch next
- BILLING : to buy premium
A few other permissions are required by libs dependencies (mostly Google libs) :
READ_EPG_DATA/WRITE_EPG_DATA : Google tv channels lib
WAKE_LOCK, ACCESS_WIFI_STATE... : Google Firebase
There is also a Notification Listener service that can access your device notifications to display these notifications and now playing data *if enabled*
Last thing you can see that might freak you out : Projectivy can spy on your device activity : this is because of the Accessibility service (that offers a lot of low level insights, *if enabled*).
It's used :
- to launch apps on boot when manufacturers disabled the BOOT_COMPLETED (hello Xiaomi)
- for parental control
- for remote control button remapping
Premium
Premium version on Google Play will give you :
- ability to choose a custom background image
- unlimited parental control protected apps (only 1 in free version)
- unlimited display profiles (only 1 in free version) ***Only on supported devices (if it doesn't work on the free release, that won't change on premium)***
- the satisfaction of supporting this project
- more to come
As of now, this unfortunately can't be bought outside of Google Play because there doesn't seem to be any easy means of doing without taking too much of my time (managing a dedicated server, database, preventing hacks, managing refunds... none of this could be done until this becomes a full time job).
Known issues
- HDMI 1 and HDMI 3 swapped (FengOS, Vava on AmLogic devices) : on recent firmwares, HDMI1 and HDMI3 inputs are swapped in PL. This is a bug in the OS low level libs that send HDMI1 input id when HDMI3 is requested (and the opposite). Can't be easily detected (thus fixed) on my side unfortunately. Just select HDMI1 when you need HDMI3 and vice-versa.
- long press on volume buttons doesn't work on FengOs : there's a bug on FengOs -> as soon as an accessibility service is enabled (Projectivy Launcher, but also Button Mapper for example), the long press volume buttons doesn't work anymore. Worse : unlike any other button, the accessibility service is not notified that a volume button has been pressed, preventing me from developping a workaround :/ Disabling the accessibility service fixes this behavior (but this disables several Projectivy Launcher features)
- unable to add or remove programs from watch next (as on the stock android tv launcher) : the stock launcher has special permissions that allows it to modify "watch next" even if the programs belong to another app. This unfortunately can't be done on a 3rd party launcher
Download / Installation
This app can be downloaded here or installed from Google Play.
Install the apk as usual :
- copy the apk to an usb thumb drive
- plug it into your device
- browse and select apk to install it (you may need to enable "unknown sources installation" from your device's settings)
Not for commercial use. If you want to redistribute it, please contact me.

- improved image picker intent compatibility
Spoiler: 4.00
- *** UI / Design ***
- rebranded to "Projectivy Launcher" as this app is now first and foremost a launcher for any Android Tv device (luckily there's no marketing department or they would have made a heart attack by now ^^)
- refreshed the general app design
- improved customizability (change cards size, enable or disable section title display, app name display, opacity...)
- added ability to create/manage/reorder categories
- each card (app, setting, input) can be managed through its contextual menu
- display randomized wallpapers (changes each 60s)

- a randomized wallpaper can be defined as the user-defined one [Premium]
- dynamic colors based on your current wallpaper (à la "Material You" on Android 12)
- apps are now correctly sorted by name by default
- HDMI inputs can be renamed and hidden
- added languages : German (thanks Stefan), French (thanks Spocky ) - contact me if you want to help translating to your language. If your android settings don't allow you to choose this language (ex : on most chinese Xiaomi projectors), install MoreLocale from "Install 3rd party apps" section

- *** Compatibility / Performance ***
- vastly improved startup time
- optimized for smoothness/reactivity in general
- hugely decreased memory used
- added compatibility with old mitv3 (and more generally Android 5.1.1)
- many bugs fixed
- *** Features ***
- added ability to override the current launcher (the preferred way is still to freeze/uninstall it). This app will then automatically launch on boot and intercept calls to the stock launcher so as to start itself above it
- added parental control management (=requiring a code to start an app/input). This is by no means hacker proof, but kids/random guests should be stopped. [Premium for more than 1 app]
- parental control can be active only for a period of the day.
- prevent automatic system power off when idle
- added an internal idle detection with ability to shutdown after a specific inactivity time
- added ability to automatically shutdown if the HDMI input display app stops by itself (meaning no more HDMI signal). While not foolproof, this can handily replace a missing CEC shutdown function on your device
- added HDR / DV calibration patterns
- added an internal tv viewer to replace the vendor one. It doesn't support CEC (android limitation) but will allow more customization in the future
- "about / this device" now shows information regarding which display range is supported (HLG, HDR10, DV...)
- added a direct link to configure the accessibility service
- added ability to autostart on the "last used input"
- added ability to reinstall/unfreeze frozen packages/launchers [root]

- app self update support
- [FengOS] added a direct link to a second engineering menu (useful to get temperature logs)
- [FengOS] added a link to the input source popup
- [Mediatek] added a link to advanced configuration (advanced picture settings, MEMC with DV, and more...)
Spoiler: 3.56
- fix : fixed a bug in the display profiles structure binding them to the tools version they were created on (causing a reset of the profiles on each new release of the tools)
Warning : this version will reset your display profiles (even if you're coming from 3.55). Please make sure you've noted the values so that you can recreate them. Sorry for the inconvenience, this won't happen again.
Spoiler: 3.55
- feature : set sharpness step to 1 instead of 10 in display profile manager on MiTv devices
- feature : third party remote control buttons HDMI 1/2/3 and keyboard keys F1/F2/F3 are directly bound to HDMI input change (side effect : for home automation systems, sending adb keyevent KEYCODE_TV_INPUT_HDMI_3 will start input HDMI3 for example).
- feature : added ability to disable auto power off on user inactivity when cold booted (MiTv) [root]
- feature : display profile manager can now display HDMI inputs in calibration preview
- fix : "android" display profile incorrectly applied on projector startup

- fix : crash when no display profile available
- fix : crash when starting some activities
- fix : autostart app not always working on FengOs
- fix : "install 3rd party apps" option not always available when it should
Spoiler: 3.54
- rebranded app (yes, again ) to "ProjecTivy Tools". No more "Mi" because it's not dedicated solely to Xiaomi products anymore.

- redesigned some UI parts (and no more transparent background as per Google Play Android Tv requirement)
- feature : ability to start an app on boot
- feature : ability to block Google Play updates (for zodiac and maybe other devices)

- feature : accessibility service features (remote control shortcuts, mic button binding) can be enabled individually
- feature : information display relative to current source input (resolution, dynamic range)
- feature : launcher shortcuts (hdmi inputs, media explorer) can now be hidden if not used
- feature : app can fully replace a launcher (optimisations, lists all Android Tv and Mobile apps)
- feature : can replace launcher even when security measures prevent it (FengOs)
- feature : added english translations to FengOs settings app
- fix : long press back to improve input lag restored
- fix : improved stability of the accessibility service (notably on Android 8+)
- fix : better management of the direct downloads in "install 3rd party apps" (errors correctly managed, cancelation possible, support for android 8+)
- fix : added support for magisk 20+
- fix : improved overall compatibility with android 8.1/9
- feature : added compatibility with FengOs for most features
- feature : display profiles management (premium feature for more than 1 profile)
- feature : display profiles can be set automatically on input and/or dynamic range change
- feature : display profiles can be switched manually from the remote control
- feature : display profile editor displays multiple calibration helper screens
- feature : display profiles can manage : contrast/brightness/hue/saturation/sharpness, color temperature gain AND offset (not available in stock projector UI), dynamic color/contrast switches, noise reduction and interlacing switches (to reduce input lag), video zoom, backlight (more options than on the stock UI), tv backlight (for tvs)
- did I mention display profiles don't require root on Android 6 ?
- ...and should work on most amlogic devices (xiaomi, vava, xgimi...), at least on android 6 devices ?
Spoiler: 3.00
- rebranded app to "Mi ProjecTivy Tools" because why not.
- stability : added a screen resolution check at boot. If a wrong resolution is set in the Android tv settings, the device won't be locked on the chessboard screen anymore, it will switch back to the default resolution (rainman and batman supported)
- stability : set this app as a Tv Launcher, so if all launchers are mistakenly disabled, the device will boot on it so that a launcher can be reinstalled
- UI : made menu buttons dynamic, so they won't show on your device if the feature is not supported
- UI : rewrote all submenu interface to use Android Tv UI. This vastly improved look and usability
- UI : changed menu icons
- UI : if accessibility service is running, the app can be opened by double pressing the "menu" button
- feature : added an option to change the zoom in/out factor for video display (external input and all media players)
- feature : added option to switch window manager to 4k (interface will likely not be totally fluid, though)
- feature : rewrote the option to decrease input lag so that you can disable "noise reduction" and "deinterlacing" individually
- feature : added a shortcut (qrcode) to MiReCo, the Web Remote Control
- feature : made the shortcuts section dynamic : it will now display all installed apps not natively compatible with Tv launchers (like the "Tv App Repo" app)
- feature : added "about this device" section that displays many details as well as the temperature sensors values
- improvement : made the hdmi input shortcuts compatible with international (android tv 8+) devices
- improvement : rewrote code to automatically start on a selected external input. This brings support for international models. IT WON'T USE the stock device settings anymore to select the input. Use the included parameter in "Input Settings"
- feature : added a shortcut to the stock "media explorer" directly in Tv launchers
- feature : added a warning if accessibility service is not enabled
- fix : fixed compatiblity with Netflix (not the Tv version, unfortunately, but the interface is totally usable). Due to missing DRM support, resolution is limited to SD.
- internal : many fixes and improvements (and bugs ?)
Spoiler: 2.17
- added ability to reduce input lag and disable noise reduction by long pressing "back" button.
Spoiler: 2.16
- added auto start to hdmi (as stock launcher), so that users who changed launcher won't miss this feature.
Updated to 4.01 to fix a bug preventing the "install 3rd party apps" section to be accessed.
Wow very impressive. The UI looks vastly improved. I just installed it on my Mi Projector 2 Pro and it looks really nice!
However I am still not getting the ability to adjust picture profile. Do I need to root it for it to work?
Very neat new UI, greetings!
@spocky12 , I just updated to your 4.0.1 , it seems like the previous intent is not valid anymore :
C:\RFLINK>.\adb.exe -s 192.168.1.123:5555 shell am start -n com.spocky.projengmenu/.activities.input.SourceHDMI1Activity

Did you change something?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Thanks for your compliments. I spent literally hundreds hours of work to rewrite most of the UI code, improving it's customisability as well as it's efficiency.
For now, picture profiles will only work on mitv Android 6 devices.
On more recent Android versions :
- amlogic devices will require root (but we don't have any root method right now)
- mediatek devices (Fengmi T1, Xiaomi c2...) *might* be supported in the future

Thank you !
You're right, rewriting + refactoring led to changes in activity names:
com.spocky.projengmenu/.ui.guidedActions.activities.input.SourceHDMI1Activity
(Note that it might change again in the future as I've just realized they shouldn't be classified in the guidedActions, so don't hesitate to ask if an update changes it)
Big thanks, this is really excellent! Great to see the continued development into Projectivy.
I am running it on a rooted Wemax Pro. I have a few questions:
* Is Projectivy meant to replace ATV launcher? Or do both co-exist? How to select, which launcher to use?
* What's the latest on Youtube? Best to use the one that can be downloaded under 3rd party app or directly from the Google Play store? I tried to do via Productivy and get the error message "incompatible device. Please download another version of the application and try again, error code (-113)"
* I also tried to download PLEX from Google Play store and see the following error message: "Can't install app: Plex [...{ can't be installed. Try again, and if the problem continues, get help troubleshooting (error code: 910)"
Thanks for any help you may have for me!
Please add Vava Chroma triple laser to the list of currently supported devices - it is a mediatek based device. Thanks.
One odd thing: "Input" is greyed out in "launcher settings". So, I cannot add the HDMI sources to the main screen. Anything I am missing?
Hi @spocky12 great job on the new app.
I've installed it on my Wemax One Pro, an issue that I am having is with Google Play store, which i cannot get to launch. When I click the icon the screen goes blank for a second and just returns to the launcher.
I also had the issue on the previous incarnation of the app.
I'm also running Magisk 24.3 and rooted.
I've deleted cache and also tried re-installed, still the same thing.
Great job. The only problems I see is missing option to select HDMI input and a option to restore hidden application. Maybe I can't find it

Projectivy is a complete launcher replacement. I suppose you can still use ATV if you prefer, there's nothing in Projectivy preventing the execution of any other launcher. How you choose which one you want depends on your OS. On mitv (and probably any stock Android tv device), if the stock launcher is disabled, Android asks which one you want.
On FengOs, they disabled this behavior, so if the stock launcher is disabled and no launcher is started, Projectivy starts automatically.
Regarding YouTube, if you have Google play, it is probably the best way to install it.
On Chinese devices without any Google services, installing from Aptoide usually works. However, I couldn't understand the compatibility issues between Aptoide and Xiaomi app installer : sometimes, a specific version of YouTube will install fine and others won't. And in the future it might stop installing correctly. The one I link to from Projectivy is the latest version that is allowed too install on my device without any error message (at least it was, 2 months ago). If it doesn't work, chances are that another one will install fine, just browse the available versions in Aptoide.
As for Plex, is probably an incompatibility with Xiaomi's app installer, no idea why it did this though.

Did you test Projectivy on this device ? If so, what are the problems you encountered ?

This is probably a bug.
To prevent HDMI input section from being displayed on devices that don't have such inputs (ex: tv boxes), I hide this section when the Android tv framework is unavailable or when no HDMI input (plugged or not) is returned by the system.
I will test again on mitv devices, I might have overlooked something.

As written above, the hidden HDMI input section is a bug I need to explore (works fine on FengOs).
As for restoring a hidden app, you can do it : open the settings panel (contextual menu button on your remote control or select the settings icon next to the hour) and select the first entry (manage categories), then select the category where you want to restore an app.
Thanks @spocky12, happy to test once you have a test release with the HDMI issue solved? Also, let me know if any logs to provide for troubleshooting.
Hello , It can be installed on XIAOMI C2 ?
Thanks
Thanks. Loaded onto Feng OS 2.0.
@spocky12 I can't update apps anymore, each time I went into Google Play Store, it asked me to sign in. I signed on and the same page kept showing asking to sign in again.
I've updated to ProjectTivy 4 launcher but still same issue. Can anyone help?

Thanks!

Hi, im using my new HP BP5000 with a sucks custom OS in Android 8.0, codename: shadow / sugarcane (not sure which one to read from). Tried to enable accessibility services but it seems locked.
I was able to enable it by force write in adb for another app called "tvquickactions", but I got an error when I try to do that for this launcher with error below, can you help?
adb shell pm grant com.spocky.projengmenu android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGSOperation not allowed: java.lang.SecurityException: Package com.spocky.projengmenu has not requested permission android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
Also I tried the hdmi switching adb command that you posted above, but I still got the same class error
adb.exe -s 192.168.1.100:5555 shell am start -n com.spocky.projengmenu/.ui.guidedActions.activities.input.SourceHDMI1ActivityError type 3Error: Activity class {com.spocky.projengmenu/com.spocky.projengmenu.ui.guidedActions.activities.input.SourceHDMI1Activity} does not exist.
running 4.01, thanks for helping and creating this!
I just installed this on my Mi Smart Compact Projector (Gen 1, Global, M005MGN).
Great job on this slick UI ! Although I can't root this device to really tweak it, the features included in non-root Projectivy are plenty to suit my needs ATM.
Just a quick question before I start to mess with ADB. I see in your instructions that we can "freeze" packages, but your command is pm uninstall. Shouldn't I use pm disable, if I simply want to freeze(not remove) the package?
My concern is if I want to restore and I don't have the original package file handy, I will need to restore factory defaults to get it back and then I have to start all over. I was thinking DISABLE gives me a chance to see what I would be missing, and if I want the stock app back, I could just re-enable it.
Thanks for your work and response to my "noob" question.
Hi Spocky, great work as usual! The new version looks amazing. However, I would like to contribute and buy Premium, but I don't want any of the google bullsh*t. Any way to donate/get premium otherwise?
Thanks!
This app is a godsend. No other launcher can change inputs on me. Unfortunately on my TV the stock launcher is what starts the Input menu. I have to leave the launcher running in the background in order to use the input list.
Is it possible to add an input list internal to the app? The relevant activity is. https://github.com/AndroidTVDevelop...id/tvlauncher/inputs/InputsPanelActivity.java
Also please consider adding the ability to pin shortcuts. This way I can say take the apps page of settings and bind it to a button. Otherwise this is not possible, correct me if I'm wrong.

You sorta need to do both. Uninstal then user-disable again if you don't have root. You can reinstall the package again if its a system/rom app as it doesn't REALLY get removed.
