Now that Google has released the Android TV launcher onto the play store i'm curious to try and install this APK on my LG Google TV and see how it runs. Anyone know where I can find the APK?? Thanks.

Maybe soon on apkmirror.com!
yeah i would like to get this on my Minix Neo X7 TV box
Cant wait for this to get ported to other devices. Beelink R89 please!
Bump...
Can someone who is rooted download the APK and upload please??

This wasn't uploaded by me, but somebody posted the APK
Doesn't seem to work on my CM11 phone, haven't had the chance to try it on my Amlogic MXIII TV box yet.

It will not work with otner devices exept nexus box and i also think that it is too pity that it works only with some devices, i think they are mistaken with this decision.
I use Handy Smart TV Launcher (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.handysmart.android.launcher&hl=en)with its’ remote control app for my tv box and i ‘m sure that it will be the main rival for this new launcher from Google. Morover it works with a lot of mobile devices and tv-boxes and have intuitive remote control app.

What console exactly? Can you list your specs, We don't test any sonsoles yet as our apps optimized for tv-boxes. We cannot guarantee that apps will work appropriate on all devices.
Kinda surprised that nobody has been successful in hacking this to work on regular old android builds. Considering the Google play launcher from lollipop was ported to older versions of android before the play store version was updated I'd think it would be technically possible at least... Too bad I don't have the knowledge to do it myself.

That is the name of the console. Xtreamer Multi-console. You can check the info here http://www.xtreamer.net/MultiConsole/
Is it possible to make it work on Xiaomi Mi Box Pro?
hmm
I have it / installed running (laidbacklauncher) whatever that drop box apk was.. it installs.. and runs.. but if you click the voice seach, it crashes, and it looks like its constantly loading (recommendations) but it deffinately loaded.
(Note 2 I317m - model phone)
But i changed a setting in the system via build.prop editor changing the brand of my device to nexus where it before was T0lte (custom firmware for note 2)
i never attempted to install it prior so i dont know if it will load or not. going to see if the play store detects my phone as a nexus and allows the apk download.. (fingers crossed)
Ok... It might be repetitive, I come from the LG / Sammy world, so I am new to the Huawei universe...
I've been reading through a lot of threads, like a lot hahaha, I just want to get one last confirmation before I order it (still not sure if I'm gonna get the L29 or L00, although the 6gb/128 is really interesting to me) .
I know people like @duraaraa are working hard to get us something rolling! And thanks for that! I know some other devs (from other phones) are wanting to jump into this pool, so this could become and interesting devs device in the very close future.
But I have some questions, or more like confirmations to ask:
Huawei now really "unofficially" released the GMS for the Chinese / Hong-Kong version of the m9 (4gb/32, 4gb/64, 6gb/128 and 6gb/256). For the users on the AL00, can you please confirm the following :
- you have a 100% English rom or other mulingual possibility (meaning no trace of Chinese writing or other, except maybe some Chinese apps)
- Google playstore, all apps are installable (swiftkey, nova launcher, etc..) and are working 100%
- push services (Gmail, exchange, etc..) are working 100%
- auto sync services (Dropbox, Google photos, etc...) are syncing with no issues
- that you are on the latest firmware and you think now that updates will bring no issues in the future
- do you really see a big difference with the extra 2gb of Ram or is it placebo
- if you do have issues, please tell me
- last but not least :which of the 2 you think will have more development? AL 29 or AL 00
- you have a 100% English rom or other mulingual possibility (meaning no trace of Chinese writing or other, except maybe some Chinese apps)
Yes. No Chinese writing except in Chinese apps.
- Google playstore, all apps are installable (swiftkey, nova launcher, etc..) and are working 100%
I don't have nova launcher, but swiftkey works. Everything is installable.
- push services (Gmail, exchange, etc..) are working 100%
Yes.
- auto sync services (Dropbox, Google photos, etc...) are syncing with no issues
Yes.
- that you are on the latest firmware and you think now that updates will bring no issues in the future
Yes, but without unlocking the bootloader you will only be able to install updates that Huawei wants you to install. Ergo, no betas.
- do you really see a big difference with the extra 2gb of Ram or is it placebo
How would I know? I only have 6GB version. It probably only matters if you use all the RAM.
- if you do have issues, please tell me
Screen touch responsiveness is not as good as other phones. Huawei has been adjusting it a lot from build to build. Hopefully they get it right soon.
- last but not least :which of the 2 you think will have more development? AL 29 or AL 00
With an unlocked bootloader, development will be the same for both. With locked bootloader, you currently have more options with AL00, because that's what I have so that's what I'm working with, and because Huawei has several versions of firmware which can be flashed to AL00, but only one which can be flashed to L29 at the moment. I think Huawei focuses mainly on China, so support of the Chinese phone will be better.
Well, thanks for that quick reply!
Can confirm all Duraaraa said. I got mine, had B109 with working g Google services and I uninstalled all the Google stuff, did OTA to B125. Then it offered B135 OTA so did that. After reboot I stalled GMS and Play store and all good. Had to install Google contacts from APK mirror, and had to go to permission manager and allow Google app as trusted and auto start to get OK Google functionality working but all good now.
Only issue I am having is a few apps won't install. For instance, the CBS watch TV app ... click on install from store and it starts download and the before it finishes store just closes. A couple games do this as well. Working on figuring it out.

@SWBgHz hi, I think to solve your issue with CBS watch TV app go to the play store app permission and make sure Storage have that permission on.
I got mine last Friday nice phone, software is really bad.
After i got everything working on mine. now play store will not work ...keep downloading. i did try everything and still not working.
I have few apps needs update , it is just downloading
I can not get notification from any app
it seems that i will have to factory reset.
I think you guys should download HI suit for back up and restore .
waiting for a better Rom.
Edit: Play store start behave normal again and its working fine.
still can not see notification from my major apps like gmail...etc
I had already tried adding additional permissions as well as setting Play store as trusted app but no joy. Just a few apps do same as CBS on, store closes during download phase.

Sure enough, storage wasn't allowed. Odd thing is I checked that and allowed all manually, or thought I did.

Make sure that Play Store has Storage permissions. That should fix your problem.
Edit: Oops, late reply
Abject lesson in checking things twice. I swear I did add permissions but such is life. Doh!

I recently switched to the Oneplus 7 Pro, updated to Android 10 and to my surprise, the calls made through WhatsApp and other similar apps can now be routed through Gear S3.
I also tested this on Pixel XL running Android 10 and so I assume it should work on all Android 10 devices.
Just wanted to let you guys know in case it hasn't been mentioned already.

Can you tell me how you got your plugin working?? I'm on a Pixel XL and it keeps telling me to check my software and update. I couldn't install from the play store it said my device was incompatible. So I downloaded the app but I get the update message... Any help would be amazing! Can't use my watch at all...

Hmm. Never ran into that issue. Maybe try hiding magisk manager and also using magisk hide for the three apps related to gear S3.
Also, in my case, the apps were available on the play store.
Are you sure you're using the latest apks?
Running Lineage 17 ROM may have been the issue as it was incompatible in the Play Store. Found a solution today figured I'd post it here as this was a top link for my search and hopefully it will help others.
Reset your watch and remove all Samsung related apps from your phone.
Install these two APK's and your back in business
https://www.dropbox.com/s/37untd7w3gkdlzs/gearoplugin_2.2.03.apk?dl=0
https://www.dropbox.com/s/en5dco911boyu17/watchmanager_2.2.27.apk?dl=0
For me, these plugins were incompatible in the Play store and many others I tried did not work. Only these 2 versions got me up and running again, so I figured I'd share them from my DB to hopefully help others.
After learning through a lot of smali guides on XDA , I finally managed to make my own Amazon Prime Mod
For many of us that don't have ChromeCast or any other external device to Cast to the Television or any other casting device , here comes a solution for the annoying Black Screen (Black Screen where only audio plays no video)
The black screen is a protection for the DRM content being played by Amazon and I managed to remove it
Features:-
Enabled Screen Mirroring (No need of chromecast or any screencast device)
You can find the apks here
amazon_prime_3.0.268.28447.apk
amazon_prime_3.0.269.96447.apk
Folder Link
Prime_Patched
I will keep updating the app with the PlayStore apk updates
Here you can find a sample screenshot
Sample.img
Please note that the Amazon Shopping App won't run together with this app.Uninstall that before using this mod
(I am still trying to figure out the reason though)
Reserved just in case
error install in xiaomi 9t pro miui 11.0.6 stable.
PD: Uninstall shop amazon xD, now install ok and work great!!, thank you

Hi, Thanks for the mod apks. I've not tried them yet. Funny thing is, prime works in Marshmallow without mod or virtual exposed, but not in higher android upgrades. But other apps like netflix don't work at all.
I just wanted to know if you could help us in telling what to mod in the apk, so I can try it in Other apps.

That Black Screen is restrictions for DRM content
Mostly all of that started after Marshmallow, therefore no issue to Android versions below that (ofcourse xD)
What I modded in this app was a flag which told a certain method if the content was DRM or not
For example if you take Prime certain sections can be cast to the screen and certain sections cannot
That flag determines it
So before you reverse engineer , you must know how to engineer
The key to engineering such a feature is Google
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/Display#FLAG_SECURE
Now to reverse this
I first found out all occurences of FLAG SECURE throughout the app ( Don't ask me how, if you don't know you need to read all the other smail guides all around. it's the basics) and then a little knowledge of smali helped me disable it
HONESTLY, It's time to get a New TV with Android
Thanks

thanks a lot.. you saved the day for me,..
Since this thread is receiving a good response and huge thanks to a guy called Joshua (who just PMed) me with the fix to work both Prime and Amazon shopping together, I'll post the latest apk for Prime with the black screen stuff removed
And also if possible I'll try to do it with Netflix too
Cheers to you guys!
Will you still post the latest apk?
I can't install your files from last april (can't uninstall the other Amazon apps, only deactivating since they are preinstalled as bloatware - but that won't help on my XZ2 device)
So at the moment I use an older device for streaming where your apk works. However, installation of the other Amazon apps like Amazon Photos fails...
So your updated apk will be greatly appreciated

I actually have a solution that worked for me that you can do yourself!
I cloned the official latest VS of prime using app cloner arm, and selected options : redirect external storage, allow screenshots, and disable screen mirroring. Despite what you would think, with those options enabled I am actually able to screen mirror through my phones video out (I haven't tried wireless mirroring but as nothing else was working for my video out I presume it will work as well)
Good luck and let me know if it works for you!
So after not using It for an hour or so, when opening the cloned app again I got a sync error.
Restart on reinstall 2 golden rules

Thanks for the App Cloner suggestion
I tried and also got the sync error after a while: could_not_create_sync_account.
Maybe there are some suitable options within AppCloner preventing this error?
However, clearing cache/data makes the app starting again.
So this is the best solution we have right now, unless someone provides new modded apk's...
Anyone have a solution for: could_not_create_sync_account????. whenever I clear data downloaded videos disappear

That is exactly the problem we are currently discussing here.
So no, no solution yet!
At least until someday updated apk files are being distributed, as teasered in post #10...
Hey guys! I had the same issue with the prime video black screen and I was looking for a solution. Apparently I found the fix, just look and install the version 3.0.258.30941 or any version before december 2019( I tested it and it's working fine). Obviously never update the app

Hi All,
I found the solution. Just go ahead and use an old apk from say Jan 2019.
I used teh following site to get the old apk and it's working for me.

Tried, it doesn't work on modern phone (Android 11, MIUI 12) but it does work on an old phone (Android 6, MIUI 10). What could be the reason for this?
Hi all,
I've been using Wallet app (by budgetbakers) on P40 pro for a few months already. I originally downloaded the app from the Huawei store but accidentally updated to the "latest" version through Aptoide store (pic attached). Since the update app crashes immediately on start and seems like it's not compatible with the phone. From the app info it says it`s certain version 4121 for Samsung (pic attached) even though latest version of the app is 83.111.
It wont allow me to downgrade the app manually either, gives me error message that I`ve been using newer version( pic attached)... Is there any workaround that will help me save and backup my inputs? Or my only hope is that a next version will overwrite this bs and allow me to open the app.
I really need dis dam data...
