Thanks! I was going to try Google Maps but didn't expect it to work. Most apps which require data from the internet do not work, since there is no way for them to get the data (Android Wear does not currently provide a direct connection to the internet over bluetooth). But I was surprised to see that Google Maps does in fact work! Thank you

It works also as a gps.
Open google maps on the smartwatch.
Open google Maps from the iphone (not ios maps) and select your destination.
You'll get instruction on the watch

I have figured it out. You can update by manually installing the newest version of android wear app from playstore to your watch.
First, get an apk file of androidwear(android version).
change the file name into .zip, and extract it.
Inside a folder named "raw" inside "res", you can find an apk file.
install it to your watch with adb commands.
(if it fails to install, use the "adb install -r xxx.apk" command)
after this, you can update the android wear app on your watch
Thanks for the tutorial!
This app also works on moto 360?
Huawei / Iphone 5s.
Installation worked, I do now have the Maps icon/app on the watch.
It does give the location where I'am and features a map around me.
But the update of the gps signal is slow (probably caused by the frequency of the android wear app/google maps refreshes it) and I can't use places nearby (nothing is nearby) and navigation.
Navigation started on the phone is not transferred to the watch.
Any possibilities in a more frequent gps signal/update?

This APK is not wear ready.
I guess the TS stripped a full APK to a wearable one, right?
Can this be done (again) with a more recent full APK?

First question: how?
And second, does it help wear users by e.g. faster gps responses?
I think it doesn't work any more... I have installed but iPhone 6 iOS 9.0.2 Google Maps (up to date) is not responsive to the watch. Or watch is not receiving packages from iPhone. Not sure... But it hangs at "Waiting for location". Nothing else.
Which apk did you use?

@william_jc, I have used both. First tried Mahdy's it was just working like a standalone app. No iOS completion.
Then stripped the latest version for wearable. That was same so far.
No navigation, no nearby, nothing. Just a dry map. I didn't figure out or found any solution yet to it.
Edit:
I'd like to answer your question also.
When you download a wearable supported apk (through apkpure.com ie.) extract it to a folder (7zip is doing it quickly). Apk is a sort of ZIP archive. You can either change the file extension to .zip file or directly right click and extract with 7zip etc.
Anyhow, go to /raw/res/ directory after extraction. You will find another *.apk file there. That is for wearable.
You can install it right away to your wearable. Though adb :
adb install XXXXX.APK
That much easy.

Ok, same here. At least after the 1.4 update and using the first google maps.
That means: standalone map, no places nearby no navigation. Fair enough for me if the gps update time was shorter. Now it seems to update ones every 15 minutes or so. Should be every 10 seconds
I do understand the stripping now, although it seems a less smaller apk (the new one).
does this work on all adndroid wear?

OK... So it would seem that the more technology advances, the less control users have on their devices... GRRRRRR!
But before we engage in arguments on the politics of actively hiding the file system to computer users and restricting access to their devices... Does anyone know WHERE Google stores its Offline Speech Recognition Language Files?
I accidentally discovered that Offline Speech Recognition seems to have been bundled with Google Search somehow because if Google Search is disabled, so is Speech Recognition and looking at Google Search in Application Manager, one can notice that the data storage is proportional to the size of the downloaded language files, but so far have been unable to locate where on the device these files are stored, so that they don't need to be downloaded again.
Any ideas?

YESSS! Confirmed on my Samsung Galxy Note 2
THANK YOU SHERLOCK!!!
For those using OFFLINE voice to text to SAVE BANDWIDTH, having to DOWNLOAD THE FILES every time something Google crashes in order to save you from DOWNLOADING in real time was a bit absurd, don't you think?
This should resolve the issue, unless of course reinstalling the files manually is not possible. I'll make some tests and get back with results.

Firstly, just in case you were trying to do this on an older OS, it's supposed to work only starting with Jelly Bean (4.1.1), but I presume you wouldn't have an option to download if you were on an old OS...
Otherwise your Google Search installation may be corrupted and you need to delete the data and cache and reboot (note to others: if you need to reinitialize Google Search for any reason and already downloaded language files, COPY THEM ONTO YOUR SDCARD FIRST if you don't want to be downloading them again ).
If that doesn't work, update Google Search offline, there are apks available, I'll post one up tomorrow if you have trouble finding one.
If worse comes to worst, you may have to delete your google account and re-register it after a reboot. Usually that's as far as you need to go.
If you still need language packs after all this, let me know and I'll download them for you as I'll be WiFi all day tomorrow.
Good luck!

I downloaded all the needed file (both .apk and language files)
but I started creating the /app_g3_models/ folder and then inlating the IT-it language pack you provided
Than I checked if the language file was listed as installed in the offline voice recognition menu, but yet it wasn't
BUT when I clicked on download....it started downloading it back, and then it appeared in the installed language for offline use
of course my second test was....can I download any other language now or for the time being I'll always need to have it manuallly copied on the mobile and THEN I'll be able to "download" it.........
quess what? I was able to download Englis (UK) and German
so definitilelly the issue seems to be solved
And I did not even had to use the .apk files

Bcoz I already hav Google search installed rite now..so should I uninstall that? Or how should I proceed..
Edit I don't speak Italian so did not download that other file..
I don't speak German either, but I downloaded the laguage file to test the "download" function was working within the Offline Voice features

Helped a lot......
Worked?
I have a rooted Huawei Y300 with stock ROM, JB 4.1.1. The option to download the offline recognition files isn't there, but I'm quite sure that back when I bought the phone early April, the option was still there. I couldn't find anything definitive, but it seems that Google has disabled the offline recognition for devices it deems "too slow/weak" to use that functionality. Or something.
In any case, the app_g3_models folder exists on my phone, but it's empty. If I set the language to English (US), the offline recognition works, if I set it to English (UK) or German or whatever, I get a speech server error if I'm offline (I use utter!). So I downloaded the Italian files linked earlier in this thread and copied them to the app_g3_models folder. Then I set the Voice Search language to Italian, tried utter! and it worked while offline. The only "problem" being that it understands the speech as English, not Italian... I don't actually speak Italian but I set utter! to display the results it gets back from the Google speech recognition service, and those results are in English. And if I ask it "What time is it?", it understands me correctly. I assume the problem is that the speech recognition sees the Italian offline files, but for whatever reason it can't use them and defaults to the working English (US) files (where are THOSE, anyway?). If I set the Voice Search language to anything but Italian or English (US), I get the speech server error again.
So here's my request - could someone please download the English (US), English (UK), German and Russian offline files on his phone and upload them somewhere for me to try?
Also if you know how I can get the download option to show on my phone, that would be even better .
A big +1 to that. I downloaded the Italian files myself and got my phone sounding like Mussolini. Lol..Still if somebody could upload the English US file it'd be great. I'm gonna keep looking for them. If I find them I'll post a link for y'all here.
Sorry guys, I'm stupid I suspect.
I've downloaded the files to app_g3_models.
When I select Voice Search, I see:
Language
Default - English (UK)
Speech output
Only when informative
Block offensive words
Hide recognised offensive voice results
Bluetooth headset
Records audio through Bluetooth headset if available.
there is nothing else. So what do I need to do next, to get offline voice recognition working?

I had this same issue with another app that uses Google offline recognition files. (Utter) Spent days trying to figure it out. What did the trick was installing svox voice engine, and a trial of a voice pack (it seemed that it wouldn't work without the voice package) once I set that up the offline stuff started working.
Hope it helps ya
just downloaded here maps but for some reason it can't find any maps and I just get a white background. It does know my location.
Anyone knows what the reason for this is ?
Thank you
No idea for the reason, but same symptom. Have a rooted HTC One M8 with 5.0.1.
By using ProxyDroid and my own proxy I could see, HERE tries to connect to 127.0.0.1:443, which is definitely wrong. Would appreciate any idea.
I'm on a rooted Note 4, here maps used to work fine, now all I get is a white background, I have no idea why it's no longer working but its doing my head in, hope someone can shed some light on this as I loved this map app
in logcat can find this error. If this file stores the info, where to download map information, then it will not work without
E/MapLoaderService( 2782): java.io.FileNotFoundException: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.here.app.maps/files/.here-maps/diskcache-v4/mapcatalog.json: open failed: ENOENT (No such file or directory)
Would be nice, if someone with working HERE Maps could upload their mapcatalog.json
Working fine here. Galaxy S5 rooted
Sent from my SM-G900F using XDA Free mobile app
Congrats. In the android sdk emulator using lollipop is working, too. Now I have copied over the mapcontent.json from the emulator and now once a while get the list of maps to download. Pressing download does not do anything, besides another error message in logcat. Very odd.....
I could now download the maps in the emulator and copy them over to the SD-card and use HERE in offline mode. Just this is very inconvenient.
Have now found a solution: Using the sdk emulator I have downloaded the map from Germany, then copied it on the sdcard of the phone. After switching HERE to offline mode and to use ext_sd, the map could be seen. Then I tried navigation to berlin and HERE wanted to go online to calculate the route. So I have agreed, and during route presentation I have seen even area outside of Germany. So curiously I have tried to download the map from Singapore - successfully
Without trying to be a pain I still can't find any solution to this, all I get is a white screen when I should be seeing a map, I've tried different versions of the app, cleared cache/data re-downloaded maps for offline, it doesn't matter what I do the maps wont show.
Please if anyone can add any further input or other things to try I'd be grateful

Same here (CM 11.2). Interestingly, switching to mobile data leads to download activity. Files are downloaded to the same dir as you mentioned (e.g. MAP.IDX = 5.6 MB).

The Google app "My Tracks" was deprecated some months ago, which is a shame since it was very popular due to it's no-nonsense approach.
I had a look at the last version before Google deprecated it, it's available for download here.
Really the only two things that don't seem to work still are the maps (it just displays an empty background) and Google Drive syncing. I suppose Google canceled the API keys for those, and that's why they're not working.
So I used APKTool to unpack it, and changed the API key for the maps in AndroidManifest.xml to one that I had registered myself. I then used APKTool to put it back together, signed it with jarsigner and installed it on my phone. It didn't work (it's still not displaying the map).
So now I'm hoping someone smarter than me might be able to get it to work Not sure why it's not working (I used the package name of the app, com.google.android.maps.mytracks as the package name when I registered for the API key, if that matters).
Hi,
Which version of Android do you use ? 6.0.1 ?
I used to be on Android 4.4.2, and "My Tracks" used to work perfectly.
I changed phone, and I now have Android 6.0.1, and "My Tracks" displays grey empty area, instead of the map.
I suppose that Google has changer many things on Andoird 6.0.1, which blocks the map from being used by "My Traks".
I have noticed that the Android/Data/ directory does not contain any "com.google.android.maps.mytracks" folder, as it used to.
I made a full back-up from MyBackUp Pro, and I have noticed that when I restore My Tracks "APK and DATA", the map displays totally fine on My Tracks, when I launch a track recording !!!
But the GPS does not work well at all.
We could discuss together or findings, to try to see what can be done to correct this on Android 6.0.1 ?
Hi BadCash,
I have read many pages, and did not find a good solution yet, ans no other app can beat or even be as good as My Tracks.
I confirm that when I install My Tracks with MyBackUp Pro, on my rooted phone G900F on Android 6.0.1 stock rooted, "apk+data", the map appears on My Tracks, but the GPS is crazy...
and when I install apk only, no map appears, but thr GPS works veray well.... (writes the route on the grey screen)....
So is there a chance that the solution would be in the DATA files I have back-up, and juste on file to modify... ?
Or is it related to Android 6.0.1 permissions ?
Or is it related to Google services ? or Play Store, or Google apps ?
---------- Post added at 11:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:45 AM ----------
I found the apk sources for "My Tracks" :
https://github.com/Plonk42/mytracks
Who could find and correct it to make it work on Android 6.0.1 please ?
Many users would donate a reward on PayPal to the genious person who would correct it !!!
I am running a rooted Note 4 on Android 5.1.1 and the map in My Tracks no longer shows up for me either. My tracks still worked on my LG G4 with 6.0.1. I think My Tracks is still tracking but doesn't show my actual track on the map.
watching this thread. Google Fit sucks.

Great job. I hope you post a link to the download for people who need it.
My previous phone was a Note 4 where it was working fine (Android 5.1). I did a Google backup on it, and then when I set up my Pixel 2 XL, I restored from the Note 4 backup and it is working fine on my Pixel 2 XL.
I hope too! I still haven't found a good alternative to My Track

Unfortunately, I can't really give you my version as it requires API keys which are tied to my personal account.
1. Go to Google Cloud Dashboard: https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/dashboard
2. Create a new project. You can call it MyTracks Revived.
3. Click "Enable APIs" -> Maps SDK for Android - make sure it's activated.
4. Go to Credentials: https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials
5. Create credentials. You'll receive an API key.
Once you the maps API key, you can follow the instructions to compile it here: https://github.com/Plonk42/mytracks

I downloaded, created a new set of API keys, and used Android Studio to run it on my phone. Had to uninstall the Google version.
While the maps part now works, I cannot import from my SD card all of my old tracks! This makes the new version unusable! And unfortunately, Verizon sucks so I can't root my phone and manually do it. Anyone else find a way to allow import? It sees there are two tracks to import, but just gives a generic error. Nothing in the debug log or logcat...very frustrating.
It would be nice to have the newest Google version work. Why does decompiling the APK with APKTool, replacing the API keys in AndroidManifest, and recompiling/signing not work? I took a look at the differences between the open source AndroidManifest and the Google 2.0.11 one, but didn't see anything important. Any thoughts?
Thanks!

I went and recompiled the said source code with a new Google Maps API key, and it's working like a charm on Android 8.0. :good:

I have a key but dont remember how to change it

I downloaded, created a new set of API keys, and used Android Studio to run it on my phone. Had to uninstall the Google version.
While the maps part now works, I cannot import from my SD card all of my old tracks! This makes the new version unusable! And unfortunately, Verizon sucks so I can't root my phone and manually do it. Anyone else find a way to allow import? It sees there are two tracks to import, but just gives a generic error. Nothing in the debug log or logcat...very frustrating.
It would be nice to have the newest Google version work. Why does decompiling the APK with APKTool, replacing the API keys in AndroidManifest, and recompiling/signing not work? I took a look at the differences between the open source AndroidManifest and the Google 2.0.11 one, but didn't see anything important. Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Hello,
Thank you all, i've been very interested by this thread about Mytracks, and i was searching for solutions about this app.
Here were my needs :
- continue to use "mytracks" on new smartphone (android 8.1) => able to see maps and record tracks with markers (photos)
- possibility to import all my tracks (>800) on my tablet (official android 5.0.2, but now using Lineage OS 15)
So, i created my personal API key with Google console and tried to apply it in AndroidManifest.xml
I tested several versions :
- 2.0.11 / 2.0.10 : display is KO, maps stays grey. No errors in logcat because my key is valid (also no metric for my key in Google Maps API console)
- 2.0.9 / 2.0.7 : display for Google Maps is OK and i can import tracks.
So that's it i keep app version 2.0.9 with modified AndroidManifest.xml
(it seems versions 2.0.10 & 2.0.11 only bring "Earth maps")
Thanks
Google will change the maps renderer. Any chance that MyTracks can be modified to work with this new renderer?
I've been testing apps for days and this is the one that worked best on my AMAZFIT PACE watch. It works quite well and with the method I present you can download maps from all over the world in the internal memory of the watch. It does not work with the clock wifi itself. It perfectly locates the location and you can access most of the options.
Sometimes you can not read the content well but we can help you from the same application on the phone. I briefly explain how I did it. More ahead I will go up explaining videos.
We will need to have a phone with Android.
First, we installed the app on the phone and in the watch (via apkinstaller). The application (apk) that I have installed is called "All-In-One Offline Maps + .ver.2.4.build.51" if you put it like that in google you will appear to download.
Then we open the app on your mobile phone:
• We go to the symbol of the map,
• Click on "save an area"
• Framing the part of the map that we want to save and the zoom that we want to obtain
• Press the save button
• This process will take a long time to download
• Once downloaded we will go to the root folder of the phone and copy the folder "OfflineMaps" and save it in our PC.
Once the folder is saved in our PC we replace it with the one in our amazfit . Now we will open the app on our amazfit and should see the downloaded area. It perfectly locates our location. To be able to know what you put in the options it is better to go browsing the app on the mobile at the same time.
Sorry i can put a link because i am a new user.
Search: "Amazfit Maps + GPS offline [NEW APK compatible]" in youtube and you can see a video demostration

I see release 2.7 available, do you recommend 2.4 because it is the only one working or should I proceed with 2.7?
Do you how to uninstall the app if I need to?

I am the only version I have tried. Under my experience with other apps in the amazfit, the older the actualization the less likely to fail. That is why I have stayed with version 2.4.
Anyway try to try it and tell us how you have gone. You can uninstall from apkinstaller
it work so far but I have a blank area at the bottom of the screen (same on the phone).
I could not remove it, do you know how to do so? you dont have it from what I have seen on youtube

Hello,
On my smartphone the saving of saved cards is on Android / data / net.psyberia.offlinemapsplus / files / cache / builtin-maps,
So if I understand I get the two files * .DAT and * .DX that I put in a folder "offlineMaps" on the PC, that I send to the watch Amazfit Pace, but how to send it in the watch? With the PC and the connected watch? But there is a specific file to put this folder map in the watch?
Thank you for your reply.
adb shell

start adb shell on your PC and send:
adb push ./<pc-path>/filename.Dat /mnt/sdcard/storage/emulated/legacy/OfflineMaps/cache/builtin-maps
adb push ./<pc-path>/filename.IDX /mnt/sdcard/storage/emulated/legacy/OfflineMaps/cache/builtin-maps
Thus you get you files at least to your watch. I enabled on the Watch the option "Use Only local storage" in order to avoid network acceess issue.
But at the moment I do not get it why the APP is not finding the local files?
The APP on the watch indicates a different path to the workspace on the mobile for offline data:
watch pach: /storage/emulated/0/OfflineMaps/cache
with adb I do not get the access rights to create the /storage/emulated/ (read only) etc. dirctories and with the mounted path I am allowed to create everything but then itis not found by the watch app:
/mnt/sdcard/storage/emulated/0/OfflineMaps/cache
Still I have no clue how to solve this directory issue?:silly:
you can kill the package on the watch with an adb shell too:
am force-stop net.psyberia.*
Beside the APP is only working in a reasonable way with the Paid version. With the free version you get a blank column in the buttom which makes navigation impossible. The App itself can only be started on the watch and only be dismissed via adb shell -> am force-stop ....
or power shut down. Since it can be very CPU consuming I would assume that the resulting power drain is not funny. Currently I think it can only ne used as a sort of emergeny app I only will use if I am completly lost and the mobile is out of power too. Therefore you should think twice before you spend time and money on this.
I am using All-In-One Offline Map+ version 2.9

I finally got it and it works great! The "simple" solution is to install a file explorer on the watch itself. I found one online and it works great (com.alphainventor.filemanager.apk). The local file explorer (on the watch) 'sees' all the directories properly. You can therefore copy and paste the files from your PC on the "SD card" part of the watch (where you can see some directories and have read/write access). Then use the watche's file explorer to move those files/dirs (the maps) to the right folder on the watch. It will then work!
As an added bonus, once you copy files into those "unseen by Windows" directories (for example one of mine was "Android" and all its subdirs) it becomes visible in Windows Explorer! So next time you update maps on the PC you should be able to copy and paste over without requiring the use of the watche's file explorer.
I hope that helps.

Ok FileManager works but you can achieve the same with adb shell too.
Still I do not understand to which path the offline map files needs to be pushed that they get loaded. According to Settings->StrorageDevice I should know the right path but it is not working.
So where to push the files?
Now I got it. Of course the offline strorage path is different for each map type and can be seen with the details of the map.
I am using OSM Hike&Bike, it states in its details for offline storage /storage/emulated/0/OfflineMaps/cache/builtin-maps an therefore I pushed it to the followng path (means "/storage" is substituted by "/mnt/shell")
adb push ./<pc-path>/OSMCYC.DAT /mnt/shell/emulated/0/OfflineMaps/cache/builtin-maps
adb push ./<pc-path>/OSMCYC.IDX /mnt/shell/emulated/0/OfflineMaps/cache/builtin-maps
Beside I have installed a task manager thus I am able to kill the app. Thus it very much easier to restart the app when needed.

Glad you got it working. I am using the free version of Psyberia maps, as it is much lighter in resources. Of course you do get a white bar at the bottom of the screen (only on free version - paid shouldn't have it) but it is still very usable so....
Well, its time of Android TV 9 for all AllWinner H6!!!
Install on your T95MAX or any box Allwinner H6 the rom of Pendoo X6 Pro
LINK https://drive.google.com/file/d/11_TqTWv2hjlHEiceNHtG87TTEod3nOTr/view
then flash it with PhoenixUSBPro PC Tool and connect the tv box to ethernet or wifi at first boot
In Display settings set the correct resolution for your TV, now must delete some files and folders with the help of titanium backup and of a root browser. This step is very important because the space on system is limited and, if you don t delete all unnecessary files, you will receive an error of no space left on device when will push in the system the files of ATV9.
With titanium backup delete the app called Google 9.94.5.21 arm
Delete also one to one all preinstalled apps from settings apps except Airplay and disable app called simply Google
Now with a root browser/explorer in data/app delete the folder called com.android.vendingXXX if exists
In system, delete with a root explorer the entire folder called fastpreinstall and all files in preinstall folder except DairScreen
delete in system/priv-app the folders called GmsCoreSetupPrebuilt and PhoneSky
delete in system/app the folders called lcx6pro and YoutubeTV2
Now, without reboot the box, open from a pc - located in the same network of the tv box - the file in this folder called cmd-here and give these commands one to one
adb connect IP ADDRESS OF YOUR TV BOX
adb root
again...adb connect IP ADDRESS OF YOUR TV BOX
adb remount
adb push app /system/
adb push etc /system/
adb push framework /system/
adb push priv-app /system/
adb push usr /system/
adb reboot
Enjoy Android 9 ATV!!!
NOTE 1 - I tried in every mode to include playstore of all the versions for android TV but always says that the device is incompatible or crash. For this reason i have insert stock google service that obviously not working in ATV but you can use Aurora Store or other markets for download all the apps that you want spoofing another device, work also apps in ATV format not only the normals.
NOTE 2 - The procedure flash the files of keylayout of T95MAX, then will work only the stock remote infrared of the T95MAX. If you have another device, use another remote controller with a dongle USB or, if you want use the stock remote, copy and substitute - with a root file browser- the folder keylayout located in /usr with that of your stock rom.
NOTE 3 - At every boot will request a prompt where you must decide what launcher use..ignore it clicking on anything of they and will start ATV 9!
NOTE 4 - If at first boot of ATV9 you receive errors of crash of system apps unnecessary as Keychain, please ignore it, you can disable it but the errors should disappear alone in few minutes and not return.
Thats all!
UPDATE - IF YOU WANT ENABLE CHROMECAST INSTALL THIS APK OF CASTRECEIVER https://drive.google.com/file/d/1RjX4mXVOVPmReMlGPHRadMopghh50_g5/view?usp=sharing

Nice! Will this work for the Android TX6S with Android 10?
The SoC is an Allwinner H616. I wonder if it makes a difference that it is Android 10.
Does Netflix, and HBO work?
The Play Store does not work, or is it possible to maintain the mobile one?
guide updated!
I had the same question. Did you try? Does it work?

No, the only version of the playstore that works is the leanback 6.0.2 with a flash of the latest tvgapps / others playservices and playstore crashes or appeare a message that playstore is not compatible with device/....but adding this leanback working playstore create a big problem. All apps not only of this playstore... but also of alternative markets - such as aurora store and aptoide tv - are viewed in mobile version. The TV apps functionality is totally broken in this mode and TV designed apps not will work anymore. I cannot re add the playstore for this reason.
Regarding Netflix and HBO....HBO should works without problem the TV version as many others apps that i have tested...Netflix works fine but the black mobile version. this is a problem of all the TV boxes that have a widevine L3 certification and lack of level 1 DRM that Netflix ATV version requires.
Regarding the compatibility of my procedure with other Soc as Allwinner H616 not have tested but not should work because the ATV9 files used are for Android 9 designed. Should instead works with other Soc with Android 9 stock rom.
Thanks for replying

Then I won't risk it on mine TX6S since it is the Allwinner H616.
I think this one also only uses the black mobile version and there won't be much to do about that, but I don't care so much as long as content is played in Full HD. However, my ROM is faulty. First, it didn't accept my Google account. I reset the box and then it accepted but HBO, Vodafone TV app and Netflix don't work.
I haven't had time to play around with it, though.
Did someone solve the Netflix issue ? I cast the Netflix from my phone and they stuck with 3 dots loading on box
Help required. Update get stuck at 62% and abort

Hello fosseperme!
Thank You for this titanic work!
Cool!!!
Everything is working good!
But there is a problem...
The "Home" button does not work on the Remote control.
On any Remote control:
- stock Remote control;
- bluetooth or radio Remote control (for example Rii mini i25a).
I tried to use different software for these purposes, which reassigns keys, for example the "Button Mapper", but other problems appear:
- the icons of the left row applications (recommendation channels) do not scale;
- when I launch applications (from the "Favorites") - appears "Menu" (as if I press a long "Ok").
Can fix it?
Thanks!
PS. Box - Tanix Tx6, 4/32.
PPS. Sorry for my English - it's not my native language.
Does anyone have the rom for this??? File can’t be found....
