[APP][NO ROOT] HALauncher for Fire TV 1, 2, 3 & Cube - Fire TV Android Development

I hereby discontinue support for my Fire TV Guides and Apps. I've been a big fan of Fire TV devices for the last 2-3 years, but Amazon has now with each firmware further limited the possibilities of a configurable Android environment and even destroyed standard Android commands. This goes too far for me now.
I can recommend the following devices to anyone who wants to have a reasonable and much better Android TV experience, which I now use myself and am enthusiastic about:
Mi Box
Mi Box S
Sony Android TV (ATV3 platform, eg. XF7, XF8, XF9 or higher)

@rainman74 hello, now is raining outside ) can you tell me what app you have used to decomplile the application and recompile ? i have seen you have made modification only to AndroidManifest, you have inserted an intent filter.
<intent-filter>
<action
android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category
android:name="android.intent.category.HOME" />
<category
android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
i have try many times to modified the android manifest decompile and recompile the apk with apk multi tool and fail to install the apk after recompile. with android studio i was only able to read

Thank you @xhostluv, by your idea I have tried the HALauncher on a Fire TV and this can be configured optimally as a Leanback-Launcher alternative.
Since the HALauncher is not recognized as a launcher app on a Fire TV, I modified the APK accordingly. This is now defined automatically as the default launcher of Fire OS (if only the HALauncher is still available and the Amazon Launcher has been deactivated or uninstalled).
If there are multiple launchers installed (but not the Amazon Launcher), the Fire OS launcher selection dialog will appear, for choosing which one you want! Alternatively, you can also choose the HALauncher via Launcher Hijack.

Great work! Thank you!

Thank you for all your work!

Hi guys!
- brand new stick
- FireStarter, Kodi 17.6 and Build installed
Qs:
How am I able to ...
a) ... replace AMAZON-launcher by HALauncher?
a) ... get Kodi out of FireStarter to TV-sticks mainpage (to avoid the step to start FireStarter first)
b) ... get Kodi-Build-logo (build: NoLimits) to TV-sticks mainpage (to avoid the step through FireStarter/Kodi)
c) ... get Kodi-Build (build: NoLinits) autoload while powering up TV-Stick
d) ... get that Homebutton-thing working again (2x Build and 1x regular Stick-Menü [or vise versa])
Thx

Look around, your questions are all explained in this forum

I have already red nearly everything and tried a lot but with no success...
Maybe you/someone might be able to give me a short help (links/tuts).

What Fire TV do you have and which Firmware? With or without root?
Please post a few screenshots, which show what your problems are...

- FireTV-Stick (2nd; Alexa voice)
- latest Firmware
- no root
- latest FireStarter
- Kodi 17.6
- latest NoLimits-Build
Problem:
a) to get into NoLimits-build I do have to start FireStarter - Kodi - Build
--- Would like to have NoLimits-shortcut directly on Stick-mainpage within Apps
b) the homebutton-issue
2x home = NoLimits-build will show up
1x home = regular AMAZON-mainpage will show up

Since you have the latest firmware 5.2.6.2 without root, many settings and hacks won't work anymore. You don't have to try around much anymore, it's pointless

Hi! Bad luck!
Any chance to root device now and get some stuff running/working WITHOUT deleting data? Would that work or what I do have to do?

No, I can recommend the purchase of a Fire TV stick or box on eBay (worldwide) that has blocked updates and an older firmware, e.g. 5.2.6.0 or better lower! So you can also replace the Amazon TV Launcher, etc.
Otherwise I can recommend these two devices:
HIMEDIA Q30
HIMEDIA Q5 PRO

Almost became my FireTV3 replacement launcher but (no fault of the app) there is no shortcut for Prime Video content.
Great work with this though. Will be using it on my FT2

I thought that Launcher Hijack didn't work on AFTV3 which prevented any launcher from becoming a true replacement. Even though AppStarter can be used to launch on boot, the Home button invariably takes one back to the default home screen.
Is any workaround present?

Yes and no. No as in not in the traditional sense.
I have my Harmony Hub (remote) macro'd to position and enter the launcher

Does anyone know if Tasker or Llama still work on Fire TV 3? This would also allow you to redirect the home button to another launcher by event.

I will test when I get home on Tuesday.

Haven't tried it yet but does Fire OS provide the accessibility settings needed by Tasker to intercept button presses?
Edit: To clarify, Fire OS doesn't have the standard Android accessibility services menu, so can Tasker operate and intercept inputs without it?

It's been a long time, but I think you could catch and rededicate the home button on a Fire TV box and stick 1 & 2 with Llama. Maybe someone can test it.

[ROM] [Miui] Gingerbread 2.4.6 (post 1)***ALPHA V4 MIUI 2.3.9 (post 2)

Well gang, here it is....Miui 2.4.6 for the Nook Color. First of all this update would not be possible without andmer's original port, and the help of Miui US (specifically lithium76 also known as 0xD34D, scott951, and gatormark08 also known as Mark Hoj). This update is based on the latest Cyanogen 2.3.7 Gingerbread base. Market has been fixed and will auto-update to version 3.4.4. Also included in this update is a modified launcher with customizable grid size (courtesy of lithium76. The modified launcher can be found as a standalone apk here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1460776. Please be sure to hit lithium76's thanks button.
Current Bugs:
USB mounting appears to not be working in this weeks build.
You can mount usb storage from recovery still
1X2 & 4X2 digital clock widgets causing force close of modified launcher

Adjust Widget Alignment Here:
1. Go to settings>personal>launcher and set the row spacing to 5.
2. Download the local.prop.zip (attached below)
3. Extract the local.prop file from the zip, then using any file explorer with root access (Root Explorer, E-Strongs, etc.) copy and paste the local.prop file into /data.
4. Reboot
What this does: Changes the lcd density locally (on device only). It will not change the lcd density as read by the market. By default I have the density set to 200, because that's how I like it. You may change that number to whatever you like (default for Nook Color is 160, Miui rom defaults at 240) using the text editor feature in your root file explorer. A reboot will be required for any changes you make to that number to take effect.
ENJOY

The connection always has been and probably always will be buggy, because we don't have a proper bluetooth antenna. The device was never intended to be used as a tablet after all. I've actually not tested it myself. I was just relaying what has been reported to me (that it didn't work), and is entirely missing from the settings menu (which I did notice). Nice to hear that it actually does work pair & connect though. I will look into getting the bluetooth settings incorporated back into the settings menu.
I would love to run this but apparently my nook color won't boot into anything later than the last miui update before this one. Cm9 no go. Nothing. Boo... oh well thanks for putting in work. I'll see if I can't get it to boot sometime.

HockeyFamily737 - is there any possibility to make option to use status bar at the bottom?
I think there would be a wery big interest in this option for tablets such as Nook Color.
The only thing is killing me in MIUI is the virtual buttons of button savior i use.
If there would be an option to put status bar at the bottom the using of virtual buttons would be a lot better.
I think at lest it would be great!

Believe me when I tell you. I would love to have the status bar at the bottom and built in virtual buttons. Is it possible....yes, anything is possible. Will the Gingerbread rom see it....probably not, but we are hoping to eventually be able to incorporate it into v4.

It's not a perfect solution but I find zmooth to be very useful when running miui. I use the free version and the ability to swype the panel for left, home, and menu means I have to use button savior very little.

Looks amazing, I've been wanting something like this for a long time. I don't think I dare install it, though, until there's some kind of UI for viewing and clearing App<->IME associations that have been stored--I occasionally switch keyboards to try something out and would want to be able to put everything back to normal quickly. This is separate from the ability to manually associate apps with certain IMEs, which would be even cooler but would also be more work. Thanks again for a great start!
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk
I've only been testing it with two IMEs but so far there haven't occurred any problems :thumbup:
An UI would be a nice feature (see post above) and if possible a blacklist to only use a definable 'default' IME.
As far as I have noticed every app is linked to an IME (or the other way around) even if there is no need to type in text anywhere in the app (e. g. Launcher, games, etc). I assume this to 'pollute' the link-list
But for me an UI is not that important

I don't feel this is necessary, since you will always see the Systems Chooser dialog.
To reset, you need to flush the data and reboot.

The default IME (= what you set in SystemSettings/Input) will be used if an app is not in the list.
Pollution should not occur since the module only stores the data IF you modified the IME, so if there is no IME for an app, you wont change anything. No change => no save.
Is it possible to make something like this, but for switch language of one keyboard (for example english, russian, emoji on xperia keyboard).
I mean for example when you run Viber keyboard start with english layout, when you run SMS app - with russian layout...

Yes this should be possible, by storing and setting the Subtype. (mCurrentSubtype in InputMethodManagerService and setInputMethodAndSubtype in InputMethodManager).
Feel free to create a fork and implement it.
Looks tremendously useful for anyone with multiple keyboard likes. Language setting idea also good but may be different for each KB so a mess to implement.
Will give it a try!

Crash when pressing home in terminal emulator
thanks so much for this module.
I do have one common problem however, persists across Cyanogen mod 11 (11 M10 d2lte, 11 M12 jflte) on my SG3 and SG4 and on CM 10.2.1-grouper on my Nexus 7.
To reproduce:
(Default keyboard was set to Android AOSP Keyboard)
Launch Terminal Emulator, choose Hackers Keyboard via AOSP keyboard, press home button, OS locks up and reboots or has to be rebooted.
I tried version 1.0 and 1.1 with the same issue. I don't think it actually matters if AOSP keyboard is set as default first or not.
If I exit terminal emulator via any other means say backing out everything works fine. However I often need to switch apps via home so i can keep terminal emulator open.
Please fix this if you can, let me know if you need any other info.
thanks!
Thanks for this app, but somehow this does not work on Marshmallow...
Running a Nexus 6 with CM 13.
On my android 4.3 tablet this works great.
Edit: sorry, didn't read the posts above this one...
Can you please add MM support, thanks
@eunrox
Hey Eunrox and everyone, got a question....
When I go back to home screen it opens the keyboard on Sense homescreen. I have to click "back" to close keyboard. So things happen like, when a call comes in I have to clear the keyboard before i can answer.
So is there any way to disable IME from opening keyboard on Sense home screen / phone app ?
Otherwise the module is great, exxxxactly what I needed and im happy I stumbled across it. Thank you very much for your work and sharing it. It really helps because of the particular apps and browsers I have to use. Thank yoy so much.

Pokemon GO Controls requires
• Root access
• Xposed framework
Instructions
• Download and activate in Xposed installer.
• Reboot the device to complete activation.
• If you are on Android 6 or above, please grant Draw over other apps permissions.
• Press and hold on the Map to set your initial location.
• Press the play button to display the controls, you can drag it around screen by holding on the central blue button.
• Use the options in notification to hide/stop the controls service.
Updates:
Module Updated to V2.1
Download : http://dl-xda.xposed.info/modules/com.axndx.prithvee.pokemongocontrols_v8_03064b_0.apk
Changes:
• Stopping the service no longer requires a reboot. Just press the stop button in the notification and clear Pokemon GO from recents.
• The module now sends proper altitude values.
Tested and working on Pokemon GO v0.37 with Magisk.
V2.0
Minor update V2.0.1 (Added auto walk distance option) :
Updated again at 9 AM GMT, if you downloaded previously, please update again.
Download : http://dl-xda.xposed.info/modules/com.axndx.prithvee.pokemongocontrols_v7_4a08f3.apk
Note: Uninstall previous version app before upgrading to this version.
This update mainly focuses on fixing performance issues in the previous versions, new features will be added in the next update. Please give feedback after trying this version.
Changes:
• Changed the complete working mechanism of the module, now it does not use mock locations and only changes the location inside Pokémon GO. This significantly decreases the memory usage and battery consumption. The only drawback is that there will be a slight delay between the button press and the player movement in game, I'm working on removing this delay. Your actual GPS location is not at all affected now and you can use other apps without any changes.
• Minor UI changes.
V1.4
Download here: http://dl-xda.xposed.info/modules/com.axndx.prithvee.pokemongocontrols_v5_2bb38c.apk
Changes:
• Reduced auto walk speed, now you can hatch eggs.
• Added hide/show controls option in notification.
• Minor UI changes.
V1.3
Download here: http://dl-xda.xposed.info/modules/com.axndx.prithvee.pokemongocontrols_v4_1d222f.apk
Changes:
• Added a search option for map.
• Added auto walk feature, now long press on a button to walk continuously in that direction.
V1.2
Module Updated to V1.2
Download here: http://dl-xda.xposed.info/modules/com.axndx.prithvee.pokemongocontrols_v3_1cc371.apk

• Added a brand new controller with diagonal navigation support.
• Added ability to set the distance covered on each step.
Tips: Now hold the center blue button to drag around the controls, tap the notification to stop the service.

If you have rubber banding problem, download Disable Service app from play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...disableservice
Open the app and go to System tab
1. Search for Fused Location and disable it.
2. Search for Google Play Services and inside it disable Fused Location Service.

---solved---
Thanks for the mod. Its not working for me. Its allways jumping between the real position and the position i want. Gps is "Gps only". With other mock apps , it was the same. For people it workd, but not for me. I think it is because of my rom. I am using the paranoid rom 6.0.1. Nexus 5x
The same for nexus 5X with latest CM ROM. The same problem is actual for other fake GPS apps and pokemon go. Google maps works fine.
Yes thank you very much for this module, but it does keep rubber banding me back to location, and when it does seem to work i cant catch anything, they run away and the pokestops won't work as well.
Great module, but I've noticed that if the module is installed, if I were to enable mock location, it unchecks itself and doesn't stay checked when I exit the development options menu.

Had those problem before with other gps haccs. It's not a soft ban so don't worry. What's going on is that the fake gps is just getting overridden by the real one. The best way to test to make sure a gps mod will work is open up googled maps and see if it works there. I'm actually doing about 20 accounts at the same time of this game.

Hey guys jus thought I'd share how I made it work, first I'm on a nexus 5x pure nexus rom with Xposed of course. Rubberbanding locations solved, go to play store get app called "disable service" disable system files fused locations and inside Google play services same file again fused locations, reboot and you should be not spawning back and forth, check in Google maps to confirm before starting Pokemongo
yes, this was a nexus 5x problem. not the problem of the modul here.
Please help me, I can't tick "allow mock locations"
same here when active mock location they deactivated it automatically
I am not able to reproduce the errors mentioned here, and that is why I can't test the solutions I am creating. Please private message me if anyone is interested in testing the fixes before I upload a new version.
Thank you.
Edit:
1. Please test this and let me know if it solves the Allow Mock Location problem: http://bit.ly/pokecontrolv1_1test
2. If you have rubber banding problem, download Disable Service app from play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cn.wq.disableservice
Open the app and go to System tab, search for Fused Location and disable it.

Hi OP! Thanks for this, it works brilliantly.
I am willing to assist with Testing, you can contact me on Tapatalk or PM on here...
A couple of suggestions right off the bat:
Could we get Diagonal Movements?
Possibility of adjusting the speed or distance of each click?
Temporarily hiding the Controls (Without switching the Service Off)
The test fix for the 'Allow Mock Location' has not worked. At least, not for me. Same issue as before mentioned without any change. Thanks for the updates!
Works fine in my mate 8 without any problems

IG Mods?

Hello folks. I've been a veteran iOS user and have finally plunged into the world of Android with a Google Pixel 3.
So far I'm loving every bit of it.
However, I used to love the iOS mod of Instagram (https://getrocketapp.io and IG++) which you could install without Jailbreak.
Now I've been looking far and wide for something similar and polished for Android, but there aren't any apps that have the full suit of the tweaks that came with the iOS mod versions.
I've seen a few (GBInsta / InstaUltra etc.) - but none of them seem to have everything that IG++ for iOS contains.
The specific features I'm looking for are:
Hide sponsored posts
Hide sponsored stories
Manually mark store as seen (hide notification of story seen)
Hide suggestions
These are availability both the iOS mods which is why I'm surprised that there's no Android mod similar.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks
bump, I'm curious about this as well.
I wanna knwo that also!
Hi, despite the post is old, I am wondering if this could help...

Instagram Mod Apk
If you're worried about backdoors in modded software, here are two choices:
Instagram Lite: Official app sans ads and most of the Instagram camera features.
Barinsta (F-Droid): Instagram with download features and non-obtrustive discover page. Open-source.

Well I haven't revisited IG lite for a while, so it's possible that the ads are back in later updates.
And for the time being, Barinsta is hit by a Cease and Desist letter, which prohibits development of the app.
I now recommend Instander. Isn't open source but blocks all ads most of the time. It also offers robust options in the instander settings page, and has the ability to hide "seen" status from stories, videos, livestreams and DMS.

I found the telegram channel with version 14.1
normal and clone looks having the same size, which one should I pick?
I read that is not open source, does it mean that I have to pay for using it?
Thanks again

The normal version has the same package name as the original Instagram, so installing it will replace the original.
The clone version can coexist with the original app.
You don't have to pay for it, non-open source just means that we can't build it ourselves.
However, donations to the developer is the best way to help keep the development going.

I installed the normal version from their telegram channel (not the clone).
I rebooted and wiped cache of IG and the other thing
I open the app and the ads are still there...
what did I miss please?
I was not sure if installed properly, so I tried again from file manager and it says impossible to install on my device (the PocoF1 with Pixel Experience +) ...
Please help me, the developer website is super weird and I cannot find the tutorial
@phaleg Try the clone version maybe? I installed the clone version and so far it only has ads in the "Older Posts" section.
BTW, on my phone, 14.1 only shows a black screen on startup. My solution is to install 12.1, log in then update to 14.1.
The website is indeed broken so using the telegram group would be more straightforward
For the ads though, most of the time there won't be ads, but occasionally ads will appear. Blame IG for this.
By the way if you don't need the reply function (and the bells and whistle in DM), then mods from @neekless still works to this day:

I recommend versions under 144, has no ads and can view older posts right under new posts (the old way).

Thanks for the tips!
This is how I solved, installing the close worked and also if you first uninstall the normal instagram and then you put Instander works.
Now I have both and will probably remove one.
I see no ads and that's great, I try asking, is there option to remove the annoying reels as well?

From your profile -> hamburger menu on the top right -> "Instander Settings" -> Misc
There is a switch to turn off IG reels.
After switching it off, close the app (by clearing it from recents) then re-open. Changes should take effect.
The switch may not work at times, so if the switch is already off, turn it on, restart the app, turn it off, then restart again.

Mmm, I tried couple times the switch for the Reels, will try again tomorrow...
Just for me to understand, reels switch off, means that the app will hide those reels from stream / feed and remove the button in the middle, correct?
Maybe is needed to clear cache of the app or storage something?

I did this too, whole process, from off to on (remove from recent + force close), then again from on to off (remove from recent + force close)... anyway, it is still cool to remove ads, maybe in future I will be more fortunate for this XD

Do you have a similar app for annoying / promotional things on Facebook? For now, I am using the lite version that misses the dating feature, but has the messages integrated in the same app

Frost is an open source wrapper for Facebook that supports notifications and hiding promotional content.
Facebook LC is a mod made by @evilwombat to an older version of Facebook. Though not updated, it still works to this day. On the same thread there is also Messenger LC, which hides ads from the messenger app.
However I'm not sure if these apps have the dating feature, as I've never used it before.

Q&A
Q: Can I use EdXposed instead?
A: No, it's not working on Switch. Bootloop happens. Might be fixed in future EdXposed version.
Q: I installed PS4 Remote Play Enabler and rebooted, but Play Store does not show me PS4 Remote Play.
A: Clear Play Store's data in the settings app.
Q: There are empty bars on the right side and the bottom of the screen. How can I fix it?
A: You should disable navigation bar. Simply done by adding qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 in /system/build.prop or you can use this.
Install third-party gesture app like Full Screen Gestures or Gesture Control before disabling navigation bar!!
Q: I want to use v2.5.0 or above.
A: Update Remote Play Assistant to latest version from Xposed repo.
Q: I have issue with l2 & r2.
A: Update Remote Play Assistant to latest version and do not long press but click them while remapping.

Wow wait.. so this should technically also work on nvidia shield tv using any other controller?... without those annoying on screen buttons?
I've been searching for quite some time for such a solution and you just pull up some korean xposed module and say this works? Awesome!
I have v2.6.0 working except I cannot register any controller.
In Magisk I installed the Sony framework v1 module. This also adds some Dualshock 3/4 system app.
Then installed ps4 remote play v2.6.0. Without launching the app, in Magisk hide and I hide both the ps4 remote play app and the Dualshock.. app to make it work.
What I want to ask: Are you totally sure, this "korean" xposed module does not work without PS4 Remote Play Enabler module and ps4 remote play app v2.0.0?
Or did you assume, with v2.6.0 you can't even get the app working and streaming? Cause that is possible.

The module does not work with v2.6.0. You can get the ps4 remote app itself working but this module does not work on that version.
Just downgrade to v2.0.0 and try it, then.

Thx, exactly what I wanted to know.:good: And thx for linking to this xposed module!
Confirmed working.
Looks like L2 and R2 (ZL and ZR) only work if you press them for a second or so, otherwise it registers them as axis controls. I guess this is to be expected due to how the buttons work on JoyCons vs. DS4 or am I missing something in the Assistant App?

Yeah this is some funky quirk between how the zl/zr buttons are reported to android (each is a button, and they're also opposite ends of two different axes), and how the app is interpreting whatever weird info it gets from that. I managed to tweak the app's saved configuration file manually while the app wasn't running, to register each button as the positive end of its own axis, rather than being on the same axis, and now the buttons behave properly in the app's gamepad tester. I haven't tried it in Remote Play proper yet, need to get things set up with my ps4. But here's the config file, unzip and put it into Internal Storage/Android/data/com.rAs.android.rpgamepad/files/ - that folder should already exist if you've saved a configuration from the app. Let me know if it works for you.
If you want to edit your own configuration instead (it's just a text file), these are the two lines I changed:
Code:
analog_l2=AXIS_BRAKE|23
and
Code:
analog_r2=AXIS_GAS|22
..I guess you might have button_l2 and button_r2 instead which you'll need to replace.
L2 acts like it's being pressed when it's not & it acts like it's not being pressed when it is pressed. Works fine with an old Ipega controller that I have.

Not actually dead link but I link to the original magisk xposed thread in OP now.
And don't quote the whole OP.
Remote Play Assistant got an update today, available from the same link in the OP.
I don't know if it's that or sj33's fix-joycon-triggers.zip (which set the flat values to 2048 instead of 4096), but this time on a fresh install of android, zl/zr just map properly to l2/r2 with no messing around.
This is amazing! Do you know if the developer is trying to get the newer versions to work? Or will this stop working once Sony disables older versions?

Just use the touch screen for the ps button & share. Use start & select for touchpad & options.
That makes sense actually, I ended up making PS the select and start button at the same time but might make sense to do it the touchscreen way
Well, it seems with the latest version of Magisk Manager, I can't download and install the Xposed Framework, when the app is looking for copies, it crashes. Can someone share his "Xposed_Framework_v90-beta3.zip" please? Thank you.
Protip: if you edit the usual .kl keymap files and replace HOME with BUTTON_MODE, you can map the home button to something (I've now got it mapped to PS, + mapped to Option, and - mapped to touchpad button (for tomb raider). I can probably live without the share button being mapped in most circumstances.

Can we map the screenshot button? If so then the joycons have enough buttons to map all dualshock 4 buttons to.

I haven't managed to so far, it seems like android can't detect it yet. I can generally live without a share button tho.
would this work on a jailbroken ps4?
