crashes on new shield tv
app repo crashes on new 7,01 shield experience android oreo 8.0 when you click create shortcut
just figured out it would not install was my fault but it still wont create shortcut its not compatible with oreo
load the app and select an app to create shortcut then click on create shortcut and it crashes back to home screen
Hi there. I don't have a log for this issue. What I'm suspecting the issue is is the app uses the apps row in android 7. Meanwhile, android 8 uses Channels, which is therefore causing the app to not work on the newest update. Just my thought.
The base framework hasn't changed enough that generating app shortcuts would break. Using the new channels UI would be a nice feature request, but if there are no logs or stacktraces to identify the issue it would be difficult to create a patch.
well got an update to a system function for the leanback and now its working LOL whats weird is it was talkback that was updated but the description did say it was part of leanback launcher :)
@sterno1966 thank you for that workround pain in the bum but works :-)
UK just got nvidia shield update and saddly some apps it cant make apk for
- chrome and gmail fail with instant crash back to launcher (cant understand how to get logs for you sorry)
- button remapper and microsoft rdk create apk fine but cant auto install as tvapprepo is not in the list to alow that option
still manualy installing them works ok
weird i think nvidia has got it in for your app heheheheh
It only occurs with certain apps. So far for me it doesn't work on:
Chrome Hulu Plus Series Mate Lifx SeriesGuide Amazon AppStore
Same behavior as above. It crashes back to the home screen (really, it crashes back to the last window you had open. If you multi-task over to TV App Repo, it'll crash back to the last app you were running.)
No 20 seconds message, just "Create Shortcut" and then crash.
Same issue since the update. If the app you want to create the shortcut for has a dark green shaded box under neath the icon in the leanback row where you'd go to create the shortcut clicking on create shortcut brings you back to the home screen - it crashes. Apps that I had previously successfully created a shortcut for successfully and for whatever reason deleted - that now show that green shaded box (with the app name in it) now crash and no shortcut can be created. Those boxes under neath the app in the leanback row now has all sorts of colors associated with the apps though it seems to be just those with the green color that fail. Firefox has a bright blue box, there are some apps that are bright red and one is pistachio green but just those with the dark green won't work and crash tvapprepo.
If someone knows how to produce the logs I would be glad to post them.
Yandex Browser is one. Chrome, Google Drive, Reddit, GMAIL,
It would be very weird if the color of the icon resulted in the app crashing.
To get the logs, you'll need to setup ADB on your computer and then connect to your device and run adb logcat
As I said it's the color under the icon that has the name of the app etc not the icon itself. You wrote an app for android tv but from the sounds of it it you don't have an android tv yourself?
Still happening, FYI. Happy to pull logs if there's some instructions.
TV App Repo doesn't show in Settings -> Security & restrictions -> Unknown sources. It does seem to sometimes download the generated apk (most often not), but on my Shield TV it doesn't seem to even try to install it as the appropriate dialog window doesn't show up (no crash though). Downloaded apk was in 'Downloads' folder, and I could install it, after giving the proper permissions to 'File Commander'.
This is what I found in the logs:
(from logcat)

^ Speak for yourself. For some people it just crashes without downloading anything.
Same here on up-to-date Shield:
