The app doesn't properly on android 8.0 Oreo
The current version of the app doesn't work properly on android 8.0 Oreo or higher since it doesn't have permission to install apps from unknown sources. It's a new permission that was added at android 8.0. To fix this problem, you have to add the following tag to the manifest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES" />
I've downloaded the source code and added this tag and managed to run correctly this app on an android tv 8.0 emulator using android studio.
I hope you upload a new release for this app with this fix, It would be wonderful!
That's pretty interesting.
I wonder how necessary it will be in Oreo, since you'll be able to pin arbitrary things to the homescreen.
Definitely something that should be fixed.
Thank you for replying. I hope you fix this issue soon. I also can't seem to find the app on the play store, so if you can look into this issue. I'm running Android TV Oreo.
I dont think anyone is working on this anymore.
@mataniss I tried to disassemble it with apktool and add the line you mentioned in the manifest, but it will not re-build, even without adding the line. Do you have a working copy I could get from you?
@Fleker I have a few apps that do not show, like yatse, but yet I can create a lin to them in Kodi or something and they run fine. I really would like to be able to create the shorcuts and hope someone can fix this or something else soon!
@Wanderer189 Download Android studio and GitHub desktop and either download the project from the browser or use GitHub desktop to sync a copy to you pc and launch Android studio to recompile the app with the change
Could anyone provide a working apk here for people like me who don't know what manifest is and how to build and compile apps on their own? Would be awesome! Right now some apps worked but most for most of them tvapprepo fast closes on me after selecting "create shortcut".
Thx for the effort, but upon creating a shortcut the app still fast closes :(

Yeah, I can't get any results with it on Shield either (folks claim the mi boxes run authentic Android TV OS, but I have yet for a single person tell me if they allow you to use shared network storage like the Shield does, I think it just a better clone than the others)

Here is another link to the apk that works with oreo: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jE4P5QsCFjD6l-IM8iLeRaK2bohd9pNw/view?usp=sharing

This still doesn't work on a Nvidea Shield
Yeah, this hasn't worked since android 8 I believe and no one seems or has attempted to fix it correctly...
