Same here, after my Youtube app dissapearing, most likely to an WebOS update.

Doesn't work, and when I try to use the CLI tools I get "signature verification failed". Might be related.

I had the same issue on my MacBook, so I tried it on my Windows PC. Initially, it didn't work there either. However, I removed the TV from the app and reconfigured it. After that, everything worked fine, and I was able to install YouTube Adfree again.

@bmekni I tried that, but still no luck.

I also tried installing an apk directly, instead of using the available channel apps. Stuck at "Please Wait" again

But when I tried to install the apk with @webos-tools/cli, using the same ose profile as Dev Manager Desktop, it worked just fine and without a hitch

Having same issue. Tried rolling back to an earlier version of webos manager so I could remove devices, re-added my TV, still gets stuck at installation.

I also lost my apps (Homebrew Channel + YouTube AdFree) a few days after an update of LG Content Store.

I got the infinite "please wait" loop when trying to reinstall apps with webOS Dev Manager.

The fix for me was to reset the TV :

All settings
General
System
Reset to Initial Settings

Then i got an error in webOS Dev Manager :

Unable to get installed apps Key authorization failed

The fix was to re-add my TV as a new device.

Now I can install apps without errors ✅

It's a pretty annoying fix because you have to reconfigure all the settings on the TV...

I had the same problem, then I tried what @m4zd4r said and it worked.

theres a work around from another ticket that doesnt need you to initilize the TV: https://github.com/webosbrew/dev-manager-desktop/issues/259#issuecomment-2414430580
