Affected version
ALL - but problem exists only after the Android TV update to v. 14 on those cheapest device of the platform. Regardless of (beta or stable) version #
Device Type
Smart TV/Box
Affected Android
Only occurred after Android TV 14 update on CHEAPEST model onn (Wal-Mart) boxes. I also have the "PRO" version, it's not affected with it's OS updated to A14
Steps to reproduce the bug
follow the usual path to update the app (popup or about) when presented with the "changelog" or "install update" (under the version number about to be installed) Changelog selection functions to show... its purpose, but selecting "Install update" does nothing but indicate the press input... it does no advance to offer the install prompt.
Actual behavior
Selecting "Install update" does nothing but indicate the press input did occur... (dark grey, to brief lighter gray, back to dark grey) it does not advance to offer the install prompts
Additional information
I have searched all permissions to uncover an adjustment to remedy. No path to resolution was found therein.
I'm on a onn tv stick and having the same issue.
BTW an update can still be retrieved & installed by using 79015 (beta version) with Downloader tool.
Both pathways are not functional.
not yet
same problem occurs on my Chromecast with Android 14
Update: After yesterday's android 14 Chromecast update, the built-in update function in SmartTube magically started working so it was more of an Android bug
MIne is also havng a problem since Android 14 inadvertantly installed. For now I installed "localsend' on the PC and the box and to send the apk from the PC. Also installed an Android file explorer to run it once it was received So far so good. Updating all the avalable apps on the Onn box did not resolve the problem
### FYI to all w/ this onn box problem. Fully acceptable workaround is to use code 79015 with the Downloader app. Works just fine.
