SHIELD Android TV Version 11

Steps to reproduce the bug

  3. Click "Check for updates"
  4. There is no feedback, normally there should be a message e.g. "you have the latest version, etc."

Actual behavior

I downloaded "SmartTube_stable_testing.apk", which successfully upgraded to 30.56, however, the "check for update" function doesn't work in 30.56.

Appreciate if you could take a look, many thanks!

Maybe because of this - https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTube/releases/tag/notification

https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTube/issues/5131#issue-3670629826 This is intentional, due to the signature of this app getting exposed, don't worry, just wait for a new build to arrive.

I think this is the same problem as not showing toast messages. When pressing up in a video the speed goes up but normally it would show 1.1x etc. That toast message is missing now too.

This is the same mechanisme as showing "you have the latest version" as toast message.

To the others: note that this is already in the new version.

I'm concerned there's no notification whether 30.56 is legit or not

On my Android TV 7.1.1 toast messages are present, but on Android TV 14 they are missing. Maybe some kind of a permission issue on newer Android versions? I tried to manually allow a toast permission in adb appops set org.smarttube.beta TOAST_WINDOW allow but it didn't change the situation. I still have SmartTube beta 30.55 installed and it has other permissions that 30.56 don't.

Ah, just got the 30.59 stable update in my menu. And toast messages are back (with a little different theme). Including the message "you are on the latest version". So this is solved.
