Sony TV Launcher anytime without TV

RecentGlance · Sep 8, 2014

As the title said, I've tested it on my Z1 and it's working without any issues.

This is not the actual app itself, It's only an ENABLER to make it work anytime without TV. It will only work on the devices which has TVLauncher already in the system.

It may work for other devices, test it and report.

File in the attachments, Enjoy.

UPDATE : For people who didn't work for them, just flash the fix in the attachments through CWM. The app is working fine now.

UPDATE.2.FIXED : Here is a Z3 black version for the black lovers, Thanks to @Thechiller86.

That's it. Hope it works for all of you.

It allows you to run TV launcher without TV, which supposedly work only when you connect it to a TV.

working very well on my Stock Z1. Thank you!

Just installed as normal .APK without the need of setting any permissions or pushing to /system. It became my new carmode launcher

you need to have stock without apps disabled or debloated for it to work.

It doesn't matter if you are rooted, deodexed or not.

Do you need logcat?

EDIT:
Here you go, sorry for a big one, though i tried to remove as much irrelevent data (before the start of this current log)

EDIT 2:
uploaded a clean version of logcat, hope it helps :fingers-crossed:

I'm sorry, what should I look for ?

if you took a programming course, then you might be able to understand the errors in logcat, and by decompiling the relevent apks, maybe try to fix them? but for this "fixing" part, some knowledge about java (i think thats the language apks are decompiled in) is needed
I think this is how it works.
But its ok

Just chill if its working for you :laugh:

Actually I'm not a programmer, I did it using tasker, maybe If you have tasker you can do it too.
