TVLAUNCHER PRO [UPDATED v1.45!!!!] - Hide statusbar and hide apps

[samyboy89]

Hi everybody. I made an Android TV Launcher from scratch This was made especially for TV devices, as you can navigate only with your remote, and no need for a mouse etc.

NEW updated version of TV Launcher
Version: 1.04 freaktab edition
Choose between two different versions, one has hide capabilities and the other has favorites(All 8 theme colors). Both has all the theme options (Icon size, label etc.). Want it all? -> support me in further development and buy the pro version


I've worked a lot on this project the last couple of weeks. I've decided that you all can get a taste of the pro version, that's available in the Play Store. So I've made a freaktab version for you guys It will have a slight difference in features, but in stability and usefulness it is the same. Please consider donating to this project by purchasing the Pro version in the market. PRO Link: http://goo.gl/HLYtQ.

I will also allow Finless to include the PRO version in his upcoming roms if he desires. So you all get the full features if you use a Finless Rom



PRO Features:
Up to 6 Favorites on the main screen
- 3 Large favorites
Hide apps
Hide statusbar [Requires ROOT]
8 different theme colors
No need for touch or mouse
Built in Clock and Date widget
- 3 Different clock formats
- 5 Different date formats

Requested features:
Hide app labels (Done)
Hide apps from main app launcher (Done)
Larger icons (change icon size) (Done)
Weather on home screen (In the works)
Hide statusbar (Done)

Planned features:
Search functionality (In the works)

[neodoom]

i have had both work for me but the latest builds does not seem to work on the ug802 try one from the 8th of october i had the best stability with that one

at the end of the day if you want smooth playback of mkv or mp4 you need to use the oem video player!

divx xvid work well on xbmc

What do you guys think?

Question for you guys?
What are some important features you want in the launcher?
Please comment on what you would like, and I'll try and implement it.

As of now these are future features I'm working on:

UG802 is Neon

[craleu]

This is a wonderful Launcher!
Thank you

[Finless]

I will add it in a later ROM. Just too much to do to my latest ROM release to play with this.
But it looks GREAT!

Next release man

Hi,
is it possible to hide some apps from the launcher?

How i can create the second line of apps (where you have netflix, xbmc... apps?)

Thanks for this launcher

[samyboy89]

Hi TheBus,

If you go to settings, top right corner, and check favorites. Remember to only select ONE application in each list aswell.
The option to hide apps will be an upcomming feature. As others in the forum, this is not the only thing I do in my spare time

I'll release a much improved version later today. Be prepared to be amazed
