IF its an android, connect to it via ADB and disable all the BS apps, even launcher. I am using projectivity launcher on mine, even has child lock which we really need. No ads or popups etc at all. YouTube is all we watch on this TV anyway, and retro gaming and movies.

I also have Nvidia Shield connected to it, that one is setup the same way.



Do any Android-based TVs allow you to install and use a custom launcher?
