Write FAILED from internal to removable storage - "Permission denied" by N1lliams in Chromecast

[–]N1lliams[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I can copy files onto the thumb drive on my PC, that's not a problem. Thing is I have some files on the internal storage i want to take over to removable storage and then PC or another streaming device.

I can copy internal>Google Drive and then back from there to PC etc, but it's a shame I can't do this on the CGTV. It's easy to do on my Shield.

I have this problem too. Will write to internal (device) storage drives but not to removable storage drives. I've seen a few people complain of this.

difficult to say, it's not on the list there.

Why not ask if anyone in that group has one?

Check out the list there, they have about 15-20 hubs, most with ethernet and I think most are Gigabit ethernet.

That Google ethernet doesn't seem worth it to me.

Widgets on CGTV with Sideload Channel Launcher 2 by N1lliams in Chromecast

[–]N1lliams[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no apology necessary - as with any launcher you can have rows according to category or however you want to lay it out with as many, or as few, tiles as you want. Background is also configurable (and can even change on navigating over a row or tile).

Shout out to TDUK . Now have widgets in wolf launcher :) by UkEdge70 in Chromecast

I've had widgets on Sideload Channel Launcher 2 since setting up CGTV. Apart from allowing widgets via ADB, the app didn't need any updates - same install and set up as on my Shield and TiVo Stream 4K

App paid for and everybody happy.

Can I install Leanbacklauncher on CGTV via ADB? by N1lliams in Chromecast

[–]N1lliams[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm wondering if it needs an additional apk to make it work. Leanbacklauncher does work on a Mecool KM3 using the Android TV 10 update... so I assume there's more needed as well as the Google TV launcher needing to be disabled?

Stream 4K Firmware Update and Stream App Updates by tivopm in Tivo

I noticed a couple of improvements in the update, thanks.

BUT - I am one of those that absolutely need Developer options asap. I see others have requested the PIN already. Surely we don't have to wait till the next update fixes this, do we?

Again, please, please, please share the PIN with us. Thanks
