Troubleshooting.

Check that both devices use the same local network, not a guest network. Confirm debugging is enabled and look for an authorization request on the TV. A computer firewall, access-point isolation or changed TV address can block access. Follow the upstream connection troubleshooting section instead of guessing a port.

First check whether you downloaded the Android phone app or built the TV launcher: they target different devices. Compare the Android version with the package requirements. A signature mismatch may mean another build is already installed. Read the exact upstream error guidance before removing any installed package.

Default Home behaviour varies by firmware. Fire TV in particular limits third-party launchers. Read the exact model record and launcher instructions; do not disable the original launcher before its replacement has been checked.

Stop applying further changes. If your authorized connection still works, consult the backup and matching upstream recovery instructions. Device-specific firmware may re-enable packages at boot. Do not copy another TV’s disable list to solve this.

Review what was disabled and restore the affected packages using your own backup or the phone app’s undo controls. Network services and TV input components can be device-specific. Confirm the exact model record before trying again.

The project does not promise to block advertising within YouTube, Netflix or other streaming apps. Removing manufacturer home-screen recommendations is different from filtering in-app advertising.
