Porting Android Pie X86 R2 to Android TV X86

[Mi Box]

II am trying to port latest pie x86 r2 to android tv os but the system does not allow me to replace settings.apk  with tvsettings.apk. Something is blocking installation of tvsettings.apk even iwhen settings.apk is uninstalled. Any recommendation to solve this issue. By the way I am not linux/android expert for me it is just like hobby

[Iam Bryan]

Did already you made it before?

make sure all the packages are signed its a shame that the gapps team doesnt allow you to compile atvgapps like other gapps variants

I think you need to root and remount system as rw to modify system partition but I guess that this will not going to work either.

I think the best solution here would be to modify the device trees of Android x86 sources to do an android x86 ATV build.

For instance if you wanna build LineageOS 16 atv build using Android x86 BSP that would probably work as they put effort into supporting ATV builds for Nvidia foster and Asus fugu

You need to realize its not a simple taskYou need someone to have the experience to share, I already told you to make sure the packages are signed which they are not by default, have you done so?

[Mi Box]

thanks for the answer. as I mentioned before I am not android expert its just a hooby for me. What  I  need is just replace settings.apk  in adroid pie x86 r2 (android x86.org build) with tvsetting.apk. I have already replaced priv-app and app with tvgapps. Basicaly I have a smooth running Android Tv x86 Pie and works well but I can not enter settings because system does not allow me to install it. And I am sure there is a simple solution to instal it

TvSettings is part of aosp. You should just build it and ensure its an included package. 

I have a version here https://github.com/android-tv-x86/packages-apps-TvSettings which has the native bridge settings ported from the android-x86 project.

It's not working properly though, developer settings is broken and I've not had chance to debug it yet and root stuff is also not ported.

Can you post instructions on how you have accomplished it? we would need to replicate this, any modifications you made as even little things can make a big difference, if you have a github I can try to see if I can help out.

First I have installed pie x86 r2 via rufus,  downloaded latest opengaps atv build, replaced existing app and priv-app folder with the ones from opengaps and I copied all other files in the opengapps to relevant places, edited build.prop ( changed tablet to tv)

Either one by one, or make a script to sort them into appropriate folders, then you just mount the system partition and copy them over you may been to manually sign them

[Mitchel Stewart]

I made a short script to sort the files based on the list you posted, it should work

Sorry made a bad script, this one is also better detailed so you can tweak it to your needs better

[Mitchel Stewart]

I tried to replicate it, but you would need to post semi detailed instructions on what you did so we can follow along and try it out
