TIL you can flash ROMs onto Android TV devices.
Edit: I’ve never looked into making a custom Android TV device either. I have a Shield but it could be cool to make my own with a Pi 5 or something for travel.
Only works if you haven’t updated it since the February 2021 update. You also would lose the actual built in Chromecast feature.
Cool but I don’t really see why you would do it on this device when you can just flash android to a raspberry pi or something and have basically the same thing at that point.
I have an orange pi running android 12 hooked up to a TV and the lack of native apps for stuff like hulu [tablets not supported.] and I have the navigation bar stuck on the bottom even in full screen mode. I need to figure out a way to hide that. So it’s not quite so easy. If Lineage can come with the TV configuration working out of the box, then for 50 bucks WITH a remote… its an absolute STEAL.
That’s really cool
