Android TV 9

Dont work on licensed androidTV 9. The laucher keys not working, tried with Back, Dpad L, Up, Right, Center. Etc. I used the keycodes detected by keyevent detector app.

@cfercl Sorry I don't understand what do you mean by a licensed androidTV9

You will need an actual remote in order for the mouse to work (and you can only use keycodes that are generated by the remote). Sending soft-events does not work because they bypass the accessibility system.

Thank you for your answer. What I mean is I have a Smart TV with original Android TV v9, the TV is from a local but licensed brand with Android TV. I am using the original remote control (I.R and Bluetooth) but I tried with keycodes for Mute, Back and DPad arrows bottons but it doesn't work. I used an 3rd app to read the keycodes sent by the remote control and it shows normal keycodes for back and all dpad bottons, for example 4 for Back, I tested with all of them but dont work (I Changed the keycode because the default Mute botton was unable to be detected) so i believe they are some kind of problem or incompatibility with my android TV v9 O.S. when the keycode is changed in your app. :( Sorry for my English.

There are my keycodes but not working for me.

I see. Can you confirm if the mouse event services were activated on your device? i.e are you able to see Accessibility Service: Running on matvt GUI ?

Yes, all things are enable and running.

Hi, I have a similar issue, Iam on latest version as above but does not work on TCL android 9 TV. Which boss key will work? Thanks for the App. More thanks if you can make it work.

Hi @cfercl and @droidget @sweenwolf have introduced a boss key detection function which will automatically detect the bosskey based on the button pressed on remote.

I encourage you to try it out. I hope this will resolve your issues

Thanks a lot @virresh and @sweenwolf https://github.com/sweenwolf but unfortunately it didn't work for me, none key was detected. I really want to use the mouse toggle but.. Thanks again for your help.

Thanks @karthikfiretv for reporting. Unfortunately I'm not able to reproduce this with the Google TV emulator image released publically.

It's possible that the actual hardware TV has some features removed. Can someone please post ADB/Android Studio logs?

Would be helpful if I can know what is going wrong.

Closing this as it needs more information and it's been quite a while now.
