Hey guys,
I've got a 2015 model bravia & I'm pretty tired with all the spam that clogs my home screen.
What can i do to fix it? I've tried disabling apps, most won't let me & the rest are channels.
I've tried installing the HAL launcher that looked super promising but... Apparently after the update won't let me set it as a default launcher.
Is there any way to root & install stock? Or any other work arounds? It's a real bummer to own an Android device you can't customise, kind of defeats the purpose...
Anyways, thanks for the help, sorry if this isn't the right place.
You can get rid of the 'recommended apps' row by shutting down the sony shelf and sony select. You can customize the 'recommended for you' top row in the 'home screen' settings.
This gives me a mostly spamless ui. There are some apps that sony baked into the tv.
