Any way to get the old Android TV remote app working? The new one in the Google TV app is so buggy and I can only get 1 of my devices to show up (Walmart Onn UHD). It's annoying me because I never had this issue before with the old remote.
Update: Had to go in the play store and update "Android TV Remote Service". I will leave this up just in case anyone else has the same issue.
can't find "android tv remote service" on play store I have the "android tv remote" downloaded off of uptodown
I just realised the new remote app somehow does not work with Kodi on my Mi Stick. The old remote app works. Goddamn Google
Uninstall updates of the Android tv remote service app on Android TV playstore .
Install the Android TV remote service apk 4.7 Version on Android TV: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/android-tv-remote-service-android-tv/android-tv-remote-service-android-tv-4-7-377245813-release/android-tv-remote-service-4-7-377245813-android-apk-download/
Now previous Android TV remote app on Android phone will work
Also Turn off the Auto updates of apps on Google Play Store on Android TV, otherwise Android tv remote service will again update from 4.7 to 5.0 (so we have to turn off the updates)
On your viewing device/box/dongle, go to the Play Store and turn off Auto Update. Then find the remote app on the viewing device and "uninstall" to remove the update. That will take you back to the prior version and then your old remote app should work.
