[TOTAL MOD] Playing With Fire (v4) NEW "LazyLeanback" Installer - AndroidTV on FireTV

Got this working on Fire TV 2 running Rooted v5.2.6.2

So for the first time in almost 18 months I got the chance to play with my Fire TV 2 and I have managed to get this running on my Fire TV 2 running rooted firmware v5.2.6.2
I want to give all credit to SimLynks for this MOD. Without his work, I could not have tweaked it a little to work on the latest firmware and latest GAPPS (2018-03-31).

THIS IS FOR A FIRE TV 2, Running Rbox Pre-rooted rom "sloane-5.2.6.2-rooted_r1.zip"
I UPDATED THE GAPPS-CONFIG SO THIS WORKS WITH NEWER VERSIONS OF GAPPS. TESTED ON "open_gapps-arm64-5.1-tvstock-20180331" (Linked below)
I HAVE ALSO CORRECTED THE WIFIDIRECT BUG, TWEAKED A FEW THINGS AND REPACKAGED THE "PlayFire_v4a_LazyLeanback.tar.gz" FILE. YOU WILL SEE IT IS NOW VERSION v4a.
I CHANGED HOW XPOSEDEDGE IS NOW INSTALLED. APP INSTALL VIA APK AND CONFIG FILES INSTALL VIA LAZYLEANBACK SCRIPT. THIS WILL ENSURE THAT THE SETTING CHANGES BUG IS CORRECTED.
I REMOVED LIVE CHANNELS FROM GAPPS SYSTEM INSTALL. YOU CAN INSTALL THIS LATER VIA PLAY STORE IF YOU USE IT.
I RECOMMEND YOU FOLLOW MY INSTRUCTION BELOW TO INSTALL MY MODIFIED FILES AS THE ORDER OF THINGS HAVE CHANGED A LITTLE.
I ALSO RECOMMEND CLEANING YOUR DEVICE PRIOR TO STARTING: Wiping System, Data, Internal, Dalvik/Cache, and then reinstalling RBox's Prerooted Rom.

INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS
You may wish to change something from my build - Below is the step by step that I took, after figuring out some bugs, taking a different approach on the install sequence, amending some files to get a fully workuing system.
Note, you will need to insert your Fire TVs IP address in place of the 192.168.xxx.x when running adb commands
GAPPS DOWNLOADS FOR THE VERSION USED:
https://github.com/opengapps/arm64/r...k-20180331.zip
https://github.com/opengapps/arm64/r...180331.zip.md5

1) Boot to TWRP, wipe your device (Optional but recommended) and then install Rbox Pre-rooted rom "sloane-5.2.6.2-rooted_r1.zip"
2) Reboot device and perform signing in to Amazon if required. Goto Settings -> Device -> Developer Options and enable ABD Debugging and Apps from Unknown Sources.
3) Download the GAPPS required files linked above and my "Playing_With_Fire_v4a.ZIP" file here. Md5 File
4) EXTRACT THE Playing_With_Fire_v4a.ZIP THEN:
PLACE THE CONTENTS OF THE "sdcard" FOLDER TO THE ROOT OF A MICRO SD CARD or USB along with the downloaded GAPPS .zip & .zip.md5. Thus ensuring the gapps-config.txt is with the GAPPS files.
PLACE THE "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" folder in "C:\Program Files (x86)" of your Windows PC. If you already have this you can just overwrite.
NOTE: I have configured the "gapps-config.txt" file to include leanback launcher in the install.
5) Open "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" by clicking the shortcut link in the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot" folder.
Connect to your device's ADB terminal and run the following commands to install the Busybox APK and push files to /sdcard/
adb kill-server
adb start-server
adb connect 192.168.xxx.xx
adb install -r busybox.apk
adb install -r XposedEdge_v4.4.1.apk

NOTE: You MUST OPEN the Busybox app on the Fire TV and install the Busybox Binaries, BEFORE YOU RUN the LazyLeanback Scripts.
If you don't, everything may APPEAR TO INSTALL OK, BUT YOU WILL BE MISSING A CRITICAL step that allows OpenGApps TV-Stock to fully install all required libraries properly.

6) On the Fire TV box, run Busybox, and install Binaries on Fire TV device (Allowing SuperUser permissions)
Also, open the XposedEdge app and then close it. This will ensure the prefs folder is created and will prevent errors in the LazyLeanback Script later.

7) Continue on ADB to push the required files to the Fire TV sdcard directory:
adb push gapps-config.txt /sdcard/
adb push HDXPosed-1.3.apk /sdcard/
adb push PlayFire_v4a_LazyLeanback.tar.gz /sdcard/
adb push XposedInstaller_3.1.5.apk /sdcard/

8) Continue on ADB with the following code (After the below "su" command you will need to allow Superuser on the FireTV as this is the first time requesting root):
adb shell
su
tar -xzvf /sdcard/PlayFire_v4a_LazyLeanback.tar.gz

9) MAKE SURE YOU ARE STILL IN A ROOT SHELL AND ONLY ONCE YOU ARE ROOT RUN THE LAZYLEANBACK SCRIPTS
Code:
adb shell
su
sh /sdcard/PlayFire/LazyLeanback.sh

Note: While in shell, you can type: df to check /system partition space (If you have 130M+ you should be good to go using my gaaps-config.txt file)

10) Reboot into TWRP and install the Updated SuperSU-v2.82 "UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.82-20170528234214.zip"(if you hadn't already)
11) Continue in TWRP and install OpenGApps "open_gapps-arm64-5.1-tvstock-20180331.zip"
12) Continue in TWRP and install Xposed "xposed-v89-sdk22-arm64.zip"
Once you've successfully installed these 3 in TWRP, reboot the system.

13) Connect to your device's ADB terminal and run the next FINAL command FROM A ROOT SHELL (OR IT WILL NOT WORK)
adb kill-server
adb start-server
adb connect 192.168.xxx.x
adb shell
su
sh /sdcard/PlayFire/LazyNoTouch.sh

14) Go into Xposed and enable Xposed Edge and HDXPosed, Then reboot the Fire TV (again)

15) Go into Xposed Edge and Enable "Keys"

16) Reboot

17) YOU ARE MOSTELY DONE. AT THIS POINT YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY LOGIN TO GOOGLE PLAY STORE.

18) Disable services not needed (I done this through ADB shell but there are other ways if you want):
adb shell
su
pm disable com.amazon.device.software.ota
pm disable com.amazon.device.software.ota.override

Note: The next 3 are related to the Amazon launcher. You should disable if you don't use it, or leave it if you do.
pm disable com.amazon.tv.launcher
pm disable com.amazon.device.sale.service
pm disable com.amazon.vizzini

19) Done - You can now proceed to perform other activities (additional blacklisting etc)

Please note that the TV-Stock GApps package is quite large. This is why I recommend a clean start on your system.
Even when many of the useless packages are being ignored via the custom "gapps-config.txt" file.
This directs the GApps installer and tells it specifically what to install and what to ignore[/B].
As example, on a FireTV-v1 after doing a total wipe of System, Data, Internal, Dalvik/Cache, then reinstalling RBox's Prerooted Rom,
I only had about 140MB of free space in my /system partition.

Xposed Edge Notes:
Enable Button Remapping via "Keys" in Xposed Edge & Editing the Xposed Edge Custom Configuration:
Home Button Single Press = Leanback Launcher (Home)
Home Button Double Press = Running Apps List Overlay + Task Switcher
Home Button Long Press = On-Screen Menu Options
Back Button Long Press = Kill foreground app
Menu Button Long Press = Installed Applications Drawer Overlay + App Launcher
Voice (Search) Button Single Press = Google Search (Katniss)
Voice (Search) Button Long Press = TV Voice Input
These settings along with all other custom button mappings can be edited within the Xposed Edge application.

YOU MUST ENABLE the "Xposed Edge" module within Xposed AND THEN ENABLE "Keys" from within the main Xposed Edge settings menu before all these configuration options will take effect.


ADMIN OTHER NOTES:
The following do not need to be placed in /sdcard/ taking up space.
They can be installed using TWRP from a USB or MicroSD location:
xposed-v89-sdk22-arm64.zip
UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.82-20170528234214.zip
open_gapps-arm64-5.1-tvstock-20180331.zip
open_gapps-arm64-5.1-tvstock-20180331.zip.md5

ENJOY!

How to set custom Sleep or Screensaver times on the Amazon Fire TV or Stick without root

While the Amazon Fire TV and Fire TV Stick allow you to select from never, 5, 10, or 15 minutes for the screensaver timer, there is nowhere in the device’s settings to change the sleep timer. That’s set to 20 minutes regardless of how the screensaver is configured. Even though it’s not in the interface, it’s actually possible to set a custom sleep timer, a custom screensaver timer, or disable them altogether. This guide will show you how.
I’ve written guides about these topics in the past, but new methods have been discovered that do not require rooting the device.
The numeric values you use in this guide are in milliseconds. The default sleep value is 1200000, which is 20 minutes. The default screensaver value is 300000, which is 5 minutes. If you select “never” from the Fire TV’s screensaver settings, the screensaver timer gets set to 2147460000, which is about 24 days. Setting a value of 0 does not disable the screensaver but it does seem to work to disable the sleep timer, however it may be better to just use a very large value like Amazon does to disable the screensaver.
The sleep timer starts counting immediately after the device goes idle, not from when the screensaver starts. So setting a 5 minute screensaver timer and a 10 minute sleep timer will result in the device going to sleep 5 minutes after the screensaver starts.

Guide

1. Connect to your Fire TV device via ADB.
2. To set a custom sleep timer run the command:
   adb shell settings put secure sleep_timeout 123456789 
3. To set a custom screensaver timer run the command:
   adb shell settings put system screen_off_timeout 123456789
   (Remember to change 123456789 to the value in milliseconds that you want to set. Use 0 and 2147460000 to disable the sleep and screensaver timer, respectively.)
4. [OPTIONAL] To see the current timer value, and verify the value you entered was correctly saved, 
5. run this command for the sleep timer:
   adb shell settings get secure sleep_timeout
6. And this command for the screensaver timer:
   adb shell settings get system screen_off_timeout

Block Updates on Fire TV (Without Root)

Method 2: Block on Fire TV (Without Root)

This method requires Fire OS 5.0.0 thru 5.0.5.1 to be installed on your Fire TV or Fire TV Stick to work. The only way to block updates on version 5.2.1.0 and up is to either be rooted and use method 1, or use method 3 or 4 to block updates externally. If your device is rooted, you should follow method 1 instead of this method. This method ‘hides’ the update service on the device, which prevents updates, whereas method 1 disables it. It’s always a good idea to also use Method 3 or 4 to externaly block updates in case the update service gets re-enabled, which happens after a factory reset.

Pros

• Does not require router or DNS setting changes.
• Updates remain blocked when using Fire TV outside of your home network.
• Disables updates on the device itself.

Cons

• Updates will be re-enabled after a factory reset.

Method 2 Guide

1. Connect to your Fire TV via ADB
2. Run the command: adb shell pm hide com.amazon.device.software.ota
   (If the message “unknown command hide” appears, it’s because this only works on software version 5.0 and up, as I stated above. You need to use method 3 or 4 instead.)
3. Run the command: exit

To re-enable updates, simply follow this guide again but replace hide with unhide in step 2. Alternatively, performing a factory reset will also re-enable updates.

Block Updates on Fire TV (Requires Root)

Method 1: Block on Fire TV (Requires Root)

This method disables the service running on the Fire TV which checks for updates. Your Fire TV must be rooted to use this method. If your Fire TV is rooted, this is the recommended method, but it’s always a good idea to also use Method 3 to block updates via your router in case the update service gets re-enabled, which happens after a factory reset.

Pros

• Does not require router or DNS setting changes.
• Updates remain blocked when using Fire TV outside of your home network.
• Disables updates on the device itself.

Cons

• Requires Root.
• Updates will be re-enabled after a factory reset.

Method 1 Guide

1. Your Fire TV must be rooted. Otherwise, use one of the other methods to block software updates.
2. Connect to your Fire TV via ADB
3. Run the command: adb shell
4. Run the command: su
   (Be sure to select “Grant” if your Fire TV prompts you for superuser access.)
5. For Fire OS 3, run the command: pm disable com.amazon.dcp
   For Fire OS 5 (version 5.0.0 and up), run the command: pm disable com.amazon.device.software.ota
6. Run the command: exit
7. Run the command: exit
   (Yes, you do this twice.)

To re-enable updates, simply follow this guide again but replace disable with enable in step 5. Alternatively, performing a factory reset will also re-enable updates.
Updates will not be re-enabled when installing custom ROMs.
