Can somebody hack the ui framework to change the dock button functions for all apps and add widgets?
I've just realised that I do not hate sence, I just hate the sense dock. Everything else is perfect, but for my use the dock is stupid.
I wanna change the way it works and heres why:
After setting up all my homescreens I do not need the plus sign button to allow me to add widgets shortcuts etc. Should I need it I can long press a home screen. Basically the button is now just wasted space.
Since I got apps organizer with folder shortcuts on my home screens, I never use the all apps button on the dock any more. That too is now wasted space. The few times i do need all apps I can access them from menu-all apps. Its one extra click...
Basically I now got this large dock with only one button that I use, the phone button.
But the dock is pretty, works with the sense look, and all alternatives makes me loose sense as a whole (I have to use a different home) and in addition the stock android or helix still gives me the all apps button that i do not use...
I wanna map mail to the "all apps button" on the sense dock and I want to have sms on the "add widget button"
Can this be done?

Does anyone know where I can get a widget for the HTC TV app? Specifically I am looking for for a widget that has the power on/off button. If a widget for the HTC TV app is unavailable, are there any other apps that have a TV remote controller function/widgets?
Hi, I am setting a Fire TV 4K stick for my mother in law, and would like to make it as simple as possible. She only needs to use two apps: Netflix and Youtube. Is there any way to quickly launch one of those two apps? Right now, clicking the home button will show the "Sling App" on top, I have to click the down button two times to highlight the most recent app (Youtube or Netflix) and then press the center button to select it. Easy for us but not so much for seniors.
I looked at Echo Buttons, but they don't support FireTV and looks like they are being discontinued?
I am also wondering if there are android app that can be installed on the phone to launch app on the fireTV. A widget would be perfect, so I could set up two widget buttons on her phone, one for Youtube and one for Netflix.
Any suggestions/recommendations for making it easier for seniors would be appreciated.
Thank you!
I need help figuring out a way to navigate the profiles for the fire tv without having to update the appstore with my older interface roms. The older ui doesn't support profiles so I'm wondering if it's possible to add it while holding the home button?
Hey guys, today I searched several hours for something to remap prime video/netflix/disney/music and that tv button near volume from my remote (guide?). Button Remapper/tvQuickActions is not seeing those buttons and I only found something without root that is remapping netflix and disney only to another apps. (no shortcuts, intents etc). I`m dissapointed because I have root and 5 buttons with no use... Any help please regarding this ?
Do you think xeed.xposed.cbppmod Physical Button Master Control is working for this remote ?
Ok I came back with some feedback. Until now only with xeed.xposed.cbppmod I could achieve this. Is reading very well the imput from stick remote dedicate buttons. Is a pain in the ass to use it because is a touch screen module and I had to use some wireless mouse app from phone, guge lag etc. nad I had to use an older version of Physical Button Master Control because with the newer one, I could not select any app/intent/shortcut option.
Xposed Edge has been working fine for me for many months. It also has many more features apart from button remap. Highly reccomend
Ok so I will only need xposed framework and edge module right ? How is it with navigation keys? With Physical Button Master Control module is a nightmare on firetv.
I used ‘Riru - LSPosed’ using Magisk instead of Xposed Framework and yes, I set it all up using just the Fire TV remote
Edit: The module is ‘Xposed Edge’, not ‘Edge’. You can just sideload apk
My config:
Home button
Single press: Wolf Launcher (this way you can have custom launcher with working alexa voice commands & firetv recommendations)
Double Press: Running Apps Drawer
Long Press: 3x3 custom panel
Back button
Double press: previous app
Long press: kill foreground app (useful in apps like Netflix)
Menu button:
Double press: Next App
Long Press: kill background apps (to free memory)
Live TV button:
Single press: Open Tivimate app (froze Live TV app using Xposed Edge Freezer for best results)
Double Press: Fire TV shows recommendations (you need to download ‘TV shows’ shortcut from app store’)
Long Press: Fire TV Movies recommendations (you need to download ‘movies’ shortcut from app store’)
Amazon Music button
Single press: Open YouTube (froze Amazon Music for best results)
.
Thank you. Seems that I can't use Riru - LSPosed on fire os 6 for my 4k. Minimum requirement, Android 8-12.

It doesn't matter, you just need xposed installed
Tanks again, edge is superior. Now I must find how can I disable black screen when a movie is paused or when listening music with kodi and tv closed screen. Tried using adb command for standby and screensaver, but I still have a black screen.
Black screen? I'm not experiencing the same problem, I dont think it has to do with Xposed Edge
True, I think is something dodgy with fire os and standby/screensaver.

Why not try Aerial Dream or Aerial Views screensaver? If it still doesn't resolve, I suppose you'll have to wipe data and set up again
Thanks, I will try that.
