res/layout/activity_new_uiactivity.xml

scroll down to around line 154 and you will see this <ImageButton entery

<ImageButton
android:background="@drawable/rtx_multi_btn"
android:focusable="true"
android:clickable="true"
android:layout_width="@dimen/_70sdp"
android:layout_height="@dimen/_52sdp"
android:eek:nClick="mExtrabutton"

android:layout_marginStart="@dimen/_15sdp" />

now use your new best friend the
android:visibility="gone" comand so the section now looks like this :-


<ImageButton
android:background="@drawable/rtx_multi_btn"
android:focusable="true"
android:visibility="gone"
android:clickable="true"
android:layout_width="@dimen/_70sdp"
android:layout_height="@dimen/_52sdp"
android:eek:nClick="mExtrabutton"

android:layout_marginStart="@dimen/_15sdp" />

and now the icon is gone :)


Thanks I'm not sure how I didnt catch that.

I added the fix from the dev so now the APK will launch external app on most devices
as i have said before its up to the Dev if he wants to share he was good enough to give it to me to prove it works.
I also have done a few changes myself mostly to do with the navigation icons at the bottom of the main screen I had to reduce the spacing to get them to fit on large TV screen and also move live TV to far left. I added HDO panelled as the external app but you can add any of the usual suspects:)
I have been theming this app from 1.7 so have all icons and theme scripts pre done its just a case of swapping them in with original
I have also changed the login screen to display your logo image (not in video)

I have posted how to do this previously on the forums

i have been doing all work on emulators up until now so when i transfered the app over to my shields it will not launch any external app via that button keeps coming up item not found try again
works perfect on android 9 emulator but a no go for shields also
i have two versions of FLIX and shield blocks both from being installed one hax one RTx may well be a false call
but not sure ? think its a message from playstore saying its a fake which would be perfectly possible :) pain having to plug keyboard into shield to click ignore
Whos the dev? As the app has 3 different names init 🤔

I did the same order as well originally. Also reduced the margin start after each button then all the buttons generally fit on every screen without horizontal scroll. [android:layout_marginStart="@dimen/_3sdp"]

also now working on a better sports interface/information and controls that all interface from the panel. Still in the early stages and most likely be released when a newer version of sparkle is out after 1.9.6.

Sports guide - (select from 4 in the panel)
Sports table - (configure sports tables)
Sports results/fixtures (configure leagues/sports)
Provider updates (Links to telegram bot to post updates from channel)

All information will be pulled from api-football to begin with with multiple API keys in rotation . so you can get away with just using free accounts. Other sports to follow.

Telegram integration is working well but currently telegram API don't have a delete API so messages have to be manually deleted by the panel. Also possible to link to your sports schedule channel.


All colours and information will be configurable from within the panel.

Demo Link

Open to further suggestions to add.
Did u have a new link for the video to see cheers

Fix is already included here?

....

Edit:
Oh that is:
archactivity_new_uiactivity.xml

Nothing to do with the fix, right?

....

:unsure: -- Waiting to see if the launching of the external app will be corrected... Great work. Always liked Sparkle seems to have a great dev behind it as they continue to make improvements and add things to it.

I think RTX is the one that did the dashboard layout. So the fix needs to come from them it seems.
RTX cracked the original 1.9.5 and done the dashboard layout. I first tried this dashboard layout end of last year used to look alot different at first then I demonstrated it with my icons and TMDB background. I also pushed for the extra button to be implemented as I needed it for CINEMA Hd at the time now steamio. The project got put on hold due to the official sparkle dev Keep releasing different versions.

yes its been fixed by RTX m8 speak nicely to him you never know :) see previous video i posted that was shot on Nvidia shield
first version of this app will only external launch on android 9 and below which by todays standards are a handfull of firesticks
the fix although slightly different method works 100%
