CleanYourTV

项目介绍

CleanYourTV is a vibe-coded ADB toolkit that de-bloats Android TV and Google TV devices over Wi-Fi and replaces the ad-filled home screen with a clean, Apple-TV-style launcher — no root, no cable, nothing uninstalled, and a one-line restore. The story behind it is pure vibe coding. On 17 October 2026, developer Gathin T. wrote on X: "Vibe coded my parents' TV this afternoon! It was showing a sponsored ad before you could even get to Netflix. Gave Claude Code the model number, it found the TV on wifi, removed 25 Xiaomi packages and wrote a new launcher. Looks like an Apple TV now lol." He quoted his own post at the top of the README — the repo was literally called tv-vibehack until the 19th. How it works: Android TVs expose the same debug bridge as Android phones. You switch on USB debugging in the TV's developer options, allow your computer once, and the rest is standard Android tooling — a guided script removes bloatware packages and installs the new launcher. The response was explosive: created on 17 October, it passed 17,500 stars in five days, hit #1 on trendshift's weekly trending, and was covered by dozens of media outlets. Replies to the original post crowdsourced the support list, which now covers 107 TV models across 37 brands, with 5 releases and a one-line restore command.
