Erasing a non working youtube icon from the Himedia display
« on: October 28, 2019, 01:48:16 PM »
Hello guys, after I restore  or done factory reset,of my q10 ,, Then when i  logged in google play I put in settings not to update,,,So it will  ensure that if the  apps are not updated and I can install selectively the version of you tube that is version2.0 . Now when the new you tube was installed the old youtube  icon wont work anymore , so I had to copy another icon of youtube.... Now my problem is I want to remove the old icon of non working youtube existing in the Himedia screen but there seems to be no button for such removal..
Do you guys have experienced  the same issue that you want to intall the non existing icon but won't work? How did  you resolve it.?

The factory youtube TV app doesn't work anymore, you have to install the latest version from Apkmirror.

Highlight the icon you want to replace and then press the menu button on your remote. Select the app you want to use and press OK.

Yeah it is hard to believe the Himedia Launcher is such crap, Even $40 boxes these days have easily customizable launchers, I have never used the Himedia launcher since the day I got my box several years ago I hated it so much.

Okay I got it, I made the old youtube launcher functional again. Thanks.
