For this TV there are 3 steps. Together they switch off 16 things you do not need, and leave 10 services alone that the TV needs to work. Nothing is deleted, and every step can be undone. The list comes from owners who tested it on their own TVs; we have not re-tested it on yours.
What the first step does
Step 1: Boot ads and autostart queue
Removes sponsored banners and recommendation rows.
- Coocaa ad engine (boot ad, started by bootQueue.xml at ~5 s)
com.tianci.ad - Boot push notifications (bootQueue.xml, ~1.2 s)
com.tianci.push - Coocaa App Store
com.tianci.appstore - Tianci IPC helper
com.tianci.ipc - Background APK auto-install service
com.tianci.autoinstaller
The rest of the guide
- Step 2: Account service
- Step 3: Commercial bloatware and unused features
- What is left alone, the Mac and Windows files, the undo files and the testers' notes
$9.90 once unlocks every model. 7-day refund. Details
