Getting an Android App to Show Up in the market for "Sony Internet TV"(Google TV)
- by user1291659
I'm having a bit of trouble getting my app to show up in the market under GoogleTV. I've searched google's official documentation and I don't believe the manifest lists any elements which would invalidate the program; the only hardware requirement specified is landscape mode, wakelock and external storage(neither which should cause it to be filtered for GTV according to the documentation) and I set the uses touchscreen elements "required" attribute to false.
below is the AndroidManifest.xml for my project:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.whateversoft"
android:versionCode="2"
android:versionName="0.1" >
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="8" />
<application
android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="Color Shafted"
android:theme="@style/Theme.NoBackground"
android:debuggable="false">
<activity
android:label="Color Shafted"
android:name=".colorshafted.ColorShafted"
android:configChanges = "keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation"
android:screenOrientation = "landscape">
<!-- Set as the default run activity -->
<intent-filter >
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity
android:label="Color Shafted Settings"
android:name=".colorshafted.Settings"
android:theme="@android:style/Theme"
android:configChanges = "keyboard|keyboardHidden">
<!-- -->
</activity>
</application>
<!-- DEFINE PERMISSIONS FOR CAPABILITIES -->
<uses-permission android:name = "android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
<uses-permission android:name = "android.permission.WAKE_LOCK"/>
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.touchscreen" android:required="false" />
<!-- END OF PERMISSIONS FOR CAPABILITIES -->
</manifest>
I'm about to start promoting the app after the next major release so its been kind of a bummer since I can't seem to get this to work. Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance : )
