Error Guide
Common Android TV errors and fixes
Many Android TV errors have simple causes: missing permissions, low storage, unsupported file formats, weak network, or a file that moved after a playlist or app saved its path.
Error reference
| Error | Likely cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| App not installed | Blocked unknown source, incompatible version, or corrupted APK. | Verify the APK, allow install access temporarily, and redownload if needed. |
| Storage full | Internal storage is low. | Delete duplicate APKs, clear cache, and move media externally. |
| File not found | The file was moved, deleted, or stored on disconnected USB. | Reconnect storage or update the playlist/file path. |
| USB not detected | Power, adapter, or file system issue. | Try another adapter, powered hub, or supported format. |
| Playback failed | Unsupported codec or damaged file. | Test another file and try local playback from internal storage. |
