not sure how @Shayde performed the trick but I did it with an app(free) called local send. Installed localsend on the onn box and it was already on my linux pc and just sent the pic over like that.

There wasn’t anything special I did. It just worked. I installed, allowed access to files and media and the rest worked. Really didn’t have to do anything extra.
Can add that my wallpapers were in the Downloader folder on the Onn box and not stored on a USB drive though.

Try downloading a wallpaper with Downloader and saving it directly on the Onn box instead of the USB drive.

I was reading up on projectivy on the xda forums and it does so much more if the box is rooted…quite amazing like killing persistant apps that google forces on boxes. I might give it a try on my ugoos since it has a root switch built in :+1: :skull_and_crossbones:

Has anyone tried the new update 4.3 yet? I wonder if this update allows for the accessibility and premium activations on the other devices.

Answered by own question. 4,30 is a nice update-got it using downloader… Can modify the app cards much better and even fill up the whole screen. Still limited on an Amazon product. No accessibility or premium features without a google play connection.

so far this is a great app and nearing Wolf Launcher

This was a good launcher when we were first introduced to it, but keeps getting better because of a good and very active developer. Wolf still rocks, but updates would be awesome on it to keep up with the times.

I think this is how i post a new post in this thread… correct me if i am wrong, please
my question is… in productivy launcher, when i click home on an onn box, it goes to the regular goofle tv screen not to the productivy menu… am i missing a setting? o want to click home and it go to productivy menu

accesibilty must be turned on for projectivy in android settings also in projectivy settings, general check over ride current launcher.

got both of those checked… and the productivy launcher button is on my menu… amd i can relaunch it from there, but if i am in an app and just hit home… it goes back to main google menu with ads

check all permissions, somethings missing. Give projectivy all access.

If you have downloader app type in 250931 (troypoint toolbox)
Then download Launch on boot…

I used the built in launch on boot within projectivy. Click gear at top right>>>projrctivy launcher settings>>>Power>>>Autostart on boot…and pick what you want.

I’ve installed Wolf Launcher and Launch Manager on 4-5 ONN devices. I’ve never had any problem…just make sure you load the one for android and not the one for firestick
