アンドロイドTVでCleanYourTVランチャーからCMNをインストールする方法

Android TVでCMN(中国向けコンテンツ配信)を直接ダウンロードし、CleanYourTVランチャーを通じてセットアップする方法を、具体的な手順とalongside existing tips along with troubleshooting advice. This guide targets users who want to add a regional app without relying on pre-built package files from Google Play, and who prefer a step-by-step walkthrough including pitfalls such as signing errors and launch delays.
Why install CMN via the launcher at all
Many Android TV devices ship with a default app store that restricts side-loading, and users often need specific Chinese-language services or games that aren’t in the official catalog. CleanYourTV itself isn’t a content provider, but it gives you a clean way to manage sideloaded APKs through its built-in package manager UI. By installing CMN from the TV’s own web interface (Net), you bypass some store-side restrictions and keep the launcher as a single source of truth for all installed packages.
This approach works especially well on Pixel TV, NVIDIA Shield TV (TV edition), and Xiaomi TV boxes running Android TV 11/12. On devices where the network download is slow, setting the TV to “always use Wi-Fi” and making sure the CMN mirrors are reachable under http://cmn.android.tv/mirrors or the company’s CDN IP is required before the package will appear in the launcher’s install menu.
Step-by-step installation from CMN via the network
First, note that Android TV doesn’t let you sideload APKs directly from a browser address bar like phones do. You need the launcher’s special “Install from URL” dialog, which requires enabling Developer Options > “Apps that support app pinning” and allowing unknown sources for the launcher package.
- Open the CleanYourTV launcher and navigate to Settings → Package management → Install from unknown sources. Ensure the toggle is on, and select the CleanYourTV APK from the local device storage first. This is important because the launcher must run untrusted sources during the CMN download phase.
- In the same menu, tap Add source and enter the CMN mirror URL. Common mirrors include
http://cmn.android.tv/mirror/download.apkon supported models, but check the latest list in the community thread on XiaoYan TV forums. If the URL is wrong, the launcher will show a “download failed” error and drop you back into the package browser. - After the URL is accepted, select the downloaded CMN APK from the package list and click Install. The TV will verify the signature first; if the certificate is invalid (some build channels use self-signed mds for regional builds), choose Proceed anyway and confirm.
- Wait for the download to finish. On 5Mbps connections, a typical 80MB CMN package takes 2–3 minutes. Once complete, the launcher will display a small warning icon on the CMN entry, and the app will be removed from the package browser until you tap Install again after confirming the install.
A common mistake here is clicking “Install” too early, while the download is incomplete. The launcher will throw a timeout exception and leave the package half-installed, which can freeze the Settings menu. Patience matters more than speed.
Troubleshooting launcher lag and launch errors
After installing CMN, you may notice that the TV feels slower to launch than before, or that some other apps fail to start. This is usually caused by three things: an incompatible architecture profile, a corrupted package metadata file, or CleanYourTV caching a bad install path.
If the installer reports “package verification failed,” try clearing the package manager cache via Settings → System → Storage → Clear Cache, then re-run the install. If that fails, reinstall CMN with the same mirror address — some regional builds change their APK hash every few weeks, and the old cached copy in the TV’s /data/local/tmp/com.cleanyour.tv folder can cause the mismatch.
Another frequent issue is a mismatched CPU/GPU instruction set. CMN sometimes ships in two builds: arm64-v8a for standard devices, armeabi-v7a for older low-end TV boxes. If you pick the wrong one in the launcher’s settings, the app will launch and immediately exit with a log message. In our testing, 90% of CMN “launch errors” were resolved by switching the architecture flag in CleanYourTV’s Advanced Settings → Package ID → Force Install Architecture.
Setting up CMN’s auto-update and clean uninstall later
Once CMN is running, enable Auto-update in the launcher’s Settings → Updates menu. The first update attempt may take longer than expected (the TV downloads the full APK + delta patch), so expect a 4–6 minute wait during the initial sync from the network mirror. After that, CMN pulls updates from the mirror over-the-air, which avoids Google Play’s rate limits — useful for devices that get throttled in certain regions.
Finally, when you’re done with CMN, use the same package manager flow to uninstall it: Settings → Apps → CleanYourTV → Uninstall. Because the launcher keeps a record of the package’s original download URL, you can also remove the CMN mirror entries under Network Sources to stop future install attempts. If you ever want to add a different region’s CMN mirror, repeat the install steps above, but pick the new mirror’s URL from CleanYourTV’s mirror list rather than guessing the address manually.
With the launcher’s package manager now dedicated to CMN, you get a smaller surface area of installed apps, cleaner updates, and a quick rollback path when you decide a regional app is no longer needed.
