Where the ads on this model come from
Built from the packages this firmware actually ships. Each one is listed below with its own risk rating.
-
Home-screen recommendation rows
Sponsored tiles are drawn by the launcher or its recommendations service rather than by a separate ad app, so removing the rows means replacing or disabling the launcher.
com.google.android.apps.tv.launcherx
-
Vendor content apps and ad-funded channels
These vendor apps carry their own promotion rails and free ad-supported channels, and they keep advertising after the home screen is replaced because they do not depend on the launcher.

-
Viewing telemetry and device identifiers
Viewing habits, automatic content recognition and device identifiers are reported by dedicated vendor and Google packages. Disabling them stops the reporting without affecting playback.
com.miui.tv.analytics · com.xiaomi.statistic · com.google.android.feedback · com.android.tv.feedbackconsent
-
Retail demo and partner installs
Exhibition and hotel modes loop promotional content and override normal startup on demo units, while partner configuration packages reinstall promoted apps after setup.
