Apply the Hisense U75 debloat

Turn on Developer options on the TV (Settings → Device Preferences → About → press OK on Build seven times), switch on USB debugging and, if shown, Network or ADB debugging. Then, from a clone of the cleanyourtv repository on a computer on the same Wi-Fi:

export TV_HOST=192.168.1.50   # your TV's IP address
tools/venv/bin/python -I tools/tv.py --probe
tools/disable.sh examples/hisense-u75-hengshan/debloat.txt

Then build and install the clean launcher, which makes itself the default Home and rolls back if it fails:

TV_HOST=192.168.1.50 launcher/build-and-install.sh

Prefer to let an assistant do it? Paste the cleanyourtv prompt into Claude Code with "Hisense U75" as the model; it reads this list, checks each package on your TV and asks before anything that depends on your preferences.

Restore the Hisense U75

TV_HOST=192.168.1.50 tools/restore.sh examples/hisense-u75-hengshan/debloat.txt com.google.android.apps.tv.launcherx

The restore script replays the state recorded before the change, so Home goes back to the launcher that owned it. More in the restore guide and the Google TV debloat guide.

Hisense U75 debloat FAQ

Is it safe to debloat the Hisense U75?

The Hisense U75 list only uses pm disable-user, so nothing is uninstalled or flashed. Every package can be turned back on with the cleanyourtv restore script or from the TV's own Settings → Apps page. Apply it in small batches and check the TV between them.

How many packages does this Hisense U75 list disable?

22 packages, grouped as: Hisense ACR: automatic content recognition, the codePath is literally Vtp_ACR; Hisense content, preloads and promo surfaces; Retail demo, hotel/commercial mode, factory tools; Voice assistant, off by choice and more. Comment out any line you want to keep before running it.

Does the Hisense U75 list work on a similar model?

Often, if the platform matches. Compare the device codename and firmware in the list header with Settings → About on your TV. The cleanyourtv prompt also checks each package on your own set before touching it, so a near match is a good starting point.

Will the Hisense U75 get the Apple TV-style launcher?

Yes. After debloating, cleanyourtv builds its small native launcher (about 300 KB) and makes it the default Home, rolling back automatically if Home does not land on it.

How do I undo the Hisense U75 debloat?

Run TV_HOST=<tv ip> tools/restore.sh examples/hisense-u75-hengshan/debloat.txt com.google.android.apps.tv.launcherx. It replays the record saved before the change. Full steps are in the restore guide.
