Problems solved by technology

[0008] In order to solve the problems in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for applying Android widgets on smart TVs. This method first solves how to simulate the process of manually adding Android widgets by users, so as to realize Automatically load Android widgets; secondly, manage the automatically loaded Android widgets, including removal and subsequent loading; finally solve the problem that the internal and external focus cannot communicate with each other when using the remote control to operate on the smart TV

Embodiment

[0024] like figure 1 as shown, figure 1 Automatically add a flow chart for the Android widget of this embodiment, figure 1 It clearly shows the ComponentName issued by the cloud, the terminal searches through the ComponentName, and finally adds the process.

[0025] First, to realize the automatic addition of Android widgets (AppWidget), the ComponentName of the specified Android widget needs to be written by the terminal or delivered by the cloud. After that, the terminal application obtains the information of all Android widgets installed on the terminal through the getInstalledProviders method of AppWidgetManager. The information contains the ComponentName of the corresponding Android widget, traverses all the Android widgets, and compares its ComponentName with the ComponentName issued by the cloud. In contrast, if they are the same, follow the Android standard Android widget adding process to create the view of the Android widget. Finally, add the view of the Android w...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for applying an Android widget on television smart TV, wherein the method includes the following steps: assigning the ComponentName of the Android widget that needs tobe loaded by the cloud to the Smart TV home page as a terminal or writing directly to the home page by the terminal, performing transversal of the ComponentName of the installed Android widget on theterminal and comparing with the ComponentName distributed from the cloud, confirming whether the Android widget exists in the terminal, and if yes, adding the Android widget to the home page througha standard Android widget adding process; when removing of an already added Android widget is required, configuring the Android widget to be empty in the cloud and removing it through the Android widget removal process; searching the focus of the Android widget by recursively traversing the Android view hierachicallookup, which operates through the remote control of the smart TV. TV vendors can use this method to implement the smart TV with functional Android widgets, thereby providing convenient functions and rich presentation content to enhance the interaction experience of users.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of smart TVs, in particular to a method for applying Android widgets on smart TVs. Background technique [0002] Android widgets, namely AppWidgets, are provided by third-party applications and can be added to the desktop for display on the Android native system. Its internal logic is completely managed by third-party applications, and the native desktop only provides display. As an important special control, Android widgets are widely used on mobile phones because they can be displayed on the desktop, have a high exposure rate, and are easy to use. On the TV side, the homepage is customized by the manufacturer itself, so it is not possible to use native Android widgets to add functions. [0003] At present, the loading process of Android widgets on the mobile phone is as follows: the user triggers the addition of Android widgets on the homepage of the mobile phone, selects the Android widgets to be added,...
