the sideload works just fine. However, once i published this beta app and added to my device, the app icon never show even though it was downloaded (when i did system udpate).
and interesting enought, in the roku mobile app i can see the app listed in the “open recent apps” section when the mobile app connected to this device.
have tried many different things for the last few hours, but none worked. can anyone give some idea? is there any log on the device that I can check what is going on?
turned out the issue likely was there wasn’t enough memory for the app to show up. I got a hint when I tried to open youtube tv channel on my ultra and there was. a message saying something like it’s time to have a micros SD card so that the app won’t need to be re-download (or something like that).
with that, I was thinking it could be an issue of running out of memory space (or internal storage). so I started removing a few apps and then my channel started showing up after a few removal. not sure how much the storage there is in ultra, but i have my HD version of the channel (published and added via vanity code), a sideloaded FHD channel (for development) plus the missing-now-re-appear published FSD channel.
It may have also been a delay in getting the asset deployed to the Roku cloud. We serve channel tile images separately from the channel package, and the first attempts to download might fail as we seed our CDN with files. Thanks for the report.
