that was the other mode, where you just tap “777” for R for example, T9 predictive had a dictionary to match the word so “weed” became 9333, instead of 933>33>3.

but would you want it flipped to suit the numpad layout? personally i’d be happy with flipping the whole numpad to a phone dialler layout.

I mean, you can technically remove the default launcher entirely via ADB if you want to.

if you run windows, you can use Android TV Tools to run the ADB commands for debloat and launcher control without having to type them out, but there are plenty of guides to do it via ADB manually.

on Shield TV I was able to just install projectivy and set it as the default launcher, never had an issue after that, but i still do some debloat to remove extra google and nvidia background tasks and trackers.
