[SOLVED] Sideloading + Copying Files on Smart TV?

[Dylan Beckett]

Hello

I just want to do two things and I'm having real trouble finding the best way to do it that actually works.


1) Copy files onto the internal drive on my Sony Bravia X90H (also known as X900X, X9000H) (2020)

2) Sideload some APKs



1) I've tried plugging in my Ext HDD and a usb stick but I can't find anyway to copy files from that onto the internal drive.
I'm just talking about tiny apks so yeah I know the internal drive is small.

BTW I've installed apks on a phone before but not on a tv. However, that was using some app.

2) Most the apps i've seen on the play store on the tv sound like they don't really sideload at all, they just create a menu for you to list your sideloaded stuff so you can access them more easily - doesn't help me?


I'm trying to use APK Mirror app - but it will not let you access files on ext devices plugged in to the tv.

I have a Win 11 PC I can use if there is a program to send files - if anyone know one that still works and can also be installed on the tv?



Hope someone has some ideas


Thank you for your help
