HTPC or Google TV. With Google TV you can at least ADB the shit away
Should be able to with Roku since they are also Android based. I've found a bunch of things to side load or modify any TV running on Android or based on Android.... Which only sucks because I was looking for that kind of stuff for my shit-ass Samsung TV which isn't Android based 😩
Roku is not android based, and doesn't have an accessible ADB interface or similar
Aren't .APKs only usable with Android systems? I've sideloaded .apks to my old Roku stick for things that weren't on the official app manager.
As far as I'm aware they can only be used on Android. I did a search for APK on Roku and I all found were some articles erroneously calling custom channels APKs. Roku does let you side load custom channels in developer mode, but you can remove software like you can on an android box, so you're always stuck with Roku's ad riddled home page and whatever injects ads into HDMI
