A new method for optimizing Android TV and Google TV performance has emerged, utilizing Large Language Models (LLMs) to streamline the user experience. Developer Mert Cobanov shared an approach where AI agents, such as Claude Code, are used via the Android Debug Bridge (ADB) to remove bloatware and advertisements that typically consume hardware resources.

This technique allows users to uninstall or disable unnecessary preinstalled applications and background services without requiring advanced technical expertise or root access. The process is described as simple and reversible.

In a practical application, Cobanov used Claude Code to optimize a four-year-old Android TV that had slowed significantly over time. By using the AI agent to disable non-essential services and install a new interface, the device's performance reportedly became smoother than when it was originally purchased, providing an alternative to buying new hardware.
