There is scattered pieces of info arround reddit and even the dev, some tweet by himself had pasting the wrong link , side by side tvOS: , so the users where confused or installing (and getting errors of wrong ipas)
First things first , what is what:
This is the github repo of Trollstore-tvOS (as would someone googled) and "as i understand" its a forked version of opa's Trollstore for tvOS. It would not make something to a final user, as it's NOT a way to installation.
Misaka (for iOS ) : Is a jailed iOS app which through exploits like MDC, and KFD, can modify things in iOS. thats.
The same exploits applied on tvOS also..
Here comes the Misaka-tvOS which is the tool that we need to actually install the modified version of Trollstore-tvOS
Here we need to download the latest (as this time is v5.3)
- We get the latest Misaka-tvOS version. ipa file (v5.3)
- As we are talking for AppleTV 4k (without any ports) there is no way to sideload an app through windows (or at least i dont know any) so we only need a real Mac (or a hackint-ish), Xcode, an sideloadly (thats what i use most)
- Make sure you got paired your AppleTv ( just see this: ) we only need a pair, not an Xcode project.
- After that we can download Sideloadly:
- If we had done everything right, in the devices selector (first drop-down menu) our appletv should be pop up and selected. (sometimes we need to keep xcode devices open, and make sure appleTV is not in screensaver/sleep)
- After we drag the misaka-for-tvOS-v5.3.ipa on top left corner or click the icon, type you apple id in the appropriate field, and just click start!
- If you got an error GURU: mediation (it has a two opposite arrows in the bottom right corner, which opens a log) that means that the appleID that you are using to sign the ipa is not inside mac keychain. Just add it like here: Add Internet Account--> Icloud --> add your apple id
- After ALL this had gone right, you should end up with Misaka for tvOS ( a pink icon) on your AppleTV,
- We dont need to open it yet, just head up to the AppStore and search and download "Developer" app OR "test flight" app ( I used Developer app), and just open once, and close it
- Now we can finally open the Misaka for tvOS (pink icon) app, it will start initialize itself, logging some stuff, and the creators. The first button you will see is "kopen" and "setting" or "mdc mode" and "settting & install trollstore"
- IF your appleTV is on tvOS: 15.0 - 15.7.1, AND 16.0 - 16.1.2 , we ONLY need MDC to remember
- IF your appleTV is on tvOS: 15.7.2 - 15.8.1 AND 16.2 - 16.6.1 we ONLY need "kopen" to remember
- The MDC (that i also had) seems more tricky:
Click on "SETTINGS" button (left) ,
click up to go to MDC "button"
click it,
and then click again on close.
Now you gonna have left MDC MODE (unclickable) and right "Settings and Install TrollStore"
Click on "Settings and Install Trollstore" , head with click wheel on button "developer" OR "testfligt" (whatever you downloaded in step 9.), and click on that.
I think it prompt for some permission PWSIX_sandbox, just click ALLOW.
14. It should be doing itself things and downloading and installing TrollStore.
15. FOR KFD, ("kopen" button):
We only need to click on "kopen" button, it will log some things in terminal, and IF it will not crash (kernel panic) the button "settings" will be "INSTALL TROLLSTORE" just click it, and again select "developer" or "testflight" and click on it respectively.
16. I dont remeber if its prompmtig for a reboot. (if its do it, otherwise not)
17. Still we dont have trollstore, but we had patched the "Developer" or "testflight" app. so go ahead and OPEN it.
18. You gonna see Install TrollStore. and install persistenceHelper.
19. Click on install persistenceHelper and then install TrollStore.
20. Now its should prompt for a reboot and saying a message to re-install Mikasa-tvos again through TrollStore to achive OTAblocking (that's good but optional)
21. If you had done ALL things good, you should end up with a troll face blue icon (TrollStore) on screen
22. Open it. The only method i found is through URL. I WISH someone managed to find a way to transfer iPAs to appletv and accepted by trollstore.
23. The FINAL optional but good part is to remove the PINK icon Mikasa-tvOS (click on continusly and hit on appletv remote the Play/Pause button to delete it)
24. after that get your iphone/ipad/mac and use remote or just type the URL of latest released .iPA to the TrollStore up right icon for installing an ipa.
25. In this time is that: Just paste it and install it again throught TrollStore.
26. Inside Setting button you will see (after installation) and extra button OTAblocker (some like that) click on it.
YOU ARE DONE.
I found a lot guides:
not refering the Developer and Testflight requirement.
Google just giving TrollStore-TVos and
Not how to install and sideload the mikasa,
AppleTV is not as just a cable usb to sideload as easy as an iPhone. So i think this guide will help the 4-5 (haha) people who have still and ATV 4k and need TrollStore for kodi.
PS: I STILL NOT HAVE FOUND A WAY TO ACTUALLY INSTALL AND IPA. LIKE KODI, THATS NOT HOSTED SOMEWHERE ON THE INTERNET, if the straight-tamago Can somehow to implement a button for locating an ipa Inside TrollStore, or best to airdrop , through an iPhone it will be perfect.
