Project Title: Senior Android TV / IPTV Developer for Custom Hardcoded App Job Description: We are looking for an expert Android TV / IPTV developer to build a custom, white-labeled, hardcoded IPTV application from scratch. This is NOT a generic media player task; the app must be strictly tied to our Xtream UI servers with high-level security protocols and a custom middleware panel. 1. Frontend & UI/UX Requirements (TV-Optimized): Design Inspiration: The UI architecture should be inspired by premium TV players (e.g., IBO Player layout) featuring large grid tiles, a clear side-menu, and distinct categories for Live TV, Movies, and Series. Navigation: 100% D-Pad navigation support (Android TV Leanback Library). It must be flawlessly usable with a standard TV remote control. Performance: Implementation of "Lazy Loading" for VOD posters to ensure smooth performance without RAM crashes on low-end devices like older FireSticks. 2. Backend, Security & Activation (Crucial): Hardcoded & Obfuscated: Our Xtream UI DNS/API must be hardcoded, encrypted, and heavily obfuscated to prevent reverse engineering or packet sniffing. Device Binding (Anti-Spoofing): Activation will be based on the user's MAC Address. However, to prevent MAC Spoofing, you must implement a "Hardware Fingerprint" (MAC Address + Android ID + Device Serial Number). If the MAC is cloned to another device, the server must reject it. 3. Middleware / Admin Panel: A lightweight web-based admin dashboard to manage users. Features: Activate/Deactivate devices via the Hardware Fingerprint, view active users, send on-screen messages to TVs, and a feature to "Remotely Update DNS" for all apps without pushing a new APK. Deliverables: Fully functional APK (Android TV / Mobile / FireStick compatible). The Middleware Web Panel. Full Source Code and documentation upon project completion. Screening Questions (Please answer to be considered): How do you plan to obfuscate the hardcoded DNS to prevent extraction? Explain briefly how you will implement the Device Fingerprint (Hardware Binding) in Android. Can you share screenshots or videos of previous Android TV UIs you have developed?

Good to see this project, I will deliver your hardcoded IPTV app with Xtream UI integration, D-Pad navigation via the Leanback Library, and the middleware admin panel for device activation and remote DNS updates. For obfuscation, I will layer ProGuard/R8 with native C++ storage of the encrypted DNS, plus certificate pinning to block packet sniffing. The Hardware Fingerprint will combine MAC, Android ID, and device serial into a salted hash stored server side, so a cloned MAC on a different device fails validation instantly. You will get a short update at the end of each day. Questions: 1) How many concurrent users should the middleware panel support at launch? 2) Do you have Figma mockups for the UI, or should I base the layout on the IBO Player style you referenced? Looking forward to your response. Best regards, Kamran

Hi there, I've reviewed the requirements for your custom IPTV ecosystem. The system will operate by having a native Android TV app that, upon its first run, generates a unique hardware fingerprint (MAC + Android ID + Serial). This fingerprint is sent to your custom middleware panel for admin approval. Once activated, the app fetches streams from the Xtream UI servers via a heavily obfuscated, hardcoded endpoint. The UI will use lazy loading for smooth performance on devices like FireSticks, while the backend validates the device fingerprint to prevent account sharing. Technical approach: - Frontend: Native Kotlin with the Android TV Leanback library for 100% D-Pad control. ExoPlayer for playback. - Security: ProGuard/R8 for obfuscation. The DNS will be encrypted, with the key stored in native C++ (NDK) to make extraction difficult. - Middleware: A lightweight Node.js or Laravel backend for the admin panel to manage device fingerprints and push remote DNS updates. Core modules: - Android TV App: Leanback UI, hardware fingerprint generation, secure API client for Xtream UI, and a background service to listen for remote DNS updates. - Admin Panel: Device activation/deactivation workflow, user list, an endpoint for the app to poll for DNS changes, and a module for on-screen messages. Relevant systems: CoreWipe (GrapheneOS Security App): We developed a security-focused Android app with remote wipe and device protection features, demonstrating experience with the required middleware control and device-level security.

Hi there, You need a custom Android TV/IPTV app and a small middleware panel, all tightly bound to your Xtream UI servers. I’ve built IPTV clients with Leanback/D-Pad navigation, per-client whitelabel UI, and performance fixes for low-end boxes (including lazy-loading of poster art to avoid RAM spikes). On the app side I’ll hardcode and obfuscate the DNS/API pieces (not just minify), and add runtime decryption with tamper checks so extraction is harder. For activation, the app will compute a hardware fingerprint using MAC + Android ID + device serial, then your server validates the fingerprint and rejects cloned MACs. On the backend I’ll build a lightweight web dashboard to manage users, toggle devices, send TV messages, and trigger remote DNS updates without releasing a new APK. I can start this week and deliver a first working APK + panel in 1-2 weeks. Slavko

✋ Hi there. I can build your custom hardcoded IPTV app with Xtream UI integration, hardware binding, and a lightweight admin panel. For DNS security, I will encrypt the hardcoded URL and split it across multiple obfuscated strings, storing them in native C++ code to make extraction harder. To implement device fingerprinting, I will combine MAC Address, Android ID, and Device Serial Number into a SHA-256 hash that the server validates during activation . For the TV-optimized UI, I will use the Leanback library for full D-Pad navigation and lazy loading for VOD posters . I will deliver the APK, middleware web panel for device management and remote DNS updates, and full source code.

Interesting project, We will build your hardcoded IPTV app (Live TV, Movies, Series) with Leanback navigation, plus the middleware admin panel for device management and remote DNS updates. For the fingerprint binding, we will hash MAC, Android ID, and device serial into a single token stored server side. On every launch the app recalculates and validates this hash. A cloned MAC on different hardware produces a mismatched token, so the server rejects it instantly. DNS strings will sit behind AES encryption with keys split across native C++ via the NDK, making static extraction extremely difficult. A couple of quick things to confirm: 1) Which Xtream UI version are you running, and do we have API docs for it? 2) Should the admin panel support multi-tenant access or a single operator login? Ready to start whenever you are. Faizan
