    Perfect. It worked like a charm. I found the browser in another virtual device using the Android 3.1 Target: 1- Started the Android 3.1 device 2- Extracted the Browser.apk (adb pull /system/app/Browser.apk) 3- Shutted down the Android 3.1 device 4- Started the Google TV device 5- Installed the Browser.apk (adb install /system/app/Browser.apk) 6- Started to play Txs Commented Nov 23, 2011 at 12:43
  • Thanks for these instructions. Minor tweak is that step 5 should be: 'adb install Browser.apk'

  • Hi, where should I type in these commands? From the Linux terminal? Do I need to navigate to a certain folder?

    Keep mind, while this is a great tip that will allow the emulator to handle a VIEW intent to an HTTP URI (as the OP requested) the Browser app is NOT the same as the Chrome that comes on GTV. If you're doing other web stuff you might get different results. Commented Mar 19, 2012 at 18:51
