[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pilarek:
Any ideas? The earliest version of ARHD is 21 available on the web, but I need v19, because this is the last one based on Android 4.1.2, which I could use with n.e.a.k. kernel ( audio features ). I was looking everywhere with no luck. Maybe somebody know some old link, that is not dead yet, or maybe different custom rom to be recommended? Right now I'm using ARHD 23, but sound is sh...., my phone is Samsung Galaxy Note II N7100

[HTC One Mini] thequick:
So, I had rooted HTC One mini with unlocked bootloader, decided to update it to kit kat. Last update (autoupatde) I just change recovery to stock and worked. So my phone prompted me there is an update, I have downloaded, changed recovery to stock and applied update.

Now I have phone that would not load OS, just stuck on white HTC logo screen. I can get to recovery mode.

And it shows:

Tampered

Unlocked

Hboot is 2.21.0000

Radio - 1.22.40e.00.07

OpenDSP - v19.2.0268.0927

OS-2.12.401.1

e-MMC-boot 1024MB

I tried so far different bootloader and recovery images, no go. Can't flash firmware.zip - S-ON

Can anyone help?

EDIT:

Got it working back again. I managed to wipe the system somehow and used ODex image to install it again. Now all working fine.

Thanks again Mytohn

I was just in the Orange shop signing up for a Universal contract (long story). They'd just got their TyTNs in. One of you geeks must have been on the phone at the time, they were putting some behind the desk for reserves :)

It's a beautiful phone, not particularly attractively coloured IMHO (I don't like the two tone greys, would prefer a solid colour), but very good. It'll sell like Natalie Portman selling naked hot cakes - nice, but slightly mushy keyboard, good screen, all mod cons except GPS and VGA.

They were selling for £150 on > £25 contract, £245 on cheaper contracts etc. Good price, I'd love one... but the Mrs Vijay555 already has me on ebay duty clearing out my old rubbish.

[Shield Q&A] Bardok84:
Hi everyone

Frist of all, Im very happy to form part of this great community, I have ordered my Nvidia Shield from Amazon UK and I have looking into every detail of this console since several months..., at the end, I could buy it (it will with me this week or next monday the latest)

Well I could check , my Shield from amazon uk will be in Jelly Bean (4.2).., and as you know, being in 4.2 does not allow you to play streaming with Nvidia GRID, besides, you dont have the option to copy/pass android games (heavy games, such as nova 3 , with 3.5 GB, I mean the folder "Obb") to the Micro SD, nor the controller mapper..., a disaster.

So, I would really like to UPDATE from 4.2 to 4.3, Is it possible????, Regarding KITKAT..., nowadays it is not so good option since being in kitkat offers problems when you want to pass an Android game to the Micro SD..., some of games wont work if you do it.., and the 16 GB of the internal memory is not enough..., if you install 4 or 5 android games such as asphalt 8, modern combat 4, nova 3 or Tegra 4 games (Blood Sword , for instance) you wont have any free space in your internal memory of your shield...

Moreover, emulators offers some problems in Kitkat..., if you pass the roms to the Micro SD , again, the save states wont work..., so that, you are forced to move the roms to the internal memory..., a disaster.

When I have the Shield with me and I proceed to update the consola from 4.2..., will the shileld offer me to update to 4.3 first???? or it will offer me directly and exclusively the Kitkat update???, Someone told me that when you go to options in the console, the shield will offer me the several updates from the begining, in my case, being in 4.2, the 4.3 as the next step to update..., Is it true???

PLEASE, confirm me this because I dont really want to update to 4.4.2... for the reasons previously comented. I need 4.3.

THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH!!!
[Shield Q&A] rushless:
Same boat here since also on 4.2 out of box. My main focus for this great device is emulators and some Android games.

1. When you try to update, or if the OTA shows up on your device as downloaded, it is 4.4.2.

2. The only way you get 4.3 on is to unlock and root. Then you can manually install. Catch is you will have to start from scratch since unlocking clears storage.

3. Emulator games saves and settings do NOT work if you have your roms on the SD card, which is where most gamers would put them. Not exactly a lot of storage between roms and Android apps with internal. I have a 64GB card that has only 500mb free. It is loaded with roms for many systems.

Avoid 4.4 if your main focus is emulators, since it is fine with 4.2. The catch is I think you need 4.3 for some of the newer features like the game pad app. You can install the app with 4.2, but it does not show up for use.

The difference is significant in regards to 4.4. Most emulators stutter with 4.4, but are smooth with 4.2. I am guessing 4.3 is smooth, but I have not seen a Shield in direct action with emulators using 4.3. Only 4.2 and 4.4.

IMO, if Nvidia updates 4.4 to get rid of the game stutter, I would consider going through the process to unlock, root and then modify the write state to On for external storage. Google are pure rubes for changing the function for external storage and are not exactly sincere in their intent.
[Shield Q&A] Bardok84:
Well.., what a pity..., now... there is no hope.

To continue being in 4.2 for emulators is a good option..., notwithstanding, with 4.2 there is not Controller mapper, you CAN´T play to Nvidia GRID, neither you can PASS Android Games to the Micro SD CARD....

I dont have any idea to be root, its a very complex process for me (and my poor knowledge on this kind of modifications), so... what can I do??, to be waiting untilll Nvidia repairs these problems on Kitkat???? its a pity really...

The reasons why I NEED 4.3 are:

1) I need to have the original option (in the set up menu of the shield) in order to be able to pass apps and heavy Android games (such as modern combat 4) to the Micro SD, and in this way, to have more free space in the internal memory of the Shield. This option , at least I could undertand) is only available being in 4.3. In 4.2 there is not this option, and, in 4.4.2 this option to pass android games to the micro SD does not work well.., many users told that most games stop working if you use this option passing them to the Micro SD.

2) I need to have the roms in the Micro SD, some roms (Dreamcast or PSX) are so big, not enough for our 16GB internal storage of our Shields...

What a sad day..., Someone told me that , being in 4.2, in the moment I went to update my Shield , the console would show me the several updates from the beginning (so from 4.2 I would go to 4.3), NOW, as I told before, there is no hope.

What a bad day.

Thank you a lot for your answer, anyway.
[Shield Q&A] z28james:
I know its not optimal but I stuck all my roms inside of retroarch's writable directory on the SD card to allow it to function as normal. I suppose you could do the same with the other emulators as well.
[Shield Q&A] Bardok84:
Thanks for your replys, thanks a lot

So, Im thinking of updating to kitkat and then, unlock the bootloader and be root. After that , using FolderMount to copy everything to the Micro SD without any problem.

Anyway, I have several doubts...

1) Being in 4.2 , Could I use Nvidia GRID and play Nvidia streaming games on my Shield?? or, GRID only works on 4.3 and Kitkat exclusively?

2) If I update to KITKAT, is true that if I pass android games from internal memory to the Micro SD, those games wont work?? I read that passing android games to the micro sd, the games will be corrupted and they will stop working.

3) Imagine I update my Shield to 4.4.2 kitkat, in order to be able to pass android games to the micro SD, What I need?? (There is an app , as I could read, called "microsdFIX" or similar name that makes you to do it), or being Root and having the app "Folder Mount" would be enough??

Thanks you very much for your answers and information!!!
[Shield Q&A] CDeviant:
1. No idea sorry :o

2. Games will work just fine if you move them to the SD card, you don't need any other application to do it either. All you do is go into settings, Apps, select the app you want to move, and select Move to SD, that easy.

3. You have a small misunderstanding, Android 4.4 revoked SD permission for user apps, but the system (i.e. move to SD) can still write just fine.

So for example, you can move an app to the SD just fine in 4.4, but if you try to download something to the SD card, or move something over with an app you got from the play store, it will fail. But there's a way around this, and it's SDFix: KitKat Writable MicroSD I'll explain what it does.

The two apps you talked about do pretty different things.

SDFix: KitKat Writable MicroSD

All this app does is restore SD functions to how they were before 4.4, i.e full SD write access for all apps. This is essential for 4.4.2 on a rooted Shield.

FolderMount [ROOT]

Is a lot like what I explained in 2. (moving apps to SD) But it's actually nicer because it lets you move apps that the system normally would not, and it lets you choose where you want the linked data to be on the SD card. That's nice because the default system just makes countless files on the root of the SD card, with FolderMount you can choose to have all the files in just one folder, it's tidier. I would recommend sticking with the default system way of moving apps to the SD though, at least until you get familiar with things, this isn't exactly essential, so maybe hold off until you start running lower on space.

If you just want 4.3, you can use the Shield RAM tool to update/revert. It's a very simple process, and it's probably what you would use to unlock/root the device anyway.

If you need help with that, or anything else don't hesitate to ask! :highfive:
[Shield Q&A] Bardok84:
CDeviant...

ASTONISHING answer, really..., thanks a lot for your help, I feel so glad to be here.

Well, anyway..., in both cases: sdFIX and Folder Mount... I would need to be root, wouldn´t I??

.., Imagine. I have my Shield updated to 4.4.2 (not rooted) , I have bought Modern Combat 4 and I have it in the internal memory of my Shield. I dont have enough space so I decide to move this game to the Micro SD, (apk and Obb folder), So, Would I be able to to this ?? Im not rooted, I am just in kitkat..., if I go to set up options (aplications) I choose the game app, Could I move all the game to the Micro SD?? I dont think so...

There is a link, where you have a full article about what happen if you try to move an android game from internal memory to micro SD card..., they wont work..., I understood that at least.

Because of that, as you told me before, in this link they suggest to root the Shield and use the sdfix app. Or , as you told me, use foldermount which offers even more posibilities moving games and apps totally.

.... What would you recommend to me?, I thought to update to kitkat...and then, to try to be root..., I think that, nowadays, being kitkat without doing root does not make any sense.

Thank you very very much again, I am very grateful to you:good:
[Shield Q&A] CDeviant:
Yes, you need to be rooted to use FolderMount, and SDFix.

Not all games can be moved over, (it's up to the developer of the app) but yes you can. No root, or other apps needed.

Let me point out the 2 things that are separate, but I think you're confusing them together.

Moving apps to SD = Working and playable, Without root

Saving/creating a file on SD = Not working without SDFix - No SD Write access

So basically the only problems you're going to have is when you try to copy/create something (like music, movies, text files etc.) on the SD card, that's because android 4.4.2 KitKat can not write to SD. The only way around this is by rooting, and easily installing the SDFix app.

This does not effect the move to SD function in any way! That's because it's built into the Android system.

I would probably recommend updating to Android 4.4, and unlocking/rooting to gain back the SD write functions. This is the fastest and easiest solution to updating and keeping SD function.

Otherwise, I would actually recommend unlocking/rooting your Shield now, while it's on 4.2, and then use the Shield RAM tool to update to 4.3

That would take longer, you'll lose all your data, and be more complicated, but still a straightforward process. The reason I would recommend 4.3, is because of the better emulator performance, battery life, and no need to worry about the SD card.
[Shield Q&A] rushless:
Where can we get the 4.3 update to flash to the Shield?

As far as data, in either case you would lose your data, since the unlock process has to be done in order to root. Unlock process clears all data.

I would like 4.3, but have no need for 4.4. 90% of my focus is emulators and 10% Android games. IF there is an update that fixes the 4.4 issues pointed out by some devs (and alerted to Nvidia), I would

update to 4.4, root and then apply the sd fix. I still do not see the lure of playing PC games on a 5" display. I find Android games like MC4 and NOVA 3 too small on a 5" display. Can not enjoy the hi res effect visuals on the small display and also miss NPCs shooting at me. Display is too small IMO for PC gaming. JMO of course. Heck, I have a VP11 and find it sometime too small for playing Unreal Tournament and Quake games. That has a 1080p 10.6" display.

Thanks
[Shield Q&A] CDeviant:
The easiest way to install/flash 4.3 is with the Shield RAM tool. The files are inside the toolkit, and can be flashed manually from the bootloader if you wanted.
[Shield Q&A] rushless:
It would be cool if we could update that way without having to unlock and start from scratch. Since an official rom for the device, seems you should be able to go from 4.2 to 4.3 and be a normal process.
[Shield Q&A] Bardok84:
Take a look at this

Here we have the OFFICIAL DONWLOAD CENTER of NVIDIA, it offers all the updates:

Regarding the List, the UPDATE 63 is the Firmware 4.3 for shield (click of "read more" to see all the informacion of each update)

"Upgrade to latest Android 4.3 Jelly Bean OS"

You can download all you need for windows and linux as well. Reading the information of how to install it , because of my english level, I could not understand perfectly if you have to unock your shield or not..., I have doubts...

In my case, being in 4.2, Could I be able to install this firmware from this link without opening the bootloader of my shield??. Buf , im not sure about the process.

Reading the instructions..., it seems that there are 2 methods...,

"SW Method"

(shorter), and

"HW method"

(which implies to open the booloader)...., would I need to complete both methods?? which one is the best? using SW method without unlocking the booloader is enough????

PD: Shield battery life in Kitkat is worst than 4.3?? besides , if I update to 4.4.2 and Im Root, playing emulators continue worst experience than being in 4.3?..., WHAT A DISASTER KITKAT on Shiel really..., the only thing I need is just 4.3..., and, how many walls to break down to gain it....

Thanks you very much!!!!
[Shield Q&A] Zedjones:
I have my Shield rooted on 4.4.2, and I haven't noticed any lag in emulators although I only use My Boy! and Drastic. I also haven't seen any noticeable difference in battery life, but it varies from person to person. If you need help rooting, this guide is very in depth.

Bootloader - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Am5WYRojMs&hd=1&list=PLwCVKEYxr_z6zJpj1g1N0tpDLKTWJynSd

[Shield Q&A] Devhux:
When I got my Shield it had to do several updates before I was ready to go. Is this the same now or does the KitKat update install regardless of what other updates you had before?

I did get my Shield a month before KitKat came out so maybe it's different now.

Sent using radio waves of some sort
[Shield Q&A] rushless:
The newest update is usually what you get, regardless of current version. I have 4.2 and the newest 77 version of 4.4 is what would be loaded on mine. I stopped it and will stay with 4.2. Would like 4.3, but can not be bothered with starting from scratch again (currently set up juuust right). The reality is this device is an emulator station for me, so no real point in the effort.

I find games like MC4 and NOVA 3 too small on the 5" display, but PSP and PSX shooters are fine, since designed for a smaller display. I still do not see how folks find playing PC games on a 5" display appealing. Too tiny for me. :eek:
