I have said it before, but you ROCK!

For anyone new to this, I use WinMD5 (http://www.winmd5.com/) to check the integrity of my downloaded ROMs. Takes just seconds to check and saves much grief.
[Shield Tablet General] Singularity_iOS:
The build number is "LRX21M.28311_475.5300"

As for the recovery I got it off this page: http://xdaforums.com/shield-tablet/development/wip-twrp-2-8-0-1-unofficial-t2877117

And Ill download the Xposed later, thanks for the info. I was trying to get it directly from the app.
[Shield Tablet General] MidgetMob:
So you're not wrong, you are supposedly on 2.0. I know after pushing OTA 2.0 to my tablet I had to do a factory restore to get everything working correctly. You might want to do that, or look into loading a recovery package. I suggest the latter.

In the comments on that thread, romracer posts v2.8.5.0. Not sure what the changes are besides the orientation fix, but you may want to try it before attempting any other fixes.
[Shield Tablet General] Singularity_iOS:
Do you mean from KitKat to Lollipop? My tablet was on Lollipop out of the box. And what do you mean loading a recovery package? Sorry, im really nooby with all the technical stuff. Also would a factory restore probably be the best? Because I experience major lag after the tablet goes into deep sleep and when using Chrome. Is that a issue with Lollipop, or it just not working properly.
[Shield Tablet General] koop1955:
Is your Shield LTE or Wi-Fi?
[Shield Tablet General] MidgetMob:
Yes, that is what I mean. You obviously didn't do the upgrade, but clearly OTA 2.0 was the last thing to be loaded onto your device.

Recovery package is what I call Nvidia's recovery images. It's part of the initial post for this thread, but basically you use fastboot to flash every partition for your device. This would allow you to flash a complete version of 2.2.1 without having to go through any upgrading. I find it to be cleaner than OTA side loading.

The lag issue was definitely prevalent in the initial release of 5.0 for the SHIELD Tablet. It seems to be mostly resolved in more recent versions though. So really your goal is to upgrade, which doing a factory restore might allow you to do.
[Shield Tablet General] Singularity_iOS:
So I just download the recovery img, flash it using the instructions on the first page, then install 2.2.1 full OTA?
[Shield Tablet General] MidgetMob:
Yup, all you have to do is download the zip, follow the instructions, and you'll be on 2.2.1. No need to install any OTAs.
[Shield Tablet General] Singularity_iOS:
Ok im going to do that later today once the download is finished. Thanks for all the help, but I have just one more question. How do I go about future updates? Or should flashing the Incrementals work after what i'm going to do later?
[Shield Tablet General] trixt:
tis solution will likely to work but it will be pain for those that had be using the tab for quite some time.. is there no other way?
[Shield Tablet General] Singularity_iOS:
I dont know if there is, but the way I see it, just backup your apps using Titanium Backup, then reinstall them and their data after you flash it.
[Shield Tablet General] MidgetMob:
If you're rooted I'm not sure about the incremental, but the full OTAs should work. If you're not rooted then incrementals won't be a problem.

I'm a little confused by your question as I'm not sure what you mean by tab, but I think I can answer you by saying that the main reason Singularity needs to do this is because TWRP is reporting the wrong android version. This error does not generally show up but I believe that flashing the recovery images will fix it.
[Shield Tablet General] nodiaque:
How much time should it take for the update to be applied? Mine is applying the update in twrp 3.2 for that last 4 hours.

Rooted k1 full ota
[Shield Tablet General] gqukyo:
Something's wrong then, you can try to power it off and then on though you risk losing data so do it at your own peril. I doubt anything catastrophic would occur, worst case you won't be able to boot into rom or boot loops. If so, you'll just have to flash everything.
[Shield Tablet General] nodiaque:
I tried 5 times and always did that. I managed to make it work by sideloading the update instead. Weird thing is, the sideloading finished at 49% and said successful. But since it was installing at the sametime, I think it updated what was needed and skipped the rest.
[Shield Tablet General] Isira:
Here is the Full 4.3 LTE-RoW OTA image pulled from my device.

i always get an error something like error7 doing incremental mode using sideload or twrp. i had to use the full zip by twrp to install the 4.3 version :s
[Shield Tablet General] MidgetMob:
Are you rooted?
[Shield Tablet General] goncalo16:
yes
[Shield Tablet General] MidgetMob:
Alright, so that's why lol. Incremental updates don't like rooted devices but full otas don't care.
[Shield Tablet General] goncalo16:
Ok, thx bro. I didnt know that!

[Shield Tablet General] Toonlinkmaster25:
I'm on 4.1 right now. Can I just flash the incremental updates until I'm on 4.3? Would I need to wipe?
[Shield Tablet General] MidgetMob:
You can flash the newest OTA via TWRP or another custom recovery.
[Shield Tablet General] Toonlinkmaster25:
Will I need to re-root or wipe data?
[Shield Tablet General] drewski_1:
Wipe data, No.

Re-root, Yes.

At least that worked for me :cool:

hi I want to know what is the first step to do with the dead tablet..
[Shield Tablet General] undrwater:

This latest full OTA did not replace my recovery, just boot & system
[Shield Tablet General] HumbertoC:
Hi guys.

Got a BIG problem, but it seems that I'm not alone in this:

Shield running Stock Lollipop, rooted and with TWRP. Flashed the full OTA LTE RoW 4.3, finished, came the question to flash SuperSU, did it.

After restart it got stuck on NVidia Logo:(

Tried to go into recovery mode and this shows:

[nvtboot] (version UNDEF_BUILD)

[bootloader] (version UNDEF_BUILD)

Device - Locked

serial number

press power up and down etc

continue

fastboot protocol

recovery mode

reboot

power off

Read in another post (worked for others, thank to MADASAHAT!!!) that it is necessary some other file to be flashed that isn't present in that OTA package, called

tegra124-tn8-p1761-1270-a04-e-battery.dtb

and after do a flash-all.bat.

Hope i'll be able to connect it and get it recognized via ADB so I can get it running again!

In case anyone has a better solution, let me know, please, all the help is welcome!
[Shield Tablet General] MidgetMob:
4.3 recovery images posted (RoW and WiFi)

That's way back from when the 3.0 OTA was released. Interesting that a 14 month old issue is occurring again. What OTA version or Android version were you upgrading from?
[Shield Tablet General] HumbertoC:
Lollipop 5.1.1 I believe...Gonna try right now to flash the other file I mentioned. Fingers crossed. Will update later! Txs for showing interest! Any suggestions to what version is more likely to sucessfully run on Shield LTE RoW? Wanted Marshmallow, but will be more then satisfied with returning to LL.

Update: Got it recognized by win 10, biggest struggle (went back and forth and decided to uninstall device controller and it got the proper drivers on its own:)), then I installed Minimal ADB and Fastboot.

The flash-all.bat didn´t work, neither the file I mentioned above, so I followed the procedure shown in Nvidia instructions, flash every item one by one, but it didn't do anything (so I thought).

Rebooted the Shield but nothing happened either:(

After a few seconds I pressed continue on the screen and it started optimizing apps:P

IT'S ALIIIVE!!!!!!!!!!Thanks to everyone that contributed to the solution of my issue!
[Shield Tablet General] HumbertoC:
Hi again. Unfortunately, after setting everything up, finished installing some apps I use, got this super quick notification that an updat ewas going to be installed, then the screen went black and something got installed, but after a few seconds, black screen. Can't reboot to anything, conecting it to the computer it shows as APX device... Any ideas???

Thanks in advance for all the help you can give me.

EDIT: Fell stupid with this situation, because I could and should have flashed Lollipop again, might be working right now and not "killed" by Nvidia (hope I'm wrong).

Any help will be a blessing!
[Shield Tablet General] lafester:
Sure sounds like its been killed.
[Shield Tablet General] MidgetMob:
Honestly if it's not booting to anything then it sounds like it's been killed. If you can't get it to boot to the bootloader then I'm afraid I can't help you.
[Shield Tablet General] HumbertoC:
Thanks for being honest and direct about this...It sucks because the minutes I was able to mess around marshmallow got me really satisfied... Now it's at a shop for an attempt to ressurect it. If it doesn't stick they're gonna try to jtag it. Will keep you posted. Just want Lollipop back, right now:(

running rowlte shieldMM rooted twrp 3.0.2.2 bit o kx6-01 kernel ..i cannot flash LTE4.3 directly .have to do 4.2 first ..correct ?
[Shield Tablet General] drewski_1:
full OTA should be fine.

incremental would need specific version.
[Shield Tablet General] Wolf2231:
Hi. I really don't know much. I'm on 5.1.1 rooted and twrp.

I want to get the latest Software update. I'd prefer a clean stock ROM. The latest Available official ROM.

My tablet is the original. WiFi only.
[Shield Tablet General] MidgetMob:
Downloads and guides are available in the original post of this thread. Take a look there and if you have any questions feel free to ask. Seeing as you're rooted, I'd recommend looking at the OTA flashing section.
[Shield Tablet General] Wolf2231:
Well. That's the problem. I don't know if I should install the 4.3 recovery image or OTA Full or incremental.

I assume my tablet is on 3.1.1 . So it's fine to just get the 4.3 update straight without going through OTAs in between. I really have no idea. I'm just guessing from no background info. I just need help with the fastest and easiest way to get the latest update on my tablet without going through wifi updates. It is a recall device I can't do it through wifi.
[Shield Tablet General] Wolf2231:
Umm. I have some updates. My tablet got stuck on the Nvidia Logo. I think because I wiped every thing from the option wipe>advanced in TWRP.

Now it doesnt boot to the OS neither Recovery( TWRP ). Any ideas! :( :crying:
[Shield Tablet General] HumbertoC:
Have you tried to boot to recovery (vol down and power)? If it works, boot to recovery and try this:

Use an OTG cable, with a USB pendrive and you can move files to internal memory and flash with TWRP normally.

You need to use the mount option to setup the USB drive and then go to advanced and file manager to move the files where you want (SD Card)...

Or you can just use an sd card to do the process above or just flash directly from card...Maybe the easiest solution...;)

Good luck
[Shield Tablet General] Spiteful Monkey:
Any chance to nab the full US LTE 4.3 yet?
[Shield Tablet General] MidgetMob:
Well I think the only option you have now is to flash a recovery image. You may be able to get away with using only a full OTA but I cannot confirm that.

Hi guys, any news about a flashable zip for the new 4.4 update (LTE RoW in my case :) )?
[Shield Tablet General] MidgetMob:

4.3 incremental and full OTAs added for US LTE

There are no full OTAs for 4.4 yet
[Shield Tablet General] stunned2:
MidgetMob,

I can't get the incremental to work. TWRP recovery says I have 700 keys when my build is 766 to upgrade to 4.4 on Wifi incremental.
[Shield Tablet General] Adrixan:
I have a similar problem with the LTE RoW version only that mine says its on a way older android version. Any ideas on how to fix this?

I've already tried reflashing the 4.3 recovery image and also going back to stock recovery, doesn't work. :(

EDIT: For me it reports 40827_700.6895 despite being on 4.3 while it requires 49349_766.5399
[Shield Tablet General] stunned2:
I always just to the full instead of the incremental. This is the first time I've tried the incremental upgrade.
[Shield Tablet General] simonsy:
Hi, i've the same problem with fingerprint detection. How we could fix this in order to proceed with the flash of the OTA?

Thanks in andavance
[Shield Tablet General] drewski_1:
You have a variant with a fingerprint sensor? :silly:

I'm rooted with Xposed so patiently wait for the Full OTA which doesn't check for certain versions installed
[Shield Tablet General] MidgetMob:
That's weird, that's the version number for 4.1.

I'm not sure what's up with it but I can confirm it works with unrooted tablets as mine took the update just fine. As [MENTION=3898281]stunned2[/MENTION] said, I'd just wait for the full OTA to be released.
[Shield Tablet General] simonsy:
[emoji18] Obviously no, I'm referring to the system version fingerprint.

[Shield Tablet General] Adrixan:
I know, strange thing is that even flashing the recovery image (except for userdata) didn't fix it
[Shield Tablet General] kingmercian:
For those of you having issues with the 4.3 --> 4.4 OTAs I have modified them so that they install regardless of build fingerprint etc.

I think that the build.prop or at least the fingerprint is copied to a separate partition that is only updated when an OTA is installed, for example as in my case I was on build 4.1 then fastboot flashed to build 4.3 (inc userdata) then attempted to flash the OTA to build 4.4 which resulted in the complaint of the 4.1 build.prop.

Another way around the issue is to flash to the build that it states your fingerprint is (for example 4.1 or 4.2) then accept all the OTAs from system updates.

As I have =<10 posts I cannot post links but I am sure you'll figure it out, these are completely unmodified apart from the install script which now skips some checks.

4.3 --> 4.4 ONLY

LTE (RoW)

I'm after you install the .zip file is not loaded tablet, reboots to TWRP.
[Shield Tablet General] kingmercian:
I am unsure how you did this as this is a stock OTA, are you sure you flashed the correct version? Did you install anything extra or just the OTA? Did your system already have any modification done to it such as SuperSU etc?

EDIT: I would also like to know which variant you have, wifi or LTE?
[Shield Tablet General] gafar65:
Yes, I have the LTE ROW version, firmware 4.3, rooted and recovery TWRP. I booted into TWRP and installed the zip file with your update 4.4, and the tablet is not loaded. He became the only boot into recovery TWRP, then I flashed full OTA 4.3 .zip and tablet loaded.
[Shield Tablet General] kingmercian:
Right I think I know the issue then, could you try flashing this and let me know if it boots?

Make a backup first!
[Shield Tablet General] stunned2:
I'm sorry kingmercian but your Wifi incremental didn't work for me. It just booted back into TWRP. I flashed back to 766 and am just going to wait for the full 4.4 from MidgetMob.
[Shield Tablet General] kingmercian:
That's no problem, I think it is the same issue [MENTION=2976495]gafar65[/MENTION] is having and I think it is to do with SuperSU.

If you get chance could you quickly flash this zip?

androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862678647
[Shield Tablet General] stunned2:
Gave it a go and same thing happened. Booted back into TWRP.
[Shield Tablet General] kingmercian:
Thanks, strange it seems to only work on a fresh build then :/ the only time I have been able to replicate this is flashing SR3_SuperSU.
[Shield Tablet General] GuyInDogSuit:
Any chance you could reupload the ROW LTE 4.4 OTA?
[Shield Tablet General] stunned2:

Any ETA on full OTA updates to 4.4 latest? I'm kinda concerned about CVE-2016-5195 that is patched in the latest Nvidia OTA.

Just Curious :)

Absolutely no idea when the full 4.4 OTAs will be released. I just checked again and 4.3 is still the newest full OTA.

I can confirm the link for the original Wi-Fi Shield, but you'll have to wait for someone else to confirm that it's correct for the original US LTE model if you don't want to risk it yourself as I don't have the LTE model.

Is there a difference between the Full update downloaded via the tablet and the zip files later released by Nvidia? Or are they just the same file but renamed?

Can I just let the Ota download the full update and flash it via twrp to keep root?
[Shield Tablet General] gqukyo:
If you flash in TWRP, you might as well just flash SuperSU or whatever root you want to use.

---------- Post added at 07:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:26 PM ----------

Does anyone have the RoW 5.0 full OTA yet?
[Shield Tablet General] rwilco12:
OTA hit my OG Shield Tablet yesterday. Just for kicks and giggles, I let it download and flash. Surprisingly it auto-flashed on my rooted Tablet via TWRP. It did, however, remove root and overwrote TWRP with stock recovery. You'll need to reflash TWRP and re-root after taking the update.
[Shield Tablet General] GuyInDogSuit:
Non-K1 tablet? WiFi or LTE? RoW or USA? Mine still hasn't gotten it.
[Shield Tablet General] rwilco12:
Original Tablet, not K1. And Wi-Fi, not LTE. LTE isn't coming out for a bit because it still needs to get carrier certification.

Also, it's a phased rollout so it won't hit everyone all at once.
[Shield Tablet General] GuyInDogSuit:
Knowing our luck, it will be another month....
[Shield Tablet General] will3k14:
I can only hope its within the Month for LTE. Also, will wait to flash recall one until its safe as its been working great so far.
[Shield Tablet General] gqukyo:
Whoever gets the RoW LTE full update, please do share lol
[Shield Tablet General] SJMarty:
Hopefully someone has been through this already...

I'm running v6.0.1 on my new Shield K1. I've tried to root unsuccessfully several times. I get TWRP flashed OK and can boot to Recovery without any issue. After I install SuperSU (System-Mode) from Recovery and reboot, each time I end up stuck at the "NVIDIA - Powered by Android" boot screen. I have to restore back to the factory image and then try again. I suspect that it's possibly something with the version of SuperSU I am using - v2.79 SR3 but I really don't know what the problem is.

For those that have successfully rooted, what version(s) of SuperSU have worked?
[Shield Tablet General] GuyInDogSuit:
Try a non-systemless root version.
[Shield Tablet General] SJMarty:
Does System-Mode not work on the K1?
[Shield Tablet General] GuyInDogSuit:
It should but it could be the version you're using.

Anyone get it yet?
