Did everything you said and this worked perfectly for the first two days

thanks for all the work you put in for us to have a more responsive and reliable device , i really appreciate that

After doing all the steps listed and eating all the cookies , apparently after flashing the Custom Kernel (BitO-KS-033-OTA3.0) at times when i want to reboot the device , it would power down but upon turning back on it would be stuck at the Nvdia boot logo , and holding the power button to force shut it down and trying to turn it on again , the same result would happen

Only after like repeating the process 15 times the tablet would finally show the optimizing apps thingy to show that it would power on sucessfully (apparently force powering it off in Android 5.1 , it deletes cache and dalvik cache so the optimizing apps thing would start and take a long time to complete)

do you have any idea what would be causing the problem ? My bootloader is unlocked , latest TWRP version installed , Latest xposed 5.1 lollipop zip flashed

and the only other problem i had is that Viper4android , the driver would install and i'd reboot the device but no changes would occur (SeLinux mode set to Permissive)

Sigh hope i dont sound like a noob
[Shield Tablet General] Pariahnoble:
Hey thanks for the thanks!

That happens at times with ks33. It's actually why I held off on it for a sec. But ks34 just came out. Get that, check ur md5, and flash it, wipe dalvik and cache. Profit. Ks34 is miles better.

Make sure, that before you flash the new kernel. Go to viper and click uninstall driver. Then reboot to recovery. Flash the kernel, (on bito kernels, selinux is always permissive, it's one of the optimizations in the kernel, so selinux changer isn't necessary anymore) wipe cache and dalvik. Reboot

Then go back to viper and it should automagically install the driver. Reboot. Profit

And no worries on the noob thing. We all were at one time. All questions are welcome.
[Shield Tablet General] supertory:
Thannks hopefully , this will fix the issues im having , but

Whats that md5 thing you mentioned and how am i supposed to do it ? Dont worry i looked it up and they matched , gonna flash now
[Shield Tablet General] Heartspan:
All good, with minor issues

Hello, and firstly, thank you for this! This whole setup worked for me (wifi model), although with minor issues, but I have resolved them as of now. Those issues are:

1. Slow Google Play download (surfing and ddl at normal speeds though)

2. Usb otg (the one you poined out)

And what I did:

1. Cleared data and uninstalled updates for both google play and google play services, then downloaded and installed the latest versions for both (note: you must get the version of google play services compatible with your model). Reboot then enjoy the downloads.

* also regarding wifi, I left the freq to automatic instead of 2.4ghz, since 5.0ghz magically doesn't work for me :(

2. What I did was to both charge and attach a usb using the y-cable even if the otg is not yet recognized, rebooted my tab while attached to both usb and charger, then boom, both of them worked as it should! Only gripe here is that you need the ycable.

** Also, I didn't delete the musicfx in twrp, coz i think it has an effect to others losing audio. What I did was simply disable musicfx in settings, then proceeded with your viperaudio setup. All good from there!

So far, no issues beside those two. And again, thank you for your work! Rooted, xposed, updated, and ready to make a fool out of other tabs (y)

So I'm finally using my shield tab for gaming. I'm playing portal and I'm sending the image to my TV through HDMI. The problem I'm having is that when putting the tab in "console mode" the tablet screen is supposed to turn off and only send video through the HDMI but my tab screen is not turning off, its showing image in both screens. Anyone else having this issue? I followed this guide completely except for the viper4android it didn't work for me, but using the Bit0 kernel. Tia!!
[Shield Tablet General] YuriPan:
Hello. Thanks for sharing this, it seems like quite the trick for fixing USB OTG... I have two questions though cause I wanna try and see if it works for me. 1) when you reboot with the y cable with both charger and USB plugged in, if you unplug either afterwards does usb or charging continue to work? 2) does this keep working after rebooting again or do you have to repeat the process? 3) (and please don't laugh...) what does a y cable look like? Could you send a picture? I'm pretty sure I don't have one but if I go searching for one (to order from eBay or whatever) I'd rather not make a mistake.

---------- Post added at 11:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:21 PM ----------

A random idea I had about the USB OTG issue... Is it an issue of the stock kernel? I mean that if I flash for example bit-o-k's kernel could it be fixed and not need the reboot-with-usb-plugged-in trick to work?
[Shield Tablet General] Pariahnoble:
Ota 3.0 got pulled by nvidia due to quite a number of issues. Damage to speakers, sound fails (though I think I avoid these using viper, but I could just be one of the "lucky ones") and the USB otg bug. So it looks like we are waiting for yet ANOTHER UPDATE. Way to go nvidia!

[MENTION=952162]eurominican[/MENTION] I haven't had that one yet. Hdmi has worked pretty good for me so far. Even through a Hdmi to rca adapter lol. Could be a bad download.... There's never been an md5 to check and they pulled the update otherwise I'd upload my own to be sure they r perfect for everybody. Might wanna try refreshing (yeah I know it's a pain...) only thing I could think of. Bito has a new kernel update. Try that, ksx35 is the build u want for ota 3. Wipe cache and dalvik. See if that clears up the Hdmi issue.

[MENTION=6757001]Heartspan[/MENTION] what u describe is as far is I've found the only "official" workaround for the USB otg issue. But doing that should make the shield not charge until reboot without the otg attached.

[MENTION=5582377]YuriPan[/MENTION] bitok might indeed help.

And for every one. I'm gonna be updating the op today at some point, so check back for some tweaks to the procedure. I found that deleting the folders in system/app that had libraries still in them breaks a few things. So I'll update which ones to leave. Deleting the apk from the folder still works. But for a few apps, (video, YouTube.) I'm pulling from the op. I found, say clicking the play video thing in play store on certain apps (the ones with trailers) it needed something out of those libraries. I'd get a few seconds of video and it would stop. Same in Chrome beta. So I went and left all the libs and tried again and it works now.
[Shield Tablet General] eurominican:
Thank you for heads up and all your help!!!
[Shield Tablet General] Pariahnoble:
Whoops in my last post I mentioned bito k ksx35. That was wrong. The newest is now ksx40
[Shield Tablet General] eurominican:
Dont know exactly what caused console mode not to work but i started over from zero, formated everything except sdcard and flashed ota and works now!
[Shield Tablet General] Pariahnoble:
Excellent! Yeah sometimes you get a bad flash or download. Not sure what causes that. I've had times after a flash I couldn't connect to wifi, play service crash, phone process crashing,random reboots. Once in a while I have to flash something twice. Glad it's working now.
[Shield Tablet General] YuriPan:
When did ota 3 get pulled? I hadn't realized, the only thread regarding the ota I was following was this!

I deleted the apk and library for YouTube but the videos worked alright for me from what I've seen. Not that I've watched too many trailers from the Play Store. Might have simply been lucky
[Shield Tablet General] Pariahnoble:
Been pulled for at least a week I think, thats about when I saw it mentioned anyway. I guess even if your on 2.2.1 it won't say there is an update for 3.0 anymore. I just wish nvidia would quit with the rushing updates. I'd rather STILL be waiting for 3.0 rather than get all this buggy crap, this is 2 updates in a row that were so bad they required hot fixes. I've never used this on kitkat, but I guess it was actually good then. I've really been upset with this device. It's the best one I've ever owned but also the only one that hasn't ever worked right. It always seems to be SOMETHING wrong with this thing. At least on a custom rom everything works, so long as console mode and nvidia controllers aren't important.

As for the video thing. YouTube itself played just fine, but any website that had a YouTube inbeded video would stop playing after a few seconds. I even had some issues with Facebook videos as well. Could have been something else but I haven't had the problem since I left the libs in.
[Shield Tablet General] Pariahnoble:
Furthermore, I still can't figure out what nvidia did on these things, but I've seen MAJOR inconsistencies on this thing. Like only SOME people have speaker issues, some don't, some have wifi issues, again some don't. Wtf? How can this many disparate issues all come from the same devices? The issues should be universal on all these damned things. It's like they have over time used different chips and such at different times for the same devices. Like when the shield tablet came out and the first batches had bad cracking and screen issues. They said it was fixed and seems to be, but it looks like they changed OTHER internal parts when they fixed the next batch. Dunno. SHENANIGANS I SAYS!
[Shield Tablet General] eurominican:
Bit-0 kernel botches console mode for me... 32gb lte model
[Shield Tablet General] Pariahnoble:
Did you wipe cache and dalvik after you flashed the kernel?
[Shield Tablet General] eurominican:
Yes, always. I know its the kernel because i did nandroid backup with console mode working before installing the kernel. Ill post in the kernel thread. Honestly, stock kernel is working super smooth for me now after starting over fresh. Looking into Bit0 mainly for the extra battery life.
[Shield Tablet General] Pariahnoble:
For battery I usually run at 1.8ghz. 400mhz below stock. With bito kernels is so optimized I barely notice.
[Shield Tablet General] YuriPan:
I dunno, I hadn't come across another bad update, when I bought my shield 2 and 2.1 or whatever it was called were both already out and I flashed them one after another so I have no clue. Well, custom roms weren't for me, whatever extra I wanted were things that Gravitybox can do, so I'm good.

I'll try the YouTube thing. Not that it matters much to me though, it's been pretty smooth for me other than the USB otg thing so I wouldn't bother flashing everything all over again and going through all the optimizations just for that. Out of curiosity though... If someone went and copied the lib file from their tablet and I took that copy and pasted it in my device, would it fix the issue? Like, to fix it if I want but get away without doing it all from scratch.

---------- Post added at 08:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:51 PM ----------

Well yes, it is a fact. I did have wifi issues too. IT IS DEFINITELY TRUE that if you hold your tablet in portrait mode with the front camera facing up you have one "line" less signal than if you hold it with the camera down; I asked customer support and they said that this is normal because the wifi antenna is near the stylus so when you hold it camera-up your hand covers the antenna. Claimed it didn't lessen the speed though. Can't tell really, but this is bull, my KFHD never had such issues and it's a 3 year old tablet. Of course it's not fast anymore, but it has an incredibly strong wifi antenna (also dual band and it was never in need of optimizations to have better signal or whatever).

My first Shield might have also been in the batch that had the tendency to crack, I bought it from Greece and it might have been in the shop since the devices first came out, I don't know, but once I dropped it (and it was in a hard case INSIDE my bag) the corner cracked and I pushed it back together. It seemed somewhat weird but anyway I had my device replaced in March or April so it doesn't matter. But really, it's like they're changing a little something with each batch, I believe that too.

And something else... when you're with your Shield in a quiet room, doesn't it make a noise...? Like it's the processor or something, a little tsk tsk tsk? I told customer service and they said it didn't sound normal and that was why they told me to ship it back to send me a new one but the new one did it out of the box, so I suppose it's a Shield thing. It doesn't do it all the time, only sometimes... But I can't be crazy. I've never heard any other tablet make that sound.
[Shield Tablet General] Pariahnoble:
[MENTION=5582377]YuriPan[/MENTION] the bad update thing i refer to is the fact that nvidia released the 2.2 update then 2 weeks later had to release the 2.2.1 hotfix cause they screwed up color reproduction (colors appeared washed out) and now they pulled 3.0 and looks like we "patiently" await a 3.1 hotfix to repair the speaker damage, otg bug, app optimizing every boot (but it looks like i fixed that). it would certainly be nice if they finished what they start. id rather still be waiting for this update than get a buggy release i have to fix for them. as soon as [MENTION=1416222]Steel01[/MENTION] gets console mode and nvidia controller support ported over to cm12.1 im DONE with stock nvidia roms. hell as soon as Console mode is done im gone. i dont have a way to pay for a 60 dollar controller for my android only. then more to get the nifty clip that holds the tablet attached to the controller. i love my ipega 9023, turns my tablet into a MANS psp lol

yes you should be safe just copying the lib files over. possible error due to permissions. i have no clue what chmod the libs should be. most likely read only.

DEAR GODS YOU HEAR IT TOO!!!! i thought i was going nuts..... or i broke something throwing it. i will say this. the shield tablet is about the toughest device ive ever had. ive punched, headbutt and thrown this thingmore than a couple times. once hard enough to rip the back clean off and break the stylus. (thats how i found out about the letters on the back being stickers, that and the little bit of goo that started coming out of the cracks after a week. the glue was getting hot. eventually all the letters will fall out on all these. just a matter of time before all the glue leaks out around the edges lol) but this thing is still in great shape. screen is perfect still. and i have no case...
[Shield Tablet General] YuriPan:
Yeah I supposed that's what you meant but didn't remember the update numbers, I only remember the update numbers in the Kindle Fire series cause I stuck with it the longest and the Android version I'm running on each device. Ufff, 3.1 huh? As long as I have only USB otg issues I can wait rather patiently for that, I just hope we won't need like a 3.1.1 to fix 3.1's issues! >.<

I'm totally not paying 70 euros (that's how much it is in Greece and I don't see a way of getting it any cheaper from anywhere - it's pretty expensive so it will go as much or more from eBay cause it'll go through customs) for Nvidia's controller even if it does backflips and catches cookies that you throw at it! I mean to use my PS3 controllers but before flashing ota 3 I had installed SixAxis and didn't figure out how to pair it and haven't bothered since then yet...

Well if I see the error with the videos showing up perhaps I'll ask you to upload here the Youtube folder contents to try putting them back in there ;)

DEAR GOD SO I'M NOT NUTS!!! Hahaha no you broke nothing, they're just dumbasses and something in their device makes this god damn noise. I don't understand what it is, I was out of a tablet for a week (which was A BIG DEAL since I take my uni notes electronically and couldn't handwrite properly on my old tablet) to have my device replaced with one that doesn't make this sound; cause I thought that if it breaks out it might be because something was broken and that was why it made the noise but I didn't have it checked in time... BUT THE NEW ONE DOES IT TOO!! Aggggrrr. I don't care much, it's alright as long as there are noises around the house or there's music playing on my device but it bothers me when I read ebooks. I obviously don't want a stupid scratching sound when I read in peace and quiet!

Wow it really is sturdy, you've put it through a lot. I think mine has some time before the glue gets ruined, it doesn't overheat almost ever from what I've noticed, my KFHD got super hot pretty often, my SHIELD practically never. But my Kindle was also really sturdy, I have a tall bed with a ladder and I've fallen asleep on it with the tablet in my hands and dropped it from 2 meters but it was still good. I've done that like 3 times. Hahahaha

Guys,

I just got a notification for update 3.1. Is there anything special I need to do to perform this update?

Thanks
[Shield Tablet General] Vankog:
Probably removing the recall-check-app since it's only use it to check if your tablet is suitable for the recall.

---------- Post added at 12:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:44 AM ----------

What I really wonder is: what about the OTG bug? Did they fix it?
[Shield Tablet General] YuriPan:
That's my question too! I will try OTG now, I had downloaded and flashed the update but I was away from home so I couldn't check. Not that it matters much at the moment, my tablet is one of those getting recalled. I'll probably keep on using it till I get my replacement, but I mean to shut it down when I'm away from home and only charge it while being nearby.

Will let you know about the OTG issue!

---------- Post added at 05:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:35 PM ----------

Alright, I've got news for you guys! My OTG feature was as dead as a doornail with OTA 3, but in 3.1 it reads USB drives just fine! Let's open a bottle of champagne or two! :victory:

[MENTION=5558549]Pariahnoble[/MENTION] are you planning to update this thread with info specific to the 3.1 update? This is one of the best walkthroughs / guides I've encountered. Thanks for your help!!!

Anyone tried removing the recall app and whatever else bricks the tablet when activating our replacement?
[Shield Tablet General] JohnK71:
I was thinking about just putting Bliss Pop in mine and see how it goes when I activate my replacement. If I knew the name of the app I might try it, but it might be better just to get away from stock 5.1.1. ;) I also have unlocked bootloader and twrp so it should help since I sideloaded 3.1 update.
[Shield Tablet General] YuriPan:
I did the exact same thing, now if NVDIA bricks the old tablets somehow anyway, I'll still have a bunch of functioning spare parts in case my device has some issues after my guarantee ends. Plus an extra stylus, which I use a lot at the uni

Hey [MENTION=5558549]Pariahnoble[/MENTION] your guide was amazing for LL build 3.xxx!! Now in Android Marshmallow 6.0 - Build 4.xxx could you please advise if you recommend using Titanium backup for restoring apps, or should one just do them all from the playstore. What about app data, does it still cause issues if restoring data?

Regarding the preloaded apps, which ones do you recommend removing from recovery? Tia!
[Shield Tablet General] nodiaque:
How does it work for you? I just bought a new 64GB sd card, which is recognize and tablet K1 stock does see it, but I cannot move any apps on it. To do this, according to nvidia faq, you need NTFS. But I can still save file on it, just not move stuff apps on it. Since that's what I want, I'm stuck on formating in NTFS it seems. To bad it work on my HTC M9 as exfat.

Best app ever for retail!

I work in retail (Best Buy) and I use this app all the time to write down quick notes or customer requests.

Suggestions?

Only one, different color skins for notes/interface. Great app otherwise!

Question/Suggestion

First I want to say this is a great program so thank you for making it.

I have one suggestion or question. Is it possible to be able to re-arraign the tasks within a note. It would be nice that when i open the program I immediately see, from the snapshot, important tasks first. Basically be able to add a line to the first line.

Thanks
