The error is a dead Android's chest open with a blue warning sign

I Even done factory reset but of no use.

How can I solve this please help me
[Micromax Canvas A1] hp5942:

Maybe that will solve
[Micromax Canvas A1] Rexspidy:

You are the man, bro!! Getting the sheild TV can't wait to try your work on that!

I donated and I would recommend others do to, we don't get this good of support from just anyone! Also the work Zulu99 put into this is not quick and easy!!
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] TheShamsMan:
Hell YES! Thanks Zulu!!!!

Question. Is there any way this can be flashed via Recovery and a zip file? Will TWRP or CWM work on the Nexus Player? Thanks!
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] zulu99:
With the new TWRP recovery you can install also system.img. But to install TWRP recovery you need also fastboot. At this point, when you install TWRP recovery, you can install also system.img and boot.img. :)

However you can do all that you want in many way. The link for TWRP recovery is in the first post.
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] TheShamsMan:
KICKASS dude!! Awesome work!!

I will be trying this out right after work and will report back!
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] jacoghi:
This is just great, Zulu, thank you so much for sharing this project with us, there's just no way of going back to Android TV after you try this rom. Are all the functions to use an external storage with apps enabled? No need to flash modified kernel to acquire root as we had to do with lollipop? Thanks again, mate,
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] zulu99:
All ok and selinux is also enabled. so google can't break the balls saying that we are not secure. Also if i think that the real security in android is only with root, because without root permissions, you don't have sufficient permissions to manage and clean up your own system.

For me, selinux enabled is good only because some crap apps can check this to not work. When you hide the root, you are on pure and simple AOSP, so no problems for everyone.

I tested many things, but please test and let me know what we can add or correct. I use it as daily rom from some days.
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] jacoghi:
Thanks, man, surely will do! In your personal opinion, is this one falling behind your build of LP in any aspects, or it's just as good? I'm flashing it right now, will report this afternoon already about any eventual issues! Thanks once again

EDIT: Tried formatting two USB drives as "internal storage", one of 32 GB and one of 8 GB. The 32 GB one keeps failing over and over, giving me a java related error (timeout).

The 8GB one formatted and worked fine.

The Dish Network Anywhere app won't run. It attempts to open and crashes. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Any ideas anyone? Other than that this is fantastic so far. Thank you [MENTION=1469500]zulu99[/MENTION] !!
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] Otisrhw:
Can i preinstall apps on windows or would i have to unpack and repack in linux? to clarify I'm looking for a way to install same apps on multiple devices without doing one by one, as of now I have a folder in Es file explorer (android TV apps) and transfer via LAN then install one by one.

Anyone know easier way?

Thoughts helium backup, twrp backup first device and restore from backup on other devices.
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] zulu99:
With this firmware i can do all that i need so i adopted it as daily firmware. Everyone can have different vision.

But seem that all work well also if is the first public build ( not the first build in my office :) ).

However not problem, if someone find things that i can correct, i'm happy to help.
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] Otisrhw:
I'm checking now did you root? I think Dishanywhere.apk checks root. When I do next one I'll try without root first. I can confirm crash with root.
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] Jeremiah.Crowell:
Yes, I did root. It worked well with the lollirock 2.1 rooted.
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] Otisrhw:
Yup with or without root it crashes. I also extracted from nexus 9 on 6.0 and crashed as well. I might try some more ideas later but as for now I have 6 devices to flash.

Works fine on nexus 6 6.0.
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] zulu99:
Don't forget that this firmware is android 6. So to say if an app works or not work, compare with the stock firmware. some apps are not ready for android 6.

But 85% yes.
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] zulu99:
can you post a link of your dish network app. I tested the first that google search suggested, but seem that this is not x86 ready. Not a firmware problem but the app not work well on x86 and houdini don't intercept it to translate. Seem an app problem, but if you post the link i can see better. Maybe i have an old / bad version.

couldn't find "libnmpsdk_kk.so"
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] Otisrhw:
This one workes on lollirock 2.1 lollipop 5.1.1

Same question for me. I was just going to try the installer but judging by the thread over there I doubt it'd be that simple.

If you dare, I'd try flashing one of the x86 zips (not sure if it's 75 or 77) then I guess install the apk?

Why Netflix has limitations on many Android custom firmwares, if an user also on stock firmware and without Root can record video ?

I'm against piracy, but sellers of movies and songs are ruining the future of Android.

In this way, you can record also all the other services that normally do not allow Root or custom firmwares on Android.

https://youtu.be/G0Oajmr645o
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] KLit75:
After watching that video I'm still confused ? Looks like a custom rom running on shield (i think) but was he recording netflix? I know people do it but not aware of a specific app or extension. I record youtube videos (have been for awhile). Now google is selling an overpriced service that allows you to do it for a monthly fee.

Personally, i think if its your equipment, your internet and its going to be watched only in your home... your PAID netflix subscription should include the ability to record/download. But whats the significance of that video? Thanks.
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] nickhaven:
This ROM is also on the shield. What zulu99 said applies to almost all custom ROMs or any altered ROM.

Totally agree with you both about services like Netflix and MPAA/RIA is holding tech back.

Also, they just need to realize that if you can view it or listen to it, you can capture it.
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] KLit75:

[Nexus Player Original Android Development] SkOrPn:
Has anyone seen a review of the NP with this ROM yet? Curious what the performance is like with Android 6 and video streaming. Any buffering ever? What is the PQ like, just as good as say the SHIELD TV? Trying to determine if I want the NP or if I want to spend more on the SHIELD or a Chinese mini PC with dual boot.

If you're thinking Shield now might be a good time to buy

http://www.aftvnews.com/nvidia-shield-tv-with-remote-on-sale-for-174-99-down-from-250/

---------- Post added 17th November 2015 at 12:03 AM ---------- Previous post was 16th November 2015 at 11:54 PM ----------

I'd like to know too. Only xposed mod I have now is youtube adaway. Don't have an android tablet so I've never tried pop up video or any floating window type mods. Any good recommendations for xposed mods on TV?
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] SkOrPn:
Yeah nice to see the price come down, but still its over 4 times more than the NP, which could be had for like $42 on ebay if paying attention, and maybe $25 or so during Black Friday sales. Just last month Target was selling them in-stores for $25 and other stores such a Best Buy was price matching it. I might pay $150 for the shield, I stress "might" but it will need some really good reasons over the Nexus Player like maybe fantastic 1080p PQ that is noticeably better than the NP. I love Performance for sure, but it needs to be leaps faster than the NP to justify it's cost, or the NP needs to be a slow poke device lol. My first 4K TV does not come until 2017, so using 4K as the reason to get the Shield, or gaming for that matter, is not really a reason for me, yet. Besides, NVIDIA could have version two of the Shield TV by 2017 anyway, not to mention maybe a NP2. I have both Ethernet and WiFi AC just a few inches from where the new media streamer will go, so it really doesn't matter what connection it has to the net either. One thing that is important is USB connections, but I already have a dedicated USB Hub for either one to use.

So, again I am torn on which one to get, be smart and go with the lower cost player, or go for a ton of wonderful features I cant really use anyway. Hmmm that is the question.

OR, continue to wait and hope for something else interesting to hit the market?. Such as a Cherry Trail (or Skylake) based Mini PC with dual booting, such as this for only $115 which will probably get a dual-boot ROM option with both Windows 10 and FULL Android 5.1.1, or maybe even Marshmallow. But at $40 I am leaning towards the NP with this ROM. lol

In addition to normal back/home button press, search found instructions to press button underside but does nothing. Able to link with stock as well as 12.1 but just can't find remote w/6.0. Second, PlayStore only lists very few compatible apps. Tries various GAPPS with no luck. Is there a particular package to flash? Thanks and Zulu99 thank for efforts on this great ROM.

I was using Google search today when it showed me the Sold Out ebay listing, Google search. Really pissed me off something fierce today. You'd think ebay's built in search engine would show you all listings for the Nexus Player if you use the terms "Nexus Player". 289 units sold in 48 hours between the 15th and 17th, both days I checked ebay like 20 times on and never once found the listing :confused:

Did you take pictures of the $14.99 target price tag? Because the old saying goes, pictures or it didn't happen. That's what my target will most likely tell me. Lol

Nickhaven, thanks for link. I had read all 20 pages and tried as described too many times to remember.. Thinking will reinstall system to see if solves. Otherwise, I'm stumped. Just can't get remote to pair.
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] nickhaven:
So weird, so you opened Bluetooth pairing on your TV and held down the circle and arrow (aka back button) both for 3-4 seconds, then select the menu button on the TV and choose search and still nothing? Not trying to assume step where not followed, just trying to make sure I was clear enough.

If that doesn't work idk then, maybe a reinstall but I wouldn't think would work if other devices pair properly.
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] petermg:
Can you make it so that we have the option to use the mic built into the remote? I wanted to install DroidMote and also Mouse Toggle for when I am using the device, but still have the mic functionality of the normal remote. I have a 4 year old who knows how to use the remote to navigate to the shows he wants but if I am REQUIRED to use something else other than the mic in the built in remote, then I will most likely just go back to stock. Doesn't suite my needs :( Also Prime Video not working for me, which was the main reason I wanted to try this ROM.

---------- Post added at 09:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:18 PM ----------

Oh also for some reason there is no logcat available on this ROM...?
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] zulu99:
Just for info:

Also DroidMote have voice to text functionalities. Are based on google voice search.

So there are no differences in voice recognition.

The good, is that you can use it on all apps because the voice is recognized and tranformed in text.

In alternative, you can connect also an usb mic ( webcam + mic for example ) to make standard voice search. ( example: OK Google )

I have a 4 year old son too, he use an old galaxy s3 with droidmote client inside to control youtube for kids, youtube and netflix on Nexus Player. But in my case he made searches clicking with the mouse and swipe gestures.

About the Prime Video app, if work on tablet, should work also on this firmware. I don't know because i not use it.
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] QTeknology:
Ok, my Nexus Player arrived.

I immediately unlocked the bootloader and flashed this ROM.

I use a K400 keyboard that works fine in TWRP and of course in this ROM, but I've to remap the right button making It as "Back" button.

I have an overscan problem about 1 inch, I fixed It with UI Tuner (40,20,40,20) but when I use Youtube, main app fits well but when I start a video I have black borders... youtube works @ 1080p.

Then I have softkeys problem that they does not hide when using Netflix (leanback). I will remove editing build.prop

Nexus Player goes in black screen stand-by after a few, so I unlocked developer menu and checked "Stay Awake".

Netflix for Android Tv (leanback) does works @ 1080p (I took it from apkmirror)

Netflix from market (standard) does works @ SD resolution

I will hard test the Rom in next days and I will try to help you and Zulu, if He wants...
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] zulu99:
for overscan, your tv should have "fit to screen" in menu. all modern tv have it. at least all tv that i have.

for soft keyboard, when you connect an hardware keyboard or droidmote that emulate an hardware keyboard, android automatically hide the software keyboard forever. you can change the behaviour in android settings and have also both software and hardware keyboard.

[Nexus Player Original Android Development] QTeknology:
Ok, I checked my poor hannspree tv and I found a setting to stretch video... so I solved.

On minix x7, with my Logitech k400, I had right mouse button mapped as "back", now the back button is the "esc" key.

I removed soft keys editing build.prop

Now all seems to works well.

I started a game that forced the rotation of screen... Angry birds balls...

Is there a setting that force to disable the rotation ?

It could happen with another app or game...

Ps.

I wrote you an email in Italian, check your email...

There is an app from the playstore called Rotation Lockerhttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devasque.rotationlocker . Just download and install. Sometimes, as you will learn with Android Tv, apps that you get will force portrait mode. When this happens, simply go open your Rotation Locker app and choose Landscape. There are a couple more advanced features to it but this is how I use it. There's a widget also. And one cool feature is it includes a Tasker/Locale plugin so you can automate the rotation switch based on different profiles. Hope this helps!!

NP about to become expensive paperweight!

Finally got remote working, apps sideloaded, configurations set and logins completed. Everything running great. Then all of a sudden, lost WIFI connection. Reset modem/router, forgot/reactivated account, rebooted NP, even reflashed system. All other devices on network working fine. Setup says NP connected but no access to internet.

Settings says ststus connected, signal strength excellent, link speed 144mbps, frequency 2.4ghz.

Any suggestions?
