Yes, if you adopt it formats the card so there is nothing there. You have to move the backup to computer and then back after it is setup which is what I did. I have now rooted with the new, beta supersu and the twrp and it's working perfectly with the same backup now. TB even said something was wrong with the binary using the rooted boot image. I did adopted on this one because I have the k1 16gb. On my moto x pure I stil use portable as I do not fill it up.

One good note is that if you forget to format the sdcard before resetting phone you can still format it on computer. Some are saying you cannot. It just looks like jibberish, but I format it on the wifes windows box to windows fat32 and then I format it on my mac to dos fat32 using terminal. Been using fastboot and adb on the mac also. Formatting it on the windows box to windows fat32 I could not write to it. Just tossing that in if anyone is interrested. I have forgotten to format the card twice before resetting the phone, doh.

I had the same problems and had to start all over again. I had to download the lollipop stock restore from nvidia (but it's in this thread also), extracted the k1 5.1.1 stock image downloaded from nvidia. Extraction:

http://developer.download.nvidia.co...age-shield-tablet-sb_na_wf-37154_590.0364.zip

Then flashed it.

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash staging blob.img

The flash-all file also has the commands.

I ota'ed to 6.0. and deleted the "recoveryonboot.p in /system" as was recommended by fards. I then flashed the experimental twrp as recommended by exile 1975 doing fastboot reboot afterwards:

TWRP

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24345424848487676

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot flash twrp.img ( or whatever it's named)

fastboot reboot (without this I couldn't get recovery to stick)

adb reboot recovery

and the recovery image took, was able to reboot into it. I went into twrp and flashed the beta supersu and had perfect root.

supersu

http://download.chainfire.eu/752/SuperSU/BETA-SuperSU-v2.65-20151226141550.zip

This is what worked perfectly for me and i had to go back to stock 5.1.1 and start over. I'm not assuming you don't already know most if not all of this, just putting together the great info I got from here that worked for me.

If anyone has a mac you can do these commands as long as you start them with ./ and have fastboot/adb activated.

Not sure if it's the reduced System for OG Tab from farbs or also the case with the OTA, but I found no Exchange support in either the Gmail or separate Email with Exchange like in 5.1.1, but I found the 5.1.1 versions work fine.

Just copy the two folders to /system/app and set the permissions accordingly

Hi how did u extract th sh file? Because aam on 5.1.1 but its the old Shields fw a got the k1s fw that a want to put on it and there is only an sh file in the zip and using or even trying to download cygin or whatever its called to extract necessary files a have no clue so if u could help me out it would be greatly appreciated.
[Shield Tablet General] xsquid:
Here are the instructions, they are pretty straight forward:

"NOTE: The download for the factory image linked above is currently a direct download and links to a ZIP file that contains a single archive that displays a License Agreement before unpacking. To unpack the file, unzip the download and then use: a Linux terminal window; or in Windows a CYGWIN command prompt, and run "bash ./extract-nv-recovery-image-shield-tablet-sb_na_wf-37154_590.0364.sh" from the unzip directory.

We are working to add the download to the Download Center at which time the unpacking process will work on both Windows and Linux with a standard ZIP/UNZIP program."

I am running osx and can't remember if I ran ./bash ./extract-nv-recovery-image-shield-tablet-sb_na_wf-37154_590.0364.sh or if it was just ./extract-nv-recovery-image-shield-tablet-sb_na_wf-37154_590.0364.sh . Sometimes I have to play with the commands in osx, they should be correct for windows. You do not have to worry about the ./ in front of bash if you are not running osx. Run it from the directory where the .sh is unzipped to.

Yes see this is the confusing bit am on win 7 and that cygy thing a tried it to noavail an to download all packages is was taking ages ?

Mine downloaded pretty quick but I'm sorry someone else will have to help you on the windows command part. I have been gone for a while from windows, probably will be back in a couple of years when it's time to upgrade though. Here is cygwin and a small tutorial if that helps.

Dead Android is Stock Recovery.

Flash TWRP recovery from fastboot and immediately go into it from the Bootloader option.

In TWRP, use the file manager to delete "recovery-from-boot.p" from /system

Flash SuperSU 2.66

[Shield Tablet General] lawliet80:
hi,

I got a question for you guys. I have the k1 under android 6.0 with unlock bootloader and twrp experimental (unlock root).

My SD card is configured as an internal storage.

I don't know why but after downloading a lot of apps, when i restart, some of them just disappeared (firefox, microsoft excel/powerpoint/word, ...).

And some apps just don't want to be launched (ex: Faceworks, 3dmark).

What should i do?
[Shield Tablet General] aaronne:
Move incriminated apps to internal memory
[Shield Tablet General] lawliet80:
it worked for some only
[Shield Tablet General] drewski_1:
Maybe you have a bad SD Card?
[Shield Tablet General] darkuni:
Were you warned when converting to internal storage about speed or compatibility?

What brand? What Class?

Sounds like your SD card is the issue to me too.
[Shield Tablet General] lawliet80:
I don't think my SD card is the issue, it is a sandisk 64Go.

It worked perfectly on android 5.1.1. It is since the update and experimental TWRP that i got the problem
[Shield Tablet General] darkuni:
Well, you said you moved SOME apps internal and they worked? Maybe there is some issue with Adaptive Storage when using the "hacked" method of getting MM on the OG tablet.

Or are you on the K1?
[Shield Tablet General] lawliet80:
Even with apps that i put back to internal storage, they do not launch. That is why i don't think the SD card (external memory) is responsible
[Shield Tablet General] darkuni:
Oh, I thought you said SOME of the ones you moved back worked, some didn't. My bad.
[Shield Tablet General] lawliet80:
Well, i think the best thing to do is to wait for a proper TWRP...
[Shield Tablet General] fards:
Not sure twrp is interfering.

Obviously without logs it is pretty much impossible to see what is going on.
[Shield Tablet General] drewski_1:
the TWRP recovery should not impact the ROM while running.
[Shield Tablet General] lawliet80:
I am making a log for 3d mark and faceworks apps :good:
[Shield Tablet General] fards:

ok for 3d mark.

I have tried for faceworks but still does not work.

And apps keep disapearing when i restart.

I tried:

factory reset

restart

flash twrp + install supersu

wipe data/davilk cache

retry

does not work...
[Shield Tablet General] drewski_1:
Try without SD card at all, to eliminate that variable.

You're card may be fine, but the implementation to use as Internal is new so may have a bug.

I get the same problem. on my HTC and others. Sometimes you have to hold PWR and Up Vol. key for 5-15 seconds.. Hold for too long and the device reboots. And sometimes I have to try it several times to get the recovery menu to appear.

I am curious if when the K1 update comes if it will be usable on the original ST. Obviously it'll miss the additional direct stylus options. But other than that I wonder if it'll be flashable. Only reason I wonder is in case Nvidia drags their feet with bringing 6.0 to the original ST

Me too

Just looked at my K1 and noticed it had an OTA update waiting. SHIELD Tablet K1 Software Upgrade 1.0 665mb.

edit: FYI, I had an empty SD card mounted prior to the update and it seems to take lots of time to format that for internal storage. I did a reboot, formatted it portable (relatively quickly), then eject/re-inserted and it still seems to spend lots of time stuck at 20% while formatting SD card for internal storage. All with a scary message about not removing the sd while it's formatting. Everything appears ok after I restart the tablet (like maybe the formatting continued even while the progress bar was stuck at 20%) but it'll take a bit more testing to know if that's the case.
[Shield Tablet General] yubimusubi:
I just got mine, and grabbed the OTA file.

The file name is shield_tablet_k1_software_upgrade_1.0__6.0.zip and it is right around 666M.

[Shield Tablet General] pearce29:
Can someone post a link to original shield tablet WiFi zip.

To be clear, is the original tab having the killed WiFi problem?
[Shield Tablet General] Mathman85:
I'm not sure. Because of the K1 confusion, I can't tell which users complaining of WiFi issues have the original or K1. I have the original and the update went smoothly--no issues at all, so far. Others have posted in the original tablet's update thread on Nvidia's forums that they've lost WiFi, but nobody's specifying which version of the tablet they have (and as Jocavi has demonstrated, too many K1 users are posting in original threads).

Edit: There's at least one person on Nvidia's forums who states he has WiFi issues with an original Shield Tablet. It seems Nvidia has pulled the update to look into it. Several others (myself included) have been pleased with the update.
[Shield Tablet General] pearce29:

[Shield Tablet General] jeffober:
The issue is with MM on the WiFi Shield. Nvidia has indeed pulled the OTA until they can work out how to fix the broken WiFi issue.
[Shield Tablet General] Mathman85:
I have a WiFi Shield and I do not have the issue. Others have also had success, so it's not a uniform issue with all WiFi Shields, as your posts suggests. And I acknowledged in my post that they pulled the update to look into it.

This is literally my screenshot. Note the wifi symbol in the status bar.

The post you replied to, explains exactly why there was a question, and you simply post as if you know.

Haven't seen a TWRP build for Shield Tablet K1 yet ....?
[Shield Tablet General] Steel01:
No need, it's still a shieldtablet. The current TWRP releases work fine. The only thing that makes a difference is the bootloader. Afaik, all current releases except my experimental one earlier in this thread are for the 5.1 bootloader (that is original tablet <= 3.1.1 and K1 0.0 [or whatever people are calling it]). My experimental build has the screen refresh problem I still have found a solution to yet. I got a multirom twrp build to boot, but it has the same problem. When I get time and energy, I'm going to get ahold of the TWRP devs on IRC and see if they have seen the problem on other devices and if there is a fix.
[Shield Tablet General] darkuni:
Thanks for the reply. Your experimental one is the current one I'm using for my site's tutorials. But I know people would like to see the tutorial upgraded to use 3.0.

I checked the repository and it still shows 2.8.x as the most current ...? If you could point me to the multirom build, I'd be happy to bang on it a little and add it to my tutorial.
[Shield Tablet General] Steel01:
The multirom build is here. It works, including all the multirom functionality (though I don't have the other pieces finished yet, booting my CM builds as secondary boots to a black screen). Just keep in mind the twrp interface has the same bug.

I could build 3.0 easily enough, but it wouldn't be any different than the experimental build. I'd rather get that problem fixed and hand it off to the official maintainer for a release.
[Shield Tablet General] darkuni:
Would there be any benefit to the end user by replacing the one I have with this one? The MD5s don't match - so yours is probably newer - but if there isn't any fix or feature that makes it worthwhile, I'll leave it as is until you get the UI flakiness worked out. :)

Thanks again!
[Shield Tablet General] Steel01:
To the average user, nothing at all. It only adds support for the multirom features. I'd say it's better to keep the mainline twrp for tutorials.
