[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdfajkldfkwfj:
I am about to RMA the phone for loose USB port, so I did a factory reset in android (after FOTA to the latest firmware yesterday).

The phone has showing Erasing for over 12 hours.

Long press power button to turn it off, entering recovery mode, it continues the wipe (Erasing) without giving me recovery options.

The normal procedure for recovery mode gives me "Formatting /data..." at the bottom of the screen. My phone is the 64GB version. Assuming I have 30GB of data, how much time does it take to finish the wipe? Or the memory/motherboard is bad?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CincyTriGuy:
I got a 6P a few days ago, after getting a Galaxy Tab S2 a few weeks ago. These are my first Android devices and I'm still figuring things out.

One of the things that I'm kinda frustrated about is notifications. I'm used to iOS where I can control all notification settings for all apps in one spot (banners, sounds, lock screen, notification center, etc). Unless I'm missing something, it seems like Android notifications are controlled individually in each app, and the granularity of control you have over what type of notifications it produces is at the mercy of whatever settings the developer decided to implement. Is this an accurate assessment? And yes I'm aware of the Notifications area in Settings that allowed to control peeking and sensitivity.

Specifically, I have an app (Flickr) that I want to get lock screen notifications for, but it makes a sound for each notification - which I absolutely do not want. There is only one setting in the app - Notifications enabled or disabled. Is there somewhere else I can go to configure it to retain a lock screen notification but disable sound? Or am I just stuck with whatever the app allows me to do?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevemw:
You are correct. And feel on the app you may find you have no control over the type and frequency of those alerts.

[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikie00mike:
Hi there. I have the Nvidia Shield TV Pro and have been having trouble finding the right receiver.

First I purchased a Sony STRDH550 5.2 Channel 4K AV Receiver, and found out that it cannot handle 4K upscaling (which the Nvidia Shield TV does according to Sony) Technically it worked, but what would happen is the screen goes black then will show the input on tv. Almost like someone unplugs the HDMI and then reconnects. Best way I have thought of naming this is an HDMI Blink. It happens numerous (10 to 15 times) per day. So according to Sony this receiver was only 4K passthrough capable, which actually didn't even work, I had to connect shield directly to TV and use ARC for sound.

Second, I purchased an Onkyo Thank you-NR636 7.2 Ch -- which is advertised as 4K passthrough and 4K upscale capable. I still have the HDMI blink, but now it is not as often (2-3 times) per day.

The TV I'm using is a Vizio M50-C1 and is 4K HDMI 2.0 HDCP 2.2.

It has 4 30Hz HDMI ports and 1 60Hz HDMI port.

The only way I can get ULTRA 4K to play from Netflix is to connect it to the 60Hz port.

The other 30Hz ports are labeled 4K, and when connected will play with audio/video but will not broadcast in 4K. I do not understand this, so if anyone could shed some light that would be great. (I've tried every troubleshooting step I could think of) ie. unplugging all cables and plugging them back in sequence. After connection unplugging the power on the Shield TV and re plug. (Same with receiver and TV) I've tried other sources on the receiver and tried every HDMI port/input.

So I'm thinking of returning this Onkyo Receiver and purchasing a better/more expensive one. I would appreciate anyones feedback on their experience with the Nvidia Shield TV and 4K Receiver/TV.

Has anyone been able to get full 60Hz 4K and 720/1080 Upscaling from Receiver to TV to operate without any problems?

Are there any Receivers you could recommend to me that can handle this properly? Thanks for your help.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrk112:
I cant answer your question directly as I haven't used 4k receivers, but have you considered that the HDMI cable could be faulty?
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikie00mike:
Unfortunately I already replaced both the HDMI cables with brand new gold plated HDMI 2.0 4K cables.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martyn3000:
I might be able to shed some light.

Firstly it doesn't sound like your HDMI cable. There's actually no such thing as a HDMI 2.0 cable. It's the devices that are HDMI 2.0, and will work with any high speed HDMI cable.

Always plug a 4K device into a 60hz HDMI if possible. That way if any of the apps, or even the home screen want to run at 50hz or 60hz you won't experience a problem. Obviously if it's plugged into the 30hz port, the picture will disappear when the device outputs anything above 30hz.

You don't actually want your AVR to upscale your picture. Your 4K TV will do it automatically, and TV's generally do a better job than AVR's.

As for the HDMI blink, I'm not entirely sure (I've not actually plugged my shield into my 4K TV yet) it could be when the system switches resolutions, eg 4K to 1080p. The screen needs a little time to process the new source. My TV does that when my PC is hooked up, and I switch between a 4K desktop environment and a 1080p game.

If it's any help my AVR has no problem with any 4K material I've thrown at it. I use a Pioneer VSX 930.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NiHaoMike:
The Shield TV, like all modern Nvidia devices, has a built in upscaler. No need for an external one and in fact, extra processing is likely to degrade gaming experience.

Using ARC is actually a good solution although that has the disadvantage of requiring the TV to be on just to listen to music.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikie00mike:
Thank you for the information. It's actually really helpful. Those were all things I was wondering but not sure. Another question for you; I primarily use the shield remote and not the controller. If I have the shield connected to the receiver with pass through, and I try to adjust the volume with the shield remote it does not work. It says this app is set for surround sound please use the tv remote to adjust the volume. Is this normal? On my previous receiver that didn't happen. I could adjust the volume with the shield remote. Any thoughts?
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikie00mike:
The arc solution does work. I get 4K video etc. but it still has the HDMI blink when playing non 4K content. The only solution so far I have found us to use the 30hz input on the TV, which eliminates the HDMI blink. Then when I way to watch 4K content, switch it back to the 60hz port.

I haven't tried changing the Nvidia HDMI settings to use the (less than 60hz) option. I think it's 27hz or something like that.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NiHaoMike:
Does the TV work fine with another 4K source like a PC? You might also want to try a shorter and/or different brand of HDMI cable.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikie00mike:
I have t tried another source. I'm not even sure my PC does 4K. Would I need a 4K graphics card? I will definitive try a different cable. I had previously used a gold plated cable that was a few years old, and that's when I noticed the HDMI blink. So I purchased two new ones from Amazon. I'm pretty sure they are the right ones, but would like to reassure if anyone knows.

[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martyn3000:
HDMI control is a fickle beast. I find it works with some devices and not others. It could just be the combination of Shield and AVR you currently have.

I wouldn't be changing your AVR primarily on it's ability to function with your Shield though.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NiHaoMike:
If you have a 650 or above GPU (Kepler), it supports 4K output.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MintyTrebor:
I have just overcome some 4k UHD issues with my Shield TV which are similar to the ones you described.

The main problem is HDCP 2.2....

This is what I found out.

Some time last year the HDCP standards were changed to require any 4K 60hz display to only accept a 4K 60hz UHD signal if it was wrapped in HDCP 2.2. Put simply - this means if any device in the connectivity chain is not HDCP 2.2 compatable you will not get a 4K 60hz UHD picture on your display.

For me this was a problem because my HDMI 4K UHD switch was not HDCP 2.2, and my LG 55EG960v refused the non-hdcp2.2 signal, so the shield TV would auto re-connect @ 1080p beacuse the connectivity chain was incompatible....

4K UHD Netflix requires HDCP 2.2, which is why it will only connect/work on the single HDMI input on your TV rated for 4k 60hz hdcp2.2...

The only way to guarantee a working 4K 60hz UHD signal is to ensure all your equipment is HDCP2.2 certified, or do some clever duplex routing.

Unitl this year HDCP2.2 equipment at reasonable prices was very scarce, but LIGAWO is a german manufactuer who seems to have just released a whole range of HDCP2.2 routers/switches/splitters etc (at reasonable consumer level prices).... I am sure there will be many more suppliers soon.

The rule of thumb I would use is - Unless the specification clearly states the device/equipment is HDCP2.2 compatable - don't go near it.....

I really, really hate DRM....

PS: It sounds like may not need to replace your expensive AV reciever, and what you want to achieve could be done through duplex routing. Happy to have a PM discussion if that would help. I currently run 5 consoles, 1 STB, 1Shield TV, 1 PC, and Chromecast audio, all with a Yamaha DSP Soundbar/Reciever (which is only HDMI 1.4 compatable), into 1 TV, and still can get 4k UHD 60hz + 7.1 HD audio.... So it can be done without replacing your AV reciever.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikie00mike:
THIS IS AWESOME!! Thanks so much for this. Would you mind if I PM you later tonight when I get home from work? So would I also need a new router? Right now I have an Asus RTAC66U dual band. I also have a WD My Cloud EX4 that I stream videos from, would that need to be replaced also? I will PM you later if ok. Thanks again.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikie00mike:
So does this mean 650 or above GPU is for the receiver or media player? When you say 650 does that handle 4K passthrough, as well as full 4K upscaling from 480/720/1080p content?
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NiHaoMike:
In the PC you're using as a source, to rule out the Shield as the problem. And yes, any Kepler or newer GPU (including the one built into the Shield) will upscale all the way to 4K, although the smaller ones won't be able to handle the most advanced algorithms. But unless you're a hardcore videophile, you'll be hard pressed to tell the difference between how well a high end GPU upscales as opposed to how well a smaller GPU upscales. Not surprising given that image scaling is just one of the most fundamental parts of 3D rendering.

Hi I am solderig all day without success .

I am working on a project to build lenovo A3500H into Renault Megan Scenic 2006 dashboard. But there is a problem :(. I can not start OTG and charging at the same time on my Lenovo A3500H. I want to connect 4port USB hub to standart OTG cable. The hub is with his own power. I want to use the hub ti charge the tablet. And the same time to connect PC or flash drive. The problem is that when I connet the OTG cable the tablet starts charging for several minutes and stops. I reed a lot and understand that to unloch the charging option until hosting I need to put resistor between pin4 and pin5 but every brand needs different resistance value. I tried with 36k Ohm, 100k Ohm, 200k Ohm. Does someone make it work for lenovo device ? I used this . Tommorow I think to put and one 1N4001 on the red wire between phone and device. But accept ideas.

well im not sure which way would be easier i would think downgrading and re rooting but if you choose not to you can always just reroot it even on lollipop there is a new way to root no matter what version you are on also check and make sure you have busybox and supersu installed it may have gotten deleted somehow and that could be why your phone is saying you dont have root
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] painiac:
There's not much point in re-rooting if you plan to download an update to lollipop, because the update will immediately un-root you.

Just use Odin to flash a factory image, then follow the rooting instructions for whichever version you decide on.

[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] Blues fan:
So I ordered one of those knox armor cases for $14 off Amazon. They're similar looking to the Otterbox and offer similar protection. Only thing is they don't have a built in protector but that's not a big deal because I have tempered glass on mine.

Only think I really don't like is just like the Otterbox Defender, the rubber near the home key tends to work a little loose after riding around in my pocket.

The rubber around it seems a bit more dense so hopefully it last longer than the Defenders. After just a couple months my Defenders always become looser due to the rubber wearing.

It's not the best case but for $14 bucks I'll take it over a Defender though. It provides more protection than the Supcase too. Only other durable case I can think of that is more durable than this is my Poetic Revolution which I love but it's huge and doesn't work with wireless charging like this one does

This is probably the best case in amazon I've had it since I've had my phone along with the built in screen protector I use tempered glass. I do construction and I wear my 800$ phone on my tool belt with confidence. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B013D...+belt+clip&dpPl=1&dpID=51PBx5XllCL&ref=plSrch
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] Blues fan:
I got a Supcase. I like the built in screen protector on it but it is a it thin for my liking. I think the best case for being really rugged is the Poetic Revolution but it is kind of over kill but a great case. Again for max protection Supcase is like commuter case to me. The Ulak case is thick and feels more like a Defender. If Ulak case wears like the Otterbox I'll probably rip the temperd glass off and go back to Supcase or the P
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] dutchmaster18:
To each his own but I'll go to bat for the unicorn beetle. I v dropped it plenty of times and not even the tempered glass has broken yet..... knock on wood. The buttons work great and it has a belt clip. Can't beat that in my book
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] Ryano89:
I've got the ulak, and I really like it. I was going to get the supcase, but I REALLY don't like built in screen protectors.
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] Blues fan:
I like the built in one on the supcase. It isn't like Otterbox. It fits flush so dirt doesn't get under it. However the Supcase is stiff and too thin for my liking for drop protection. The Ulak seems good. Even if it only last 6 months it was only 14 bucks. My otterBox after 3 months was wearing a lot so I bought other cases. Waste of 50 bucks. My next Note phone I'll order some Amazon cases a few days before I buy the phone so I'm not suckered into buying otterboxes.
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] udis:
I have and use the supcase daily. I love the fit and finish you can definitely tell it's a well made piece. I did also grab one of the Knox armor cases too for around 3 dollars with a coupon code from amazon. Side by side it's easy to tell the supcase built much better. As far as drop protection goes between the two I have no idea, but I have dropped my note a couple times so far. I have yet to actually put the ulak case on, never found a reason to take the supcase off
[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] Blues fan:
The Supcase the phone feels kind of thin to grip. Maybe it's because I'm so used to using Otterbox Defender and Poetic Revolution cases. I always thought the Note 5 was a bit thin to grip.

Another good case to check out is the Artech 21. I like the Supcase but it just seems a bit too thin especially with all the glass on this phone. That is why I went with the Ulak. So far after a week it's still holding up well compared to the Defender I have.
