did someone have problem with apps kodi? it seems smaller screen. i see only half susbtitle.

problem with play store app.

it say

"This version of the app isn't compatible with your device. To fix this problem, go to Settings and uninstall updates for google play store app."
[Shield Android TV Android Development] tailslol:
no no problems here. but because it is an android tv box, lots of apps in the playstore can apear as false positive in the playstore only ,so it say not compatible but with full android it works.

this is where market helper can help.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] Dramosith:
how can i fix that ?
[Shield Android TV Android Development] tailslol:
download and install market helper or download the app you want from somewhere else and sideload it.

but it is strange,i was thinking market helper was already in full android...

[Shield Android TV Android Development] meksis:
I have the same problem was. I found a simple solution. GooglePlay I updated to the latest version and all.

Sorry my english.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] StevCano:
Thanks alot. Just wanted to make sure i did the right way. Ill avoid the -w since i have 500gb version and will take hours
[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
I see some users that install full Android without clear old data installed from Android TV. After come here and complain for waring and errors.

When you install full Android, you must clear the garbage data partition installed from Android TV. This is mandatory when you come from Android TV, is optional if you update full Android version.

To clear data you can use the command fastboot -w or TWRP recovery or factory reset from Android settings or FlashFire app.

Android TV install in the data partition some basic Android components that are different from the classic version and this create conflicts also on google play stuff, therefore if you want a firmware that work well, delete the garbage that come from Android TV.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] Dramosith:
thx so much it works now :)
[Shield Android TV Android Development] ikgarcia:
Hi to all:

Has anybody tell me how I can put a fixed ip in settings connected by Ethernet???

In order to open the ports/Gates for some apks that I need to open them.

With wifi I already know how do it, but with Ethernet i dont know it.

I also happen when I do click in data usage/Ethernet the settings Crash, does anybody know how I can fix it???

Thanks and best regards.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] tailslol:
no because it will crash tons of apps in your device if you dont do it...
[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
you can do the configuration only on router.

fixed ip based on mac address of Shield TV and port forward on router to reach some services on Shield TV.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] ikgarcia:
Thank you very much zulu.

I understand it and the crash to click when I go to setting/data usage/Ethernet???

I have a friend who has the same problem.

Best regards.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] wanb1i:
I agree, why have information scattered all over the net?
[Shield Android TV Android Development] tailslol:
Backups? It is good to have same subject in multiple places, no sites are eternal.

Especially with download .
[Shield Android TV Android Development] wanb1i:
So I have tried this multiple times. The permissions change in Hangouts reverses itself after i make a video call. So no voice through hdmi in either Skype or Hangouts. It seems there's multiple ways to attempt to save the permissions change. I've tried 3, none of which are permanent. Any help would be deeply appreciated.

I even bought a c920 Webcam, same problems... :eek:

Clicking the 3 dots in Skype only selects the speaker choice. Doesn't help turning on the remote mic.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] darktyroll:
Click on the 3 dots, speaker will be fine. Then close the call. And call again. Now work?
[Shield Android TV Android Development] wanb1i:
Unfortunately, no. The audio and broadcast output doesn't seem to matter. It's the receipt of the remote access caller's audio output that isn't available. What is wierd is that an audio call seems to work, until you turn on the camera, then all remote audio disappeares. :eek:

I've also been able to get the permission change in Hangouts to stick. So that's not what's stopping the remote audio.

---------- Post added at 05:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:11 PM ----------

I'd XDA had a reliability problem I'd agree, but in the ten years or so I've been using this site, I can't recall it ever being down....
[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
I use a Logitech C525, but you can use also others webcam, the problem is not the mic but the audio via hdmi for calls classified as phone calls.

No problems in skype and hangouts with mic of webcam.

For audio via hdmi:

In skype i can click on 3 dots for speaker choice, so i can listen the audio of remote user via hdmi, therefore skype is working in all functionalities. Always and without modifications.

In hangouts instead, i have the android.permissions.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS disabled with xposed AppSettings module and to listen the remote user via hdmi oudio, before i made a skype call to test service to configure the correct audio routing. After this, i can use hangouts in correct way.

The audio rouring for calls and videocalls in hangouts is not permanent, it can reset to the original state after you use others apps and functionalities, but if you want restore the config, a simple call to test service in skype auto configure the correct audio routing.

In others words, also if you have the android.permissions.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS disabled in hangouts, you need a test voice call in skype before you can use hangouts well.

On stock firmware you have the same behaviour, is a Nvidia problem on the audio drivers unfortunately. Only in Marshmallow. The published audio drivers inside the public source code are completely not working, the only way to have audio is with stock precompiled drivers, that have this bad behaviour. I suspect that was made on purpose, is a classic of Nvidia publish fake source code.

To sum up, you can have Hangouts working in this way:

Disable for Hangouts app the android.permissions.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS with xposed AppSettings module ( permanent )

Before use Hangouts, make a Skype voice call to test service to configure the correct audio routing.

P.S.

For Facebook messenger, you can use the same trick that you use with Hangouts.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] wanb1i:
I have gotten the permission change in Hangouts to stick. But no remote audio in Skype or Hangouts regardless of speaker setting.

You said this is just in Marshmallow? I guess I can flash back to Lollipop then? Will that fix this?

That's too bad, because I brought the NSTV for marshmallow.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
With the trick above, for me work also on Marshmallow. Both skype and hangouts.

But yes in lollipop work also without the trick.

You have the hdmi directly connected to tv or you have different config ?
[Shield Android TV Android Development] wanb1i:
Yes, Hdmi direct to TV.

I'm very frustrated trying to get this to work, I must have tried 50 times. I really like the NSTV, but, at this point, I may just return it and get another BeeLink i68 Octacore, at least it works. Hell, I could get 3 for what I paid for this. :crying:
[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
is strange what you say, apart hangouts that need the trick, skype call to test service work always and without any modification.

you tried to increase the volume during the call ?

Look here:

https://youtu.be/A9X9DxSZE-w

In Hangout the voice the you hear ( one, two three ) come from the remote phone. the other user in the conversation, not from my mic.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] ikgarcia:
Hi:

I have a simple question, this rom can be installed with all Windows or is there a any version better than other???

Which is the best versión xp, vista or w10???

And anybody could tell me why when I go settings/data usage/Ethernet the settings crash. It happens me with 1.2 and 1.1 version.

Thanks.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] IamSonoma:
Win 10 for me is fine
[Shield Android TV Android Development] ikgarcia:
Thanks friend.

Its because I have installed with xp, but I have a friend who has w10 and he is interested to put this rom.

Best regards.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] wanb1i:
Yes, I checked the volume.

Where is this "Skype call to test service"? I see it in the Windows app, but I don't see it in the Android app.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
In skype you should have an user with the name Echo / Sound Test Service

like in this video: https://youtu.be/A9X9DxSZE-w

Skype for Android is this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.skype.raider

Make sure that you don't have connected a device that have also audio output during the test. Only hdmi audio and mic of webcam or generic usb mic.

Restart the Shield TV if necessary.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] tailslol:
well it seems it is a marshmallow problem,i see tons of complain about this app.

it is not debuged yet on it.

after all not a lots of maker switched yet.

outside the nexus line and some big name the switch to marshmallow is not yet done or not long ago was done.

just give it time to mature.

the big problem i see too most devices that jumped to marshmallow are not able to revert back without brick or big intrusion of bugs...

this is why nvidia pulled out old images update.

it seems it is the same for most other makers.

---------- Post added at 02:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:01 AM ----------

ill say w7 w8 w8.1 and w10

vista is not stable and wxp is to old for some drivers and have a bad x64 support.

for the crash check you flashed your rom on a fully updated and working 3.0 stock and wiped after installed full android.

generaly you missed one of those steps when you see this bug.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] wanb1i:
Thanks Zulu99, I will rest for a day and try again tomorrow. I'll let you know the results.:cool:
[Shield Android TV Android Development] ikgarcia:
Thanks.

I will do that you tell me.

But I have some friends with the same bug.

Ciao.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] j-m-s:
I also had this problem now, don't know why. Maybe the playstore got updated.

You go into Settings->Apps->Google Playstore, and klick "disable" button.

Now you are asked if you want to go back to ROM version, klick "yes".

Maybe you have to enable again.

---------- Post added at 11:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:17 PM ----------

Is it possible to see some hints about this problem in logcat?
[Shield Android TV Android Development] wanb1i:
UPDATE: I tried again after doing the Skype test on the NSTV & the phone (Moto X Pure, Marshmallow), same results. I can hear the NSTV audio, but not the phone. I didn't bother to try Hangouts.

I then installed the StockRestyle. Haven't tried Skype yet. Will try tomorrow & update.

I'm also downloading the Full android Lollipop rom to try it.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] ikgarcia:
Hi tailslol:

I have done all process other time and i have the same bug.

I go settings/data usage/Ethernet the setting crash.

I have installed the firmware factory but instead of wipe with comand fastboot w y have wipe with a reset factory with ndivia firmware.

Then i have updated the firmware and controller and finally i have installed full android and i have used the comand fastboot w and I continue with the same bug.

Any solution??

The rest of firmware doesnt have any bug its a wonderfull rom!!!!

Thanks and best regards.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] tailslol:
Yea this issue about the settings is really annoying,it seems totally random.

So you are sure you had a fully updated and set up 3.0?

You installed the full Android and used the w command.

You checked you have no Ethernet cable plugged

And in first boot of full Android you skipped nothing and put your WiFi settings by hand?
[Shield Android TV Android Development] ikgarcia:
Yes i did all step you tell me.

Its not an important bug but its a litle annoying

I tested also to do a fastboot w with all full android Installed and it continues this bug.

And finally do you have/suffer the same bug or not???

So I know some people who happen this bug with this rom.

Thanks for all..
[Shield Android TV Android Development] tailslol:
no i have no bugs on my side.

i can see my data usage untill last month.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] ikgarcia:
During installation of firmware factory,then update firmware factory and wipe all and then put full android and wipe all, i had connected the console by Ethernet to router.

But when I boot at First time full android i disconect Ethernet aire and configure manually wifi.

It can be that the problem???

Thanks.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] tailslol:
yeah it seems full android does not like ethernet because it was not planed in android itself.

it is for phones after all and i dont know a lots of phones with ethernet ports...

but ethernet works,settings can have weird glitches with it...

so maybe this is it.

i never used ethernet here mostly because i have good wifi reception and no plugs for ethernet in my home.

note in my questions message i asked if you pluged ethernet and you didnt answer ;)

---------- Post added at 10:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:05 AM ----------

zulu i found an interesting bug . my usb key Kingston DataTraveler 100 G3 8 Go can be set as extended storage!

my key is in mbr mode and formated to fat32.

but it seems the shield see it as internal sd card. and not as an usb device.

that is strange.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] Dramosith:
well. it fixed already thx to someone. he said to download latest play google by mirror apk. it works perfect now ;)
[Shield Android TV Android Development] ikgarcia:
Yes i have connected by Ethernet not by wifi. Ethernet works Fine the issue is that we are talking about.

You say that you dont have this bug, but you say you pluged stva by wifi, not byEthernet,not??? And to detect the bug you need to have pluged by ethernet.

Thanks Tailslol.

fastboot flash boot boot.img

i updated, use all the binary from the supersu 2.68 if you use the manually way.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] haxorr:
in the first window command prompt:

adb root

adb cannot run as root in production builds
[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
is strange. i tested it now on 16Gb version i can do adb root with the developer boot.img

i have full Android 6 installed

you started the firmware at least one time and checked the correct size of 500Gb hard drive, otherwise factory reset to have 500GB ?
[Shield Android TV Android Development] haxorr:
Yes me too. Android 6 Full ans i flash the Boot.img

no idea
[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
the procedure to install the developer boot.img all correct ? you are sure of this ?

you can try with the new TWRP recovery for marshmallow, but i never tested this:

twrp-20160222-UNOFFICIAL-foster.img
[Shield Android TV Android Development] haxorr:
i have 500GB see attachement
[Shield Android TV Android Development] haxorr:
**** not the developer boot img the recovery boot img
[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
you must use the developer boot.img i linked also the page in my original suggestion. this is the main part, after you can do the manually procedure.

the boot.img that you extract from this developer firmware for Shield Pro 500Gb:

https://developer.nvidia.com/gamewo...NDROID TV Pro Developer&tx=$additional,shield

For others:

we are trying to root the Shield TV 500GB based on this suggestion:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=65606820&postcount=59

this things are not related to the firmware but only try to root the 500Gb model
[Shield Android TV Android Development] haxorr:
see attachement
[Shield Android TV Android Development] haxorr:
And here my adb
[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
reboot and retry the method, it should work.

you already have root when you are able to do adb root and mount the system read and write and write files in the system folder.

you are at one step for the complete installation.

at least, you can try with the supersu.zip 2.49 and extract the files from here

and from inside adb root you can disable selinux with the command: setenforce 0

and after start the daemonsu proces

setenforce 0

/system/xbin/daemonsu --auto-daemon &

P.S.

but maybe after this you need a patched boot image that permit the su stuff to work, otherwise you can have a boot loop but you can reinstall if not work.

if no one solve before, i will produce a patched boot image for the 500Gb model based on the developer boot.img with this procedure:

[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
i not understand german in screenshot, please use english

you used:

setenforce 0

before the daemounsu proces ?
[Shield Android TV Android Development] haxorr:
yes

setenforce 0

/system/xbin/daemonsu --auto-daemon &
[Shield Android TV Android Development] haxorr:
here my adb
[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
ok you tryed everything, we need a patched boot image based on developer boot.img following this procedure:

http://xdaforums.com/apps/supersu/wip-android-6-0-marshmellow-t3219344 first post

i will create one in the next days, if not others are able to do before

when you have the patched boot image, the manual process must work. supersu not take in consideration the strange data partition of 500Gb model

many thanks for your tests.

I assume that you already tested the last TWRP recovery for marshmallow right ?

Seem that others users can flash the supersu on 500Gb model with the last twrp for marshmallow.

you can try to boot he twrp recovery without problems, if not work, you can stop the procedure.

without install but only boot the recovery is safer

before try, reinstall the full android 6 firmware, because now you have inside the old root.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
i not tested, i tested only from windows, but you can try without problems. nothing happen if you try.

i use virtual machine to produce the firmware, after i install the firmware from window because is more convenient with usb and connections....
[Shield Android TV Android Development] wanb1i:
UPDATE: I installed StockRestyle to see if the problem exists there as well. After running the Skype Test on bothe the Moto X Pure & the NSTV I was able to successfully have a video call with audio in bothe directions! YAAAAAA! :cool: However, i'm not sure I can install xPosed on the ROM, so can't change the Hangouts permissions, thus, Hangouts calls still have the same problem. I will back this ROM up via TWRP and install the Full Lollipop ROM this afternoon and update here with the results.

Ok, so still no remote audio in Hangouts. I wiped the device (twice) reinstalled Full Marshmallow on the clean system and now I have Skype working with audio in both directions. Hangouts is the same, no remote audio, even with the permission settings revoked. So, I give up on Hangouts, uninstalled it and will just use Skype.

Thanks to all for the help.

It's a good ROM, but still has issues and needs some work.

[Shield Android TV Android Development] joebobfrank:
Play store seems to be auto-updating to a version 'incompatible' with this device, meaning it will stop launching for you.

If that happens to you the fix is just to uninstall play store updates:

'adb shell pm uninstall com.android.vending'
[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
No for now i don't have a solution for this.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
what problem ? please le me know.

If you find a device with full Marshmallow inside with less problem of this firmware let me know.

Android TV have more problems than full Android also in the basic stuff, but the comparison is ridiculous because Android TV is a stripped down version of full Android.

Two different planets, Therefore you can compare only another full Android version with this firmware.

Zulu don't ask question you know the answers.

common, at least i have the same with my config. but i use wifi usually.

data usage on wifi work well and ethernet work well. but data usage on ethernet not work.

i can suggest only to try without xposed, in logcat i see something related to xposed. but sould be a stupid problem to solve.

If you don't have a wifi ac router ethernet is the best solution. But if you have a good ac router wifi on Shield TV work wonderful.

However, for now, data usage statistic on ethernet is not a so big problem. I think
