[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j.samuel:
I know Android TV's like Sony have these apps, but I can't seem to find them anywhere to use on the nVidia Shield TV

Any ideas?
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] honosuseri:
I don't know that the TV's actually do. It's a shame they are dragging their heels over bringing these apps to android TV. You have a couple of options really...

1) Install SPMC (or KODI). There are 3rd party add-ons for BBC and ITV, FTV guide will give you live TV channels. Kodi can be customised nicely , I've set it to auto start and use it as a homescreen for the SHIELD.

2) You can "mod" your SHIELD TV and flash an android ROM on to it. This will mean you can then use the Android apps as you're no longer on Android TV. This might be a bit too extreme for you though.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelduy:
How you can make shield to auto start kodi? Could you give us some step by step please..

Thanks..
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] honosuseri:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.autostart&hl=en

Install that...open it. Choose which app you want to autostart and no you don't need to root the SHIELD TV. I use SPMC as it's being tailored for the SHIELD TV but you can use KODI instead :)
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wakkaday:
any apps on demand?
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Creosote:
the nvidia shield tv has chromecast (now google cast) built into it, casting all4 to it from another device works better than sideloading the all4 app. that's the best way to get all4 on it, as there's no all4 kodi add-on.

you can sideload My5 if you get an apk from another device, the demand 5 kodi add-on is dead. you need to use right stick mouse emulation, as it's a touchscreen app.

you can also sideload itv hub, but the kodi add-on is better.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] honosuseri:
Great post! :)

I don't personally do the casting and I use Android not Apple stuff. However I do know Kodi has Airplay compatibility. I've never tried it but maybe that will help iphone/ipad users do the same trick?

I never thought of extracting the My5 apk from my molly...thank you! I might just give that a try
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Creosote:
I believe that you can cast from the ios version of all4 as well, yes.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Slayerkodi:
if anyone has a working my5 apk please direct it this way, have not found one apk that will work, always some issue.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Creosote:
you're probably finding that it's working as best as it's going to. you can only navigate with the right stick emulating a mouse, and it doesn't work great doing that either.

I got it by installing it on my phone then using es file explorer to back it up.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Slayerkodi:
I've got it but it gives error message when trying to play any video, both on my phone and shield TV
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PHYSC-1:
To be fair regarding apps on demand try Pluto it's linking to youtube live channels and other sources,and also actually make a playlist once in youtube live to fill with playlists of the youtube live channels you want click the + next to playlist when it's open right top of the list.That's one set of live on demand you can use which is none commercial tv oriented.But for true tv on demand get a smart tv with it built in,or a tv box which is made to have the on demand services incorporated otherwise use kodi or spmc and add on demand channels from vido addons section.

ok my5 i just downloaded from playstore on my phone then transferred the apk, same with 4od - if you dont have a phone or pc then just download on shield using aptoide or chrome. bbc iplayer already installed on shield but i use the kodi addon instead, itv player i installed through aptoide and it works but i use the kodi addon aswel with this one. there is actually catchup services for channels dave and really aswel as a kodi addon.

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] jpzsports:
Since the HTC 10 comes with the Boost+ app preloaded, I'm curious to see whether you all are keeping it enabled or disabling this app. Do you find it make a beneficial impact?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] tw1tch175:
I disabled all it's features except the 1080p gaming mode which is nice for battery life.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Andyw2100:
Is this Boost+ app something Verizon may have removed from the Verizon version of the phone? I don't seem to have it--at least not as an app I can find with that name.

Edit: It turns out it was not on the phone, but I found it in the Play Store, and was able to install it that way.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Haldi4803:
Disabled Smartboost because it closed my apps when I wanted to use them.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] weidnerj:
One feature of Boost is that it can lock an application by enforcing use of finger print scanner or pin code per application. So if you don't want someone to pick up your phone and open your Facebook, enable the function in Boost+
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] ranphi:
I'm not seeing any option to use fingerprints to lock/unlock apps with the Boost+ app, it only offers the option to use a pattern. Anyone else seeing this? Is this the only method Boost+ uses for locking/unlocking apps? If so, seems awfully dumb and disappointing that they won't let you use fingerprints instead.

EDIT: Never mind, figured it out. There was an update needed for the Boost+ app for this particular feature to be available. (Not sure why, though, the Play Store app didn't notify me there was an update for the Boost+ app since it came installed on my phone out of the box...)
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] jpzsports:
For those of you that have been using the phone for a few days, have you found a difference (either positive or negative) with enabling the "Smart Boost" feature in the Boost+ app?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] anatole78:
I've had it for 6 days now and nope, no difference at all on my side (in terms of battery life and performance) so I keep it off. Why bother killing background apps with 4GB of RAM ?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] datafoo:
By Android design, smart boost is a bad app.

You don't need to clean ram on Android, this isn't Windows. It'll end up doing as reported above, closing good apps instead of bad ones.

Android memory management is designed to load Ram for better performance.

Only good features are cache cleaning and app lock.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Cro Cop:
One thing that I don't understand.

The cache cleaning feature in the Boost+ app, is it the same as "wipe cache partition" in the recovery menu and is it

really necessary to delete

the cache ?

I thought that cache is good because with it apps open quicker.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] dohcvtec:
Hey everyone,

My personal experience with this app is this:

For some reason my phone was little slow now, so I activated the the smart boost option and it started flying. Got fast(back to normal).
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Isidrology:
so basically.. the app it self is useful in terms of decluttering your phone and make it operate faster.. One thing it fails to mention is that clearing cache and memory means resetting all the apps to default. which means constant request to allow or deny apps access to contacts, location etc.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Badelhas:
Wow, that sucks. So it's best not to to use it, then...

Cheers
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Isidrology:
Yeah after finding it out I deleted it. there seems to be other issues with Nougat, but at least deleting this reduced my stress level in debugging this new update...
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Isidrology:
Just an update, the App seems to work fine, the reset of app permission settings is due to an encrypted SD Card not formatted after a wipe.

I formatted the SD Card, copy existing content back into the card and now resets do not reset app permission.

I then reinstalled Boost+ App and it seems to work fine without resetting app permission.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Badelhas:
Should we leave the battery optimization on? Is there anything we are better setting off?

Cheers

Enviado do meu HTC 10 através de Tapatalk
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Isidrology:
I am leaving it on now, I have not been able to test it as much due to the resetting app permissions. I'll be able to test it now though. So i'll let you guys know if i find it not as worthy as I'd hope.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] BillTheCat:
Would you guys recommend Boost, or do you think Greenify is the better way to go for battery life?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Coolkid90:
What did you find out? I'm not a fan of boost + ..would like to uninstall or disable it but phones not rooted. Yet anyway
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Isidrology:
The issue with the permission is not to do with the boost + app.

I have the boost + add still working and it's okay.

my phone is over 2 years old. so I change the battery and now it lasts more than a day!
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Coolkid90:
OK cool then I'll start using it then. Just sound like just another cleaning app that not any good.

P. S ur using all the options in the app?

And thanks for replying
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Isidrology:
This is the only clean up tool I use, as i do notice the phone is faster when using it..

I optimise all foreground apps

and for background apps it depends on what you use and what fore I guess.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Coolkid90:
Cool thinks again for replying

Makes sense about the background apps.. Android does a good job on its own from what I understand managing that.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] DummyPLUG:
Remember to disable all telemetry and ad options, and I found it is not good for me as the app and its service (com.htc.pitroad com.htc.pitroad.enhancerservice) use more battery than it can save on my phone.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Badelhas:
How do we do that?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] DummyPLUG:
I don't have boost+ install right now so this is from my memory.

at boost+ top right corner setting, then disable the ads/telemetry setting, there are at 2, 3 of them

Boost+ don't have these in old version, a few months ago it start include these setting.

don't forget the HTC sense also had similar setting, remember to disable them.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Aryamehr1366:
it is useful indeed . i optimize some foreground apps and games to run faster with lower resolution .

but foreground App optimization not working on AOSP roms ... does anybody know how to make it work on AOSP Roms?? :confused:
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] MajesticTwelve:
The option to optimize foreground app disappeared after installing Oreo. HTC U11 didn't have this option from the beginning (on Nougat) so it looks like it won't come back.

EDIT: It turns out this option has been moved to the Power Optimizer menu (you can see it after tapping each app there).
[K3 Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RocketPenguin1:
For the past half a year, I have been using Carbon rom on my Lenovo K3 Note, and it was fine, until it started slowing down. So, I decided to change it to another rom (Nexus), and the next thing I know, my SIM card is no longer detected.

Turns out, the IMEI was wiped.

How would I go about restoring this?

The things I have done:

MauiMETA = Never detects my phone. Places it into meta mode, but the light never turns yellow. Tried on 3 computers, and had no success on getting it to work. For two of the three, I couldn't find drivers for mt65xx and CDC.

MTK Droid Tool: The option to change the IMEI remained permanently greyed out, and was never given the option to change it.

Official rom: Didn't work. Currently using it, and still the same error (Null). Tried factory resetting it, no change.

Engineering mode: Always gave me an error when trying to enter command, never accepted it.

IMEI.EXE: Everything worked, except the IMEI's never changed in my device.

Have tried multiple roms, multiple wipes, SPFlash, CWM (Even ended up installing it again because I wiped my entire phone with SPFlash), and pretty much every trick I could find.

I need this think working in 12 hours.

EDIT: Problem was resolved with trying "official" roms until one allowed me to update within the rom. The Update that was installed via Lenovo's bootloader fixed it. The finished product was that of an untouched phone; I had to reinstall a bootloader, root, and a new rom.
[K3 Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
If flashing stock doesn't help, and you have no kind of backup of where the imei resides, you likely need a service center to hopefully help.

But know that any talk of manually inputting imei numbers is not allowed on XDA, as its illegal in most areas.

Good luck!
[K3 Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RocketPenguin1:
So it isn't as simple as entering the two codes under my battery into some location, and rebooting?

I'm currently in Europe, and have no idea how any of that works (Studying abroad).
[K3 Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
That talk is not allowed, as I said. Inputting numbers falls under tampering and is illegal in most areas, as I said.

So try flashing stock, if you can. But without some sort of backup, you may be out of luck unfortunately.

Please keep number inputting talk off XDA, or I will need to close this thread. :good:
[K3 Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RocketPenguin1:
UPDATE: So, I flashed another "official" rom, which initially didn't work. However, it did give me the option to upgrade, which I did. With that upgrade, the IMEI is back, and my SIM card works.

Thing is, the ROM is almost entirely in Chinese.

How would I change my rom without wiping the IMEI?
[K3 Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hard_raju:
Please post the link to download the ROM you used.

I have the same issue and even service centers failed to attempt this.

Thanx and regards

I am having some issues with setting my proxy settings on my Tilt. The HTTP proxy is wiped out once they are set.

Here is what I am doing to create the problem

I go to Start ->Settings ->Connection Tab ->Connections ->Advance Tab ->Select Networks and change both settings in this menu to use "My Work Network" for both settings, and then set the proxy settings for "My Work Network" to use my corporate proxy, everything works fine until I enable a WLAN connection. After I enable the connection the proxy information disappears.

I guess I don't understand why the proxy settings disappear once a live WLAN connections is set.

Does anybody know how I can fix this.

I have tried running the no proxy cab which didn't help.

Thanks for any help

I am so frustrated I want to take this thing back to the store if I can't use it on my corporate network.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] RPG0:
it probably does this since the proxy gets sent to you once you connect to a network, and the WiFi connection you are connecting to tells the Kaiser it needs no proxy... your corporate network should sent the proxy automatically, mine does (the wired one, not WiFi)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Arlop:
I called HTC support and they said this was a Mobile 6 bug. They said that they are going to work with MS to create a fix for this issue.

My thoughts are on this, is this going to affect a massive amount of user who have to connect through proxy on their corporate network.

This sucks cause I'm to cheap to pay for the data plan.

Holding my breath for a QFE from Microsoft. I sure not to soon though.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] neil.young:
That isn't a WM6 bug. I have an ASUS device, which makes no problems with the proxy settings. It is probably a WM bug combined with the HTC specials.

[Xperia Z2 General] FiveInline:
I have two Xperia Z2 D6503 bought from the same place, and i can see a very noticeable different in therm of color..

The first one i bought seem to be the most accurate, and when i compare it to the second Z2 i have, the first thing i noticed was the blue color in the menu.

The first one shows a dark blue, while the second shows a lighter blue.. In a youtube video i watch and paused, the first one shows green in the trees and grass like i expect it to, while the second its more mint/lighter green in comparison..

So, it seems to me that the first one has more richer vibrant color, while the second seems to be more off, more cool in the color spectre.. Both is set to 0 in white calibration, and even if i try to i cant get the second to be as vibrant as the first.. The second one still looks nice, but this makes me wonder that there is different panels in them..

Anyone?
