just to be safe and to double check i flashed on 1.5, installation was successful but do i also need to flash the blob, even though i was allready on 1.5? thanks
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Sh0X31:
If you come from other 1.5 based ROM you don't need the blob
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Lawlrus:
I haven't gotten around to trying phhs on this device but I use it on my 6p and like it, out of curiosity, what version. Did you flash? Newest? I think its 256?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] TotallyAnxious:
I flashed the latest unofficial build of magisk 10, a modded phh's comes in it. I modified the ROM zip to not flash SuperSU.

I do not know if recall program is still available.

You should check with nvidia support to find out if the recall program is still available.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] golvellius:
Thanks .. I have install it and it works .. it's a Safety net problem .. when I installed the Rom , first I do not do wipe , thats the problem ...

It's hardware video decoding playback working ? I have used Amazon prime video and when I have played a film 1h and 30 mins .. it goes from 60%. To 20% .. its normal ?

Thanks for all .. and Merry Christmast to all !! And have a happy New Year ..:laugh:

Hi,I installed the rom and the wifi 5ghz doesn't work...why? Anyone have the same problem?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] jemail:
Check the channel number 5ghz is set to on your router. I have found that 5ghz channels over 52 are not detected by the WiFi chip on the nvidia shield tablet. I know that channel 48 works.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] kbeezie:
Thus far this has been the best rom I've found for my K1 tablet, doesn't give me newer than Android 7.0 but everything as far as I can tell works seamlessly and quickly for me and I'm liking the Magick rooting method (updated to v18 without issues) and what it has to offer with some of the modules. Until they can get 7.1.2 or even Oreo running seamlessly (without losing bluetooth or HW acceleration) on the K1 I'll be using this rom.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] DFA1:
Did that work for you?

---------- Post added at 11:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:51 PM ----------

I screwed up whatever previous rom I had on my Shield while attempting to edit the build.prop file into thinking it was a Samsung Galaxy S8 so that I could play Elder Scrolls Blades on it.

This rom appears to be running perfectly on my tablet now. Anything else I should add/change to it? What other apps/mods are people using on their Shields with this rom?

Well, now oddly enough. Installing Swiftkey keyboard causes a boot loop ?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] fumiga:
Hi. I'm having this problem, after I fastboot install the blob, the tablet gets stuck with a booting downloaded image line on the bottom of bootloader menu. I then have to press the power button until it turns off. When i try to enter recovery i no longer have twrp, to install this ROM. I'm on the latest stock official firmware.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] surfer300ZX:
My wireless stops working randomly and won't work until I shut down and turn on again. I have ruled out my network, which is functioning perfectly. I know this tablet only can see the lower 5 gigahertz frequencies but this problem seems to happen on 2.4 gigahertz so my problem does not seem to be related to any 5 gigahertz limitation. Anyone else have this problem?

Nvidia Games doesn't work, App Loads but cannot sign in?

I love this rom! I installed this to get nvidia games back, previously was running LOS, but decided to give this one a try.

However, I can't sign into Nvidia games, checked my dns log and filter, and nothing on my network is preventing me from connecting to Nvidia Games.

How do I get Nvidia Games working on this rom? The app loads, I can see the list of games offered, but can't sign in when I hit play...
[Shield Tablet Android Development] TSpartan:
Did you find the solution for that?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] nuclear_bullet:
No, I never did, was hoping maybe some devs can explain why? Does this work in stock Nvidia rom? I don't have much experience with stock rom as it quickly started to slow down after installing... So I reached for LOS, then Debloaded and settled on Debloaded since it was the closest to the stock without all the crapware...
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Jz5678910:
Are you blocking ads ? Because it won't let you log in if you are. Once your logged in you can enable ad blocking again. I know that sounds dumb, but it's a real issue.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] nuclear_bullet:
Do you mean AdAway that's packaged into this ROM? I disabled it and it still says can't connect to Nvidia. I checked my DNS logs and it still can't connect. I even tried it over my phone's 4G Hotspot mode to bypass my landline to see if it was some issue on the WAN side not connecting me.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Jz5678910:
Adaway blocks it as well as DNS based and VPN based ad blocking. Outside of that I'm not too sure. Maybe clear cache/data for the app? Could you post a screenshot of the exact message? I'd like to see if it's the same one I was getting originally.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] nuclear_bullet:
This is the screenshot I took of the K1 with my phone's camera when I try to access the Nvidia Games. I can see the list of games, but trying to login or trying to launch it shows that screen...
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Jz5678910:
That was the same error I was getting. But if you've eliminated adblocking then honestly I'm not too sure. The only other thing I could maybe see working, go into settings-apps-nvidia games, uninstall updates and then grab a version of the apk that's maybe 2 or 3 versions old and try to log in. You don't want to go to far back or the log in won't carry over when you update back to latest. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Outside of basic troubleshooting, you're probably looking at a clean flash somewhere down the road.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] nuclear_bullet:
Thanks for your help Jz5678910, I'm gonna try to roll back the Nvidia Games app, if that doesn't work, I think I will do another clean flash of this image. This image is my current favorite one since it is essentially stock Nvidia rom without the bloat...

:)
[Shield Tablet Android Development] weedy2887:
Any chance of a OG pyrotab release?

I know you said you don't have time but it's not like we still get updates.

I'm mostly having a ***** of a time trying to reset my tablet today since nvidia never made a 5.4 recovery image and links are starting to die...
[Shield Tablet Android Development] jemail:
This ROM works on a og shield tablet and should work on a pyro tablet too.

See my post earlier in this thread about this for more details.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] elalexdesiempre:
I tried this rom but I was not able to sign in using nvidia games app.

I’ve been trying different custom roms and I was unable to sign in with nvidia app.

I then went back to lineageos and tried moonlight game streaming app.

It did not work with Lineageos unofficial rom 15.1 due to hardware acceleration with nvidia Oreo roms, but it work with lineageos 14.1

For now, I’ve been using lineageos unofficial rom 14.1 and moonlight works for game streaming pc to tablet. Only tested my home network. Might try this debloated rom again and use moonlight.

But if I’m gonna use moonlight app I may as well get newer tablet or an iPad.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] alcopsy:
No problem here
[Shield Tablet Android Development] siuraczewski:
Impressive room fast and easy tell me how to not love you for this .
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Omizuke:
Every time I updated mine past it's 5.1.1. I would then have problems with screenshots. I take a lot when gaming. And often with would have this problem where it would freeze and the take a bunch in a row but not save any. This happened with every ROM I tried, Stocked, and root, Optimized Stock (from GtrCraft) And this one about 2 years ago. (HyperStock_Shield_K1_(5.2_-_NRD90M) still have the file :P) And they all had the same issue so it was a Nvidia bug.

So can anyone play a game for like over an hour and then go crazy with the screenshots. I take a LOT from my games.

Oh and how friendly is Magisk with Titanium Backup?

Man, mine works fine as it is, but some newer games won't install on 5.1.1 :( this suck.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] ToXIc Games:
Does HDMI still work with this?

As ive heard some custom roms mess it up.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] shaft187:
For some reason this zip fails the check and won't flash in TWRP. Is this version broken/corrupted? I re-downloaded and attempted to install it twice.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] polisami:
Hi

The links to the rom and blob files are not working. Could you please post the correct links? Thanks in advance :)
[Shield Tablet Android Development] polisami:
I too facing the same issue.

Error says,

"This package is for "shieldtablet" devices; this is a "".

Updater process ended with ERROR: 7

Error installing zip file '/data/media/0/Stock+_5.4.1_Sheild_K1.zip'"

Any idea?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] crl0901:
I had this error and was able to get it to install by using TWRP v3.5.0_9-0

However, when it boots into the OS, at the setup screen I get constant error saying various NVIDIA services have stopped. I can't clear the pop-ups, they just keep coming, so it makes using the tablet impossible. Anyone else had this before?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] kripple:
I was able to get past this error by opening / editing the "updater-script" file found in the \META-INF\com\google\android folder within the Zip. Remove the first two lines that perform this version check. These lines appear as follows...

assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "shieldtablet" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "shieldtablet" || getprop("ro.product.name") == "shieldtablet" ||

abort("This package is for \"shieldtablet\" devices; this is a \"" + getprop("ro.product.device") + "\"."););

Once removed use this updated Zip to flash the ROM to you NVidia Shield K1 tablet.

It's been working great for me.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] JBT1:
Hi, download links seems still dead. Did you get a copy of the ROM ? Any link to share ?

Thanks in advance
[Shield Tablet Android Development] jaweinre:
Finally after years of having a useless stuttering mess with stock 5.4, I am able to use my tablet again.

Thank you author
[Shield Tablet Android Development] sagman76:
I have an ROW LTE and this works great. I only use my Shield Tablet for Gaming and mainly a Hyperspin / Retroarch set up. I have been on nad tried all the Lineage 15/16// AEX etc and the 5.8 AOSP was a great ROM but had nvmem issues in flycast which I use the most and play a lot of DC/Naomi etc. Reverting back to this Stock ROM fixed it as the developer advised it was probably a ROM issue after trying numerous fixes on the core. I can also use NVIDIA apps again (GAMES/Dabbler all work) . Battery isn't quite as good as some of the fore mentioned ROMS but ill take the ability to use it as I need too over some batter life. Cheers to the Author.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] xconwayx:
I had tried every ROM out there, since the discontinuation of Lineage, I reflashed this yesterday. It honestly is working great. Just takes up more space on the already small storage space than other ROMS.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] boloq:
I have usb drivers installed under windows 10 and successfully

a. unlocked the device, then,

b. fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.5.1_9-0-shieldtablet.img, then

c. fastboot flash staging blob

and on restarting, the tablet cannot boot and leaving a blank screen. Good luck that i was still able to use fastboot to flash all the files from nvidia recovery 5.3.0 zip, by following the sequence in step 8 here:

Flashing the SHIELD Device

docs.nvidia.com

now I can boot into the fresh system, reenabled USB debugging again.

@xconwayx hi, could you help to give the exact procedures/commands to successfully flash this "Stock+ 5.4.1" zip? Do I need to install TWRP recovery? Current state of the device is unlocked and containing a fresh Stock 5.3.0. Please help! thanks in advance!!! :)
[Shield Tablet Android Development] xconwayx:
Copied from the front page of this thread.

Install:

Download the ROM & blob

(Do a full wipe) recommend - in TWRP, but FYI I had a hard time getting to bootloader and flashing blob, but I did.

flash the blob -> fastboot flash staging blob

reboot to recovery and flash the Stock+ - In TWRP

reboot & enjoy
[Shield Tablet Android Development] boloq:
Thanks! so that means I don't need to extract the boot.img from the STOCK+ zip and flash individually.

Could you confirm the following:

1. copy the Stock+.zip to a SDcard

2. boot recovery to TWRP

3. under TWRP to flash the zip (which TWRP button you used?)

Thanks in advance!
[Shield Tablet Android Development] boloq:
sad to say, now my shield tablet is DEAD. upon flashing the official nvidia recovery 5.2 for a few times, screen of the table cannot come up. somehow, if I power&vol-, windows 10 can still connect it to fastboot...

any can help?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] xconwayx:
Download TWRP for Nvidia Shield.

fastboot flash recovery *location of TWRP*

fastboot reboot recovery
[Shield Tablet Android Development] boloq:
"flash staging blob" before "flash recovery"?

also, do i have to root the device?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] xconwayx:
I wouldn't worry about the blob right now. TWRP is the main priority. Same with rooting.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Bacla:
I have the same issue. Did you find a solution?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] crl0901:
No, I ended up using LineageOS and that worked well.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Bacla:
Ok Thanks. I've installed and it is perfectly working!
[Shield Tablet Android Development] krys42-_-:
How did you fixed that issue?

I had this error and was able to get it to install by using TWRP v3.5.0_9-0

However, when it boots into the OS, at the setup screen I get constant error saying various NVIDIA services have stopped. I can't clear the pop-ups, they just keep coming, so it makes using the tablet impossible. Anyone else had this before?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] _benedict_:
Hi! Considering the move as well, how is your experience after a few months? How is battery life?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] xconwayx:
My battery died, so I had to solder it straight to power.

I can't give fault to the developers of any ROM. I think this hardware is just not made to handle much.

I have to OC just to make it usable for watching HideoutTV. I then had to mount a small fan to it to keep it from overheating and crashing every 5 minutes.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] moonhop7:
Thank you for this rom!! I just flashed this today and I can't believe how well done it is! If someone could take this rom and bump it up to 8-9 this would be amazing and save the Shields last remaining days. If anyone has a k1 this is the answer , it's a lightweight well thought out effort and really breathed new life back into these devices .
[Shield Tablet Android Development] MaRtYy01:
I tried out different roms these days and so far I had the worst experience with this one. Seems that even with heavy debloating the stock rom is just no good-the battery drains fast and it lags a lot, on LOS (both 14 and 15.1) it's far better.

I suspect the lag is because the ram usage is so high on this rom that is constantly uses the zram(swap) memory. The remaining nvidia services still seem to be constantly running and that with the google play services is just too much.

LOS with no gapps(aurora store instead) is the way to go for this device, unless you need gapps for some games that just require to be installed from the google play, in which case I would still recommend LOS+gapps pico. Just remember to activate zram manually on 14.1 as it seems to be disabled by default on the latest 2019 nightly, not sure about the 2021 build though.

On the positive note I can confirm it works fine on my OG Shield tablet 16gb, it's not just for the K1.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] windyhawk:
With this ROM, I can't get pass the WIFI authentication. I tried both 2.4G and 5G bands to no avail. I don't know what the problem is. I guess I will have to go to other ROM for now
[Shield Tablet Android Development] moonhop7:
I have not had any issues personally. I just played R-Type the other night (for quite awhile) and noticed much better battery life than before . I defiantly have WiFi as I really like cloud gaming on these now.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] windyhawk:
it looks like it has compatibility issues with my router. I can connect to other WIFI signals but not my own home WIFI. I will find out what the problem is - maybe my router is too new and utilizes some authentication security method that this old android system can't recognize
[Shield Tablet Android Development] moonhop7:
That could be. I have had some difficulty with legacy devices connecting to Comcast/ Xfinity in the past .
[Shield Tablet Android Development] bad1080:
i had something like this way back when and i think the wifi channel on the router has to be below 100!?

here they discuss it: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforc...d-tablet-cant-see-5-ghz-wifi-network/1396215/
[Shield Tablet Android Development] ian619420:
Just a heads up when i play games on tablet it heats up, but it has rebooted 2 times when it got pretty warm.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] kepaware:
This rom is valid for tablets that have the battery problem, which were replaced? Is there a danger of being disabled remotely from Nvidia? Thank you
[Shield Tablet Android Development] k3wlar:
rom flash can be used at the boot LP?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Lawlrus:
Anyone have an md5? Flashed it and it just sat at the nvidya logo
[Shield Tablet Android Development] BIGWORM:
Same. Wife let it sit for a good 15 minutes while I was playing Killer Instinct lol. I rebooted, and it stayed at the black screen (APX mode). Fastboot flashed the recovery again.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Lawlrus:
Why did you have to reflash your recovery ?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] BIGWORM:
Just to make sure. For some reason, the blob, for the life of me, wouldn't flash, so I rebooted bootloader, tried to go from recovery from there, but it just rebooted the bootloader instead. All that was before I was stuck in APX mode for a while. Held the power for a good 40 seconds, then was able to boot back into bootloader, and just to make sure, I reflashed recovery to make sure I could access it.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] KentuckyGuy447:
Did a clean install coming from CM13 and it bootloops. Flashed blob too. Yes I wiped /data, /system, /cache and dalvik cache. Wonder what it could be?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Lawlrus:
Already been stated me and another guy had the issue. Currently we are waiting on someone to give us a hash to verify the download. Mega might be corrupting it during the download
[Shield Tablet Android Development] KentuckyGuy447:
Yes I seen but why not another report? It helps bring awareness no?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Lawlrus:
If the thread was bogged down with other people posting sure it would.

But one report versus two versus three doesn't change anything when its the most recent post. Its not like the op is waiting for five reports before he foes something. When he's on he will see it and we will go from there.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] KentuckyGuy447:
Seeing as how I posted info regarding the ROM I see no harm in it. Not like one little post regarding the process I went about installing his ROM is gonna hurt anyone/thing. Let's be civil and stop the pointless debating.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] @rj*n:
For all those stuck at boot, try using blob from [6.0.1] Optimized Stock Shield Tablet Original [4.3.0] & K1 [1.4.0] [28/09/16]

Or if that doesn't work, flash the 1.4.0 ROM and blob first.. and flash this ROM afterwards. That should work.

#disclaimer - if that doesn't work, don't kill me ??
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Lawlrus:
Shouldn't need blobs as I took the 1.5 ota before I even rooted it.

Actually kind of surprised no one has coughed up a md5 hash. Makes me wonder if people even know what they are anymore lol
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Lare2:
So anyone has the MD5's for this files
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Anjustice1:
This is what i got for v1.5.

MD5 File checksum: 47652F5A6C8709322563CEC3AA28BCA5

Filename: HyperStock_MRA58K_Shield_K1.zip

rom works, running it now.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Lawlrus:
Thanks for the md5 hash, and I don't really get it because it verified fine. Guess I'll try to flash it again tonight and let it sit for longer. I feel like last time I let it sit for 10 minutes+ but I dunno
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Miscuser:
Got this installed and seems to be working well, but it seems that any sort of haptic feedback options are missing. Was that intentional?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] max_n2f:
i did that ....once it finishes apps optimizing it shuts down immediately
[Shield Tablet Android Development] northmendo:
I can't get it to boot either. It just sits on the nvidia screen. I've gone through the whole process 3 times. Even without the blob the second time. No luck here.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Wi1son:
Thanks for this! Was on a 1.5 Stock k1 and just dirty flashed this ROM without the blob (Since I was on stock 1.5 already). Everything so smooth. I have a question though, I don't use any of the gaming features, so what Nvidia apps could I disable, or which ones should I keep? Thanks!
[Shield Tablet Android Development] fukowski:
Hi [MENTION=2456950]Sh0X31[/MENTION], I am using your ROM, its perfect for my needs, could you be so kind to prepare something similar with the new 7.0 image?

Thanks in advance..
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Sh0X31:
Yes but the kitchen have some problems with the Image
[Shield Tablet Android Development] @rj*n:
Trying so hard to keep myself from pushing that Upgrade button on OTA ?

Can't wait for yours to be up [MENTION=2456950]Sh0X31[/MENTION]

Good luck mate ☺?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Rhadamanthis:
Hi, i have a big problems.

im in nougat and i would to install this rom.

ive unlocked, flashed twrp, flashed rom, reboot fastboot and typing command bloob but stuck on screen or cold bug linux

[Shield Tablet Android Development] smokinjoe2122:
[MENTION=2456950]Sh0X31[/MENTION] hasn't posted an updated build yet as he's stated he's having some issues with the image. Are you trying go from 7.0 back to 6.0.1?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Rhadamanthis:
now trying
[Shield Tablet Android Development] @rj*n:
If everything's working fine so far on your tab, you should just wait for a few days while the OP works on the ROM update.

*Patience is a virtue* :D
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Rhadamanthis:
[MENTION=863014]@rj*n[/MENTION] i say rulez and no asking eta....first

[Shield Tablet Android Development] spetzuu:
"Copy blob into you adb folder & run following command

Code:

fastboot flash staging blob"

I assume this has to be done from computer, right? Also where is ADB folder?

Thx, sorry kinda rusty haven't messed with tablet since I rooted it 2 years ago
