Factory Reset From TWRP

Hi All,

I have a 2017 Pro Shield tv that is rooted with SU, bootloader unlocked. I don't have TWRP installed but can boot it just fine using fastboot. Can I safely do a wipe factory reset from TWRP? I do have TWRP backups in case something goes wrong. I want to try a factory reset because my shield has been acting strange with leanback launcher and other apps constantly crashing. Also after a fresh restart or boot the apps are slow to open and usually crash. After the shield has been on for awhile it seems to generally run fine.

thanks in advance for any answers.

I'm also trying to figure out if nandroid backups will work with TWRP on a 16GB 2017 (darcy). Can't find a definite answer anywhere.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] jionny:
When I first got my shield I tried doing a backup on my shield pro and bricked it had to rma
[Shield Android TV Android Development] DJarkIV:
Really? As long as your backup didn't mess with your bootloader you should have been able to restore your system and vender factory images through fastboot without a problem. That is unless the Pro has something else unique going on I'm not aware of.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] jionny:
I really couldn't believe it, I booted into twrp, clicked backup it backed up fine and when I rebooted it was bricked, all I could get out of it was No command
[Shield Android TV Android Development] ClintE1956:
If you're using newer shield tv pro (or emmc probably), connect controller to usb port closest to hdmi port, power on, when you get to no command with droid guy laying on his back with red thingy, play with controller buttons to get stock recovery menu.

I can't get twrp to boot or flash, so using stock recovery w/ magisk for root. Seems to work. Kind of a pain not to have nandroid backup though; would be rather time consuming to reflash stock, root, set up everything, etc.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] jionny:
Didn't have a problem getting back into recovery after repeatedly trying, just there was nothing there, no matter what I did it would go back to no command
[Shield Android TV Android Development] ClintE1956:
I had to disconnect power before connecting usb to satv controller, then started playing with buttons at the no command screen. I think A, B, X, Y are functional but only when physically connected via usb. I used port closest to hdmi after reading posts and/or other sites about best method to get to stock recovery menu. Also had micro usb connected to pc at that time. If you can't get there that way, I'm not sure what to do.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] ClintE1956:
Finally got twrp to flash & run successfully on new satv pro.

Flashed a usb boot image (didn't work):

http://www.videomap.it/forum/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=1580&start=410#p3636

Then before flashing stock recovery back, tried flashing twrp 3.1.1-1 and it worked! Didn't immediately restart satv or just give error message on pc like before.

Next step, attempt flashing 3.2.0-0. Anyone using this latest version on new satv pro?

Hello ，do it work on NVIDIA SHIELD TV China edition？

Any way to recover after flashing TWRP

Bought a new shield tv ( 16GB/2017 )

I did not read the fine-print notes for the 1.5 nougat full android ROM (zulu99), it was trying to say that flashing TWRP will brick your device... (should have been in bold/large font/red IMO)

It said to either:

1. only boot to that recovery image, dont flash it

2. immediately flash superSU as thats what "fixes things" and allows it to boot.

I flashed the "UNOFFICIAL-twrp-3.0.2-ALL-Shields-build2.zip" recovery and was hoping to flash superSU at the next boot....bricked it.

Any way to get my device into fastboot mode now?

Tried booting while holding A and B on a USB keyboard as I did earlier, it ends up at a corrupt message and then a blank screen.

C:\Users\username\Downloads\Shield\unzipped>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
target reported max download size of 67108864 bytes
sending 'recovery' (15140 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.361s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.681s]
finished. total time: 1.042s

C:\Users\username\Downloads\Shield\unzipped>fastboot reboot
rebooting...

finished. total time: 0.079s

edit: Exchanged that brick, got another 2017 device. This time I unlocked,flashed system, flashed vendor, fastboot -w, and then BOOTED to this recovery.img.

Yet again its not booting into 3.0.2 recovery, and neither can I get into fastboot.

Another brick?

Does this recovery not work as claimed with the latest 2017 16GB Shield TV ?

update: returned the second device too.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] kobos311:
It may be suggested to get Nvidia Developer forums access, it's sad to see the communities either lack of need for customization of the Shield, or lack of Nvidia Hardware training...

Just a.. Nudge.

Feel free to pm me.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] Steel01:
Question: why is anyone using this over official? Afaik, there aren't any problems with official. If there are, they need reported and I need to go fix them.

@ comment about lack of development: Lineage is still being worked on. Isn't a whole lot of discussion here about it, but I'm still actively supporting custom rom development. Just not any derivative roms like there are for the shield tablet.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] britoso:
Is there an official release for Darcy (2017) ? I only see a release for Foster (2015)

https://twrp.me/nvidia/nvidiahshieldandroidtv.html

Zulu99 (left xda) points at this thread as the only recovery for both 2015 and 2017... but this bricked two devices for me.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] Steel01:
Foster and darcy are unified in everything I release. The official twrp recovery and Lineage releases both support several models. Namely here: foster_e (2015 emmc), foster_e_hdd (sata/pro), and darcy (2017 emmc). In theory the china version will boot too.

And it should be pretty hard to brick an nvidia device. Now, foster did have some *really* bad bugs earlier in relation to flashing and bootloader stuff. But I haven't seen those lately. Should always be able to use the controller to get to the bootloader and flash a new recovery and all. If something doesn't work right, report it in the appropriate thread.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] britoso:
Do you have a link to said releases?

I had given up on nvidia shield after two bricks (never gets to fastboot/bootloader after about 20 tries...), but i may attempt it again if I see proof it works :)

Edit: found it https://xdaforums.com/shield-tv/development/recovery-twrp-shield-android-tv-t3510456
[Shield Android TV Android Development] Steel01:
I'm the twrp and lineage maintainer. The official releases on each site. So, for twrp, you already linked it.

I've had some issues with getting to fastboot on darcy, but that normally is due to the controllers battery being dead. Trying plugging it in for a while before trying to get to the bootloader again. Apparently it doesn't get enough power from just being plugged into to the device during boot. Once it had some charge, holding a/b worked for me every time.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] britoso:
Thanks for replying Steel01! I love TWRP on my other devices!!!

I didnt get the version with game controller, so i was getting in via a usb keyboard and pressing keys A and B.

After flashing/booting this recovery it refused to get in and complained about corruption.

Maybe it was the system/vendor ROM that caused it, but the zulu99 full android ROM is the only ROM I am interested in. Spoiled by having the same full android experience on my nexus player for the last 3 years.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] tuszyn:
Hi,

I'm trying to root my Shield 2017 16GB, but i seem to be doing something wrong. My bootloader is unlocked.

After i have uploaded the twrp (is it official or unofficial from this thread) to my shield and i'm rebooting into recovery:

- If nothing is connected to the shield or connected is the game pad it will start, but i have zero control. And the mouse if i connect it later after being in recovery is not being powered on as i see it.

- If the mouse or keyboard is connected during boot it will hold on the nvidia logo while going to recovery. I did wait several hours but i did not load recovery.

I did some reading but found no posts with similar problem. Can someone help me out?

I want to root because the shield is not having wifi, as the mac address is set to 02:00:00:00:00:00 and a back flash to earlier version of the original system did not help.

[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] airplanegeek:
I'm a Tmobile customer who recently upgraded from Galaxy S5 to Mate 9. My new Mate 9 struggles to get a cell signal in my house, which prohibits sending/receiving texts and making/receiving calls. It mostly says Emergency Calls Only or No Service at the top of the screen. I did not have these issues with my mid-2014 device, so I'm surprised and disappointed to have them today. Could be a deal breaker in keeping the device.

Are there any settings or changes I can make within the device to improve signal strength?
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] dscline:
That is surprising, as I've had much better reception compared to my Note 3. No settings changed, just popped in the SIM (after cutting it down to fit). But I should add that my Note 3 was an AT&T version, which did not support t-mobile's Band 12, so it's POSSIBLE that extra band has contributed to my better reception.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] aknotts415:
No wifi calling on T-Mobile doesnt help either.

---------- Post added at 03:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:11 PM ----------

I kinda wonder if this phone actually gets band 12. There seems to be no way to see what band ur phones using and i get better reception by a lot at work and my apartment with my pixel xl than my mate 9. How can it be certified on band 12 with tmobile and not have wifi calling on tmobile?
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] dscline:
I don't see why the two would be related. My understanding is WiFi calling is a somewhat proprietary function: WiFi calling on T-mobile is different than WiFi calling on AT&T, etc., so the software to use it is specific to the carrier. Band 12 is just another band. If the phone supports it (and it's supposed to), then it should work.

I live in a somewhat poor t-mobile spot: I typically only got 1 or 2 two at home, and 1 bar, to sometimes no service in the Kroger a block away from me. With the Mate 9, I'm getting 3-4 bars in both places.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] aknotts415:
But with band 12 doesnt you're phone have to be certified by T-Mobile to really work on band 12? I thot it did which in turn made me thing, why would it be band 12 certifed and not have T-Mobiles wifi calling certified?:confused:
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] dscline:
I'm not aware of anything "special" about band 12 vs. any other band.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] nighthawk626:
Yeah the exact opposite over here. Really strong signals indoor not to mention where my Nexus 6p and note 4 signals would be dead zero, I'm still able to get LTE. And yeah it does have band 12
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] duraaraa:
I've tried my phone in Japan on Docomo and AU networks, and in the US on T-Mobile, and I haven't had trouble with reception at all. But obviously, this is totally subjective and is based on your location relative towers.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Governa:
Total opposite for me, slightly better reception that with my previous phones.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] airplanegeek:
Appreciate the feedback. I'll need to expedite a decision to either return it or hope for a resolution at some future point. Thanks!
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] RMXO:
yeap, band 12 (indoor) band sucks on my CHN 6/128 turned EU. I had a US Mate 9 and indoor reception sucked as well. My old LG V20 and Note 7 had better indoor signal.

When and where did i ever say that? :confused:

Your getting an error 7 right? that means you have the wrong trwp version. Here's the right twrp version if you want to install custom roms: twrp-3.0.2

we had a working build a few weeks ago, but it had a major camera issue, it would physically damage your camera and flashing back to stock roms wouldn't fix it. I have fixed the camera issue and updated my sources since then but i can't get a boot now.

The biggest thing that changed is that I reverted my phone back to official stock ZUI 2.3 in order to get the latest ZUI 2.5 OTA. So i'm trying to figure out what changed and what needs to be fixed.

It would be nice if I could get some help, it seems like i'm the only one working on this now.
