Still doesn't hold larger than 4GB files. And from an end user perspective, most anything above 32GB is going to be reformatted as exFAT by default when wanting it to be compatible between Windows and OSX, least as far as a thumbdrive or external HDD goes. Since they're multi platform devices typically not typically going to back up everything, reformat as fat32 and then put stuff back on them or dedicate to one device (what you say makes a lot of sense of course when considering a microSD to be paired with the device in the long term).

To reiterate, I'm not saying a rom *should* have exFat capabilities, just for me personally it's one of the things that keeps me from moving to a rom on a longer term basis if it doesn't support it. If it does , that's a nice bonus for me especially if it's an unofficial rom, or of an android version that hasn't been made available in stock yet. So while it could do without (especially in early work in progress until all the basics and essentials are smoothed out), it'd be nice to have as an end user that gets to enjoy that functionality on stock devices.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Hack_AR:
True. But it also more vulnerable to errors. I remember clearly, that after almost every Win98 crash the scandisk found errors. There are a lot of shortcomings to FAT32 compared to any "new" FS.

Oh, and storing files with 4+ GB size is a requirement :)
[Shield Tablet Android Development] ST Dog:
I've never needed a 4GB file on an Android device, phone or tablet.

Maybe if shooting long videos. Not something I'd do with a phone but would expect it to use multiple files like my camcorder does.

BTW that camcorder won't read exFAT.

Corruption is an issue, but not severe. Those Windows errors are for the OS disk with lots of open files. Not as Big of problem for non OS storage/data drives fixed or removable.

So back to my point, exFAT is not more compatible than FAT32.

There are other solutions for large files if needed.

So lack of exFAT isn't really a showstopper.

Personally I'd rather have F2FS or JFFS2 on a flash cards/sticks. But good luck geting Windows support.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] tende96:
Thank you, i'm using this rom for 4 days and is very smooth and fast. There are three main problems that maybe are fixable.

-Wifi 5ghz above channel 52 doesnt show up the wifi.

-Some full hd videos on yt will lag, but others will work smooth... (720 is always working).

-Live display isn't working

I have some questions:

There will be some pie roms?

And some new modded kernel for oreo?

And last question: is anyone interested to make one Telegram group for the nvidia shield tablet? We can help each other to solve problems or beta testing or anyting else..
[Shield Tablet Android Development] GtrCraft:
Here is a new lineage build with exfat supported kernel:

[Shield Tablet Android Development] GtrCraft:
Pie roms are up to Steel to release. I didn't even want to release these builds at first because its all his work.

Ask the BitO kernel dev for an updated kernel.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] tende96:
Oh ok, i understand. I will ask him that, will see! :) Anyway, thanks a lot! :)
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Hack_AR:
Couldn't do much testing, but this looks fine! Thanks!

So, my main problem is 5 GHz channels issue now :)
[Shield Tablet Android Development] alcopsy:
Change your frenquency channel in your box, if auto try 36/44 or 48hz...
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Hack_AR:
I spoke too soon. Device does recognize the system and displays used/free space, but the file explorer wont display content.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Digital DJ:
Hey guys, I just flashed Lineage lastest build and am wondering what version of Gapps I need. Since this is Android 7.1.2 I tried both Gapps for 7.0 & 7.1. Neither is installing, I keep getting the wrong version error. I haven't flashed GAPPS in awhile so I'm a bit rusty on this.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] multiwirth:
Have you chosen the correct architecture?

This device is arm (not arm64, not x86 and not x86_64)
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Digital DJ:
Ummm, lol ok I DL'd the right one. Giving it a shot now.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] 4Strings:
Thinking of slapping this ROM on my Shield Tablet. Does Netflix work properly? It's the main thing I use it for (well, that and as an alarm clock).
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Snah001:
Works -A- OK
[Shield Tablet Android Development] 4Strings:
So... For some reason I can't get the tablet to boot into fastboot. BL is already unlocked (had to do it ages ago when Nvidia released a bad update that killed WiFi), but whenever I boot into the bootloader and select fastboot, it just reboots into the BL...

Any ideas?

---------- Post added at 12:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:37 PM ----------

I've tried

adb reboot fastboot

, but it just reboots the entire tablet...

---------- Post added at 12:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:40 PM ----------

Never mind. had to reinstall NV drivers. All good now.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] kbeezie:
You're already in fastboot when you're on that screen.

Do not press any keys after pressing down to highlight fast boot, and with that line highlighted, then type into the command line fastboot devices to see it show up, can do the remainder of your fastboot commands from there.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] 4Strings:
Installation finished (once I installed the Nvidia USB drivers). But Nexflix doesn't seem to like to ROM... Keeps giving me error 15001... Any suggestions?

BTW, I'm running the unofficial LOS 15.1 from a few posts back.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] 4Strings:
I wiped and reflashed to the official 14.1 nightly and Netflix works, so I guess it's an issue with the Oreo ROM?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] GtrCraft:
You need the liboem encrypt disabler magisk module
[Shield Tablet Android Development] 4Strings:
I completely forgot to install magisk! What version do I need for the shield?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] GtrCraft:
Latest will work just fine

According to wiki:

And in the news as well:

I thought 14.1 is just reduced to monthly updates?

Any plans to make 15.1 official/stable in the near future?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Digital DJ:
I'm having a very hard time flashing this to my Shield tablet. I'm on Android 7.0, BL is unlocked, I'm definitely rooted. I did use Magisk Modules to add a kali Netuhunter overlay, but I've been unable to flash to Lineage before that. I wonder if I'm missing a step in the flashing process.

1. I download the build and GAPPS to my ext SD

2. Reboot into Twrp

3. Flash build, but it never takes.

I already have Lineage on another identical tablet and I had no issues getting it on (except I could never get the battery to read more than 88% charge which didn't happen before Lineage) so I thought I would try it on my second Nvidia Shield K1.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Maltonator:
So you can't flash the rom? Or gapps?

Here is a description of how to install it.

Did you format data before flashing the zip file?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Digital DJ:
correct, I could not flash the ROM or GApps, but I did get it fixed. Since I have two of these devices and successfully flashed Lineage on the other one, I made a backup and put it on the Tablet I couldn't flash to and restored that backup. Worked like a charm and all is well now.

Now 14.1 is deprecated will we still receive security updates with 14.1 build?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] M4rkusX:
No official security patches or builds for 14.1 and older. (Only community backported security patches and unofficial builds...) See also my comment a few posts before.

I dont know if/when an offical 15.1 will be released for the shield, only Steel01 can tell...
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Disrupthor:

[Shield Tablet Android Development] Steel01:
I'm planning to work on getting 15.1 officials rolling this week, hopefully have it out this weekend or sometime next week. Last I checked, the only blocker was gps. I just haven't taken the time to fix the gps shim and click the buttons. The red tape that was previously preventing me from shipping without hardware video acceleration has been fixed, so that's no longer an issue.

I've also got the tablet booting 16.0 with most features working. However, there is a pretty bad show stopper bug in the graphics stack that causes the system to lock up and soft reboot after a while. I dunno if I'll ever get that sorted, but it's a battle for a later day. I'm putting more time into foster and quill recently. Once I get them in a place I'm comfortable with, I'll do more work on the older platforms.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] 4Strings:
I've got GtrCraft's unofficial LOS15.1 (February security patch) running just fine. :)
[Shield Tablet Android Development] HaRdC0r3:
So the hardware acceleration has been fixed or is it the software workaround that is being implemented in LOS15?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] multiwirth:
Wow great news.

So do this also mean that hardware video acceleration is working or is it still software rendered?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Steel01:
I already answered the question in the last two posts in my last post...

Hardware video acceleration is pretty much toast on anything older than t210 (shield android tv) unless someone reimplements the entire nvmm stack. It'll work on N, but not O or newer.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] GtrCraft:
That means I will stop sharing my builds, thanks
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Drigga:
Tks for information
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Steel01:
Alright, test build next. This *should* be the final text build before I merge everything and start rolling official weeklies again. GPS work again. This update is in tandem with some shield android tv updates, though, and I'm still finishing testing / fixing some things on that side. *Hopefully* I can finish that up today, but part of it is being cantankerous, so... *shrugs*

lineage-15.1-20190404-UNOFFICIAL-shieldtablet.zip

Note: this is signed with test keys, unlike my previous builds (different work area for staging to officials versus my normal development, blah blah), so this will require a wipe and clean flash.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Drigga:
Is there a way to pair the 2017 controller on Lineage 14.1?

The Controller App is missing when I flash the rom.

[Shield Tablet Android Development] john_matrix:
Thanks Steel!

Youtube videos 1080p@60fps are working with this build?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] animeware:
Thanks for hard effort and work bro. Keep it up bro.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] hectoralexgarcia:
Updated to 15 today - Prime Video, Hulu, Youtube, and Showtime all work at 1080p. Netflix plays but stutters and breakups every 3-5 seconds at any quality level. Netflix playback improves changing display settings - none overcome the stopping and stuttering of video playback.

A solid build - but I haven't tested bluetooth, and LTE is still messed up.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Steel01:
Videos at 1080 will be hit and miss since it's all being software decoded. The cortex a-15 isn't a pushover when it comes to that, but it still has its limits. Say in Kodi, the majority of videos work fine, but some really high motion scenes will still bring it to its knees. One test case I use is a high quality bluray rip of episode 14 of Sword Art Online. The fight scene in the middle really starts to lag and desync.

Netflix works period? I'm actually surprised to hear that. Since I disabled hardware decoding, I figured that'd be gone for good. Or at least the higher resolutions in it. I'm gonna have to try that for grins now.

Oh, one other thing it'd be good for someone to check. Does the cell modem work? My lte models are in pretty sad shape and I haven't tried to coax one into booting recently. I expect it works, just want to hear a confirmation.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] hectoralexgarcia:
Yes, Netflix worked... some settings will have the video loading forever - others will make it work at varying degrees.

The last time I got the lte to work, was when I went to stock and then back to Lineage. LTE continued to work for several LOS14 updates until one of those updates broke it. Clean installs of Lineage 14 will not re-enable - I have just been too lazy to try again (back to stock). I will try stock and back to LOS15 again maybe on sunday night or monday - I'm busy with my masters coursework.

The issue with the modem is that is shows it as enabled but it does not recognize the sim card being inserted.

Thanks for your hard work [MENTION=1416222]Steel01[/MENTION] and for giving this tablet some prolonged new life.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Steel01:
Hmm. Okay, so yeah, I don't think I'm gonna be able to make netflix any better than that without hardware acceleration. So that's going to be a trade off. Oreo+? No hardware acceleration with unusable netflix. For me personally, I don't use my tablet for much media anymore, if I do, it's with Kodi, which works somewhat better. But since official Lineage no longer supports 14.1, I can't provide builds to those that want to keep full media functionality. I'm not setting my own build infra for that. If there's enough interest, maybe one of the unofficial packagers around here will. The device trees should still work fine. And if any problems crop up, I'll accept patches upstream as long as they look sane.

I dug out my tablet that still has a working modem (but touch is dead, so... still a pain) and on first boot, I got signal. But the card is now unprovisioned, so it doesn't actually get a data connection. So... dunno what's up with the reports of non-working. Maybe it's like my 3rd lte tablet where the modem outright went kaput. I do know these icera modems are... special snowflakes. The littlest thing goes wrong and they go awol, even on stock. Though, there is 'magic' in stock that I don't replicate. Like if the sim disappears, stock with restart the entire modem stack down to the firmware. Dunno how much that really helps, though.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Drigga:
Has the 14.1 build been removed from website?

I can‘t download it anymore.

Regards.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Ikarbb:
I just want to say..... THANK YOU!!!!

In previous lineage 15.0 builds, I only tested a game called Summoners War. Been playing it for years and love the Shield for long grinding, and then other times I use it for reading. The hardware acceleration greatly affected how the game runs and it would stutter hard every few seconds very often/consistently. With the latest update, the game no longer stutters at all. It is amazing.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] hectoralexgarcia:
I just installed stock image, twrp, and nomoreota. I went through the setup process, inserted the sim card and BAM! LTE connected right away. Something in Lineage is breaking the modem, and that is my only gripe about 14 or 15 Lineage. I can deal with Netflix messing up since I can just chromecast it to the tv or find the show on the streaming sites. I'll try 15 tomorrow and see if the LTE problem goes away.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Drigga:

Thanks for your effort and the build because the amount of people who are still using their Shield Tablet is diminishing while writing this.

Hope you still can find the time and effort to continue.

LOS 15.1: Thank you

Hello Steel01,

Thank you for your continuing support for our Shield tablet. The efforts to bring 15.1 to our tablet (which is still running fine) are very much appreciated!

Downloaded it over the weekend and for me it is running very well. Battery life for me (reading newspaper apps) seems to be somewhat better as 14.1. May be apps running in background are with Oreo more constrained in their behavior?

Again, thanks!
[Shield Tablet Android Development] UrbanKid:
Appreciate your dedication and work on the lineage os. Thanks for the awesome work you have done for everyone.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Steel01:
Just about everything is in place for official 15.1 builds to roll out. There's one pending change that may or may not make it in. It would affect the console mode app being able to trigger the reload to switch between resolutions and turn the built in display on and off. If it doesn't, one would have to manually restart the device after switching modes to get it to apply. I do not consider this a blocker bug since there's a simple enough workaround, so I'm pushing to get builds going asap.

On a related note: I still haven't got the touch rotation patch working right, so touch will still be portrait in console mode for the time being. That's another work in progress.

I need some help I clean flashed the newest lineage-15.1-20190404-UNOFFICIAL-shieldtablet.zip and well the tablet seems to be charging very slow (around 20% in 2 hours) is this normal for this rom?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Steel01:
Mine charges normally. Couple things that comes to mind. A) is this an original or the newer wifi only model? One of my originals had the charger mostly die. It charges at the rate of about 2% a day. B) Have you flashed any custom dtb? I know there were 'fast charging' solutions around. But if the dtb is out of sync, lots of things can go wrong including worse charging issues.

And yay, the builds start tomorrow. All the required bits are in. So, barring any catastrophic issues, the first official build will be up within 24 hours. And will release weekly from there.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] szempek555:
Yes this is the original shield tablet wifi model, but it was charging normal with the original rom. And no I dont think I flashed any custom dtb-s, where may I find that for download?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Steel01:
If you haven't flashed any custom one, that's good. I was trying to say the custom ones can cause issues. Hmmm... Yeah, I don't know. Most people (and myself) are seeing good battery life, standby times, and reasonable charge times. It's hard for me to guess what the issue might be. If you plug it in then power off, does it charge as you'd expect?

Edit:

So, I misinterpreted how our build system balances weekly builds. Shieldtablet will actually run on Mondays. Sorry for the misinformation.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Gitah.:

Thanks for all your hard work , will H/w acceleration be fixed/ improved in the new builds?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Steel01:
? What exactly are you trying to do? Model is detected automatically in a custom init extension.

To answer a couple other questions. 16.0 boots, but due to a memory leak in the graphics stack, completely crashes after a while of usage. Different things are being looked at, but it's not the highest priority right now. As for hardware video acceleration, this has been answered several times of the last few pages. No, not unless someone rewrites the nvmm stack. This same issue affects the Nexus 9 and other older tegra devices.
