[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ptr727:
Hi, hoping for some advice, I have three shield 2017's, updated 2 of 3 to 8.0.1 without issue, last one went into bootloop after the update.

The problematic one had the update pending for a long time, just never rebooted to install it, until now.

I followed the nvidia KB, and tried the the fast boot menu, recovery kernel, factory reset, still bootloop.

I contacted support over chat, they had me boot without HDMI, press A, reconnect HDMI, no difference, shield keeps rebooting even without HDMI.

Support then had me change power plugs, since I have three shields, I tested using another working shield PSU, same problem.

Support then had me boot, wait 2 mins, press home and left on dpad, wait for blue flashing, no difference, as shield keeps rebooting, waiting for anything is really pointless.

Out of frustration, and not knowing what I'm doing, I did a factory reset directly from fastboot menu, now I get a can't verify firmware, lock firmware, press A message, and then it just sits at the nvidia menu, not good.

(Btw, it took many tries to get the fastboot menu to launch, first time was lucky, but it continued rebooting before I had a chance to move the menu, then it seemed impossible to get again.

Is there a reliable way to get the fastboot menu up using the controller A+B or other method?

Given the state of the shield, can I recover the device, any advice on how, please?
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zecabra:
if you are able to access fastboot menu everything is possible if it's not a hardware problem, grab one of the recovery images for your device and use one of the many tutorials available to recovery your device
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ptr727:
Ok, that's good news then, I'll order and A-A cable and try one of the tutorials (I was pointed to one on reddit).

Any advice on how to reliably launch the fastboot menu using the controller, I do the A+B button, power on, and it only occasionally works?

im using duttys wm6.1 offical realease. it has been working great for a few months and allk of a sudden today it started turning itself on and old but it never loads past the att home screen. UNLESS if i hold the two soft keys it will load all the way to the today screen, stay there for about 1 minute and then reset it self again, it keeps resetting faster and faster after each time. ive tried numerous hard and soft resets. i dont know what to do. please help!

is my soft reset button stuck or something?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] sd73ta:
put it in boatloader by holding down the camera button and reseting and flash a new rom
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] RizwanKhan:
that is a possibility .. if reflashing deosn't help (that is if u can as if soft reset key stuck it won't stay in bootloader) than take it in for service.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Sublime5991:
the soft reset key has to be stuck because it wont stay in boot laoder and as soon as i put the battery in the phone it starts resseting again, and if i try and do a hard reset the i only have to press the 2 soft keys not even the soft reset button. will they service it even if the rom has been changed?

Hi,

I root my Redmi Note 7 and I found some games can't run with root. Is there any app or any methods to turn off/on very easy(e.g. one button switch)? Thanks for your help.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] smokeyrider:
How did you root your phone, if you used Magisk you can hide root for individual apps from within Magisk manager. There is a setting calked Magisk hide, select the apps from within there.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] dennistw124:
Thanks for your reply about Magisk manager

>I am sorry. I forget. I just follow a document from XiaoMi website and I think I have installed Magisk and I also enable Magisk hide, too. But the game still auto close when I launch. I confirm this with other players and they say "yes, the new game(DQMSL: Dragon Quest Monster Super Light Japanese Version) update will detect a root device". Maybe I do not install Magisk correctly. Anyway, Thank you very much for your reply.
[MX Player] londere:
Hello, I use an Nvidia Shield TV, the most of the usage is for IPTV transmission, I want to know if there will be codec support for this device, I tried tegra3 codec but it says, using ARM 7 Neon Codec.

In advance greetings.
[MX Player] MXPlayer:
Hey Londere,

Tegra3 chipset basically is based on ARM-v7a architecture and fully supports Neon instructions. Previously, MX had an additional codec pack due to a firmware bug on the devices with Tegra3 chips. However, it no longer requires an additional patch to work. So, there is no need to install any additional codec packs from Google Play until or unless the app asks you to install.

Hope this information helps.
[MX Player] nakulp:
To the OP, you don't need extra codec pack for this chip.

To the MX Player guy - this is the Tegra X1 chipset present in Nvidia Shield TV & not the Tegra 3 from 2012!

Atleast read the posts properly! :rolleyes: :eek:
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] rollerdyke44:
Hi

SO i was about to pull the trigger on the tencent version but then i stumbled on something interesting. I read that the indian version (8/12) does NOT have tencent games written on the back. So basically it is exactly the same as the global variant other than the lower spec.

Can anyone confirm that? I havent found much information on the india model. Also will it be using the WW ROM??

I mean if I have to pay the same price, I'd rather get it with republic of gamers written on it instead of tencent games

Last thing. I read that the global is all glass back where as tencent is "glass + metal". Where exactly is the metal? I looked at a couple of videos on youtube and tbh it look the same.

(P.s yes I am aware it will be a grey import either way cuz I am based in UK so dont really care about that. Also, I wont be putting this beauty in a case so thats why i prefer it saying republic of gamers)

Thank you!! :D
[ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers] vimalcv:
There are only 2 model, global and tencent

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Deleted member 9779361:
I've seen several threads talking about how prone the Note 9's AMOLED screen is to burn-in. I wish to use the default light theme for once as it complements my phone's new background and style. Since the day I updated to Android 9 I have used the dark theme and have some concerns about burn-in, especially in the navbar area. Has anybody here who has used light theme regularly noticed any form of burn-in?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] iceepyon:
Burn-in only happens if you have a bright picture displayed on your device's display constantly for a prolong period of time. However if you use a dark theme, it will preserve your battery.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] misternagoya:
Hi Folks I hope you can help me with a problem I'm having.

Five days ago I took my mate 20x (international version) off its charger(original) and noticed that it had turned off while charging. I tried to turn on the phone but nothing....

I charged it once again with another cable, another plug and repeated this 5 times with different cables and adapters. Then I held "power" and volume "down" to reset it, but that didn't work either.

Next up I connected it to two computers but no signs of life, I left it connected to my computer (win 10) for two days and later noticed sound that it connected to my computer. It evens softly vibrates when I turn it on and off. The screen however stays black and even though hisuite reacts, it says "not connected" .

Now and then the huawei logo appears but it's stuck on it, no configuration of button pushing wakes it out of it, except the power button which kills it again.

I bought my device in the UK, so Huawei Japan won't service it, or even look at it.

Do you think this problem can be solved by replacing the battery, or the symptoms a case of something worse?

Hisuite enters recovery mode but when I click recover it says "your device is not supported for recovery.

I am out of my wits....:crying:

Thanks in advance,

Serge

Huawei UK has two year warranty, it might be a defective mother board .

Which supplier did you purchase it from in the UK?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] misternagoya:
Thanks for the quick response, I bought the phone on ebay, it was used. It was fine for 5 months so I don't think the seller sold it to me in bad faith. I don't know however where he bought it, and Huawei UK doesn't have the mate 20x in their line up.....
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] anasmhds:
Try to go to recovery mode if possible and factory reset the phone..

https://www.hardreset.info/devices/huawei/huawei-mate-20-x/recovery-mode/
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] misternagoya:
Thanks tried that...nothing.

I guess it's really bad luck and I'm probably out of 600 euros... I haven't read of other people with this problem so I guess I just got a lemon and order a new one somewhere. I really like this device.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Maczimus:
If its warranty left just contact huawei and send it to them for service.

What HUAWEI will do in the event of a Warranty claim

4. During the Warranty Period, HUAWEI or an authorised service center, the list of authorised service centers is available at the following address: www.consumer.huawei.com (“Authorised Service Center”) will repair or replace, at HUAWEI's option, the Product or any relevant parts thereof in the event of any defect in the materials and workmanship.

---------- Post added at 15:28 ---------- Previous post was at 15:27 ----------

HUAWEI provides the warranty set out in this document, in respect of this HUAWEI branded product and/or accessory (“Product(s)”) purchased in a member state of the European Union, Iceland, Norway or Switzerland, to the consumer (the “Warranty”). If the Product is purchased in any of the countries referenced above, this Warranty is valid and enforceable in all of them, although, if the Warranty service is provided in a different country to the country of purchase, the service may be delayed.

---------- Post added at 15:44 ---------- Previous post was at 15:28 ----------

Chatted with huawei, here you go:

I see. Indeed, the warranty will be regions specific in most of the cases so that might represent an issue in regards to fixing it there, but something should still be sorted out with the service center. The warranty will apply, no matter where the customer is living, but it's more a matter of sending the device to the service.

Yes, indeed. He needs to contact the service center either here: 0123 361 9320 or here https://sbeglobalservice.com/contact/
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] misternagoya:
Thank you so much for going through all the trouble, now I have to figure out if there's still some warranty left. If there's not then this is going to be a costly thing...

could you please update your post with

wich programs is what and how to install

some programs are a bit strange and have no cab or something
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] JstarLuvsTina:
OK to answer the questions accordingly

Kareem9nba - Glad you pointed it out.. USE THESE INSTEAD OF THE ONES IN THE S2U2 FILE

-----> HTC tsk. files:

2 THINGS

1. BEFORE U DO ANY OF THIS CONNECT UR PHONE VIA ACTIVE SYNC

2. I WILL NOT SAY UNZIP OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.. THATS JUST COMMON SENSE

Aaron78

all the files come with a "read-me", its fairly simple, but ill break it down :

1. Install SPB MS2.1

2. via active sync go program files > SPB Mobile Shell and replace all EXACT files with the files located in the "HTC Diamond MS2.1" ( the folder titled "file" which was extracted from that zip, and replace the font files as well.

3. Soft Reset..after you soft reset your today screen should look like the pics ive posted.

4. Reconnect via active sync

5. Install S2U2 .. its a .cab file so its a quick drag and drop

6. In the "Diamond Theme For S2U2" read the "read me" file.. its that simple. BUT instead of using the 2 wallpapers in there.. use the 2 ive attached above.

7. Soft Reset..after you soft reset your initial screen should look like the pics ive posted.

8. Reconnect via active sync

9. Install Diamond Dialer. its a .cab file so its a quick drag and drop

10. Soft Reset

11. Reconnect via active sync

12. Try to make a phone call, your dialer should look pretty dope..lol

13. Install SPB Weather

14. Take the files from the Media Player folder ive given you and go ( via active Sync ) Program Files > Windows Media Player > and drop the folder in there

15. Use open up ur media player, and go menu > options > skin and choose the one titled portrait, then the onle titled landscape, you should be good to go from that point

16. Install SPB Watcher. its a .cab file so once again, its a simple drag and drop via active sync

17. Soft Reset, by this point your phone should look exactly like what the pics above show.. if not.. re-read my instructions.

On To The Bonus Apps

18. Install Personalizer. Again, its a .cab file so u can drag and drop via active sync.

19. Install Thumb Calender.. follow the link posted above its already been posted.

20. Firefox is optional. I like it the best, so thats what i use.

And thats all folks.. any questions.. as i mentioned if its not listed just ask.. ill see what i can do for u!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] JstarLuvsTina:
Operator Personalizer changes the name of ur Service Provider on ur ppc

ex: i have At&t but with the personalizer ive changed it too "The Evil Genius!"

so now its reads as if my service provider is The Evil Genius.. its a pretty cool app.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] JstarLuvsTina:
it works good for me and a few others who have thanked me

but if u can find me another place..id gladly upload it there
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kareeem:
Great, well i just tried to put it as my today screen, but when i set it, it's WAY lighter than the original. You can barely see the HTC in green. Can you just upload the .tsk as an attatchment? That'd be great--thanks.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] johnpwu:
First off, I just want to say that this theme looks great. However, I'm having a little bit of trouble getting it to work, and I'm not sure why. I suspect it has to do with my ROM, which is DCS WM6.1 V1.7.

I've installed and used themes before (though never on this ROM), without any problems, but here's what I'm running into:

I install SPB, copy over the Diamond files, soft reset (thanks for those clear directions by the way) and... nothing happens at all. My home screen looks just like normal.

Under Today --> Themes, I only have DCS, DCSv2 and Windows Default listed.

Any help anyone could offer would be immensely appreciated. Thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] JstarLuvsTina:
to be honest over on other sites ive heard that some ROMS dont really agree with SPB MS2. and in a situation like this i really wouldnt know what to do.. im sorry i cant help u here.. but ill do some searching myself to see what i can come across
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] johnpwu:
Thanks man, I really appreciate it a lot. I too will do some looking around, but in the meantime, may I ask what ROM you're running?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] JstarLuvsTina:
not a problem..if i find anything ill give u a shout!

but uh...im using my stock rom and stock radio..whatever tweaks ive done have been strickly on the exterior end.. i havent really messed with the "guts", so to speak of my device. i mean minor tweaks using kaiser tweak.. but nothing too extreme
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] johnpwu:
All right, I have to say, this is perhaps the oddest thing I've seen on this phone, but... I did about three more soft resets out of frustration, and all of a sudden, I was looking at a diamond theme!

Thanks for the help, and this thing is beautiful
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] JstarLuvsTina:
lol.. sometimes i guess it just needs to be kicked into place.. but thats awesome tho that u got it to work!

so lemme ask u.. have u installed everything .. or just the theme thus far?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dayton1:
I know this a noob question, but how do you actually: Install SPB MS2.1.

I have tried from the tilt and activesync. I am sure it is from activesync, but not too sure. May I please have a suggestion? Thanks.

**EDIT**

I guess I installed correctly. I even tried P1Taters cab, but after numberous soft resets..nothing. Maybe it will not work on the DeathV4 rom?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] JstarLuvsTina:
try going to :

menu > settings > today > items

and see what u have checked off.. if u installed everything as i instructed the only thing checked off should be SPB Watcher. mess with that a bit, see what happends.
