[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] Hitti2:
upscaling gets disabled because bootloader is unlocked. thats what i seen on nvidia 8.2.3 os with bootloader unlocked at upscaling section, i had to lock the bootloader and reset user data.

id like to have another shield tv pro 2019, have it to experiment and main one.

im thinking about trying this https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/mdarcy/install for twrp to stick.

jenneh's guide has nothing about twrp being over writtin. and i recall smartphones n twrp, u need to shutdown and boot back into twrp for it to overwrite stock recovery.

i tried booting recovery kernel after shutting down and using A and B, but it just reloads the bootloader fastboot section.

edit:

bootloader locked, see photo. 8.2.3
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] Hitti2:
I did demo test on avatar 1080p, it upscales it most definitely, wow.

4k hdr doesn't get upscaled says nothing to upscale. ofc. unless 8k streaming device.

makes me wonder if nvidia has more in the works since 2019 for a new device even better n more powerful.

I asked in LOS thread if ai scaling can bypass the unlock bootloader and work.

I tried to search the thread, I got one of those "Call Neo" messages. Please, no "RTFT." (I suppose it might be "STFT.")

What on earth is an Nvidia Controller? Obviously, that's not the RC.

Is this Android version specific or agnostic?

@Walter Bishop I appreciate you sharing this. I had heard some chatter about this too on a podcast i listen to and have saved somewhere. I appreciate any and all breadcrumbz.

I was able to pull all the shield's partitions from a fully installed system and have begun mapping it out, i started with 9.0 to help with building a rom and backing up proprietary apks. I will release these somewhere later and pick up my research with the uboot later.

I'm currently really invested in my modding windows isos thread, finishing mapping out the windows system (may take a couple weeks)but when done i will be back to share some things for the shield
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] ajolly:
Without AI upscaling there seems little reason to use a shield over other devices. The s922x devices are cheaper and faster.

@ajolly Thank You for sharing this magisk module. I saw it when ya said it, just didn't have time to test.

So I tested it yesterday, and I think it worked?

That is on the dev rooted 9.0 firmware from here (8.2.3 didn't work for me, at least with zygisk it got stuck):

https://xdaforums.com/t/all-2019-nv...rmware-ever-mirrored-and-flash-ready.4495713/

It no longer says the bootloader is unlocked and yt videos are looking super good. I just don't use my shield for anything other than learning, so idk for sure if it is.

Can someone please test this and verify?

I put the instructions up on reddit so we can get some more eyes on it and maybe find out sooner
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] Electrified Bill:
Greetings. I successfully followed the instructions and rooted my shield. The "Shield Storage Access" which has "Transfer files over network" is missing and thus I cannot hook up to my Synology NAS. What can I do?
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] jenneh:
this may be due to the safetynet module which is kinda silly I will see what can be done after work Thank You for testing, I'll let you know what I find later. The safetynet even disables some adb settings.
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] jenneh:
@Electrified Bill Can you turn the module off and reboot and see if it corrects the issue? that way i know if it is safetynet or the rooted firmware?
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] Electrified Bill:
I don't have safety net module installed, only Magisk. Should I?
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] jenneh:
In magisk I mean, if you hit that puzzle piece and turn off safetynet in it it
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] Electrified Bill:
Yes that's what I did. There are no modules installed.
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] jenneh:
Oh okay thank you so that's a problem with the root firmware I'll look into it later today
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] jenneh:
@Electrified Bill again I really thank you for taking the time, I am trying to recreate your problem on the rooted firmware, I do not have such a fancy and neat looking device so I am doing my best to just try to mock setup a network transfer. I am not sure if this is where you were trying from, but I was able to access the network transfer settings from going into Settings on the shield> Device Preferences> Storage & reset > Transfer files over network and the shield allowed me to setup a network, I just don't have anything to test with.

If that worked for you, you could then install the magisk module to test the AI Upscaling fix, the instructions for installing the module are here:

https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidiashield/comments/z4fuo3

And again if it works maybe I can learn how to make the network storage a shortcut on the home screen for the rom?
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] Electrified Bill:
I can't get that far.
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] jenneh:
This is perplexing. I will research it now, the only thing I have done on top of just installing magisk and the 9.0.0 firmware, is I enabled developer options in settings. Not sure if that would help? But I will look around now
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] jenneh:
@Electrified Bill Oh and I have

network debugging turned on
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] jenneh:
This is some sort of known issue ? https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforc...34/shield-experience-upgrade-90-hotfix-image/ which they hotfixed like 5 days before releasing the 9.0.0 firmware on Gameworks it seems, so I am going to try to upgrade the rooted version up to 9.1 from the in the shield to see if it keeps read write access and whatnot and maybe that would work better? Cause they are slacking on releasing 9.1 on gameworks.

edit my shield is still on 9.0 but it looks different than last night and the upgrade option is gone. Going to reflash mine to see if I can trigger it again and if so if it will actually install 9.1 on root

erased all partitions, and reinstalled 9.0, was unable to recreate the problem, for me the network transfer option is there?

The 9.1 upgrade isn't so now I am going to reinstall magisk and the safetynet module to see if that is what triggered the upgrade for the rooted image for me before --edit did not work

Do I use that in place of lineage-OS.zip? Do I start over from the beginning of your video?
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] jenneh:
Okay wow I should have asked more questions. Sorry I didnt realize you came from that setup. Yes you would use that instead. You would simply run erase all partitions after placing the shield back into the bootloader menu then shield root. but if you are satisfied with lineage you can just leave it and I can wait on someone else cause lineage is a lot of work to install.
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] Electrified Bill:
Ok I'll use yours. But now I have a different problem. It won't go into the bootloader menu.
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] jenneh:
You can send through adb

adb reboot bootloader

But now that I think about it you gave me an idea I will download a low quality video and test it myself and see if that works I appreciate your time

Whelp it would help if I actually understood what AI Upscaling is and does. https://www.talkandroid.com/guides/android-tv-guides/nvidia-shield-tv-ai-upscaling/ explains it well

"It’s also important to keep in mind that this only works on 1080p and 720p content at 30FPS, so you won’t be able to use it on a lot of YouTube videos or things that are already in 4K"

I'm kinda throwing my hands up here cause I really am having a hard time understanding how to test this. So if anyone who understands the AI upscaling has time to let us know at some point,, it would be appreciated. I am going back to researching of pulling the preinstalled rooted images and flashing them back https://xdaforums.com/t/learning-ab...the-staging-blob.4516537/page-3#post-87784093

Forgive me if I'm posting in the wrong place but I'm running of resources. I have a Nvidia shield TV I have rooted installed twrp and am running a bear bones Liniage Os (the only compatible I could find). The OS is alive and well but I have Two problems;

A- The only pre-installed app is the Nvidia games app. No play store, browser or file explorer. I'm running Linux and have ADB / fastboot installed but when I try to push an APK through TWRP it's still not installing... Any advice on how to install the play store or a browser would save my life!

B- The pre-installed Nvidia games needs an update but when I click to update it goes to a screen asking me to accept the terms and conditions however the moment the screen comes up it goes back to my home screen with the same notification saying an update is needed. When I click it the dialog box disappears only displaying my home screen. Thanks in advance!

Hi everybody,

hope this board is the correct one for this question (otherwise please move it to the appropriate board).

Since it seems that I have to buy a new/another mobile while mine is getting unreliably in different areas including crashes and custom ROMs are working but draining battery too fast and also cannot compensate the HW-related issues I am currently looking for a new/another mobile.

Due to the fact that I do not want to buy a new one latest every second year since at least Android versions increased so fast that necessary apps do no longer support older versions I'd like to check mobiles/brands that receive ROM updates over a long period in time either by manufacturer and/or by custom ROMs.

Are there any experiences or tips you can share? Would be great!

Thank you in advance!

I hope someone can shed some light on this.

I have follow all the instruction that I could find to setup the aGPS on this phone.

The problem is, some time it only take about 10 to 20 seconds to lock on the satellite. Some time it takes a long time like 10 to 15 minutes, and sometime never.

I would like to get to the end of this. I have cooked and uses DCD's Rom, none of which makes any difference.

I must have flashed this phone for over 20 times and ech time with the same results.

It would work mostly in the day time (afternoon) but not at night or early AM.

Hope someone would be able to point me to the right direction.

Thanks in advance.

Here is what I have done wrong. I have remove/delete my data connection from the phone .

"Wifi will not work with the PDE Server. It will prevent the agps data from being downloaded if it is on."

"This requires a data connection. It will use 100 bytes (1/10 of 1Kilobyte) when accessing the PDE servers."

Go to your Comm Manager, switch to Flight Mode, switch back to Phone mode, launch your GPS program.

Thanks.

Now what have you DONE? Have you applied the TITAN aGPS fix found in the WIKI (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=VerizonAGPSFix) ? You will need to find the Telus aGPS settings but the entire first portion is relevant. Try that and let us know then what happens. Also, make sure your location in "Phone Settings" is set to on. BTW, why a custom ROM when Telus has a pretty solid GPS rom out?

I also BELIEVE this is the correct IP and Port for Telus. I found it at this link from PPCGEEKS... (http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=36377&highlight=Bell+aGPS)

PDE IP Address = 216.198.139.92

PDE Port Number = 8889

I've looked through official Samsung material and they currently don't offer any methods of rolling back the device to its previous update. It has vexed me with issues both aesthetic and software related and I was wondering if anyone perhaps preserved one of these builds, if it was possible at all, and if I could do it without bricking the phone! At the moment I feel crazy enough to try it and frankly this would be an educational experience. I've done a lot of work with Windows and I'm vaguely familiar with Linux terminals. Maybe I'm asking for too much.

If anyone out there is crazy enough to have an answer to my question, I would be very appreciative.

The Idea is an Application that Autoposts to a Web Page the Current Time, Lat, Long etc to a persons personal Web Handling page....

Thoughts for Preferences Would be something like

FORM FIELDS

Send Lat as: <LAT>

Send Lon as: <LON>

Send Time as: <TIME>

Send Elev as: BLANK

etc., etc.

SEND CRITERIA

Distance Changes >: <10> <mi>

Time Increments : <30> <min>

Dont send if Distance not met in time <checked>

Resend Later if Data Send Fails <checked>

WEBADDRESS

Send to: <http://gis.mymapsite.com/Upload.cfm>

Send as: Form <unchecked> or URL <checked>

The concept is that it sends out on a timed, distance, or time/distance combo bases to this site your URL Position so coders Code write their own server side code to log this data or do whatever with it.

this example would look like http://gis.mymapsite.com/Upload.cfm?LAT=45.6789&LON=-90.45679&TIME=10162008
