Hello,

I installed the VIVID car launcher and everything was ok.

The only problem is that when I start the car the unit goes back to the original launcher.

Is there any way to fix this?
[Android Head-Units] sebxtreme007:
hi, in the THEME application, at the top right select the gear, then manage the start application (the first choice above) and select vivid

valid, and restart :) ( if you want to know my opinion , Agama is better ;) )

Does anyone know of a stock miui rom for the Spes that has been debloated of ads and other crap and optimised? Don't mind whether it is a recovery rom or needs to be flashed with fastboot (or miflash).

I'm currently on v13 Android 11 the global version, quite happy to remain on that.

Can someone provide a link to the rom?

Thanks.

[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Microsheepcl:
I have tested a lot of roms, and in the end I installed the official one and removed software through adb, today I don't have any bugs or strange problems, besides that I can use the camera in its entirety. I got bored with the custom ones, some games don't run, others are terrible and at the moment there is no fix for this.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] maritimesbob:
Ditto, I always appreciate the custom roms and appreciate the efforts developers go to because there are a lot on here that do nothing but complain about custom roms, however I think I'd prefer a stable daily driver. There is no sign of the kernel source being released which would be a big help for the devs.

I've just finished flashing the stock rom and will go about debloating. There are a number of "safe to remove" lists for miui roms so I will get to work.

Thanks the replies guys.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Alex Zander-kun:
Hi, may I ask how did you flashed stock ROM? I recently tried to flash 13.0.5 A12 on mine through TWRP, it probably refuses to boot because after the ROM has finished flashing I flashed TWRP next. I also know the fastboot + miflash method but everytime I do it, it gives me anti rollback check error
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] maritimesbob:
I downloaded the miui.eu rom which is debloated and allegedly more optimised. I went back A11 the same as I had before I unlocked my bootloader. I flashed the fastboot version and used the bat script inside the zip to flash it.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Microsheepcl:
Ok, that's strange, it shouldn't give an antirollback error when you have the same version of android and miui.

Try again with myflash

But surely when flashing the official rom by twrp you damaged something, if I remember correctly the twrp of spes does not have support for flashing a stock rom, even less if it goes as an update.

Anyway, if you want to make your rom boot, try taking the boot.img out of the fastboot rom and flashing that boot.img to your phone and see if it boots.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Alex Zander-kun:
My first guess was that it was because at that time I was on an Android 13-based custom ROM (Pixel Experience Plus 13 and CrDroid 9.0), but I was proven wrong after I flashed PE+12 shortly before trying MiFlash. Because it gave me the same error (Anti-rollback check)

Oh, I actually tried the flash-stock-ROM-via-TWRP method after I tried MiFlash method, so I doubt that's the issue. But all I can say is a few days ago I flashed 13.0.5 A12 firmware (latest at the time of writing), so could that be that issue?

I might wanna try what you said, thanks for the suggestion. But for now, I'm on EU and may stay for a few months
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] SubwayChamp:
Always that I need as a base a stock ROM flashed, I "simply" use the fastboot commands that are inside the ROM, I open my ADB/fastboot CMD/terminal, and drag and drop the flash_all.bat file while in Windows or the flash_all.sh file while on Linux. This method allows to me, to can follow the process while the scripts are running, and search for issues (if there are some)

As per the TWRP flashing the stock ROM, it worked fine too. You just need to flash the ROM, then boot to recovery once, you'll find the stock one, then format data from it, then you are ready, either to go straight to system, or if you prefer have TWRP (or any custom recovery), go to fastboot and follow the method to boot to, and then flash it permanently to the ramdisk.

[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] jenneh:
Hello Friends,

Today I am releasing a tool called BOOTMOD, that is able to help users to easily root their Nvidia Shield (all models). This tool is a single executable that contains everything you need to gain a stock root and more. (Adb, fastboot, the usb drivers). Note that you do not need to be rooted to make use of BOOTMOD'S adb features like the no-code automatic apk installation, non-system apk uninstallation, file pushing, file pulling, and opening an adb shell.

The first time you run BOOTMOD, it will automatically build everything it needs in C:\BOOTMOD. It will then open an adb server for you, load the main menu, then display your connected device. When you close BOOTMOD, it will automatically kill the adb server for us, ensuring no servers are left running. The guide below will show you the rest of the features.

WARNINGS!!

Rooting your Shield will break AI Upscaling and Dolby Vision. . Also please be warned that you will lose data any time you go to unlock and relock the bootloader. Basically an auto factory reset will occur when you lock/ unlock, but you can flash the boot images /without/ data loss. (If you know how to fix the AI Upscaler feature, please share!! I had no luck with any of the previously mentioned methods but will continue trying)

Before you proceed, you will need to connect your Shield to your PC using a usb cable, and have usb debugging enabled on your Shield. Here is a video of this step if you need it.

You will also need to know what firmware version you are running. Here is a video of this step if you need it.

Rooting our Shields using this method (a "Stock Root") keeps us in a "user" build, as opposed to installing the userdebug "Developer Rooted" images supplied by Nvidia on Gameworks, ensuring that apps like Disney+ still appear natively on the Playstore. The Dev Rooted images are able to be system writable, which is dangerous for normal users, but convenient for devs / tinkerers. Where as a Stock Root will have the system set to read only, requiring the use of Magisk modules or TWRP to edit the system, which is safer for normal users but slightly more obnoxious for anyone wanting to tinker.

If you want to try the Developer Rooted images you may see this thread:

2015, 2017, & 2019 Nvidia Shield TV Firmware Repo & Source Code Repo

For all models, the 8.2.3 version needs to erase the userdata partition, which will force you to sign back into the shield again. The 2015 pro (500 GB) versions do not have this partition added to the script, so you will need to run factory reset...

This is great news for the Shield...the ai upscaling not working was the main reason i haven't rooted yet. Thank you for your time and efforts getting this together!

Bravo!
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] jenneh:
@louforgiveno it's only thanks to the Community haha. I was trying to do things in a much more complicated way and thanks to nooted and renate I understand that there is no need to reinvent the wheel and we can use the tools already made. (magisk + safetynet modules shared by ajolly) [still going to do complicated things tho.. got my uart serial adapter in today. idk how to use it but will find out and or bother renate till she blocks me :D]

This guide is a good reference to bypassing safetynet

--edit now after rewatching the video a few times I understand what nooted is talking about when they say this

" The Magisk Hide settings need to be set such that everything under Google Play Services is toggled on EXCEPT FOR the GMS one at the top. Also, toggle it on for Google Services Framework."

Thank you again sosososo much @nooted1 I feel so stupid I didn't realize what magisk actually is, or does. You are the reason I learned how to select the boot.img in magisk and tell it to patch it so I can share a modded image. Now I am like a million percent certain we can do something with the system and then we would have a rom after a little customizations!
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] jenneh:
@louforgiveno 100 Percent Confirmed! Disney + is in the playstore but--

HOW TO BUILD YOUR OWN "BOOT MOD":

For anyone who wanted to know how I made the boot mods I shared, so you can make it yourself if you want.

You can take the boot.img provided to us from NVIDIA and push it to your sd card.

adb push boot.img /sdcard/Download

Then use magisk to patch the image. I didn't know what this option Meant until yesterday. Haha

YOU HAVE TO DO THIS ON THE SHIELD OR A PHONE. AN EMULATOR WILL NOT WORK; This example uses nox because I didn't feel like recording my TV

View attachment 5774521

Magisk will tell you at the end what it named the file, then you could pull the image, rename it to whatever you like, and share it. (for instance i named mine bootmod.img with a batch to erase and reflash the partition)

This should work for other devices. So that's how you patch a boot now a days
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] ajolly:
Fantastic, glad it worked out. Thanks for testing it!

I mostlly want to go run cf.lumen on my shield to help with sleep.

Btw, I suspect patching the boot.img will work on any device with the same architecture - ie your phoe.
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] ajolly:
Why do you want that? You’d end up converting arm code to run on x86, way more efficent to just run an x86 version.

But if you really want, its possible - https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2020/03/run-arm-apps-on-android-emulator.html
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] jenneh:

i have not extensively tested it, but it seems like windows subsystem for android (on windows 11) includes an arm emulation layer. Overall its one of the nicest android emulation experiences, at the downside of not supporting all functionality properly - like notifications.

The rooting worked good, but ai upscaling does not work, I have tried your instructions. When I went to test out a video , it would only put it to basic not al-upscaling. I put it to enhance it says yes. But it's same as basic, no change in inhanced. And no to ai-enhanced. I did all the instructions that was given on this site. So I put back my Nvidia shield tv pro back to 9.1.1. thanks for all your hard work. ,🙂. Hope someone figure it out for Ai-enhanced.
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] jenneh:
Your message you mailed said you used 480 p video so no that would not work. I tried the same thing with little house on the prairies and then read an article that said to use 720p or 1080p

[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] abc1054:
I reinstall the Nvidia shield tv pro 9.1.1 and rooted it, everything works but the ai upscaling, and time before I installed 8.2.3. Even checked the safetynet and was all good. So I don't get why Ai upscaling don't work. Did everything in this forum. I'm confused, if someone ever tested it, with upscaling.. it does not work. Sorry. Test it twice now. No go. Video on 720p and 1080p. Thanks again.

[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] abc1054:
Google play is uncertified.. but rooted. When tested safety net was passed.. but play store is uncertified.. maybe its the problem of AI up scaling.
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] Zer0_rulz:
Clean installed 9.0 then manually updated 9.1.1, then did the instruction here, and got this result
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] jenneh:
Actually no, this question hasn't been asked as far as I am aware, and it's a good question so I did some testing to find out the answer. Will find a way of incorporating this knowledge into the new guide, thank you!

TLDR the answer: If you install the update, this will break your root. There is no data loss when re-rooting.

The experiment:

I reverted my shield back to 9.0.0 and ran the bootmod to make sure I had root before the update, then accepted the update and installed. When the shield rebooted, I verified it was on 9.1 and I opened magisk and verified that the update removed the root. The root is removed because the update patches the modded boot.img to a stock one. So to test the second part of your question, I ran the bootmod for 9.1, rebooted to the system and verified there was no data loss.

Capture the update (for future reference):

If you download only the update, and do not install, you can extract the update from the data/OTA folder using adb. After you have extracted the update, you may install it on the shield. Extract the boot.img from the update then patch it using magisk, and flash the mod and you will be set again. Flashing the boot mod will not delete your system data, it's just the locking/unlocking the bootloader that will cause a deletion or if you install a new system image.

what are some good reasons or benefits to rooting a shield? what are you all doing with your rooted shields? i have a 2019 / pro, totally open to giving this a shot just because i can lol
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] paradoxiumwind:
I'm late to the party.. if I follow the first post is that the latest way to root? I don't want to lose AI upscaling or Dolby Vision, is it possible now to not lose them? Either using lineageos or stock I don't mind (prefer to try lineage though).

Thank you guys.
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] jenneh:
Hi,

Sorry for not responding sooner, I was hoping to be able to have an answer to your previous question when building the update, but I ran into complications personally in trying to edit the build.prop using the stock root. This Post offers hope that one could edit their props in order to gain functionality but the trouble is the system is read/only with this stock root. A developer root would over come this, but I am more interested in how @Jdorman12 edited their props? Hopefully this will notify them? I know there are magisk modules available, but if @Jdorman12 can let us know if their 8.2.2 was stock root or developer root, and whether they used modules or what exactly they used to edit the props, that would be tremendously helpful.

I am personally just trying to get the update done for BOOTMOD for both the 2017 and 2019 versions and then I need to update another thread before I can try to figure out the build.prop edits, but will definitely try to confirm sooner if we hear back!
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] paradoxiumwind:
Oh so things are still being worked out and these are relatively new developments? that's cool. Thanks for your work! I will follow the progress and unless there's a chance of bricking I could test beta builds (I know there's always a risk but you know what I mean)
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] jenneh:
Spoiler content hidden.

I have to put some more work into my thread for Termux scripts, so I will be taking a small break here, but will resume where we left off - learning how to edit the props in a stock root, when it is done.

[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] kurtzyload:
Greetings everyone! I'm trying to set up the ultimate combo streaming (family/wife friendly) + retro emulation device. Android/Google TV fits the bill, but the paltry internal storage of most devices and inconsistent behavior of apps (LaunchBox / RetroArch) using USB-formatted-as-internal storage led me to having recently ebayed a 2015 500GB shield pro and swapping out the drive with an SSD.

All is going well on this journey, but of course 3GB RAM is rather limiting, and the 512MB swap file also seems rather paltry. My primary motivation for rooting is to increase swap file size, with the theory that apps will be less likely to "refresh" (act like they're opened for the first time) when switching back to them.

I've stumbled on this thread, which looks like it's the most up-to-date info on rooting a shield. The 2015 model isn't explicitly mentioned, but I am curious if the approach is generally still relevant (fastboot oem unlock, install twrp, install magisk), and/or if anyone is in a similar boat?

Thanks!
[Nvidia Shield TV & Shield TV Pro (2019) Guides, Ne] kurtzyload:
Ok! I've managed to piece everything together thanks to this thread and have su ability via magisk. I have delved into how shield manages swap, which is via "zram". Due to how that works and the compression ratio, I felt pretty safe setting swap to 1.5x RAM. If anyone is curious, on the 500GB shield that is located in this file:

/vendor/etc/fstab.foster_e_hdd

Specifically changing the "zramsize" value e.g.

/dev/block/zram0 none swap defaults zramsize=4831838208

The problem: shield continues to aggresively close apps in the background despite plenty of headroom now. Argh! Time to dive deeper and see where that is configured...
