Hoping for ADT-1 help - Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, just got my secondhand adt-1 and set everything up
HDMI-CEC was working great. Playback control buttons work great in the media browser app, but I assume needed a keymap for kodi. The home button would take you to leanback
In Kodi, arrows back and enter worked as well as the numbers (surprisingly)
After it updated nothing is working as far as I can tell. What can I do to get this back to how it was working in the preview?

Factory data reset seems to have done the trick
I would have thought the reset would take me back to the preview release, but after the reset I went into settings and it still says 5.0.2 (It's also easy to see the difference because Google "greyed" a lot of blacks in the interface)

Marshmallow Nexus player Issues. Can anyone confirm?

Confirm so I know its not just me?
* Bluetooth in general seems to stop responding altogether after awhile. Restart required to get it working. Seems most noticeable when trying to play using a gamepad (NES30 bluetooth gamepad)
* sixaxis pair tool cant seem to configure driver. retries about 3 or 4 times, eventually gives up and restores bluetooth state
* can no longer change default launcher. HALLauncher for instance, does not let me use it as default launcher anymore.
* bluetooth seems to momentarily freeze. Using my nexus remote, sometimes remote stops responding but a usb connected keyboard still works even during this period. remote eventually goes back to normal.
(for the record, I am rooted, though alot of these issues still occured whether rooted or not.)
i cant answer about the sixaxis tool or the default launcher issues but ive been running all weekend with zero bluetooth issues.
honestly zero issues at all but i mostly use it for kodi and youtube.
in general everything is pretty responsive and chromecast mirroring from my gs6 is a lot better.
Can you clear defaults of leanback launcher to hopefully set the default launcher when you press the home key

Home and recent button disabled

Hi all,
After hooking my phone up to a car stereo, the home and recent key stopped working.
Let me explain:
I just bought a Pioneer avh-x5800dab, with a built in feature that makes it possible to mirror your android device to your head unit. When i unplugged my phone from the head unit, the recent and home button stopped working.
The recent button lights up when i press it, and i can wake and unlock my phone with the home key. Also, both keys works in TWRP. So to me it seems android has unmapped the keys.
Back key works as normal.
I am running KryxOS R1.3
What i have tried so far:
Wipe cache and dalvik.
Uninstalled all apps related to the pioneer head unit.
Dirty flashed the rom.
I would prefer not to clean flash the rom again. Any help and suggestions would be hugely appreciated!
Similar issue
Not sure what causes it but im alao having a similar issue. Home buttong sometimes works on and off but my recent windows key does not register. It recognizes when i tap it but does not work. Also notifications no longer show up at the top.
Having the same issue
Having the same issue with the home and recent buttons, but mine isn't related to the Pioneer software. Notice that I suddenly can't uninstall apps from within the app manager, so I'm wondering if it's related to a security setting. Can't find anything that looks out of place though.

Possible Fix
As I was reviewing some of my settings I got a random notification that I couldn't review a setting because my password had expired. I went into Settings -> Lock Screen and Security and set a new PIN for myself. Home and recent buttons work again and I can delete apps. Weird. Hope it continues to work.

Weird problem with emulator. Any help will be much appreciated.

Although games run pretty much great on my device on the PPSSPP emulator, the buttons are not working properly.
What I mean by that is when I press directly above, say, the X button, the button doesn't activate.
Same goes for all the buttons in the virtual touch controller.
I have to press a bit to the left of each button to register the touch, which makes playing irritating. (check the attachment to understand better)
I'm on Android 7.1.1, tested latest stable and test build of PPSSPP, both produced the same result.
I also went all the way back to 1.0 version but no dice.
Tested the touchscreen itself through Android developer mode-> Show pointer location and it was working as it should, so the phone is not to blame either.
Tried to change touch settings but couldn't manage to fix it.
What did work but it's not sufficient was the Retroarch application using PPSSPP core, the buttons worked just fine, but this is not a viable solution because the core in Retroarch is a really old version of PPSSPP.
So long story short help me, I tried anything I could think of and I'm stuck.
Have a nice day.
I fixed it.
If anyone wants to know how, a Redditor gave me the idea.
You just have to force the on screen navigation buttons and it will work nicely.

Help! Extra Setting and Steering Control Settings don't load No physical buttons work

Hi All
I have been reading these forums and generally googling day and night trying to work out what went wrong but haven't been able to solve it so far.
So by means of context I bought an android HU (Brand: Andream EW822P8QH) from aliexpress and was working flawlessly until about two weeks ago.
Details can be found aliexpress dot com /item/Octa-Core-2G-RAM-32G-ROM-Car-DVD-Player-Stereo-Android-7-1-Navigation-BT-For/32834839813.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.3da24c4dDGESm4
It's running 7.1.2 and was running the CarWebGuru launcher, when apparently it asked for an update.
Since then, none of the physical buttons work. I've lost all steering wheel controls, so am now just reliant on the touch screen itself, so cannot control volume, etc.
Reading all forums, I understood that under Settings - Car Settings - Steering Control settings should allow you to reconfigure all the buttons once again. Unfortunately when I try to load it, the screen goes white, then goes back to the start of the Setting menu. (Interesting, I had a short cut to Steering Controls on my desktop, but again when I launch it, screen goes black then, back to the desktop
I thought there was something in Settings - Car Settings - Extra Settings, by pressing the code 123456, but once again the screen goes white and seems to go back to the start.
It just seems as though, both these settings areas are corrupted/ gone now.
Can anybody provide me with any clues on what I can get this working again?
Happy to do a factory reset, but nothing seems to happen through the Setting menu.
Was thinking is it even possible to install a new ROM etc. I would say while I've done this on my phone, never on a head unit so welcome any advice on which ROM and some guidance on steps.
Oh I can access the Settings - Dev Options by entering the code 7890 so do let me know if you want me to look at anything there. Interesting one last symptom, my navigation menu bar (by swiping down from top of the screen) no longer works., so definitely seems like something buggy is going on.
Thanks in advance to all who reply.

Nvidia Shield TV (2015) random problems with Apps,Leanback UI and Controller buttons.

Hi Guys, After a random problem one day that included missing apps on the home screen and controller not functioning at all -- I did the following:
Memory card in card slot removed and re-inserted (32gb set as storage and many apps transferred to it freeing up the first 16gb). Rebooted shield and could now find apps , but controller was still only working via USB lead connected to Shield TV. Previously i had experienced similar problems and this had worked before, along with holding controller buttons for 20+ seconds to reset it.
Next step was:
I fully charged the controller as this had proved to be a problem a few times before when having strange controller issues. THIS WAS WHEN I REALISED the following also;
1) Had to input all account details again for Google account, Nvidia Account, You tube account, Steam account etc.etc..
2) Home button no longer works as the home button and also cannot double click to get the screen showing all open apps. It does make audio clicks as normal AND does show the streaming options/picture saving options when you long press it, (so the button is functioning of sorts.) I have since realised that the back button next to the Nvidia light button now works like the home button but you cannot double click it to show all open apps.
3) When I click on the google icon at the top left of the home screen next to the KB icon for voice searches. It does not work. ( though you tube speech searches work fine) It does accept searches after pressing the Nvidia button though when on the home screen.
4) The developer options in the settings menu were always on previously but, now it says that these options are on but "unavailable for this user" when pressed and are greyed out.
5) on/off sensor button on the top of the shield no longer works. (this is very similar to my wife Shield upstairs but hers is a 2017 model. She uses the remote or controller to turn off via the settings menu.
So......thinking of just resetting the Shield to factory settings and starting again but wanted advice before doing this and perhaps adding to the issues???
It seems to me that given all the different problems this is the only way??? My gut is actually telling me that it's an update that has happened and it has confused the 2017 model with mine???? or am I just seeing GHOSTS???
Any constructive advice would be appreciated.
