Revert back to Stock Shield ROM - Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Thought, I'd try out the Full Android ROM, but after flashing just found out that the official Shield Remote doesn't work.
I would appreciate if, someone could tell me the steps to revert back to the stock nvidia rom that came with the shield and relock the bootloader.
Many thanks

Edit: Figured it out, just simple fastboot commands. Would be happy to assist others.

Same here, I decided to try the full Android ROM then started noticing a bug with the cast function crashing on me and having to restart my shield TV in order to get it operating again which is very inconvenient for me as I cast movies from my PC to my shield . Also the fact that I have to have my nvidia shield controller wired to my console by the way of USB is still bothering me, there is also limitations on what you can do and download to the console, the ROM is advertised as being able to do and download whatever you want into the console but that's not the case here as most apps are not compatible and Google Play Store wont show a lot of apps and games, I was able to download market helper and trick the Play Store into thinking that my shield TV is a different device therefore allowing me to download almost every app, the problem with this is that the games like Gangstar Vegas look like crap and I can't get any of my bluetooth controllers to work with the game not even the Nvidia shield controller that came with my console plugged in with USB when I know for a fact that i can play Gangstar with my bluetooth controllers because I play it on my Nexus 5 without an issue, I was also able to download Need for Speed Most Wanted and it look great but once again I wasn't able to get any of my bluetooth controllers working with it not even the Nvidia shield wired controller and I know that these two games support Bluetooth controller as I play them on my Nexus 5 and on my OUYA... my bluetooth controllers work with most games on GeForce now but a few games the buttons don't work which it's another inconvenience. Having to install droidmote to play some games it's also a deal breaker as I don't want to have to activate the service everytime I want to play a android game, I really don't play touch screen games on my console anyways. Using a mouse and keyboard to navigate really aggravates me, I don't like having to be swiping to navigate and pulling down on the status bar with a mouse as sometimes I have to pull down more than once. I really love that there is development for the Shield TV and I appreciate what Zulu has done for us all, Full Android works pretty well on it but for me right now Stock is the way to go and maybe down the road when development is further ahead I'll consider switching back to Full Android...

I recently tried out the full android rom on my shield tv pro and when I tried to get back to stuck I accidentally locked the bootloader first. Now I cant unlock the bootloader and it only says (bootloader) device cant be unlocked.
I can boot into the custom rom but there is no way I can flash stock or any other thing anymore.
Please help!! is there a way to force unlock the bootloader?

I got mine mk808 yesterday. I bought a mk802 in august but it "burned" after 1 week. I also think that the mk802 was very laggish... The mk808 is far much better!!!
So far I am very very very happy with it!

I got mine today. I ordered it over a week ago. Weird because I didn't get my shipping information until last night, and when I tracked it, it was already out for delivery.
My Measy Air Mouse R11 is screwed though I think. It keeps sliding to the left hand side. I even tried on my PC and it does the same thing. I've tried to resync it and screw with it, but it keeps moving. Very hard to use a mouse that doesn't stay still. The MK808 is fun. I just got it tonight. I haven't had the time to get really crazy with it. Seems to run ok and would be far more enjoyable with a good input device.
Ordered mine today (only $60), if it really works as reviews say, it's quite a bargain
Do you still have problems with the rc11 or are they solved ?

I fixed my Measy Air Mouse R11.
To reset the Gyros, you lay it flat and press and hold LEFT ARROW + G for a few seconds... making sure it is flat. Now it works great.
I'm having some weird issues with some misbehaving apps. Root explorer started freaking out. And now my FPse won't use OpenGL for the life of me. I'm interested in trying the CM10 build for it but the operation requirements are bland. Supposedly it requires CWM recovery, which is supplied but doesn't give specifics how or what order or process to get it done.
I have to say that it is a fun unit to work with and chews through FPse roms. I'm surprised how well it runs for a chinese chipset.
Flashing is a bit of a chore and instructions aren't very clear, so I'll post them here:
With the unit OFF:
Insert a paper clip into the reset hole and press it in and HOLD IT down.
Awkwardly insert the MicroUSB-PC cable into the OTG. This will power the unit and it should boot into Flash mode given you've held the paperclip down properly.
Trying to install eGalax Touch Screen linux driver
I'm trying to install the eGalax Touch Screen driver for Linux 2.6 that came with my liliput 7 inch touch screen. The touch screen is for use in my car. Using the mk802 II or ug808 to replace my audio system. I just need to get the driver installed. The driver installation script is looking for the locations "usr/local" and "usr/bin", but the only "usr" directory I can find is in "system/usr"... I'm not sure if I should use that location and create the local and bin directories there or not. But when I created the usr/local and usr/bin at the same level as system (which is in the "mnt" directory which is also at the same level as "root" directory (btw, I cannot find a "home" directory), the install seemed to work fine using Better Terminal Pro android app with the bash shell. However, when I restarted the device, the "usr" directory that I create was gone, so the driver install was wiped apparently, and the usb HDMI touch screen still does not work... I can post the bash script if that helps. This is the last thing I need to get this to work, then I can have a full Android ICS system in my car. Thanks in advance.
FYI The HDMI works great to view and use a usb mouse or the RII keyboard. they work great. It's just the touch screen input does not work. It used to when I first turned on the device with the touch screen on, but the x-y coordinates were reversed, hence attempting to install the driver. I have ICS compiled from source and may attempt to add the drivers into it and create an img to them load on the mk802 II, but I fear that I'll loose any proprietary hardware drivers that came with the mk802 II.
I also wanted to make a img backup using ROM Manager, but ClockworkMod is not available for the MK802 II. ANy leads on this would help. Been researching and testing this for a month now.

Ordered on the 26th for 65$ (actually cost £42 through paypal),
they shipped on the 29th (tracking never worked).
And it arrived on the 6th. So quicker than expected.
I've applied the firmware update which was a slightly newer build of 4.1. Mentioned in both these places (applied the tweaked one from deadhp1 for the play store location fix in case needed)

It now seems to play any avi / mkv / mp4 i've given it (usually on a usb stick or micro SD). It happily plays avi's over the network (using ES file explorer).
Its definitely better than the out of sync UG802 which wasn't quite right and the power lead came out too easily.
I use the custom stock video app (seems to come with most of the RockChip devices) and MX player (it looks a lot nicer)
I was looking for a device like this one and the reviews are really helpful

So confused... it's a USB drive that turns a TV into an Android PC? Does the TV require any special functionality to allow for that?

It is a mini PC that has HDMI output. Your TV must have a vacant HDMI input so you can plug the mini PC into it. My TV supports 1080p. And so I can set the output resolution on the mini PC to 1080p. But it also could be set to 720p as well. These don't come with any display so you have to plug it in to your TV or a monitor that supports HDMI. The audio is pushed through the HDMI as well. To control it you can use a USB mouse and/or USB keyboard. Your cheap wireless mouse will work but the USB ports do not have power to them so I've had to use a powered USB hub to make my wireless keyboard work further than a foot away from the USB dongle for the keyboard. The hub also allows you to plug in other devices like a USB camera. But the ones that work are somewhat limited , be aware. Does that help you understand it?

probably you will need the kernel sources. also, you need root access. that error (directories that get lost after reboot) might be due to yo need to remount the /system partition in rw mode (by default is ro) and perhaps you will neet to do some symlinks on /bin to /system/xbin.
other thing you..must get in considwration is that android is different from linux.. and that you might need to compile the kernel module, such thiing im not sure that is posible from within the device itself...
or.. i just might be way off track, in which case jyst dismiss my answer

just so you know it doesn't have built in bluetooth.
if you need bluetooth google for imito mx1. this one seems to be the best mk808 model so far. i got mine last month but haven't tried bluetooth yet. antutu gives a score around 6500. it's a nice toy to play with on bigscreen tvs.
I read up on this one. Good vid review at http://youtu.be/X8pozwuAq7w
Anyone know the spec diff between this and the MX2?
and is geekbuying the best seller for this device or ???

can anyone comment on this non-support of XBMC for Rockchip? and if not Rockchip, which stick-PC gets it right?
one comment also that I would like more info on is that both iMITO units underperform compared to MK808
"Lack of XBMC support for HD hardware acceleration is a major issue that Rockchip needs to address if they want to keep selling SoC chips to the Stick PC mfgrs. Stick PC makers need 2 take action on this as well and if Rockchip won't play ball, they need to consider alternative SoC. We need more processing power anyway to get close to current smart-phone level and play the latest 3D games."

[Q] Help! Why TN7 can not connect to DualShock3 via bluetooth?

Hi there! I bought a Tegra Note7 which is equipped with Tegra4 Chipsets.Now I want to play games with DualShock3 via SIXAXIS CONTROLLER. The thing is that the app worked very well on my Moto Droid Bionic,but it did not work on my Tegra Note7. When I clicked "start" with every necessary steps done and the screen displayed address of bluetooth and listening for controllers,the "bluetooth" icon did not appear on the top status bar. So the DS3 controller was continuous flashing its 4 red lights,then no other things took place.
I have restored original android 4.3 rom,no changes. Could*you*please*tell me how to work it out? Thank you!
Before I rooted tablet I was able to plug ps3 controller in and was able to map buttons m8 I also used sixaxis enabler and everything fine until rooted then lost all ps3 controller mappings there's very little info on this subject I asked before ,something to do with Bluetooth drivers !

There's really nothing to figure out. The bluetooth stack on the stock ROM just doesn't work with PS3 controllers. Until someone can make a custom ROM with some sort of changes to bluetooth (or until Nvidia releases a ROM with decent bluetooth support), it's just not going to work, and there's nothing we can do to change that.

Thank you for your definite answer! Anyway I now understand what is going on with Tegra Note7, and I have substituted DS3 for wamo pro2 .I hope it can function on my device via bluetooth.

It's technically possible, but there has been almost no developer interest in this device. There are no custom ROMs available, and there's only one alternative kernel available, though I never did try a Sixaxis with that kernel... I do know that it broke support for my Moga, so that's not exactly promising. I'll have to give the Sixaxis a try here in a bit.

Assuming you mean shaky156 kernel I can confirm that it doesn't help the bluetooth issue
Just tried the latest version of Sixaxis with the latest OTA. And it seems to finally work on the built in blutooth stack without a usb dongle!

New Firmware MO0205-TS

Hi all,
it seems like there is finally a new firmware available, you can grab it HERE.
Did somebody try it out? Is it KitKat? And does it have Ouya Everywhere?
Yes it has Oyua everywhere and also 4k support but it's still 4.2.2
Also rooting with Modaco broke my Wi-Fi

firmware
That firmware was installed on my MOJO when I rooted it on Saturday. I don't have alot of experience, but the only problem I can report is some streaming issues with SD content over WiFi.
Already rooted

Still 4.2.2? Did you root using Modaco after the upgrade? Why would they not upgrade to 4.4.2 just like every other box out there at this point? No changelog for this firmware either?

If you haven't done so, in order to restore WiFi, you must do a factory reset. Sucks, but it is the only fix I was able to find.

I rooted with towelroot, now everything is working fine except Watchever (crashing when starting video)
Does installing this do a full wipe? And do you lose root? I don't care about wifi.. I'm hardwired.
---------- Post added 25th June 2014 at 12:15 AM ---------- Previous post was 24th June 2014 at 11:15 PM ----------
To answer my own questions - no, it does not do a wipe. Yes, you do lose root.
Rerooting worked. I did not test wifi. If wifi is breaking for some people, I imagine the problem might be that the root process looks like it's just flashing a kernel. Without kernel modules (usually part of a rom), wifi and other stuff (power saving etc) sometimes fail from a mismatch. We might need a current root kernel to flash.
wow, good news!
I wonder why MCZ haven't announced it already
I'm guessing public testing..root update..
Shame it's not kitkat tho:crying: but still great to get ouya everywhere and 4k display option :highfive:
I see some changes:
- HDMI 4K2K option.
- Better compatibility in Google Play without root.
- Ouya store. But It didn´t work yesterday.

Do I just put it in the root directory?
Do I have to download all the files or only the one from 6/14?

I'm not really sure about how the android updates work -- especially in regards to each individual micro-console -- but if the versions you get are more or less the same as on the Shield, I think I'd count myself lucky that you haven't been updated to KitKat yet. On the Shield, many of the emulators seem to have a permanent slight stutter now, whereas before on Jelly bean, they apparently ran very smooth (this is Hearsay from around the forums, as I just got my Shield about a week ago. I can attest that quite a few of the emus stutter though.) As someone who mainly uses these consoles for emulation purposes, it's quite a let down, and I've even thought of switching my Shield out for a Mojo because of it (that's not the only reason, but a major one.) Having Ouya Everywhere available is another reason I'd like to switch; not sure Nvidia will ever get one board with it.

We need an upgrade from 4.2.2, even if it's to 4.3 for BT4 stack and remove the USB dongle and for also openGL ES3 (4.2.2 is 2.2 and getting old)

Yes, this would be great. I just want to be able to get rid of the dongle to free up a USB port. This would be a great improvement
incompatible list through the roof
Has anyone else noticed since this latest update the incompatible list of games has gone through the roof. Literally only about 20% of what I used to have on the mojo will reinstall, the rest just have the your devise is incompatible message. I've tried deleting my data files and clearing the catch to see if it helped out but nothing.
Once step forwards two steps back. Sigh
Edit: i was able to force Blitz brigade to install, accessing my google account via a desktop and selecting blitz brigade to install to mojo (u have to make sure your using wifi not using the ethernet on the mojo) this auto started the install on the mojo. This was one of the games which used to be compatible but is now showing as incompatible on my mojo.
This trick didnt work for nova 3 or modern combat 5 so appears to be rather hit and miss
Off topic but if you havent got MC5 yet get it jumped on bounds since mc4, the control system has improved dramatically from all the other mc games and it wasnt particularly bad on them to begin with. Not played it online yet but the solo mode has been pretty epic, works really well with the c.t.r.l.r and the sixaxis pads the apk has them both mapped to work straight out the box.

Did you re-rooted after applying the latest update?
Thanks for the info on MC5, it's defiantly on my radar!

IR remote for Shield TV with Full Android 5.1

Hello,
unfortunately I can't post direct to the thread of the Full Android 5.1 rom for the nvidia shield TV.
With this rom wifi for the original remote is disabled.
Therefore I'm looking for a replacement which should be quite small like the original one.
Could someone suggest one which I can use together with Plex. I know I can use DroidMote but I don't have an Android mobile phone (I'm using iPhone 5s).
An IR-keyboard is working but it's to big which I have.
So I someone can suggest one it would be grateful. Or does anybody know how I can get an Apple remote working with Android 5.1?
Thanks in advance
Huberer
After some searching I found a suggestion about using an Amazon Fire TV Stick remote. There's also a youtube video which shows how to set up. Now I made my decision and bought this remote.
Just for info.
If someone is interested. Here is the youtube-video which I mentioned before.
Thanks for the video link mate.
You're welcome. Got my remote yesterday and installed it within seconds. Works perfect.

Redmi note 7 - ps4 controller

Hello I really need some insight with this. I just bought an otg cable for pairning my redmi note 7 with my ps4 controller because I couldnt fix the input delay via blutooth and the continuous connect fix was not working for me(with both new and old version of the program) . When I paired the controller with the cable nothing happened, I then tried with my ps3 controller again nothing happened.They just charge and that's it, no inputs. When i put a mouse on the otg cable the mouse worked normally. When I tried it with my friend's Mi9t everything worked fine ! I tried the USB debugging settings etc, still the same. Is there any way to fix this?
i haven't tried it myself but maybe this could help you :
https://in.c.mi.com/thread-221458-1-1.html
Thanks I will try this when I get off work and will post the results. I hope this works cause I use my device as an emulation station and this is a big problem for me.

What program are you using and what ROM?

hello, I used the Bluetooth Auto Connect (both the most recent version and an old one which some people said that works better) with no luck. Everything works as it should for a minute or so and then lags kick in and everything is unplayable. I use the most recent MIUI Global 10.3.10. Waiting for thw MIUI 11 update any day now.

Hey it kinda works that way. I mean you have to set it up time after time, after time but it works. So it is the same uncompatibility with the ps4 controller the owners of K20 and K20 Pro are posting about, I just cant figure out why it works fine via bluetooth(minus the insane lag) and not with the otg cable. It's a pain in the ass to set it all over again every time you need to play something in an emulator, but hey, it works I guess. I really hope they will fix this with the imminent MIUI 11 and add native support of the ps4 controller on this model cause I will be forced to sell it and I really like my note 7. Thanks again for your help!

The last time I used my Xbox One S controller was fine (I know its not your case) but I flashed a module from magisk to use it, and I see one for the ps4 controllers in the repos. Maybe it helps?

do you have to be rooted for that? I run official MIUI 10, soon 11. I really dont want to bother with roots, custom APKs etc.

It works for me this way but you have to set it up every time and it's kinda annoying. Sometimes it takes a minute or two once im in the emulators to recognise the control schemes.

i tried that method but the controller ps3 isn't being detected by the phonenor in the app -when i connect it it says "device is dead" , and the ps4 controller is detected in the app but not in game nor controlling the phone/home screen .
which controller is working for you ? is it working for you outside the emulator games ? if so , which games ?
and btw , is your phone rooted or not ?

Im using the PS4 controller. Sadly my PS3 controller is busted and I cannot test it in order to help you. Yes it is working outside of games with the method described above. You just use it as an alternative input method, so in other words you forfeit the keyboard and you use the controller as an input method. You cannot use the keyboard at the same time and after you disconnect the controller you need to reverse the default input method back to the keyboard in order to use the phone. Its not plug and play, you have to set it every time as I mentioned above but at least it works this way with little to no lag. I have tried it with Mame, Epsxe, Retroarch, PPSSPP, everything works I had no problems with any of the games I tried. My redmi Note 7 is not rooted and runs all the latest updates.

thanks for the respond , i got the ps4 controller to work in the emulator PPSSPP . although that's not what i was trying to solve , i wanted to use the controller in games/apps -the ones you download from the play store like FIFA,NFS etc.. - outside the emulator. but i think i'll have to root my phone to remap the touch control for these games.
i'll have to wait for a week to unlock the bootloader then i'll try again after rooting.
thanks again bro <3
