Great! And I thought our tablet was dead to NVidia's eyes. Glad to be wrong.
Johny Hongkong - I dont understand the question, What product are you talking about with the K1?

Nice ! This tablet is the first Android device to receive 4 major official Android updates ! 4.4 KitKat to 7.0 Nougat. Long life to NVIDIA !!

Actually it's the second. Galaxy S3 LTE went from 4.0 to 4.4. And if it wanna get even more picky the Xiaomi Mi3 went from 4.3 to 6.0, along with the nexus 7 2013. Which would make it the fourth.
Plus the k1 is younger than the og shield

Nexus 7 was realesed under 4.3 ?
I'd certainly buy Nvidia again, they offer great driver support and the absolute best software update support, they have outclassed Google as they seem to be constantly trying to become Apple, forcing support limits on OEMs similar to what happened to the Z3 Nougat update
Yes but the k1 is technically the same tablet with no stylus and no included charger. Chances are when the k1 gets 7 so will the og pyro tablets well at least the replacement tablets will
I really hoped they would announce a new shield tablet, when they announced those new shield tvs....

It seems that Nvidia is not going to make tablets anymore, probably because they are producing the Nintendo Switch Hardware (which has capabilities similar to a gaming tablet). Not sure where I read this anyway.

It seems like they are taking a year off to work on the Switch (and they probably signed something that says they won't compete). The hardware inside the current Shield Tablet is so powerful it doesn't need a refresh anyway.

It's not all peaches and cream though, there are compatibility issues with a lot of apps, some don't run right or at all. Also some titles require you to re buy them for the x1 even though you own it already.

Based on the last CES Archos launched their Archos 101 Home tablet. Archos Home tablet edition has a much lower specs compared to Archos Internet tablet edition but in the video provided at Archosfans.com it says that it has support to Gingerbread and Future Version of android.
Does this mean that the Current Archos 101IT edition can still be upgrade to those version of android?
Any thoughts in thi matter???
Sent from my A101IT using Tapatalk
Of course it can be upgraded to the newer OS version. The big question is will Archos actually do it. I'm really hoping they will but won't be surprised if they don't.
if archos won't upgrade our A101IT maybe others can make custom roms? have any of you seen or heard if one is under development?

No one has mentioned making a Gingerbread ROM.
i stumbled upon a video on youtube. the video is captured at last weeks CES.
in the video they ask the guy if honeycomb will be on the tablet. he says "uh yah"
he also mentions how full flash capability will be available by end of month.
check out the video

lol. Not much of a commitment. Plus, this is the same crew that tried to say that the 7 Home Tablet is a Gen8 tablet. So, I think I will not be holding my breath on this one.
What do you think about 256 RAM issue? I suppose that 2.3 (even 3.0) could be run on 101IT, however, it may work very slow!

Exactly. We get into a Windows and Mac mindset but Android is different from those systems in that each progressive version gets a little better at using system resources, not worse so you don't always have to upgrade the hardware to run the new software. My original MyTouch phone with a 600 ghz processor and 128 mb of memory runs much smoother on froyo than it ever did on donut or eclair.
That said, there are diminishing returns and Honeycomb is really a major step up in terms of functionality so I am not holding my breath that Archos will take the time to upgrade considering they will be probably be putting out new devices by then. I love my A70 but I sort of look at it like an early adopter type device to see how useful the form factor for me (it is...I have an hour to 90 minute commute and it is perfect).
I plan to upgrade and maybe even get a contract (yikes!) for a honeycomb tablet later this year. I would never consider $275 chump change but if I can use it for 8 months to a year and then sell it for $100-150 to put toward an upgrade, I would be happy.
I considered the Galaxy Tab but a 2 year contract on this generation of devices is a bad move in my opinion.

Folks when to expect Android L on our devices! Lets discusse
No idea, but there's no way I'm updating from 4.3 till I'm sure I can use my SDcard the way it's meant to be used (without any restrictions). That, app ops, and battery life. Even then, I'll wait and let others be the guinea pig first and once the problems are ironed out, I'll upgrade directly to 5.0.
Hmm! Thats smart one! But i think aur sd card issues are finnaly solved in kitkat!!

To be honest, I'm not convinced Nvidia is going to bring L to the TN7. They seem to have all but forgotten it since the release of the Shield Tablet. Also, to anyone having battery life issues, have you tried a factory reset? I've had no battery life issues, and I'm running the latest update as well as the custom kernel on the dev page here with the tablet overclocked to the max.
If That happen then i will throw my tablet! I was too excited about it ! Therefore nexus 7(2012) model will get that update and in less time.
Till now im not having any issues with my battery . I havent rooted my tab yet.
I have seen several news sources that have stated the Note 7 will be getting 5.0. I'm really wondering how long it will take.

The NVIDIA Shield tablet facebook page states that the shield tablet will get the update first, then the Tegra Note 7 will be done later. Hopefully, it is not too much later.
Placing my bet on TN7 Android L release just after Christmas. Else it be the nVidia middle finger at us!
Either way let's hope the TN7 runs it better than my wife's Nexus 7 is at the moment.
Nvidia has said that they will surely update TN7 after shield tablet but no specific date is given!
Still no update? My tablet wants to update to KitKat, but I won't do it unless I can get lollipop. I've 20GB of apps on SD card so KitKat is not an option. Is lollipop going to be any better for this scenario?
Cheers
FYI guys, as cool as lollipop looks it may be a bad idea to DL it once it comes out.
I did some searching around to see how nexus owners liked it and it basically renders the 2012 version unusable and severely hampers the 2013 FHD version.
From what little info out there about how it runs on the Shield it sounds mostly positive.
My wife's N7 has been spot on since itngot a proper hard reset, I'd say its actually better than it was on KK now but that could be related to the fact its had the hard reset and some unused apps may not have been installed.

I've also heard many people report that their 2013 N7 is running fine; it seems the people having trouble with the update didn't do a full reset, which is always a good option for anyone having issues with any device. As for the 2012 N7, it's running a Tegra 3 while we're sporting a Tegra 4, so I'm sure it won't be a problem for us... frankly, the Tegra 3 was kind of a mess anyway.

Maybe they have been working on this the whole time to fix any of the bugs that are left on the tablet!
Excellent!
I am staggered to understand that we are getting Lollipop this month.
This puts us basically in-line with the Nexus line, but for a cheaper point of entry price and arguably better features with stylus and other things like wifi direct controller.

The nexus 7 2013 suffered from this as well. The teeny-tiny mainboard on the left of the screen got scorching hot and topped out at 79 Degrees Celsius for me before throttling started happening. I've not seen any throttling on the Shield Tab on the same games. The max I've seen the temp get to was about 40 degrees.

Yeah Nvidia is quite good at keeping chips cool, one of the best even so it is not surprising. That was a big factor in me picking up the Shield even though I knew about the N9 coming.

I went through and fastboot erased all partitions then flash stock and took all the OTA updates when the last update came out and my 5GHz has been close to on par with my 2.4GHz band from then on.

Chainfire rooted the Nexus 9 running Lollipop and im pretty sure he didnt have to use a kernel. BusyBox is also updated for Lollipop.
I'm not sure why it surprises anyone that Nvidia would be quick out of the gate to update to Lollipop. The K1 is one of what, 3 or 4 64-bit ARM chipsets out today?
I will admit, though, that I was somewhat unsure when I bought the Shield Tablet as to Nvidia's commitment to keeping it updated and their relatively small presence in Android devices. But given the processing power that is unlocked with a 64-bit OS and games that are optimized for 64-bit, it doesn't surprise me that they are committed to it at least for the 5.0 release. After that, we'll see. But honestly, 5.0 is such a major release that I can see not getting another major update for another two or three years, at which point most of us on XDA will have upgraded anyhow.
As for the question of whether it will be rooted, Android will *always* have a root exploit, and with 80% of the mobile market, there are so many eyes poring over the code to find it that it really isn't a question of "if" but "when".
Just to be clear, the Tegra k1 in the Shield tablet is not 64bit. Nvidia confusingly makes two versions of the k1. A 4 core arm7 (32bit) and a 2 core arm8 (64bit). The Shield tablet has the former, the nexus 9 has the latter.

True. Samsung sucks on updates.
Having said that, the only thing I miss from lollipop on my tablet is the smart clip feature. Almost everything else is available through third party app, root and Xposed. It's still one of the greatest tablets on the market. Which is the good thing about Samsung - the hardware is majorly future proof.
I wish they'd update the spen and snote features independent of system updates. Would make life so much easier.

If you are unsatisfied, then say something to them. Doing so on here won't help anyone. I have lollipop on my 607T and wish I never downloaded it, as I didn't have issues with the Bluetooth audio skipping. Lollipop may be a better OS overall, but it still comes with bugs even though it is 5.1.1

nexus (singular), nexi (plural)
Samsung has way too many devices out and therefore does only support the ones that have the biggest impact. Though I like to see at least 5.1.1 officially supported I feel it is wishful thinking and also made me turn my back on Samsung all together and I will enjoy the rest of it's life with a community ROM. (Although I did notice the developer just announcing he is stopping). It does run fine with 4 4.2 as well so 18 more months and I will allow myself a better supported tablet
I love this tablet, it is great in pretty much every aspect, except internal memory. I wished it could've been available in 64 and 128 GB variants, but it is what it is.
UPDATES though is the point where Samsung sucks. I'm running Marshmallow already on my Nexus 7 tablet (it's great by the way, smoother and faster than Lollipop) and only about to get Lollipop on this tablet. What the F... Samsung?!
I think it would be great to get Marshmallow to this tablet but I have a gut feeling that it is never going to happen

Yes it will, when pigs fly square circles around my living room....
But seriously, this tablet is now 2 years old(close enough), the agreement was to keep updated for 18 months... Be thankful we got 5.1.1 and not the less desirable 5.0 with its memory leaks and other problems...
What do you think, will samsung limit Nougat on the S2 to the newer Snapdragon version of the tablet?

The rumours about Nougat is getting louder:
https://www.sammobile.com/2016/12/19/galaxy-tab-s2-running-nougat-surfaces-on-gfxbench/
My galaxy tab s2 wifi only (t710) is still in 5.0.2 on sammobile but thanks to flashing, I was able to get MM. Now I am worried that my tab s2 will not get a proper nougat update because the update rolls out only to LTE versions.
According to this source (https://news.samsung.com/global/samsung-begins-rollout-of-android-7-0-nougat) the "Galaxy Tab S2 (LTE unlock)" will be included in the Android 7.0 update rollout for Samsung devices this year. Seems legit, considering it's from Samsung themselves
I think the S2 will get Nougat. It's just a case of when and how good it will be?
However, I also think that will be it. Absolutely no chance at all of getting Android 8.
Given my experience with Samsung tablets, I'm not even clear T813 will see an update to 7.x.
That would be 2 in a row for me (poorly supported Samsung tablets), and probably my last purchase from them.

The problem is, who else is making good spec Android tablets with Amoled screens? From my point of view, MM is running well and has been for the last 6 months. A Nougat upgrade would be nice, (especially for the multi window mode,) but I wouldn't loose any sleep if it wasn't updated. They do need to release a recent security update though.
As my experience with the One Plus 3 has been so good, I'd like to see them shake Samsung up by entering the tablet market. I know it wont happen but I can dream. :angel:

It would be a great thing for the tablet market to have OP enter. (maybe not great for the OP bottom line, as the tablet market seems to be stagnant.. still I think there is room for a Nexus-like tablet.. and Google seems to have abandoned that niche)

So it begs the question, what specs and how much would you be prepared to pay?
For me, take a OP3, put it in the tab S2 body and I'd happily pay £400 (~$450) all day long. Of course, it would have to be running OOS.

I bought a T813... hard to find a more expensive Android tablet
Coming from OP, I would expect it to cost less

As long as we have it by Easter, I will be happy. Nougat is awesome on my OnePlus 3 and the split screen mode will be great on the Tab S2.

Out of curiosity, how much did you have to give for it? I got my 32GB T813 as an impulse buy for $399 the other day, and while I've seen used ones for less, it felt like a decent deal for a new unit.
