Shield TV Pro (2015) ports not working - Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Have a Shield TV Pro (2015) was working fine. Not using it for a long time due to moving. Turn it on this week and now no ports are working. I use usb cable to connect it to PC, but no device recognized. Plugged it to my router, can not see it connect to the lan. I tried to use usb cable to connect to my phone to see if it will charge my phone. Got nothing at all. and HDMI no signal at all. However, the lights on and the hard drive can spin.
Has anyone tried USB-TTL or jtag to recover it?
for those gave replaced hard drive. Is it possible that the hard drive problem could cause no port working?
Still stock firmware, never rooted. Please help. Thanks.

shield tv pro 2015 ethernet port not working
I was using it to stream a movie last night, turned it on this morning no ethernet connection. Tried everything, factory reset was my last option, still no joy. With out cable connection in australia the unit is a paper weight. Anyone have any suggestions, looks like the l/0 board in these things can be changed out pretty easily, but were do you get the spare parts?

[Q] Acer HDMI issues?

Just wondered if anyone has had any issues with their tv recognizing their tablet when it's connected to the HDMI port? When I connect to my television, it acts like it's going to recognize it, but then it goes back to a blue screen saying no signal. It worked when I first got the tablet, but now it won't seem to recognize it. When i connect the HDMI, my tablet does recognize that it's connected, although sometimes i have to jiggle it a bit. I'm wondering if it might just be a hardware issue.
The only thing i've done to the tablet is flash a custom rom (Honeylicious), and everything works perfectly. I've connected my DVD player to the same HDMI port, and it works fine.
Mine does the same thing when I first hook up the cable. So I just unplug the cable and put it back in a second time, then it works. Strange but true.

Sometimes I need to boot up with the HDMI already in the tab and TV. Something to do with the handshake between the two.

Wake Up - No Picture, but does have sound

Hi,
I just got a 2017 16gb Shield that is conencted up to my Sony KDL-50W829B
When I first started it, it worked fine I added some apps etc and connected a USB HDD.
Then my logitech harmony.
No for some reason when I power it up via the Harmony or on the Shield's remotes themselves it will turn both the TV on and the Shield but it outputs no picture, there is sound however.
I have tried different hdmi ports and also unplugged the USB HDD as I heard that causes issues. But still no luck it doesn't seem to start. Sometimes if i just leave it, it seems to eventually show a picture.
Any thoughts? I do have a new HDMI cable coming to test (although tbf the cable I'm using works fine for other devices, but doesn't hurt to try I guess)

Eonon GA2163 wifi issues.

So, I finished the install on my new head unit last night and everything works beautifully except the wifi. It will not come on at all. I go into settings and click the wifi on button and it just sits there "To show available connections turn on your wifi." I was thinking about doing a factory reset on the unit, but I can't find the password anywhere. From everything I've read it's probably going to be a hardware issue so I'd like to get a USB hub and a USB wifi dongle, this would be cheaper and faster then sending it back to Eonon. Everyone says you have to get a powered USB hub for this to work, so where are you guys plugging these hubs in at to get power? All of them say 5v 2.5 amps and that's a lot less then my truck puts out. Anyways, I guess my questions are... Does anyone have any suggestions on troubleshooting the built in wifi (password to do a factory reset maybe). What USB hub would you suggest? How are you connecting the hub to your vehicle's power? What USB wifi dongle would you suggest?

Alright, this is what I came up with for the USB hub.

Last night I was getting everything put together and I had everything disconnected, after I reconnect the stereo I turned my truck on to make sure it was working and to my surprise wifi came on. I was so happy! I turned the truck off and back on reset the stereo and wifi was still working. So, I hooked everything back up, plugged in my usb camera and usb hub, turned the truck back on and wifi was not working again. After some tinkering around I figured out if I have anything plugged into the blue usb cable wifi doesn't work. Here is a video of what it is doing. For now I just wont use that usb port.
Did you end up working out what the issue is or just replace? I have a similar issue (haven't checked the USB where is only connects to my mobile hotspot. Every other WIFI doesn't show up. Will need to check the USB.
Cheers

Make sure your dongle is plugged into the USB 3 port. I didn't have to do anything else and mine works fine.

Xtrons PSF7FSFA - intermittent USB connection issue

Hiya, new to forum. Done a search and couldn't find any specific help for my issue.
I have an XTRONS android 12 headunit specific shape for a MK4 Ford Mondeo. Model number is PFS7FSFA_B.
The issue I have is with the USB cable and android auto. I had issues with the stock software for screen mirroring in that it needs an Internet connection (better than a mobile hotspot I've read) to validate or something. Couldn't get that to work. Some googling found me the HUR Headunit Reloaded app.
Paid for that and downloaded it. Managed to get it all setup and working. Then after changing screen resolution in the HUR app it would no longer see that I connected my phone. It would charge but wouldnt actually connect.
I'm using the red USB cable that plugs into the headunit per the instructions.
Issue seems intermittent as yesterday I got it working after a lot of fiddling, then it stopped. Then I pulled the power to the Headunit and it got going again.
But this morning not working again.
I attempted to download the wireless app to try that but couldn't really understand which device needed the hotspot running on it as the instructions were a little ambiguous.
Phone is a pixel 7 pro.
Where should I start looking to troubleshoot this issue. OR are these units just junk in the first place?
Any help appreciated
For reference the USB cable I'm using is brand new, high quality braided cable, data transfer on other devices is fine as I checked, I also tried a couple different cables to the same avail. Leading me to think it's either a software issue in the headunit/app or an actual hardware issue?
Evening update on my USB woes, its now stopped charging the phone at all, it does register that I have plugged the cable into the phone, but when I check the "battery app" on the phone it does not show that its charging.
There were 2 USB cables in the box with this unit, a 4pin plug with a red USB socket, and a 6pin plug with a black USB socket, all the info seemed to point towards the red one labelled mirror link that I need to use. Can anyone confirm if this is correct? Do the 4/6pin plugs work differently or have different power outputs or something?
