Hi all,
Recently bought a shield to go with my panasonic cx802 4k TV..
I plugged it all in booted the nvidia logo popped up then black screen... Nothing I tried swapping ports restarting etc nothing.., so I hooked it up to monitor and went though new install changed the HDMI res setting to 720p un plugged and went back to my pana which now did display a picture... Problem is I cannot select a res higher that 720p which I'm finding really annoying.. Can any one help?
Guys I know it's my first post I'm not a total noob.. Just started a new name..
Would a fix for this be to install a custom ROM where I can more control??
Any advice welcome
You shouldn't need that! Btw have you got other sources hooked to your tv, BR player, AND have you tried the sat channel in 4k?
Edit: Saw a reply from @Koying regarding you must not uncheck SURFACE rendering but that was regarding Kodi, to have 4k working. You didn't mention Kodi, though!
Edit2: Have you tried disabling Cec control, if you had it enabled before?

Are you using the at least a HDMI 1.4 cable?
Hey guys, i have the same problem.
I think it's a real thing : https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/918948/shield-android-tv/stuck-at-720p-after-update/
https://forums.geforce.com/default/...shield-tv-stuck-at-720p60hz-max-on-4k-screen/
hen, i started my shield TV, and it was in 720p. When i try to change this on the system HDMI menu, i just have choice between 3 720P option.
I tried a brand new cable 2.0, same problem.
I reinstall my TV and my shield TV, same problem.
On a french forum i found someone talking about an Edid corruption, but i don't know what that's thing.
I couldn't test on another screen because i don't have one. I can read 4k movie with my popcorn hour on the same HDMI port, with the same hdmi cable as the shield TV.
Do you have a lead about a solution ?
Thanks !

EDID is the signature the TV send to connected device so the device know what the TV can do.
So if the EDID is corrupted or unknown to the device it will default to 720p or 1080p. IMO
Maybe you can perform a firmware upgrade on your TV and see if their will reset the TV itself . Check their support site.
Good luck.
Extended display identification data (EDID) is a data structure provided by a digital display to describe its capabilities to a video source (e.g. graphics card or set-top box). It is what enables a modern personal computer to know what kinds of monitors are connected to it.
Thank you, i did perform a firmware update just before the problem happen on my TV.
Maybe a downgrade could be a solution, i have no idea on how i can do that on philips TV
I tried to do a full install with nvidia img, but i never pass the "please wait .." steps
i could perform a hard reset of my tv, reflashing the first version of the firmware.
Still the same problem.
I will ask Nvidia for a RMA

Filty21 on another forum found a solution here's the solution, i'm trying :
I had the same problem: you have to factory reset your shield on other device like xbox one pass-through. I explain:
First let the Shield connected to your tv and try to factory then at popup confirmation click ok.
Second disconnect hdmi cable to connect it at an other device (xbox or receiver...). Let the shield in this state during 10 min.
Finally reconnect the shoeld to your tv. You will have choices resolution...
Hello.
I do not understand what you are talking about. Could you be clear? I have that same problem
I'm having the same problem on my Phillips tv
Did you manage to resolve this issue Alex?

I'm 99% certain the problem lies with your HDMI cable. Get a HDMI 2.0 or higher cable. A 1.4b cable by design doesn't support higher resolutions with a high refresh rate. It could do 4k but at 30hz only. 2.0 will support 4k , 2.0a will support 4k with HDR.
Hi there!
Like many others, my Shield TV also received the Experience 6.0 update. And, since my device is from the first generation, I was wondering if there would be a way to have always on functionality for the Assistant.
Of course, I know that there is the option to buy a second gen controller but, at 70€, that would be a bit too steep for the added functionality.
So, is there a change to add an always on microphone to the 1st Gen Shield TV? Maybe through an USB sound card? Any other ideas?
Thanks!
You can probably buy a cheap usb microphone from amazon or best buy something like that and plug it in or even use an old webcam that has a mic and plug it in I had an old Logitech one laying around and i used it like that basically the shield just needs a mic , so it would probably work it worked with the google search when i tried it.
Hi. Anyone got experience with connecting a Shenwan 2.4ghz gamepad to a MX10 Android TV box with Oreo. It has no inbuilt Bluetooth and the controller has a 2.4ghz USB dongle.
I'm going through the same problem however the gamepad is an IPEGA 9076, the MX10 does not recognize the USB dongle.
Yeah think it's maybe hit and miss then. Although the Shenwan or whoever the hell makes them, didn't work on any device at all eg ps3. Got refund and need to bin them!
I tried another and it works on the mx10.

Having said that tho the games that support a pad are probably less than 10% of the ones I tried. So not great as a console but not really what the mx10 was designed for despite the marketing. If you want a cheap dongle controller I'd try the above tho and works for me on other devices. Good price and feels like a ps3 pad. Only thing missing is vibration function. Sounds wrong but there you go!
Would an update of the MX10 firmware solve this problem? I think the original Android Oreo of this tvbox is incompatible with gamepads.

The Xbox one Bluetooth controller works flawlessly have one paired on my shield . Otherwise you may have to get some sort of dongle for the non Bluetooth version.
And to answer your question wallpaper change is not possible on the shield. At least on a non rooted one.
Try a different launcher possibly, HAL launcher seems to be very customizable

I have root an I've tried to put my Xbox one controller into Bluetooth mode my Sheild doesn't detect it
Make sure it is the Bluetooth version as I had the same issue then realised I have the Xbox one controller that uses WiFi and not Bluetooth but still has the 3.5mm headphone jack. I am currently saving up for the Bluetooth one
From what I have read the 2019 Shield TV Pro has the exact same motherboard as the 2017 16GB model. Both the 2019 and 2017 have the same model number (p2897). The only different that I read is the Terga X1+. I didn’t see any mention if the memory chips were changed or not on the 2019 model.
I decided to unlock my boot-loader and try to boot (but not flash) TWRP Shield TV Pie Edition and see if it work for possible root. It boots up every time. However no matter what I try the Shield TV won’t detect my mice. I tried six different mice and none worked. I tried both wireless and wired mice. I know with my old Shield TV if I hook the mouse upto a powered usb hub first then had that go to the Shield TV it would detect the mouse every time. Sadly, even this method didn’t work. The 2019 model will not detect any of my mice. I have no clue why.
I just thought I would share this information. If anyone has any suggestions or figured it out and/or gains root please post it here. Thank you
