i have been reading online and found a few of the how to guides on how to do this but unfortunatley the download links are broken i was wondering if anyone here would be willing to put an up to date guide together .... i was also wondering is if you always need your evo conected to the ps3 for it to work or is a one time thing ...also would like to know by doing this would i loose the ability to play games online with the ps3
with any console modding you may lose the ability to play online. I say may only because some games and consoles like the wii dont have checks to make sure you are not modded. the ps3 however i am sure has checks built in and will make it so you have to run a certain version to be able to play online, however there are some fixes to get the latest versions and still maintain modding functionality. This is my experiance with modding the wii but i am sure most still applies across all consoles.
yea i already have the wii mod .... pointless since the wii isnt ever used in my house id much rather have the ps3 mod and if possible to still play online that would be great knowledge
I wouldn't risk playing online with a mod. One update from sony will **** you up. Just like it did for hundreds of thousands of xbox owners. Not only did their live account get terminated, but they also got their hwid blacklisted.

no it doesnt need to stay connected. the files are out there an there are guides on this very forum and if your running 3.42 your screwed for the moment.
Firmware 3.42 means you're already SOL and have updated too far.
If you were 3.41 you could still use the jailbreak. You just need to be running the jailbreak kernel on your phone momentarily while you start up the PS3. Once it's on you can unplug the phone and return it to normal, but you will have to repeat every time you turn the PS3 off and on.
Also the workarounds for remaining able to play online have been defeated as well, so basically you have to have 3.41 or older and you can no longer go online at all (well do stuff that needs PSN)
Hello guys,
I am looking to get my phone to do screencast, I work either from home or in the office, and it is a pain to check IM's and SMS from the phone all day and night. I want to be able to just use the PC that I am working at.
I installed the SDK and attempted to get screencast to work on my rooted android 4.3 Note 3. However all I get is the picture of my phone, I can control the phone from the phone and the screencast updates, however it does not work in reverse whereby using the mouse and keyboard to control the phone.
I was just wondering if anyone has attempted this, has better solution, or knows that it will or will never work.
any help would be appreciated.
I think you would try teamviewer quicksupport with samsung addon
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 just got my grandmother this tablet and one of the key things I need to be able to do is remote into the tablet to see what she is seeing and help her through certain things. Why on earth do none of the programs work for this tablet and why the heck is team viewer enabled but only for commercial use? I have tried maybe 5 or 6 different apps and none of them work. I want to remote into the tablet either from my pc (preferred method) or from my android if needed.
Does anyone know what I can do? Remote assistance should be a no brainer and super easy to do. Kinda getting frustrated here... did I decide on the wrong tablet? Should I take it back and get something else? I just thought it was such a good buy for the price considering all the competition.
I'm currently searching for a working solution to possibly remote into my Nvidia Shield and take full control of the device, possibly with a pass thru of sound also. I've read a number of posts about teamviewer but none of them seem to actually get the job done completely. I did try teamviewer and I could see my Shield device, but could not control.
So far, best I found is scrycpy from GenyMobile on github. This let me use a PC to and network debugging into access and control the Shield. But this is on a PC and not an android device. And still search for a sound solution.
I also tried Vysor chrome extension, but again that is with a PC and it also seemed a bit slower than scrycpy.
Can anyone recommend a combination of apps? This device is currently non-rooted, but I could be root it if needed.
Thanks,
Paul
