nVidia Shield 2015 (P2571) WiFi issues - Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all
I've started using my nVidia Shield 2015 (P2571) a lot more recently, unfortunately it's started to develop an issue whereby it will disconnect from my WiFi intermittently.
I've done a Google search and apparently it's a known issue, I just wondered what you guys (the goto guru's and experts) could advise if there is a specific fix?
Thanks in advance.

Where does a guy go to get the updated APK file for Free Range TV (Blue Curve) I am new at the game and would like to install it on my Nvidia Shield Pro. Thank you

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

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.

CS918s Android TV box

This unit is quite widely sold but there doesn't seem to be much of a community supporting it. There was some stuff over on DragonDevs, in particular a custom ROM by dvalin21, who also hangs around here, but that forum seems to have died.
The manufacturer of this box isn't exactly supporting it with firmware updates, last official update is over a year old, Android 4.4.2, I have some problems and was hoping there was a community out there to help solve it:
- remote control stopped working - LED still blinks on the device, but most commands not carried out by the OS (other than Power Off I think) - I have factory reset but it hasn't fixed the problem, also tried programming a universal remote from the C918S remote and it receives input but doesn't work with the box still
- xpad.ko not present, the box doesn't support xbox 360 controller out of the box, it seems, and I was hoping someone would've come up with a module for that (dvalin21's custom rom may contain it, but I can't download it and anyway it's old now). Annoying, all of these Android TV boxes would make neat little games consoles if only they included this support.
Any other savvy users of the OTT CS918S out there?
Hello! I have a CS918S also more than four years, very good, I had some problems got around with some roms. Maybe I can help on something. What problems your presented? If you have any error in English is due to be using a translator ...

Directv Now for Shield and Android TV HELP!

Hi all. I'm new to the forum so please let me know if this is the wrong place for this post. So I have an Nvidia Shield and also just bought a new Sony Xbr75x850e TV with Android TV which I love. I've tried downloading several Directv Now APKs to both and every time I try to open them they stop instantly. Has anyone recently tried this and been successful?

Android 10 Raspberry Pi: Reset loop when Ethernet removed and skype issue. Plz help.

Dear XDA developer forum members and Android enthusiastic,
Hope you all are all in good health and doing good.
I am basically a Electronic hardware guy with limited knowledge on Android.
With some efforts in last few weekends I could successfully install an Android 10 build into my raspberry Pi 4 single board computer.
This works all right when the Ethernet is always connected.
1. When Ethernet it disconnected it goes into a reset loop and even does not connect to wifi with correct password? Can anybody share how to move forward to solve this ? You can see this failure at the end of the below
youtube video : ZYfnSwyDHfQ
2. When I start skype it does not connect always, probably because skype for Android always looks for an wifi connection… so it fails to sign me in. Work around >> with skype lite I can log in.
Can anybody guide me how to force skype to sign in using the Ethernet in Android?
In some attempts when I was lucky to connect the wi-fi and sign in skype.. then it works all right even when I later connect my Ethernet.
Kind regards,
SC

Triodexe 15.1 Lineage casting not working

I am trying to turn my shield tablet into basically an android TV box. I am trying to get Prime, Netflix, and Cinema apk to play on tablet and cast to Roku box. I used to be able to do it no problem. I do not know what changed. I am running Triodexe 15.1 Lineage. I am trying to cast to my Roku Ultra. I know your devices have to be on the same wireless network which they are. If it isn't the tablet doing it the only thing I can think of that possibly changed is ROM and now my wireless network just has one network name for both 2.4 and 5. This new router just sets up one network and prioritizes devices automatically for which network the device will use. As far as ROM I cannot remember which one I had it working on. Is anyone else able to confirm casting is working on this app?
Update - When using Lineage I could not get my PS4 to connect via Bluetooth. This was in addition to not being able to use the cast button. I ended up finding a solution to the casting problem. I downloaded Cast to TV-Xcast from the Google play store once it was setup I was able to detect my wifi connection and get it setup. I decided to experiment trying get the PS4 controller working. I seen Magisk actually has a module to add support for the PS4. I installed it and it did not work. Therefore, I decided to try another custom ROM. I am now running ASOP 6.7 with Pie Android 9. I still have the cast problem on it but my controller now pairs. So, it took some monkeying around but I solved those issues.
It seams like we have a couple good ROMs for this device which are close to working perfectly and then the people building them stop. I know Lineage had official builds of 14.1 and 15.1. Somewhere there has to be on o hei builds floated around that is stable. Then, the proper patches can be applied to it. I have tried looking into building images myself but that is over my head. I have a PC I just built that is more than fast enough. I have a Ryzen 7 3600, 32gb of RAM, and more than enough SSD space. I wish someone could connect to my PC and remotely build images, or they could remotely help setup my PC and show me how to do it. Then, I would keep the forum updated with new builds. If I could figure it out I would help out building images for other devices as well.
