Unable to flash LineageOS on to Shield TV Pro 500GB - Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried flashing lineage os 17.1 on my Shield TV Pro 500GB today.
It flashes the OS but it will not boot into it.
I was flashing LOS 17.1 on top of Shield experience 9.0.1
I just reverted back to the OEM 8.2.3 dev image with root but I would really like to run Lineage on this thing.
Any ideas?

Can't upgrade from Lineageos 15.1 to Lineageos 16 (microg)

Hey,
there are already three different Lineageos (microg) 16 builds. But after I am flashing one of them, my Xiaomi Mi A1 boots into complete darkness/ black screen. Any idea what are doing wrong?
Workflow:
boot twrp recovery.img
flash lineage 16 (microg) e.g. lineage-16.0-20190409-microG-tissot.zip
reboot system
-> black screen
When I reflash 15.1 (lineage-15.1-20190313-microG-tissot.zip) everything works as expected! Any idea?
Flash latest stock Pie and then 16 LOS.
Maybe the problem is the recovery. What recovery do you use?

Hello and good day! I'm planning to follow a similar upgrade path on a HTC M10 running Android 8.0 via Lineageos 15.1 install. Lineageos 15.1 installs with no errors in TWRP, device is rebooted, Lineageos logo crosses screen for several minutes, and device returns to TWRP recovery instead of starting phone. After the second re-install, I installed the OEM boot.img and same outcome. Any suggests how to proceed next?

You should post this in the HTC M10 section or the LOS 15.1 thread for your phone. The solution works here may not work for your phone.
Gudiance appreicated.
Guidance is appreciated and will do. Thanks. Danny.

Go back to FireOS from Lineage, HD8 8th Gen (2018)

The lineage builds I've been using have had a few issues with WiFi and audio, and I hear good things about the new FireOS release based on Pie. Also with the advent of the Fire Toolbox I can get what I need out of FireOS.
What's my best option here? I have TWRP and if possible I'd like to keep it that way. Is there a way to get the latest FireOS flashed via TWRP, and then disable OTA? Or do I have to fully flash a recovery image to go back to FireOS?

Stuck With Shield TV Got Lineage But No Gapps Work?

Hi I have firstly upgraded the official firmware on a Shield Android TV 2015 (Foster) to version 11 Android TV OS then i decided I hate it so I flashed twrp worrked fine got Lineage 17.1 Android 10 on it now but I add Gapps from open Gapps versions ARM x64 nano or pico it doesn't matter which I add if you add any Gapps then it won't boot into the Lineage OS it just sits in a seemingly semi-brick state only ever providing the boot animation circles only it never passes although the system is working to pickup adb otherwise it would be a full brick.
Can someone help literally point out what I need to do to get it working with play store please.
My assumption is it requires a custom Gapps not regular Gapps as is the case with some os's sometimes but i cannot find links to try for anything other than stock Gapps.
Have you installed GApps before initial boot ?

Installing LineageOS for microg on SHIELD TV PRO 2019

I want to install this: https://download.lineage.microg.org/mdarcy/ , but TWRP is telling me I need bootloader version 32.00.2019.50-t210-79558a05. Where can I get that version?
If it is of some kind of importance, I currently have bootloader version 32.00.2019.50-t210-69ebfcbe installed.
I figured it out, I had to download "NVIDIA SHIELD ANDROID TV 2019 Pro Recovery OS Image" version "8.2.3" from https://developer.nvidia.com/gameworksdownload and extract it. Then you can do fastboot flash staging blob and you will have bootloader version 32.00.2019.50-t210-79558a05.
If you can't download stuff from there, turn off your Adblock, I had the same problem.
I tried this version before, It not work properly for me. I hope to release Android 11 with microG.

Magisk on a Shield TV 2015 Pro aka foster_e_hdd ShieldTV with Experience 9.1.1

I am a little surprised that I can only find instructions for the ShieldTV models that are without HDD. I still own a ShieldTV codename foster_e_hdd.
How can I get on this magisk and what do I have to look out for?
