Same here on my S10, have just reported it via the Samsung members app. Obviously, Chrome not functioning in DeX is a major issue and they need to get it fixed pronto. I suggest anyone else having the same issue also reports it to Samsung via the Samsung members app.

If I remember rightly, once you see the green android and red exclamation mark it's just a matter of persistently trying combinations of volume up, down and power to access recovery. I don't think I ever identified which was the right combination, just takes a little persistence.

Bluetooth mouse worked a treat by the way.

Ah, I have one of those so I'll give it a try. Device is Galaxy S6 running completely stock marshmallow. In one of the modes the game pad seems to make the left thumb stick act as a mouse but maybe there's a little glitch.

I believe that this unit is more commonly known under the Shinecon brand but I could be wrong. I have one too and find the lack of button to be a right royal PITA. I've tried to use it with my ipega game pad but the mapping doesn't seem right and it doesn't behave as expected, do you have a good...

I seemed to remember reading that either Shield Services or Tegra Services was running amok and contributing to the lag in lollipop. I currently have these two services set to use only two cores at 50% Max and the tablet seems much snappier.

I haven't found a ROM yet and I've been looking for ages. Lollipop performance on this device is somewhat erratic; sometimes it's brilliant and others it's useless. Never had to reboot a device so often in my life.

Wifey has one and it's complete garbage. You have to start music and running app in a particular order, it takes forever to get a GPS fix and it invariably either loses GPS or freezes/crashes mid run. Sony don't even seem to have bothered to make a GPS tracking app, so users had to wait for the...

Chrome became useless for me after 4-5 days. Usual method to install AOSP browser doesn't seem to work in lollipop either so giving Opera a try. Chrome was just too slow to use.

I'm quite impressed, first time I've tried Touchwiz in months. Seems quite polished, almost embraces material design. It would be nice to get the onscreen buttons with faster access to Google Now and the app switcher; Samsung's idea of a long press is a loooooooooooooooooooooooooong press.

It's the first ROM to tempt me back to touchwiz in a long time. Everything seems spot on except Knox isn't working. Clicking on it causes it to try and create a Knox session then the app closes with a pop-up saying "Failed to create Knox mode. Please try again". I guess I could always install...

Good question. At some point I will need to replace my trusty Motoactv and at the moment the only thing to fit the bill is the Sony Smartwatch 3. The 360 looks so much nicer.

I haven't researched it fully myself but i hear the the Droid Razr XT910 shares a lot of hardware with the Xoom2/XYBoard. If someone was to attempt a port i imagine that would be the place to start.

Has anyone got anywhere adapting an XT910 ROM for Xoom 2?

Actually Verizon devices went as far as Jellybean and those ROMs can be flashed on any Xoom2 using the guides on xda. Having done it though i wouldn't really recommend it. Without regular use of a speed booster (which shouldn't be necessary on android) it becomes very slow and laggy very quickly.
