I don't think anything can be used in the current official build because of the bootloop issue.

I had the same issue, and it just randomly started happening without even updating. I tried updating to no avail. I ended up putting the stock firmware back on.

From what I recall, the problem is that the Shield Portable support was removed from the Marshmallow version of the Geforce app. Steel01, I ran into another issue. The HDHomeRun TV app has no sound when used on the Shield Portable with this LineageOS build. It does have sound with the stock...

It does, you can find several threads referencing it: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2436482 https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/597626/shield-portable/gps-acquisition-seems-slower-after-59-update-/ https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/572488/gps-software/

Another thing I've noticed is that there doesn't seem to be any support for the GPS in this LineageOS build? I tried a few GPS apps and they said there is no GPS present in the device (with location set to device only and location access granted). Thanks!

Thank you for doing all this work! As you saw based on the other threads, I am using LineageOS now. I haven't fully tested everything yet, but so far things are mostly working well.

Great, thanks! I didn't enable encryption, and it was the latest stock rom. I'm not really sure what happened. It just seemed to be having trouble mounting and wiping a few partitions on the stock system rom, so I flashed the 3.0.0.0 TWRP from the multirom. I seem to recall that having issues...

I didn't use encryption, just a pin lock. I do have my google account on there - gmail, hangouts, etc. If it ever gets lost, I'd rather that information not be easily accessible. Regarding SuperSU - OK thanks! I worked around the issues I had anyway. I posted about TWRP in the TWRP thread, thanks!

I had the same problem, I had to use 3.0.0.0 from the multirom. I think 3.0.2.0 worked too. Also, I just installed the latest nightly (4/9) yesterday (boy was that an exercise), I'm having a few issues: 1. So I set up a pin on my Shield... the lockscreen doesn't show 0 or the icon to accept...

Hmm I tried TWRP 3.1 from the TWRP website and the touch interface doesn't work. Also, 3.0.2 seems to have problems mounting and wiping data?

Thanks, I'll look into it, but it's just a kitchen TV machine. All she really uses it for is CrunchyRoll and YouTube (hence why a cheap chinese system would be perfect).

Thanks for the informative response! Sounds like LineageOS is the way to go. If I decide I'm going to keep my portable I'll probably flash LineageOS (I'm debating selling it as I bought a GPD Win, but it's found a use as an Android TV system for my wife... so I'm debating keeping it or selling...

Regarding this ROM, Does console mode work? Can a keyboard be used to wake the device? Thanks!

I see there are several custom marshmallow ROMs for the Nvidia Shield Portable. I'm thinking of upgrading as I'm sick of always having to move my apps around and not being able to update them. Adoptable storage solves that issue. The ones I've found are: CM...
