    Post Pixel 3 XL Can't find Valid Operating System

    Not sure if anyone still needs help with this, but I just ran into this issue on my Pixel 4 XL and I held down the volume down button and power button to reboot into fastboot. From there you can connect to a PC and flash images or unlock/lock bootloader, etc. From there I was able to use the...

    I've spent more time trying to get this to work than I care to admit. No matter what I try or how many times I try it out just won't work for me. My car unit is the Sony XAV-AX5000. I've tried different masters - Pixel 2XL and now Pixel 4XL. I've tried different slaves - Nexus 7 2013, Moto X...

    Were there any special things you had to do outside of the original instructions to make this work on your Nexus 7? I'm using a Nexus 7 with a Pixel 2 XL and I just can't get this to work for some reason. I have gone through each step several times and gotten messages that AA connection was...

    I like SambaDroid much better than Samba Filesharing. I've been using it for a few years with great success.

    Post Finaly Nvidia Shield TV Update 3.0

    Ugh the Fire TV interface is awful. I bought the original Fire TV pretty much at launch and have hated the interface ever since. I rooted and set Kodi as my launcher so I never have to look at that nasty UI. Leanback Launcher is far and away the best TV interface in existence.

    Fire TV is IMO the best streaming device on the market. You could make an argument for Roku, but I like the Fire TV because it can run Kodi. The only pros the NP has over the Fire TV are mpeg2 hardware deciding, Leanback Launcher, and built in Google cast. You can install an app on the FTV that...

    I used to side load but now I don't. I'm not going to use an air mouse or keyboard to control my TV. Usually if there isn't an official app like HBO Go, you can still cast. I would much rather do this than hack my way through some side loaded app. Sent from my XT1096 using Tapatalk
