[Q] Issues after update 5.0.1 - Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Im experiencing some issues with the display of some apps since the last update, first one is with floathing stickies https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B5liuSQRuRTSc3lJQlZTb3NNR28/edit?usp=docslist_api and the other is with Go SMS pro while I'm scrolling in the themes section, i couldn't get a screenshot of this but i guess everyone has that app and can check by theirselves. Its there anyone else having these issues and what other apps have you encounter affected?

Lollipop is ART, ART has inconsistencies... could just be a feature now. :/
I've seen similar floating issues when I used Picsay Pro recently... guessing some of the older top-tier apps haven't braced for the sudden change.

I have some rendering issues in some apps, like Puffin browser, now and then half of the screen is filled of flickering lines.
Battery life is dissapointing, not that it was very impressive before anyway.
Two times it has just charged a few percent overnight, it usually charges to 100 %.

All I can recommend is to keep sending ANR reports and always contact the devs with app issues. Make sure you say you're on 5.0.1.

Disable HW overlay in dev options and rendering is fine again, only problem is this introduces stuttering in animations/scrolling... (Went back to 4.4.2 myself because of all the bugs in lollipop)

I haven't had any rendering issues or floating icons, but what I'm having a serious problem with is bluetooth, before on kk i was able to hook up a ps3 controller via usb otg, and then after about a minute i could unplug the ps3 controller and it would sync with bt, now it works with otg but as soon as i unplug it the shield tells me that a ps3 controller is trying to pair with it but it asks me for a 4 digit pass code.
I did some research and found out that allot of people have this issue, actually everyone, A's no one can sync a ps3 control, i would use six axis, but i can't for two reasons, first reason is, i play a few games by Gamevil, and they have xignicod3 for security, so it detects six axis as a ts the game down, and second: if i don't hook up the controller natively, the gamepad mapper won't work, when i plug the controller in, it detects it as if it was an nVidia controller minus the nvidia button.
So i did some testing after, i tried to restore back to kk but now once bt detects the controller, i get a crash with an error saying "unfortunate bluetooth pair tool has stopped" every time without fail....wtf?
Any one have any suggestions?

You can try calibrating your battery, and also with the last update you can set the number of cores and the frecuency of them.

Ive gone threw 2 power cycles and my battery is showing 0% the whole time i use it. I installed Better Bat Stats and it shows the proper battery amount...I thought the OS would need to calibrate but it just cant figure it out. Still getting around 4-5 hours with movies and games and music.....I have experienced the floating banners keep flickering from different sizes very rapidly. Oh, and the stock charger cant keep up.
Has anyone noticed in the middle of doing something you hear a sharp electrical kinda CODE (dzzwirp) sounding?? Only happened a couple times, but kinda scary. Its diffidently channeled to threw the speakers when it made that noise.
Just stock not rooted/wifi

Could you direct us to where those options are available? In 5.0.1 not rooted, I cant seam to locate any of those options. My battery (OS display) allways shows completely dead and the OS still wont show any amount that was put back in to it. I have ran the tablet down about 5 cycles and still wont calibrate. Ive placed an email to Nividia for help as well. If/when I get a response ill post up......thanks for any help.

I suggest you to install the full nvidia recovery image, i did that, i installed the 1.2 RoW(mine is US so bye bye ATT useless app and OTA delays), doing that solved battery issues, looks like updating via zip causes issues even after doing a factory reset. You can do that then an OTA update and i dont have anything to complain about 5.0.1 except the rendering issues, so im in Kitkat again. DON´T USE A CALIBRATING/REPAIRING BATTERY APPS SEVERAL TIMES OR IT WOULD DAMAGE YOUR BATTERY PERMANENTLY LOWERING YOUR BATTERY CAPACITY AND/OR MAKING IT SELFDISCHARGE(EVEN TURNED OFF) AND EVENTUALLY IT WILL BECOME COMPLETY UNUSABLE it sadly happended to my previous tab .
The rendering issues are a common Lollipop 5.0.1 problem not Nvidia. So we have to wait next OTA.

You will find the the cores and frec adjustments, in
Configuration----SHIELD Energy Managment----Processor Mode---- My energy mode----Customize My energy mode (not sure if those are the names in english my tab is in spanish hehe).
Changing the number of cores just gave me 10 min more of clash of clans gaming using 20% of the charge so i got around 1:10 of gaming. I recommed you to do the Nvidia recovery install.

Did you install nvidia recovery image via adb? restoring a backup file from kitkat in lollipop seems to make system inconsistences, i did it and saw my tablet reboot twice with Android L splash screens letter and then the kitkat old android letters.

I get these weird graphical glitches on some apps, autodesk sketchbook pro, (which i've let the devs know) but also through google play games. Anytime it shows that I logged into a game or get an achievment the google games comes down from the top of the screen like its supposed to, but it has all these artifacts with it too, goes away after about a second and then all is golden, glad to see that it wasn't just my tablet though. I was not really up to the idea of RMA'ing my device since it's finally all "set up" and personalized like I like.
I've also tried to screenshot, and record it with an app, but it doesn't capture the errors in the video, it looks normal.

I get exactly the same graphically anomalies! I'm impressed with this release as it performs much better in speed and smoothness for me and I can use Facebook on it again. But the graphic anomalies really annoy me. I can also no longer return to kitkat as when I flash the system.IMG it fails with "couldn't allocate enough space on device" and fails to flash. I had to install the EU-LTE recovery from @twistedumbrellas kernel post to then flash the full nvidia lollipop .zip and lucky booted and checked storage etc. Back up and running and storage reporting everything is fine. But graphical anomalies are still present. Damn it. Lol. Well at least they are working faster than one plus one with their alpha release after three month's. Lol..

Yeah, I haven't tried the HW overlay thing in dev options but I may give that a go when I'm using my autodesk sketchbook and then just switch it back when I'm gaming. Other than those anomolies, (an some weird high pitched squelch thing that happens every once in a while) I love lollipop on this thing. I feel like chrome is in NO WAY optimized for this though, it's terribly slow, but I use it on my phone where it flies and I like being able to sync tabs and open pages/history etc.

Hi,
My post will probably spam, but I have the same graphics issues It started after upgrade to A5. I also tried to send issue message to developers, but seems the service is broken on my device. It fails to send message.

Whoah, I get the same exact graphical glitching too! Glad to know I'm not alone, I just bought the Shield and almost RMA'd this thing thinking I had a defective unit (what between this bug and chrome crashing my tablet).
Anyhow, I had found a temporary fix that seems to make those artifacts go away. If you enable the developer options (if you don't know, go settings, tap about tablet, tab build number 7 times, unlocks developer options in settings menu) and enable "Force GPU rendering", it seems to make all the weirdness go away. It might kill your battery slightly faster, but you can always disable it again after you're done using the app. Kind of a PITA, but seems to work. Hope that helps.
Anyhow, I'm new to the Shield tablet scene, basically updated to lollipop right from the get go. So those graphical glitches didn't exist in kitkat? Was chrome always so slow? Man I hope this tablet gets it together soon, it will be awesome once it realizes its full potential.

Chrome is still a problem, wasn't such an issue with KitKat but I'm thinking it's an issue between the Nvidia kernel and lollipop. Once we have another update I'm hoping it'll be better compatibility.

I am very pleased with the phone too.
It feels very comfortable; the size is just right and is very lightweight and stylish.
Camera is very good, and the overall performance is excellent.
There are almost only pros for the phone: It is possible to use 3G with any of the sim cards; there is only one partition to install apps; it accepts 2 sim cards plus an sd card; It has 2 GB of RAM...
There is one concern, and that is the battery. I have only used it as a secondary phone for a few days, and I don't really know yet if the battery can last an entire day using it as my primary phone...
Another thing that bothers me is that the ring, notification and system volume are merged together, and you can't set different levels for each one...

I am using it in Portugal, and I have only made a satellite lock test. It works just fine, even indoors.
Got the iNew V7 about two weeks ago and it seems to be A-OK.
I use the phone as a mini-tablet. Bought, tracked and delivered (to USA) for $150.
Will be adding TWRP to do full backups and then will root it using the iroot instructions I found. Will report my findings on these efforts.
Must root phone to run xposed framework to run Bubbleupnp app in order to cast audio.
Put 32gig micro SD card in V7 but it does not recognize the SD card. Still working that issue. Geekbuying claimed max sd card size of 32gig.
Will report results and any phone foilbles.
Love the FM radio.
I purchased from POMP Mall Site, iNew V7 phone battery needs to be recharged every day.
I had this Phone for a week, and I am pleased . It has a nice battery life! Yesterday was an intense day of use, with data and wifi always active, GPS when needed , watsapp, facebook, 9gag . For more than 3 hours of screen time. Arrived at Night with 24 % battery still left .
And Really nice camera!

I concur, I've had this phone for about a month now and it's every bit fantastic. The word that best describes it - polished!
Everything is smooth, no bloatware, no hitches, no hiccups, no Chinese apps, no shoddy behaviour.
It's light, fast, superb screen and resolution, loads of RAM, fast CPU. The camera is excellent and GPS locks fast with great strength!
The battery? I use my phone for lots of calls and the occasional WIFI during the day. It lasts me 10 FULL days! I'd rate the battery 9.9/10!
I am very glad I paid slightly more for a higher-end device. It is worth every penny, and then some.
I think I'll be buying iNew from now on.
Hi there, got this handset delivered yesterday, and was extatic - everything about it was great, performance, battery, screen, looks... But today I'm thinking about selling it, because I encountered a problem that is a total deal breaker: touch screen. Today I discovered, that the phone is unusable due to constant "phantom" touches, that are happening when I'm typing text. Some happen on an adjacent buttons, but some on a buttons far from those I'm typing. Like, when I switch to the numeric keyboard and typing a lot of numbers, the phone just switches back to letters and so on. I entered a developers options and switched on options for showing touches and traces on screen, and was able to see, that sometimes when I make a brief tap on the screen, the trace of that tap is showing, that I made a line, and not a single dot. I tried to install several calibration programs, but none of them helped.
Did someone encountered the same problems? If so, how you managed to fix them?

Hi, using the phone well over a month - I never experienced such problems at all. In fact, I think the touch screen is quite responsive and fluid, no "phantom" touches can be seen. I believe this could be a defect with your specific unit.

I removed rom,but in 1~3 back again

suddenly, my Mate 9 restarts randomly

my phone restarts by it self randomly, 3 times so far, 2 today,
did it happen to any of you guys?
Even worse: yesterday, completely spontaneous factory reset when I was not using the phone. I sent a message to Huawei about this. L29, B126.
That's not good at all! I hope for the rest of us yours is an incident by itself...
May be an individual case mine is ok, thank GOD
Sent from my MHA-L29 using Tapatalk
i looked into battery info before i charge the phone, the phone lost about 7-9% in that restart, there's a gap in the battery diagram, and the phone kept getting empty a little quicker !!!
Hallo all,
I have the same kind of problem.
Automatic restart of the Mate 9. frequention about one time a week. After restart some settings were changed.
The setting for standard location for memory was SD card.
After restart each time it was set to Internal memory. It seems to be a smal structural problem.
I reported this to Huawei NL. Regards.
Not sure if that is the cause of your problems, but haven't seen it mentioned here: there's a scheduled restart of the phone that can be programmed in the settings (Smart Assistance/Scheduled Power on and off). Maybe you guys enabled it by mistake?

Mine did the same too a few days back, was on B126.
It was rebooting every 5min. Got pissed off and exchanged it for a new unit.
It's my 3rd day on this one, no reboots so far, but still too soon.
Crossing fingers here ...

I only noticed the issue on B126. I was on B110 for nearly 2 weeks and didnt encounter the issue, but then again it wasnt my daily driver so couldve happened without me noticing...
I doubt its a rogue app as I have the same apps on all my phones, except for "built-in" ones from different vendors. And I tend to remove/disable most bloat.
B126 felt like a step up from B110, but it's not yet polished, its more like a day one firmware that needs an update or two to work well. Some of us are still facing issues with touch response due to palm rejection, or delayed push notifications.
Crossing fingers for quick and solid updates here, I really like the phone and would love it with less bugs.

If you have the reboot and touch issue that means a hardware problem.
I was on b110 and now b126 without any of the problems above.
But true the software need lot of improvement to be more polished.

I'm actually on my 3rd mate 9 so far, and only the second had the reboot issue.
But screen missing some touch was there on all 3. I'm. Pretty sure it's touch rejection issue as when I enable tap indication in Dev settings it shows all taps.

You are jumping to conclusions without any justification for them.
The touch screen issue seems to be broad, there's a lot of complaints about that. I've you're not too picky you may not notice it but I am so I have noticed some responsiveness issues every now and than. I think that is a software issue where the area the finger touches the screen is perhaps not interpreted correctly (touch diameter too small).
And sudden reboots are well documented sw issues which are often fixed with a software release.
Sure, it could be hardware but it very well can be sw as well.

An easy way for me is small objects in the top right corner , like when I try to tap the settings icon. It's either that the recognition area is too small or rejected. I noticed the issue is more prominent in built in software. Don't have this issue in apps from Google ...

I just tried it and no problem, I can't remember how to use the screen recorder so i can upload for you my testing.
Also no problems here. I've tapped the icon countless times and it always registered. Also no random reboots to report. MHA-L29 running B126.

Tablet doesn't recognize all of my touches

Hi, i've been using the NVIDIA SHIELD K1 since january, and one thing that has always bothered me is that it doesn't recognize my fingers when i tap repeatedly, i play these rhythm games that requiere two or more fingers on screen, and losing because of the tablet not recognizing my fingers is painful, i tried rebooting and a number of stuff i thought could work, but there's no results, it even stops recognizing while i'm holding my finger (moving an app's location, for example).
This wasn't a thing in my previous one, it responded instantly with no stutters regardless of how many fingers i had on the screen, so i don't know what to do.
It's rooted with TWRP, i haven't used any ROM's as i don't feel like i requiere any, settings are always on max performance and i kill all apps that i leave and won't use so everything runs smoother, i also disconnect from internet when playing but it doesn't seem to do anything, can anybody help me with this?

[HELP] Partially Blank Screen but otherwise active device OR Sleep of Death

Hello everybody,
I've got a problem with a Oneplus One.
First a brief history of the device. I got it on ebay with a shattered display about 1 1/2 years ago and replaced the display. Since then my girlfriend managed to shatter the display 3 times more. So I'm quite used to replace the display on this device.
Since the last display replacement (the 4th) the device developed a partial Screen-of-Death problematic.
Sometimes the display just stays blank, while the backlight is clearly working (you can see the blueish light in dark environments). Also the device reacts to touch and button inputs, like e.g. double-tap-power to start camera. Or double-tap-screen to wake up (you can feel the vibration or display input sounds).
I "just" have to wait about 10-20 seconds, try again and the display turns on without any problems. In other cases I have to try this a couple of times to wake the screen.
A hard reset is not necessary, the device will wake up sooner or later. In this aspect it differs from all SoD descriptions I found online!
An other strange thing is, after the screen replacement the device forgot all wifi networks. The wpa_supplicant.conf was empty. Strangely enough all other apps were OK, I didn't noticed any irregular acting applications.
As the device was sill running on CM13 I decided to give it a fresh nougat installation and assumed the SoD symptomatic would vanish.
Now after flashing back and forth different factory images and custom-rom's the SoD is still there and renders the device almost unusable.
I tried the latest CM13 snapshot and sultans CM13, which I have been using on another OPO without problems for a long time.
I also tried to install different original factory images.
cm-13.1.2-ZNH2KAS3P0-bacon-signed-fastboot_64GB.zip
and also another one I got long time ago from Oneplus to fix an annoying Wifi-Reboot-Problem. It contained additional image files like persist.img and reserve4.img.
I tried to turn on and off the setting for the proximity sensor that could interfere with the activation of the screen.
I tried different radio firmware's, as I could remember that there had been some problems in the past with incompatible firmwares, android versions and the proximity sensor.
I enabled and disabled all off-screen-gestures, although they are always working regardless if the display stays blank or not.
Unfortunately I've got no luck.
Literally every single android version I tried suffered from SoD. The only problem free thing is TWRP. Running the latest 3.1.1-0 I never got a blank/black screen on powering up the display.
So now I'm out of ideas and would be happy to hear any additional guesses to fix this problem.
I was also wondering if anybody knows more about the SoD. I couldn't find any information's regarding the causes of this problem. Is it hardware related or software?
thanks!
p.s. another strange thing I noticed now on the latest Slim7 rom (20170526). If I try to take a screenshot with power+vol-down, the screenshot animation happens. But a status bar notification from Android-System tells me, there is not enough free space to save the screenshot. But there is at least 40GB of free space.
I'm not sure if this is related to my problem or just to Slim7. And I'm also a little tired to reflash the device just to test this issue...
Maybe there is a problem with permissions or the flash memory?
p.p.s here a logcat. I couldn't find anything helpful.. https://pastebin.com/UWfwc1VX
Hello,
can anybody recommend an alternative kernel (for SLIM 7 rom), that allows me to increase the minimum CPU frequency.
I remember by doing that on a HP touchpad, I could avoid SoD.
Thanks!

Only this kernel is fully compatible with AOSP-based roms like Slim7.

Mi Note 10 Lite screen flickering at max brightness or when prompt for fingerprint

A few days ago I have encountered the screen flickering. It looks similar to what is being shown on this youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yvywd5e2G6I&ab_channel=zamoneyOmar
The fading and white flickering only occur on the main screen and right side of the raindrop notch. After a few trying out and testing, i realized this only occur when the screen is adjusted to around 90% brightness or when the phone prompt for fingerprint verification (ie. lockscreen as fingerprint prompting will max the brightness on the sensor portion of the screen).
During normal usage the screen seems normal with no fading or flickering. But if I turn on the Anti-flickering mode (DC dimming), the screen will be in constant flickering or fading no matter if the screen is on max brightness. Therefore, does any mi note 10/note 10 lite user have this issue?
Mi Note 10 Lite MIUI Global 12.0.3(QFNMIXM) Stable
Hello, i have the same issue, but i want to know if it's a software issue or hardware issue. I just got the phone last month and it's on MIUI 12.0.3 stable

That implies me that flickering caused by the refresh rate, not the dimming.
Has anyone found a solution to this issue? I'm experiencing it as well
I am also facing the similar type of issue on my new Note 10 pro max.
guys, i went back to the youtube thread and this guy had a temporary fixed.

GUYS I GOT A FIX FOR THIS ISSUE. I was facing this issue for almost 2 months and I almost sold my Mi Note 10. But today I tried something that worked for me. There's an app called "LCD BURN IN WIPER" (The icon is white with a smartphone inside). First thing to know: The screen of my Mi Note 10 was flickering just like in this video only when I had to use my fingerprint or when the brightness was in high level. There was two stripes, one in each side of the notch (one was white and the other was black) and this was driving me crazy because the left side was getting black, then it was backing to normal after a few minutes of usage. So I started to noticed that when the screen was on for a long period of time, things was getting back to "normal" There's when the app enters in the equation. I thought that if I used a program to force the colors on the screen, maybe it would come back to normal. So what I did was: #1- I downloaded this app #2- I put the brightness at 100% and it was flickering like crazy but I could still see the "start button" to run the app #3- Let it run 30 minutes yesterday and the screen stopped flickering for a few seconds then it went back to flicker... So I tried today for 2hr in a roll and for my surprised MY MI NOTE 10 IS BACK TO NORMAL! NO FLICKERING, NO PROBLEM WITH FINGERPRINT, NO STRIPES ON THE NOTCH, NO BLACK LEFT SIDE... Hope this app can help you the way it did to my Mi Note 10.
- i tried it and the upper right screen on my phone was fixed. i'll continue using it using low light and with finger print. i'll send some updates after a few weeks. also my phone is out of warranty, anyone knows how much it cost to replace the screen if thats the problem?
Any fix? Ive been reading. Says it has to do with update or screen refresh rate.. Help please. the top right area is not showing. Then now screen is flickering. Help pleaseeeee
same problem as in video for me too. I found many complaints on this issue in other forums as well.
it seems like a software issue as everyone say it's after some update.
tried tips that worked for some with no success -
deactivate blue light, dc dimming/anti flicker, fingerprint lock, auto brightness, always on display - these help with the flashing and flickering, but the notch area is still messed up and battery is draining very fast.
will try the tips from the youtube comment.
if anyone finds a fix, please share, thanks!
EDIT - the youtube fix did not help.
The problem i encounter that bug me for so many months has been resolve randomly. Not very sure what is the cause of the fix but it was definitely not OS update as i did not have any OS update when the fix occurred. It could be one of the system app updated and solve the issue.
Has anyone figured about this issue. What could be the cause. I also ran into this problem. Right side of notch was blacout and I havent even dropped the phone.
I figure it is probably the app Theme in System Apps. When I first encounter (Nov 2020) it my phone had an update for Theme. I tired uninstalled the update, delete its cache but nothing solve the issue and i assume it was mere coincidence that Theme just happened to update when the issue arise.
Around 1 month ago this issue suddenly just disappeared and when I look back at the update history on System App, Theme has received a new update. Theme has multiple update in between the duration and this update a month ago kind of just fix the issue.
My phone is Mi Note 10 Lite with Mi Global 12.5.1 Stable 12.5.1.0(RFNMIXM) and the Theme update that solve the issue is 1.6.5.5-global updated on 8 Jun 2021. Recently the issue appear once only after 1.6.6.2-global on 8 July 2021 but has yet to appear again.
Hope that helps.

I also think it is due to the mi theme app. I remembered that the theme app was updated the morning and the evening time when I tried to play the game I noticed the notch was blacked out. I hope mine also gets fixed with the updates.
It was also happening on my Mi note 10. I remember July 10 (could be earlier) I updated Themes app and Clock. That Night I notice there's a delay screen on my notifications bar. This August when I updated my Themes app, it's got worsen. I notice flickering white bright light when auto brightness at max level as well as when using fingerprint censor.
Anyone has a fix now?
i have been facing this issue on and off for months. today this reappeared and is worse than ever. any solutions guys?

I think there is no official solution for this. For now i use the device with the fingerprint disabled and screen flickering on.

thank you. unfortunately if i have antiflicker on, all hell lets loose. screens flickers like crazy. i too have fingerprint disabled for unlocking phone. still when i press the power button, screens flickers for a while, then turns black. and no always on display which is vital for me. i have it enabled but after all the flickering it doesnt work.
i have the problem for some time. and it always fixes itself all of a sudden. as if there is some silent uupdate that addresses it. problem usually lasts for a day or two. no more. but this is the worse iteration of the problem so far... i am desperate

after enabling anti flicker it may take some time. if it didnt worked you can enable disbale the anti flicker for some loop.
also you mentioned it fixes itself. does the notch screen work when you said it gets fixed itself?

enabling or disabling the antiflicker, fixes nothing. once this was fixed (in the past, because i am still facing the problem for a day and a half now, the longer i had it, shoudl be fixed....) the part of teh screen where the camera notch was, works.
but now, nothing.... this is outragous. and knowing it is a software problem, makesme so angry....
long post ahead.
i thought i was the only one experiencing this issue and im using mi note 10.
got the phone dec 2019, my issue started last year and same as the others i think it was somehow related to themes. i dont really recall if it was the same day with an update to just themes or the system UI itself but i do remember it happened after an update.
my phone crashed while i was playing a game and after i restarted the issue with the notch appeared. the screen also started flickering but it was still going back to normal. after a few days the issue with the flickering worsened just like the one in the video and took me some time to recognize it was the brightness level.
ive done the suggested fixes even resetting my phone back to default but it aint fixing itself so i just learned to live with my screen brightness almost all the way down. its just really difficult to view what's on the screen when outside.
however, no new updates on the phone but my screen is really getting worse and im afraid that i will not be able to use it in a few days time. just a day or two ago without changing anything to my usual setting, the screen showed lines like the ones you'd see on a broken TV. a few restart set it back to normal but earlier today here's how it looks. i tried again to clear some items and cache and restart but i still get the same screen. only tonight that i was able to get it back to my normal one but it goes back and forth to this screen after a few minutes.
im thinking of doing another reset but i dont really think it will fix this.

Same problem here, anyone tryed install the original stock rom before de updates? or Custom roms. Regards.
I turned on anti flicker mode and it actually fixed it. Just had to wait a few minutes after turning it on and the notch is visible, and no more flickering. But I still turn off always on display, fingerprint and keep the brightness down just in case it.
