I am starting this thread for open discussion of the nightly builds for Fugu(Nexus Player) by the AICP Team. I am in no way affiliated with AICP, but I have used their ROMs on several devices and they offer a huge feature set. Their builds for the Nexus Player are based on Android TV as far as I can tell. My experience testing has not been terribly smooth but i see a lot of potential. I've reached out to the team in hopes of getting more information about a maintainer and who to provide logs to. I have only been successful in booting the ROM using dhackers PureNexus leanback gapps package. Many of AICP's benefits and features are not related to the AndroidTV Launcher interface, so try it out, report back your results.
If anybody knows of a NON leanback gapps package (android x86_64) for MM 6.0.1, please share its location as I think a non leanback package will resolve all of the hiccups I've encountered while testing the nightlies.
As of 3/10 build, I get freezes of the launcher, sometimes the AndroidTV settings will not populate images when navigating(back out and reselect a few times and it fixes), backdrop.apk FC's and will not run(can replace with another daydream app), and mic search does not work.
Anything else not working? Lets share with each other.

Hopefully we can show AICP that there is enough interest for this and they will join us in discussion or perhaps open a thread in Nexus Player Android Development.

My apologies, I was on mobile and did not see your banner and realize
My first question: who is maintaining builds for the Fugu? I have tested the last 3 nightlies and it doesn't appear that anything is ever mentioned in the changelog that includes Fugu.
Second, is it possible to build a version of AICP based on AOSP rather than AndroidTV? while the android tv interface is nice, you can use the Android TV launcher installed on top of a regular base build of android. but when you build from source AndroidTV base, I think the rom is very unstable. I think an aosp tablet version would do the community a great favor.
Third.... can you direct me towards a suggested gapps package to flash with the Fugu nightlies? the only one I can find that advertises it is leanback for the fugu is a package by dhacker. I am hoping someone knows of a gapps-non.leanback-6.0.1 compatible with x86_64 hardware.
So
This just happened:

Thank You to AICP team
3.27.15 nightly is available
Fugu: build with Tablet UI
Who has tried it? What were your results? Did you use dhacker's leanback gapps? Or something else? Viper/Atmos?

Getting ready to download and try it out today,I will report back later on tonight. I can't find any Gapps to try out other than the leanback ones. Been looking everywhere for a X86_64 Gapps package to no avail.:crying:

So far I am experiencing the same behavior while using both leanback and opengapps packages. This was similar to my previous flashes prior to the switch to tablet ui....
I get immediate and constant FC's from playstore and play services. If left alone long enough, I suspect that with internet connectivity... It updates in the background and FC's stop after 15-30 minutes.
I have not seen a status bar and or navbar.... So a little confused about the tablet ui?
When attempting to flash with opengapps.... Would not get through initial setup... Stuck at checking for updates. I am going to flash again with no gapps in hopes of seeing status/nav bars
Same here with open Gapps,going to try leanback next.
Leanback gapps will flash and boot fine. Initial setup requires manual.
The AndroidTV settings interface remains buggy. Getting stuck on home screen of leanback launcher or while in settings. In settings the screen goes just to background and doesn't load the selected settings. Can hear ui sounds when navigating, but have to back out and reenter multiple times before anything loads
Tablet ui does not appear to be activated or present
I'm about to throw my Nexus Player in the trash and buy the new Chromecast lol. Even on the stock ROM my cast is hit or miss,still a pretty good gaming device. Has anyone on this thread tried VLC player on the Nexus Player,thinking about putting my movies on a flashdrive and just playing the file on my NP?
VLC or MX player work great. You could just leave your media where it is on your network, and set up a Plex server. And I haven't tried to cast something on AICP yet, ROM wasn't stable enough that I got that far in testing.
The ROM is not ready for prime time.
But on stock, have never had an issue trying to cast and it not work

Having to send your local media to a cloud server and then back to your nexus player isn't as efficient or reliable as keeping the stream within your local network. Video stream has to go through multiple servers before it reaches your "play-to" device.
You can even set up a samba share on your PC and enable that directory in Kodi. Is an option under settings/services/samba in Kodi.
I use Kodi everyday on my Nexus Player, so it is easier for me to set up that way where it can pull the directory from my main PC in the house. However, Plex server essentially does the same thing, just its own interface.
I've never used the VideoStream extension more than a few minutes to test so I can't give ya any input in it not working well for ya.
All that said, none of this is related to the AICP rom. If you are trying to do all of this from AICP ROM you are bound to run into issues because the ROM is not ready for primetime use

A quick note on Nightlies: NIGHTLIES ARE DEVELOPMENT BUILDS. They are automatically generated every now and then, and represent the compilation of the latest commits to the code repository. While every effort is made ensure that the commits that are accepted are stable and do not have a negative impact to the overall performance and function of the builds it is not possible to test every aspect of a commits impact to the overall repo prior to it’s inclusion in a given build. As a result it is entirely possible that instabilities may be introduced as a result of a given days commits. That is the nature of the nightly system, and the risk that is taken using the latest code changes to the project.
EOS is an AOSP based rom. It is developed and maintained by Team EOS and is the culmination of our own in house development efforts.
Team EOS Nightly builds: http://goo-inside.me/devs/teameos/roms/eos3/nightlies/tf101/
G-Apps Package
Because this is an AOSP based rom Google Apps are not included in the base rom. To install Google Apps please flash the following package after installing the base rom:
Temporary Gapps package gapps

Installation Notes:
These builds are designed to be installed from your favorite recovery.
Perform a full wipe (read Factory Reset) prior to installing this over ANY ICS or JB based rom.
BUGS!

Yup, Camera and HW video decoding aren't working yet, neither is GPS.
Google Now sorta works but when you opt into Google Cards it breaksit. Probably be fixed as mentioned already when GPS is.
Ok i Tried the rom and Plan on sticking with it....its Useable
Google Voice Search Works with out any issues however google Now FCs
The sound can be worked around with Volume Plus Configs
Chrome Works but has some issues
Graphic Performance is increased [More Fps In Dead Trigger with Tegra 3 Fx] almost no lag
Software Decoding works so videos can still be watched till the next nightly fix
Overall UI Performance and consistancy is Phenomenal ! [Just Don't Change the launcher ]
USB Joysticks Work on Games
USB NTFS Drives are Unmountable [PLEASE FIX THIS!!!]
There can be a 100 things more to talk about but to sum it up, the rom is great, just wait for some fixes and updates and thiss rom will be on top of your list!

I've left the app open for well over 10 minutes but still no audio. other streaming audio apps like TuneIn work fine for me on this tablet, they start outputting audio immediately.
I wish I could post on the Omni main thread so @Schischu knows of the issue but I don't have access since I don't meet the requirements. I hate to roll back to EOS but if i can't listen to the app on this device then I just may have to.

Anyway to play streams with mx player or chromecast?
I tried the 14.2 and it keeps failing on final install I'll try to redownload the apk and see if its just a bad down load
Works decently so far. Don't have a tv that I can stream it to right now so I can't say anything about that. Easy to use. Like it.
Is there a theme that works for handsets since its hard typing
Absolutely love this!
I do have one irritating problem though...
I can't get movie info from any channels with this version.
It works on Windows, no problem.
I've been searching the internet for a solution but keep getting hit by suggestions regarding local files. Those actually work already. Any help appreciated!

I am installing this on galaxy tab running android 5.0.2 lollipop (non-root). I am unable to make the pathsubstitution of thumbnail works. I think most probably because of the external sdcard restriction. Other apps will ask for permission to access sdcard by TVMC does not. Any plan to make TVMC works with external card?

Change your ROM to something more current - LineageOS 16.1 for example - as developers are now required by Google to target current versions of Android with their updates. Otherwise search APKMirror for old versions of Peel.

Not liking it is fine, but speed is more an issue of ancient hardware, not software. That said, any AOSP ROM will run circles around a Touchwiz one. That isn't opinion, but fact.

The OpenGapps wiki describes the differences between the various packages. I personally use stock, but I also know how to set up a .gapps-config file to prevent apps I don't use from being installed. The minimum size package I recommend is micro, as it includes all the basic elements found in the other packages.

Can't help you there as none of the Galaxy S4 devices have built-in FM radio. You'll need to use a streaming radio solution like IHeart or TuneIn for that.

I recently installed a Custom Rom and the truth is that it is giving me more problems than solutions.
I would like to know which is the best custom Rom to install it and that I can use the tablet 100%.
What do you recommend?
Preferably android marshmallow or higher
Which custom rom did you install?
Hi
At the moment i testing out following Roms:
Stock 5.4 (debloated by myself)
This is the latest Rom from Nvidia which has all of the oem apps and features this Tablet offers. But on the downside it has slowdowns and freezes. In my case i debloated the Rom by myself where i deleted apps and the systemapps like twitch,squid,fallout and ota or feedback for example. With this the device is barely useable with some slowdowns and freezes but way better than before.
LineageOS 14.1 by Saint2k
This is a stable,fast and secure Rom. Secure because it get almost every month a security update like on a new device and is the perfect Rom if you use it as a normal Tablet and play Games from the Playstore. On the downside Nvidia Games doesnt work and the Old Controller is just useable with the USB Cable + OTG Adapter. Also the Console Mode is buggy and some say it has a bad Batterydrain at idle what i cant comfirm yet.
AOSPExtended 5.8
This Rom is based on Android 8.1 with working Hardware Acceleration. But it has the same issues with Nvidia Games and the Controller and Consolemode. This is the more stable Version of the AOSPExtended Roms.
AOSPExtended 6.7
This Rom is based on Android 9 and the Nvidia Games App works but only when the App Signature is deaktivated with LuckyPatcher. For the GAPPS you also should use the OpenGapps Nano Pack instead of the older MindtheGapp. This is the less stable Version i also had 1-2 Restarts and 3DMarks had some Graphicissues. But apart from this it is a interesting ROM where i hope the Developer still is working on
One thing to the DRM Issues:
Every Rom also the Stock One is affected from this. Its because our Devices has Disconnected from the Widevine Service run by Google without a warning or a reason.
That means no Copyright Protected Medias like from Netflix are able to use atm.
I hope this was helpful for you and dont hesitate to ask if you have more questions.
i am also curious about this! looking for the best ROM for my k1

If you flash Magisks it has a few different modules that fix DRM so Netflix and other streaming apps work correctly. I just learned about them the other day when I was checking out some options in Magisks Manager.
As far as the best custom ROM goes I am going to have to go with ASOP 6.8. The reason being is it is the only ROM that will let my PS4 controller connect wirelessly. Also, it is the only ROM that screen casting is working for me on. However, it does not work when I use cast by swiping down on the screen and selecting it. I have to download a 3rd party app to get it to work. I found one the other day that worked perfect for allowing me to watch Cinema apk movies on my TV. I ended up factory resetting my tablet though and now I cannot remember what app it was.

I ended up factory resetting my tablet though and now I cannot remember what app it was.

Cool that means you be able to watch Netflix, Amazon, ... In Full HD ?
Because i also tried out the liboemcrypto disabler on my rootet oem tablet and i was able to start at least the netflix app but it wasn't going above 540p i would say because the Widevine CDM Securitylevel is now L3 before it was L1 with only Current HDCP Level stated as "Disconnected"
But i try out the second modul with DRM in name when the Tablet is done with charging

I tried the 5.8 aex 5.8 and it worked very well, until playing a google play game I realized that the tablet was locked and I closed the apps. Apart from that the screen mirroring does not work, it freezes the image.
Now I have installed the 14.1 , it works very well, the same game freezes, but it takes a lot longer. And this standby spends little battery, but on consumes that gives taste. And with this screen mirroring does not work with a smart tv, like stock.

Hi
At the moment i testing out following Roms:
Stock 5.4 (debloated by myself)
This is the latest Rom from Nvidia which has all of the oem apps and features this Tablet offers. But on the downside it has slowdowns and freezes. In my case i debloated the Rom by myself where i deleted apps and the systemapps like twitch,squid,fallout and ota or feedback for example. With this the device is barely useable with some slowdowns and freezes but way better than before.
LineageOS 14.1 by Saint2k
This is a stable,fast and secure Rom. Secure because it get almost every month a security update like on a new device and is the perfect Rom if you use it as a normal Tablet and play Games from the Playstore. On the downside Nvidia Games doesnt work and the Old Controller is just useable with the USB Cable + OTG Adapter. Also the Console Mode is buggy and some say it has a bad Batterydrain at idle what i cant comfirm yet.
AOSPExtended 5.8
This Rom is based on Android 8.1 with working Hardware Acceleration. But it has the same issues with Nvidia Games and the Controller and Consolemode. This is the more stable Version of the AOSPExtended Roms.
AOSPExtended 6.7
This Rom is based on Android 9 and the Nvidia Games App works but only when the App Signature is deaktivated with LuckyPatcher. For the GAPPS you also should use the OpenGapps Nano Pack instead of the older MindtheGapp. This is the less stable Version i also had 1-2 Restarts and 3DMarks had some Graphicissues. But apart from this it is a interesting ROM where i hope the Developer still is working on
One thing to the DRM Issues:
Every Rom also the Stock One is affected from this. Its because our Devices has Disconnected from the Widevine Service run by Google without a warning or a reason.
That means no Copyright Protected Medias like from Netflix are able to use atm.
I hope this was helpful for you and dont hesitate to ask if you have more questions.

What I'm looking for in a rom for my tablet is: to be able to play google play games, something demanding (like when I buy it), also be able to use screen mirroring to watch videos and movies on smart tv. And if it's possible for the battery to last.

Hi
In your case i would give the Unofficial LineageOS4.1 from Saint2k a try. Its fast, reliable, and secure because of the almost monthly security updates. Also Games from the PlayStore shouldn't be a problem. I also have a mirroring option which gave me no issues so far.

I currently have the 14.1 that you tell me installed. But screen mirroring doesn't work for me.
And demanding games, it slows down a bit or even after playing for a while, it closes my game.

Ok i tried the screen mirroring again and you are right it also crashes for me when i start it direct with the button from the dropdown menu. When i use it to cast the youtube app it works fine for me and thats the only thing i use it for atm so thats the reason i didnt notice it.
About the demanding Games i play occasionaly COD Mobile with the Tablet. Its really slow at starting because most of the time the game does updates and loads a lot of annoying ads
It just needs a bit of patience but when you actually in the match itself it runs just fine and it doesnt crash a lot for me.

for example, he played clash royale and the application closed 2 times.
Then the other day playing the game of the 7 deadly sins, it closed after 5 minutes of playing.

I recently upgraded from a 2 year old 14.1, to the latest. I found on the androidfilehost for the-saint2k sometimes had the latest on the right side, under recent files. I checked now and its updated to the latest
https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=297059
I found the kernel from BitObession
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sh.../tweaked-kernel-nvidia-shield-tablet-t3069776
K12-002 works fine and fixed my battery drain during sleep
https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=282989
I dont use screen mirroring, but i do use HDMI out for use at school and that works fine. Nvidia console is still included in this builds, and I'm glad its standard.
Now I've noticed Kernel Aduitor is no longer available in the appstore, and is over 2 years old. Is there a better kernel auditor app for changing the governors? My tablet is a e-book reader currently, I could happily downclock it to get more out of the battery.
I hope you find your solution. I wouldnt expect too much more development for this (in before lineageos16.0 becomes the bees knees for this device).

Ok sounds for me the Games running out of memory and the ROM cant handle it. You could try to change the Low Memory Killer Settings. For this you need Root Access and with the Kernel Manager App from the PlayStore you can easily change those Settings it even have some Presets as shown on the Screenshots.
It also have Settings like KMS which reduce the Memory Usage too and you can set the Read Ahead Buffer Size.
I think it may need some tinkering with those settings to find the perfect ones.

I agree with Scavenger87, I've also tested Saint2k 14.1 & 15.1, AEX 5.8 & 6.7. By far the most usable is Saint2k 14.1 the second time I've loaded it up (so far).
AEX 5.8 has outstanding deep sleep battery life but the random reboots to the OS or TWRP in the middle of doing something eventually had me loading up Saint2k 14.1, which was stable but ate battery at idle despite running the BitOb K12-002 kernel.
So I tried Saint2k 15.1 but had a lot of problems launching apps and also RR, then wiped & flashed AEX 6.7 which seemed to have even more problems with app launching. Both were quite laggy compared to LOS14.1 and AEX5.8 when the apps finally started to run.
Today I reflashed Saint2k 14.1 with BitOb K12-002 kernel and so far the device feels like is should - clean and snappy. It just finished being fully charged so I'll get an idea of sleep battery consumption over the next few days.

I would like to make an installation as clean as possible of 14.1.
What do I have to clean when I reinstall the rom from twrp?
And if I have to do a separate installation to make it work better, when should I do it? Thank you
For a complete wipe down you should go to TWRP -> WIPE -> Advanced Wipe and Wipe Everything apart of the Micro SD card for obvious reasons
Then install the newest build of the 14.1 by The-Saint2k which you can found here : https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=8889791610682953905
The Filename says its from the 6 October 2020 which wasnt revealed by The-Saint2k in the Forum and i wasnt able to test it out myself but i never had any new Problems with his ROMs.
I dont get the second question what do you mean with seperate installation ?

Some zip file that improves performance, or the operation of the tablet or rom.
Ok i don't have any expirience with such improvement files but i guess as early as possible maybe like the gapps direct after the rom.
Which files are you mean ? And did you try to test the Games without those packs ?
I mean because you facing instability issues..

My installation was only of the rom and gapps.
But there are times that they recommend you install some more package from twrp to improve the functioning of the tablet. As for example the one from aex 5.8 there is one to use fast loading (or so I understood).
