[ROM][Full Android Marshmallow for Shield TV][v.1.5]

[mkarakus77]

Thank you for quick reply. When I was at marshmallow everything was working perfect. I wanted test nougat so I upgraded (5.1 Nvidia upgrade.) . But I missed xposed frameworks. I can't downgrade, then In first page I flashed as you described. Everything OK except YouTube. I goggled green screen issue, it's described as hardware acceleration issue. But I don't know how to fix it. Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks in advance...

you can only find another youtube app or check if old versions work.
updates are made for a reason.

I've had this ROM on my device since I purchased it early last year. In January of this year I noticed that my data usage had skyrocketed from about 80gb/mo to 580gb/month. So I installed YAMON to monitor where the high data usage was coming from. I installed it the beginning of this month (3/4/17 to be exact) and so far this device has downloaded over 30gb of data all by itself! I DID NOT request it download anything AND most of this was done while I was asleep! I have 30 devices on my network and NONE of them have exceeded 1gb of data usage so far this month! So, I'm asking you if you have any idea why this device is doing this and if you can assist me in stopping it?

Please Help!

check if you have a virus. i never had this problem.

That was the 1st thing I checked, no virus & I have AV on all my devices. If I upgrade this to Nougat, will that wipe the device? I'm considering doing that anyway? Or should I just factory reset the Marshmallow ROM and then update to Nougat?

Where do I get the nVidia 3.3 Stock Firmware?

get the 3.3 firmware from Nvidia website and install

update automatically to 5.1

when you have android tv 5.1 you can install full Android Nougat

Thanks for your help,

About your second question NO, the bootloader of 2017 model is different than the 2015 and only the 2015 model got Marshmallow.
If it were a 2015 model the one you have then the install you mention would be the correct way to downgrade to Marshmallow safely.

Thank you Veronica, I guess this means there's no way to run Full Android Marshmallow on the 2017 model..

Theoretically speaking, would it be possible to patch the 2015 Marshmallow bootloader to make it work on the 2017 version? I imagine this patch could be based upon the differences between the 2015 model Nougat bootloader and the 2017 model Nougat bootloader. I have no idea if this would work, just curious : )

EDIT: On the Nvidia forums I read that people bricked their 2015 Shield by downgrading from stock Nougat to stock Marshmallow. I guess I'm not gonna risk bricking my Shield 2017 by experimenting
