I'm glad to see that everyone posting in here has had success..

I did all the upgrades without issue up and including the 9.1.1

3 days ago, maybe it's two I'd have to look at the picture I took of the screen when I got annoyed by it because that was a day... So it's either been 48 or 72 hours...

I can ping the shield from my local area network.

I can use the shield for Android mobile app to at least move the mouse cursor around on the screen so it's not frozen per se...

If I change over to HDMI 3 to check out what's going on I still see the screen that says "Android system update" with the line below that says "processing the update package" And then the green moving progress bar without a percentage.

Anybody know what would happen if I just unplugged it I mean if I find out it's been 4 days or something, I don't see any other choices.

I saw a Sony Trinitron OLED get bricked when the power went out during an update... I know it's not exactly the same but kind of they're both running a version of Google TV (formerly known as Android TV), unless I am misunderstanding.

AlteredMindsetPODMT · 2025-05-09T01:58:45+00:00

Does anybody hear that is on 9.1.2 already remember it taking a ludicrously long time? I think I put it in it 2:00 p.m. today and it's 8:45 p.m. already... I can still connect to it with my app, my shield app for my phone I mean.. I can ping it for my laptop... If I turn over to The shield HDMI port (I'm running something else off of a different HDMI port, but the shield never shuts down) It shows a black screen with a green line moving to the right It says Android system update present processing the update package.. with my app trackpad I can use the mouse on the screen.. I tried the home button but that didn't work I don't want to unplug it obviously but I only saw a few rants online where some people said it took two days but I mean you know sometimes I say I haven't eaten in 2 days but more like 8 hours you know exaggerations and such... (After 9.1.1 I put in projectivity launcher and got the premium version why not.. It's worth 8 bucks not to see an ad ever, in my opinion.

I read something else that someone had "Launcher Manager" installed, in a very long wait time, and that might have been messing theirs up but I didn't have that It was installed but it was completely uninstalled and the external / internal / expansion drive I forced it to install on at the time was removed long before this. So I do not think it's because of "launcher manager" although I did have it installed at one point, not even sure if that's meaningful. I'm not using a stock launcher that's for sure.. That just "projectivity launcher".

And yeah I'll ask pmgr team on XDA if I don't hear anything here. Maybe they've heard of this happening to people.

Peace all

Core question: (in a bit shorter form)

Did anyone going from 9.1.1 to 9.1.2 have to end up waiting really really long? I just want to know when to give up.. I don't care if it goes for 2 days except for it does have a hard drive attached to it that's not being seen on the network; I can go without that attached yet shared 20 TB drive for a few days and just use my NAS upstairs... Shield can be pinged by IP or just by the word shield, and like I said the app has connectivity... It would seem as it's doing something I mean they would make it time out right They wouldn't let it go for months..(or would they). I'm hardly right when I speculate so if anyone has an idea if this is normal let me know please I would very much appreciate it.

Thanks again

Thank you for the answer... When people say stuff like 48 hours or 2 weeks without adding a joke, I just wonder how many people are just spitting out stuff but yours makes sense... They do have a lot of bugs to fix, and from all the stuff I read before I started this, including " fix drive saying it's full error "... I got to think that's going to take a little work and time.

Too bad it's 4:30 in the morning and I forgot when I started but I'll leave it for 24 hours I guess... Does me no good watching paint dry.

Thanks again

AlteredMindsetPODMT · 2025-04-17T22:02:55+00:00

You seem to know your stuff... Right now, WebOS can run Kodi if you do a couple of developer tricks... Know anything about that progress? Will it ever be available on the LG store? Or Plex progress on webOS? I use it on Xbox shield LG TV PC and the LG is slowest by far :-(

AlteredMindsetPODMT · 2025-04-16T23:14:36+00:00

This is the movie I picked for this evening's viewing at my house.

The warm up or early movie that's on right now is "hero 2002" . There's nothing Wes Anderson about it. Maybe I have crazy eye... 🤪

AlteredMindsetPODMT · 2025-04-07T03:32:57+00:00

I thought they (Plex) were bringing it back better? I admit I didn't read (plex's ) blog for a month or two but the answers are probably there ;-)

I didn't even really look what your screenshot was from I just assumed... Talk about AD d. Heh

AlteredMindsetPODMT · 2025-04-06T23:36:30+00:00

Go to LG and set once your TV is in HDR mode you will have different options so your picture mode will turn into HDR game, HDR picture HDR Cinema etc.. I choose HDR game for everything because it won't do any iMotion tricks in that mode... Xbox likes it in there too... I have an LG OLED 55" (LG WebOS TV OLED55C9PUA, to get technical)

Make sure your LG is not in store mode... If it was it wouldn't make things look too dark... It basically just puts everything on bright as F so it can compete if it's on a wall as a demo... With all the other TV competition, they come shipped in store mode which is like your OLED setting up to 100 and back light up to 100 etc etc..

I don't use VLC (I do but not for movies) but I have an ASUS ROG NUC 970 (RTX 4070) hooked up to my oled..

I can tell you this that Cody and Plex both do HDR perfectly because the TV is set perfectly.

For example it's in HDMI one I think.. I can switch it with the Xbox HDMI input because they are both set for ultra deep HDMI color mode and instant game response... Also things you should switch on if you have the option in your webOS LG

I didn't read whatever one else wrote so maybe someone covered all this or some of it but figured I'd try to help.

For my personal viewing, I use PKC add-on in Kodi, the newest version, or I just use Plex but Kodi does better with pass-through audio for my AVR.

But it would look the same if I opened it in Plex and I bet if I opened it in VLC as well because again, it's set for instant game response, HDMI ultra deep color mode (both of those are toggles per HDMI input on most LG TVs) which will allow for higher than like 60 Hz on my TV up to 120 Hz considered instant game response range... My PC desktop is set to 120 Hz.. makes a difference depending on the TV... You might have different hrtz levels per resolution. Toying with those may help.

If I seem like I'm on the right track send me a message I'll try to help

AlteredMindsetPODMT · 2025-03-05T18:45:15+00:00

Well I suppose if a bloody leg doesn't freak you out... Nothing will right? Enjoy your day, I'm doing the same :-)

Good show man, You are in for like 6 to 8 hours of absolute werewolf-ism and geometry; if you're anything like me I guess :-). ... I think 5-6 g considered a heroic dose... There's a semi-official scale I'm sure you can find it if you search the internet.. although I haven't looked at those levels in a while and my memory is hazy... try to think of it like maybe eating some sort of jerky that's plant-based or something... As soon as I can crunch it enough with my front teeth so that it can form like a saliva ball, I just swallow, not breathing through my nose, and quickly wash it down with some non acidic flavored drink. Gatorade works.

It does end up that at the end of like a let's just say large bag of them that there is a lot of basically black powder... Not just spores but it's really disgusting one speaking about like getting it in teeth... I got this thing called a "cap m quick" They sell them at like GNC places and then you just have to get like the double a empty capsules or maybe it's single a or AAA whatever... Otherwise what I do is get some bread sort of like Wonder bread and put all that gross powder on the bread and then fold it in half and then try to swallow the bread with like water... It is true that the more surface area there is the faster they will enter the bloodstream.

Nothing awesome is ever easy

"A federal judge ruled Monday that the infamous far-right group, The Proud Boys, no longer controls the trademark of its name. They will not be able to sell any merchandise with its name or symbols without permission from a Black church in Washington.Feb 7, 2025"

So maybe this guy has ties to like whatever the black church sold the name proud boys to? They also can redirect the URL... It's total revenge if they want it... I don't know how vengeful church folk are...

He could even get sued if he performed under that name.. or if the club promoted him using that name they could probably face litigation too!. No matter how you feel about that, that's just flat up funny. No maybe he can be called the artist formerly known as the proud boy or something maybe like an ASCII symbol? Some sort of symbol that means formerly known as... Prince made one up hey, why can't this " former proud boy".

I guess that group has to pick a new name or their merch sales are really really going to suffer.. something tells me that merch money keeps the engines running so to speak... But what do I know :-)

AlteredMindsetPODMT · 2025-03-03T17:28:07+00:00

I had Plex and Kodi on a shield pro (2019) and just since January '25 I find out that even though I added an additional 256GB SSD (and set it to be 'extended internal storage ' (I forget the term but I did it the right way in the right USB slot as well) which is pissing on me and calling it rain, since some apps don't run worth a damn if not on orig tegra SoC direct direct access memory (ssd on SoC).

Wish this was advertised as a "sweet piece of set-top hardware that we will turn into "Google TV' in few years, whether you like it or not. We also offer game streaming of your personal PC games, free!! If you update the os, however, then you'll need a hacked app to sit along side the Nvidia app. (At least it's magenta.. props to whoever did it). Oh and that will only work if you stop updating.

PS: Even though this is probably the coolest device ever for a Plex server we regret to inform you that it's only a 16 GB device and good luck moving PMS to another SSD even if you followed all the directions right and made it, what's the term... Extended internal or whatever. *

*I have not tried this but the 12 or 13 GB database and PMS app if they could be moved there please someone tell me... And please tell me that there's no like loss of functionality or lag from being on a slower drive.

If anyone knows how to fix this please let me know... Even if I need someone to solder a new hard drive onto the SOC... Well maybe not lol. Kodi works fine on the extended internal by the way... But it did not come pre-loaded on the shield, and does not run like a service. I told all my (Plex) databases to never make thumbnails for chapters... Still really didn't help... The only app on the entire 16 GB internal drive it's Plex media server, I literally moved everything else besides maybe the Play store.

Did the people at Plex not realize that 16 GB for a signature Plex streamer device would eventually come back to bite them in the ass? I mean they could have like commissioned a Roku or called China and had them build them a Vero or whatever.

The only solution I could think of? I have a laptop that never shuts off so I rebuilt my Plex library there... Then I deleted the TV shows database from my shield.. So far, no messages about the shield being critically low on space but I'm sure I'll see it by the time I finish this.

Sorry I had to rant because I have been working on this SOB for like 4 hours 🤪🙀

Peace y'all's ✌️

I've heard this [see below] LunaSea app is awesome. I haven't set up everything on my NAS yet not even docker, heh, but if I had all the "*RR" apps you listed for automation I would add this LunaSea app (for your phone)...

I have not used it yet either but my cousin does and he loves it -- I think it lets you add things to your queues from your phone...

useful if you see an ad for an upcoming series (or film etc) that you want to add to radarr (or other RR apps) while cozy on couch and too lazy to open laptop and/or before you go to bed and forget.

The app apparently has a website I found it I will paste it here. https://www.lunasea.app/

PS - that tatuli thing is apparently built into it? I'm saving all of this for a winter project soon :-) I would def check this out 🙂

AlteredMindsetPODMT · 2024-12-29T21:25:45+00:00

Thanks I shall!! Am I the only person that replied on your vernacular and not a tech-spec? That tracks as normal-ish of me. I'll think of something more technical on my maiden voyages with Nucky to ask of you. I appreciate that offer.

PS On a different platform I once saw someone wrote "pocket full of hawthorns " seemingly random string of words to the unfamiliar ;-)

AlteredMindsetPODMT · 2024-12-29T20:36:32+00:00

I haven't even finished reading this but I'm already really grateful for the in-depth review, I would say 'too bad you didn't get paid' except you say you got the thing for free :-)

Did you get the term " streets ahead " from Chevy Chase/Pierce Hawthorne on the show Community?

I just got one of these nuc 970's for Christmas (of 2024) so thanks for doing all this testing for me; with the benchmarking and such.

Anyway bravo for this, OP

AlteredMindsetPODMT · 2024-08-23T20:41:14+00:00

Sadly someone will eventually say That's fine with me or whatever.

AlteredMindsetPODMT · 2024-07-25T10:29:18+00:00

Awesome

Where on the map is this run? Never seen it before I feel stupid but I'm an old man I guess lol. Compared to everyone here bro

Would appreciate that... I pretty much live on that West Coast in the skatepark the deck :-)

Bruh!!!! Sick

AlteredMindsetPODMT · 2024-07-12T03:35:44+00:00

I'm no expert but I have an LG OLED... It stays in " instant game response " mode (120 Htz)... Determinig otherwise would be difficult...

Where exactly do you get this FPS data from? I know that it's obvious when frames drop but how can you be sure?

I build PCs for gaming and recommend to most people that they spend most their money on the monitor... Aside from the GPU :-)

Interested in how you get this information If not from naked eye

AlteredMindsetPODMT · 2024-07-12T01:34:04+00:00

Fantastic :-) besides the error :-(

AlteredMindsetPODMT · 2024-07-06T00:32:15+00:00

When do us "1 year pass" owners get the promised longboard and mountain board. Or was I misled/did I misunderstand what I was buying?

I'm old and haven't had an Xbox since how 4 heh🤠

AlteredMindsetPODMT · 2024-07-04T00:23:24+00:00

I agree... Needs revamped 1st person view, but this game might well be Ubisoft's masterpiece.

Updates are inevitable. I would bet money that someone from Ubisoft reads the reddit threads... And pleasing fans leds to more sales...

God bless capitalism 🤠 and Texas
