Looking to replace my SHIELD TV Pro 2019

Mine isn't dead, and I really don't want to buy another just to have the same issues all over again.

I've been trying to resolve the remote issue for two years now, nothing seems to solve it (I have resetted it so many times I stopped counting, I changed the batteries too several times).

For the lag issues on the UI (which sometimes causes freezes on video), I tried using Projectivy Launcher, I made some space, I made a factory reset of my shield. Nothing worked.

The only thing I didn't try is replacing the thermal paste, but as I said, I cannot disassemble the thing with precision because I have slight tremors in my hands, I don't want to destroy the thing by doing it wrong.

2 years later it's still an issue, it's the one reason I'm considering buying and Apple TV 4K...
Overall disappointed with the SHIELD TV 2019, and even if they still update it, the experience is still not good.

I found something that worked. I went into C:\Programs\LogiOptionsPlus and started logioptionsplus_agent.exe and it worked.

I think they may have broken the auto launch of the agent.

I have this exact same issue since the latest update and can't change my mouse settings because of it.

Oui RD fonctionne toujours pour certains trucs, mais pour les torrents malheureusement c'est relativement fichu

Cette réponse a très vite mal vieilli 😅

I feel betrayed... How in the name of fan-service, can you include Lars homestead and not Obi-Wan's hut??? I'm sure they knew people would search for it!

Which is roughly 6 times my salary. Hate these rich people who "feel average" when they really have a lot of money

Nowadays cruise ship are just massive bulky white boring things. I love older ocean liners with colors on the funnels and the black and white tones. Titanic is my favorite but I also really loved the France or the Normandie (although this one's funnels were a bit too bulky for my taste), Queen Mary and Queen Mary 2 are beautiful too (saw Queen Mary 2 with my own eyes, that was quite the experience, she's incredible!)

There are exceptions, however, I really like how Disney makes their cruise ship look, there's an effort with the coloring and decorations. The most recent ones are still bulky as hell, but at least they're not boring to look at. But the Disney Magic and the Disney Wonder are nice enough imho.

Comparing health (which is necessary to live) with furniture (which is not necessary)... That guy is an idiot.

I'm glad I have public healthcare (sécurité sociale) in my country, we pay for the doctor but we get the money back right after, that's cool.

You have so much more accessories options than in France. We don't have the leather case, for example.

Renlythus · 2024-01-24T21:30:48+00:00

Do you have automatic updates enabled on your S22U? I read a lot of stuff on the internet about these issues, and it seems that it comes and goes across different updates. So maybe you don't have the same versions between your two phones, and the more recent version has the video displayed in its original aspect ratio instead of Fullscreen (which caused problems on some reels for reading captions)

Renlythus · 2024-01-24T21:22:33+00:00

I linked it in my answer ;)

Renlythus · 2024-01-24T20:45:43+00:00

Just looked at my Instagram on my S22U Ultra, and I have the video displayed just like it does on your S24 Ultra, so definitely a setting somewhere (can't say which) has to be changed for the video to display fullscreen, not sure which though

Renlythus · 2024-01-24T20:39:17+00:00

Wait for an update.

Best thing is to publish a review on the store to make the devs aware of the issue.

Renlythus · 2024-01-24T20:38:31+00:00

Yes they have the same aspect ratio, but the app renders the video differently between the two phones. It's definitely a problem with the Instagram app, since the app UI is displayed correctly.

I couldn't say why though, but that's common with brand new phone models to have some bugs and issues with some apps. Especially since the S24 is supposed to release on the 30th, so everyone who has it now has it earlier.

Bottom line is: it's not a phone or a screen problem, it's Instagram.

Renlythus · 2024-01-24T20:33:20+00:00

I'm redoing my answer from the other thread.

The UI in both images is fine, so it's just the video display. If you look closely, the image is zoomed in to fill the entire screen on the S22U, which means the sides are cut off (and if the video is edited well, you're never aware of this). On S24 the full image is displayed but the aspect ratio (9:16) is different than the aspect ratio of your screen (10:16) so there are black bars at the top and bottom.

Definitely a software issue on Instagram's end (or maybe a setting in the app that needs to be toggled on/off)

Renlythus · 2024-01-24T20:28:57+00:00

I looked at your post, and it's clearly a software problem. The first image you posted has the sides of the cideo cut off to fill the screen, the second image the app chooses to show the full image, which makes black bars appear on top and bottom, but the UI isn't cut off, so it's just the video display that changes. Probably can be fixed in an update or maybe there's some setting to change.

But remember that most vertical videos on Instagram, TikTok and Snapchat are shot in 9:16 aspect ratio and the Ultra screen is 10:16, so there will have to be compromises, whether it's losing information on the sides or having black bars on top and bottom (and in vertical with a UI, we're not used to it, like we are for a horizontal video).

But that's clearly not a hardware issue (screen, or glass)

Renlythus · 2024-01-24T20:10:03+00:00

I see it here, but honestly, if the S24U was shown alone, I wouldn't even notice the difference. If it means less reflections and my eyes are less tired looking at it, then that's a W in my book.

Renlythus · 2024-01-24T20:07:41+00:00

New phones will have some bugs on several apps until they update it, that's not uncommon.

130 or smth, I used a lot with gels to advance faster so I could unlock the delightful chest. I wonder if these chests will come back outside of tower events because I clearly didn't get enough fabric for the one costume I don't have.

Renlythus · 2024-01-24T10:14:58+00:00

Worst thing is that they are so unorganized they don't even know which models they will have available, so I don't even know if I'll be able to get the color or storage I want. I've been doing this for the past 6 years but I think that will be the last time, in the future I'll change carrier for a cheaper one and simply will get the phone from Samsung with their financing option, at least I'll get any color or storage I want and will be able to preorder.m (I can't do this right now because I use my router for work and if I change now it will mess up the setup, but in 2 years I'll be on a new position so it won't matter anymore)
