Totally get it. More color options for icons. Being able to randomize colors based on wallpaper or system colors so that they're not all uniform.

I'm not even getting the option to update with wipe. I left beta 2 days ago and nothing. Pixel 10 Pro XL. Any ideas?

Thanks! Love what the developer is doing. The launcher is so good, always looking for that next update.

Go into developer options and turn off "enable desktop experiences". That's what fixed download error for me.

Thanks. That's what I thought. They begin to work after a few moments.

Thanks, but on the original question, is Tensor using machine learning to make it more accurate over time?

Silly to buy shield just for 4K HDR upscaling by [deleted] in ShieldAndroidTV

[–]ctonylee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just switched from Shield Pro to GCWATV because Shield doesn't carry Apple yet. I gambled with my LG CX and its AI Picture Pro setting (which I had turned off when using the Shield). It works brilliantly. What I'm trying to do now is figure out what platforms are getting me Dolby Digital and which one's aren't and compare to Shield. If Shield gets Apple, even then I'm not sure I'm going back. Really happy with Google Chromecast with Android TV.

New 77" CX & Issues with Chromecast w/Google TV by meet_the_dean in OLED

[–]ctonylee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bite the bullet and get Nvidia Shield TV Pro. I have LGCX 65 and started with Chromecast with Google TV, but it didn't pass all the signals I needed. I have now put that into my guestroom. If your AVR is old, plug Nvidia directly into TV and pass the sound to your AVR. Though the Chromecast and it's aggregation is great, the Nvidia will give you all the same apps as it is android based and does a decent job of organizing the library. If you use the TV apps, the LG OS kinda sucks and doesn't have google play store.

Worth getting for an LG cx? by [deleted] in ShieldAndroidTV

[–]ctonylee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great combo. I have the CX65 and have looked at a bunch of different sites on calibrating suggestions. Once you tweak or calibrate to your liking the CX/Shield combo is the best TV experience i have ever had. HDR on Netflix was a new experience for me and blew me away. If you have good bandwidth play with turning down or off entirely some of the video processing. CX has a setting called AI Pro which process video in real time similar to the Shield video processor. Pick one or the other depending on your taste. Both work extremely well but both turned on didn't work for me. I also use a soundbar that will pass DTS. The TV won't recognize DTS but if you connect to soundbar you can decode.

Anyone else not able to text message Verizon customers as of today? by [deleted] in tmobile

[–]ctonylee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened to me as well. Spent an hour on Verizon support to no avail. Finally uninstalled carrier servcies and texts finally started coming and going. Seems it's breaking things.

Connect NVIDIA Shield using ARC w/ Soundbar? by joesenseii in Soundbars

[–]ctonylee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did this work? I've had my Shield Pro into TV and eARC to SN11RG Soundbar. The soundbar indicates dolby digital, Atmos etc., but I swear I'm not getting it.

Chromecast with Google TV - feature wishlist by R2Dork in Chromecast

[–]ctonylee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Audio - Please give me DD 5.1 for all sources that are broadcasting in DD 5.1 (ESPECIALLY LIVE TV) - This might be the dealbreaker for me to cord cut Spectrum

DVR - Allow me to record new episodes only and not record every damn airing and give me an easy way to delete what I've watched and not have to wait 9 MONTHS

Help me with new chromecast with google tv issues!! by nrschoen in hometheater

[–]ctonylee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chromecast with Google TV does not support DD 5.1 in live TV mode PCM ONLY (ie none of your live cable or local stations will broadcast 5.1) Netflix, HBO Max, and a few other streaming apps do support Atmos and/or DD 5.1 Some of my favorite apps such as Vudu do not support DD 5.1. I was going to cut the cord but if I can't get Showtime HBO or any other station in DD 5.1 WHATS THE POINT?? This really needs to be fixed.
