Shield TV 2015 (NON-PRO) Nougat update version 5.02 is live.
OTA is downloaded to the usual folder: /data/data/com.nvidia.ota/app_download
Filename: PUBLIC02360be7475c0283d8953276654991ff.zip

I wonder if we can expect this One to land on Launch Day? Which would/should be on 20170130.
@sammarbella
I think you have posted a wrong zip, first the size is not 1.03 gb and secondly it looks like is v5.0 instead 5.0.2
Thanks! Can anyone please post the flash instruction for this update?

Nothing wrong was posted.
It's the 5.02 (full) OTA zip file for Shield TV 2015 16 gb version, the posted size is once downloaded.
Copied from my Shield TV 2015 yesterday after it was downloaded by the OS software update service.
There is no such "5.0" for Shield TV 2015 16 gb version, the first one is this one: 5.02.
Ok, I'll check again later today, I've flashed it and I have checked the version and it was 5.0... maybe I didn't see properly

Who said that i already upgraded to Nougat?
I uploaded to MEGA the OTA file i got yesterday in my Shield TV 2015 16 GB but i didn't upgraded yet.
I'm not in a hurry to upgrade until i'm completely sure that i can update the old TWRP i have right now with the new hacked one and flash OTA and flash supersu from it without problems.
As i posted in my previous post a Nvidia rep made a sticky post announcing on Nvidia Geforce forums that the Shield TV 2015 (FINALLY) got the Nougat upgrade and labelled it 5.02 OTA upgrade and that upgrade is the one i posted.
This 5.02 OTA upgrade is pressumed to have the same fixes already added to 5.01 and 5.02 OTA fixes released for Shield TV 2017 version and therefore the proper number should be 5.02 and not 5.00 even on Shield TV 2015 16 GB.
If some Nvidia dev forgot to name the 2015 OTA properly as 5.02 (or 5.0.2) i can't help...
Hopefully for the Shield TV 2015 owners the Shield TV 2017 owners were the betatesters (5.00 and 5.01) and early adopters can skip 2 OTA versions bugs and get directly the 5.02 OTA version.
Great, many thanks!
I converted the contents to system.img and vendor.img.

So it is android 7.
I woke up this afternoon and i see this nice advice when i tried to watch some TV:
I checked then the downloaded OTA zip file and it's exactly the same name and size that i already uploaded to MEGA:
1,115,129,317 bytes
It's funny different file managers report the exact same size in bytes: 1,115,129,317 bytes but one (X-plore) say it's 1.04 GB and the other (Directory Opus) 1.03 GB:

I don't care if the installer says "5.0.2" and the about say "5.0" after install for my Shield TV 2015 IF we are getting the 5.01 and 5.02 bugfixes already added to Shield TV 2017 third Nougat OS version.
true ... actually the update is running fine so far , no problems founded , cheers pal !
Does anyone know if it's possible to flash this via Fastboot? I tried to downgrade a 2015 Shield TV from 5.0 to 3.3 to get DRM working again for the HDHomeRun Green app, and it won't boot now. I can get to the Fastboot menu but that's it. Of course Nvidia hasn't posted the 5.0 image for the 2015 Shield yet so I'm kind of stuck right now.
Is the 2017 firmware the same firmware that is used on the 2015 model?
My 2015 model is prompting me to update to firmware 5.02. Although mine is rooted so I don't think I can just let it update. Maybe I will just download the one from the original post. I don't see the 5.02 version available to download from their website.

You don't need the 5.0.(2) OS image if you want to downgrade to 3.3, simply flash the available 3.3.0 OS image.
Maybe you'll need the stock recovery flashed before but it's also available:

This is NOT the same firmware as 2017.
Don't try to flash this OTA file on a 2017 model it'll brick it.

It won't boot after flashing the full 3.3 image set ... that's why I wanted to try 5.0 .... perhaps something changed going from "M" to "N" ... and its preventing the downgrade. See others with the issue here:

Hello,
Is it ok to update via the update function on the device, even the mediapad has unlocked bootloader and twrp?
Are there any precautions?

An OTA update always ships with a new firmware as well. I'm running, and ran, a lot of devices, using TWRP. This I'm really sure that it still is admit always has been: TWRP won't be able to flash the firmware part. Sometimes the ROM update part can be flashed using TWRP, but in general a stock recovery and stock untouched system image unneeded to update through the build in update functionality.

It's actually the first time in 5 years, that I end up with a device where there's no custom rom available.

Thanks this update:good:, finally its comming..
anyone found a downloadable image of the firmware yet? It's two weeks since official release now, but i can't find the image anywhere.
I've been looking like a crazy person also...
http://consumer.huawei.com/jp/support/downloads/index.htm
Japanese site.
http://m.huawei.com/enmobile/consumer/support/downloads/index.htm
English site.
Maybe if we find a Japanese 5.1.1 firmware, flash it and manually search for update it might work . Can't find one though... :/
Nothing found so far, I have looked for the image too but nothing...hope to find it, or we get the OTA update soon.
One guy in a german forum posted, that he got the update yesterday. So we are maybe not far away.

as he wrote that he had the korean b019 installed before, this sadly gives no clue about the release in other regions. :\
So the options are being patient and hope that the rollout will continue soon. Oooor....just put the korean version on my tab (which hopefully has english language sets anyways), fetch the update and up it to my GDrive. Oh the struggle....
Ah... So Korean or Japanese...
I live in Myanmar and the internet here is so crappy terrible.. Won't be able to download the big files anytime soon.. Would love to test it. :/
But think of how happy you would make us all by being able to upload it to gdrive
i won't find the time today, but i think i might play around a bit with those foreign Firmware installations tomorrow and see how far i get. I really love this piece of hardware, but 5.1.1 is just way outdated and i strongly hope that 6.0 also boosts the overall speed a bit.
Oooooh I hope that they have added multi users and the Screen Pinning feature, which is a Lollipop feature, that they for some reason also have removed.
hmm....i am bit shy to install the downloaded asian rom since i got the Wifi only version (m2-801w) of the tab and all b019-roms i can find are for the LTE version (801l). Anyone knows a download location for 801w b019?
[edit] nevermind, found it on needrom. Just downloading...
So here we are: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B765h62rQ81INUp0WHVvUFh5VzA
Steps i took, coming from a rooted 5.1.1 (version CUST<something>D003 i think)
- download 5.1.1 Asia release B019 from needrom (M2-801w-V100R001C233B019.zip)
- extract all img files with Huawei Extractor to a dedicated folder
- uninstall superSU
- fastboot to bootloader
- fastboot flash system, recovery and boot img from the extracted file
- reboot
- launch Update Tool
- be scared by some weird asian Update Notes
- install anyway
- success
after installation, the system language is still set to german (as it was on my tab before), so there seems to be no need to work through korean menus for setting the localization back.
You can surely skip those steps above and put the update.zip directly into your /dload folder or on the external sd card, but remember that you need a stock rom for it to work. If you tempered /system or had some custom recovery, you should fastboot flash the extracted img files directly.

I just came here to tell you that this post saved my life twice. If you flash this with TWRP you can get your system back aftera brick. for me the nvidia method does not work, so this is the only way i managed to fix my shield. TWRP will give you erors but just reboot and you are saved.
Any chance of getting a full 5.2 image since I can't update ?

I'm waiting to update my Shield TV 2015 16 GB to 5.2 , this little update is not like the full OTAs we got before (5.02/5.1).
I unlocked My Shield TV 16 GB bootloader and flashed TWRP and got root on 3.1 (MM) then it upgraded to 5.'2 and 5.1 without problem.
The 5.2 full OTA rooted image will be available soon in the Nvidia SHIELD Developer OS Images site:
https://developer.nvidia.com/shield-developer-os-images
I can wait a few days more...
Yeah, but i can't get that method to work, it tells me the data is too large when flashing system.img

Hi,
could you explain in more detail how you flashed the OTA through TWRP?
Thanks in advance!
Well, you just flash twrp and then the recovery image. You can find how to get twrp onto shield fromnvidia shield zone. It's a fan site with good tutorials.

Hmm curious, from your previous post I got the idea you had flashed the PUBLIC*.zip or some content from it inside twrp. so you are saying you took the recovery image file, flashed it as if a zip install file and it unblocked the shield, right? (just confirm if this is it and if this works you are getting a big thanks!)
Well, i flashed the link from the first post. It failed, but it fixed my shield. I wouldnt recommend doing this. It was my last ditch effort before i realized that the nvidia tutorial for recovery is wrong
Well the link submitted in this thread is for the non-pro so I can't really use it, but the method you use is interesting because it would be my only way out of the stuck nvidia logo.
My Shield Pro 2015 has been stuck in nvidia logo for a long time. I tried to throw at it all images from nvidia dev and non-dev up to 7.0.1 using the nvidia method as described in their webpage.
I get to recovery and flash successfully all files but the nvidia logo still stays. I can boot TWRP and even browse the disk contents, so I wanted to flash an OTA PUBLIC*.zip in TWRP like you did, but there seems to be none available.
I found a possible compatible file here but I have no idea if it is compatible with my shield pro and even how to flash it like you did.

No, I haven't. The shield is still waiting for some available time to try a hard drive replacement. The thread leading to this option is here:

Looks like your bootloader version is 3. New one is 4. But we have you can Odin files with v4 bootloader. So I will say yes you will get ADB or Odin files to go back or update.

Thank you, mate.. do you have patch all the way back from after the CPHA?
I just got this update OTA last night. This is what I was waiting for since I want to wait until the Nougat update to factory reset again. Seems good so far but haven't had it long enough to find major differences.

I'm sorry but I choose not tell anymore. Last time I share AT&T block access. I check servers every 2-3 days, when I find something I will share.

best way to upgrade from LMY47X.N920AUCU2APB2 to MMB29K.N920AUCS4CQA1
Hi,
Thanks a ton for the update!! I have a at&t note-5 being used on t-mobile and is currently on build number:LMY47X.N920AUCU2APB2(mar 2016 update) and I was wondering as to how to upgrade to the latest version MMB29K.N920AUCS4CQA1. Since I can't get my hands on a at&t sim I will need to update it manually. Could anybody please guide me as to what is the best way to get to the latest version. I did search the forum but there seem to multiple and sometimes confusing ways so wanted a little clarity on that. Thanks in advance!!
You can ODIN from your desktop PC directly to *****PK1
After that, you would then use ADB from your desktop PC (USB debugging enabled) to sideload the subsequent updates to your device as Nobarb suggested. However that last step would wipe your device (so a backup will be necessary).
I'm in the same boat as you are, so I'm just waiting for the next official update (or something flashable in ODIN to get me back up to date)
Hi!
I just purchased a TCL 43S434 and I've been searching through the forums here learning what I can about it.
From what I can find, it sounds like firmware version V440 is the latest firmware I could find on these forums for my particular TV. The part that is confusing me is it would appear that the version I am running now is V122 (Unless I'm not reading this right), not V440. I would have expected these to be sequential, so I'm concerned I'm on a much older firmware. OTA update feature says there are no updates available for me.

What is release date of firmware ?
Android 9 ?
As per pic....V8-R51MT02-......you can install version with Android 11.
Hi @stasiof, thank you for the quick response. I was hoping you would find your way to my post as you seemed very knowledgable on the topic when I was doing some searching around.
I've attached (below) another screenshot that should hopefully answer your questions.
Can you tell me a little about what the R51MT02 relates to? Why exactly does that determine I can run Android 11? Where might one find newer firmware with say Android 11 on it? I assume on this forum somewhere.
Thank you for all your help.
Ok, let start with some history....
Previous S434 models (2020 version) has a bit different hardware inside TV.
This is how you found firmware V440.....
V8-R851T02-LF1V440.017008
Anyway ,this you can't flash ,as your is now V8-R51MT02.
I found your version and you can keep as backup....V122:
http://na-update.cedock.com/apps/resource2/V8R51MT02/V8-R51MT02-LF1V122/FOTA-OTA/V8-R51MT02-LF1V122.019313.zip
Other then this I found test version V999 dated Apr 26 2021....1.12GB
http://na-update.cedock.com/apps/resource2/V8R51MT02/V8-R51MT02-LF1V999/FOTA-OTA/V8-R51MT02-LF1V999.019587.zip
About Android 11...
Models 2021 rather then N.America version using same firmware......
V8-R51MT02 with A11.
As your model is without Dolby Vision and some other stuff, not sure how
will run on your model.
More info about this firmwares...
TCL 2021 Android TVs (C05/G05/BeyondTV6/BeyondTV4)
(43/50/55/65/75") P725...LED https://www.tcl.com/eu/en/tvs/p725 (50/55/65/75") C725...QLED https://www.tcl.com/eu/en/tvs/c725 (65/75") X925...MiniLED https://www.tcl.com/au/en/products/x925/75X925.html RT51M Platform (Realtek RTD2851M)...
forum.xda-developers.com
If I found other firmware, I will post here....in future.
Thanks so much for providing this extra information!
I have read through that thread you linked about the newer firmware. And I have one follow up question. After going through the thread, it appears that the latest firmware for R51MT02 is V256 (link to your post in that thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...c05-beyondtv6-beyondtv4.4255729/post-85161485)
In that post you mentioned that V256 has a build date of June 05th. and that appears to be the latest R51MT02 firmware (V8-R51MT02-LF1V256). Is there a particular reason I would want to run that V999 (build date April 26th) version you referenced instead of this V256?
Also, as a side note. It's interesting that the V256 security patch is 2020-12-05 when the security patch in my V122 is 2021-1-05. Just a curiosity.
Thanks again!
V999 posted above is Android 9 (still) test version deducated for N.America models.
V256 is Android 11 global version, bigger in zip file (200MB more) ,for wider range of TCL models with RT51M chassis (as your).
Security patch date is not so important.
If not happy ,with both, you can always flash your present version V122 back.
Edit:
If everything ok with your firmware , I will leave as it.
Can someone confirm whether IPTV applications (Smart IPTV, Timate etc) works on the V256 firmware?
i have the 43s434 model and it has a black screen the links above dont load to download the firmware the one that did the tv said no update available...is there a link to any firmware that i can use to fix my tv. tcl is putting me through loops and my tv is still under warranty. thanks. also i have the north america 43s434 model. also what is the process after downloading. do i out the downloaded zip and go or extract that zip and put the zip inside on the usb. im at a point where im at a loss of hope other than buying a new one at this point.

nope couldn't get any firmware to work i got lucky and got a update version of the same tv on warranty
Weird question can you get HDR10+ logo to show on some stuff with this TV? It technically can't according to specs but I can get the logo instead of HDR if it's HDR10+
my new 43s434 is on V8-R851T02-LF1V449.018073 and see here 458 is the newest version but it says mine is up to date when I try network update. any idea if I can do a manual update without messing it up.
NVIDIA Recovery Images for all Gen ShieldTV consoles.

Happy flashing.
Thank You!!
Don't forget to erase your Partitions if on Lineage or a dev build.. Here is how:

final version or rc?
Has anyone else attempted this flash? I got it booted after a fresh partition wipe, bc yesterday, the launcher kept crashing, however, even today it continues to crash. I can play around in settings and i'm sure a custom launcher would work fine, however I had someone who wanted to see the stock version early and this is erm, not quite right haa...
and what i mean by crash is it intermittently flashes black and then back into the launcher. no discernable pattern or guess as to why. going to continue to toy with it and try to update it...
---edit i jumped the gun, i think those flashes were updates
----so after flashing the system over, wait for the shield to post into the chromecast screensaver, dont mess with it, then it will be fine
Hi guys

I think My main question would Be, and forgive me, because I'm learning as I go, While Running Stock, are you able to post into TWRP, after unlocking the bootloader?
Like, through fastboot, theoretically you shouldn't have to install the developer images as i did in my examples,,, but if you could get TWRP recovery to post, while in stock, with a momentarily unlocked bootloader, you should be able to run the OEM unlock code, then flash the staging blob, as well as the new images...
i do not mean to disrespect NVIDIA... but if you read their flash codes...
you can tell their devs are much more proficient on linux,
which is a great trait~! but it doesnt translate well for windoz userz...
Does anyone know if it is possible to update to consumer release via OTA after flashing this developer release?
I'd like to install this developer release on my girlfriend's Shield TV 2017 now and once Nvidia releases the consumer release, would she be able to update it via OTA? She is not technically proficient to update it to the consumer release by herself using fastboot and ADB.
Shield Experience 9.0.0 is working perfectly. I don't know why USB devices take forever to load files on Android 11 and crashes MX Player? Anyone else having the same issue? It's a developmental image so having these bugs occur is what happens. Anyways I reverted back to 8.2.3 and my issue is now resolved

NEVER MIND I LIED.
I tried to do the known working procedure from memory and missed a step, the method still works. Got latest update with root running row. Shame I had to do a factory reset while trying to figure things out but small sacrifices...

Thank you for sharing your experience, I have some issue... to prevent fragment external HDD I prefer ext4 fs and unfortunately the nvidia roms doesnt support at this time! So I install microg magisk module on LineageOS 17 but I encountered black screen! also I install official microG release: https://download.lineage.microg.org/mdarcy/lineage-17.1-20220110-microG-mdarcy.zip but I encountered black screen too!

I still only see the 8.2.3 recovery listed on the Nvidia website. I didn't sign in as a developer though. Where did you get version 9.0.0?

It has been officially released. If you're not signed up as a developer or if the developer site doesn't work for you like it didn't for me, then your best bet is to lock bootloader (if it's unlocked), check for updates and then install the updates, then unlock the bootloader and add any/all of your modifications back.
Had issues bypassing Google login so jumped on the Lineage bandwagon. Is there anything worthwhile in 9.0 over 8.2.3?
