Help a newbie. - Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

First post so apologies if this in the wrong place.
I tried to install the full android ROM onto the shield TV and now it appears to be bricked it is stuck at the nvidia logo tried the factory reset and back to the logo.
I also tried to put the stock recovery files back on it but I am obviously doing something wrong as it didnt work. Can anyone show in the way an idiot can understand how to fix this. Thanks

I can access twrp through adb and tried to restore from there but still takes me back to nvidia logo. Anyone got any advice on how to unbrick this?

Hello here is a link with the stock firmware:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/shield-tv/general/nvidia-shield-tv-update-3-0-t3286421
but you must flash it with twrp not on adb :good:
but make a full wipe with twrp before and then it should works.
put the zip file on the sd card.

Maybe the zip file is corrupted. Try to download it again.
Or maybe CWM has some problem, idk, I prefer TWRP (MultiRom version to be exact).

what is the code for koth49 i extract the image stock file and it is only one file tar file
I assume you are using Linux (or OSX maybe). You can simply uncompress the file with tar xvzf imagefile.tgz
On Win you can easily open it with WinRar.

Bootloop Help After Trying To Root 7.1.1

So I flashed the 7.1.1 update and everything was fine. I then tried to root through TWRP with the most recent version of recovery and and SuperSu and when I went to reboot it would get to the "Google" splash screen and go back to the warning. I then tried to restore to my Nandroid that I made right before the 7.1.1 flash but it does the same thing. I ended up doing a factory reset, still looping. I tried flashing an old firmware but it still would loop. I got desperate and did a full wipe and then flashed the old firmware from September's update but it still will not boot. I'm a long time lurker I just don't post much. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Nope. And so are other folks.

What version of twrp were you using?? Also what company makes the storage (not memory) on your device?

Have you tried installing custom ROM, instead of a stock one?
And tell us what @ArminasAnarion asked for. There may be a pattern here. :good:
I haven't tried a custom ROM. I'll try that if I get any down time at work. Also, I'll check for you @ArminasAnarion in a bit.
Might be a noob question, but how do I get the custom rom files over to my phone to flash in recovery?

Well if you cant access twrp then your not flashing anything; did you try downloading the latest Nexus 6p factory image and using adb to flash it?? If you need help with that I can lay it out for you. Also there was an efs partition issue with twrp 3.0.2-1 and down so make sure your twrp is 3.0.2-2!

I can access TWRP. I haven't tried the latest factory image, only September's release. I just tried a custom rom and it gets to the Google screen but then loops just after the G starts to animate.

Make sure your using twrp 3.0.2-2; and download the latest factory image for the Nexus 6p (NBD90X) and use adb (fastboot) to flash that whole thing. Extract the files to your android sdk platform tools folder then run the flash-all.bat file. (If you are using a 64gb or 128gb device DONT DO THIS) Only do this with the 32gb model. If its a 64 or 128 model go here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206928 and go to sub section 10. How To Flash The Factory Images (And Return To Stock) (On post two) and follow that.

Newest image didn't work either..
Have you tried WugFresh's Nexus Root Toolkit? Not sure if it will work for your situation, but it has an option to restore to factory settings and unroot if you're soft-bricked or bootlooped. Might be worth a shot if everything else isn't working.
FWIW, I successfully updated to 7.1.1 NPF10C and rooted by using fastboot to flash bootloader, radio, boot, system, and vendor. Then used TWRP 3.0.2-2 to flash SuperSU 2.78 SR1. No issues.

No, this twrp cannot install supersu. It can not mount the data so it can install files but the files will not do anything. I have not tried to backup and restore with this chinese twrp. You can also mount the system partition manually then you can cut and paste in the root directory.

I can view the files in the root directory. When the phone in this recovery you can reboot, shutdown, reboot recovery, or reboot bootloader. You can also use other functions like factory reset, format data,...The main features likes flashing the files will not work since it cannot mount the data partition.

The only way to fix it is to get the system.img and boot.img from your VNS-L31 update.app and restore it via TWRP
How?
Pur the extracted img files in the meticulus folder on your sd card. Boot in Twrp and then click on "restore dump"
just find the oeminfo for your device and follow this guide (the part where he explains how to downgrade):

Hi guys i'm answering from an other account. By the way at the end the twrp wasn't the same of Meticulus cuz i tryed to mount an other firmware, it was the Erecovery(pratically useless) and only thing i could do was going in fastboot but i couldn't do anything so i went to the assistence. They told me that if they can they unlock this bringing it to the indrustrial system, the problem is, they can do it??? cuz if they can't they told me that they have to change the motherboard and i should pay for it. Now, do u think i have any chance??
