shield tv FACTORY BIND fix anyone? - Shield Android TV Android Development

when the device is built, (factory assembly line) they- FACTORY BIND the game pad. does anyone know how to repeat this?
i have multiple shield TV's (2015,2017, k1, portable) and they were all used. no controller shows as FACTORY BUNDLED.
seems silly , but i have noticed ( on my friends SHIELD TV 2017), a FACTORY BIND remote/gamepad ALWAYS works , and almost never requires re-connecting.
here is the strange thing that makes no sense to me, my friends device ( all factory bungled ) can use his gamepad as a mouse in the YOUTUBE app, but my personal device ( same mode - same firmware-l - but with used controller i bought later ) wont let me use the right joystick as a mouse in youtube.
Plus- a factory bundled controller also works at BOOTLOADER wirelessly, while others require a cable.
i have tried both DEV & stock FIRMWARE, rooted, non-rooted, but no dice. using FX or Mx-SILVER , i tried looking into the root of the system, but its not clear where this information is kept. (i suspect this requires some hex-editing)
anyone point me in the correct direction?

PS: its a bummer that NVIDIA disabled the mouse touchpad on the first gen controllers. not sure who made this call, as GOOGLE does not prefer it, but also doesn't mandate its removal. ( i suspect NVIDIA did this because of the tape used to hold the touch area down. --should you ever tear apart a first gen controller, there is a layer of double sided tape between the plastic top and the actual touch board, )

Logitech Bluetooth Keyboard

So my 20 year old son kicked me off my imac ...so I got inspired, whipped out the "Logitech Tablet Keyboard for Android 3.0+" and resumed my work on an Office Document.
I was impressed with the keyboard; it connected first try, has dedicated Home, back arrow, Menu buttons and function buttons that control the music and launch the calender.
Also the keyboards case serves as a dock/holder for my Note.
I'd say the 5.3" Note and BT Keyboard are a great match.
I'm using the Apex launcher which works in landscape mode but I can see where a BT Mouse would help navigate. I need to find a small one.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717
I have the same one- someone on here actually posted up the deal from Daily Steals- and i love it! i use it everyday at work and at home. I am also in search of a Bluetooth mouse that i like, but in the meantime, i can just plug in a USB mouse at work
edit: mine actually isnt the same- i bought the 'Logitech Portable Keyboard for iPad' because it was 29 bucks, vs the 89 retail. the home button still works, volume and music controls work, search works, its just missing a back button.

Found this apple mouse in my junk drawer and it works.
Why do you allow your 20 year old to kick you off of anything? Tell him to get his own iMac or whatever. Unless he is supporting you, which I doubt.
Thanks for the post, though. Nice pics and input.

[Q] HTC Amaze 4G, screen pixelating...paper weight???

Hi Guys
So, I had/have this very little insignificant problem (compared to what I have now) about my Amaze not connecting to my PC properly
So, I decided, since I have had some experience in disassambling "things", I thought I'd take a look inside and see if my USB port in the phone wasnt broken, fortunately it wasn't...
However I didnt think of testing another cable(very, very stupid of me), so I concluded that it was my cable ( i found that out by testing another cable only AFTER I had disassembled it)
But thats only where my troubles started, since I have had some experience on taking things apart I figured it wasnt a biggy but when I put everything together again:
Imagine this filling up the whole Screen (without the mouse cursor of course)

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
However, the device booted u fine, I could adjust the volume and actually hear the volume been adjusted, etc.
But the screen showed those pixels(I do not know what you call it when that happens, screen pixelating???)
The only thing I could think of is,
Where the black dot is, I thought it was a clamp so I (by accident of course) broke a piece of plastic off revealing metal wires, but the area of the proken off pice is no larger thean the middle of a pin head
I tried various ways, trying to figure out what caused this but I have no idea
btw. I also updated my 4Ext recovery to 1.x..x rc9 (latest release and did no restart after)
I am not sure what happened but ill probably pull an all nighter, trying to fix it (in some or other way)
Any help/advice would be appreciated!
p.s., please dont tell me Im an idiot for doing that, I know I am...it cost me $260...!

got bamboo stylus fineline to work

Bamboo Stylus Fineline works.
-Add device in Smart Lock first. https://support.google.com/nexus/answer/6093922?hl=en
-Download 'fineline' pack in ' Bamboo paper'.
-It seems as if when reconnecting the stylus to the device you have to set Bluetooth to "forget device" (not smart lock), then when you press the sync button on the stylus it connects.

Bamboo stylus fineline works. It took me awhile to get it to work. I cannot get it to connect or work on my gtab pro 8.4. (However stylus is set center nd works without connection with no pressure or acreen touch recognition)
I believe it's simply when connecting the device to BT to make sure it's added as a secure device. However it didn't say it was conmected in secure device until i had bamboo paper installed with fineline pack purchased.
Let me know id it works for thosr interested. I'm curious if others have been doing it another way. However, i haven't been able to find anything online about it.

The images you posted don't work, also could you clarify what you are talking about. I read the OP a few times and its not very clear what you are trying to convey.
No problem. Agreed. The name of the device and the app made it sound strange.
Do you have any samples of how fine it writes on the N6?
Anymore word on this.

Dead area on Nexus 9 screen

I've run into what I think is the same problem with two different new Nexus 9 tablets, from two different sources, and I'd like to find out if this is a common defect with the Nexus 9 in general. In both cases, let them run all system upgrades to the latest version (6.0.1).
With the first tablet, I first noticed that I had problems pressing and holding (to move icons on the home screen) near the left edge (USB connection at the bottom). Tried a bit more, and found it only intermittently registered touches in about a 1cm wide vertical band 1cm in from the left side. Sent it back to Amazon, ordered a replacement from a different affiliate.
Second tablet came, I let it install updates, and got the same problem. This time I installed a touchscreen test app, used the "paint" mode (draws a pixel wherever you touch), and after sweeping my finger pretty thoroughly over the screen, saw an obvious mostly-dead bar in the problem area. See attached image.
Has anyone else run into this? Known Nexus 9 issue? Could it be a software problem, unlikely as that seems? Any help or advice would be appreciated. I want a stock Android tablet badly enough to give the Nexus 9 a third try, but not if I'm probably just going to run into this again.

What the hell is this TV Box AND need firmware ... Any help is welcomed

Box seems "HS 9 PRO", not sold anywhere ... I was able to flash another firmware (In fact, 5-6 firmware "works" for those looking H6_4_32_20191114, X10puls, Tanix H6, Qplus H6) *BUT*
1) Wifi XR819 doesn't work (can live with that)
2) Remote doesn't work which is a pain for ON/OFF (mainly "ON" lol)
Supposed to be, Quad Core A53, Mali450 or Mali720 GPU... I used PhoenixProUSB to flash the images, as said, quite a few worked (I've been trying for 2 days zillions of IMG)
I would gladly put back the original firmware but I have no clue where to get it... Anybody know this box? Underneath, nothing relevant "STB model: HS_PVR_Pro_Dec_2020"
Here's the box (works with X10Plus firmware) and remote (that doesn't work). I can use a USB keyboard but can't turn ON the box.

Also, found out the remote is controlled by a chip "MT908" if I could do something with this, would still be happy (mainly for ON/OFF button lol) but I think it's just the chip and not related to the config of it :|. Anyway, any help is welcomed otherwise it's a bit useless my "4k pro" box
Looks like i'm out of luck :|
any idea on what the remote could be? I could at least use another firmware to enable the remote. Also, possible to install the wifi card in any way? I'm rooted but stock Android 9.0
