    Philips TV 55PUS8204 No Picture

    Posted: 20 Nov 2021 01:42 PM PST

    I've had the above TV just over 12 months and it's been working without any issue then all of a sudden this evening the picture has gone

    I can still get sound and the Ambilight is still functioning as it should be

    So far tried disconnecting everything and power cycling it by removing the power cable then holding the power button for 30/60 seconds but nothing makes any difference

    Any suggestions would be greatly welcomed

    Anyone knows about Android 10 updates for 2018 Philips TVs?

    Posted: 20 Nov 2021 08:40 AM PST

    Anyone knows if there are plans for 2018 Philips TVs such as PUS8303 (ones with 3 at the end) to have Adroid 10 update? I really regret buying Philips TV since there are no updates after 2 years...

    Storage Issue - Unable to Remove Apps or Factory Reset

    Posted: 20 Nov 2021 07:10 PM PST

    I have a Hisense H8F65 - Android TV will boot up, but then immediately starts throwing error dialogs saying all sorts of processes are crashing (Storage, acore, Android Home, etc). It gives me the "Storage is low" dialog as well.

    ATV won't execute the Clear Cache command. It just clicks and does nothing. It will also not uninstall apps. The UI pops up to confirm uninstall, but then the apps just reappear. I have tried booting into Safe Mode, but it won't. It seems like something is eating up storage which prevents ATV from writing to memory. After rebooting, all changes that were made while the TV was on are reverted, not to defaults, but to the state they were in prior to this storage issue.

    Same thing happens when I do a factory reset. The UI displays confirming reset, but then the reboot step of the reset causes the TV to revert back to that last state.

    I've done an "unprotected reset" from the "secret factory service menu" - again, just reverted to the previous state.

    I've tried the manufacturer's forced firmware update via USB stick procedure. It will not enter the update state from boot (holding power button with USB in). It recognizes an update from within the ATV Settings, however, part of the update process is a reboot which then just restores the previous state.

    I've tried adding a USB Drive to add additional storage. It appears to work, allows me to move apps, but then ATV will crash and reboot - previous state. Now the USB drive only has 17MB available, but when examined on a computer, has no additional files…

    I've tried enabling debugging over USB and connected via ADB, however, the device is never recognized. ADB over Wi-Fi is actively refused.

    Basically it seems like changes are being "journaled", but the storage transactions are unable to be committed. Therefore, storage is essentially volatile.

    I literally have run out of ideas on how to debug. Is there some way to wipe the drive so I can at least try a fresh reinstall?

    Convert Shield TV into a Faster Chromecast with Google TV?

    Posted: 20 Nov 2021 02:50 PM PST

    I've been testing the new Chromecasts w/Google TV and i like the Search function on the remote so much that i want to Install the Google TV launcher along with Google TV Home APK and Google Base APK process as seen below in link to test converting my Shield to a Higher powered Chromecast with Google TV. Its just personal preference. What's also SO awesome is that on the new Chromecast, the Google search and remote works on ALL my sideloaded apps!

    https://www.howtogeek.com/693761/how-to-get-the-google-tv-ui-on-android-tv-devices-right-now/

    My problem is I don't have an original shield tv remote or a Chromecast Google TV remote either. I cant find out if the Chromecast remote will work with the Shield, nor can I find if the Shield TV remote will work with the Google TV launcher just like it does with the Chromecast...

    ​

    • Do I, purchase a Shield TV remote for Google TV launcher on shield tv?
    • Or Go for the Chromecast w/Google TV remote? Will this work?

    Buying a remote almost costs as much as buying the new Chromecast w/Google TV!

    Firestick 4k max vs mi box s 4k

    Posted: 20 Nov 2021 04:31 AM PST

    Hey all,

    As the title suggests my dad is looking for a new device either the new firestick 4k max or the xiaomi mi box s 4k, or if anyone has another suggestion I'm open to it, I've a nvidia shield tv Pro myself but he's not willing to spend the money on that and won't accept anything towards it from me either. I know the firestick max has the better specs etc, but I felt that amazon slowed down the firestick with a new update anytime a brand new firestick was released when I had one, that's why I'm wondering would a different box be any good. Any help or advice or suggestions would be appreciated.

    Mi Box S - Bluetooth is not available when turned off / Remote control app issues

    Posted: 20 Nov 2021 01:57 AM PST

    I'm using remote control from my smartphone with Google TV (former Google Play movies) app as described here https://www.androidpolice.com/2021/09/27/hands-on-how-to-android-tv-new-remote

    It works perfectly fine unless I turn off the Mi Box.

    When turned off bluetooth connection becomes unavailable and Mi Box disappears from available devices in the app. So I can turn it on back only using the original remote stick. But why? The original remote stick works via bluetooth also. Means the bluetooth is available indeed.

    Normally, when turned off, the icon should become red but bluetooth connection should persist so I can turn on the box back.

    I'm struggling with this for some time, already tried different phones, toggling HDMI-CEC (it has no effect in my case, as I'm connected to a monitor, not tv), checked all the app versions but still no luck.

    Also, I noticed that when the remote app is connected via Wi-Fi only, after turning off the icon becomes red and the connection persists. But I can't turn it on of course, because on the latest firmware Mi Box can be turned on only via bluetooth. And when I turn on bluetooth you already know what is happening...

    Any ideas are appreciated.
    My firmware is the latest one Android 9, build 3933.

    Updates and Installs Stuck on "Pending..."

    Posted: 19 Nov 2021 10:53 AM PST

    Tried to install Paramount+ app yesterday - stuck on "Pending..." Never resolved.

    Tried to open Disney+ app today. Would not let me without updating first. Update stuck on "Pending..."

    Any app I try to update (there are 21 updateable apps on my TV according to GPStore) is the same thing.

    Following all the other online guides I deleted caches for Google Play Store and Google play services. I signed out and back into my google account and restarted TV. I have done all things everyone who has written on this issue has suggested. Still "Pending..."

    During troubleshooting I even deleted Disney+ and when I went to reinstall it, sure enough I got stuck on "Pending..."

    Help!
