[Q] Samsung TV Remote not connecting

Hi guys,
coming from windows mobile I´m pretty much a noob in bada, so I have still questions about the standard behavior of the phone. first of all, is there automatic backlight adjustment?
I´m having further problems with the samsung tv remote app. i downloaded it on the appstore. It says that it is working with the wave II s8530 and my tv (samsung le37b650). sending videos and pics through allshare works fine (tv found), but tv remote app won´t find my tv. help is much appreciated
cheers ede
ps.: funny thing is ... using the htc-diamond for about 3 years the wave II is weak at all the points the diamond is good (outlook-sync, navigation, gps) and extreamly strong on all the negative aspects of the htc-diamond (battery, photos, mp3 & video playback). appstore, and widgets are pretty poor but i hope there is a possibility to create own widgets (or maybe i find a non-childish-looking-calender app somewhere) ... hopefully someone can give me a hint on how to delete all the vodafone apps on my phone or on how to flash the latest fw with social hub premium working

is you phone branded???
if not there is alot of modified fws floating around on our thread choose what fits you and flash it

thank you for your quick reply
yes it has a vodafone branding ...
this seems to be the only fw with social hub premium working http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=920 but it is for the Wave 8500 not for my model.
any suggestions on what fits me - or help where i can find info to make up my mind?

oh sorry for late reply
i can't help you
you must (Debrand)unlock the phone first because if you flashed the phone now it will brick
if you did that come to this thread again and i will help you right away
i am not sure if you can flash a branded phone or not but no one tried as it is dangerous

mhh ok i´ll see what i can do. thank you.
ps: it has a vodafone branding but no simlock or netlock
SW ver S8530BUJK4
CSC ver S8530VFGJK5

ok i got the JKA firmware, no-branding anymore and shp ... samsung tv remote is still not finding my tv ?

good for you man
i don't use that app as i don't have a wifi tv wait for anyone else to help you out

Could someone post the last apk for Samsung Remote app 2.1.3? I dont seem to be able to get it from Market...

Bluetooth Dun support

Hi Everyone
Just wondering if anyone has managed to get Bluetooth Dial-Up-Networking up and running?
The MB Comand Online requires BT DUN and I can't seem to get it working.
Any help would be appreciated.
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk

Be careful. There are 2 different apps. One is BlueDUN which is the old, obsolete one and then there is BlueDUN+ which is the current one.
I just found out about it today. I had the old BlueDUN and it didn't open the apps. With BlueDUN+ no problems. It just sucks that I have to pay for the same program twice (BlueDUN and BlueDUN+)
If you have questions let me know. Regards from Stuttgart.

Nvidia Shield 2017 Chinese firmware -> International

Blast. Just received my Nvidia Shield TV/PC 2017 16GB. It is in Chinese, only options when starting are Chinese, Taiwanese, English, then you have to register to a Chinese video company named iQiyi (I did), then it upgrades to version 6.1 (24.31.89.60) which still has all the Chinese [email protected], half of the interface is Chinese, no Google, etc.
Question:
1) Can I convert to an international version ? How ?
2) Do I need the public open source recovery image (e.g. 6.2.0) at https://developer.nvidia.com/shield-open-source or the developer one at https://developer.nvidia.com/shield-developer-os-images ?
3) Do I just follow http://developer.download.nvidia.co...ATV_2017/6.2.0/HowTo-Flash-Recovery-Image.txt ?
4) Which USB OTG is appropriate for the 2017 version ? (there is no mini USB port)
5) Can I do anything else instead (as I might have to wait for days for an USB OTG cable) ? I.e. can I connect to the Nvidia Shield from an Android smartphone and adb/fastboot from there ?
Thanks
(also, please somebody move this to https://forum.xda-developers.com/shield-tv/help )

Hi.
Isn't the Chinese version supposed to be compatible with the Nintendo wii games?
And yeah I think you should be able to flash the normal version of the fw.

Yes, it should but I went with NVS for retro gaming and media playing.
I never managed to install (through Magisk) Kali on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 smartphone (complains about busybox), so I guess my only choice is to wait for that Male-Male USB cable to arrive, then try connecting/flashing with a computer

Hi,
Can you manage to port Nintendo games to international version ?
Thx.

I have to add that connecting to NVS through USB using my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 didn't work. After a struggle, I managed to install Kali NetHunter but "adb devices" does not return anything. Due to bad weather I will have to wait for that USB cable in order to connect from my computer, that's all I can do
@A.M.A.S
I haven't bought anything from iQiyi, since my goal of purchase was not about Nintendo. The interface is localised to Chinese anyway, and the content and payment options are for Chinese users. As far as I can tell, the Chinese version is being advertised as a device to buy/play Nintendo games. And that's what early buyers seem to do (judging from most comments), but China never had a culture for Computers and games back in the day (they were banned), so it doesn't surprise me that they only care/know about Nintendo and some boring 3D FPS stuff of the new millennium. Being an old-school guy from the 80s, my heart is elsewhere.

After the USB OTG arrived I was able to flash the international image (6.2.0) from Nvidia using my Mac. I had some trouble with vendor.img (hint: it needs to be in the same directory as the fastboot command) among other things (for hardware booting to bootloader using the controller buttons it is try-and-error, the entrance to recovery menu is rather unintuitive, etc) but all is well now. The hardware performance is good, the fan is not that bad (still wish there was a fanless case), the controller and remote DO feel a bit cheapish, Android TV and its apps ARE rather limited and rough at edges. I will probably keep it.

Mind if I ask where'd you buy it from? I'm thinking of getting a chinese one for myself.

The Chinese 6.1 image is up on Nvidia's download site, if you want to give it a try. I wouldn't flash the bootloader tho'.

@batoussai
I am in China for the time being, so I bought it locally.

@zadox
I'm in the same situation like you. I tried to install the Google Apps on the chinese ROM but they keep crashing and the pop-up is annoying. So I'm ready to flash the international ROM.
Would you link me to the OTG cable? I can't seem to find the proper one on JD or Taobao.

I used this one and it worked:

Thanks! I succesfully updated it. With VPN directly on the router all the services work. Even though when you power on the box it still displays the chinese store logo, the rest is the international ROM. I am loving this box.
The only thing I couldn't manage to work is GeForce NOW. Heck, I think even in US it's not so easy to stream HD games. I could only get 540p at 30 fps
On the same note, I think anyone could try flashing the chinese ROM to the international box to try out those Nintendo games, but probably would need a VPN to a China server to make it work.

migmanson, how much do these boxes cost in RMB? I may need to get my mother-in-law to pick one up this week before she heads to the US.

Guys, thanks for sharing your experience. I planned to buy NVS (now I'm in China) but they (TaoBao bandits) wanted something like 1700-1800 RMB and 2 to 3 weeks for delivery and no guarantees at all, so I bought Chinese version (fair price 1499RMB, I found from private seller just unpacked for 1299RMB) - Replaced the firmware with 6.2.0 International version - all worked flawless, so - I can also confirm - no problem to upgrade Chinese version to International one. Bootloader was locked, after reinstall I lock the new one too. Thanks for that thread again!

anyone can read chinese.. try this apk i got from the firmware zip.
It's the store.. might work on non chinese shields..
https://ufile.io/pranm

will any DRM key missing?

I have both international & Chinese version running in my home.
For the Chinese one, upgraded to the latest 6.3 version firmware. Install Google firmware enabler through external USB. Then you are all set with google play store.
Having tried flashing the Chinese version with international firmware. All work but Netflix app cannot be controlled properly by remote.

Mind if I ask how you got the US version to run under Chinese net? I'm about to set up the vpn on my router because I bought the US version of Nvidia shield. What vpn are you running on your router?

Hi, I bought a US version of Nvidia shield just to avoid all the Chinese content. Problem is, I couldn't even register. I'm trying to setup a VPN on my router now through express. Can you please tell us how you flashed the router with a vpn and which brand? I'm dying to using it and this internet is just frustrating...
Also, I'm a little new to flashing software onto these drives. Can you please tell us how you installed the international version from the Chinese version or vise versa?
Thanks a lot

Betop G1 Controller

Does anyone else have this? I can connect it etc., but cant seem to get it to work with any games?

Did you go to App Assistant and set it up in there?

I tried to read some of the instructions which came with the Betop G1 in Chinese. Seems that the Betop G1 requires Huawei Game Suite version 9.xx to work.
I accidentally removed my Game Suite.
Can some kind soul please direct me to the APK for the version 9.x of Huawei game suite? I downloaded the version 8.x but it doesn't have keymapper. The version 9 seems to have keymapper.
Here's an excerpt from the manual, translated:
https://www.betop-cn.com/posts/458
Q2. After the handle is connected to the mobile phone, the rocker and other operations do not respond?
a. The Beitong G1 controller is currently only applicable to Mate and P series mobile phones of Huawei EMUI9.0 and above;
b. Please call the Huawei Mobile App Assistant mapping page to check whether the mapping settings are correct.

Are you guys using the global or Chinese 20 x?

Yes, it seems to ONLY work with SOME of the Chinese games in there. I can't even try those because I cant understand what the prompts are in those games to move forward. Guess it's going back.

Thanks for these. The second link seems to backup what I said about CERTAIN games and in Chinese. The first one is for Non-Huawei phones, but I'll try it anyway and post results. Thanks again.

Grabbed it, thank you very much. Hopefully when my pad comes it will do the job!

I have that installed (there's a newer version) but it doesn't help

What games have you tried?

Any update on this guys? I am planning to buy betop g1 for my mate 20 pro. If i can only use it on chinese apps and cannot use it for other games such as pubg, war robots etc., i will just cancel the order. It will be a complete waste of money.
Any update guys if you can use the bluetooth controller to other non chinese games? Thanks a lot.

PubG, Fortnite, etc. DEFINITELY not. There is some Chinese knockoff game of PubG in the Chinese app store, but I cant understand the prompts to get it to work. Save your money.

Returning mine

The other controller listed on our phone will not fit. The W1 is about 6mm from opening up wide enough to slide in. But the few games I checked seem to work.

I will just cancel ny order guys. Thanks for the heads up! Will just wait until they release english website for the betop and allow the usage english apps. Thanks

There's a newer version of Huawei Appassistant 9.0.0.309 available to download somewhere?
I now have the Gamepad so want to test the latest version. My version has the overlays but still doesn't work.
Apparently there is a 9.0.0.311 out there somewhere...
