Finally. Maybe this is one step closer to iPlayer on Android TV.

I just use a customised Kodi build for all my media streaming. Easier than installing individual apps, and works great on the sheild Tv.

I stopped using Kodi a while ago, one reason being that the iPlayer add-on was badly under-maintained at the time. Are you using that add-on or have you found a better way?
I've been reading articles about the Shield's UK launch and it seems that it's shipping with a brand new 10-foot iPlayer app. However no such app is available on the Play Store yet. I'm going to try updating to firmware version 2.0.

Ordered my 500gb version today from nvidia store should get it after the 5th October.

I imported my device from amazon.com a while ago. I just updated to firmware version 2.0 in the hope that iPlayer would become available on the Play store but it didn't. Could somebody who is buying in the UK verify that it does in fact ship with iPlayer? Pre-release articles (which claimed it would ship with iPlayer in the UK) aren't exactly the most reliable source.

Uk version is now available to buy from nvidia site and various retailers linked there, just search google for nvidia shield and if youre in the uk the nvidia site will default to your location.
It's £150 for basic 16gn version.

I got mine from Scan. £149.99 delivered next day.

Damn that sucks. I've found several UK launch articles mentioning that it has iPlayer. This one even has a photo showing the app.

However there's no mention whatsoever of the iPlayer on Nvidia's official site. I've heard that big companies sometimes bribe the press to publish slightly false information about new products but if that's the case here then I'm appalled.

Proof that BBC iPlayer is preinstall in UK edition of Nvidia SHIELD
.youtube(.)com/watch?v=X6T_Bra4Vfw

Incorrect kawshik201
Here is my actual play store screen:
Also, iPlayer is not shown when searching the Play Store on the device (it may be intentionally hidden I guess)

Found an article which goes into more depth on the iPlayer app which seems to come pre-installed only on review units:
"Meanwhile, there's no Amazon Instant Video support (perhaps not so surprising), while BBC iPlayer is supplied pre-installed - but it's a basic port with no support for any of Android TV's killer features. On top of that, there's a lack of HD iPlayer functionality - a remarkable omission..."
According to the comments Sony Android TVs come with an iPlayer app which supports HD.

Someone from Nvidia made a response in their official forum.

It is new to the UK market, it will get sorted. TBH is there really a mad rush for iPlayer? Everything is still being developed further for this device, eg. Kodi and any other app that wants to change output refresh rate on the fly. Be patient kids I still love mine!

[VIDEO] N64oid update to 2.4 - bluetooth multiplayer!

2.4 UDPATE:
Fixes some ROMs like Starfox, adds bluetooth controller multiplayer!
More details here: http://www.androidnz.net/2011/09/n64oid-updates-to-24-multiple-bluetooth.html
...and video!
Its fantastic - while lots of games still don't work, lots more do work now, and the speed is really good - Goldeneye is fullspeed and smooth for example.
I would guess that we will now see YongZH working on specific game issues, starting with the most valued titles, so it will just continue to get better and better.
UPDATE:
Video demo of new engine via MHL and Phonejoy dual stick controller -
http://blog.clove.co.uk/2011/07/21/...efresh-dual-analog-sticks-are-a-go/#more-8046
you are right, just fired up the new n64oid and ocarina of time and although one bug is gone (texture flicker on the grass) there seems to be a transparency issue. i had the free slideme version before and now paid 3.99$ on this crap? also it does not support save games created with previous versions.
i use stock kf3, no chainfire. i am really annoyed that the free version worked fairly ok and now i had to pay, just to make everything worse.
You can switch back to the old gpu code in the settings until he updates it for the GS2.
Yep, but now the old engine has bugs that it didn't use to before.
http://www.fpsece.net/forum2/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=2145&start=210
They are working on fixing the GS2 graphics problem and its their number 1 priority right now.
Yeah, I saw that in the Slideme comments. Will be great when its fixed, game speed is fantastic - even my Sensation can play Goldeneye! Its running much more smoothly on the SGSII though, so should be something very special.
NZtechfreak said:
Quick heads up that the long awaited update is now available at Slideme.
Sadly extensive graphical bugs in the SGSII, can't wait for a fix for them, because the increased speed on stuff like Goldeneye is amazing.
How is it running for you guys?
Actually, I wonder if it could be a Chainfire 3D related problem, will experiment with that tomorrow!

Checkout N64oid v2.0.1 is released.
*Changes*:
v2.0.1
- Fixed depth issue on Galaxy S2
- Changed app icon
Here:- http://slideme.org/application/n64oid
Yep, been playing it for the last hour with my dual stick Phonejoy controller - awesome!
Games are faster, and more ROMs work now, but still lots of optimisations needed. Goldeneye now runs fullspeed and smooth for me, Ocarina of Time virtually perfect, Mario Kart and Banjo Kazooie also much improved.
So I have to pay for an update? Really?!

Pad looks awesome. Does the analog sticks work for n64oid and fpse? How much is it?
I haven't tried it with FPSE yet, should work with it. Works great on N64oid! Will be posting a video a bit later (hopefully today, but possibly tomorrow).

Cant wait. Can you find out when the masses can get this please and how much?
Wow, tried FPSe for the first time on my SGSII. Tried Tekken 3, since that was always one of the more demanding titles to emulate - result was amazing. Solid 60fps in gameplay (occasional drops a few fps in cutscenes), and with a controller like the Phonejoy and MHL the whole experience was as authentic as you could get. I've finished my videos and review for Clove, it should go live later today.
The Phonejoy itself will be available soon, Clove will be selling some - I would keep an eye out on their announcement. I believe they will be doing pre-orders - I'd encourage people to make use of them, because if Clove see a high demand they will order more in (and the makers will have more produced).
If anyone figures out how to make the old saves work, please let me know.
I think someone said if you change the old extension/save file name to the current format, it will work.
Wow, would be great if its that simple (I will try shortly).

Tv-Tuner App

Hi,
I just bought a Korean SGSII and I got an antenna like this :

Suppose to be for TV (TV Tuner), anyone knows where I can find the App to exploit that ?
I can't seem to find anything.
Here's a video showing what it does on a Galaxy Tab.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YHrzdd4eDNM
Thank you for the help
Probably gonna be tough. Most of us don't have korean sgs2
I understand that, just trying to figure out if there's a Korean Rom that would have the APK and someone saved it or something.
Also the app seems available on Brazil devices too.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=919219
Found this, i'll see if I can make it work on a SGSII rom.
isnt that galaxy s in that picture?
no Ariel or TV tuner chip I am aware of in this phone, hows that gonna work exactly?
I think that this is NOT Samsung Galaxy (S/S2) at all
yeah agree doesn't look like any variant of the SII I've seen, maybe a misleading buy
Here is the link from the korean Samsung website
LINK
Some where in the middle is the tv thing but it's just the info sry couldn't find an app. Maybe you can try in a korean android forum?

Guys all he/she is saying is their antenna is like whats in the picture they did not say they had that handset in photo.
i'm a bit gutted, i'd quite like to watch TV on my phone
NVM, guess i'll carry on using TV Catchup...
Broadcast type problems
according to Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATSC_standards
In Korea they are switching over to ATSC as used in the USA
Don't know how that would work with DVB/T in Europe
Don't know how that would work with ISDB-T in Brazil
Different tuner chips would be needed...

I don't know if it is available in the UK but in Switzerland you can have Internet TV.
You pay 9 chf per month and you can watch as much TV as you want over the mobile internet.
You don't even have to pay for the traffic because it's integrated.
So maybe you have this to in the UK?

Aye we have similar things but the difference is that the TV thing from Swisscom comes directly from a provider.
That's the reason why we don't pay for the traffic even when you have a limit.
You have just to pay once.
I don't know how much it costs in the UK but in Switzerland are the flat rates too expensive so it's quite useful. Anyway it's OT .
could someone please answer this question as they sell the same thing in fiji but i do not know the korean app....very very hopefull
there is no mobile with tv tuner in official website of samsung

The Korean variant of SGSII has a tv chip but no FM radio chip. The problem is that the tv works only in Korea. I my self had a Korean version but traded it for international one because it was impossible to make the tv to work in my country.

7 inches is a bit strange for such a device, but why not ? I'm an Xperia Player and I'd love to try that device.
Yes 7" seem a bit big for a handheld console. But I'm interested though. I just have to test these physical buttons/pads before buying (what is the point of leaving questionable touch controls for bad physical ones). Let's hope XperiaPlay and Ouya compatible games will be easily playable. At least 8/16/32 bit emulators would be great.
would be nice to plug the gamepad thingy on and off

For 200$ and without physical button... It's not better or worse, that is just something else...
You'd better compare this Archos gamepad with yinlips and JXD Android consoles.

I'm looking for ICS, 6 buttons (2 shoulders), and one analog stick (all this is a minimum). Do not forget good perfs on emulators.

I can't wait for this to come out. Though shame there's not many sites which offer pre-orders.
I contacted a seller who's offering a pre-order and they said that the date of release is Friday 16th November with a price of £122 ( ex delivery) though nothings set in stone until announced publicly from Archos themselves. Which apparently is within the next week or so.
Either way fingers crossed :fingers-crossed:

Don't know if Amazon has or has not given up on the Fire Phone, but for $130 now (I had just bought it two days ago, and then contacted them for a refund of the $31 difference) including a year of Amazon Prime, it is likely the cheapest 'fair' handset on the market. Tempted to get a couple more to root.

It was there this morning, now it is saying unavailable. Looks like I picked a great time to have my existing Prime expire and picked up the phone just before they stopped selling.
Seems like they are. I would be very happy if they decide to give a bootloader unlock as a going away gift
I picked one off eBay with Prime for 139.99, there seem to be a few others out there. I been playing with it for 5 days now. So far so good, and for a net price of 40.00 bucks, definitely worth it.

I am on the fence about buying that att fire phone too from ebay. (I read something about it updating to a newer OS from A&T causing side loading issues?)
Two questions:
1. With stock fire OS: Is there a way to get google apps (maps, Navigation with GPS) work reliability I don't want to be stuck to here maps.
2. If I go the CM11 route, has the mute button issue and other basics been fixed? And I assume here google apps will have no issues working.

Later in that same forum, someone got the OP to reply on Twitter regarding the update timing for our 2015. Not today, probably a week.

Yet thats not true they did give a date when Ali Kani the General Manger of Shield said at CES just over a week ago that the original Shield TV hardware would get "same features and functionality on the platform on the same day" in this video about 3 min in youtu.be/BGRBUsACIlk
Just another nvidia screw up. Seems to happen all the time with them. The sad part is nvidia as a company won't admit to their screw up. The new shield shouldn't have even been eligible for this update because they should have shipped with it pre installed. Just more of nvidia not appreciating their customers.
Oh, don't have a cow. I'm sure they just had to delay it a couple days. This software engineer knows that the folks standing on conference stages don't check with the engineers before making promises.

Exactly! Nvidia should have done the same as every other tech company out there and either a) *never* issue the upgrade to force us to purchase their brand new device, or b) make us wait 6 months, hoping we'll purchase the new model, then delay the update for another 3 months.
****ing Nvidia. The least customer-centric company out there...
Yea that's why they even updated their site yesterday about the update and today they deleted all the information they put up right? Also if the new shield has the same hardware as the old there should be no reason to delay the update.

Also how are they going to sell the new controller as supported by the old shield when in fact it's not officially supported
First world problems!!! -_-!!!

Also the shield tablets don't officially support the controller either. Sounds to me that nvidia needs a law suit against them for false advertisement, I've already contacted Amazon on the matter.
"just another nvidia screw up" nvidia never had to update your og TV shield with every feature or any feature of the new one. Be glad nvidia is a good freaking company and if more manufacturers are like them we all win! I for one thank nvidia for the new on my old!
