Nvidia Shield Tablet K1: Replacing screen on my own

Fri, 07 Dec 2018 20:16:16 -0700

I have an nvidia shield k1 tablet, i accidentally dropped the tablet the other day (even with a hard shell case cover surrounding it and now the screen is cracked. I've contacted tablet repair services in my area and apparently none of them have or can find parts to replace the cracked screen. Could someone instruct me on how to replace it myself? As that's likely what I will end up having to do, short of purchasing a new tablet.

Nvidia Shield Tablet K1: The screen won't respond to touch at times.

Sun, 26 Jan 2020 17:17:51 -0700

My Shield has recently started not responding to any touch on the screen. I’ve tried a stylus and it doesn’t work either. I can’t get it to unlock. I try turning it off and on. Other times it works fine.

Thoughts??

Nvidia Shield Tablet K1: I have run into an issue after owning my tablet since early 2016.

Mon, 08 Jul 2019 04:24:37 -0700

I seem To have run into an issue after owning my tablet since early 2016. It's begun to charge very slowly and discharge very quickly. More recently, however there's been a larger issue. After running around for a day, I got home, pulled my tablet out of my bag, and turned the screen on. I then noticed something very odd. The battery indicator was showing 0% (it was 58% not even 30 mins before) and the lightning symbol was showing up in the icon, as if it was charging. It wasn't plugged in at all. I tried restarting the tablet after plugging it in, and was greeted with the dead battery icon. This persisted for close to 2 hours, until it finally started charging. After turning it back on and charging it for close to 14 hours, the battery was only at 85%. Now, it still has the symbol that it's charging while unplugged, however, it's flashing now. It won't let me turn off the screen, as every time the charging symbol appears, it turns the screen back on. Is there any solution to this or is this the beginning of the end for my tablet?

Nvidia Shield Tablet K1: i'm having a very very hard time playing music.

Thu, 14 Sep 2017 17:18:15 -0700

my tablet is brand new along with my headphone jack speaker. The problem i'm having is that when I turn my sound up the tablet will start to skip and then turn the volume down real low (from like 10 to 5). I don't understand why it's doing this so if I could get some help I would really appreciate it.

Wed, 08 Jul 2020 19:04:15 -0700

Has anyone managed to work out how to hook up a UART for debugging? The K1 chip has four UARTS; I’d expect at least one of them to be brought out somewhere on the motherboard, but I can’t find it.
