Hi, can you tell me how to get a browser on my Nvidia Shield TV 8gb 4K media streamer? This video tutorial does work for my device.

[randisney]

Thanks for this, but I'm missing something I think. Followed all your steps, everything seemed to work fine. Got "Installation successful" at the end, but I'm not seeing it on my Shield! Do I have to restart or something?

Got as far as Easy Fire Tools add device. It does not see my device. Phone is connected to the same network and BT enabled. What am I missing?

Thanks bro, I tried so many ways, I was getting so angry with this just about to quit I found your video, it worked perfectly, good job

[saxjonz]

Thank you for making this video to help out with the cause.

[QuirkQuestMaster]

short, on point, clear instructions. thank you for the video sir. even tho I don't have shield I watched it cuz the OS is the same on my sony TV (Android TV)

[LyRiCss]

Awesome thank you! This helped me side load my Ring app to my sheild tv .👍🏽

[rnlondon]

It says transferring but nothing is actually being transferred. I tried all of my already installed apps and none are transferring over.

[monroethegreat]

The only bad thing is when it installed it look like a phone app instead of a TV App

[jaredpajama]

Is it possible to do this with a laptop instead of a phone or tablet?

[tmart]

I have followed your steps but I get message when its trying to install the app. Any ideas?

[dwgar]

IPTV Smarters pro APK will not install on any of my nvidia shield devices any idea why? Thanks

[nunyafunyuns]

Sweet! It's basically the same as firestick. I just bought a firestick which was a piece of junk imo. Sending it back, and I think I'm going with nvidia. Thanks bro.

[liamheraghty]

hi would it be possible to put the ring app on I've tried and failed a few times any help guys . many thanks

[markg]

Fantastic video nice and short everything still works, I'm sad they have remove dislike buttons makes content like this harder to find.

[tracygreen]

Hi thank you but it fails it says something about failed installer, any clue as to why?

[brendanlopes]

Hey, is there any particular reason why an app insta operation would say it's successful but can't be found anywhere on the shield even with TV launcher or anything else?

[jokernstuffshy]

Just moved to nividia from 💩 fire devices, so this is a whole new os but followed it and nothing is sideloading ?

I also tried nfl game pass as a test and it works, downside is I don't have an account with gamepass lol; cheers for the upload op :)
