Nvidia Shield Tablet Shutdown

[CzechsMix]

I was using it fine, then put it onto sleep. I come back about 40 minutes later to see that it's off, and when I try to reboot it, it shuts down almost instantly after coming to the lock screen.

Is it plugged in?

Try holding the power button and the volume down button (or if that makes it start up regularly, volume up button) and you should come to a different screen. Press the clear cache option (you navigate with the volume up and down button and select what you want with the volume button) and I think after that it restarts by itself (otherwise choose the reboot option in that menu) and that might fix it.

Someone had a similar (like exact same) issue with their tablet and when I did this, it fixed it.

Good idea I didn't think of that

When I tried this, there was no clear cache option. I have Continue, Fastboot Protocol, Recovery mode, Restart and Poweroff.

Maybe I just got the name wrong, looking at this video the name for the action might be "Wipe cache partition"  too.

 

The device I did this on was a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 (10"), but I doubt this screen will be much different on other Android devices.

You might want to ask nvidia directly. They pulled an update recently that broke its WiFi.

Maybe if you've updated there was another issue involved.

I had contacted nvidia last night. I was reminded there was a recall on the K1 unit. Figured it was time that I do that. Issue is still not fixed however.
