  1.  Hmmmm. Trying to quote the USB post here but something seems to be screwed up with the formatting of it. Had it a lot with quotes just lately, especially with Tapatalk, and trying to sort it out on a touch device is such a bitch I just give up.  
    Out of interest, what USB storage option are you using? I've been having a read through about all the Nvidia recommended USB thumb drives folks are using but finding they are getting hot and/or getting ejected by the device. Consensus seems to be that, recommended or not, the thumb drives are just not up to getting the activity they get off of a Shield and can't cope. Much as I'd prefer there not to be yet ANOTHER box around I'm thinking of going with something like a small 500GB Seagate Back Up Plus at around 1,600. I've always found them reliable and they're not far off the price of the 128/256 thumb drives anyway. They'd sure be able to take the use they'd get too, being full blown HDDs. I was even looking at a 256 GB SSD in a USB 3 Enclosure but I'm thinking that'd be overkill.

    Using the 128GB. Yes, its hot to the touch if you pull it out, but working as it should on my setup.

  2. I'm edging closer to purchasing the Shield.   Apparently the Minix A2-Lite air mouse works well with it. (Don't need voice commands and all that bullocks)  

    All I need is the standard film and tv apps, code and a couple of other media players… that's it.

     

    Just wish they had 3 USB ports instead of two.

     

    And I will have to side load nearly all my favourite alpacas.

     

    But otherwise looks good to go.

    I picked up a Shield on Amazon (free delivery to Sydney, collected it when visiting family and made sure to get the international charge pack, additional cost). Have not used the keyboard or mouse as it runs smoothly with the supplied controls (game & hand held). I have installed the Titanium build on Kodi and some IPTV on SPMC, sideloaded all the APKS I ever wanted, its the best box, I have come across. Nothing comes close to it on the market at the moment for speed and reliability. I have expanded the memory through using a USB port, so I know where you're coming from about having another USB port.

  3. The  problem runs  deeper  than this and starts  with the parents, many Thai kids do exactly what they want with no restraint from lazy parents, having kids is a big fulltime   job not to be taken lightly yet many deem it their right  just to pop em out


    With that logic, you no doubt got a few whacks on the head while you were growing up. Next, you will be blaming the child for enticing the actions of a paedophile.
