  • For the issue with Streaming apps failing to play, please:
  • 1. Install the ota.
  • 2. Start anyone of the streaming apps that failed to play for you.
  • 3. Restart SHIELD.
  • 4. Start the streaming app again.
  • #2 should fail and then schedule a cleanup of the corrupt secure storage files at the next reboot (#3) and then #4 should work.

A few things to note:
1. There is no way to roll back from the HotFix or anyway for that matter without following the rooting/developer images process.
2. There is no way to leave the HotFix process once you join it.
3. HotFix images are not fully certified and will not be ever. The next official release will have all certifications. The only negative side affect we've noticed from this so far is that HD Homerun DRM channels will not work with the HotFix image so if that feature is important to you, please avoid the HotFix image.
4. Plex Media Server has a bug now if you have moved your metadata to external storage during an OTA the server may not work after the OTA. This is not a bug in the OTA, it is a bug in Plex Media server and Plex is working to resolve it. If you can't afford for this to happen, please do not sign up for the HotFix.
