Does that Rii K25 work with the native Hulu app on the Shield? I used one of the many "mx3" style remote/keyboard/fly mouse remotes but after a recent update to the Hulu app, the "select" button (center of the d-pad) no longer works in Hulu (only have this problem in Hulu) So now I'm trying to find a similar style remote that will work with Hulu.

If I take my phone (Pixel 1 bought in December 2016) in now to get the broken mic fixed from UbreakIfix, and it's documented that they had to fix/replace the mic, would I qualify for the $350? Or no, since it's already been settled?
My mic has been intermittently broken for months, I had no idea this was a class action suit situation.

For the Firestick 4k, you need to download the newest version of the launcher hijack apk, then connect to the firestick via adb shell and issue a couple commands.
See this link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-tv/development/app-halauncher-fire-tv-t3762950
Follow the instructions in the "Additional settings you need to make after installing LauncherHijack if you have FireOS 6 or higher:" section and then Launcher Hijack should work like expected.
I did exactly this with my new Firestick 4k, and I'm now using TV Launcher when I hit the Home button.

The Postal Service is fantastic, but it's actually Gibbard and producer/DJ Dntel (Jimmy Tamborello) not M. Ward.

Do you already get the local FOX channel with the service you use to log into Fox Sports Go?
I don't get my local Fox channel via Sling, but I was able to log into the Fox Sports Go app and get some programming via my Sling credentials.

Just called and canceled TWC(via Spectrum) services this past weekend, it was the same thing for me; no attempt to offer me any deals at all. It was basically just "What day do you want to stop services?" "Okay, will you be dropping off your equipment at your local office?" "Okay, anything else I can help you with?"
The whole phone call to cancel took less than 10 minutes. I'm seeing the same thing (no offers of deals in order to retain customers) reported by a lot of TWC customers that are leaving, it seems to be a change in attitude/procedure that has come from corporate after the Spectrum takeover.

Is it possible to watch local market NFL games on the Fox Sports Go app?

How is the performance of the Roku? I signed up for the same deal, but haven't received mine yet. I've got a FireTV box and a Wetek android tv box at home that I'll be comparing it to.

Not a shill, and I have no connection to the company.
I just started using Sling a few days ago, tried in on Android phone, FireTV and Android tv box. It's been great so far. On my FireTV it was acting up one night, but it returned to near-perfect when I switched the Wifi network on my FireTV to the 5ghz signal from my router. Howver I have also heard folks say the performance was bad, so it might be a ymmv situation.
I do wish the app had a built-in user specified sleep timer. There appears to be one, but it takes a few hours for it to come up.

Thanks for the reply! Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought that style of antenna needs to be aimed at a specific source, which would be a problem for me because the 4 channels I want are coming from 2 different directions. Will I still get reception from the tower to the northwest (NBC) with that antenna?

What phone are you using? Sometimes specific phones will have compatibility problems with DS4 controller.

Ah, I hadn't looked at the price. For some reason it fluctuates a lot for both the PS4 and Xbox1 controller clips. I'd seen the PS4 go from over $40 to under $20 before I bought it.
Another option is the selection of 3d printed clips from utor case. But, those aren't as compact, and are made to only fit a specific phone model, rather than being universal. Check them out too.

Nyko Smart Clip. They make one for PS4 controllers and one for Xbox1 controllers. I have the PS4 version, it's sturdy, and the "jaws" open large enough to even hold my Amazon Fire tablet.

I'm looking to switch from Spectrum to AT&t Fiber for the same reasons you did. Which speed do you have, that comes to $70/mo total? Also, do you mind me asking where you live (to get an idea of how much my taxes/fees would be)?
LzeroKI
Check out the Nyko Smart Clip. They make one for PS4 conrollers and one for Xbox 1 Controllers. I have the PS4 controller version and it works great, holds my phone just fine, and the jaws of the clamp even extend large enough to hold my Fire tablet.
There is also Utor Case, which is was the other reply to your comment is talking about.

"and about the PSP emulation, let's be honest, there's not one single game in the entire console's library that plays decently in anything but very high-spec devices - and even then, you'll probably get stuttering sound anyway, to the point where you'll prefer to mute it"
While I won't disagree with your statement regarding high spec devices (I use a Pixel XL for Android Emulation) I have no sound problems at all while playing Soul Calibur via PSP on my phone at 5x rendered resolution and native display resolution. Plays great, to be honest; again, to be fair, this is on a fairly new "flagship" device.
If OP doesn't have a new enough handset to run PSP, Soul Calibur via Reicast is a great option.

Been with TWC at my current house for 3 years. Over the last year, my service cost went from $99 to $120 (actual TWC 24 month promotion ended), then over the next few months as the Spectrum merger came into effect, the cost rose to $180/month.
I got in touch with customer service to inquire what my bill would be for just internet alone (also have TV) and was told $80/month. But they could offer me a "great deal on Spectrum Internet": $65/month for half the internet speed I get now. Yeah, no thanks. AT&T Fiber, here I come.

This will get buried, but that game is why me and my friend referred to 'left stick move and right stick(c buttons) look' as "Turok controls" while playing FPS games of that generation.
LzeroKI
Yes, that's what I have to do. Restart, select next level from the menus.
Actually, now that I'm used to the bug, I typically select the "Quit" option at the mission complete screen, rather than the "Continue to next level" option. Then just select the next level via the menus.
LzeroKI
I would LOVE to hear if there's a fix for this. Perfect Dark is my favorite N64 game by far.
This bug doesn't make the game "unplayble" by any means, but if there's a simple fix, it would be nice.
LzeroKI
Gotcha. I'll pick up that cable myself and try it out. Thanks for the response!
Hmm, I was still having that problem as of last night. But, I haven't updated my Shield to Pie yet, so I'll try that first.
I had the same problem with Hulu and 3rd party remotes on my FireTV but an app update must have fixed it because the problem went away on my Fire devices. If all else fails, I'll give the Rii device a try.
