Einleitung

If your charging port, USB ports, ethernet port, or HDMI port on your Nvidia Shield Pro Android TV are not working properly, use this guide to help remove/replace your I/O board on your Nvidia Shield Pro. The only tools required for this procedure are the T6 Torx screwdriver and the plastic opening tool. Some steps may be difficult due to the cluster of screws and wires to be located, but do not fret, this guide will help you locate all the parts you need to remove.

    • Flip to the back side of your Nvidia Shield Pro Android TV.

    • To open the bottom cover of the Nvidia Shield, start from the corner and slide your plastic opening tool across the gap.

    • If using a plastic opening tool to open the bottom cover is difficult, try using a metal spudger.

    • Remove the two pieces of adhesives found at the top and the bottom side of the hard drive.

    • Put the two adhesives aside. Make sure to keep them flat so that you can put them back on after.

    • Next to the empty socket where the black wires were attached to the I/O board (refer back to Step 2), detach the plastic strap from the I/O board by pushing the strap away from the socket using your finger.

    These are horrible, potentially damaging instructions. DO NOT try removing the ribbon cable without unlocking the connector first. Gently lift the black, plastic tab on the end by flipping it up toward the white ribbon cable connector. It will hinge all the way up until it moves freely. This is not pictured above, all three images show the tab in the locked position.

    Now the ribbon cable should easily slide out of the connector without any additional force. If it doesn't, the tab is likely not lifted up all the way.

    Be very careful with the ribbon cable and do not bend it. Simply applying force until it slips out as suggested above could cause irreversible damage.
