I don't know what's going on ...
I always have an update to do on my Nivdia shield TV (roughly 11 mo).
My shield Tv downloads the update and try to install it .. without success (parsing error..)
And since I can't update retro x, I can't launch it.... :cry:
I had to dot he nvidia shield TV update (8.0.1....).. Maybe it's the problem ???
oh and I bought your application few months ago.

ok .... I tried 4 times.
Of course I went back to the retro X web site and download a "fresh" copy of the APK of Retro X.
I can install it, write my user's code... but ... when I wan to use a emulator like FBA for example , the program will ask to update or download some add ons.
I can download those add ons but I have all the time the same " parsing error".
And since i can't update retro X, I can't use it.
:?

I don't come very often to the forums or the web site...
I saw this post on the "blog" part :
http://www.retrox.tv/silent-oreo/

Since we had the oreo's update on nivdia shield TV (8.0.1 if my memory is correct ...) I think I have this problem !! :o
In this post, Franco spoke about a fix “Silent Oreo” ...!??
Where can I find this fix ? I'm still searching this fix on the web site ... :cry:

oups... didn't search enough.... here is my problem and a temporary solution :

Parsing error while trying to install the update or AddOns

I'm posting here too... if anyone has the same trouble ... i hope it helps....

Make sure that you uninstall all the RetroX AddOns that you will find under System Apps in the Nvidia Shield, not only the main RetroX app.
Removing only RetroX and not the AddOns may not work.

Thanks Franco. :D

Life took the best of me and I didn't find the time to uninstall properly, since the end of the last year.....
I'll let you know .....

well .. i'm coming back...
i've checked System Apps in the Nvidia Shield but I can't find anything related to Retro x or "addonretrox".
Can you give me more information ???
What's the name of the addons inside System Apps ? is it something like " retrox**addon " or addonretrox*** ?
i can see anything but I'm still blocked if i try to reinstall retrox, again.... :?

This was fixed some time ago.

The automatic update on the version that you have installed cannot do the update, but you can download RetroX again and just install it over, without uninstalling anything. That will fix it
