the only way to install it and use the driver is if you put windows 7 in "test mode" after its installed it works in test mode but if you disable test mode than the unsigned drivers don't work and everything is unusable

i wouldn't give it 0 stars. because it works but it needs to be calibrated, the wheel leans to the left a little when you have your phone completely flat and im sure hes fixing it. so 2-3 stars for effort and hoping that he improves it

I'm waiting for the Win 8 64 bit support. This app is worth to pay.

Finally! I'd been using Mungo Gamer on iOS for a while which does the same. Thanks a lot OP, very helpful.
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
Hmm, seems like everyone is having problem with the drivers on my new PC Client. I've been quite busy with work lately, which explains my inactivity (I wish I am a superhuman so i can work my job during the day and work on this app at night).

Anyways, I am currently discussing and trying to find a solution with the help of some people that have contacted me through my developer email. It seems that the installation is failing at the devcon part. I am guessing that it is still a problem with the driver signature. 64 bit windows does not allow unsigned drivers to be installed and I am trying to find a way to bypass that.

This is the most recent build of the installation file.

https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B7-jWjQDomPhTWd3V084RUcxZEU/edit?usp=sharing
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
Also, as soon as I resolve all driver issues, implement bluetooth, and add variable throttle, I will be moving this project out of beta. Any help with the drivers are welcome, since it is what I am having the most trouble with.
[Android Apps and Games] frameshift23:
From reading over the error logs it seems like you also need to include "WdfCoInstaller01009.dll" in the install folder. Devcon is looking for that file and doesn't find it so it errors out.

I found that dll online and put it in the install folder and now devcon runs successfully. I was just playing LFS with it. I already had my system in test mode from something else, but I'm fairly sure it still needs to be to install. Using Windows 7 64-bit.

Hope that helps. ((:
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
Hmm, that is very strange. I can run the setup just fine on my computer without the wdfcoinstaller. However, the new version is the first time I did not include the coinstaller (mainly because each coinstaller is 1.6mb, so it increases the installer size by quite a bit)

Let me try including it again and I will upload a new version
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
Ok, I just added back the wdfcoinstaller for both 32 bit and 64 bit.

Here it is: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B7-jWjQDomPhUUVLWHFJLWhqT28/edit?usp=sharing

can people with both 32 bit and 64 bit win 7 try it and tell me if it fixes the installation errors?
[Android Apps and Games] bunchies:
the new installer runs fine.
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
Are you running 64 bit or 32 bit?
[Android Apps and Games] frameshift23:
The new installer runs on my Win7 32-bit machine just fine. Also not in test mode and driver still worked.
[Android Apps and Games] bunchies:
Win7 64bit

Sorry, I shoulda included that lol

Edit: to the guy above me. when i install it in windows 7 (non-test mode) it runs and installs fine. the commands in cmd that you press enter through puts you into test mode so after you reboot you are in test mode, and the drivers work fine there but if you than disable test mode the drivers stop working until you go back to test mode. you can go into your device manager and see if the drivers are giving you an error or not. hidkmdf.sys and vmulti.sys aren't signed so there's no way it could work out of test mode
[Android Apps and Games] frameshift23:
I was just about to say, its because Win7 32bit doesn't require the driver to be signed. My bad.
[Android Apps and Games] bunchies:
did not know that, ive always used 64-bit
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
Hi, I am glad to hear that. So it looks like 32 bit is still good and did not break. 32 bit does not need to be in test mode. All the problem resides with the 64 bit driver signature enforcement.
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
so just to confirm, the installer now installs fine in windows 7 64 bit? unfortunately, the testmode route is the only way I can reliably allow the drivers to run on 64 bit. therefore, the restart is required after installation.
[Android Apps and Games] bunchies:
Yes win7 64bit, is installs fine than reboots into test mode.
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
Ok great, so from testing, it looks like the new installer works fine.

I've removed the need to hit enter each time and rebuilt the installer.

Here it is: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B7-jWjQDomPhYzk4SVZ6VzVUZkk/edit?usp=sharing

I will be releasing it on google play, but I'm posting it here first because google play takes several hours to update the description.
[Android Apps and Games] Hordiyevych:
Hey, I was wondering, do you know how to get past the unsigned driver issue? It keep happening to me. Also, will this work on Need For Speed Most Wanted?

EDIT:

So I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, this time looking carefully at the CMD console that opened, and I found that it kept giving me errors. Afterwards, when I clicked no for the restart prompt, another error came up saying that the extracted files were deleted. Here's a screenshot:
[Android Apps and Games] vladmir:
Thanks for app!

I have win 7 x64 and I will try this, keep up with your good work!
[Android Apps and Games] Hordiyevych:
Can anybody help me with the installer? Still doesn't work on Windows 7 64 bit.
[Android Apps and Games] SelimCangir:
How to set controller options?

I think finally i completed installling the client with the last installer on windows 8 64 bit. It says connected.

And i installed SimRaceWay. But i cant set up the controller options. Any idea how to make it right?
[Android Apps and Games] bunchies:
I don't think windows 8 is supported. If you go to the app in the playstore it says it hasn't been tested on win8 but I play dirt 3 just fine

But there should be like a keyboard and controller option available. The controller option didn't pop up till I got the controller fully working. Go into your device manager and see if the controller is giving errors or not
[Android Apps and Games] vladmir:
I can't connect the phone whit the pc, I am run win7 x64, both in same ip range, any tips?
[Android Apps and Games] bunchies:
In the virtual wheel app go the settings and change the IP to the IP displayed on the program in windows

If that doesn't work than something is blocking incoming connections but that's unlikely
[Android Apps and Games] vladmir:
I already tried that and had mess around with the permissions in firewall and nothing seems to work!
[Android Apps and Games] SelimCangir:
Thanks for the answer. I can't see any device on device manager. I searched for devices but couldnt find any. I am giving up.
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
Can you explain in more detail what the problem is? Does the PC client install fine on your computer?
[Android Apps and Games] vladmir:
No problem with the installation, reboot the pc(now in test mod) and in device manager I can see the device whitout any exclamation point. I ran the app and accept the permissions for the windows firewall, started app in the phone and configure the IP address and port that shows in pc app.

Maybe the problem are in firewall.... Perhaps in the in/out ports.
[Android Apps and Games] adomm420:
Can't install on Windows 8.
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
Hmm, that's strange. As long as both your phone and pc is on the same network (same router/switch), it should work. The only thing I can think of is the firewall, either in windows or your router.
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
Sorry, it does not support Windows 8 yet.

I need acquire windows 8 asap so I can compile drivers for it and test it out.
[Android Apps and Games] vladmir:
OK, I figure out why I can't connect... I'm using xposed module master key for the google bug's, so i deactivate and now i can connect!!!

Now i will try with nfs.

In nfs most wanted i cant configure the steering
[Android Apps and Games] LucidSwag:
I can't install the PC client on windows 7 64-bit.. I've installed .NET Framework 4.5 but when the installation of the client is finished, a prompt shows up and suggest me to reboot the machine, when I did, a text appeared in the right corner of the screen saying "Test Mode Windows7 number 7601" I've repeated the installation 2 times but still nothing... when I go to Start -> All programs -> Virtual Wheel the folder is empty .

EDIT : After downloading the other version for 64 I was able to lunch the PC client, though the status of connection is still on "Disconnected", I configured the IP & Port on my phone.
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
You can check by going to "Set Up USB Game Controllers" to see if the driver has installed correctly. VirtualWheel.exe must be running for the steering wheel to work.

EDIT: Which version of Most Wanted is it? The 2005 ver or the recent 2012 version?
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
Make sure that your firewall is allowing virtualwheel.exe to go through it on port 11111. Sometimes, it is the windows firewall, but it can also be the firewall on your router.
[Android Apps and Games] LucidSwag:
Actualy the firewall is disabled for the network i'm using with the phone, it's a kind of alternate adhoc WiFi miniport which i've learned about here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=32487126 because I don't have a regular wifi router/switch :crying: , can anyone test it please ?
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
I think that might be a problem. I have never tested this on an ad-hoc network, but I think it won't work for ad-hoc networks.

Looks like I really need to hurry up on getting bluetooth to work. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] vladmir:
I think the drives are installed property because I can set well the tootle and the brake. I tested with 2012 nfs.
[Android Apps and Games] edisile:
Is a calibration problem (I had it too). Since the phone thinks the phone is rotated all the way left/right, on the PC the axis is always at max and is like is not pressed. The app needs a calibration function...
[Android Apps and Games] LucidSwag:
Ok thanks a lot.
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
So when your phone is parallel to the ground, the steering is all the way to the right/left?

It seems like that the phone's accelerometer is orientated in a nonstandard way (internal hardware). Can you let me know what phone you tested this on?
[Android Apps and Games] bunchies:
My phone is a rezound. And the wheel tilts a little to the left when I have it flat
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
That shouldn't be a problem. Just make sure you hold your phone vertically in landscape mode, as if you are playing a game or watching a video.
[Android Apps and Games] edisile:
Galaxy S Plus (GT-i9001). I also tried to calibrate in both the phone's settings and in computer's ones...
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
Wow, that's surprising. I also have a galaxy s (not plus) and I actually developed the app using that for testing.

So you are saying that the on screen bar is not centered when you hold your phone horizontally?
[Android Apps and Games] edisile:
Yeah, but on the PC detects that the axis is all the way right.
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
So on the phone, it shows that it is centered, but on the computer, it is all the way to the right?
[Android Apps and Games] edisile:
Yes :( I tried also to calibrate it on the PC, but I didn't succeed. I was watching for some calibration softwares yesterday but the only one I found was for Logitech controllers.

My signature:
[Android Apps and Games] DANfour20:
WOW!

WOW This is such a great idea, I can't beleive no one has done this in the past (maybe they have i dont know lol)

I am however not much of a pc gamer, if you could get this working over bluetooth then i imagine it would probably work with the PS3?? (again i dont know lol)

great work man!
[Android Apps and Games] edisile:
I don't think is possible, at least with a stock firmware... It would be really difficult, though, more than doing this for Windows (which I'd kinda difficult, too).

My signature:
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
Well seems like i somewhat fixed the driver problems, but some people are having calibration problems. I'm currently having a discussion with several people that have emailed me on trying to solve some weird problems. Also, as for the android emulating a bluetooth HID device, it's possible, but currently, I think it can only emulate a mouse and a keyboard. A joystick is not possible yet (and I am not good enough to make it possible :[ )
[Android Apps and Games] vladmir:
With grid 2 I'm only able configure the left steering.

I hope you can resolve the issues because this is a great idea!

Thanks for your effort
[Android Apps and Games] killa12222:
Coolest app I've seen all day. Works great with Live for Speed. Had to calibrate using the in-game tool.
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
This is the exact problem that several people are having. I am really confused on why this is happening, since I am not able to reproduce the problem.

Also, can you check in "Set Up USB Game Controllers" and see what the X Axis shows for VMulti when you turn your phone? Does the movement on the computer correlate to your phone's movement, or is the movement ranged extremely biased to the left and is very small?

Thank you

PC app problem

first of all i love this app and concept

but till now i m unable to experience it coz my pc app always crushes when i start it.i m using windows 7 32bit (fire edition) i checked it on windows 8.1 but still same problem.plzzzzzzzzzzzzzz fix this problem,
[Android Apps and Games] edisile:
In my case, the axis is all the way right when I put my phone on the table. Then, if I rotate it 60° to the left the axis is centered. At 80° is full left. I tested this with the protractor.

My signature:
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
Hi, can you give me the problem signature when the pc client crashes? thanks
[Android Apps and Games] tincanman:
Just to make sure, on your phone, it shows the rotation correctly, but on your computer, it is messed up?

There is another person that has the exact same problem as you. I am very confused on why this is happening. I've currently narrowed it down to the driver or the linking dll between the driver and the pc program.

Virtual Wheel not detected

Hi:

First, thanks thousands times by this incredible app. Genial!! Awesome!!

But i've a problem:

- App installed and running in my GT P3113. OK

- Server installed and running in my computer. OK

- Enter in the tablet app the IP and port indicated by the VirtualWheel server. In the window of the server show 'Connected'. OK

- I start any of the driving games that I have in my computer but in the game controls section there isn't the VWheel option. Only 'Keyboard', 'Joystick' (I have a joystick connected) and 'VJoy'.

May the VJoy drivers block the VWheel drivers?

The VJoy drivers are deinstalled, but still appearing in my list of installed HID in Windows.

I have Win 7 32 bits Ultimate Edition SP1

Thanks and cheers. Sorry for my poor english. :o

Anyone has any success using virtual wheel with F1 2012?

I managed to install the PC client on my Win7 32 bit OS and Virtual Wheel show connected after I configured IP address and port

in Virtual Wheel installed on my Samsung S3.

However I can not get virtual wheel to work on the phone (Steering, Throttle as well as Brake). Only work with PC keyboard.

I try configuring MY F1 >Driving Controls with Control Profile set to "Custom" and the 3 options in Override Input Devise Type to "Steering Wheel","Gamepad", "Off" but none work. There is no input option for "Virtual Wheel"

Any advise and help would be much appreciated.

Thank You and have a nice day.

Hi,

Great to hear that its working for you.

Did you have to configure "Need for Speed Most Wanted 2012" to get Virtual Wheel working?

If so, what configuration did you use?

Did you try F1 2012? I have problem getting it to work.

TQ

First off is there really any "change for the better" from succulent build to CM10.1 nightlies? I've had a few problems with apps on succulent build unexpectedly crashing and the screen goes to a black illuminated screen randomly and I can't do anything.

If there is a benefit with CM10.1 nightlies is there a way to make SDC versions of them in an efficient way.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KetoSoi:
I see the issue come up frequently on various forums on the 'net, people with Atrix 4G's that have a lot of trouble getting their sms/txt messaging to work with car on-board systems, like Ford Sync, BMW's System, and Mazda's Bose/Navigation system, etc etc.

The systems in question support SMS/txt messaging via Bluetooth (PBAP and MAP) from various smartphones. Hardware-wise, the Atrix 4G is compatible. BT specs say it should work as well. The systems should download any texts that show up, display or read them back to you, and show you the sender/#.

I've been experimenting on both my Atrix 4G's, and it seems any blur-based ROM has a poorly/improperly implemented bluetooth stack, or possibly an incorrectly configured messaging db. I have tried regular unmodified fruitcakes for .91, .141, and 145. on both phones in several different cars.

* .91 completely fails, will not upload messages/sender at all.

* .141 and 145. will allow message uploads, but cannot upload sender properly (always comes back as 'null' on cars display ). It should be noted, that both can be temperamental downloading messaging on rare occasion.

I have also tried the .141 based Nottachtrix ROM, and the .145 based Laytveyit ELITE ROM. Both has same issues and the OEM style fruitcakes.

To further test the theory, I installed CM7. It works perfectly will all the mentioned car systems, no issues, never misses sender or message info.

At this point, I dont even know if the blur-based ROM's are fixable, but for sure in their current state the BT messaging is kind of useless. Doesnt do much good if everything that comes in is from 'null', i.e. cant tell who its really from while your driving. I have heard of some people getting these to work sometimes, but I sure couldnt.

Despite going over log-cat info during BT events, I wasnt able to pinpoint anything obvious. But that may just be me not recognizing something.

Hopefully that may give some relief to anyone whos' been frustrated by the poor (or lack of) functionality with BT messaging.

For myself, I'm using CM7 as my daily ROM now. Unfortunately it doesnt support webtop, so I keep a backup of CM7, and a Nottachtrix 2.1 build I setup, on my external SD so I can switch between them if I need to use my lapdock.

Kinda sucks, but thats pretty much what I expect from Motorola these days.... Crappy software... broken promises.

If any development/programmer type guys have any idea on the 'null' sender upload, I'm all ears.

K
