[Asus Transformer TF700] stanglifemike:
I believe the Sixasis app in the Play Store states that a lot of knock off controllers wrong work. If you don't hand an official PS3 controller, it's all worth the $60 to buy one!! I use my PS3 controllers with my phones and tablets. I've got one controller that I use solely with my Note 2, as I have a GameKlip mounted on the controller. Another controller I use with my Infinity and '13 N7 FHD. I use the Sixasis pairing tool program that I have installed on my laptop to switch between my Infinity and N7 FHD. Occasionally I'll use my OTG dock that I bought for my Note 2 to switch the controller to my N7 FHD. Even better when using the HDMI port on the Infinity and hooking it up to my 55" Sony LED TV! Dead Trigger is probably my favorite, but I've also bought all of the GTA games on the Play Store, and they're all great as well!! Android gaming is sooooo much better with a PS3 controller!!! Especially when hooked to my TV! Friends will walk in and think I'm playing on my PS3 or XBOX 360, and are always shocked when I first tell them that I'm playing through my tablet :D

I highly recommend buying a HDMI to micro HDMI cable, as well as an official controller!! I'm sure Asus will continue to put a micro HDMI cable in their future tablets, so the cable a good investment! The Asus Infinity successor definitely has the micro HDMI port on it.

Off topic, but I can't wait for the New Infinity! It's gonna be a beast with the Tegra 4 and all of its other specs!!!

PS3 controller

You dont need an special app! Play an game with the PS3 controller via USB and enable the Bluetooth. After 10 minutes you can find the controller in Bluetooth settings. Connect the controller via Bluetooth and now you can play without USB kable. :o

Sorry for my english :D
[Asus Transformer TF700] nickelfritz9:
Were can you find the cheapest controller that works online do any off brands work or does it have to be a Sony one?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Carw:
In the six-axis app description I believe it says using any controller other than the original Sony controller will not work and the control mapping will start messing up and won't work correctly so yes you do need the original controller. You could also try using MOGA controllers if that's what you prefer but I don't think it works with the six-axis app

Universal Naked Driver 0.72

** HTC One Added (HTC phones are pretty much future proof with my driver)

** Google Nexus 4 Added

32 & 64 Bit Windows 8 / 7 / Vista / XP - Attached to this post!

MD5: 5B9EA9C73066E8F655D14BBA8318C176

I am happy to release my Universal Naked Driver. This is to allow ADB, Fastboot & APX interfaces to work without installing any package much less multiples packages for users with multiple devices. Yes you can just install them and uninstall right away but why bother?

I was annoyed that I couldnt use my Transformer Prime and Galaxy Nexus without having versions and packages trip over each other. My previous post for the Sensation & Galaxy Nexus was helpful so I thought I would bring to XDA the newest Android driver available from source (which they call 4.0) and make it start talking.

Warning: Uninstall any previous driver package's you may have installed and also manually remove drivers by attaching your phone and going to Windows device manager and right click the entry for your phone and select "Uninstall" on the next prompt make sure to select "Delete the driver software for this device" then hit OK and reboot before installing these drivers

Google Nexus Devices ADB & Fastboot
Samsung Devices ADB & Fastboot
Asus Devices ADB, Fastboot & APX
HTC Devices ADB & Fastboot

Thank you very much! I just used your drivers and successfully unlocked my bootloader on my Nvidia Shield!
[Shield Android Development] 1wayjonny:
You are welcome, glad to know it making things easier.

I will make an auto root batch job once a recovery is made for the device. Shouldn't be too long...
[Shield Android Development] agrabren:
I used to have one (TWRP) but because touch will be much harder (or impossible) on this device, TWRP isn't a viable recovery for SHIELD. Instead, it looks like we'll need to use CWM, the dpad, and the A and B buttons. :)
[Shield Android Development] AndrewNeo:
What's wrong with the touchscreen on the device? Or did you not know it had a multitouch screen? (I can't imagine a modern Android implementation without one, ick)
[Shield Android Development] PR0XIDIAN:
Nothing is wrong with the touchscreen, but its awkward to use when you have the controller attached to the screen. I'm very scared about the modding community for this device. It looks like the streaming might be broken by custom roms. That being said, I really want to root and put a custom rom on mine. We'll have to see how popular it gets here in the community.
[Shield Android Development] agrabren:
The issue with the touchscreen is the driver. While it runs great in Android, it doesn't work in recovery, making a touch-based recovery a nightmare. Believe me, I already tried for a few days. I'm sure with enough time, I could get it working, but I didn't want to invest that much time with all the other things on my plate at the moment. I just don't expect recovery to come out this week with touch. :)

Thanks for the video, I was testing something for Nvidia today and did 10 re-install without the SSD RAID 0 i have and it was killing me.

Once you have SSD you cant go back and yes daughters are LOUD! I have one ... =)

I will probably post the video in the OP of all my UNDriver threads.
[Shield Android Development] wwjoshdew:
haha. She's a trip though. Thanks a lot dude, you don't see to many "screen captures" that show the computer rebooting and everything! lol
[Shield Android Development] Evo_Shift:
Ok I'm clearly doing something wrong. I need to reinstall the fastboot driver. I had it working properly before but need to install them on a different computer.

I plug the shield in and Windows auto installs a driver. The device is identified as the SHIELD but it's an adb driver (but doesn't allow me to send fastboot commands). When I try to update the driver it says it is up to date. If I uninstall that adb driver that gets auto installed by Windows and try to navigate to the universal driver folder and click one of the inf files in there windows says it isn't a compatible and to make sure it is for an x64 system. If I browse to the i386 folder nothing comes up. I'm really getting irritated.

Is there just a normal fastboot driver somewhere that isn't a universal driver? Typically if I have a correct driver and choose "Have Disk" and browse to my driver it will install, but not this time.

I am not sure if I have a previous driver conflicting or something. I don't have like 4 Android devices I used to have any more so uninstalling those drivers isn't possible. I just don't understand why Windows can be so difficult on something so trivial.

I'm using Windows 7.
[Shield Android Development] wwjoshdew:
I had the SAME PROBLEM! I uninstalled the drivers, and chose from the list manually! Eventually you choose have disk and there is a long list of things. Find NVIDIA Fastboot from that list.
[Shield Android Development] Evo_Shift:
I swear I tried that. I think I may have unplugged my device and plugged it back in after uninstalling because I thought I couldn't find it in the device manager after I uninstalled it. I bet it was listed with a yellow exclamation point somewhere in there but I just skipped over it or something.

I wish my work computer didn't lock me out of everything so I didn't have to wait to get home to try it again...

And off topic...I wish I got those kind of speeds in your sig on Sprint. My LTE (Galaxy S3) is hardly faster than 3G in Minneapolis. Though it isn't officially launched yet.
[Shield Android Development] wwjoshdew:
HERE YOU GO [MENTION=3515272]Evo_Shift[/MENTION]! (And others having trouble running fastboot commands on their NVIDIA Shield!)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSisjVwcPbE

[MENTION=391935]1wayjonny[/MENTION], (and [MENTION=3869474]agrabren[/MENTION]) what do you think? :)
[Shield Android Development] 1wayjonny:
I have seen this many times if the driver is correct and user is having issues its usually because of the following.

A) Cable is not good, try changing a few cable and all should be well. I have even seen OEM cables give issues with fastboot for some reason on multiple devices.

B) User is trying to use a USB 3.0 port, you can replace the microsoft stack with the intel stack allowing for communication over USB 3.0 - Some other USB 3.0 chipset may have issues as well such as Astek etc.

Its important to remember that not all cables are pinned out the same. For example the Xbox 360 FREE ethernet cable only was 100mbps because they choose to save the money by only using 4 of the 8 available wires to reduce cost.

** UPDATE **

After watching the video it seems like you are forcing the driver which is OK. The driver 0.73 will pick up the shield in adb or fastboot automatically.

If its not the devices is not registering to the computer correct and I would check the cable and avoid USB 3.0 port until you work this out.

Was this a USB 3.0 port? If no go right for the cable and try 3-5 different cables.
[Shield Android Development] Evo_Shift:
I finally got it. I am pretty sure it is because of incorrect adb drivers getting auto installed on me when I plugged in the Shield. I wish you could force Windows not to autoinstall drivers when you plug something in and instead always choose your own location. Once I deleted enough of the incorrect drivers and installed the correct drivers to the SHield again it seems to work.
[Shield Android Development] wwjoshdew:
Nope. A USB 2.0 port. That first video that I made (That you said "I will probably post the video in the OP of all my UNDriver threads."), did it correctly. But for some reason, it would work JUST FINE in ADB mode, but NOT in fastboot. I couldn't get "fastboot oem unlock" to work for the life of me, until forcing it to install after choosing "have disk". After that, it worked fine. Just showing that "manual" method for people that have their Shield working find while in android, but not in fastboot. I'm not saying anyone sole person is responsible for it not working, just showing a manual way around it.
[Shield Android Development] Lord fiSh:
hmm...

I have only "Nvidia Shield" not Nvida Shield ADB in my devices Manager - adb is enabled

adb devies
List of devices attached

(none)
[Shield Android Development] themichael:
Had this issues so I installed the "manual" way and still commands wont work in fastboot

Edit: followed the video as opposed to the sceenshots above. Good to go now.
[Shield Android Development] Trooper_Max:
Is APX mode available on NVIDIA Shield? I've used APX mode before on my Notion Ink Adam (Tegra 2), but I have read that the OUYA (Tegra 3) has APX mode encrypted or something so you would have to know the key to use it.

Would be nice to have APX mode on the Shield, but probably not necessary.

~Troop
[Shield Android Development] gogul1:
this is driving me nuts

I literally at the end of my tether here with this thing I think I have tried everything.

Here is the process I used again.

Windows 7 64bit

Ok so I uninstalled the drivers in Device manager. (One called SHIELD in Portable devices and the other called SHIELD in other devices - which has a yellow triangle thingy next to it.

I restarted the PC.

Plugged Shield in.

It installed both Shield drivers again.

I deleted the Portable devices driver.

I right clicked the Other driver SHIELD.

chose update driver.

Updated the driver to the Universal Driver 0.73 folder.

Installed the new Driver.

Got it changed to Android Device Nvidia Shield ADB.

I then opened Minimal ADB and Fastboot.

Typed in adb reboot bootloader.

It booted up the Shield.

Device manager driver changed from Nvidia Shield ADB to Fastboot (and had a yellow triangle and exclamation mark next to it).

I right clicked the Fastboot driver.

Chose to install my own driver.

Clicked Have Disk.

Navigated to the Universal Driver 0.73 folder.

Chose android_winusb.inf

Clicked Ok.

Scrolled down through the list of devices it had to pick from.

Chose Nvidia Shield Fastboot.

Clicked install anyway.

Driver changed again to Nvidia Shield Fastboot in the Android devices section.

Started the thor.img boot

Shield rebooted and went back to normal android home screen (where all your apps sit etc)

Device manager now has two drivers in the android devices folder

Nvidia Shield ADB & Nvidia Shield Fastboot.

Copy and pasted the mount/system partition so I could modify it and get:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>adb shell

mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/APP /syste

m

exitmount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/APP /s

ystem

ev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/APP /system <

mount: Operation not permitted

255|shell@android:/ $

exit

The mount is not permitted....

Anyone get this or know what is wrong?
[Shield Android Development] miguelvp:
Big thanks for this!

For whatever reason the previous naked driver version worked on my work computer or maybe it did pickup my TF201 drivers but that was on Windows 7 64bit. I have a development laptop with XP 32 bits and I couldn't get it to connect via adb. But this drivers work!

Awesome job.

Now waiting for Nvidia to enable breakpoints on the Shield, I swear it did work on their previous release of the Tegra dev kit but maybe I'm confused and I was using my TF201 to step through and that was via Visual Studio 2010, but it doesn't stop on the Eclipse IDE on the Shield, tried on my Ubuntu system and same thing, can't stop on breakpoints.

They mentioned on their release that an upcoming update will enable full development support I wonder if that's for breakpoints since I can launch apps but not debug them.

Little by little we'll get there, loving my Shield!

Edit: duh, you can't set breakpoints on Eclipse without doing some things first. I guess that's why it worked on Visual Studio since it's all integrated. I found how to debug native code on Eclipse so all is good.
[Shield Android Development] Bubleman77:
Driver installation with Win7 x64

I followed previous instructions and never succeed installing the drivers.

So I started to make a few mods here and there and here's what succeed for me :

1) First, the only way to suceed at this (for me at least) is to reboot Shield and let it

wait in bootloader mode

(press back+home, and tap Shield buttons) and connect it to PC with USB cable

2) Then on PC go to Windows Device Manager /Right click, select update driver /Browse my computer.... /Let me pick from a list.... /Show all device (do not select anything) and press Next /Have Disk / Browse to driver location /Select Android_winusb.inf /Scroll down to Nvidia Shield ADB/Next.

3) Go through "Driver not signed" ...Install anyway...

Now I see a new item "Android Device/ Nvidia Shield ADB" in Device Manager

(I hope it helps others).

[Shield Android Development] aDigitalPhantom:
1ST See end of post

2ND USB3 is fully backwards compatible, if you plug a USB1/2 Device into a USB3 port the extra pins added for USB3 are unused. This applies to both the PC, and device.

3RD The free XBOX360 Ethernet cable did only use 2 twisted pairs (I agree that cost is the factor), but it will work with in place of any other Ethernet cable with the restriction that both devices you plug it into support half-duplex.

I see this being reason for these driver issues not cables.

From NVIDIA's driver.

Hello, i updated to v59 and since the root was removed afterwards, i wanted to reroot. Sadly, it seems that this driver doesn't work with the latest firmware. Can anyone confirm this?

My problem is, that there will no drivers for fastboot installed. Shield ADB works fine (in the hardwaremanager). Bevor updating the shield everything worked.

BTW, for updating i had to remove CWM, because the updating process aborted if i don't.

Edit: I fixed it by my self. When in the bootloader chose update driver in the Windows hardwaremanager. Then i selected chose from list (dont't know how exactly how it is named in english) then i chose android phone->shield fasboot. Et voila.

[Shield Android Development] 1wayjonny:
Hello,

Thanks for the update looks like Nvidia released a driver with another unique code which was not available when I grabbed the information. This is small update to add this device code.

As for the USB 3.0 thing I was not just talking about the cable/extra pins, when plugged into a USB 3.0 the software stack in Windows is different - quick google search just to highlight the issue

https://www.google.com/search?q=usb+3.0+adb&oq=usb+3
[Shield Android Development] roustabout:
I'm using these drivers with success on the HP Slate 8 Pro.

I've been able to root (using the dodgy Chinese tool because I only just got fastboot mode working) On my device fastboot requires that I give the commands using -i 0x350 to specify HP as the vendor.

fastboot -i 0x03F0 oem unlock offers an unlock and wipe, which I will do once I've backed up my current system state.

Thanks much for the T4 work - it's wonderful to see it applicable to the HP.

[Shield Android Development] Duckers McQuack:
Ok, i found the shield and tried to manually update it from a file, but it says it's already updated, does that mean the naked drivers already is instaled then?
[Shield Android Development] twistedumbrella:
It's possible if it's telling you the driver is already there that it did install already. It's also possible Windows thinks it's got the right drivers and is flipping you off.

The best way to decide is see if it connects. You could always remove the one listed and do add hardware to manually pick the driver without having anything already there. That shouldn't be necessary unless it isn't working.
