The difference is that "Home" refers toa launcher that show the news from facebook directly in the loockscreen. You can acces to messages, apps or exit from the launcher with a slider that its an icon made of you profile image.....

I installed this in my TIPO, but i didnt like it........well, i don't like use launchers anyway

[Shield General] nielo360:
Iv been playing with my shield for awhile and have had an amazing experience, despite the obvious poor marketing of the product and unnecessary handicap nvidia has added in order to boost gpu sales with regards to streaming(I only buy nvidia graphic cards but it still should not be required).

The shield is the best handheld iv ever owned, I felt compelled to share my experience

1. created a virtual hotspot on my sony vaio duo 11 hd 4000 gpu(most laptops have dual band network cards built in) and connected shield. No router was necessary.(although a router would be a few frames faster)

Loaded Splastop thd gamepad

In gamepad mode you can just easily click any key on your shield and it registers on any game config menu on your pc!! that was awesome.

Played

Metro last night, loved it!

Borderlands 2, Worked Awsome! Im never going near my alienware M15x again. (used fullscaler to run games fullscreen 720p)

2 Loaded PPSSPP on my LAPTOP, streamed it to my shield!! Played Gta Liberty city, crisis core, god of war all full speed! And streamed perfect.

3. Played Fangz HD, Gangstar Vegas, Brotherhood of violence (gets better:P) all mapped with TinCore keys. Perfect experience.

Why the shield is better than my other devices in MY opinion.

a.Moga pro cannot pull any of this off due to the lag

b.My other devices could stream but needed the 360 controller to be attached to the pc

I felt compelled to say how much i love the shield so I wrote this, however Im very disappointed that Nvidia chose to force people to buy a new gpu to enjoy it when it can easily work with almost any Gpu. I have an Alienware M15x with a 560m which i did not use this time due to network issues.. however Im not sure if I want a new desktop. The hardware limitation seems artificial, still this is the best device iv owned.

My devices

xperia tablet z,iphone 5, galaxy s4 with moga pro

Ps vita, dsi

Hope splashtop THD comes to shield natively)
[Shield General] Ahodson1985:
How did you get Splashtop THD working on your shield? When I look it up in the Play store, it says it's not compatible with the Shield. Really looking to see how this works, because I want to find some way to play Steam games on my shield and miracast stream them to my TV at the same time.
[Shield General] nielo360:
you have to side load the apk file which you can find online. it works great.
[Shield General] SixSixSevenSeven:
can get PPSSPP natively on Shield, works great apparently.
[Shield General] Speedy Gonzalez:
I know how you feel about the shield it's an amazing device with infinite possibilities for example you can play from DOS to PSP emulators you can play real PC games ,Android games , watch movies ,stream movies, browse the web, chat basically this device does it all :laugh:

you should try Kainy is sometimes better than splashtop http://www.kainy.com/
[Shield General] GatesHD:
I only wish I could stick in my sim card and use it as my AIO phablet/gamingconsole. Looking into a micro usb sim modem to possibly get to work.
[Shield General] nielo360:
Im going to try kainy, it looks a bit complicated to connect, I use splashtop thd because the mouse works perfectly on it, it feels its emulating a gamepad. the other splashtop personal is deliberately broken by the company when it comes to gaming because the mouse movement is way off and in most other games the mouse movement is impossible.

forgot to mention the battery life.. it lasts for hours n hours, I can stream all day!
[Shield General] chaind:
Isn't Lag present ??

Is it almost the same lag you see (See video) & tell

I've taken a video of the same using Kainy.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=Ff61VaWzz7g&list=UUuAV7fXBHx5GpnqK29gbiYA
[Shield General] nielo360:
Streaming from a pc is way smoother, Nativly PPSSPP cant play many games properly on the shield, God of war for example.
[Shield General] SixSixSevenSeven:
Apparently there was a patch very recently which fixed god of war.
[Shield General] nielo360:
No, my lag is nothing like that even without a router, Make sure your laptop or pc has wireless N(you must have a wireless N card) enabled and you are using WPA2 encryption. (you need to use it for high speed access)

and

a. use splashtop THD, gamepad mode .. sadly you cant stream lower than 720p (so there maybe a slight lag barely noticeable)

b..Dont use the touchscreen to control games it wont work well.

c. when makeing a virtual hotspot, directly connect to your pc, do not connect to your router..
[Shield General] nielo360:
Haha yea Iv tried that it still doesnt give you the same feeling as the shield mainly because even the speakers are so good and the battery outlasts everything, but yes there is a flaw with the weight and screen size of the shield.
[Shield General] nielo360:
Iv updated ppsspp but I get 100% speed on pc when I stream to the shield. When I load it on my shield natively it runs around 60% to 65% im sure it will get there soon.
[Shield General] Speedy Gonzalez:
I just tried splashtop THD and Kainy is not even close to the nvidia streaming I didn't noticed lag in splashtop but image quality is poor same with kainy and that one lag as hell :(

there is no way to show people how much better is the nvidia streaming to the shield until they can see it in person the image is at least 90% of what you see in the computer is almost like you playing the game natively on the shield
[Shield General] nielo360:
More people need to mail splashtop to officially support the shield in the THD version, since the d-pad and left stick are pre locked to WASD
[Shield General] chaind:
I'll try out how SplashTop does

And post a video if possible soon!
[Shield General] SimoxTav:
I'll be glad to make comparison videos if someone will be able to port the Shield streaming app to other device removing the chipset check :D
[Shield General] rcarbal:
Splashtop 2 is the last version I used to stream. I will agree that the quality of the stream is very low in comparison to what I was actually on my pc.
[Shield General] nielo360:
Yes the compression quality between splastop personal and THD when hooked up nvidia gpu's is on a very noticeable level, Im not sure what they are doing with THD tegra to nvidia streaming but its got some sort of specific coding maybe someone can find out since it works with all previous gen nvidia cards.
[Shield General] Edwii:
I'd like to jump in with some newb questions:

If I download splashtop THD and combine it with Tincore, I can mimic using the shield game streaming? As in, I can play something like FFXIV from my computer to it and be able to control it properly?

THD is on sale right now 50% @ $9.99 Do I buy it even tho it isn't "compatible"?
[Shield General] nielo360:
I think you should try it first although I cant discuss how.
[Shield General] Honikou:
of course you can, what is the problem ? you have an error ?
[Shield General] Emile01:
I'm using Splashtop THD on my Shield and I can say that the stream quality seems a level higher than Splashtop Personal or Kainy, my only question is what is the best way to play in fullscreen mode? If some peoples are still wondering how to install the easiest way is simply to download the APK and installing it manually, no need rooting or anything.
[Shield General] nielo360:
http://runtimelegend.com/rep/fullscreenizer/index this is what i use to fullscreen works very well
[Shield General] zulu99:
Now that the nvidia shield was updated to android 4.3, you can play ALL windows games with the normal free Splashtop 2 Remote Desktop + DroidMote (client free and server for windows free)

Like in this video but with the controller of your shield:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTDCMRbg2Lc

If you want simulate an xbox 360 controller in your game look this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubz_hJldAM4

Is simple, connect the droidmote client to the droidmote server for windows, enable the droidmoteime, put droidmote client in background, open splashtop and play with your game.

you can download droidmote server for windows in the droidmote support forum after registration. this is the link of the server download http://www.videomap.it/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=2
[Shield General] nielo360:
OMG OMG OMG reallly!!! Iv been begging and waiting for this!!! your AWSOME!!! im gonna go through this right away! good riddance to the crap streamer.
[Shield General] zulu99:
I forget, when your shield is attached via hdmi to your tv, you can use also droidmote to play ALL android multi-touch games with touch profile and touchmouse and your preferred hardware controller, and use any app that require multitouch actions.

DroidMote server is avaiable for Android, Windows, Linux and all Linux distro on arm devices.

FIXED: triggers should be mapped as Half axis-> HAxis4 & HAxis5

ok I set up everything one issue is the triggers on the shield dont register on the 360controller emulator, everything else works fine, could you please tell me how to make it register?

tried to talk about this on nvidia forum but the thread was deleted lol.
[Shield General] zulu99:
Also the triggers should work well, tested from another shield users that help me in tests.

Well.. Before you start mapping with x360ce, you must be sure that all buttons and axis work with the standard windows tool for controller configuration. Look this video http://youtu.be/G6uJDkc0HZg?t=7m30s at position 7m30 to see which tool i'm speaking aboutt.

The triggers should be analog and move two separate axis. If in this tool the triggers works, you can use it also in mapping with x360ce assigning to left trigger and rigt trigger the correct axis number.

In x360ce, instead of default button7 and button8 for triggers, find the correct axis number. you can select half axis, inverted axis and many other configuration. The important fact is that when you use the windows standard tool in the video above, when you move all buttons and axis, you see a related action in the tool.

to use the x360ce you can see this video, but is only a start example. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubz_hJldAM4

I suggest to configure the Controller 1 and select as preset controller the Logitech Cordless Rumble Pad 2 as in the video.

you can use also other tools in windows for mapping, for example if a game not support controllers but only mouse and keyboard, i suggest to use joytokey v5.

UPDATE:

i already read your post in forums.geforce.com

FIXED: triggers should be mapped as Half axis-> HAxis4 & HAxis5

(i like smart people like you :) )

now if you want to give something to me, I'd be happy to see your gameplay on youtube of some beautiful game that can't be played with nvidia gamestream :)
[Shield General] nielo360:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09yCCfyFRPU&feature=youtu.be

this is the video I made. Nvidia is not happy about this. they deleted my thread again.
[Shield General] zulu99:
Is not important that Nvidia is not happy. DroidMote is a reality from 2 year and many developers and also company with good name shamelessly copying functionality of DroidMote already possible from two year without say thanks.

DroidMote is the result of thousand of suggestions of xda users and now of DroidMote support forum.

(you can read the old original xda thread)

I suggest another thing:

When you have an android device attached via hdmi to your TV, and you can't use the touch screen or for example you have an android hdmi stick that not have a touch screen, DroidMote is the best solution also for create touch mapping of multi-touch games.

This because you can do all from the comfort of your couch without ever stand up. The touch profiles can be easly switched on the client part and also your hardware controller can be attached to your client device and not to the device attached to your tv. This permit also to transform a cheap wired hardware controller to a wireless controller. But the best part of using the DroidMote Client, is that you can do all multi-touch actions on your remote game, you can use the keyboard and many other things that with a standard hardware mouse is not possible. Infact many games not permit the use of hardware mouse but with droidmote client you have the touchmouse and touch profiles with wich you can do all easly.

Is very easy create touch profile for droidmote like in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CW8fEwh8wlc but you can create it also with a windows tool or only with a notepad, because the touch profiles of droidmote are simple xml files very easy to understand.

Another good functionality of the droidmote touch profiles are the many configurations that you can do on your analog sticks. Infact for stick it support also relative mode with configuration of sensitivity and deadzone. (usefull to use the stick to rotate the camera at 360° with one movement) The touch profiles can be used also for new windows 8 games and future linux multi-touch games.

All multi-touch stuff works also on windows 8 and you can play with your shield also windows 8 multitouch games with droidmote touch profiles.

If you know droidmote, with droidmote you can do ALL.

http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2E8D73B9D757086B

(Last videos = newer versions. Read the date and you understand how many developer try to mimic droidmote :) )

Unfortunaly small developers can't register their inventions like Google or Apple or Samsung causes large economic costs, and why the legal battles are very expensive. But this does not mean that you can produce all this false misleading advertising.
[Shield General] georaldc:
Why does the stream on your shield look choppier than what's on your monitor? Is it running at a lower framerate.

Got to try this though. I'm guessing that's splashtop gamepad thd? Also, does the stream hold up during gaming? Using the official streaming method for the shield, I would usually get disconnected from time to time and sometimes not be able to get back again, leaving my PC with a running game at 720p
[Shield General] ricardo85x:
Hi Zulu99,

Any chances DroidMote Server to run on Mac OS X?

Thanks
[Shield General] hooby3dfx:
First off - thank you for figuring this out and posting!

I have 2 radeon 6870's in crossfire and just got a shield and didnt realize the gtx 'requirement'.

I just had limited success partially following the steps in this thread, I think maybe some updates to splashtop broke the seamless experience you had.

Note that I am starting with latest Shield update (as of this post; 1/3/2014 - 4.3/built in keymapper).

What I did:

-Sideloaded splashtop thd (latest, v 1.1.2.0) on my shield

-Installed streamer on my PC (latest, v 2.5.0.1)

Was unable to get the Shield gamepad to control anything out of the box, and I didnt want to use the shield keymapper to map the shield controls to a splashtop touchscreen profile (which would then map to keyboard keys on the PC - too much mapping)!

It sounded like for you it worked more or less like a 360 controller.

I did see this (support-splashtoppersonal.splashtop.com/entries/25600766) though and followed the instructions to install the splashtop gamepad driver on my PC.

After I did that the shield gamepad just worked (just like a 360 controller)! Was able to navigate Steam big picture mode just like its made to.

That fullscreenizer program is also essential if you have an ati/amd card: runtimelegend.com/rep/fullscreenizer/home since you can't run things true fullscreen. As mentioned you need to set games to windowed (but fullscreenizer makes up for that).

There was a fairly major glitch though with the controller which I noticed in Skyrim when you push all the way up on the analog sticks and it registers as down. That is also reported in the comments on the splashtop support link so hopefully that gets fixed.

Anything else I missed from the original suggestion? Any other tips?

Edit - had to remove links since I have a new acct

Hi there is a new method with droidmote works seamlessly with regular splashtop personal from play store use this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2506438
[Shield General] mjs2430:
My Shield is coming tomorrow... so just to be clear. You simply sideloaded splashtop thd on the shield, installed the splashtop server on your pc, and then to get the shield controller to work you just followed the instructions to get the splashtop xbox 360 controller drivers on your pc? And that was it? No set up required for the Shield controller to work with splashtop?

Thanks!
[Shield General] hooby3dfx:
Correct... but as mentioned there is an issue with the analog sticks.

If you look at the previous post nielo360 suggests another method to setup streaming.
[Shield General] mjs2430:
Thanks! Yeah I've read through that and was hoping to avoid it, seems a little more complicated but I'll give it a go tomorrow.
[Shield General] hooby3dfx:
I agree, hopefully they will fix it!
[Shield General] Jbbrack03:
Hi quick question guys,

So a new version of Splashtop THD was just posted (1.1.2.0) which adds direct support for a 360 gamepad. I'd like to sideload this on my Shield. Splashtop THD still doesn't support the Shield, so I can't just install it from the Play Store. I do want to clarify that I own this App from when I used to own a Nexus 7 (don't have the Nexus anymore).

So here's my question, how can I get this latest version of Splashtop THD on my Shield? I know how to sideload things, but I don't have any idea how to get the APK (and I'm not looking for any illegal solutions).

Any thoughts?
[Shield General] Krobz:
If you have another Android device you can install Splashtop THD on that device from the Play Store and use ES FileExplorer (which is free) to create a backup of it. You can just install the backup on your Shield :) As far as I see there's nothing illegal about this method.

Good luck!
[Shield General] LiveMChief:
As long as you paid for it, it would not be illegal to download the apk from a website for free.
[Shield General] nielo360:
I wrote to splashtop as have many others to support more devices with splashtop gamepad THD and as usual they are not bothered, they instead ask people to buy the junk and broken gamepad mode in splahtop personal which doesnt even resemble a gamepad and has 0 options. The only company I know who doesn't want people to buy its products. lol.
[Shield General] kuhne:
I installed splashtop thd on my shield and i can stream some games fine, not all as some give me some error about not supporting direct window or something. I guess its just a matter of running games in windowed mode but I also couldnt manage to use the shield's gamepad and instead got some virtual gamepad on screen.
[Shield General] mrm0rbid99:
Follow the instructions HERE. Then start playing on your shield and switch the control scheme to gamepad mode.
[Shield General] playpopo:
Are you using ATI? Splashtop is much nVidia optimized.
[Shield General] jack1275:
Do you need to be rooted

Do you need to be rooted for tincore
[Shield General] bradr00lzd00d1:
Could you possibly do a video on how to do this?
[Shield General] T-Keith:
What is the difference between thd and splash top 2? Is the host end different?
[Shield General] RiffyDivine:
So the shield talks normally to splashtop? The xbox and Ps3 controllers all send jibberish commands across normally.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idCyber:
I have problems with some games that worked flawlessly before (played 4 of months ago and now I've wanted to start playing again). Dead Trigger's touch controls freeze once in a while (very rare problem). Asphalt 7 is unplayable, the controls get stuck and I can't steer, both touch and accelerometer freeze for ~5 seconds. I was on Android 4.2.2 when they worked. Now I am on Android 4.3, I've tried the following combinations based on Android 4.3: CM 10.2 with stock kernel, Mackay rom with mackay kernel, C-Rom with mackay , devil and semaphore kernels, Slimbean with semaphore kernel and devil kernel, CyanAOPS with CyanCore kernel. I've tried OC, LiveOC, nothing seems to help. I have 0 widgets on my phone and alot of my apps are hibernated using Greenify. On all of the tested roms i can't play Asphalt 7 not even for 3 seconds ( latest version v1.1.1). Some resource hungry games can't even let me change the volume (Despicable Me, etc.) I ahve no problems playing NFS MW, Despicable Me (minion rush), Subway Surfers, Modern Combat 4 except the volume buttons not working in them, but they work when outside of those games. Anyone else is experiencing these kind of problems?

Good day,

I own a Orange M1000 now for 4 months, (Qtek 2020)

3 weeks ago I installned the Sin Merged v2.0 rom.

No problems, everything went ok and smooth.

Yesterday when I got home I have put my phone on my desk.

When I tried to start it this morning, nothing, it won't go on.

I browsed through the forums and tried a lot.

With no result .

(Hard reset won't work, can't get into bootloader, leaving SIM and battery out for a hour, charging the device with the adaptor).

The only thing I get from the device is a red light when I put in charger without the battery in the device.

I really don't know what to do now, any help would be appreciated!

*frustrated at the moment*
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Arzûkael:

Sorry, I may be stupid but it wasnt clear to me if you charged the battery in the cradle, ie battery on charge without phone.

Take the battery out, leave the phone on the desk and pop the battery only in charger. Wait 2 hours or so (minimum), now put battery in XDA and soft reset.

That worked on mine when it went mental like this.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] allen03:
thanks for your reply .

I just try and seem you are right.

the backup battery all gone and I charge the o2 without battery for an hour and the backup battery for 50% charged.

Is that the only way to charge the backup battery ?
