I have droidmote server and client up and running as well as connected except the droidmote doesn't seem to notice my Shield buttons. I can use it as a mouse and the "Music Remote" buttons work as key presses but thats it. I had it working at one point with x360ce noticing my button presses but now nothing in there. Any thoughts would be great.

UPDATE:

Fixed it by uninstalling drivers through uninstall .bat and then installing again.

UPDATE 2:

After everything is configured and setup with the droidmote I am getting choppy performance with all my games to the point they are unplayable. Is this a problem with my setup or am I missing a step from this thread to increase performance. Using Splashtop 2 for Android as I cant seem to find a recent version of THD through Google and I have no device compatible with it to strip it from and sideload that way.
[Shield General] CYGNUZY:
I have been using this for months and absolutely love it, just one question, has the "SELECT" button been fixed yet, can it be used in games??

Also is there any way to hide the ugly "^" button that appears on top of the screen of SplashTop?

Thanks

[Shield General] John6670:
I'm having an issue installing droidmote drivers for windows. PLEASE HELLLP!

- I have a Windows 8 Laptop with Classic shell installed

- I've tried BOTH the windows 7 method AND the windows 8 method, still comes up with the same issue.

For the windows 7 option:

bcdedit.exe -set loadoptions DDISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS

bcdedit.exe -set TESTSIGNING ON

So these worked, and i managed to disable the driver signature verification.

-So then I went to "Droidmote - win-drivers", went into x64,

- Pressed shift to open the coomand window in that folder , and put in uninstall.batbat

- It comes up with a message saying "no devices were removed". um okay, so I tried putting in "install", to which it states "devcon failed"

Okay, so that method didn't work, so i tried the windows 8 method

- everything is going okay until I put in "install" in the command section. And to which it says, again, devcon failed.

So , despite putting in install, it's not installing at all! Despite trying both methods, neither seems to be working for me. Why? What am I doing wrong?
[Shield General] nielo360:
you dont need to put uninstall.bat, just install.bat
[Shield General] John6670:
Just tried that, it still says "devcon failed". Here is what i'll do. I'll show with pics, with im doing so you can see if i'm doing anything wrong in particular. As I said, I already disabled driver enforcement and did the test signing thing. , so.

Windows 8, 64 LAPTOP.

1. I'm in Droidmote Win Drivers

http://i.imgur.com/EPItwC4.png?1

2. I click on x64, since my laptop is 64 bit, and not 32 bit.

http://i.imgur.com/Lx9nx7T.png?1

3. Open a command window in that section. Using Shift+Right click

http://i.imgur.com/DGq4xoi.png?1

4. I put in "install" or "install.bat" in the command window. It says devcon failed

http://i.imgur.com/Wm6iV3S.png?1

Okay, so what about "running as administrator" I go to cmd.exe, and run it as admin.

http://i.imgur.com/5xIbzj8.png?1

After the system32 bit, I put in "C:\Users\john\Desktop\droidmote-win-drivers\x64\install"

To which it says "devcon is not recognizable"

http://i.imgur.com/AQ18KvR.png?1

So yeah, i'm at a loss for words. I REALLY REALLY REALLY want this to get working. I managed to get splashtop thd working, and the streaming works fine.from what i've heard of droidmote, it's the most effective way. of using your shield controls outside of nvidia's gamestream. So I plead that you hopefully see and point out what i did wrong in the process.

EDIT: OKAY, NOW I SEE WHAT I DID WRONG. I'll update this post in a bit.
[Shield General] John6670:
Hey TC, some good news and bad news

Good news: I got it working. Works fine with PCSX2

Bad news? The droidmote drivers crash Dolphin Emulator, and despite installing the driver and doing the steps you listed, if I click "play" on dolphin or even "GC controls" it crashes the emulator and my entire laptop as well. From my observations, this is only with Dolphin emulator and no others right now. Could you test Dolphin emulator and see if you come across the same issue?

2. PPSSPP. How exactly do YOU get it working with DM? Because in droidmote if i try to configure the controls, it doesn't let me. I can configure controls for PCSX2, but not PPSSPP. Basically PPSSPP doesn't recognize any of my keys, while pcsx2 and the x360 thing you listed to recognize my shield's controls.
[Shield General] nielo360:
For PPSSPP I just use the skyrim profile on splashtop thd and map the keys normally without droidmote
[Shield General] zGeiGeR:
Hi so ive been reading this forum and want to do this with my nvidia shield really badly could someone make a step by step video or something im not really understanding the step by step proccess. i cant find the apk file is that so you dont have to buy splash top thd gamepad you get it for free? also i dont understand if your using shield why you have to setup and xbox 360 controller sorry for being such a newbie but if someone could just write a step by step with links to the downloads and an easy description it would be much appreciated :D
[Shield General] nielo360:
1. now u dont need anything but to download splashtop gamepad THD... from where i cant tell you as its illegal since Nvidia will never allow them to be on the shield.

2.Download splashtop streamer on your pc, and install splastop gamepad driver, (on the first page top post.)

3.run splashtop gamepad thd on ur device, choose gamepad mode anyone is fine, play with full 360 controls as game will detect your device as a controller

4. why? because your games will not recognize your shield as a game controller with splashtop unless you do this, and you will have terrible broken controls
[Shield General] John6670:
Hey TC< I got it to work great! This is awesome. Finally able to use the L2/R2 type buttons, and get rid of the on screen virtual controls on splashtop

However, I do have a question. Have you been able to get this working with PPSSPP via streaming? PPSSPP doesn't seem to be recognizing any of my Nvidia Shield's controls now that i've updated to the latest splashtop. however, i was wondering if it's just an issue with me, or if you've had the same problem?
[Shield General] nerdstaz:
I am in dire need of help. This thing is driving me bananas! I want to use Splashtop to play games - but I cannot for the life of me get it to work in full screen....

I have tried everything you can find by Googling. I have tried registry changes, different drivers, different versions, disabling SLI, rebooting, disabling extra displays, and I even kicked it once!

NVidia optimized is working fine.

My PC is running Windows 8.1 with 780 GTX SLI. I believe that is all that is important for this."Splashtop Streamer does not support direct screen access.." is the error I get.

If someone can help me get this working I will be MORE than glad to buy you a beer or 2 via PayPal. I really just want to get this working!

I appreciate any help you can give!
[Shield General] nielo360:
Disable SLI, make sure your streamer on the pc is updated to the latest version, I am on windows 8, gtx 650 it does fullscreen fine, make sure you have the latest nvidia drivers, not beta ones.Also be sure you are using splashtop gamepad THD
[Shield General] nielo360:
The latest version of splashtop gamepad disabled the regular controls on shield :( (you cant map WASD to stick like before) now you can only use gamepad mode. Best bet is to use Kainy for that, its a bit tricky but does work extremely well once you get a hang of it.

On a side note kainy dev told me he will be adding 360 controller support (xinput:)) in the coming version so we can have a fully supported streamer on the shield with mapable controls
[Shield General] nerdstaz:
Yea, I have already tried all of that. Using the latest version of splashtop gamepad. I get the same results from my Nexus 7.

I tried Disabling SLI, 1 monitor, physically removing a graphics card, latest official drivers, latest beta drivers, even an old revision splashtop FAQs mention (317 something)...I also tried this on my Sager Laptop that has SLI 780m's with Windows 7 - tried similar steps except for the physical removal - and still no full screen
[Shield General] Character Zero:
Having a little trouble with this new method. I installed the driver and I am not sure what profile to use. Skryrim, Diablo, PES, etc. None seem to be the Xbox 360 mapping needed for the Shield. Am I doing something wrong here?

For some reason the face buttons are being interpreted as the directional buttons. Something is not right.

I followed the instructions:

Installed the "install_driver64.bat"

Restarted the Streamer

Loaded up Splashtop THD on the Shield

Switched to Gamepad mode

It loads up a profile (like Diablo 3)

But when I start a game like Metal Gear Rising - The controls are not right. Shouldn't it detect the gamepad?

I do have the 360 controller drivers. I can use my wireless 360 controller directly with the Laptop.
[Shield General] nielo360:
use latest version of splashtop gamead thd, Make sure you installed the driver by right clicking in Admin mode otherwise it wont work. Use skyrim profile or any it doesn't matter. Try it other games first.
[Shield General] Character Zero:
Yeah I don't have the latest THD apk.
[Shield General] Failrunner:
splashtop just makes my shield freeze.
[Shield General] Character Zero:
Once I got the newest Splashtop THD it works great (bought it on my Nexus 7 then had to hunt down the install apk, so I did pay for it). Some hicups here and there. Just played a few games of Titanfall. Looks amazing on the Shield!
[Shield General] daddylonglegs:
Trying to use Splashtop THD and the instructions in the OP, but I am unable to get the controller to do anything. I get my games to stream, but the NVidia Shield does not do any button presses?

I am trying to play Braid, most notably. The game only seems to respond to virtual joysticks overlaying the screen which defeats the whole point of the Shield.

Is it because installdriver64.bat did not work for me? That constantly hard-locks my PC! I uninstalled it and did installdriver.bat instead, and it said "installed successful". Is that why it won't work for me?

Another annoying thing is that any time I close the lid on the Shield, Splashtop never lets me connect again because it claims another session is already connected!

Any help would be really appreciated!
[Shield General] nerdstaz:
I am still completely frustrated with this. Following instructions and trying everything posted on any forum Google can lead me too - I still can't get things to run in fullscreen.

Still looking for advice - thanks!
[Shield General] jcatfour:
Splashtop crashes everything

SO, it was kind of a hassle to find an apk of the NEW version of splashtop thd for the shield, however, I got a hold of one, and I also installed the newest splashtop streamer to my laptop. The previous methods never worked, and I essentially gave up, but I feel optimistic about the new splashtop, or I did at least. Splashtop thd crashes on the android as soon as I try to connect to my laptop (splashtop has unfortunately stopped working blah blah), and maybe 1 out of every 3 times I try to connect, the splashtop streamer program causes my computer to completely freeze and crashes it. I can't find help for this anywhere. Also, when trying to install the gamepad driver from a admin cmd window, the driver installing box in the bottom right ended up saying it failed. I'm once again at my wit's end. It seems I'm the only one with these issues................. :mad:
[Shield General] John6670:
It's weird, but i noticed that with the updated Splashtop THD, that emulators such as PCSX2 and Dolphin work great in Full screen

but in regards to PC games, it has that annoying "splashtop streamer doesn't support full screen" or something like that.
[Shield General] Character Zero:
Yeah for Metal Gear Rising I don't get any message about full screen. But for the Titanfall beta it gave me that error. I went in an changed it to windowed. When I exited out and restarted the game even though it was set to Windowed in the settings, it was full screen on the Shield.
[Shield General] nerdstaz:
I tried so many things and FINALLY got it to work. I tried disabling my second monitor in the nVidia controls and physically unplugging. The one thing I hadnt tried was the Windows Key + P. Setting that to computer only resolved my full screen issues. No registry tweaks or strange settings required. I am using Windows 8 and have a machine with 7...both have SLI. I didnt have to disable that either. Works like a charm now! So I made a shortcut for displayswitch.exe. Now I can change this on the fly. I hope this helps you guys!
[Shield General] rylen:
I'll try this later. I hope can get this to work on my Shield.
[Shield General] John6670:

UPDATE 2 (2014) NOW KAINY SUPPORTS FULL 360 GAMEPAD CONTROLS FULLY CUSTOMIZEBLE AND NO DRIVER NEEDED

After you install kainy and get it running, go into settings and map your controls under gamepad, your pc games will automatically detect your device as a 360 controller and you can easily play your gamestream at 60fps

http://www.kainy.com/download.html
[Shield General] John6670:
Nice. i'll try it out later, but i'm glad we have options.

btw, how would you compare splashtop Thd vs Kainy? iyo, which do you prefer and why?
[Shield General] AEVortex:
Hi guys so I am planning to buy a Shield.

The question here is that my country is very atrocious with internet connections with just 4MBps (I know it's suckish). Will the games still stream smoothly with a 5GHz router and Shield? Thx for the help.
[Shield General] BenG321:
Thanks so much for the Kainy tip! I've been a long-time Splashtop user, but now I'm hooked on Kainy for gaming. So many options for image and sound quality! Launching Windows programs/games from Kainy's launcher feature is great! Works perfectly on my Ouya. Awesome how it turns ANY controller into Xbox 360 input = no more need for x360ce!

[Shield General] John6670:
What about the back button? Is the back button on the nvidia shield recognized for games when using kainy?

Example: Playing PS2, or Dolphin games which would have a "select" button. An extra button besides the start button, and the d-pad, triggers.
[Shield General] BenG321:
The buttons can be mapped within Kainy. I had to do this with my Moga and Ouya controllers to get all the buttons to function. I don't have a Shield, but you should be able to make any controller button become any XBox 360 input. Kainly has a demo you can try.

[Shield General] Deen0X:
Hi!

Is so easy to implement virtual buttons on screen for those that your gamepad don´t have.

check this:

​

in this video, i put R3 on screen, because my R3 button is broken on my GPD-G5

The most important differecne (for now) between Kainy and Splashtop THD, is that Kainy included all the set of control and buttons from gamepad to the screen layout editor, then you can map all controls on screen and play using gampead on windows, even with a normal tablet without controls.

Splashtop transform directly from android gamepad connected to windows X360 game controller emulation.

This means if you have an android gaming console with only L1 and R1, you cannot remap these buttons to another functions, and can´t map the missing buttons on the screen (the editor keep the same configuration that previous versions. there is no gamepad controls to map to the screen)

i figure in some Splashtop release they will include gamepad too. (butn i´m not sure about remaping controls. Kainy let to you to remap many physical controls to keyboard, mouse or gamepad)

nielo360, youre streaming directly from GPU to android, right? i can´t do this, because i don´t have a compatible GFX, then all my Splashtop videos are running in compatiblity mode, that is slowest than norlam (GPU direct streming) mode.

wich GFX do you have?
[Shield General] John6670:
On another note, I found the solution to the streaming PPSSPP problem.

What I did was hook the PS3 controller to my laptop.

Once you do that, you can use all the nvidia shield's controls to play games from the PC PPSSPP emulator automatically. Basically, to get it fully working and streamed on the shield(with all the controls intact), just plug in your ps3 controller.
[Shield General] ricardo85x:
I just want to use the Shield as a PC controller.

I can't find how to disable screen streaming on kainy.
[Shield General] darkphantom:
Okay, so how do I get USB tethering to work so I don't connect to Splashtop via wifi? I disabled the Wifi and enabled USB tethering on my phone (GS4) but when I connect to splashtop, it shows up under the mobile network as (satellite icon) away.
[Shield General] kss1992:
Anyone know why Kainy's 360 controller option wont work with certain games? I am using an Nvidia Shield Portable and theres games on steam that have controller support but only have keyboard and mouse logo (as if the game requires it, but controllers are supported) when you select the game. (example Left 4 Dead 2). Other games with the controller logo (example Alan Wake) work just fine its weird. ALSO im considering splashtop thd instead I've heard performance is better. If I install the driver thing I should be able to use the shield controls no problem right?

Which I thought was kinda weird.. why did they not just skip 4.3 and give us 4.4 since it was in there plans already..
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] moeahmad1995:
That means they should just skip 4.4 and go to 5.0.... It would be an endless cycle
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ingenious247:
I'm actually impressed by HTC's devotion to it's customers - yes, the camera issue is definitely a bummer, but obviously it blind sided them.. as far as everything else, this phone is hands down the BEST Android phone ever made IMO.. and continuous prompt updates? Nexus Smeckshush I'll stick with my front facing Beats Audio and crisp PPI, solid/gorgeous construction and Sense UI. For a struggling company HTC is doing an amazing job.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] megabiteg:
Have you seen their stock and internal turmoil lately? they NEED to show that devotion for customer retention, otherwise they will truly kick the bucket.

I have a suggestion for HTC or build in more functionality to Sense or scrap it and go straight to plane native Android UI and let people customize it how they wan't I think that its one of the things that is holding this phone (and all their future phones back)

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] No thanx:
How? ^
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Htein:
I highly disagree. I just think HTC would allow S-OFF via HTC Dev like they do bootloader. I just converted my TMO HTC One to GPE HTC One just so I can get the latest and greatest Kit Kit when it comes out. And guess what about 90 days from now I will be converting back to TMO HTC One Stock Kit Kat.

I personally like how Sense is setup, it is fluid and minimalistic. It now has the ability to turn off Blink Feed so it is even better. I just wish HTC would give users the option to interchangeable select which OS they want without having to go through pains of making sure you can obtain a S-OFF phone.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] megabiteg:
I can say that in the middle of our disagreement I can agree with you about Sense, because that's one of the big reasons I pick HTC over any other provider. Now I do know this: everyone, everywhere says the same thing over and over "our phones are as powerful as that computer sitting on your desk" and the sad part is that it's true! But I feel that power hasn't been harnessed yet; there are so much more I feel that are phones should do and currently don't (txt and browse the web at the same time, of for that fact do anything in combination at the same time, and so much more)

And before I get slapped with the statement "Sammy does that", I know... I just feel that with the hardware we have today (which is pretty much the same across all phones, just minor difference like amounts of memory vs screen size and so on...) it wouldn't be a purchasing factor between manufactures but a standard thing in Android....

You're always gonna get some errors with a unofficial release. I too was running kitkat on my HTC One. The problem is the playstore. A lot of apps aren't available yet.
