Geforce now which is called "Nvidia games" on android and "gamestream" are 2 different things

Geforce now streams from your steam account to your device. No pc is necessary.

"Gamestream" which is what "Moonlight" basically is uses geforce experience to stream games running natively on your pc to your device.
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] pusheax:
yes, i understand but when i open the Nvidia games for the first time it never ask me to link my steam account. And because of that, when i try to play a steam game it gives me an error.
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] Phillyrider807:
Ooo i see what u saying. I did have to update my "nvidia games" at the start so maybe try that? Other then that idk lol. Im at work now but when i get home i'll mess around with it more to see if i can help.

I might have messed something up.

I followed a guide to install Magisk Manager and set up PS4 remote play. Everything worked.

Then I looked into setting up DS4adapter to spoof my joycons in working as a PS4 controller for PS4 remote play on the switch. I used a DS4adapter guide referred from the previous guide.

Installed Riru Core, Riru - EdXposed' Module, then the Xposed Installer

I then had to reboot to take effect and now it's constantly on the LineageOS loading screen. I tried removing the modules file in TWRP but it's not there in /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/conf/. I tried to ADB sideload the xposed uninstaller zip but the ADB feature in TWRP doesn't seem to work. I tried pressing buttons to disable Xposed temporarily during bootup but nothing worked. I have no idea what to do except having to reinstall LineageOS. Please help, thank you.

Great work!

Hey guys,

I can't thank you enough for the amazing work that you did taking into account that it's a first release, it's like getting a brand new powerful device, a dream which become true.

I tried first with 32GB sd but got a lot of issues, and I switched to Samsung 128GB U1 with langer hans advise everything went Ok.

I have a small issue, I can't get Netflix to work on it, I tried many apk but no one works, did someone figure out how to do it? If so, please share.

Also, is there a way to get Geforce Now to work if you just did a new subscription?

Thx in advance.
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] Phillyrider807:
Yea i installed the full one. I set mines up before any of the video tutorials came out so i didnt even know about the different options. That could very well be the reason as well. Worth checking out.

Just FYI, I had major issues using Dolphin when I had HALauncher set as the default. Maybe I was doing something wrong but the app would immediately crash and then continuously pop up a message stating the app stopped working even after I force stopped Dolphin. Went back to the stock launcher and it loads fine through there. Just wanted to put it out there in case anyone else was having issues with Dolphin using HALauncher
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] Phillyrider807:
Is there any launcher i should install that makes navigating the home menu a little smoother? Once inside a app it runs very well but closing a app and opening another one and even typing feels very janky right now with the stock launcher.

Also is it me or is the speakers on the switch very low? Watched a couple tv shows last night on netflix and i could barely hear anything until i hooked it up to my bluetooth speaker. Anyway to raise the volume of the switch speakers?

But yea all in all amazing release for just a beta. Can only imagine how good this can become in a couple months.
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] GuitarXxX:
Nova Launcher it is a good option.

I always used on Android and it's very fast and customizable.

I flashed joyconfix but still cant play with analog sticks :(
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] Deathfissure:
So far a nonstarter for me :(

I've gone through the set up correctly using a Patriot 128gb card and can't get through the setup in android

It boots into setup but has constant processes crashing, constant restarts into the boot logo and even if I get as far as putting in my wifi password I've had it connect but then not continue setup before it just starts over booting again

I've wiped factory reset in TWRP several times and mount system and vendor (and without vendor) before flashing regular gapps and tried nano gapps. I wipe dalvik and cache after every flash of these and I still can't get it to work :crying:
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] TheMadHeader:
The touchscreen support has some problems right now, no doubt it will be fixed.

Speaker volume can be adjusted with the Volume up and down button on the top of the Switch.
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] whoamanwtf:
Did you remember to mount system in twrp again before you flash the fix? If not do it again and it will work.
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] TheMadHeader:
Have you pressed the small grey sync buttons on the inside edge of the Joycons (where they slide into the rails on the Switch) once you've initiated the pairing in Android? The LEDs should then continuously flash. Once the Joycons have paired the LEDs will continue to flash, that's presumably a bug as once paired they should stop flashing.
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] CoNQueRa:
At the moment think this too :) I made it and it works now. I didnt know everytime I must mount this :(
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] manic020:
Thanks for all your guys' hard work on this project. Being able to stream my PC games to my Switch while I lay in bed is practically a dream come true. Keep up the good work :good:

Sorry if you've been bombarded with this already, but I tried using the new zip, and while L3 and R3 do indeed work, the sticks are still not actually being seen as analog. For example, in GTA San Andreas I can't make CJ walk with the JoyCon, only run, but he has full range of movement with my Xbox controller. It also only appears to register movement in only 8 directions. The same applies to the right stick as well, so trying to aim while shooting is pretty difficult.

Is anyone else having an issue with Nvidia games ? just installed it,opened the app and it kicks me out everytime saying "NVIDIA Games has stopped" so i go to google apps to update it and it says this app is no longer compatible with this device.Contact the developers for more info. Is there a fix or have i just done something wrong ? thanks
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] manic020:
Did you flash the Shield-ifier zip? If not, go back and do that and try again. Otherwise I would suggest just using Moonlight instead, it's been working way better for me.

---------- Post added at 04:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:19 PM ----------

You are correct. The article is wrong. There should be no way for Nintendo to detect that you've been running Android. I was even using EmuNAND for weeks before this and I still haven't been banned.
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] CoNQueRa:
I have same problem too :(
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] razers7t8:
I just had to comment that the switch isn't half bad as an android tablet. I've mostly been using it in portrait mode and it's pretty comfy to hold and to type on with SwiftKey. The formfactor is on point. Performance is OK, not great, but OK, though that could be due to the fact that this is a beta or that it's running off an SD card. Also Nvida games has been working great for me. All the included games work, so I was just playing sonic all stars transformed and it worked flawlessly. I used my Xbox One Bluetooth controller to play it, and haven't tried the joycons at all because based on what I've been reading, they're a nightmare to use right now. I'll try the joycons in another build when support for them becomes more stable. But yeah, using the switch in portrait mode with no joycons attached feels really comfortable and isn't half bad as a tablet. Color me impressed. The only thing I'd say is that text is a bit small to read in chrome. I dunno what resolution it's displaying at, but I'd like if everything on screen could just get a little bit bigger.

Anyone able to play the Geforce Now games in the Nvidia games app? I have flashed Shield-ifier and updated the Nvidia Games app.

I'm able to stream games from my PC fine, but the Now games try and load for 10 seconds but then I get an error like "Unable to prcoess request. Try again later". Although it appears Now is in beta so may be a problem their end.

Other than that this was surprisingly easy to get running, and works great. Nicely done guys :)

For those who want to transfer big data to the sd card. I use "Linux File System for Windows by Paragon Software"

You have now full access to the sd. search for "\media\0\Download " .

For me is FTP just to slow.

by the way.

The Joycon fix .zip whats around. Just TWRP and install the Zip? without wipe?

This works so good for a first release! Got to play GTA for over a hour now, really awesome. To bad the casino functions are disabled through Geforce now. Looking forward to the updates.

[Edit] This is through Geforce Now, so without my desktop. Haven't tried Moonlight yet.

Game streaming from our own PCs (like Moonlight does) is working fine. It's Geforce Now games, which stream from Nvidia servers that aren't working, there's no other app alternative for that.

Seems odd alot of people are having trouble with geforce now. It worked first try for me. But i did use games in my own library I never tried any of the "free" games.

I'll be home in a couple hours and play around with it some more. See if i can answer some questions. Only thing i can think of is for "gapps" I installed the full version. Not pico or anything that i see alot of the video tutorials are recommending. I'm also only using the 32gb img on a 32gb card if that means anything.

Get the file that has the size that's equivalent to the capacity of your SD card. So if you have a 32GB card get the 32GB file. 64GB card? Use the 64GB file, etc. Note that the card will be completely overwritten once its been set up.

I've flashed the joycon fix file and i think this converted my joycons to a d-pad because that's what it is doing right now.

However i'm not sure if this was like this before so i downloaded the original files from gitlab and i will replace them and try it out.

However i think there's lot's of work until the inputs will work correctly since the joycons don't even work on android natively.

What you could try: remapping your analog sticks in the app.

This should work somehow.
[Nintendo Switch News, Guides, Discussion , Develop] JODAMON:
When i try to remap all works fine except the same... when i push left stick to the left nothing happens... is like it were damaged.... but if i go to android it works correctly...

Download the files with "2006" ; "2007" and "2009" in it´s name.

From here: https://gitlab.com/switchroot/andro...eld-common/tree/lineage-15.1-switch/keylayout

Place them to /system/usr/keylayout with a root explorer (for example total commander) or use TWRP´s file manager to replace the files.

Anyways this won´t change anything.

It´s just the same as before.

There are some lines inside the files behind "axis" (= analog sticks) "flat 1024" i think this is the reason why it is operating as an additional d-pad.

I never have remapped my input devices on android or linux, so i can´t tell you exactly what´s going on but maybe i can figure out how these files actually work.

But not now, it´s already very late.
