Real Racing 3 - Xbox controller x Split-screen Issue - Shield Android TV Themes and Apps

Hello all.
Today I installed this game and it ran gorgeously with stuning graphics on the shield.
I was glad to see they implemented Split-screen multiplayer and gave it a try with my Xbox Wireless Controller receiver and one extra controller.
As I result the game detected 4 players/controllers instead of 2 (nvidia controller + 1 Xbox) and the screen divided into 4. The 2 controllers worked just fine, but the other 2 players got stuck.
Did anyone have his issue with the wireless controller?
Could you please try it and post the result?
Hope we can find a way or an update fixes that. It would be awesome.
Cheers.

Split Screen??? That game support that?

I have the same issue, and I think Firemonkey have to update RR3 to select Number of players/select input device

I think so too and I've sent an email suggesting it and never got the answer back. That would definitely be the simplest solution.
I've found out where the problem is exactly. The Xbox Wireless Receiver has support for 4 controlled and will always send this information to Android regardless of the number of controls attached. Found this on a SNes emulator showing them on the config list. :highfive:
Anyhow, even if you only the shield controller connected, RR will detect more than 1 player connect and that'sa clearly a bug.

issue still remains
Hi guys
I just installed the game on my Shield TV and saw this issue.
It's 2018 and it's still not fixed????
This game used to get A LOT of updates on the phone. why didn't they fix issue??
I just opened multiplayer option out of curiosity (only have one controller) and it automatically split screen into 4.
Also, gamepad keeps connecting and disconnecting every 5 seconds.

How is GTA?

Wondering if anyone has GTA 3 and can comment on the gameplay?
I also heard the oldschool cheat codes will work on this version, but only with the adition of a keyboard ... does the keyboard dock work for this?
Gameplay is super smooth, all effects are turned on. Connecting an Xbox controller is also supported by GTA 3 with no setup required.
Haven't tried any cheats, but the keyboard arrows work, if that helps.
Love it. a blast!!!
The game is amazing! Never played it on the PC before but I have been told that everything's original (which is a god thing). You can go from mission to mission or also just drive around which is incredibly fun as well.
Perfect scenario for me: playing it on the Transformer with keyboard (+ mouse), works great and it a lot more comfortable that using the on screen controls. Most cheats from the PC also work and - although I haven't tried it- even patches work by changing files in the data folder. I just have one patch applied that improves the graphics overall (colours and details).
There's no sound for me, I assumed it was like that for everyone?
Otherwise it runs well, definitely recommend it but the lack of sound is a bummer.

Mine is smooth as butter.
Ran the GTA3 Full Effects Fix and added the Audio folder into the GTA folder.
Now I have rain, higher resolution, and other effects. Sound is enabled which allows me to switch radio stations in-game.
No lag.
I followed this guide. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1400756
Hope this helps

Can anyone confirm if its possible to do the cheats without the keyboard dock?

How do you want to enter cheats/ text without a keyboard attached? Or do you just mean the Transformer Dock? I use a Logitech keyboard and cheats work (at least most).

Sad to hear... Did you try both the keyboard mapping and touch emulation?
(I haven't gotten the touch emulation to work with any program)
I didn't try to do the keyboard yet. I will try it later tonight.

I did at first, I rebooted the tablet and it worked like a champ.
does sixaxis require root?
is it working on ICS for you guys?
i get to a loading screen and then it dumps be back to the desktop
it used to work for me on HC.

No WiFi direct in ICS?

Does anyone know if there is or will be a WiFi Direct function in ICS for our SXS?
I thought this would be supported native by Android 4?!
I am missing that..

Think of it as being like Bluetooth, but a faster way to send files to another person or device.
My Sony Bravia TV can take pictures, music or video via Wi-Fi - if I search and find the device by doing a scan. But I need to be connected to the same Wi-Fi network that the TV is.
My TV also has its own SSID, and if someone else took a photo or had a video on their phone - they could simply scan for the TV and - bam - it appears on the screen. The One X and Galaxy S III has Wi-Fi Direct, and given Sony TVs do, it seems very odd to leave it out.

WiiU Pro Controller

Hi, I've been trying for like five straight days to figure out a method to get the WiiU Pro Controller to work with my HTC One and I've had no luck. The problem is that I need a pin to enter on my phone to pair it when in reality you don't and that's the problem. I can't find a way to bypass not entering a key. I've tried everything and have failed, I'd pay to see someone to get this to work and I think this could be the place. Any help?
Same here. I am looking and will report back if I find something
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk 2
Anybody have info on this? I have had no luck with the PS3 controller or the Wii U Pro controller and would love a solution.
I don't have any experience with the WiiU Pro controller but Android 4.2 broke Wiimote support. I am running a 4.1 ROM to use a Wiimote for games. Also I used to own an HTC device and Sense wasn't compatible with Wiimotes and I had to switch to CM to use one but that was ages ago.. Food for thought.
Hey there,
I've lately been exploring the true potential of the Wii U Pro Controller. So far I have been able to pair it with PC and utilize it flawlessly with a Steam game (Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition), so I've moved on to see it's capabilities in the android world.
I've done quite a bit of research and can confirm the only way you can possibly utilize this controller up till today is with an app that specifically claims to support it. At the moment the only known ones are any of Robert Broglia's apps. He has managed to incorporate a feature called "Scan for Wiimotes/iCP/JS1" which works like magic with the Wii U Pro Controllers. I have been able to connect 4 controllers to it just by enabling the scan and pressing the "Sync" button on each controller. Unfortunately though this doesn't actually "pair" the controllers per say, it seems like it's only a very temporary connection which disappears once you press Home button or exit the app. This limits you to only SNES/GB and the other few apps he has but hey at least it's a start.
Now moving onto the actual "pairing" side of things - I have recently downloaded a number of bluetooth manager apps and joystick input apps to experiment with, and using a combination of a few, I was able to somehow pair the controller!
[See attached, noobs aren't allowed to post URLs ]
HOWEVER - unfortunately I have tried using it with a few apps (mainly N64 ones) and it seems to be totally unresponsive. Either that or perhaps I'm not using the correct Joystick button mapping apps...
Btw I'm still using 4.1.2, during my research I've noticed a lot of people on 4.2 have been unsuccessful with most of what I've mentioned above...

No, regardless of it being paired, there is not a single way I can use it, all four lights on the controller remain blinking (probably normal till an intended-for-use app instructs it to light only 1 LED), and whatever app I try to use it with, won't register or recognize any keypresses.

I assume your Android OS version is later than 4.1.2?
Supposedly this works, but you may need to attach a bluetooth dongle to your device (yes, even though it already has bluetooth built in):

uh.... i found this app in the app store recently and was curious if this would help anybody... it claims that i works with wii remotes and does work with the ps4 controller~
the reason that i cant comfirm if it works or not is because i dont own a wii u pro controller (yet lol)
i hope this helps! sorry if it doesnt
damn it aparently i cant post links yet..
anywho you can search this in the android market and it should send you to one of his apps

This might help anybody having pairing issues. My nabi 2 has an option for ''bluetooth time out'' before changing it to ''never off'' i couldn't pair my phone. Afterwards it paired effortlessly.

Hi Zulu, I think I saw someone get a bit of hate for this suggestion with your Nexus Player LolliRock ROM but is it possible to install the Leanback Launcher onto this full Android ROM and emulate most of the Android TV experience? My reason would be that I want the freedom of the full Play Store app and settings but I do like the Android TV interface for use from my couch.
Also, presumably this requires an unlocked bootloader but not root because I've been struggling to root my 16 GB model.
Thanks for your work.

Sure that you can. The leanback launcher is a stupid launcher like others but just a little more stupid because not support mouse. But you can start Android TV apps also without leanback launcher. http://www.apkmirror.com/?s=leanback+launcher&post_type=apps_post
You can start the leanback launcher also like an app if you create a shortcut like in this video https://youtu.be/NMqz8e33oq8 So when you install Android TV apps, you can have all in one bad place that is the leanback launcher. Without create a shortcut for every Android TV app. ( 10 in total )
I prferer Googl Now Launcher.
People not understand that you need just more accessibility on apps and this depend from developers.
You can control an app with a mouse, dpad or controller if a developer want this.
After that you can use Android, Android TV or also Android NOOB.
One thing is sure, Android TV is limited on purpose and you can't have all apps from Google Play.
The 320 dpi in build.prop is not compatible with many beautiful apps also if you sideload.
Every standard app is better and faster than the leanback version. Try standard youtube and leanback youtube to understand.
For me the life is too short to waste time with directional keys. I never used a classic Smart TV for this reason and all my TV are Smart TV.
For this reason i like full Android.
You think that if Android TV was better than Android I lose most of my free time to build these firmware ? I'm not so stupid.
But do not worry i appreciate and respect the requests of all
To have Youtube at 1080p and up read this post

I suggest to read also the comments. to understand really what i think.
I am very tired of the forced closures made to defend the economic interests of a few.
Many of these closures are also passed off as security but are just violations of the rules for fair competition between companies.
I hope I am not overlooking something due to lack of sleep, but am I correct in saying the nvidia game controller that came with the box doesn't work in this rom? My box isn't recognizing the controller after flashing rom, gapps, and su
After reading a little closer I see it can be made to work if connected via usb, but I much rather have it work wireless since I use the box connected to a network cable and wireless network connection doesn't pose any interference for me. Is there a way to restore the wireless controller connection?

For the controller in wireless mode: ( wired works well )
Request it to Nvidia sayng:
Please Nvidia if you sell an hardware controller, why you not publish the drivers for Android, Windows and Linux like all other companies that sell an hardware controller ? Or explain how to add it in a custom firmware ? You publish also the source code, why not publish it as closed binaries like others parts proprietary ?
In the second post you can find an alternative to use the controller in wireless mode.
It work better than native wireless mode, everyone can compare also in Nvidia Grid. ( Grid is beautiful also with my bad adsl )
And don't forget that you can use also any other standard controller ( also a 5$ chinese controller ), because the voice search capability and audio routing is possible in this firmware in many ways. The smarter way to make voice search in google now ( the full google now ) is with a webcam attached or with a bluetooth headsets. It's smarter because you can do this without nothing in your hands. Just sayng: " OK Google " + videochats in hangout and more...
Unfortunally i can't solve this for now. The only one thing that not work, but not for my incompetence.
I don't want use bad words to explain better why this behaviour. But smart people can understand.
Has anyone tried this on a shield tablet? I would assume you ca get a close experience. Also are the Nvidia apps bundled in the rom(controller, grid, game stream)

I like this ROM, but I have come across a few things that might make me go back to stock. The problem with wireless game controller not working unless tethered to the device (Not zulu99's fault), and Doom 3 will no longer run. You start it and it immediately just goes back to the home screen without any error to reference. I downloaded the stock image and am still debating as to whether I want to go back to stock or not.. I didn't say it before and I should have, but thanks for all the time and effort you have invested in this ROM.

This firmware is for Shield Console, not for Shield Tablet.
Shield hub that have also grid inside can be downloaded directly from goole play.
for game stream i can work on the nvidia proprietary apk, but i tested Screen Stream Mirroring app and it work.
You can also record your gameplay with any app for screen recording so this is not a problem.

Forgive my confusion but isn't the point of this rom to mimic the shield console on other android devices? I have the tablet and want to add the android TV experience to it and immersive mode. Wouldn't flashing this Tom accomplish that?

No i ported full Android to Shield Console, because on Android TV you are in a walled garden and you can't have all apps from google play
In Android Tv you have also by default density to 320 dpi that is not good for standard apps.
If you like immersive mode you can simply use xposed framework.
Thanks for the clarification. With that said how can I get the android TV experience with Google now search on my tablet? Is it possible?

I sideloaded the latest version of the Xfinity TV app version 3.1.0.014
The app does not support proper navigation with android tv remote as it is intended to be used on a touch interface.
You can however connect a mouse via USB OTG and use the app. I have watched around an hour of TV on the app and did not have any major issues.
It is a little buggy at times exiting and re-entering the app and I have had a force close but it is usable.
Once they update for Android TV support I will be very happy. (I am hoping they update for Android TV support. I haven't found any information to say they are for sure.)

Comcast released another app update today. Hopefully it didn't break things for you, let me know how it goes, I am thinking about getting a Nexus Player for this app. I doubt they will ever support Android TV, they would be losing $10 per month from folks who are currently renting their own comcast boxes for additional TVs.

I am not noticing any changes and it still seems to be working fine.
I have a keyboard/mouse combo connected to the Nexus Player that I use to navigate in the app which is a little clunky but does work.

has anyone figured out why the Xfinity TV app closes or how to fix this I have the newest version installed on my nexus player and on my nvidia shield and on both devices the app closes after about 10 minutes of watching a live or on demand show and goes back to the Home screen? On my fire stick the app doesn't close but I get other playback error on live channels. The TV to Go app works 100% on my correctly it never closes but it lacks a channel guide and DVR abilities so I would rather use the X1 TV app instead. any suggestions on how to get the app to stop closing back to the home screen?
as a side note for those trying to find a controller solution, I use a QQ-Tech Mini Bluetooth Keyboard W Touch pad for Android OS Windows from Amazon for about 20 bucks. I use this for all 3 of my boxes to control the Xfinity TV and TV to Go apps it works grate its about 7 inches long so about the size of a TV remote. mine is rechargeable with a light up keyboard. this will also make using Chrome and other sideloaded apps on Android TV so much easier to use.
I watched it the other day for like 2 hours and didnt have 1 issue, are you on the latest firmware on your nexus player? Also has anyone tried the update that came out today?

Understood, i refuse to get X1 because right now i pay 80 Bucks for 150 Channels + HBO and 75Megabit Internet. I don't need a DVR made by them, nor do i need anything else they deem fancy. I wouldn't have Comcast at all if i could have the option, but they are the fastest within 100 feet of my location. Lot of OTA DVR Options Exist, some are like 10-15 Years Old. (The PSX Console was a PS2 with built in DVR if that says anything). i Have a hacked Roamio i use to record stuff.

Awesome, i can confirm it does work on stock, for some reason i never tried on stock, i am now going to root it to see if droidmote works as a remote for it.
Edit: droidmote works as a mouse, but the remote functions do not work inside the xfinity app

The Xfinity TV app (not TV Go) works, but sometimes looses track of the "Home" network.
We are using a friend's login info to test it- Our 2 NP's both have M 6.0.
It will not work out of the box hardwired for channels you have not viewed before- i.e on your "previously viewed channels" list, prompts you to use your cellular data connection, but has an "allow just this time" link that will let it through a LAN.
Seems the TV (not TV Go) app keeps track of the WiFi connections and designates one a "Home".
I have renamed my 2 access points the same name, with same SSID and passwords- it worked great for a day, then started locking me out of new channels.
ES FileExplorer lets you ftp into the NP with the LAN---> Remote Manager, so I will be copying the X-TV data over and see if that works.
As a side note- I will be testing the TV Go app found here:

I found this Rii that works quite well for the NP in general, and the trackpad seems very good to me, especially double-tap, hold and swipe.

I wanted a 2.4 ghz romo, because I read many comments about BT sleeping issues.
The rest of my setup has this hub-

and this UBS to RJ-45 adapter.

All work with the NP
**Edit**
Sytanek's app mod at the link above works excellent on our stock NP with M 6.0.1
Can anyone confirm the apps still work on our NPs as of today?
I am moving and the place I am heading to doesn't have other options but Comcast... this would be great in cutting some of those "rental fees" on additional cable boxes.
I can't get Xfinity TV to work on my Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 with cyan 13.0....just buffers then returns
I need little help here. I installed the app and when i click get started it redirects to dolphin browser and when i log in i get some error message. I can't get this app working.
