Hi, has anyone been able or know how to mount our archos devices to an xbox 360? I have tried plugging it in via usb and mounting but nothing happens!? I have also tried to find a program that will tether to the xbox via wifi but again no luck. Any solutions??
You can try to change the usb mode under settings on your archos
Found a solution eventually. App called Twonky on the market, using the trial version for now.but streams perfectly from my 101 to my xbox.
Hey, I'm using ICS on my touchpad and have successfully managed to get USB hosting working to a certain extent. I can use my keyboard with my touchpad with no problems at all However what I was really hoping to be able to do was get a wired xbox 360 controller working. All I get when I plug it in though is a flashing light on the controller itself, the touchpad does not seem to recognise it at all. I heard of an application on the play store called joystick center and have used their "tester" application to see if it can detect the controller. Sadly this didn't seem to work either. Anyone managed to successfully get this working? Or have any suggestions that I can try out?
Thanks for your time

i think its easier to use a wii or ps3 controller since those have bluetooth built in
I thought that might be the case. Just thought I'd ask as I have an Xbox controller lying around, so would have saved me making a new purchase!

i know if you want to use an xbox 360 controller on your pc you need to use a usb rf dongle thingy. the usb port on the touchpad isnt powered, and that is another hurdle to jump over.
The Xbox controller I have is the wired version, not the wireless. I have a USB hub that plugs into the mains so it can support things that require power. Have managed to get my keyboard (which requires power) to work perfectly with the touchpad.

I seem to recall whenever I plugged a Wired 360 controller into a PC, it needed to download some proprietary drivers from Microsoft. I can't imagine those drivers would be built into the Touchpad, so you're probably out of luck as far as that goes.
I can confirm that both PS3 controllers and Wiimotes pair just fine with it, though. Heck, I paired not just the Wiimote, but the Wiimote+Classic Controller Pro and even Wiimote+Tatsunoko vs. Capcom Arcade Stick to the device.

oh i see. that is an interesting setup with the hub. its probably just a driver issue then.
Yeah I think that must be it. Any idea if there is any software out there that could address this issue? If not, I suppose I'll have to invest in a new controller!

I don't know if this is really a driver, but the touchpad (with ICS) has some sort of config file specific to wired 360 controllers. The file can be found at: /system/usr/keylayout/ Vendor_045e_Product_028e.kl
If you poke around at the other things in that folder, it has files for other controllers too including a Logitech one and some steering wheels (heh).

Oooh well that's a start. I'll have a poke around in there and see what I can find. I love the optimistic steering wheel config files

Yeah, xbox controllers work with the touchpad, but the kernel cm9 is using doesn't have it enabled by default.
You could either recompile the kernel or just compile the necessary modules to add to your current setup.
The xbox controller actually requires two: ff-memless.ko and xpad.ko. Just stick them in /system/lib/modules once you compile them.
ff-memless.c and xpad.c are already in the tenderloin branch, so you can compile them and pop them in pretty easily. Just look in /drivers/input.

I've been doing some searching and haven't found what I'm looking for. I don't know how to compile these 2 files for the Touchpad. From what I'm reading it needs to match to the kernel. Does anyone already have the files compiled for CM9 on the touchpad and would share them?
Thanks.
I compiled a CM9 kernel today with wired Xbox 360 gamepad support. It works with the 08/19 CM9 nightly. It may work with other versions, I don't know. Please bear in mind that I am not a developer, and I haven't compiled a kernel of any kind since the last time I installed Gentoo (probably 2005 or earlier). I don't know if this kernel will blow up your Touchpad, summon demons through the speaker-hole, or end world hunger, all I know is that it worked for me, on my Touchpad, with the CM9 08/19 nightly, in John NES Lite, SNESDroid, and Trebuchet (SuperGNES Lite didn't work, it wouldn't recognize the X or Y buttons, and the Back button on the gamepad didn't work in anything I tried). I compiled the support directly into the kernel...probably not the best approach, but it was what I was able to figure out. I don't think I changed anything else in the kernel, and I didn't write any code, just ticked a few options in the make config.
Please try this at your own risk, I don't really have any idea what I am doing, and won't be responsible if bad things happen. If that doesn't scare you off (and it should, you have no idea how new this is to me!), download the attached zip file, unzip it, mount your /boot as rw and copy the uImage.Cyanogenmod.xpad file to /boot, and reboot, selecting the uImage.Cyanogenmod.xpad file in moboot when you reboot. Make sure before you do it that /boot has enough space...if it doesn't, it won't boot when you select it because it won't be fully there.
Anyone smarter than me (ie: almost everyone here) is welcome to tell me what I did wrong and how to do it better.
Has anybody compiled xpad.ko and ff-memless.ko for the Touchpad? I have been looking around and can't find anywhere else that has done this.
Regrettably I have no idea how to compile these myself, maybe I'll try giving one of those tutorials a shot. Would love to have my xbox controller working with the touchpad.

Can you explain how did you mount /boot as rw, please ? I tried different shell commands but it always say /boot is not rewritable :crying: so i can't copy the uImage.Cyanogenmod.xpad file.
Hi there,
My mother is an international airline pilot and downloads a lot of TV shows and movies to watch on her 2-3 hour breaks on her tablet. She had an Asus Transformer Prime which worked well, but it just crapped out. We got her a Nexus 9, but now when we connect it via USB, it doesn't seem to be able to transfer videos from her computer (all Windows 8.1).
We open the video's folder and the tablet's Movies folder, and when we drag the movie file onto the tablet it just displays a (/) no symbol over the cursor. Pictures transfer just fine.
So what's up with that?? Something's gotta be wrong, I know this is possible to do. We did it with her old tablet and I do it with my Nexus 7 and my phone all the time.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
-David
Have you tried rebooting (the tablet) and reinstalling drivers (on Windows 8.1)? If not please do and make sure your connection is on a USB 2.0 port. Let me know if your problem is solved/unsolved.

AirDroid is the way to go, awesome app. I had the same problem with my Nexus but gave up in the end. But AirDroid is so much easier.
Yes, if you are using a USB3.0 connector on your computer, switch to a USB2.0 connector. Also, try resetting the MTP connection by going to "Settings->Storage->USB Computer Connection" and toggling the MTP check box while the cable is plugged in.
Also do the same with "Settings->Developer Options->USB Debugging".
You may also want to follow this thread. Someone else is also having MTP troubles with win8.1

I got latest Genymotion for personal use up and running and emulate a Nexus 9 on Android 7. Works like a charm.
I now want to connect my Line6 Spider V 240HC guitar amplifier to the Android app.
So I dragged the latest APK-file of the Spider-Remote app into the emulator and successfully installed the file.
Spider-Remote is now working and I successfully logged into my account; I can change and save presets to my cloud.
The last step that isn't working, is unfortunately the most important one: I want to control the amp itself with the app, which worked great over my phone.
The emulator just won't recognize the plugged in hardware.
I read about a solution for another OTG device, which is outdated. I don't even see a mentioning of my AMP in the VirtualBox settings. http://scrumsofanarchy.com/interfacing-physical-otg-devices-to-genymotion-android-vm/
Please let my dreams come true and show Line6 the finger for dropping the desktop App with the new Spider line up.
Thanks!
I just found my „old“ iptv box from my old ISP.
After a bit of googling i found out it runs on android.
I managed to plug in a usb keyborard and mouse and was able to open the „Calendar“ app using Win+C.
I can also take screenshots using PrintScreen and go into the Android Keyboard settings. There is no nav neither a status bar.
Is there any possibility to get into the „Settings“ app so i can enable ADB and upload my own APKs?
The Box has only gotten a USB A, HDMI, Ethernet, Audio and Power Port. If there is any need, i can also upload an image of it.
Thanks in advance!
