Hi guys, I write this post looking for who does use Daydream Apps on "not supported" devices .
I have an Xperia Z2 and after purchasing a VR (initially for cardboard) viewer and a Virtoba S1 (Daydream Controller) I have tried to run the Daydram application without got good results.
Basically, the daydream app normally opens only if I do not modify the handheld_core_hardware.xml file (in this way i can not use the controller with daydream apps ).
If I modify the handheld_core_hardware.xml file instead, I can hook up the controller to the daydream app, but when you start the VR mode, the app closes, or check the error: "The app is blocked.
I've tried with several ROMs (Lineage, Carbon, and Resurrection Remix), do you have any advice?
Has anyone with other devices had similar problems?
I can only use just one game (Gravity Pull)

hey guys,
the qickremote app on my d620r (sw official 5.0.2 V20a-EUR-XX) is rather limited. the only things it allows you to control are tv, blue-ray, and dvd.
however, i have seen screenshots from other lg phones (for example g2) which show much more functionality (like controlling a set-top box, audio, etc., and even an option "universal remote", whatever it is).
i have tried installing other remote control apps from the play store, but none of them seem to work for the g2 mini.
i also tried to install the apks from the g2 and g3, also without any results.
so here come my questions:
has anyone more functionality in their quickremote app than i do?
has anyone managed somehow to port this app from another lg phone with success?
has anyone encountered a 3rd party ir remote app which actually works?
thanks in advance!
The IR blaster only supports the things you see.
Plus, it is locked to only support the stock app (Quick Remote).
Hi All,
I have a PS4 controller that I've been using between my Nexus 6 and Shield tablet using the Sixaxis Controller app. When my N6 got Marshmallow, Sixaxis stopped working and instead showed these errors when starting up
Code:
Could not load bluetooth library...
Error: Failed to configure bluetooth...
Could not load HCI library...
Some posts online said it might be because the app needed to request new permissions for api 23. I've tried decompiling, adding the permission, and recompiling with APK Studio. I also installed it as a system app. No change, still broken.
With no word from the Sixaxis dev months after 6.0's release, my question is: what would it take to write a Marshmallow-compatible Sixaxis alternative? I have some experience writing apps, but haven't touched JNI/NDK. Also, I've been doing some research on the history of Bluez vs. Bluedroid and it looks like there aren't really any equivalents to hcitool and hcidump for Bluedroid.
To clarify, the goal is only to get the controller to connect to the system. I'm not interested in the touch mapping, mouse emulation, or other extra features.
I'm interested in it too, don't know why no one ever replied. We can try to make an open sourced app.
Is there any document about the protocol used by PS3 controller? Seems like PS3 controller use some incompatible bluetooth protocol, I used Sixaxis app before, when I connected PS3 controller using BT, all other BT devices were dropped.
I am also getting this issue. No responses?
I have the same problem. any solution?
Yes please,not that I can help,but it'd be greatly appreciated.

Still nothing? It wouldn't be as bad but the native DS4 pairing mode sucks so bad on Android (Massive input delay after 30 seconds)
EDIT: Their website 404's... http://dancingpixelstudios.com/sixaxiscontroller/about.html
they are alredy working on it http://dancingpixelstudios.com/2016/02/05/migration-to-wordpress/
Love this app. I'm glad he still rocking. Google should just buy him out and implement this into their future OS... Give this man a job!
I am also having the same problem on HTC one m8 with gpe 6.0 rom.
Any news?
So far I have seen no update, but on his site he says he is working on it.
looks like there is no update for this
Is there any alternative available for this?
It' been months and still no update. Does someone know any alternative solution or app?
Is there anyone that can write an app that removes HDMI checks for Android streaming apps that don't work on eg. Android tv boxes that has an HDMI Out connection?
Eg. You decompile an app and then nthe app can search the files in the decompiled app folder for HDMI intents and help you to remove them.
Or the app could run on Android and allow you to disable certain intents for selected apps like android.intent.action.HDMI_PLUGGED or HDMI_AUDIO_PLUG
like Autostart Manager in ROM Toolbox Lite app(that don't work correctly).
On KitKat there was an app called HDMI Virtual Switch that could hide the state of an HDMI connection.
http://freaktab.com/filedata/fetch?id=545672
But on Lollipop firmware that file's value gets changed back to a 1 immediately after you save it again.
echo "0">/sys/devices/virtual/display/HDMI/state
As soon as I do this it changes, but when I open the file, it jumps back to a value of '1' and is then disabled again.
The app will need to change this file and keep it like that without Android system changing it back to '1' automatically.
Or is there another solution to solve this problem?
The app can perhaps also try to remove
Proxy and VPN checks &
ADB Checks

for HDMI checks?
I'd also like an app like this. I have fire TV and trying to run Brighthouse TV app through it won't run because of being hooked to television through HDMI. I have a brighthouse subscription just trying to get away from paying $30 a month for their boxes, remotes etc
Anyone that has any tips on disabling HDMI checks? I'm sure there are lots of talented people here and there are lots of apps with HDMI checks that just won't work on Android TV Boxes.
The DirecTV app is a good example
Use SoundAbout app from playstore u can choose default route sound from speaker, hdmi, Bluetooth etc..etc.. like control panel on windows

Hi,
I am trying to control my Android TV using my google home and my raspberry.
I can connect the TV and launch most of the apps.
But I am facing issues when I try to do more complex actions... I am fully lost in the intents and activities...
I tried to find some informations with "dumpsys window windows" but without any good result.
I would like first to change the channels on molotov (I does not work just using the keyevents)
And another project would be to launch a specific Kodi add-on (catch up TV)
Do you have any idea of how to do so ?
Thanks for your help
