Is it possible to have an Android running the Server and a Windows PC running the Client?

Then I would be able to use my PC mouse & keyboard to control my tablet.

Hi - I have trawled the thread on this but cannot seem to find an answer. I am running a Android 4.4.2 MXQ TV Box (Quad Core S805 (Cortex-A5) rooted and would like to use Droidmote. I have installed the server and client on a GN4 but cannot get them to connect. I have read a few threads about updating the uinput.ko file but my questions are:

1. Is there a specific uinput.ko that I need to download based on the architecture of the box?
2. Is there a way of checking if my uinput.ko is already installed or the correct version?

I am tired of trying to type with a remote and on screen keyboard and would like to be able to do away with a secondary remote all together. Thanks for the help in advance.

Hi,

1. Yes, but you need to fint a module which matches to your system's cpu and kernel.

2. Yes, if your device is rooted, and you have erminal installed, check in /system/vendor/modules if there is uinput.ko, then you have the module.
But is VNC doesn't work, i gave 99%% that you haven't. :(

I have checked the VNC on a noname china phone, and it worked! But that is an mtk platfrm, so uinput from this doesn't work on my A13-based device.

Gamepad2touch not responding since new client version

Hi,
I've been using the gamepad2touch functionnality for a while, but it seems that it doesn't work anymore with windows server since the new client version 4.0.0
Last time I played with it was several months ago, I don't remember which version it was.
The remote mouse works fine, though.
I've changed nothing on the server, only updated the client because there is no update on the windows server. I'm using win server v2.1.7.
Is there any chance that I can solve this or download a previous client version ?
There should be a thread somewhere for the previous versions.
Regards

Hi all I read the initial post and couldn't understand if I need the client only or both in my case. I want to control touch games running on an android box. I have a BT gamepad for that box. Do I need the server in my mobile for example? Or only the client is sufficient?

I installed the client yesterday but couldn't load the profile. Where exactly in the SDcard should I place the xml profile? Not really sure how configure it. Anyone willing to help?

Thanks

I have a question and want to report a bug. First the question, is anyway to set a key to automatically open an application in a android box (shield tv).

I noticed while using the keyboard when pressing symbols like :),') is triggering an action to write again the last term I wrote.

Any feedback on this?

    Hi Androiders.
    With your android phone, with one application called Mod Edit link removed you can control another android Phone or Tablet, a Windows pc or a Linux pc, on wich you have installed Mod Edit link removed

    DroidMote is not only a remote mouse, a remote keyboard, a remote gamepad and a remote multi touch touchpad, but it is something more.
    In fact, with the Gamepad2Touch feature allows you to use all the applications and games that were developed to support only devices with touch screen. Imagine you want remote control a game, designed for touch screen devices on your large TV Full HD, with DroidMote you can.
    Just create, in a few simple steps, a "touch profile" with the application "Touch profile Creator" that you can download in the attachment.
    Mod Edit link removed
    DroidMote is fully customizable, in the Server part you can create your own file droidmote.kl to change the default action of the keyboard keys, of the buttons and axis of the gamepad. In the Client part you can create your own "touch profile" to simulate touch events on the remote screen.

    The client and the server to connect must be or on the same local network, or connected to the internet to control remote devices over long distances.
    If you not have a wifi router, you can connect the server and the client directly (point to point) by activating the function Tethering/portable hotspot on your phone or on your tablet. Connect the phone to the tablet or the tablet to the phone. Click start on server, get the ip and put it in the client.
    You do not need bluetooth,the bluetooth is slow and cover small distances.

    DroidMote Server must be installed on the device to be controlled.
    DroidMote Client must be installed on the device controller.

    ONLY THE DEVICE WITH THE SERVER INSTALLED NEEDS TO BE ROOT.
    IN THE SERVER DEVICE , MAKE SURE YOU HAVE BUSYBOX UPDATED AND YOU HAVE THE UINPUT MODULE IN THE KERNEL LIKE MOST ANDROID DEVICES.
    Mod Edit link removed

    How to customize keyboard keys, buttons, and axes actions in DroidMote Server:
    Video Mod Edit link removed

    The folder location of droidmote.kl is /system/usr/keylayout ------> this file is for customization

    The folder location of droidmote.kcm is /system/usr/keychars

    This two files by default, in android version > 3.0, are automatically installed at first installation on the device with the server inside.

    To know which scan codes send the client you can install in the server part the free tool (Keyevent Dispaly in the android Market).

    Then follow these simple steps:

    1) connect the client to the server
    2) make sure everything works
    3) on the server start the tool Keyevent Dispaly
    4) click a button on the client
    5) read the scan code on the Keyevent Dispaly
    6) open the file /system/usr/keylayout/droidmote.kl
    7) put the scan code on the left and on the right the new custom action
    8) reboot the device with the server installed.

    You can find the list of custom action to this android developer page:
    http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/KeyEvent.html.

    The default scan codes for droidmote buttons are:
    Arrow up is key 314
    Arrow down is key 316
    Arrow left is key 317
    Arrow right is key 318
    Arrow up-left is key 312
    Arrow up-right is key 313
    Arrow down-left is key 288
    Arrow down-right is key 306

    A button is key 304
    B button is key 305
    X button is key 307
    Y button is key 308
    Z button is key 309
    square button is key 310
    circle button is key 311
    triangle button is key 315


    Only honeycomb and later versions of Android include the use of buttons and axes:

    key 304 BUTTON_A
    key 305 BUTTON_B
    key 306 BUTTON_C
    key 307 BUTTON_X
    key 308 BUTTON_Y
    key 309 BUTTON_Z
    key 310 BUTTON_L1
    key 311 BUTTON_R1
    key 312 BUTTON_L2
    key 313 BUTTON_R2
    key 314 BUTTON_SELECT
    key 315 BUTTON_START
    key 316 BUTTON_MODE
    key 317 BUTTON_THUMBL
    key 318 BUTTON_THUMBR

    If you have the DroidMote Server installed on a version earlier than honeycomb but you want utilize the buttons, open the file querty.kl and add:

    key 304 A
    key 305 B
    key 306 C
    key 307 X
    key 308 Y
    key 309 Z
    key 310 D
    key 311 E
    key 312 F
    key 313 G
    key 314 H
    key 315 I
    key 316 L
    key 317 M
    key 318 N

    You can customize also the axes from honeycomb and later version of Android:

    left stick x is 0x00
    left stick y is 0x01

    right stick x is 0x02
    right stick y is 0x05

    accelerometer x is 0x10
    accelerometer y is 0x11

    In the default configuration you have:
    axis 0x00 X
    axis 0x01 Y
    axis 0x02 Z
    axis 0x03 LTRIGGER
    axis 0x04 RTRIGGER
    axis 0x05 RZ
    axis 0x10 HAT_X
    axis 0x11 HAT_Y
    in this configuration you use the left stick to move the avatar --> X and Y and the right stick to change view of the avatar --> Z and RZ

    If you want you can change this in:
    axis 0x00 Z
    axis 0x01 RZ
    axis 0x02 X
    axis 0x03 LTRIGGER
    axis 0x04 RTRIGGER
    axis 0x05 Y
    axis 0x10 HAT_X
    axis 0x11 HAT_Y
    in this configuration you use the left stick to change view of the avatar --> Z and RZ and the right stick to move the avatar --> X and Y

    Another useful configuration for the axes if you want use the analog LTRIGGER and RTRIGGER is:
    axis 0x00 X
    axis 0x01 Y
    axis 0x02 Z
    axis 0x03 LTRIGGER
    axis 0x04 RTRIGGER
    axis 0x05 split 0x00 RTRIGGER LTRIGGER
    axis 0x10 HAT_X
    axis 0x11 HAT_Y
    in this first configuration you use the left stick to move the avatar --> X and Y and the right stick to change view when you move left and right, instead if you move up and down you use the LTRIGGER and the RTRIGGER. (is useful to drive a car or generic racing game).

    If you have a racing game or you want move the character with the accelerometer, you can change the defaul axes 0x10 and 0x11 with all you want.


    For more information on the customization look at:
    http://source.android.com/tech/input/key-layout-files.html


    Games that support gamepad only for testing the "real gamepad" emulation future:

    - Shadowgun
    - Riptide Gp
    - Reckless Getaway
    - GTA 3
    - Onlive games with this patched apk link or mirror-1
    - Raging Thunder II
    - Cordy
    - Hockey Nations 2011
    - All Emulators

    Updated list:
    http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1542820

    Suggest a new game with the gamepad support !


    For games that do not natively support gamepads, you can create a touch profile with the app "Touch Profile Creator" and put the xml file created in the sd card of the device in which you have installed DroidMote Client.

    HOW TO INSTALL DROIDMOTE SERVER ON MK802

    Premise:

    MK802 with DroidMote inside is an "economic special google tv".
    Special because, without touch screen you can use all apps and games that support only touch actions. (and not only...)
    The MK802 has sufficient hardware (my model is 512MB ram), but have inside a jung ROM.
    The Android community we're working on to improve.
    With this video i want only demonstrate how well run DroidMote with a mini device like this (i hope with better hardware), and how many things you can do.
    To install DroidMote on this device there is a little hack because the rom for now, lacks many basic components.
    In 99% of the Android devices the installation is automatic,and requires no actions.

    Video of DroidMote in action on MK802:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Keancvm07uo


    Workaround without changing the ROM:

    1) Download and install DroidMote Server from the Google Play.
    2) Start DroidMote and click with the mouse the ON button. (started well, but does not work do not worry).
    3) Download the uinput.ko in the attachment below.
    4) open terminal emulator (If you not have it, download from Google Play).
    5) In terminal emulator run the following commands:

    su
    mount -o remount,rw /system
    busybox cp /download-folder-of-uinput/uinput.ko /vendor/modules (change "download-folder-of-uinput" with your folder ex. /mnt/sdcard/Download)
    busybox mv /vendor/modules/mma7660.ko /vendor/modules/mma7660.ko.bak
    busybox mv /vendor/modules/uinput.ko /vendor/modules/mma7660.ko
    busybox chmod 644 /vendor/modules/mma7660.ko
    umount /system

    6) restart the MK802
    7) open DroidMote Server, go in the settings and enable the options "start on boot".
    8) restart the MK802 (If all goes well, after two minutes from the boot, DroidMote open and start automatically,
    and is ready to receive connections from your phone).



    p.s.
    the module uinput.ko below, is for the MK802 with the default kernel 3.0.8+ (in the next ROM, this module and other corrections,
    should already be included and thus will not have to do anything -look at miniand.com for the new firmware with uinput inside-).
    3
    This uinput.ko module with vermagic=3.0.36+ preempt mod_unload ARMv7 can work on all allwinner a10 devices with the CM10 ROM of Christian Troy :
