Tested with latest xbmc gotham build. NO problems with last server and client versions.

My suggest:
Uninstall completly the server and reinstall the last version from google play. After the first start be sure that all configurations files listed in the first lines of this page was copied. http://www.videomap.it/dmcguide.htm

Specially the droidmote.kl

And sun7i/Cubietruck ?

It would be cool if you could upload uinput.ko for sun7i/Cubietruck because I can't actually use Droidmote Server, just the virtual mouse but not the virtual keyboard :(

Hi. Does this work with the Nexus 7 2013 version? Before I bought the app, I checked via term emulator if it was compatible. I have root and busybox too. But everytime I launch the server, it won't start. :(

It just says can't download integrity checker all the time even if it is connected via wifi. I downloaded the app on my S3 i9300 and it works like a charm. I am using the stock rom on my nexus. I've tried everything in the FAQ such as clearing play store cache and reinstalling thr server app. I still get the same error. :(

Edit:
To be clear, I don't have any firewall and other apps access the internet just fine. I've rebooted my tablet several times as well (though I don't think it would make any difference) and still no luck. :(

Edit 2:
Finally got it to work by using Titanium Backup to clear cache and uninstall. That was really odd.

Is very simple start DroidMote Server.

You need last Client and last Server from Google Play.

If you have a problem with the server, completly uninstall and reinstall from Google Play the last version.

Follow this advice and you will never have problems.

Would there be any plan to release a client for PC? I could see this working to my favor when working from home, on my computer. I would not have to reach for my phone to control my tablet connected to my TV. Are there any plans for this in the pipeline? Thanks!

On all rk3188 and rk3066 like the 96% of all android decices the uinput module is already in the kernel. You can buy the server from google play and if you have root permissions. All ok. Don't lose time with versions that you find in bad website.

In standard Android devices, with a good Android Firmware, the ring disappear automatically like the mouse cursor after some seconds.
This is a standard Android behaviour. DroidMote simulate only real hardwar devices. (in the case in question a multitouch touchpad)

you can trust my words, using the server on onother device.

i suggest only to see if you have all the configurations files installed well.

@OP

I have used the droidmote server with htc one, evo lte and few other phones and it seems to be working fine. However, the droidmote doesn't work properly on the Nvidia Shield (Server). As soon as i try to swipe across pages or scroll via client app, i.e, as soon as i try to use multi-touch, the shield reboots the UI again and again. Also the media buttons, home and back buttons doesn't work. Can you please suggest me a workaround or fix this with update?

Well I've checked I have the files in file manager and they're all there. Ive tried installing busybox and then reinstalling droidmote but no good.

Any other ideas?

You have done a splendid job with this app! I am very impressed with it. Best purchase I ever made.

How I use it : 1)Place Samsung Galaxy Note 2 N7100 and Samsung Wave GT-S8500 with Android KitKat CM 11 by volk204.
2)Connect them with Hotspot tethering.
3)Use Wave as keyboard, mouse and gamepad!

Now, because of you, I can code my android apps using "AIDE for Android" in full screen, play around using "cppDroid" (C++ and C) and other great stuffs.

Nvidia Shield
Nexus 7 (2013)
Bought this some time back for my Ouya. Was having problems with the Ouya controller so I decided to get this set up. I installed BusyBox but now I'm getting some message saying "can't download integrity checker"..is this some sort of anti-piracy measure? Because I blooming well paid for the app!

I turned Adblock Plus off in case there was some host file blocking nonsense but I am still getting the error message (maybe I should try rebooting with Adblock turned off?).

    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

    Features:

    [✔] Remote Mouse
    [✔] Remote Multitouch Touchpad
    [✔] Two Fingers Scroll Zoom Rotate
    [✔] Remote Keyboard
    [✔] Remote Mediaplayer
    [✔] Remote Dpad
    [✔] Remote Multitouch Gamepad
    [✔] Remote Control with accelerometer
    [✔] Two virtual analog stick on screen
    [✔] Touch emulation allows you to map buttons and analog sticks to the screen. Play all your favourite games with full analog support, even those without built-in controller support!
    [✔] TouchMouse for games that not support a real mouse
    [✔] Voice dictation with android keyboard
    [✔] Gesture typing with android 4.2 keyboard

    For the Server part:
    Android versions > 2.2:
    support: mouse,keyboard,dpad,mediaplyer,gamepad to keyboard.
    Android versions > 3.2:
    support: mouse,keyboard,dpad,mediaplyer,real gamepad, multitouch touchpad,touch profiles.

    If you are satisfied with DroidMote is much appreciated a good vote/review on Google Play​

    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://forum.xda-developers.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-).
