[Q] Controllers don't register when GameStreaming post-update + audio only through PC - Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
First off, let me say how excited I was when I saw updates that allowed for multiple controller support in GameStream games. That's one of my killer features!
The new problem is, after updating, when I turn on my controllers, go into Console Mode/GameStream, etc., the audio continues playing though my computer speakers in another room (not the TV, like it used to), and while the controllers register on the Shield Tablet (to select a game), once the game launches, the controllers don't register in the game at all!
I can still long-press the Start arrow to quit a game, but every game I launch, the controllers don't respond now.
I've already tried 'forgetting' the controllers and re-syncing them, but this issue is totally new to me. And yes, I've already checked/unchecked the 'Audio on PC' option, plenty of times.
I'm really not sure what's going on, but I'm kind of at a loss. As of now, all my GameStream is good for is watching games load with no audio, and that's it.
Has anyone else had an issue like this and knows how to fix it?

[Q] Bluetooth Mouse

I bought a Microsoft bluetooth mouse to use with my TF300 when I have it hdmi to my tv. Seems to work fine, no connection problems, smooth, until I enter any app, netflix as an example, then it goes haywire. The mouse pointer jumps all over, move the mouse right the pointer goes left, stutters, flashes, overall just becomes unusable. I don't know if the problem is the mouse, interference, the tablet, all of these, none of these???? I guess my question is whether anyone has had any luck with bluetooth mice, if so what brand and did you have to do anything special to get it working? I like the idea of creating my own "smart tv", just wish it would work.
Thanks

[Q] Gamepad wont work.

Hi guys, sorry if thisis the wrong section cause this is half accessorie half troubleshoot.
Now to the part, that is bothering me.
Since, the dock has a built-in OTG port, i planned on playing some Asphalt 8 and PS1 games on it.
I got a wired Gioteck VX1 PS3 Controller.
Here's the problem:
Booting up Asphalt 8, it says that a gamepad is connected. When the race starts though, al the buttons are dead.
After some time, i pressed all the buttons on my dock and some buttons are working on the game instead of the gamepad.
Booting the PS1 Emulator is a bit different though.
I can map all buttons, exept the Dpads and the left analog stick.
Tried, USB/BT JoyCenter and it recognizes my gamepad but nothing happens.
Any help, would be welcome.
Thanks for in advance.
Omay, i just got on my hands an OTG for my Galaxy S4.
I connect the usb controller and voila!
It works natively, without any other apps.
So maybe, the problem is on the dock?
It can't override it to work or something?
Bump.
Bump.
Bump?

Sporadic mouse movement over OTG

The idea was to play some Hardline streamed on the Shield tablet in the living room. Everything works super well with the exception of the mouse. I use a Logitech G700 via OTG. The movement seems smooth enough until I hit a brick wall, on and off. So I cant rotate completely with out stopping abruptly and randomly. Doesn’t make for a good kill/death ratio. Anyone know what this is and how to fix it? It’s not update-specific; it’s always been like this. I’ve tried two other mice too and they’re much worse.
Thanks!

Is there a way to output HDMI to my phone, or to stream from a TV to my phone?

Hey everyone. I see tons of options for streaming the display from my phone to my tv, but what about the other way around?
In my situation, I am trying to get remote play working for my PS4 to my android phone, but am encountering issues getting a Dualshock 4 controller to work properly with my phone.
If I can't get this resolved, another option would be to get a playstation TV and attach it to my bedroom tv, but it's tiny, and also about 20 feet away from the bed. Not a great option for playing games. However, if I could use the PSTV and output to my phone, that would be awesome.
Is there something that either can clone the display/sound output of a TV, or even better, something that would allow my phone to directly act as a receiver of an HDMI signal from the PSTV?
Trying to google for options leaves me empty handed because most people are concerned with outputting their phone's display to their television, and I want to go in the opposite direction.
I have the very same question
I'm curious as to why I wouldn't 've able to directly stream what is on my tv to my phone. The PS3 has a controller that works through walls from 20+ ft away, all I want to do is be able to watch through my phone when I'm outside/ in another room.
I find it mind blowing that there isn't a single answer on Google after searching for hours.

can't play most of games

when i try to play most of games (downloaded from playstore too) they detect a gaming controller connected and i can't use touchscreen controls, of course i didn't connect any controller... do you have any idea why this happens?
i think is something related to android oreo but cant find anything on web
That is absolutely bizarre, isn't it? That definitely doesn't sound right.
My gaming is limited to Real Racing 3 and some really middle aged word games.
I am baffled - could it be anything to do with a connected bluetooth device (e.g. speaker) being mis-identified??
is this happening also to you? i don't think is bluetooth related coz i have bluetooth switched off and zero devices connected... must be an incompatibility with Android Oreo
My experience of gaming is fairly limited - maybe list a few of the games that are causing problems and see if any other forum members have the same problem..?
