I have a strange issue.
I have an android tv box (M8s+) that I had attached to a pc monitor for set up so my wife could watch tv. I used a HDMI to VGA cable to attach it. I had as USB mouse attached to the box. There were no problems at all using the mouse for the set up.
I moved the box to my Vizio tv. This time the box was connect via HDMI. I cannot get the mouse cursor to show up at all. I know it is there as sometimes when I click randomly stuff opens. Also the right click button works to back up.
I am sure it is not the tv as I have a windows 7 pc attached to it that I have used both as usb mouse and an Ipazz wireless mouse/keyboard with no issues.
I tried the ipazz as well with the android box and again nothing.
Thoughts?

Is there anything I need to do/install to get my mouse or keyboard to work on 3.1? When I plug them in, nothing happens. I've also tried plugging in my iPhone and an Xbox 360 controller, just to see if there is any response to any of them to show that the Xoom sees them.
I have a wired mouse and wireless keyboard (I figured keyboard wouldn't work). I'm trying to figure out if I may just have a bad OTG adapter.
Bluetooth keyboards work just fine.
You won't get any notifications or popups when you plug in a device, they will just start working (eg, you can just start typing with the keyboard).
Yeah I assumed they would just start working, but I wasn't sure if my wireless keyboard would work. I know when I am, for example, installing windows the keyboard works before drivers get installed, just not to the full extent.
I need help on this aswell... anyone?
I was wondering about this aswell. Doesn't it need to download drivers for the keyboard/mouse to work? Also since there's only one USB plug, would a hub work to get like a keyboard and mouse working at the same time?
And would wireless work?
Today I tried plugging in my TF101 to a HDMI TV.
I have a mini HDMI to HDMI adapter.
I also have a HDMI cable, and a HDMI to VGA cable.
I tried both the HDMI and VGA. Plugging these into the TV got nothing.
The TV was in Chinese, but I think everything was done correctly. I pressed the change input button Flipped through all possible inputs and nothing.
I hooked another laptop up to the TV via VGA, and it worked fine.
Is there something I need to do on the TF101 to use the HDMI output, or do I need to start testing my equipment?
I really don't want to have to go back to the Asus repair center. I've been in both of the local Asus repair centers so many times for the TF101, that everyone knows me by name and I get ushered to the front of the line. I mean, I'm glad Asus has two full fledged repair centers in Xi'an, but they don't have any parts in stock, so it is worthless to go there.
perhaps the video is hdcp protected, and your TV is not?
The video should appear immediately with no input from user (besides connecting the cable).
I have had monitors and an old TV not supporting hdcp and it just gave me a black image (or no image, same thing).
I have to have my projector off when I connect the hdmi cable THEN turn my projector on.
This is my case and works every time
I have the J>T plugin installed, and it's yellow.
IME is yellow.
BT is OFF.
Analog-Key-Mode is ON.
I plug the Receiver in, and sync my controller. The controller only shows one connected quadrant, which is correct.
The controller shows up on my tablet as "X360 CTRL Wireless (1)".
However, I keep seeing: "Your Android-Device can not handle this amount of Joysticks!"
The app (or other apps) do not seem to register any controller presses.
Any ideas?

I had the same problem with galaxy GS3 and PS3 Controller. If you Use USB OTG cable then change it. Every other devices was working all right with this cable except an error you mentioned. I accidentally found that fault when plugging and unplugging device.
I bought this type of USB OTG on ebay and the connection is really tight.
Here's ebay item number. 170939379849
Hopefully works
Hry guys. New to Nvidia Shield. Was womdering if you can use the USB charging \ data cable and plug it into the usb port on the tv. Would this work? And do you need a special app to use it ?
I imagine that unless you are talking about reading some video files on your storage and playing those on the TV, no, it wouldn't work like that.
However, the Shield Portable does have a mini-HDMI port along with its micro-USB port. So you could just plug it into an HDMI port and you would have an instant mirror of your screen. In fact this is how you start up the "Console Mode" where you hook it to your TV and a charger, and you attach a Shield Wifi-Direct controller or a BT controller (or a wired USB controller I guess via a split charge/USB-OTG cable), and you have a nice way to stream your games from GRID, your comp, or native from the Shield to your big-screen TV.
TL;DR - No, wouldn't work. Don't need it though, you have an HDMI out on it.
Hi guys.
Just bought a Realme 4k stick with google tv.
I used to have an android 7 tv box with mouse and keyboard.
For some reason on google tv the mouse and keyboard does not work properly.
When I go to settings it expects keyboards moves so if I click on mouse it always click on the first option.
On netflix app I can´t choose the profile on mouse, the same problem, it expects some keyboard left right, not a mouse click.
At my old android 7 tv box, the mouse right button was a back key on menu. All worked well with this setup of back and forth...
anybody succeeded using external usb mouse/keyboard?
Hi there do you solve problem? I cant even use any keyboard and Mouse not even extra usb drive to watch photos etc. What kind of hub do you use? I have a hub with external power delivery where i connect power charge then connect micro usb to stick all works but when I connect any external (Mouse, kboard, usb drive) nothing happens.
