Hi Everyone,
This is the first app that I've publish, so any constructive criticisms are welcome.
Vritual Wheel:
This app allows you to use your android device as a wireless steering wheel to control racing/driving games on your PC.
Your android device and computer must be on the same network for this to work (meaning same router/switch).
This app currently works with both 32 and 64 bit Windows.
Installation and usage instructions are in the app description on the Play market.
Link:
Please leave me some feedbacks in this thread on what you like and what you don't like. Also what you want (other than the planned features) and any bugs (please also tell me what device and version of Android you are running).
Code:
Changelog:
[B]v0.1:[/B]
Initial Release
[B]v0.2:[/B]
Added steering angle adjustments and deadzone.
Added 64 bit support.
Thank You
id noticed your post on lfs forum earlier on so downloaded it, il be going on lfs soon so will give this a try and leave feedback
Thanks. My computer's graphics card just died on me yesterday, so I won't be able to do much development. Going to take about 3 days for the new GPU to come in. I plan to implement adjustable steering angle, calibration, and hopefully bluetooth communication in the next update. 64-bit is a bit harder than I thought, so that is currently delayed.

It's a fantastic app from what I can see. I'm using a 64bit pc so I'm eagerly awaiting the 64 bit release!
EDIT: Is there anyway to run it on a 64 bit pc as a 32 bit app or something? Like "Compatability mode" etc?

Unfortunately no. The 64 bit support has to do with the driver. Currently, I estimate about 1-2 weeks before I can get the 64 bit support working. So hang in there, it's coming
Ok, finally got my GPU. Just compiled the 64bit drivers, and tested to be working fine. All I have to do now is implement them into the installation package. 64 bit coming this weekend

good to hear, im on a 64 bit machine so would find these useful, i look forward to testing it on live for speed,
v0.2
Added steering angle adjustments and deadzone
Also added 64-bit support (I am still learning Windows Driver Development, so the implementation is not very efficient and clean. Hopefully I will be able to design a clean custom driver for both 32 and 64 bit within the next month)
Wow this is a sweet idea

How to make this app works with City Car Driving or Need For Speed Underground 2?
Would you give a way to configure it on PC (in games)?
Thanks...
I can confirm this works with the HTC One X and Saints Row 2, I'll check out some other games the coming days if I have time.
Really awesome development!
Two things didn't go very smooth though:
- installing the unsigned driver
- figuring out the correct axis and buttons
The first is a tough nut probably, but the latter could be solved by adding a help option in settings that shows the button map.
Idea's for further development:
- autolaunch the program with Windows, to the system tray
- autosearching from the app for running servers on the network (check out Unified Remote's implementation)
- choosing to use the two center buttons or using that as a touch area (for camera control)
- hook the volume buttons as shoulder buttons!
- allow custom layouts (maybe only colors and texts, but that would be cool to accomodate other games)
The PC client keeps failing when I start android app, I assume while connecting to PC.
This application must have a "Prevent Screen to Turn Off"
Use with Linux? Flightgear, etc.
There are numerous apps to keep screen on. Can use Xposed, appsettings module.

Getting the same error here. And one other thing - when I type the IP Address, which the program is showing me, i get absolutely no connection, but as soon as I enter my correct LAN IP Address, things get to the 'stopped responding' thingy...
hello ..! I wanted to install the file. exe of this application on my PC with windows 7 32bit and I have the following problem ..!
and also attached the LOG installation gives me the program ..!
I had a driver issue here, but I attempted a fix and I think it worked, VWheel device driver is now successfully installed, but still app is hanging in Windows when I open simultaneously Virtual Wheel in phone and on PC(As soon as it connects, it brakes down). Also, I can see that 32bit users are installing v0.3, im on x64 here, first tried installing program from the main link in GooglePlayStore, but it wasn't successful, so I saw that there is a 64-bit version, which is reporting v0.2a ?

Do I need Wi-Fi connection or I can just turn-on my Laptop wi-fi and my Xperia S wi-fi to use this?
P.S: I don't have Wi-Fi, I use Modem to connect to internet.

You have to have a Local Network e.g. a Router, only enabling Wi-Fi on your PC and Phone is not going to work but I think there were a few programs that might help you create a network between your laptop and your phone. Google for Wi-Fi Hotspot or something and search the results for the program that suits you best. Good luck. Im still stuck here with program crashing when I setup everything right. Dunno why also as I mentioned earlier, program reports wrong PC IP Address, check for solution on that also.
Error code: CLR20r3, tried all the fixes I could find in the web, no success... OP, try researching why this problem may occur and at least let me know cuz I'm struggling from 3 hours to fix this and get it up and running Admirations on your work too
I'm in Canada, and it won't show up on the store unless I (presumably) spoof my location. I know people have had it working from other countries already - could someone upload this? Much appreciated!

I live in Canada and it installed and works great, so you should have no problems.
Yes, I'm a retard. There's a link to the app from the Shield store (when you press the home button), but this goes no where in the google play store - turns out the GRID beta was already installed on my shield automatically with update 65. Found under all apps.
Could someone rip it for me?
It ism't working for me in Indonesia, it is not installed in the update, I don't want to wait to get back to the UK, I'm here for a couple of months
Agree, grid beta apk is needed. Someone please upload apk.
please upload apk
thanks
Grid working in uk!
Hi,Grid is working in northern Ireland In the UK On the shield!
here you go
Here you go! http://icloudserv.com/gridapp.apk
But it will only work on Shield (I tried on my HTC one and it says "this device is not supported") I also tried to open file and change something, but everything is encrypted , and other files dont have needed information on how to change the file to work with Every Android device, as far as I understand Cloud Gaming has nothing to do with NVIDIA TEGRA GPU. Is it possible to decrypt it and make see Remote Desktop with all graphic Features such as D3d or OpenGL? Kelper GPU supports passthrough.

Nether Tegra Note 7 support it.
From nvidia forum:
"The TegraNote 7 doesnt have integrated 5Ghz wifi in it, which we know can result in some stuttering. "
Só maybe you device should have integrated 5GHz wifi to work.
Hi,
Maybe changing the build.prop might help?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1948558
As for the 5Ghz routers, that's only a recommendation. I live in Portugal (170+- latency), and I can play Grid just fine with my 2,5Ghz routers (RT-N16 with Tomato).
Obviously they should be fined tuned to offer the best possible performance to wireless clients.

try a logcat while launching the app to see why it's unhappy. On one device I had, Tasker installed but would not run without one of the framework files supplied by Maps. Just copying in the framework file was enough to get Tasker running, didn't need the app itself.
Anyone tried a nodded build prop? It would be cool to get this working on a nexus 10
So I've been doing a lot of looking around and I got a surface w. 8.1 for work as I needed MS Office. The only thing that I would like to be able to do is to MOD it so that I can put Google play on it and run android apps. I see that there is application called BlueStacks an emulator, I downloaded the .exe but the surface gives me the message that it can't run the exe. I went into the device and configured it to all untrusted apps via a YouTube I found and that did not work.
I'm not looking to make major changes to it. I am happy with it but want to add my android app. Can anybody point me in the right direction? Btw I am a complete noob on how to do this.

I use DuOs. Haven't had one issue with it at all. It uses a newer version of android than bluestacks runs everthing like an android tablet would. They give you a free trial soo after that its not free. But i think the trial is like 30 days.
Cool do you have a direct link?
Ya I did some looking up online and it doesn't say a whole lot on where to start and get set up with the 30 day trial and what not. Any suggestions
Here's the link. Like i said, it's a free trial with all the features for 30 days. Then after that its a one time charge. I liked it soo much that I bought it and have been using it for a couple months without issues. Once installed you'll have to setup the android stuff just like its dual booting. You'll have to type in the wifi passwords and select the wifi networks. There's also a box to check in the android settings to give full root access to run android programs that require a rooted device. One thing that i recommend is closing the DuOs program completely when finished. You can switch between windows and android just like using a regular windows program but it doesn't like when windows goes in "sleep" mode while its running. I always close the program when i'm not using it. The app can be ended by entering windows task manager if it ever becomes unstable but i haven't experienced anything other than the waking up from "sleep" mode. I've noticed with several games that my surface running Duos, plays them smoother and more responsive than my Sony Xperia Tab Z. Hope this helps!

Thank you I downloaded the .exe and it will not run on my tablet. There was jail break .bat file that I ran on the surface but how do I check to see if it worked ?

What model surface are you using? Is the os win 8.1? Everything that i've installed on mine installed just like a pc.
windows rt 8.1
32 bit os
arm processor
2gb ram
NVidia tegra 3 quad core cpu 1.30GhZ
The error that I get states that it can't run this app on this PC.

That's your problem there. As I understand it, you cannot install third party apps on the RT version of windows. You will only be able to install apps from the microsoft store.
Damn regretting RT 8.1 more an more everyday
EDIT : One time, Prime Video began to load a few images before it force closed.
First and foremost, I have tried searching to no avail. And the OP in this thread (https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/help/req-walmart-black-friday-tablet-lenovo-t3508508) doesn't seem to know, either. So I'm attempting to cast a wider net here. Thanks in advance.
I have a Lenovo Tab TB-X103F 10.1 inch tablet. It's a budget model that Wal-Mart was selling for real cheap earlier this year. (Only 1GB of RAM.) It originally shipped with Android Marshmallow, but in the months since, TWRP and Lineage OS 14.1 were ported to it. Lineage OS runs great. And even though there's some lag, it's not terrible. Overall a decent tablet.
Anyway, back when I was on the stock ROM, I loved using the tablet to watch Amazon Prime Video. But it doesn't seem to work for me since I installed Lineage OS. I'll install the Amazon Underground app. That works fine. I install the Amazon Prime Video app from there. When I open the app, it'll come up, look like it's trying to load something, and then close. All I get was that Prime Video has stopped. No error code. No way (as far as I know) to output some kind of log. Nothing that I can use to help diagnose this.
Oddly, the OP was able to get it to run on his system without a problem.
I've reinstalled newer builds of the OS with full wipes, even wiping user data. Everything else, including stuff like Youtube works fine, so I know it can still handle streaming video.
I've also uninstalled the app, reinstalled it, cleared the cache, cleared all data. Everything I can think of. I don't know why it refuses to work on my system, but the OP can still use it on his.
Even having Root (with and without Magisk) or no root has zero effect. Still get force closes.
Sorry this ran a bit long, but I hope you can help me figure this out. If you know of some way I can log this to aid in diagnosing the problem, please let me know.
Thanks very much in advance!
EDIT: Here's the logcat pull for this. It's long, and I can't make any sense of this, but I think the amazon prime video stuff is near the bottom. I opened the app multiple times ad let it shut down like it does to make sure I had the whole thing captured.
Hope someone can help. Thanks.
I can't upload the logcat.txt directly, as the uploader says its too big.
Here's a link to a version of it on Google Drive. Hope that will work...
EDIT: See bottom post for logcat file.
New Logcat file
Here's a new logcat file. This one is much shorter, and is directly linked. No google drive required.
I hope you can help with this. I've had no luck, and the OP for the rom can't seem to reproduce the error on his end. Frustrating.
Thank you in advance.

Hello! I don't get my OP6 till Monday or Tuesday, but I used the method in the link you provided for my Essential PH-1 and it worked fine. I've never had a OnePlus device before, so I'm not familiar with OOS. I'm hoping this method works as I like watching Plex VR with friends who don't live in the state I do.

Hello,
Thanks for your message.
I use this method with my OnePlus 3 and it works well with many applications - you can use the plug-in vr with Magisk too.
Unfortunately, i have some issues with my Op6 ...
Hope we find a solution

I tried this last night....and it worked for the most part. Until I launched Daydream, the left picture was fine, the right picture looked like a kaleidoscope. So I reverted the daydream version back 1 version and there was a large black line in the middle of the right picture. Reverted to an older one again, and one more time both with the same black line (was a pretty thick line)
So I renamed the device to OnePlus 6 from sailfish in build.prop, and removed the 2 <feature name= /> lines from the handheld_core_hardware.xml files.
I hope something works for us soon!
FYI I got this working yesterday. I had to install an old version of Daydream though - 1.10 worked. I was then able to upgrade to latest (1.15.) I didn't exactly test it thoroughly so I'm not sure if it has to be the right phase of the moon while hopping on one foot or anything, but I got "incompatible phone" errors until I used 1.10 then everything was cool. I was able to play through the tutorial and poke around a little at the menus.
EDIT: I just tried it again and right "lens" was messed up. Uninstalled and went back to 1.10 and seems like everything is working again. 1.11 isn't on apkmirror and 1.12 seems to have a bit of an updated UI, so maybe there's something to using 1.10? I'll play around some more tonight and report back.
EDIT 2: Oh haaay 1.16 was just uploaded to apkmirror last night. Will try that too.
Oh, and FWIW I'm on stock rooted Oxygen 5.1.8 with the 8/256 model.
Anyone else having any luck?

Have you gotten this to work with 1.16? I tested 1.10 and still got the "Incompatible device" error when trying to configure Daydream. I also attempted 1.08 just to see if older versions worked, then went for 1.16, getting the same results.
I'm on an OP6, OOS 5.1.8, stock rom, rooted.
I got Daydream working with current Daydream build from the app store. I installed the Magisk Module called "Daydream Enabler"
I'm on OP6 128/8 stock OOS 5.1.7 with Magisk 16.0 and MM 5.8.1

That worked for me, thanks! The only catch is that the module seems to break video recording in the stock camera app, causing the app the close as soon as I switch the video mode. Disabling the module and rebooting fixes the issue. Strange that they're related...

Hey, just FYI I have a the same issue. Possible that the camera app recognises a different device and breaks the functionality.

Naw no luck. The magisk module is working fine though. Same results that it breaks the video recorder.
But I ran into something unexpected - That module appears to make visual voicemail on project fi work. Sort of. They show up, but won't play. Before oneplus + projectfi = no visual voicemail. I'll play with it some more when I get back stateside (I'm in Mexico at the moment.) Would be neat if it enabled network switching onto sprint! A girl can dream...
Edit: Enabling the module (which "pixelizes" your phone) made the project fi app give me the "welcome to mexico" thing which I didn't get when I entered a new country on a non-officially-supported phone, and it prompted me to download Android 9, which I declined since I'm sure it would have been the pixel's rom and bricked my oneplus.
Neat to see it enables some project fi stuff...
Any further progress on this?
no progress and i noticed that I can't access to all app in daydream store app
