Nvidia shield android tv


Question

Posted (edited)

Hi! I have a problem with the GG on my shield tv. When i start the app a window appear:

"Unable to show floating window

Please enable permissions on the next screen"

...but the next screen with the enable option never showing...only the homescreen of the GG.

The shield tv running android marshmallow.

With the previous version (lollipop) run the GG fine.

How can i enable the floating window?

I search it everywhere, but find nothing...

(The screenshot is from my mobile device, not from shield)

The 2nd screenshot not appear on shield.

[sorry for my bad english]

 

GG version is 8.4.2

In marshmallow need explict allow floating window or GG can not draw own window over other apps. I do not know where this option in your firmware. Can be it cutted by firmware makers. Try google for resolve this issue. Is not GG related but firmware related.

It is special stock rom made only for shield tv. Yes, it is possible this option not included. :/

I can't find anything on the net..

I have to agree on this. I have a shield tv also, but first u would like to note that version 7 does work. Allows for the floating window and drawing over apps, and yes on marshmallow. 

The current version does not however, and in android tv marshmallow builds, is lacking this feature to allow the permissions. Not even in app opps. 

 

Now your competitor, gamekiller ( not exactly sure ) i believe, latest versions also work without having to enable special permissions. 

 

The idea of having an extra mapped key ot button would be nice. The nvidia shield tv comes with a gamepad controller, lt ls lb, rt rs rb, a,b,y,x, back button, home, play / pause button, volume +/- buttons.

 

So if volume buttons could be a mapped default, would be nice

I should mention that i had modified the manifest to sdk 22 and works great. Ill try the new version you posted and share the result.

 

 

EDIT: Tried the apk you posted and got the same result. It works! 

I assume you had lowered the sdk target version for it?

 

Thank you!

May be gamekiller target to old sdk and work with compability mode. But we can not use this because some firmwares need this permissions even for old sdk targeted apk.

 

Try test version and tell result.

GameGuardian.git_signed.apk

 

Yesss, this is a working version!¡!

Thank You!
