My NP arrived in the post today. Installed Plex, Netflix and Youtube etc - all great. But now I want to install Kodi.
I followed many different guides (I am not to rooting or anything and understand ADB etc). I'm an Android dev for a living so I know I have all the drivers setup just fine. So, when I plug a USB OTG cable the NP doesnt see it, odd I thought. I plugged the NP into my Linux machine, nothing (adb usb shows nothing no matter what), same with my OSX laptop and Windows device manager doesn't think anything is connected.
I've therefore come to one of two conclusions... 1) the USB port is broken / disabled 2) i'm an idiot. I actually don't think it's the latter in this case.
Can someone assist me please?

I'm having the same problem, adb devices and fastboot devices isn't finding anything except for once. I was lucky enough for adb devices to find it once but as soon as I booted into fastboot it stopped working again. Of course I have tried different usb cables, ports and all works when using them on different phones. pretty frustrating.

you can install es file explorer from your pc by going to the google store and selecting your nexus player, you can then sync your google drive account and use it to install sideloader.
try stick mount to mount thumb drive , you can push apps and install them with skipsofts tool kit...
This is a new problem.
I had no problem before the 5.1.1 update. I have a OTG with four USB ports and an Ethernet port all of which worked perfectly before the update. I already have ES file explorer but since the Nexus plus doesn't recognize any USB device any more it's worthless at the moment.
So i just got my MOJO and was in the process of rooting it but, i can't seem to get windows 7 to recognize the device when i connect it by USB. It always shows up as "unknown device". How do i get Windows 7 to recognize it?
Also i have another problem regarding sound....there isn't any. When i load up a video on the MOJO, or just try to do anything that would have sound, theres nothing. I have the sound at MAX using the CTRL gamepad controls. Still, nothing.
I knew the MOJO was going to be one of those devices you have to fight with in order to get it to do what you want but, this is worse than i expected.
Help?
It really is a terrible experience out of the box. We know who to blame Mad Catz!
For Windows to recognize it, you have to install ADB Drivers, try the ones from teamandroid: www teamandroid .com/download-android-usb-drivers/
You will have to locate the device in the windows device manager and install the drivers manually.
But you can root the mojo without conencting it to the pc. you can root it with towelroot (Version 1). you have to search with google for the apk. the newest version (3) and v2 won't work.
After that you can use Flashify to flash a custom recovery.
For the sound: do you have another hdmi slot at your tv? this sounds like a connection problem.

Connecting it to the PC is (supposed)to be the EASY way though. Also....i don't see the mojo listed among the devices on that link you mentioned. Which one should i download??

Try the driver from Samsung.
If they don't work, use the universal adb drivers: github.com/koush/UniversalAdbDriver
Towelroot would be much easier, you just install the App and klick one button (but only v1 works with mojo)

Thanks for the reply but i've tried all towelroot 1.0 as well as 3.0 and it did NOT work. I got an error saying, "This phone isn't currently supported". No matter which version i try.
Edit: Ok got it working! Turns out i was attempting the V2.0 & V3.0 versions. There are plenty of sites out there that would claim to have v1.0. However, once i downloaded and installed it, i'd see a "v2" or "v3" at the top of the screen.
In the end, I had to do a google search for a towelroot spefically for MOJO. Only then did i finally come across a site that had a legit v1.0.

Good job! I'm glad it worked in the end.
I also had to search a long time to find the correct tr version. But you will never need it again, once it's rooted. if you want to go back to stock, you can flash the original firmware with twrp, too!

Here was the thread it was in:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mad-catz-mojo/development/root-mojo-towelroot-one-click-t2799712
And the link for V1.0 in case anyone wants it. It was tough to find:

Ok so after a few hard weeks messing with this device, i've figured out ways to fix all its quirks, except for one: Not being able to connect to Pc. Thats annoying. I don't like having to remove my Micro SD card everytime i want to add more files.
Especially since this device was deigned in such a way that, its virtually impossible to remove without first removing the HDMI cable first. As they are sooooo CLOSE together.
Any suggestions for drivers? I just need it to function like a plain USB mass storage device, so i can access my Micro SD card on the Pc.
Yeah, the microSD is a pain to remove.. but I never need to touch it.
I don't understand why you want to access the SD via PC as a USB device?
To access the sdcard over wifi I use a SambaDroid server on the mojo pointed to the sdcard.. it works.

I want to be able to freely connect my MOJO by USB and drag & drop files at will to the Micro SD, without having to physically remove the Micro SD card each time (which also means unplugging the HDMI every time!!).
So far i'm enjoying the MOJO console as i've found fixes for every other problem i've run into. This is the only one that continues to elude me. I had not thought about the possibility of my Pc being able to connect remotely though wi-fi, to access the MOJO storage. This might be yet another out-of-the-box fix for me. Can you explain more about how this is done??

Not sure why you want to have a USB on the MOJO that way... the idea of MOJO(or any other topset box) is to keep it online next to your TV, I used to plug USB thumb drives into it.. but you never want to change microSD cards.. same like on a phone or tablet really.
Just install this on mojo:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=berserker.android.apps.sambadroid&hl=en
You can configure it so it shares a folder (google how to share folders on windows or youtube sambadroid).
You can use just the microSD (i think it's /mnt/card1) or the internal storage(i think /storage) or both using just /
I wouldn't do just / though.
It's pretty easy, just replicates windows file sharing and works well.
USB OTG works on my phone through the Y splitter and kernel, but only my Sixaxis controller doesn't work. I'm on PureNexus with the Quanta kernel. Are there any "drivers" I need?
Wireless solutions (Sixaxis app) don't work on Marshmallow at the moment.
I recently updated from OxygenOs 2 to 3.0.2 and lost the ability to use my Playstation 3 controller with my phone.
Previously it worked with the Sixaxis App and bluetooth, but now this app is unable to start the bluetooth driver.
When I connect it via USB it gets recognized as I can see in dmesg, but no key events are recognized. I read that I might need to compile my own kernel with the proper drivers, but I am new to this and would like to do that only as a last resort. From what I can tell this behaves like with OxygenOs 2, but I didn't investigate further because bluetooth worked back then.
Does anyone have experiences with my problem and are there any known solutions?
I looked into compiling kernel modules and have to say that it is easier than I thought.
I took the official kernel source for the OnePlus Two and compiled the hid_sony module.
After loading it with insmod the controller works fine via USB.
If you are interested in the module, it should be compatible with kernel 3.10.84-perf+ and I will give it to you, but I am not allowed to post links, so please write me a PM.
I hope your help was the Sixaxis Controller application running in version 7.1.1 but the application is not working now after updating to 8.0 Is there a way to solve the problem problem
Hello Everybody. How we can pair Ps3 joystick with MI A1 without root with OTG USB Type C cable and the Ps3 controller USB cable? When I try, nothing happens, no games recognise the joystic. I tried sixaxis enabler, but it's said, that firmware is missing for sixaxis. Only solution would be root and bluetooth connection to sixaxis controller app? Thank you for your help. [Android version is latest STOCK NON-Modified Oreo 8.0 January security patch]
Yes root is the only way because the PS3 controller uses a non-standard bluetooth protocol.
That is true. But via cable connection, it should work as well AFAIK, but unfortunately, the firmware is missing from the OS as I can see, which can properly handle the controller. Anyone can confirm that as well please?
