I don't think this is "high quality", and my audio display tool shows just 2-channel sound. Not believing it could really be this easy and straightforward I then opened the APPS presentation on the Shield, navigated to the bottom of the list, and amazingly sure enough there was a new icon for UIDROID!! So I selected and opened it, and what to my wondering eyes should appear but the identical Windows version of NextPVR.exe app user interface!!Įven more remarkable is that there actually was sound FROM ALL CHANNELS, including the new ATSC 3.0 channels. Then it was simply a matter of pushing the "Install APK" button to produce the navigation dialog, navigating to where I'd previously downloaded and saved the uidroid APK file (from your "announcing UIDroid for Android" page), selecting it, and pushing the OK button.ĪDB2Link then apparently did everything it needed to do, installing the APK file living on my Windows PC across the network onto my Shield Tube. And then I retried the "connect" from ADB2Link and now sure enough So I checked the "always allow from this computer" box by pushing OK on the Shield remote, and then OK. Turns out the connection attempt from ADBLink2 prompted the popup on my TV screen (attached to the Shield Tube) allowing me to allow USB debugging exactly as described in the documentation. This initially failed because I had not authorized the device, meaning I had never turned on developer options on my Shield. the IP address of the Shield on my network) and pushed the "connect" button. I then "connected" to my Shield Tube (which doesn't have USB ports, so this network access to it from Windows was a perfect solution). The ADBLink product offers extra functionality for Kodi which for me is irrelevant, so I decided to uninstall my originally installed ADBLink and go with the simpler ADB2Link which seemed to be the perfect APK-installation tool. The magic tool was ADB2LINK 4.8 for Windows.īased on your suggestion I initially Googled and then installed ADBLink 4.3, but once launched it said there was an update and led me to the updated web page from Jocala Software which offered two versions of the program: ADBLink and ADB2Link.
However I was 100% successful, and it took maybe 5 minutes total from zero to finished. I'd never side-loaded anything before so I was nervous. Finally got up the courage to look into installing uidroid.
