Wow, 7.2 is even more screwed up than I thought. BTW how did you get the DTB and edit it? I've tried pulling it from the DTB partition and decompiling with device-tree-compiler, but it spews a bunch of errors and I don't know whether the output is usable.

This is just a challenge against the unuseful protections of this game.
I never played a more bugged and lagging game than this. Is almost unplayable and have also a lot of unuseful protections. The game check wich input devices you have connected and if you have connected something that is not a touch screen it stop working. Check if your device is modified, but this is easy to solve today. PUBG Mobile is 100000 times better, i don't know how people can play this game. I just want show that despite the protection added, we can do everything we want also on a device like Shield TV that is not supported by default.

That fastboot -w was a problem with me as well and was never solved. I was getting lots of error after booting. I just went back to v7.1.

The main problem of the Nvidia firmwares are the services added in the Android framework instead than as standalone apps. Manufactures, should add his garbage as uninstallable apps in the vendor folder and don't touch the core of Android.

For this reason Google invented the project treble and all new devices with Android PIE inside, to be certified, must be treble compliant, therefore the core of Android must be the same on all devices.

Nvidia is a shit company because do the inverse, add his garbage to the core system breaking things used by other developers.

When Nvidia Game mapping will be an app that you can install and uninstall, then you will have it.

Until now, you can use DroidMote on all your Android, Windows, Linux and Chrome OS devices. And if you don't like you can uninstall and find another app.

I hope to not hear anymore this question on my forum. Thanks.


P.S.
Apart this, aim in multi touch games with a mouse is a sacrilege.

Multi touch games are made to be used with a touch screen, therefore aiming with a mouse on a game like pubg mobile, for example, make the game unplayable.

I don't have nothing to say against keyboard, hardware controllers, because the mapping of touch actions can be done well, but aiming with the mouse on a multi touch game means that you want die in the game 10 seconds after you enter the match.

Without considering the fact that with a mouse and keyboard you are obliged to have shield tv on a desk, while I love to play from the comfort of my sofa with the biggest TV I have.

Anyway, I made some tests before write, and the winner, on all tests on pubg mobile, was the droidmote software controller, not even the hardware controller and not the Nvidia Game mapping .

i killed all my friends in pubg mobile. Some of this they were using hardware controller and others the Nvidia solution. The friends who were using Nvidia's solution died first. We have done many challenge tournaments. I used a Samsung Galaxy S8+ as controller, large and very sensitive touch screen.

This is one of the victories:

Sure, there are users that don't like to play with the software controller or are not able or because they have a shit phone, but with this games, like pubg mobile, only one can be the winner. If only one is able, you will die. :)

Is it an issue related to nvidia firmware or caused by FAO 1.8?

OUT OF TOPIC BUT I THINK IS INTERESTING FOR MANY.
This game for PC will destroy Fortnite and is also better than PUBG.
I'm playing with DroidMote in "Controller to Mouse and Keyboard" emulation mode. The new 5.2.3 "Fast shot on FPS" setting is enabled.


Look when i shoot, i not press any button on the right. I shot by tapping on left stick. The click on left stick work only if you have your finger also on right stick, therefore aim and fast shot. When you don't have finger on right stick, the left stick work normally, so you can move like always.
This new method work better than the previous that was not possible on all phones.

You can also move, shot and aim, try it to understand better.


In the game i set the mouse sensitivity to 65 / 70 but you can set it like you want for faster or slow mouse movements.
In this video the right stick of droidmote emulate the mouse movement while other buttons are keyboard or mouse buttons.
By pressing volume key you have many other keyboard buttons to assign to secondary actions.
