Just use Remote ADB Shell it's free and does the same thing.. been using it for 7+ years and works great! Can also connect to other machines/phones and even firestick and Android boxes etc
Just put in localhost in the ip/host section to connect to your own phone ;)
Got root?
If not, you can use this app, enable WiFi debugging on watch and connect to same WiFi as phone and job done. This may even work via BT bridge debug from phone, but, WiFi would be faster.
Go to Settings, Device Preferences, About, System Update, set it to notify me below Check for updates. Or you can disable the package completely which I did with my current setup and by disabling it, go to Settings once again, Device Preferences, About, scroll down to build, tap it 7 times to enable developer options and back out once, scroll down a little bit until you see network debugging, or USB debugging, adb shell, pm disable-user com.nvidia.ota to disable updates permanently until 9.1 releases with fixes. You can also use remote adb shell if you have an Android device and use network debugging, type in your IP, pm disable com.nvidia.ota

Enable developer options, go there and enable adb, if you have an Android phone install Remote ADB Shell, connect to TV IP address with app, confirm security dialog, run the command I listed above.
I have a Hisense H8G running Android 9 using Button Mapper.
This needs root.
There is, however, a workaround without root for some devices..

You need to enable WiFi debug through a PC and use this. Once done, you can disconnect PC and continue with this until the next reboot of your device, after which, you need ADB access again to enable WiFi debug.
Are you using an ADB command with your laptop? If so then this might help (only need laptop after a reboot).
> (since after 7.0 update,)
If that's a G6 bug (and not an app bug), have you reported it? (Are you still getting OS/security updates?)
Android debugging bridge (ADB):
Install remote adb shell from the play store. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgutman.androidremotedebugger
Enable developer options in your phone.
Enable wireless adb debugging in the developer options on your phone.
Open the remote adb shell app and allow network debugging.
Using OnePlus games as an example:
To disable the app, enter: pm disable-user --user 0 com.oneplus.gamespace
To enable the app, go to settings/apps, find the app and select enable.
To uninstall the app for the user, enter: pm uninstall --user 0 com.oneplus.gamespace
To reinstall the app for the user, enter: pm install-existing com.oneplus.gamespace
Install "remote adb shell" https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgutman.androidremotedebugger
Then connect via IP to your shield, port is 5555. So much easier than mucking around with a PC.
You would need to allow USB debugging in developer settings. Than you can use this app to connect to your tv remotely and execute command
pm uninstall -k --user 0 LAUNCHER PACKAGE NAME
You need to know package name of your default launcher which you will find in app's info screen in settings. Also I recommend to install alternative launcher before uninstalling the default one.
With or without root, this guide from xda should work
As for adb, you really dont need a computer. All you have to do is enable USB Debugging from Developer options and use this app from the playstore. For the ip address and port, just enter "localhost" and "5555", respectively.
For thea force close app on exit, enable "Do not keep activities" from the bottom portion of Developer option. From the same area, set "Limit background processes" to "No background processes". Beware that this may affect the performance of some apps. If something feels buggy suddenly, try reverting the setting back.
You need a remote ADB shell, such as this .
Or you can use Easy Fire Tools for most commonly used commands.
It should work yes. Put this app on your phone or side load it to the mk box: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgutman.androidremotedebugger
Enable developermkde on mixbox and USB debugging/network debugging. Type in your mibox up address and 5555 port and type the write_secure_setting command. Done.
Try this. Sideload Remote ADB shell https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgutman.androidremotedebugger Then run it in Oculus TV and connect to 127.0.0 1 on port 5555. It should ask you for authorization. Accept it and then tell me if it works for you. Make sure you activate ADB over TCPIP first by your computer. Let me know!

It's been a while since I've done this, but I had to use something called Sixaxis Pair Tool to make my DS4 controller ready to pair with something other than a PlayStation.

I also used an app on my phone called ADB Remote shell to get the Fire TV's MAC address.

I'm goofing off at work or I'd give you more detailed instructions. This is all I remember though. You should be able to google the rest.
Do the 2nd gen devices work with bluetooth controllers? I thought they only used WiFi Direct but, again, my memory sucks.
I haven't tried this myself, but if you have another android device available, you could try this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgutman.androidremotedebugger
There's no way to do as you describe without another device (computer, phone, or otherwise).
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgutman.androidremotedebugger and connect to localhost. It's free
Unless you are transferring something from the PC to the Shield then just use Remote ADB Shell app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgutman.androidremotedebugger&hl=en_GB
Set IP address to localhost 127.0.0.1 and port to 5555. Enter your commands. They don't need to start with adb or shell, so "adb shell wm size 3840x2160" would just be "wm size 3840x2160".
Sweet! I was looking for how to do this, since you can do it for normal 2D android.
Going to try to do it remotely while in the GearVR and see if I can change scaling on the fly!
How does it look for 360 video? can't wait to try it!
I still would like global force AA options though!
Now someone with S8/note8 tell us how much you can push supersampling!
Connect ADB over Network, like from mobile or tablet, use this app:
I need to lower the res since my ram is only 3gb I wanna lessen the ram usage on my software, since I cannot control my resolution manually.
Here are the apps that I'm checking
Here are the channels that I watched

I don't know if it works on my tablet but I hope it can.
You can enable native gesture navigation with any 3rd party launcher using adb. It resets after each reboot but you can re-enable again but you need a PC though. This is the way I do it:
- Install any 3rd party launcher, I use Action Launcher, then enable it as your default launcher.
- Go into Developer settings (if you don't know, Google is your friend) and enable USB debugging
- On a PC go to https://jolanrensen.github.io/WebADB-tcpip/ and plug in your phone, follow instructions and leave the port as 5555 and this will enable ADB over WiFi. You can unplug your phone after.
- Install this app from play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgutman.androidremotedebugger. This enables adb over WiFi, we are going to use it internally on our own phone though so we can enter adb commands without a PC needing adb & fastboot installing.
- Open the Remote ADB Shell app you just installed and enter 127.0.0.1 in the first input field, then 5555 in the second one. Click Connect.
- Accept the security warning, I chose to always trust this device.
- When the terminal appears, enter this adb command: cmd overlay enable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.gestural
- You should now have native gesture support on your 3rd party laucher. Every time you reboot it will reset so you need to go to the website and enable adb over wifi, then open the app and enter the command again. I saved the command on my phone so that I can paste it back in as needed.
If you already have adb and fastboot installed on your PC then you probably know all this already, you can obviously just use the adb command in terminal on your PC instead.
It is called remote ADB shell insert IP address and you are good to go.
Use Remote ADB Shell (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgutman.androidremotedebugger).
I use a free app on my phone called Remote ADB Shell.
