Apache is a PPC not a smartphone and a joystick probably to play games. (kinda pointless if you ask me.)

mistake post please delete

Not pointless at all! I was trying to convince my friend to get a xv6700 because of the affordable price and the upgrades available on line and the one single thing that stopped him from buying it was that I couldnt find a gamepad that works with it. So he still listens to his cassette player walkman. He says a CD doesn't carry as much music. Sigh.
Also playing snes, mame, amiga, coleco emulators, etc etc on 6700 is a bit difficult. You are limited to those rpg games where you can take your time to make a move and not the games with real time action because of the button layout. And even though N64 emulators for ppc exist who the hell is going to brave to play it with the buttons on a 6700? Not to mention the hundreds and hundreds of games available on torrent sites for the ppc.
Thus the need for a gamepad.
Good luck amoraleite in finding one and let us know how your search went.

Yup! They finally did one, but I don't know how good it is. It appears to be a basic OGee Nintendo layout plus two buttons. Not cool being that the 6700 could probably play N64 and playstation games. Some PPC are too big to fit in it being that it was designed primarily for smartphones. But I believe the 6700 will fit in it and is in the compatibility list. Its going for 80 bucks, maybe one day soon it will be down to $30 on ebay or craig's or something.
Let the games begin! Or the testing or what ever you people do up in here.
Peace!

Actually this thing has been out since 2005 and you can buy it for cheap if you look for it. I just got one at a total of $42.48 almost half the price at ebay. Wait a few days because I just bought the last one. I cant find any other bluetooth game pads.
Heres a video of it in use.

My question is this. Can people use two bluetooth devices at the same time on a xv6700 running wm6? For example can I still use my bluetooth Plantronics p590 headset with this bluetooth gamepad at the same time? Should I start a new thread? Can I turn off the audio in the SNES emulator while playing Godzilla and listen to Big Daddy Kane's "RAW"? If folks dont know I will let you know when the gamepad comes in. I'm sure some one knows for sure.

I have this game pad and it works perfectly with my PPC-6700. It also fits perfectly in the gamepad. Also when I don't want to carry it around, I use the keyboard on the 6700 to play my games on Morphgear, Fburn, and FpseCE. To be able to use the keyboard for these emulators you need Emulamer's 6700 Multiple Key Press Fix. This is so the the 6700 can detect multiple keys being pressed.

If you are interested in alternatives to the MSI or Chainpus BGP100 bluetooth gamepad, google search "modded by bacteria" go to the "work in progress" section of his forums, and search for the thread "Re-housed Bluetooth controller". The creator of the site, Bacteria, will be transplanting the innards of the BGP100 into an SNES controller. Previously, he has transplanted it into a PS1 controller. It seams feasible to DIY into almost any controller housing.

AVRCP media control module (no A2DP needed, just want to remotely control media)

Hey guys,
Not sure if this exists, or if someone could point me to a product which does what I'm looking for. Basically, I want a device that will connect via Bluetooth to my HTC Uni, and use the remote control functions of AVRCP to allow me to pause/play/next/prev/etc. via this little remote control. I do NOT need the device to do A2DP, as I already hard-wire in the speakers.
I know there may not be much of a need, but I want this functionality for when I go snowboarding, and I keep my HTC Uni in my jacket pocket (in an aluminum case of course!). I already have headphones in my touque/hat, so they would be connected directly to my Uni, then I wanted a device that I could strap to my wrist or jacket which I could hit "next/prev track, etc."
I am thinking that without the A2DP streaming music, I might be able to save on battery, as the device would only be a "Bluetooth AVRCP Media Remote". I tried searching the net for the past 4 hours, but came up with nothing.
The only device that almost caught my attention was the Motorola S705 Bluetooth Soundpilot, but it has a headphone connection on it (I just want the AVRCP remote control functionality).
Now maybe I am dreaming, since I've never actually played with an A2DP/AVRCP device before, so I'm not even sure if the headset port on my Uni would become deactivated if an A2DP/AVRCP device were to connect with the phone.
EDIT: I've actually found a picture of the setup that I'm talking about from the official Bluetooth page:
(it's the 2nd pic, note the fine print: "* the audio stream is not handled in this profile"...what i need!)

It just refers to that you also need to have A2DP support. However, the two may not be separated - unless someone has managed to "hack" this.
If nothing else works, you might want to give a try to UPnP, along with a remote controllable player like Conduits Pocket Player. Note that it doesn't use AVRCP but UPnP and might only work via Wi-Fi (I haven't tested it over BT PAN).
See my UPnP Bible for more info.

Thanks for your reply Menneisyys,
Now I understand a bit more about how those technologies work, and although I wasn't in dire need of such a controller, I appreciate your information.
I do use CorePlayer, and I have heard that it supports AVRCP, but until I can get a controller-only piece of hardware, I probably won't keep looking into this (only to get my hopes up).
Wouldn't it be great though to have a small iPod-like device that could control your phone via BT? Think about the situations where you might have your phone wired to a nice speaker system, but are chilling outside. You wouldn't even have to aim the remote!
I am thinking too far outside of the box now though, and if I only had the means, time and most importantly, knowledge, to create such a device, I would be ALL over it!
Hopefully someone has read into this, and maybe we'll see such a device down the line....for now, it's more waiting time!

[REQ] HD2 as PS3 media control

Hi guys!
As a lot of other people, I use my PS3 more as a media center / Blu-Ray player, then I'm actually playing on it. Every time I sit down to watch a movie from my media server or a BD-disk, I'm annoyed of how bad the PS3-remote looks. Especially when my beautiful HD2 is always laying next to it.
So:
I was hoping that some of you geniuses here might have the same impression as me, and see the value in a "HD2 PS3 media control"-app, which uses Bluetooth.
I would think that it only needs directional buttons for maneuvering in menus, a OK-button, the "Playstation"-button and the 4 actionbuttons; X, O, [] and /\.
With so many PS3-owners in the world, I'd guess that this application would be quite "sellable" for the developer as well
Cheers, Eirik.

Would like it =D!

HD2 as PS3 media control
Hey
Go to mobilesrc.com and try Mobile Remote. Works pretty well on my Touch Pro 2. Didn't get my HD2 in the mail yet. Might not be exactly what your looking for but it works with the PS3.

hmm.. i'm watching this thread.. this could prove to be interesting..

Hi
Mobile remote is ugly .... and send me an error :10038 (Failed to load driver)
Another idea ?
Thx

I asked the dev already, Mobile Remote does not work with HD2 bluetooth stack.

I made a little "mock-up" of how this might look, and would enable us to control most of the PS3's functions with the HD2's brilliant touch screen.
Unfortunately I was neither allowed to post the picture, the link or even put the link to the picture in a code-box :-/

Anybody? ... anything?

anyone tried gremote?

Make phone a Bluetooth Receiver/Dongle?

Hey guys, I have a PS3, and I want to make its controller to work with my PC, thing is, it involves having an Bluetooth USB Dongle, which I don't. An example:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

Thing is my Xperia x10 has bluetooth, so why can't I make it receive the controller's signal and transmit it through USB? There must be a way to make it like a Bluetooth receiver. Do you guys know how?

wow, that is a custom software job for sure, one that is almost surely not going to work simply because the MotionJoy drivers are finnicky when it comes to bluetooth controllers.
Let me tell you from experience, you want to purchase a cheap USB dongle, one that is known to work with the MotionJoy ps3 drivers if you want any chance of getting your ps3 controller to work wirelessly with your PC. I got one for like $5-10 bucks. Save yourself the trouble and do the same.

=(
It would be soo interesting lol. But actually on the phone's part it's not that complicated, it just needs a software to make it a bluetooth receiver!

you have to install third party bluetooth apk in order to make it a receiver, you can find in at the market...cheers

I've searched for it, but without success. Which apk is it?

So as to not clutter the board with duplicate requests: I was wondering if this can be done on Windows Mobile as well? Would anyone know some apps/hacks that might enable this?

ds3 controller to non-bluetooth pc
Rooted android device > sixaxis controller app > then the droidmote app and Corresponding pc receiver

Trying to do the same but with just a regular generic phone gamepad. Any update to solutions involving this?

Game controller for fire HD 8

Hi,
Recently I bought my fire tablet and was wondering if there is a decent game controller that can work with it. Any suggestions would be nice.

I would like to know this too. Specifically, anyone get the newer xbox one bluetooth controller working with it?

i bought this one some weeks ago for my fire tv stick and it works also with the fire hd 10 2017 (i tested it only with 'Beach Buggy Racing' and 'Asphalt 8: Airborne'):
Eaxus Android Bluetooth Game Controller (search on ebay or amazon)
bluetooth connection is a bit weird as the buttons are labelled differently from the description but for the tablet i only needed to hold the home button as far as i remember.

Xbox One Controller works perfect wireless

I'm trying to get a 3rd party wired XBone controller working with otg on HD 8, but I can't figure it out. Do I have to wait for root?

I went and buy Gamesir g3s. You can use it on android Windows and ps3. It resembles PlayStation 3 dualshock controller. It's nice and work without a hitch. You can even use the controller as a mouse. It's great for games that support controller. I use it to play some of my PSP games. God of war chains of Olympus works ok on fire HD 8 there are some slowdowns within the game but controller works great.

I have a Moga Pocket which uses bluetooth and it's a pain in the ass. I prefer to use usb wireless controllers (which cost $10 or less) with a OTG adapter

i like the 8bitdo controllers. sn30 pro!

I bought myself the 8bitdo Zero controllers on Amazon and I love them!!! Have both the blue and red. Can't wait for the new ones that will be released at the end of this year. They're tiny but completely portable and perfect for NES, SNES, GBA and Genesis games on the go with my Fire HD10. Now if I could have a tiny portable N64 Controller I'd be very happy!
