Wiimote - HTC Sensation

Now that some of you have gotten your hands on this device, could you try the wiimote app to test if it works? I know other htc devices haven't been able to connect, but with the new sense, I'm curious to see if it works. Thanks!

I am desperate to know this. I have seen people playing mario 64 with a wiimote and have yearned for that since. But dont really want a motorola to do it. Its not a deal breaker, but it probably should be.

Positive I read someone said it won't work. But if I had a Wii I'd give it a try.

More than likely won't work. Have not seen a bluetooth 3.0 phone work yet. You can check in the g2x forum I think they got the zmote to work.

For somereason devices running sense or touchwiz have never been able to use wii controllers. On my g2x I can only use it if I'm running cm7 or another aosp based rom

According to HTC's bluetooth spec it should work. Sense 3.0 BT stack has support for the bluetooth serial port profile which is I think what the wiimote uses. Have to wait and see, but there is hope.

Anybody able to test this?

Tested - Does not work.......
Hi guys, I tested this using the Wiimote Controller app by CCP [email protected] and can confirm that it would not pair with my Wii Controller.
If anyone has tried any of the other apps I'd be keen to hear from you as I'd love to be able to play all my old NES and SNES titles on my emulator on my new Sensation......

Damn...

I've got psx4droid working great as well and with full screen. I was hoping I could use the wiimote with it but that's a no-go for the time being. Can you give me the model number for your MSI controller?

Is the Gamepro app the only way to get the msi bgp100 to work with the tab? Just wondering because it cost a ridiculous 10 bucks.

I'm holding out for wiimote support on the tab so that I can use one of these:

Can someone put a photo? :]
Yeh gamepro is needed for the controller to work but it is worth it as now works with nesoid snesoid etc!

I'll give gamepro a shot. But before I can install that anyone know where I can get this msi gamepad? Dealxtreme is out of stock and I cant seem to find it anywhere else other than ebay where they're asking 130 bucks for it.
Did you guys have to tweak any settings to get it working smoothly?
I can get it to run but the games run so slowly making them unplayable.
I was running JM6 (now JME).
ROMS i tried were Megaman and Mortal Kombat in *.*bin format i think they where.
I had to UNECM the ROMS as per a n instruction i found online.

Wiimote

Still no way to connect the wiimote or playstation 3 remote VIA Bluetooth ? I want this sooo bad LOL

From my understanding Wii mote won't pair with anything running sense. It runs flawlessly on my hp touchpad. Maybe try a true AOSP or MIUI and see if it works there.
Do you mean this?

[Q] Cheap bluetooth gamepad

Is there a cheap console-like bluetooth gamepad that works with Android (not necessarily this phone in particular, as I don't know if it supports HID yet.
Also, is there one with joysticks that can be mapped to emulators?
EDIT: http://www.clove.co.uk/phonejoy-analog-android-game-controller I'm looking for something like this minus the expensive price tag.
I saw a post on redmond pie that is drivers for using a ps3 controller. I don't think it is yet compatible. Our Bluetooth protocol isn't supported. I suppose a dev would be able to make the changes to make it work though

personally i would use it for Gameboy, sega etc emulators.
I posted that before those drivers were released. I have a PS3 controller, and I guess I just have to wait for AOSP now.

Cheap Emulator Controller for P500?

I was wondering if there is a cheap controller/gamepad that you can use on your Optimus One? Or if there is an app I can get to let me use my Xbox controller, or iPod Touch as a controller. I find the virtual gamepad unusable for most games. I just want a cheap way to have a alternate gamepad. Any suggestions? Btw im using the Oxygen Rom. Thanks

I'm using the Wiimote Controller with CM7 based rom. It needs to be on nonstock rom based since there is something wrong with the bluetooth of stock roms. It works very well with the wiimote and also with the classic controller if you need more buttons.
The 6 axis controller compatibility checker says that it would work for the phone too but I havent tested it yet.
Thanks for the reply man. I actually just ordered a wiimote on ebay yesterday because I can use it on my ipod emulators. Its great now that i know it will work on my phone too! One question, I am on the Oxygen rom. Would bluetooth work on this or should I get CM7?

I can also recommend to have a look at Phonejoy (www.phonejoy.us), works with more than a hundred games and doesn't require root. So definitely worth checking out!
I have a big question, is it possible to manipulate touchscreen gestures with ie. a Wiimote or Sixaxis?? just like if they were a cordless mouse??
so for instance i could play GlowHockey with them???

He's talking about Bluetooth keyboards like this :
http://www.dealextreme.com/p/mini-b...ia-symbian-s60-cellphones-black-37863?item=52
It works well with CM7 based ROMs. And if the game you are playing is compatible with hardware keys, it will work well for you.
I have the same keyboard on the link, worked for me, but its form factor made it uncomfortable to use for long periods of time.
I shifted to Wiimote + Classic controller for playing old school games.
i dont now for moment !
later information you :B

Tried Sony PS3 Sixaxis Controller On Sensation

I bought a dualshock3 sixaxis controller today to use both on my computer and phone and tested it on my sensation. I used sixaxis controller app from play store to pair it with my phone. Unfortunately, sense roms (i'm using ViperS Sense4) does not seem to support the controller.. Sixaxis Controller app was unsuccesful to configure my bluetooth.
Then i tried a MIUI rom to see how senseless roms work with controller, and managed to pair devices with no errors, sixaxis controller app easily managed to connect the controller.
I do love sense, but i don't like playing games on touch screens.. :crying: And probably most of HTC users agree with me.
Why not jus get an xBox. Games on ur phone is just for killing time on the bus or at class in school.
Beamed from my Senny..
Or a PS3, seeing as you already have a controller. But thanks for the info.

I can't because i often change cities. I enjoy playing N.O.V.A, Modern Warfare etc., or PC games on Onlive on my phone, but prefer reading book or sth else on bus, or at class in school.

I feel your pain bro I switch to Cm9 for it to work
That's due to BT stack Bug in Sense. IDK if this can be corrected modifying the Rom or if it's kernel related.
Gaming on mobile is getting bigger and bigger by the min and I'm getting bored of ps3 but my phone with a ps3 controller is exciting iv got access to loads of ok games for no more than a 5er and access to most classic game and emulators I have more games on my phone than ps3 and I own a lot of games

It's not so much important, it's not hard to buy a new battery I have been using sensation for 7-8 months (bought second hand), and have been heavily playing games from then on. My battery is still the same though. The only thing i'm afraid of is an unexpected explosion because phone gets very hot while playing, especially when the brightness is set to high.
Btw the problem on Sense roms does not seem to be kernel related. I tested on different kernels and roms.. It much seems to be related to rom itself.. Maybe some modifications needed.. But i'm not a dev..
Try ViperS with Sebastian 1.5.2 and DS3 will work if you connect it to a HUB!!!
I know Sebastian's kernel.. But I could not Manage to get it worked yet. I tried all day long.. Will try different cables and hub. Have you tried the cotroller

You really should try the joystick controller and try to add a hub

That's because your controller is now paired with your friends PS3, whereas before it was paired to your phone.
"If not already done, you must manually pair the controller with your phone. This can be done using 'SixaxisPairTool', or with 'MotionInJoy' or the linux utility 'sixpair'. Your phones bluetooth address should be shown at the bottom of the main application window and will look something like 1A:3C:13:00:21:C2; you need to enter this number into the 'SixaxisPairTool' as shown. This process only needs to be done the first time a controller is used on a different device, so if you only use the controller on one phone, you will only need to do it once."
