Just got the HTC One S from costco last wednesday and I just wanted to report that my wii remote works using the "Wiimote Controller" app in the market. It had trouble finding the wiimotion plus controller but worked just fine with the original wiimote.
I only tested it in Snesoid so far and was able to play ken griffey jr's winning run.
I did root my phone, but I don't know if this made a difference. I just know that I could never get my myTouch slide (with sense, of course) to pair up with the wiimote until I installed CM6/7.
Hope this helps someone out there, because I looked for a bit on google and couldn't find any reports of it working on Sense UI + ICS other than the disclaimer on the app site that says "most HTC devices" don't work. I wonder if any of the other wiimote drivers work. They gotta be based on the same code anyway, right? I guess HTC got their bluetooth pairing issues fixed.

I saw this in youtube and it's pretty cool!
Yea we've discussed this in the Transformer forums. Download the PC and Android Version. You have to connect it to your PC first to read the MAC address. Input the MAC address into the Android App and your done. At that point you just press the HOME button and it syncs up.
I haven't tried it yet as I am out of town (and don't own a PS3 anymore). I comtemplated about running over to a gamestop and picking up a PS3 controller just for giggles for emulators.
I have a Daltek (Nintendo wii Wireless bluetooth) but it is gimmicky and cheap feeling. While it does work right, it requires you to find a toothpick or similar to jab the SYNC button on the back. AND it seems to contantly eat batteries even when it is off. Every time I go to use it (after a few days since prior usage), it is dead.
The transformer will natively use a WIRED 360/PS3/PC gamepad but not wireless without this program.
haven't tried this either but I read on some other forums that few phones are supported.
need to run cm7 or cm7 custome roms to get it to work on g2x
or miui right?
I use it with the CM7 nightly. Works great. Except sometimes it doesn't connect, but turning the bluetooth off and then back on fixes it. I would like to know too if it works with any other custom roms besides the cm7 based ones.
wow.... why is there not a legit system like this yet?.... with more then one controller... I think it would take off like a wild fire... the ability to turn your phone into a multiplayer platform that plugs into your tv... This would blow anything sony, microsoft or netendo is working up out of the water. Come on google get your butt in gear! Why is it that the community has to hack things to come up with great ideas like this.

We can use it with any game now?
Yea I went out and purchased a White PS3 controller. Supposedly it works with 360 wireless controller too.
But the PS3 DualShock works great. On my Transformer (Tegra II) I have it OC'd to 1.4ghz and the PSX emulator FPse works flawlessly. With HDMI Out, it could work with your TV too.
The PS3 controller kinda sucks because the way it is programmed to work with your device. You need a PC to pair the controller to the MAC address of your phone/tablet... so you can't easily go back and forth between them. It would be nice if the DualShock Android App developer made a Android MAC Mapper... but it requires special drivers and stuff to sync up.
Very cool though. The controller works well. Much better then those cheap Chinese knockoff bluetooth controllers and such.

That's likely the flaky Bluetooth on the G2X not the App.
I have problems with the buttons working on faux 1.3.1 oc with Trinity 2.6.32.45 1.56 ghz. Anyone else having problems or is it just the emulator that I am using?

Hi everyone, I hope I am not wasting your time with this question but I have just gone out and bought a Q2 Blueant headset and I have a HTC desire HD, on the side of the box it says it works with android and the guy at the shop said it works great..........the thing is if I say phone commands it says this phone is not supported, I have installed Vlingo and it does not pick up on my voice unless i speak into the phone and it just does not want to use the headset even though in the box the headset comes with says to use Vlingo with it!!! I don't get it!!
I have made sure the voicedialer.apk works and it does but not through the headset either, is there something I am missing? its driving me up the wall!!
Cheers for any help everyone.
If anyone can help at all it would be awesome, the people at vlingo are just emailing me what info they have on their site even though I asked them not to do that.....probably why they are doing it and blueant still won't get back to me. Someone else has to have tried to use Bluetooth.....

Have you downloaded the blueant app? I have the Q1 and the T1 and they both work without issue. Also are you on a custom rom?
Thanks for the reply,
Yeah I have tried 2 custom roms now android revolution and core droid, I just want the headset to do more than answer and decline calls, I want full hands free feature with this thing, I have already gotten a $350 fine for using my phone so I bought the q2 which says it does all this and then when I say phone commands into the headset it just says this phone is not supported, I have gone through all the settings I can think of and nothing!
If there is a Rom you know of that will work perfect then Ill install that, I don't care what rom I am using I just want to be able to do my work while driving and any email I send to blueant or vlingo gets me nowhere.
EDIT: Yeah I downloaded the blueant app, it has done nothing for me unfortunately

Not real sure to be honest. I use it only for phone calls. I don't even have it read texts as that can be trouble causing. One of the main issues that when the screen is locked nothing will work till it is unlocked. What you are wanting may not be possible at the present time. Ill test a few things out on my end and see what I can find. But no promises
Cheers mate,
Ill be interested to know if yours works.
I did just get this email from Vlingo also.

But why my headset says my phone is not supported I still don't know.
One of the biggest issues I have found is the lock screen. Once locked it doesn't allow any commands untilled unlocked.
That wont bother me too much, when im in the car its connected to USB and it will be unlocked most of the time.
i have a headset that i want to pair with my Charge, but for some reason when i try to pair it, it keeps telling me that the device returned a code that was incorrect,
first off the headset has no method of input, and second the phone never asked for a code, ive searched everywhere and cant find answers just people with the same issue that just decide to give up and get a new headset.
the Issue was there since EE4 (the version my phone had when i purchased it at the VZ store)
I now have EP4 with tweakstock, tried it with stock rom and still same issue
I know that the 2.1 should automatically exchange the codes is there a way to manually put in the code to the charge?
the head set works fine on a flip phone my brother uses, and im not sure if this is specific to the droid charge, or if this is Android in general as i dont have any way to test it.
any suggestions other than "buy a new one" would be great
oh come on! anyone?
See if another, newer headset has the same problem. If it happens again, it's the phone's bluetooth. If it pairs successfully then it's just an incompatible headset.
Really, there's no other way of testing. Just because one headset works with one phone, doesn't mean it'll work with another, but this isn't a common problem since Bluetooth headsets are mostly universal.

Hi. I own an HTC Sensation 4G flashed with OpenSensation's latest rom. Before I flashed to the latest, I was able to play games on my phone with this app with no issues, everything worked fine. I updated to the latest (6.21.12 at the time) and all of the sudden, I couldn't use my controller anymore! I'm not sure if this is a bug with the rom, or if I'm just doing something wrong, but could someone give me some sort of sense of direction? I feel gypped because I just bought the app the other day and can't get a refund.
I simply cannot get my TF101 to recognize my Sixaxis controller's right analog stick. I've seen this asked before, but as the other thread was nearly a year old, I decided against necroing.
Some potentially relevant info:
Using Sixaxis Controller app with a first-party PS3 Dualshock 3 Sixaxis controller (yes, this tablet has been rooted)
Device Firmware: 9.2.1.27
Android version: 4.0.3
Did anyone ever figure out a way to fix this?
Hmm, I dont think I had an issue with the right analog stick when I had mine set up. I will check it out when I get back home in a week. I dont have my PS3 controller with me and I am 1/3 of the way around the world from my house right now.
I have not had any issues in v27 Katkiss. Also v25 worked fine also for sixaxis app. Its been awhile since I was using ICS but I want to say I had major issues with bluetooth mainly when having wifi enabled. I would upgrade to Katkiss 4.31 since you are already rooted plus you will be blown away by Full HWA in JellyBean and beyond. Good luck!
