So there is a really cool app on the market for ps3 sixaxis controllers that lets you control any game (even ones without gamepad support) with a ps3 controller.
The Bluetooth stack that is included in stock based roms for our device doesn't allow pairing with controllers like the wiimote and the sixaxis....
However cm7 does I Clyde a compatible Bluetooth stack and I can pair it and play Nova 3 with my ps3 Controller.. yet, HDMI doesn't work in cm7 yet... so I can't let my phone just be my game console...
And in stock the HDMI works but doesn't have a compatible bt stack..
Do any devs know how to replace the stock Bluetooth stack???
Sadly we can't make anything
unless LG goes open soucer ... and that is not gonna happen
why? no one knows

pocket pc as a bluray remote for ps3

now that would be a killer app!
That's IR, right? Not the system's bluetooth?
http://www.novii.tv/
this works as remote for most my home electronics
it's ir only and ir range of mine and most pda's is very very poor
PS3 uses propriatary bluetooth, no iR. So the only option right now is to buy the PS3 remote, unless someone can open the sony propriatary bluetooth.
PS has no iR, all works based on bluetooth, hence the question
Using a pocket pc as a bluray remote for PS3 over bluetooth would indeed be awesome.

id rather go the other way and use my dualshock 3 as a controller for my PPC emus
Any luck on this? There's gotta be a way to get them to sync up some how and allow control options.
This really will be useful, I mean how many people can controll their PS3 with their cellphones =] ?
I dont know much of how to make such an app but id gladly contribute with graphics and/or testing if someone has a way to do this.
I really don't think this would be possible or there would be bluetooth drivers for getting the SIXAXIS controller to work on the PC... there are drivers but you have to plug it in with the USB cable so obviously no one has found a way to dig into the bluetooth stack on the ps3.
EDIT: I'm sure it's "possible" but improbable based on my above statement
I have the logitech diNova which uses bluetooth to contol your pc and ps3

that's a keyboard right? that brings up an interesting concept! Just have the ppc bind to ps3 as a keyboard and make a little touch app that passes keystrokes?
I think the whole challenge here is to get the bluetooth on the ppc to accept connections as peripheral device services.
Another vote for awesome. I have a Logitech BT keyboard that I use on the PS3 and PC. The keyboard has full control over the PS3 including movie playback.
any news? i would really appreciate a keyboard emulator on pocket pcs using bluetooth. a special playstation 3 hack would be the burner.
I know you can connect your bluetooth headset to the PS3... Should be able to use on chat with friends but I've never tried.... Sony also released a headset for online games that can connect to mobiles so I wonder if anyone has tried connecting their sony remote to pc, would probably need drivers though to use properly if at all...

If you look at their website, it looks like that needs custom hardware that connects to your AV equipment. It doesn't really explain how it controls it.

It's possible and has been done. The SIXAXIS has been in use for a while now. You can even have the rumble/vibrate function (dualshock controllers) work on a PC recently.

Someone please come out with an app for ppcs!! Blackberries are about to have this product already.

So yesterday I downloaded Nesoid and a handful of ROMs for my Captivate. I had some fun playing them, but using the on screen virtual keyboard was really hard and it covered most of the gaming action. So I see that the new psx4droid supports wiimote. So I emailed the developer of Nesoid and suggested that he add that capability to his too and that other than that its a great emulator. He emailed back and this is his response
You can use other apps on the Market. But please enable input method in Nesoid settings.

What does this actually mean? Is there another app that I have to download and install first to get the wiimote to connect to my phone via bluetooth?
I dont have a wiimote yet, and before I go buy one, I'd like to know exactly how it works, if it will.
Search for "Wiimote controller" on the market, should work.
You can use a few bluetooth gamepads with android. One being
MSI Bluetooth Gamepad (BGP-100) which is a weird kinda swivel thing. I am going to gut a SNES controller and put the BGP-100 into it. It has been done before and everything seems to fit fine.
There is also another bluetooth controller made for blackberry's that works with android. It is vertical gamepad with a trigger control. Seems pretty nice.
I think you have to buy a market app to get the drivers to make the above 2 gamepads work.
Also as mentioned you can use a wiiremote as a gamepad for android. I have been looking for a wii classic controller + wii combo, so it does not have to be tethered to a normal wii controller to work. I want small and portable bluetooth with a dfecent amount of buttons that is why I am going with the SNES form factor.

Free, although it does say there isn't galaxy s support....so it might not work.
wiimotes currently do not work on the SGS phones because of the bt3.0. not sure on the other BT controllers
Are there any controllers that can be plugged in? Just wondering for flights...
Well I emailed the developer of Wiimote Controller and asked if they could update to support Galaxy S phones. This is there response:
Hello,
thank you for your feedback.
I don't think this will be possible with the current way Samsung's software is handling bluetooth.
Best regards,
Piki

Doesnt sound good for us getting to use a wiimote as a gamepad
Trying to play Nesoid with onscreen vitrual controller sucks, its too hard and I'm afraid of breaking my phone. Every time I get into the game and start tapping A or B rapidly I can feel it flex and creak in my hands.
Just wondering in anybody has made progress on getting a bluetooth controller for the captivate/galaxy s?
Ive been looking into it...and came to a bunch of dead ends aswell :sigh:
Sent from my Vibrant using XDA Ap
Please let me know if anyone finds a controller that works.
Thank you,

Speaking of games...
I wasn't able to find any in the market but I'm rooted so I know I can find games from other sources.
Are there any games like Alone in the Dark (horror genre) or fantasy role playing that would have the same type of graphics you'd see in WoW that I can put on my Captivate?
I was wondering if we could start a compatibility list with what bluetooth game pads work with the SGS4G! I know the wiimotes don't work yet, but what about others? (360 w/receiver, zeemote, ps3, etc)

GB 2.3.4 has native usb accessory support, so ideally any usb gamepad should work. Havent tested so I dont know.
Can I use a bluetooth wimote or bluetooth playstation controller with the Note 10.1. I would like to play some old Nintendo games I used to play back in the day with the emulators. I read that you can use bluetooth controllers when playing games which I would prefer since the whole on screen controls don't appeal to me and I find it difficult. My question is do I need root in order to set this up or can I do it with stock on the 10.1. I heard of some sixaxis app or something but don't know if I need it. looking for some help since I'm sure others on this board know a lot more about this than I do. If anyone has any other advice for me...I'm all ears. Thanks

I'm not sure about the Wii mote, but the Sixaxis app is specific to playstation controllers I believe and requires root so i doubt it would work on the stock 10.1.

+1 for this query.
On the TF101, you just needed to connect a PS3 pad via the USB port and press some buttons to verify it worked. This in turn synced the controller. After this switching on the tablets blue tooth and pressing the PS logo on the PS3 controller would allow it to work via blue tooth. No root or sixaxis app needed. I'm guessing that won't work here?
What about purchasing the usb connector kit for the Galaxy Tab 10.1 that supposedly works with the Note 10.1. Get the connection kit plug in the usb controller into the usb port on the connection kit and see if it allows it to synch with bluetooth like you listed above. I would love to know if this works.
If you want to play Nintendo games I suggest the NES.emu emulator from the play store. It will discover wii motes in app and you can use them to play. Works very well with no root.

PS3 Sixaxis controller needs root and the app. You can always use an xbox controller wired or wireless (with dongle via usb and app) more work though. Or connect a bluetoothe keyboard or wired keyboard.
As for emulators I recomend that you get droidemu lite and support the developer and get the full support as this emulator has all worthy emulators in it except n64 and ps1. He is very responsive to issues and fixed issues in a timely manner.
I just tested with mine and I was able to connect a Wii Remote using WiimoteController in less than 5 minutes. I tried it for a few minutes in GTA3, no problems so far.
Can confirm Sony PS3 wireless bluetooth controller works with SixAxis but requires root. Aside from the convenience of wireless controller it also extends the life of your port connector from wear and tear.
I wonder what game controller that work with our O3D?
have anyone had any success with XBOX360, PS3 controller etc?

Have you tested PS3 controller or Wii Controller connected to our O3D via bluetooth? Are you sure it's a success?
How? Afaik, our O3D stock ROM bluetooth stack protocol is lack of HID implementation and only cyanogenmod solve it.

I tested with the sixaxis dual shock 3 from my friend, worked perfectly and the buttons on snesdroid and tiger arcade works fine, but i dont remember the version of sixaxis, i did this test with the port of Xbasall!
see if any of your friends have controlle to lend and you can test it, are the only ways! have to see the version so sixaxis because some do not install, there is another control application which do not remember the name that only works on honeycomb!
ah, I tested a OTG cable, but lg3D does not have a kernel with support for it, the processor support this function, but dont exist kernel with this !
good luck !!
Nice to hear that.
