Onlive Universal Controller Not connecting? Bluetooth. - HTC Sensation

So i just recieved my sensation 4g today and got it updated to ICS.. which will allow me to play console like games on my phone when im away from home sounds great
i go to pair my Universal Onlive Wireless Controller it pairs and trys to connect says its connected and then disconnects ive rebooted and paired and unpaired many times and it still wont work..
anyone know whats going on?

Sense 3-4 has an incomplete Bluetooth stack, no reason why, just means its not compatible with most game controllers.
As its a software issue, flash CyanogenMod 9 Nightlies will make the phone compatible with almost all Bluetooth devices, as cyanogen has a complete Bluetooth stack, Opensensation should be fine, but CyanogenMod official would be best

ah ok im still S-ON but rooted and recoveried.. can i still install cm9? or opensensation? could you guide me on how to get the required firmware installed in a noob friendly way? or do i need to be S-OFF ?
and why cant the stacks be added to sense 3-4? like modded somehow..?
thanks for helping
EDIT: got it!! unlocked and s-off'd

I'm unsure as to why the stacks are incomplete, probably something to do with getting you to use HTC accessories,
Now that you have CM9, Nintendo Wii controllers will work with an app like Wiimote, these are great for playing game boy emulators, as long as you own the game its not illegal, I still have Pokemon Emerald
PlayStation 3 controllers should also work

CyanogenMod + Wii Controller IME works!

I just wanted to inform those who did not know or test this, but CyanogenMod 6.1 works with Wii Controller IME. I just finished playing Kirby on Gameboid.
My apologies if anyone has recently posted about this, I just got over excited and wanted to share.
You Need:
CM 6.1
Wii Controller IME
Wii Controller
Happiness and a child within you to play the classics
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=950721 Video of me using it somewhere in this post.... The first post to be exact since I started that thread to... lol
Now we just HDMI out....

Nice! Hopefully, and presumably this will work with CM7 whenever it comes out because it uses a different Bluetooth stack?
You should make a youtube video showing it off I NEED THIS! lol
Wow lol thats pretty cool
Ok... so now I will have to play with porting the cm bt stack to cog.

dg messed with bluetooth stacks a while back and every time reverted back to the samsung stack.
cyanogen is good but as far as i can tell has problems on galaxy s phones. cm7 should be better and i believe there is a port out there somewhere of a cm7 beta
The steps to installing that port are ridiculous though, will wait till they have a stable version out.........probably 2012, yeah i can complain.......i know its not easy and they arent being paid........just takin so long because no one wants to do it....and i dont blame them lol. Still someone should post a video about being able to use Wiimote with Cyanogen on Cappy.........will probably be featured on android central or Engadget........its big news since there isn't a video showing it off at all
Hmm
The steps for me are as follows:
Flash to stock
Flash reoriented kernel 3.5
Flash CM 6.1 BETA 3
if rebooting occurs then reflash the kernel
then all is well
And would you guys like me to upload a video of it working?

it may re-spark some interest in getting this to work for other roms.

[Q] wiimote?

One of the biggest reasons I'm aiming for an android phone is the emulators.
I would love to be able to play nes/snes/n64 etc...
I have seen that you can pair a wiimote with a fair amount of android phones, but phones running sense are incompatible from what I've seen.
If the bootloader stays locked for good (no custom roms) is it still possible to get around this?
Or maybe someone could test this with sense 3.0 when they get their sensation.

Your evo doesn't use 3.0 Bluetooth it still uses the old one HTC put in their phones. Someone with a sensation will need to test this. Ports don't use the same Bluetooth as the sensation.

Can you post proof of this?
or proof that htc hasn't updated their bluetooth stack to allow it to function with wiimotes?
It has been like that since HTC Hero and it isnt gonna change until u put out sense

MHL Adapter and Sixaxis Controller App

*Ignore the Sixaxis part. Does anyone know of any BT controllers/gamepads besides the wiimote that will work with ARHD in conjunction with MHL, or just at all??*
Does anyone know what ROMs both of these will work with?
I'm currently running ARHD 3.6.9 and I know the sixaxis will not work on it, but I haven't gotten my MHL adapter in yet to test it out.
I'm assuming ICS and CM7 will probably work with both.
Anyone know off the top of their head?
I don't know of any other Bluetooth contollers that will work with HTC Sense. There's something about their Bluetooth stack that doesn't play nicely with contollers or any HID for that matter. I can also sadly confirm that all of the ICS roms out there still don't work with the Sixaxis because they are all based off of a leaked Sense rom. That's why I gave up on Sense a while ago. There's nothing I miss about Sense that I can't download as a third party app from the market. Sorry I couldn't have better news. Maybe someone could tell us if that new OnLive controller works with Sense, and hopefully not just for OnLive.

[Q] List of ROMs with HDMI/MHL working

Has anyone had any luck tracking down a decent ROM (much preferably one as close to vanilla android as possible) that actually still has working MHL? I've done a good bit of searching through most of the individual ROM threads and it seems like this is something that is hardly ever mentioned. I realize that it's missing in CM, much to my sadness as that has been my best experience with a custom ROM thus far. need something that works with my appradio 2!
I'm on $droyd$'s jellybean nonsense build 6 right now and it's not bad, but still too HTC-y for my tastes (plus i'm on hboot 1.14.0004 right now so no wifi for me )

Dark jelly s edition supports OTG im using bubba kernel along with this... Will check the MHL availability and will post back...
Cheers
This interests me too. In my test of different ROMs I found that trick droid and viper work but make the phone freeze after the mhl cord is removed. Black bean, avatar, jellybam and codename lungo don't work with mhl. None of the awesome cm based ones are supposed to work with hdmi
I keep going back to nonsense which has since been closed. I only have version 4 and version 6 seems to be unavailable for download. Now after almost 5 months as my daily driver I started having Bluetooth issues and I have to load music via USB from the recovery since that must have been removed from it.

I have the same problems, freezing when disconecting mhl cord y trick droid and viper. And with trickdroid 10.x.x there is no output.
I also have opened thead in Q&A, to see if Torxx can help us with trickdroid 10.x.x

[Q] Infuse 4g 4.1.2 Question

Hello all, so I have rooted and used a few roms on my phone, but went back to stock so the video recorder worked properly. But the camera issues have taken a back seat. I am a trucker and sit for hours at loading docks, so thought Id get some emulators, and a wii mote and classic controller.
First off my phone is on Rogers in Canada, model sgh-i997R, firmware 2.3.3, kernal 2.6.35.7-i997ruxkg3-cl366622, build number gingerbread.uxkg3
My questions are : Seems the last last OS to support wiimotes is 4.1.2. Am I correct in this?
Through searching, I have found these roms:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1859208&highlight=+4+1+2 which seems dead with broken links.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1954527&highlight=+4+1+2 seems ok
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1874000&highlight=4+1+2&page=45 which is locked, and last posts are talking bout just barely getting it to boot, doesnt seem too stable.
Am I missing any? I realize its an older OS so my options may be limited.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
Edit: Also going to install a Tab 2 into my car, and will be using phone to tether it to for wifi, so good tethering capabilities is also important in a rom. Any suggestions?

Because from what I am reading, the last OS version to support a wiimote is 4.1.2
4.2 and higher no longer works with a wiimote. I have froyo now but it doesnt support it either. Something about samsungs bluetooth stack doesnt let it connect.

I'd say flash 4.2.2 and try it out for yourself. If it doesn't work, it isn't hard at all to flash back to 4.1..
