Wireless bluetooth Controller for the sensation? - HTC Sensation

Hello everyone, i tried searching on the search bar to see if anyone have posted on this, but couldn't find anything. Was just wondering if anyone here successfully got wireless controller working on the sensation. It works on the Gnexus, and i can confirm this as my friend plays games using the controller! cheers~

If your rooted just download sixaxis controller. If not and you have a Wiimote laying around give that a try. When I had my sensation, wiimote worked great for emulators and ok for some android games. Just some though..
Update: almost forgot, I used wiimote controller from the play store, it's free.

You can't connect any BT controllers like DS3 or WiiMote due to BT Stacks that comes with Sense.

but you can with AOSP ROM

So basically i'd have to use AOSP based ROMs right? virtuous inquisition, hypernonsense, etc?

[APP] WiimoteController

Hey everyone, just finished installing the 2.2 froyo leak and was wondering if anybody had tested the wiimotecontroller application with it.
I know previously, the incredible couldn't use this program due to problems with bluetooth stack but I wasn't sure if this update would fix it. Going to test it later on but was wondering if anybody had already tested it.
Were you able to test?

Yeah unfortunately the application doesn't recognize the Bluetooth
Lets hope Cm6 works out all the bugs soon.

Well, supposedly any sense ui messes with the bluetooth. I saw a few people running CM5.0.4 on the incredible that were able to use the wiimotes.
Why in the world would sense ui affect bluetooth's ability and functionality?
Wiimotes work on CM6 test 8!

Really? Oh well isn't CM 6 vanilla?
Man, this is a major bummer. I was really hoping it would work now. I like Sense a lot, and I use a lot of the Sense widgets, but I really want to use a wireless controller to play games on my phone. I guess I gotta use CM6, but I dunno if it's worth it. >:|

N64oid

Didnt see a thread in the Incredible forums regarding this amazing app, so i figured i should make one.
It is essentially a n64 emulator... and it rocks! Mario 64 works flawlessly.
Anyone else find any good running games?
You can also play with the Wiimote, and it works amazingly! (if on a nonsense rom) Mario has never been so fun.
I'm playing smash bros with my wii controller. Awesome!

I am using OMFGB 2.3 rom, and the wiimote works flawlessly. I highly recommend it. I don't think it works on normal sense roms though.

In using cm 7 so no problem there. Is a third party app required it is it a direct Bluetooth sync?

What ROM/Kernel combo are you guys running to get it smooth? I tried Mario Kart and it was like 3fps
Wiimote will work on aosp roms but not sense based roms so cm7, miui, and omfgb it will work
You will need to grab a wiimote app from the market but its free app.
Also for some games running slow turn frameskip to 10 for better performance

[Q] Cant get wii remote to work with TBOLT

me and my kids always used to play emulator games with a wii remote on my droid x. No matter what rom i used it always worked. Now with my tbolt no matter which Wii app im using or which tbolt rom im using, sense or senseless, it will not work. Does anyone know of any wii controller app and tbolt rom combo that it will work. Thanks in advance.
NOTE: Most Wii remote apps say that they will not work with Sense or Motoblur. I could get them to work with motoblur. Hopefully I can do the same with Sense
I used Wii Controller IME in the past on a Backflip, haven't tried yet on the TB though.

Pretty sure I tried that one and it didn't work. Will try again

wiimote ime does not work. thanks though
It will work as soon as a aosp rom comes out. Sense Bluetooth stacks sucks
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
tried Tesla Coil rom last night and couldn't get it to work
but i guess it's because it's still using the sense bluetooth stack?
the senseless roms that are out right now aren't 100% senseless?
The problem is to so called "senseless" roms right now are still based on sense but have a majority of the apps. until a fully built-from-source rom if built, we are going to be out of luck,
Been working fine on cm7 alpha

CM7 is the only working rom at the moment that you can do this with.

can't wait for more to come

[Q] Wiimote controller on Thunderbolt?

Has anyone successfully gotten any of the Wiimote controller apps to work on their Thunderbolt? Supposedly all of these apps are not compatible with HTC Sense, but I wonder if it would work with a non-Sense ROM (or deSensed version) out there. I'm running BAMF 1.6.2 and loving it, but would like to try playing some emulators with a wiimote.
Thanks.
I'm running CM7 and it works great! Caution, though, CM can be a bit quirky at times. May not be for daily use.

It will work with aosp roms like cyanogen. Non-sense roms are still sense based but with rosie and HTC apps removed. It won't work on any of those

Has anyone got the wiimote to connect with their infuse? I would really like to use it with n64oid but it just wont work! Any ideas??

not compatable with the samsung bluetooth stack, if you want to downgrade to bt2.1 it might work but i ont really know how to do that. better off waiting for cm7

what's there to kid about. many phones can connect to the wii mote. search the market. there are a few app that accomplish syncing a wiimote to android. unfortunately the wii mote is not compatible with the Samsung bt3.0 stack. cm7 is bt2.1 and fixes that problem.

umm wii mote + hdmi+ smartphone + sega emulator = portable entertainment and a way to make friends envious. it is a common request actually and its great for travel and parties (my friends are geeks-hence me frequently visiting a cell phone forum) and it is great especially if you have kids or a nephew (I have 2 nephews)
This sounds awesome. Any other non-conventional devices connect to the phone?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA Premium App
well the wii mote doesn't work on the infuse(works on most other androids) , but you can use a standard mouse and keyboard to game and navigate the ui. there are some game controlers that work but I can't remember which ones. search the sgs sections if you are interested.
Awesome, keyboard/mouse would come in handy considering these come with HDMI adapters, tomorrow will be a fun day. Lol

Anyone know of a way to change the Bluetooth stack manually because I had it working on cm7 captivate........
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
CM7 uses "googles bluetooth stack which is why it works. This might point someone in the right direction as I have no idea on how to change it.
On all non AOSP kernels the "Bluez" Stack has to be cooked into it. It's tougher than..., well I don't want to mention it.... and easier done with CM which is based off of AOSP.
Same with Sense roms as well, which is why I had such a hard time bouncing between AOSP and sense roms when I had my N1.....
Plus with our HDMI output, wouldn't it be just as easy to use the onscreen buttons on the phone even though there will be an overlay on the main screen...?
Well I got it to connect to my Infuse (and Touchpad). All the keystrokes are detected. Only problem is that they don't translate in N64oid or Tiger Snes--as if they aren't working.
Anybody find a workaround?

Most emus with external controller support have the option to disable the controller overlay. Doesn't do you any good to not have the overlay without external input though, but I have tested this via HDMI output on the *-oid emus
havent tried wii mote, but i have successfully connected a ps3 controller & used it with psx4droid & snesoid
