Was doing some surfing trying to find some worth while tegra 2 games and stumbled upon the moga controller....Now ive seen one before but only on the galaxy....i did some skimming and saw that it is 2.3 capable....
please give me some good news guys:
can i use this ( or any bluetooth controller) with the g2x?
and for the record I am not rooted and am uncomfortable with the ps3 controller "trick/mod" as i feel it requires more tech savvy skill than i currently have.
thanks guys

Buy it where you can get a refund if it doesn't work and try it. You will have to use it either with firmware V21E and any ROM or V21Y with only stock LG ROM or a direct derivative of it.
Thanks for the reply. Hopefully this doesn't sound to dumb on my part...: but is there a controller that I can use that simply connects via Bluetooth?

If I remember correctly I always used my ps3 controller on the new baseband. Bluetooth works it's just headsets tend to not let you talk.
I prefer the ps3 controller. It is simple, just follow the directions .

Can anyone test to see if this works on the G2x? I would like to know as I would like to be able to use other controllers besides touch screen.
I would test myself but I don't currently have this phone but thinking on getting it.

Downloading it now.
Emulators + HDMI mirroring is one of the big reasons I got this phone.
Well, we know the O2x doesn't support it. I wouldnt be surprised if the bluetooth stack is similarly boned on the G2x, despite stock android.
Even if the G2x doesnt support it out of the box, there may be hope that cyanogen will support it in the future.

Nope just tested. Says it can't find Bluetooth and to make sure it is enabled... which it is.
First drivers needed to access the SD card, then no WiiMote.... damn...

Thank you for taking the time to test it though sad to hear it doesn't support it.
yeah those two issues are quite disappointing. maybe cyanogen can fix them :S
i'm thinking i will just stick with my n1 for now
I'd like to add the JS1 Zeemote also is not working. I had it working on N1. The Bluetooth connects but when I exit bluetooth settings it disconnects. I'm also using Bluezime so android can detect Bluetooth controller

Doesn't work for me either. This is highly upsetting to say the least. One of the biggest things I wanted to do with this phone was play Super Mario World hacks through HDMI with a wiimote. Oh well, phone is still a keeper easy. Hope it gets fixed.
Hey did anyone ever get a PS3 controller working with the N1?
zeemote works fine for me.
but i also can't connect to a wiimote.
where can u buy the Zeemote for g2x ?
the only one i can find is for the Nokia
so the prices are all over the place
can u tell me where u bought one and what the price was ?
amazon

i got the amazon one.
the nokia version works fine if you have bluez ime
the only thing i think is tied to a specific OS is the included games coupon, but it's expired anyway.

You have the Js1 working on G2x, if so how? I can connect Bluetooth fine but when I exit Bluetooth settings it disconnects automatically

Nevermind fixed my own problem. If anyone has similar problems with Js1 pm me and we'll get it straightened out

Awesome the 10 dollar one
Next question
does anyone know if the Wii remote problem is a hardware or software issue ?
because if it is software (Drivers) now that LG released all the source codes for this device, to should be easy for a developer to fix.
assuming we get any other developers then that CM7 dude to buy this phone
BUT CM7 and zeemote might be enough
it's because several phones(mostly touchwiz/sense phones, and LG phones) use non-standard bluetooth drivers.
replacing those with standard ones would fix it, but it's not as easy as switching a few files.

I can't find a $10 Zeemote on Amazon. How did you find it? I can only find a $10 article about the Zeemote from Tele-Service News. I sure hope you didn't accidentally buy that.
amazon uk has one for that price, but i don't know if they ship to the US(for a reasonable price)
How would you use this for a emulator their is only like 3 buttons on it
I was looking to join the Infuse 4g team here and wanted to know the following:
- Can you use ANY bluetooth controllers with gaming emulators? Also is there a single one that works without being rooted?
I know that Samsung usually messes up the ability to connect bluetooth controllers. I remember with my HTC Nexus One it worked beautifully with a wiimote even though I never rooted
I figured if I can use a bluetooth game controller with the gaming emulators and HDMI it to my television that I would have to purchase it...
Thanks for any knowledge you can give me I appreciate it
Yes, bluez ime will let you use zeemote, icontrolpad, and msi bgp100. No root required. Get bluez ime on the market.

Oh... My... God...
You sir, are AMAZING!
Thank you so much I really appreciate you taking the time to answer my question jjfbman. I was starting to lose hope since no one answered my question but you saved the day. I'd really like to go with the Infuse but I told myself the next phone I get has to do 3 things like the iPhone can:
1. Emulators w/ bluetooth game controller support
2. Bluetooth keyboard support (I believe some people say the infuse already does this?)
3. Netflix streaming
1 down... 2 to go and I'm sold
Netflix support is probably going to come with Gingerbread. And if the rumors about Roger's Infuse are true, then an unofficial Gingerbread release shouldn't be too far off.
i was wonderning if xbox 360 pad can be used with our sensation for gaming.
i'm saying this because ps3 pad can be used for gaming and all it takes a driver which enables it.
i'm not a dev but i would love it if someting like this can be done.
please dev can you give some insight about this thread.

What way does the 360 controller connect to the Xbox wirelessly? If it's Bluetooth, there *MIGHT* be a slight chance. But if it's not Bluetooth, no way to get it working.

it only says its use wireless at 1.4 ghz protocol to connect
othere than that i could not find anything
Ok this is what I do know about your question. I do think the X-Box 360 does use Bluetooth for the wireless controllers, but do not hold me to it as I have not researched it in depth. If it is Bluetooth then you should be able to connect it via Bluetooth if your device supports the service the controller uses to communicate. But this is where the problem lies at, I do not think the services or supported in Gingerbread. Now if the Sensation suppers USB host functionality then you probably can use a USB hub to connect your Sensation and the X-Box 360 controller to and use it that way.
Now in ICS I do know that game pads are supported. You can read the article on Engadget to read more about that.

Hi,
Unfortunately for you the 360 wireless controller works via radio rather than bluetooth (unlike the PS3 and the Wii)

one of many reasons why I can not wait for ICS!!!
p.s. I do not believe Xbox controllers run on Blutooth... PS3 controller yes.

Thanks for correcting me, as I said I had not ever really looked into it. I knew the PS3 controller worked via Bluetooth, so it was a incorrect assumtion on my part.
Also thanks to someone I consider a friend malybru.
Even so if you dont have a stock build of android like CM7, or MIUI, Bluetooth wont work with the ps3 or wii controllers... HTC needs to fix that in their next update. i love sense and i love gaming it sucks i cant have both
360 = rf
ps3 = bt
Yeah, you will never get a 360 controller working without a hardware mod of some sort.
Wii is BT as well.
i just want to know how does cm7 or miui allow the users to connect to ps3 pad
if they use different bluetooth app or driver files than i think it will be good for us to just move them in our phone and we are good to go.
if any 1 can tell me the reason these two rom can connect to ps3 pad. and what is it that allows them
U need a radio reciever in your phone at 2.4ghz to use xbox controller. Our phones dont. So no go. End of story
I know there are usb adapters for the xbox 360 controller , would it be possible to use a usb to micro usb cable and use USB OTG to get it to communicate, then creat some sort of driver to get it to work? Sorry if its impossible, just throwing science at the wall here to see what sticks.
LOL we work around science.

Sorry for digging out this topic but it might be usefull for some ppl. With new usb otg function i managed to control this wireless 360 pad to sensation. Here's my vid showing that Sensation and xbox 360 wireless pad
can you please supply the rom and kernel.
i tried several but no success.
Present ROM: cm_pyramid_userdebug 4.0.4 IMM76L eng.jenkins.20120810.032102 test-keys (CyanogenMod version 9.0.0 - pyramid)
Kernel Version: 3.0.40-TAMCORE-00689-gfe1a294
Android Version: 4.0.4
Still not working. Please provide your Rom and kernel version. Also the USB BT app please.
Thanks in advance
I tried everything but its not working. ROM and kernel that I'm using is posted in the previous post. Please help.
the USB bt joystick app is still not recognizing the wireless receiver.
Thanks in advance.
Probably one of the most frustrating things I'm dealing with is I just want to use a f-ing controller on this phone, like the playstation sixaxis!
When I bought the phone, I asked (mistake i know) the sales rep and the guy told me it was possible on the Charge, but not the Thunderbolt or Bionic, so it was a big selling point for me. Turns out, he was full of BS!
I've searched around and doesnt look to be possible. I'd LOVE to have a controller setup for this to play some of my favorite old school games. If you can get it to work, message me and I'll pay you to make it work!
Tell these guys you'll give them money, maybe they'll work for you:

Unfortunately because our phones have wacky bluetooth stacks, this may never work.
You can pair a PS3 controller with the Charge, I did it. Didn't spend a great deal of time looking for a game that it would work well with, but it did connect and communicate with my Charge. Search for sixaxis controller in the market.

Just tried the compatibility checker again and it seems to work but I don't have a usb cord to test with. App never used to work at all...
EDIT: Oh hell yes it works. Playing me some FFVII with it.
Now I just need to get a setup for micro hdmi -> dvi or vga and I'll have a pretty nice gaming/movie setup.
I honestly play most of my games on my phone now because my ps3 is broke and my laptop sucks. But it gives me a chance to play some older games how they were meant to be played with great functionality and performance....and this isn't even a dedicated gaming device

I've just picked up a fully functional Sensation 4G with a bad serial number (IMEI, MEID, ESN....whatever)
I'm looking for ideas on what to do with it. I'll put games on it and let the kids play it from time to time. I plan to learn how to root and flash custom roms with it, but thought I would ask you guys for some other ideas on what you would do with it???
Are you sure it isn't stolen?
It was purchased with a lot of cell phone stuff at a local auction. I called T-Mobile and had them run the MEID number and they told me that it can't be activated with their service anymore. Since I don't know the phones history I won't sell it, but since it seems functional I'll keep it and play around with it.
