Make phone a Bluetooth Receiver/Dongle?

Hey guys, I have a PS3, and I want to make its controller to work with my PC, thing is, it involves having an Bluetooth USB Dongle, which I don't. An example:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Thing is my Xperia x10 has bluetooth, so why can't I make it receive the controller's signal and transmit it through USB? There must be a way to make it like a Bluetooth receiver. Do you guys know how?

wow, that is a custom software job for sure, one that is almost surely not going to work simply because the MotionJoy drivers are finnicky when it comes to bluetooth controllers.
Let me tell you from experience, you want to purchase a cheap USB dongle, one that is known to work with the MotionJoy ps3 drivers if you want any chance of getting your ps3 controller to work wirelessly with your PC. I got one for like $5-10 bucks. Save yourself the trouble and do the same.

=(
It would be soo interesting lol. But actually on the phone's part it's not that complicated, it just needs a software to make it a bluetooth receiver!

you have to install third party bluetooth apk in order to make it a receiver, you can find in at the market...cheers

I've searched for it, but without success. Which apk is it?

So as to not clutter the board with duplicate requests: I was wondering if this can be done on Windows Mobile as well? Would anyone know some apps/hacks that might enable this?

ds3 controller to non-bluetooth pc
Rooted android device > sixaxis controller app > then the droidmote app and Corresponding pc receiver

Trying to do the same but with just a regular generic phone gamepad. Any update to solutions involving this?

Xperia Play launcher and apps2sd weird problem?

Ok, so I used adb and moved all my apps to my sd using setinstalllocation, I uninstalled system apps and games, such as fifa and star battalion and reinstalled them and moved them to the sd. This all worked fine and the games run, however, they do not show up in my xperia play launcher. The other games do, but the system ones I moved, sims, fifa and star battalion, no longer show up in the launcher. Any ideas? Kinda ruins the whole point of the launcher! :-(
Thanks guys,
Niall

OTG cable and NTFS read/write supported?

I was blessed to receive a few usb flash drives lately, and a OTG cable is on its way (although from Hong Kong it might take a while). I was wondering if anyone has had success with otg cables + flash drive/external hd with the Blaze. If not, can something like this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1724078 be added to the kernel? I would love to be able to use this new flash drive with my Blaze as now I always have the flash drive with me

Sorry for the long wait, I got the cable finally and have the flash drive mounted and working. I did end up using a mounting app from the app store though for the NTFS support. Everything is working fine, I even tested fat32 and it was working as well.

Got a PS3 controller? Try to get that to work with the OTG...I'm wondering if our phone supports it over OTG, I know it does via bluetooth if your phone is rooted, but unfortunately it has to use the secondary connection method, which means you can't also listen to music over a bluetooth headset with the controller going like you can with phones that use the primary connection method in the sixaxis app.

I do not have a PS3 controller with me atm, but I will Sunday most likely. What app are you using it with? I'll try and connect and see.

I'm not sure how using a ps3 controller to connect works with otg. It's likely an app, but maybe not. I've only done it with bluetooth, which is why I posted!
Oh well, I ordered a wired (uses usb otg) gameklip the other day. The site said it works.

[Q]My Propose Gaming Console System

Hi guys I need help, ideas and opinion on this. I want to have my own personal console system refer to the diagrams below.

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The first setup is that I have a rooted P3100 then paired it with Sixaxis, then connect P3100 to my TV of whatever method using HDMI or AV then run an emulator into my tab, eg. ePSXe for android, and play the game.
The second setup is just like the first but there is no TV. I want this setup if ever I'm away from home and I want to play games wherever and whenever I want.
Now the question is, what cable or any method to connect P3100 to my TV (AV or HDMI). I'm aware that there is no HDMI support on this tab but I found some speculation that it can be possible thru AV please refer to this images.

And lastly do this setup is doable? Thanks in advance.

To my knowledge the tab 2 7" cannot do video out period

I'm also very sad to learn that there is no HDMI out from the P3110 (which is the model I just bought off of amazon), as well as the P3100.
If you have interest in what you've described, you could look into the Ouya and the upcoming Dell Ophelia project. Neither are obviously free, but they will do what you want generally.
Good luck!

Headphones that I use on my notebook have TRRS cable and mic works fine on notebook but not on my phone. If you can try it before buying its ok but buy something for 90$ and than see if it work or not is not smart move.

Just buy it, and return if it doesn't work

Most of headphones use different pins. And most of companies use Apple ""standard"" that is not compatible with other devices.
For example:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

its only example with generic/nokia/apple connectors but you see why they may not work.

maybe you could ""expand" your amazing and valuable comment?
Because for your information loots of headphones made eg for iPhone have problem with using additional buttons(next/prev etc) or even mic(but that really rare).
And just because you have ONE model from hundreds available headphones in world it doesn't mean that its always work perfect.

Duuude, I have Kraken Pro Neon and Adaro Stereo. Both of them work totally awesome. And the mic works on KK and LP(I have tested on these) The Kraken is more for gaming, but the Adaro is for music. :good:
