[Completed] Getting Controller to work with Samsung Homesync - XDA Assist

Not sure where I should ask this since the Samsung Homesync never really took off and the only thread I can locate is in regards to the ROOT process. I am unable to ROOT as I am on an unsupported firmware unfortunately.
I accepted it and have turned it into a media center using the android version of XBMC. Things are looking great with the exception of when I go to play games using RetroArch my controller is not recognized for input. It works both wirelessly and wired for everything except when I load a game then no input is recognized.
In the lower part of the screen I see Port 0: Gasia Co..Ltd I am using a Power A PS3 wireless controller. Where can I figure out how to make this work or solid options for a replacement that works with the Samsung Homesync.
Thanks all!

[Completed] [Q] Can't find my Phone at Home...

my phone is somewhere here at home but i just can't find it. i want to install an app that lets me ring it remotely but the wifi is turned off so i was wondering if there is any way to turn on the wifi using my google account or something. is that possible? it's an xperia z if that even matters.
Hi,
I doubt that will be possible. Even if you could get an app remotely installed, You'd likely need to open it and set it up on your device before you could use it.
I'd say asking in the general forums will get you more attention than the Xperia Z section, and this isn't really device specific, so asking here would be best...

[Completed] [Q] Bluetooth after Android 4.4.4 Update

I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 on AT&T and I just updated to Android 4.4.4
I have been having issues with the Bluettoth since the new update.
I can connect all my devices just fine, but i cant use any one of my devices for Media.
I have tried:
Car Bluetooth Stereo
Wireless Keyboard
Samsung Gear 2 watch
Selfie Stick
On all my devices I am able to connect and pair normally, but when i use each device it wont allow me to use each of its functions.
Example. On my car bluetooth stereo, I can answer my calls, but i cannot play music from spotify, i heart radio, regular music app, netflix, youtube, ect..
I noticed a "Media Audio" box under the bluetooth setting for my stereo that i should check to allow the audio, but whenever I attempt to press it, it will not allow me to check the box.
I am unable to check this box for the setting under my wireless keyboard, and for my selfie stick as well.
Can someone help me find a solution

[Completed] having problems rooting Android double din radio...need help!

Hey guys, I'm not new to rooting as I've done many devices, but I have to say the project I have now seems impossible. ...
I have and Android double din radio that I purchased of of Ebay, it says it is running android 4.4.4 jelly bean...It has so many restrictions, I can't access bluetooth settings/but will connect to any cellphone with no problems. ..and the USB access is very limited as the manufacturer seems to have hidden these features to make more profit on THERE OWN OBDII sacanners and tv box etc that you HAVE to purchase from them ONLY!, or those features WILL NOT work....
I love the fact that I have android in my car but this limited access is very annoying.
ANY help would be appropriated, thanx!

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
We cannot provide technical support nor can other members reply to your posts here on XDA Assist and it's difficult to direct you towards a specific thread since you give so few details about your device but I suggest that you ask your question with all relevant details in the dedicated "Android Auto" Forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/android-auto/, maybe in the "Android Head Units" subforum there at http://forum.xda-developers.com/android-auto/android-head-units where members familiar with your device might be able to advise you.
Good luck!
got it!
I did end up rooting it!...I used (Root Checker) and I am officially rooted...
But, I am still having a problem finding away to access the Bluetooth menu in settings/wireless & networks....
Any ideas?

Hello again.
On a traditional Android device, Bluetooth is typically an entry under "Network Connections" or a similarly named menu. As mentioned earlier we cannot provide technical support here on XDA Assist, but if you ask in the forums mentioned earlier, another member may be able to assist you.
Once again, good luck!
