Generic BT gamepad: only D-pad works - General Questions and Answers

I have a BT gamepad which I'm trying to use for playing games on emulators on my Galaxy S III. Only the D-pad works in them, and the weird thing is that I can map the buttons in every emulator (e.g. John NES lets me configure all of the buttons with no problems in the setup menu), but in the game only the D-pad works. And the notes application detects every button so it works flawlessly hardware-wise, but emulators don't detect the action buttons inside the game. What might be wrong, any solutions?
If you want to see what kind of device it is, google playtimes gamepad. I'm not allowed to post links here because I'm a n00b.

games that use keyboard?

Search didn't come up with this as a specific topic...
many of our HTC devices have a keyboard.. I'm wondering which games allow use of the keyboard at all (even if its just using arrows vs D-pad), and/or if any games truly take advantage of having a keyboard (ie. can you remap keys in mega-MAME the way you can in desktop versions?)
Edit: presumably this means running in landscape mode (at least for most devices with full kbds)
Thanks,
Mike
recall some fps games maybe it was doom or doom2 which had an onboard keyboard under the fps window
at least some of the emulators too
c64 i recall
I think all games that let you config the keys used to play. Like i use call of duty on my wizard and it works great but i would recommend that you open the keyboard first and then start the game because some games have problems when you open it during play.

Looking for a good NES emulator that is compatible w/ Touch Cruise

I've tried Pocket Nester, Pocket Nester Plus and Pocket NES, with several different ROMS. For the most of them, the opening screen seems to run, but neither the touch screen nor the d-pad controls seem to respond at all with the touch cruise.
Any suggestions would be welcome.
B.U.M.P...
((BUMP X2))
Try Morphgear.
I use SmarthGear and it's OK, but I don't know how to map the buttons in order to contro
it comfortably.
try pocketnester newest
then when u use your touch screen the game gonna run slow
i found a fix
just turn of your sound in pocket nester and it wil run perfect
* i got htc cruise with poketnester
FinalBurn
FinalBurn works great on Polaris!
I think it's one of the best ppc emulators ever.
You can play MetalSlug perfectly!
Give it a try!
I also use PocketGBA to emulate the GameBoyAdvance games, works good on Polaris but only a few roms (Sonic works very well).
Give it a try also!
Have fun!

I'm talking about "FinalBurn WinCE".
It's very complete. You can assing any hardware key (even assing touch keys on the screen) and save the game.
The resolution is great!
You can find it easely if you google it:

Cool gonna try it.
Thank you for everyone's suggestions. I actually figured out what I did wrong for Pocket NESter at least. In my case, it looks like neither the "Send" nor "End" hardware buttons will respond if you try to map a controller button to either.
I tried mapping the "start" NES controller button to the "Send" HW key, which effectively prevented me for starting any game. Only the directional pad, "GPS", "IE", "Enter"(Center Button), "Voice Command" and "Camera" buttons worked when mapped.
Pocket Nester works fine with the D-Pad and HW buttons, but using the touch screen keypad, especially the directional one seemed to slow down the game significantly. I'll try the other suggestions to see how they wrok as well.
Thanks again.
Any idea if it is possible to run Pocket NESter full screen in landscape mode ?

morphgear

To the people who have been able to get morphgear working on the fuze:How did you set the keyboard up as the controls. When i try to do it they all end up the saying the same number,229. so all the buttons i program act as the start button. This is for snes games.

emulators which work with TG-01

hi all,
i have spent hours scouring the forums ranging from the classy htc diamond ( which i loved btw) to the experia x1 (which is also cool) trying to find a good emulator for nes/snes games which support touchscreen, wvga, and the tg01's lack of hard buttons.
if anyone has any ideas or links or anything so we can all get a great emu working for the 1ghz hand sized tv screen then brilliant.
****************************************
dont think im being a console-ist by only asking for nes/snes but the idea of playing ps1 games on this beast with no hard buttons doesnt exactly thrill me to bits, but if you want to share your findings with everyone then feel free
****************************************
Play Station Emulator good? ^_^
There you go:
http://www.fpsece.net/
Just Google:
PSX /PS1 ISOs to get the games =)

morphgear is best snes emu but like you say with no buttons or multitouch emus are only really good for rpgs which is fine for me, fpsece is best emu out.
i would have thought we would have fullspeed/sound snes considering you can for psx but you cant.
neway if you get morphgear for hd2 and dreeds mulitouchpad for the best experience for snes, and you have to use the virtual mouse thing (slide finger up over strip bit on tg01) to be able to click on the settings
I guess what we really need is a touchscreen hook that will capture slide events and fire the appropriate cursor keys whilst in specific apps. Is there anything like that already?
wel i had a think about it and we need to make a touch screen keyboard with the typical up, down,left,rihtt and a,b,c buttons and map them to keys such as the wasd configuration. we could invoke the keyboad to pop up with a reg key or something to piggyback on the emu to rocess.
im not a programmer so i have no idea how to make this happen but will help with graphics if anone wants to try.

unless i am misunderstanding what you mean then this is already programed into fpsece and morphgear (using dreeds pad).
eg press circle button and slide finger up = up and circle.
i cant see and better improvements to fake multitouch happening, sorry if ive misunderstood u tho
if this pic come sup then brilliant, this is what i would like personally.
a proper nes pad layout linked to the virtual keypad so i can play pokemon games and such ( please dont mug off pokemon games, for a turn based rpg its pretty good)
there must be a way to link this to an emu
i am willing to help anyone with anything they need to make this work
also....
on a side note, any way to speed up the screen rotation, from what i understand, the os asks the g-sensor what state its in then adjusts accordingly. where as on other phones the g-sensor tells the os what its doing. can we speed up the refresh on this or is it a no go for now?
Just wondering if anyone has got mario rpg on the snes working via morphgear on there phone. For me i can either crash after the opening screens, where u press start to start game, or after a little bit into the game. When it does work it takes about 5 sec's to load each battle, frustrating.
Can i play games FPSCE with this device?

@above not sure but you can just use a dualshock 3

Emulators for Touch2/Mega

Has anybody tried running nes/snes/gba/psx emulators on their Touch2's? Is that even remotely possible?
Hi, midnyt17 . I have a psx emulator on my HTC Touch 2. It works very well. I tried to launch GTA2 on it and it worked. I watched the intro with no lag. Bu the thing is that Touch 2 doesn’t have a d-pad or numeric pad so you can’t control the game. But you can connect a Bluetooth pad to the HTC... well the emulator says so. But I didn’t test coz I have only playstation pads. But if someone tested let us know if it works .
I use Pocket GBA and FPSE. Pocket Boy Advance map go "back" button "menu" and "+ - volume" so that the games are playable in total. FPSE to say not very good but the map should be playable Diablo
