[Q] android connectivity with iPad? (use android as remote?)

I have the HTC G2 (Desire Z) on t-mobile. I just purchased a 32GB iPad 2 last week and am waiting for it to arrive soon. I want to use it's video out features a lot with my TV and I also have an apple bluetooth keyboard for typing and stuff.
My main question is are there any apps that allow an android phone to be used as a remote or mouse for the iPad??
Just any apps that allow android and iOS to play nice together would be great to know about. (and I'm not really asking about games, more so productivity apps or remote control type apps) Thanks!
p.s. Please no fanboy/troll comments please. I seriously am just trying to get the most out of what I have purchased. I love android and I love the iPad 2, and I would love some input on making them play nice together as I can't find anything online besides tablet comparisons

Just found this:

I'm thinking using it to browse your phone on the ipad? Could work? Havnt tried it as I haven't received my ipad yet. But I think its worth a look.

I would love to have media controls for my iPad on my Moto X, so I could control my Youtube app. It's that possible?

Hey 181jenkins, did you ever get anywhere with the wikipad controller? I had the same idea to modify it for my nexus 7. I managed to get the controller from ebay and hooked it up to my nexus 7. It doesnt work though. Do you have any ideas (rooting) as to how to get it to work with the nexus 7?
thanks

[Q] Android Tv Stick Sky Go (UK) Compatibility?

Hello,
apologies for posting right after joining.
I've been reading the forum's and was wondering on some input.
I'm interested in a few android TV sticks, and i am wondering if any one has one that successfully works with sky go out of the box?
if so could they recommend the model?, so i would buy this on peoples findings.
a couple of models i have seen are the cx919 and the mk808, but from reading here it looks like they are not compatible with sky go.
any input would be greatly appreciated.
kind regards
Apologies im not sure were this direct question would go in which sub forum?

Most android sticks come 'ROOTED' out of the box which apps such as Sky go don't like. So unless you can 'unRoot' your device in a way (apparently there are multiple ways to unroot) that would be compatible w/ Sky go you have very limited options.
Cheers, OP

any recommendations will depend on how much you want to spend and the form factor u need...I have a MK802III (dual-core, 1 GB Ram, Mali400 GPU)...pretty good for normal usage....
If you can spend upto $120 you can get a quad core, 2 GB stick such as MK802IV which should be almost twice as fast the one I have...
Also the android TV devices comes in two form factors - a TV stick with HDMI male port which goes straight into your TV and the other is a box form where you have a small box with cables flying out to your TV.
I personally prefer the TV sticks which are more compact and save on already cluttered TV backsides..
Cheers,

I'm also keen to know which of these work best for Sky Go (and how best to unroot / mask root).

Hello, friends, I was wondering if there is a way to connect the Xperia Z4 Tablet to DS3 joystick using Bluetooth without root. I know that DS3 is not officially supported but maybe you have the solution.
Thank you [emoji2]

If you don't wish to root, I suggest you get something like this instead Telescopic Wireless Bluetooth Game Controller

Hi. I bought usb gamepad sqonyy sqy-862 (dualshock 2 copy), but my tablet z4 dont work with it. I have rooted tablet. Can someone help me?

Maybe with root you can install the ds3 apks the z2 series supports ds3 maybe it can be ported over. I recon it would have been by now but the support for this tablet is terrible not alot of people are developing for it, im tempted to go back to z2 tab because I can have root on locked bl.

Some info would help. You're connecting using a USB-OTG cable? What do you see in Android?

Greetings and welcome to assist. Installing the shield OS on the pixel tablet will probably brick your device. If they have the same processor then it should be possible to port it but this still requires a lot of work and modifications

Then why isn't anyone working on it? It would be like having a mobile version of the shield TV.

People do this for a hobby and choose to share things on xda. Xda isn't a place to come and request things, less popular devices tend to attract less developer support plus there may be issues like locked bootloaders or no custom recovery.
If you want to try yourself there are some excellent guides in xda university
