[REQ] HD2 as PS3 media control

Hi guys!
As a lot of other people, I use my PS3 more as a media center / Blu-Ray player, then I'm actually playing on it. Every time I sit down to watch a movie from my media server or a BD-disk, I'm annoyed of how bad the PS3-remote looks. Especially when my beautiful HD2 is always laying next to it.
So:
I was hoping that some of you geniuses here might have the same impression as me, and see the value in a "HD2 PS3 media control"-app, which uses Bluetooth.
I would think that it only needs directional buttons for maneuvering in menus, a OK-button, the "Playstation"-button and the 4 actionbuttons; X, O, [] and /\.
With so many PS3-owners in the world, I'd guess that this application would be quite "sellable" for the developer as well
Cheers, Eirik.

Would like it =D!

HD2 as PS3 media control
Hey
Go to mobilesrc.com and try Mobile Remote. Works pretty well on my Touch Pro 2. Didn't get my HD2 in the mail yet. Might not be exactly what your looking for but it works with the PS3.

hmm.. i'm watching this thread.. this could prove to be interesting..

Hi
Mobile remote is ugly .... and send me an error :10038 (Failed to load driver)
Another idea ?
Thx

I asked the dev already, Mobile Remote does not work with HD2 bluetooth stack.

I made a little "mock-up" of how this might look, and would enable us to control most of the PS3's functions with the HD2's brilliant touch screen.
Unfortunately I was neither allowed to post the picture, the link or even put the link to the picture in a code-box :-/

Anybody? ... anything?

anyone tried gremote?

Other Android device as 'motion controller'?

Hello everyone, long time lurker at XDA but this is my first post in the forums.
I recently stumbled across android stick PCs and immediately knew I needed one. My main goal is to replace my WD live hub with one of these and use it for media streaming from windows shares over wifi. But then I stumbled on yet another Android stick called the GV-21 on ebay and then in a review I found out there was an app that let you use your android phone / tablet as a remote INCLUDING the ACCs / gyros for motion controlled games. I started wondering if the other devices I am considering (iMito MX1 and MK808) could use this app.
As near as I can tell the GV-21 uses an app called biggifi, the client apk can be downloaded from the manufactures site; not sure if its the same client that is in the play store or a modded one. I could not find the host apk anywhere online and it sounds like it is either built into the ROM or kernel anyway.
The GV-21 uses a Nufront NS115 CPU where as the other devices I'm using run RK3066 CPUs. Not sure if that would affect the use of this motion control app or not. The app I'm talking about along with the firmware for the stick is located at kimdecent.com/application/107.html
Questions:
Has anyone purchased one of these GV-21's or T21s (appear to be the same)
Will the GV-21 motion control app work on other android sticks?
Anyone used biggifi? Is it worth worrying about?
Thanks for any help and sorry for the long first post; wanted to give as much info as possible. If anyone has any suggestions regarding which stick to go with, Im open to advice on that as well.

There's a similar app called droidmote that works on these sticks, including the MX 1/2. Geekbuying have also made their own which they send you for free if you buy from them. The server component is built into their firmware. It works well, although gyroscope doesn't work for me, as my phone doesn't have one!

I've heard about the geekbuying one but couldn't find if it supported motion control or not.
Also looked at droidmote and was concerned about a couple comments of it using a lot of LAN bandwidth as well as some people saying it didn't work on a couple of various devices. Might have to install it on my tab and phone to test it out.
Right now I'm leaning towards the imito device I think. Seems like it has more support and common hardware then the gv-21 and the mk808 is lacking BT. Its a tough choice tho.

See the 3rd icon from the left above control and exit... "G sensor"

From the instructions...

The above pictures are also the freely available mk802III remote app you can get from the play store. I've got it installed and it works well but have just tried installed a g sensor app and couldn't get it to work. That said I only tried 1 app with the mk802III app.

[app] play any pc game/emulator at time, even over 4g

Hey Everyone,
So as I was browsing the forum the today I herd a reference to an app as part of a solution to play game cube games on my note 3.
I have to share my findings because this app is awesome, and if your a gamer you should have this app.
It's called "Kainy" - weird name I know but awesome and powerful app.
Play Store Description -
Kainy is a remote desktop oriented for Gaming and Performance.
Stream your games from your PC into your Phone/Tablet.
Play your PC Games Everywhere (Wifi/3G/4G).
- HD/native resolution.
- About 100 Preset Templates for Controls and UI.
- Up to 60 fps.
- Customize your Interfaces (Buttons and Controls).
- Apply your Custom Pages (Interfaces) for each of your Games/Applications.
- Use Accelerometer to control your Games.
- Support Fullscreen, Sounds, Bluetooth Keyboard...
- Authentication/Data encryption in 128 bits.
- Use Kainy as Game Controller.
- Optimized for Neon, Tegra2 and Tegra3.
- Multi-Devices connections (Up to 5).
It's pretty cool, and only $3. Down the Android app, down the PC app, the PC app will give you all the numbers to put into the android app with minimal setup required. You'll be remote controlling your desktop in seconds.
Also let's you build custom controller layouts (see screenshots below), and let's you turn off screen mirroring for a controller only mode.
Hope you guys like this!
Here are the links

Hey!
Great emulator but im missing tun.ko kernel for this! Is there any chance to using somehow openvpn on this???
Thanks!

tried yesterday windroy, it is amazingly fast but it is ics based some i'm now giving a try to windroye wich uses virtualization.
a kitkat based windroy would be amazing!

Some apps freeze and have to be restarted. Could it be a memory issue, or just general incompability?

Arm translation
I am having an issue where I am trying to install arm translation and I just cant figure out how to install the zip file. In genymotion its just drag and drop.

Works wonderfully here. I noticed though better not click on it when it is booting up. Also version 2.8.4 came out, but I can't download it (link not working). Anyone got solution?

thanks, got it. for anyone else looking, make sure you go directly to the site to search like lumanist advises. if you haven't heard already, google is hiding search results for kat and showing malware and fake sites instead: on one fake site, I was offered access to the download for $5 lol.

I've had bad luck with Windroye, The 2 games I play most have issues.
Simpsons Tapped Out, Runs great, no glitches, but it crashes frequently (Unfortunately, Tapped out has stopped).
Plants vs Zombies 2, Runs great but somehow my profile & progress get randomly erased, I'm able to get it restored but only after emailing Popcap support and having them restore it, Ive been playing the game in other emulators for 2 years and never had this happen, it happened twice in Windroye within 2 days.
I'm back to using Droid4X which has been trouble free with both games for several months now.

Marshmallow update broke game

For YEARS my wife and I have used the solitaire game from Ken Magic as it is THE most basic solitaire game out there. Hell, there has not been an update since 2010. Anyway, her Sprint S6 just got the Marshmallow update and it broke the game.
As you can see it is not full screen. What you cannot see is that the touch sensing is acting as if it IS full screen. We have tried searching alternative solitaire apps but they either have ads OR are crappy designs/layouts. Any ideas?
On a plus note the WiFi calling features seems to be staying connected better so far where it was not before.

Just buy another game.
No updates since 2.2 Froyo. Nice thing it did't break earlier. I don't think this has anything to do with MM, the game's really old itself.

Rofl.

Did you ever find a solution to this? I too have been seeking an alternative but there simply isn't one that can compare. So frustrated over this!

Unfortunately not. I know I can buy another app, but I really don't want to give someone money for something that is crappier.

Agreed. FYI, I've tried MANY different ones as an alternative and so far the closest one I could find is SolitaireCG which is based on the Ken Magic one. It's pretty good, and without the unnecessary graphic interference. I'm not sure if it is in the Play Store or not, if not, just search for "SolitaireCG". Cheers.

Just encountered same issue. Note that his app is open source. So you could go to the website listed on the app and update it yourself.

Thanks for the SolitaireCG tip, I found it here: http://solitairecg.sourceforge.net/ and on google play here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.sourceforge.solitaire_cg
