PS3 controller for games? - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The ps3 controller is usable on tablets so I was wondering if we could use it on our Inc's? One of you geniuses can figure it out, i'm sure. Would be great for emulators and maybe even a video controller. Might sound stupid to some but I would like it.

Actually I've seen this that it is suppose to work on phones.

Skyraider was incompatible but miui worked, I was able to connect the controller to my phone and assign keys, didn't test actual functionality though.

Tried the compatibility checker that the dev provides, and gave an "error: missing protocol" or something similar; checked the FAQ on his blog, and basically means the phone is incompatible. Oh well; maybe it's something with Sense/sense kernels?

[ROM] Creating a new rom - Conical lockscreen

Hello i am new to the forum. I am creating a ROM, using Froyo as the platform and the droid incredible as the target phone. Generic compilation was succesful.
I am currently trying to change the lockscreeen. I have some found the locations of some of the lockcreen components. Currently i am trying to figure out how slidingtab.java is called. Are there any others that have some expereinces in changing the lockscreen-
You are in the correct area. SlidingTab is an object that is used in LockScreen.java.
Interesting.. Will be watching the thread closely

+1. I plan on doing this myself eventually (the custom ROM, not just changing the lock screen). Just hard to find the time.
thanks for the quick replies. I have some time right now. My school schedule is light. I will debug lockscreen.java more and get back with my findings. thanks ihtfp69

Sure, but first I need to learn how to turn it into an *.zip for flashing. I currently run my builds through the emulator. If someone can get me pointed the right direction I can work faster ;-)

This is a silly question, but what does a "conical" lock screen look like?
It was meant as the name of the ROM. After posting I realized how it read. I'm not sure. Hmm maybe with two cones point to point.

LOL. I thought I missed out on some hot new UI paradigm or something!
pm me if you need a tester, always up for beta testing a new rom.

As far as I know their is no lockscreen sdk. If their was one lockscreen replacement could be so much easier.

ROM kitchen worked. But since I'm using an AOSP version the touch controls do not work. I'm going to debug using logcat to figure out if the controls initialize

I get the same issues with nes and snes. The dev stopped working on them before 2.3.4 came out so my guess is compatibility issue. Im also running cm7.
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
I seem to remember it working at one point in time but I'm a flashaholic so it was probably on an earlier rom. Either way I need to figure this out lol.

Maybe by editing the build.prop you can achieve this.
I tried spoofing the Nexus S 4g, but unfortunately no luck on the video.
Edit: Actually it does not look like the Nexus S 4G is supported either..

Aosp video chat fix?

Is it possible that there isn't a fix for video chats on aosp roms for the EVO. I've tried different versions of decks roms and one from jared. Each have the same results. The furthest I've gotten is voice going through but without video. Is there a flashable zip or something to fix this. I want to use an aosp Rom but can't without this working. I tried Skype and g+ video chat. Both failed.by now there should be some kind of fix. On sense Roms they work but not aosp ones. I've searched Google and xda search but no luck. Someone please help.

Yeah. I loaded them in boot manager. Wiped all. Installed apps by titanium. Could it be kernel wise? I kept the kernel the Rom came with.

Well the kernel idea didn't work. I used taimat 4.1 with the same results. I guess I won't be using aosp roms as a daily until its figured out. Yeah the apps are but for some reason they don't function on the aosp builds. Thanks for your help but if you happen to come across anything please let me know.

Will do, and sorry they're not working for you.
I had a problem for video chatting not working. G+ and Skype didn't work which I needed. So after days of searching for an answer, I finally stumbled across this. It helped for G+ but not for Skype. I didn't confirm an actual chat but my image comes out and doesn't say camera error anymore.
The link has a adb command list but I did it via root explorer. My first try didn't work but on my second try I didn't fix permissions or reboot. Weird but worked for me.
One last advice is that trying to video call in Skype borked the ability to g+ video chat afterwards. A simple reboot fixed it. So here is the link I used:

CM7 & stock cdma touchpad idea

Hi guys I have been reading in the forum lately that stock cdma 2.3.3 is basically aosp build? my question is can we then use cm7 which i think is more or less aosp build and the cdma 2.3.3 build to make a cm7 with working touchpads? or is the problem cm7 kernal??

That's a good question I've been wondering that myself and here's a little something I found out while running a rom (2.3.3 Verizon with timescape) that from is from the UK firmware which has the .145 baseband which is also included into the cm7 builds I was looking at the build props of both roms and noticed the base and was the same, so my thoughts were rebasing a cm7 build on that 2.3.3 gingerbread .145 baseband would everything still work? Or would there be to many problems with cm7 sources and stock sources causing it not to load?

isn't the baseband independent from the rom and just the firmware for the modem?
i thought the framework.jar is the problem or what i thought lately that the synaptics touchpad drivers aren't in the cm7 kernel.

Well here's the thing, sorry if I lose anybody here lol.
The touch pads and game pads do work but they don't work (if that makes sense) some games the game pad will work I.e off road legends sonic 1 but like gta series they don't register, I found an app that checks if the touch pads register it shows two yellow squares when you touch the middle "analog sticks" so they work and register but not on every game like sonic for instance the direction pad we can control him the x button makes him jump as well as pressing up on the left touch pad so they are there but not constant if you guys follow what I'm saying

Has someone tried with semc prop values? As for Rockstar Games games (lol) you need these values
Code:
ro.semc.product.model=R800i
ro.semc.product.name=Xperia PLAY
ro.semc.product.device=R800
ro.product.model=R800i
If still they don't get activated, it should be a framework issue, rather than a build.prop one

Lol that line (mod.touchmpad.startfrom1=1) is a custom property that will be ignored by the system unless you implement farenheith's code into the framework (that isn't compatible with pre-Ics frameworks unfortunately).
The only chances we have are those values (and fixing the others of course)

Farenheith didn't something for gb coz gb framework works in a different way than ics and +, and I don't have the skills (lol I'm 15 whom was never taught nothing about c/c++) so for now, I can't do anything :/
We need to find how the inputs work on gb (I mean in which smali and methods) and then make something like farenheith did, I think

As I said before, farenheith's fix works only on 4.0+, because he changed some of the methods that (as I know) exist only on GB
