Bluetooth Controllers for Games.. - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

In need of help in finding a gaming controller for the ET4G. I know I can't use my wiimote(bummer), but i need some sort of Bluetooth that works nicely for games. What do you guys recommend?

Does the PS3 controller work or is that only with an ASOP kernel?

It does with six axis in the market I believe

Have you tried this? Where did you read or see this actually working? I have done extensive research on this and it still needs an AOSP kernel from my findings. If you know of a way that this will work otherwise can you please post some details.

The Sixaxis app works great with my PS3 controller. No more games stopping on me and my controller is lightning quick with its responsiveness.. Ive tried this on nesoid sega and n64 emulator
Btw, I've used this on starburst, midnight, and my current Rom: Calkins 1.0

Not any more. It appears to be fixed with his update released today!

My PhoneJoy Controller works awesome on the epic 4g Touch it needs BluezIME to run.

Here's my review of the PhoneJoy Bluetooth controller if you're interested:

[Q] does anyone know

Can I use an snes usb controller with a micro adapter to play emulator games? Thanx.
If you have one, try it; though idk if it'd be supported.
Dont have one asking before I purchase
Ah, well I personally don't know. Some emulators support extended wired controllers, so I believe it'd work.

I'm not sure, but doubt it would work, as the evo doesn't support USB hosting. Heck, you can't even play music through the USB port. What you can do, is use an AOSP rom, and use a wiimote.

It only works on AOSP roms, i.e. CM7, evervolf, salvage, ect. It won't work on sense roms.

[Q] Sixaxis Controller

Does the epic 4g touch support the ps3 app?
If not is there anyway that can be obtained to getting working.
No. The bluetooth stack on our phones does not support the app, as our bluetooth stack is overrided by samsungs bluetooth settings.

i heard that the PhoneJoy works however the analog isnt really analog..
I'd email the dev about an ETA 4 an E4GT-compatible version, &'ll post what RE: I get. However,..

...what didja mean by this?
Also, is it possible that another bluetooth driver b "push"d 2 the device?
Yea I heard the phonejoy works, however it costs way to much and it ship from china.
Is there anyway a custom rom can change the bluetooth stack for this?

HTC also uses a custom bluetooth stack that is incompatible with this app. On my evo I had to install cm7 for some good gaming control fun.
[Update] SixaxisCompatibilityChecker
'K, so the dev'd gotten back 2 me, &'d posted a "SixaxisCompatibilityChecker" here. &, do provide the dev w/ feedback, as per the post's instructions.
OK sounds good I'm going to Chechen it out and get back with u.
Is there any news on miui Tom as of late?

SixAxis Controller App works on my Rooted Epic Touch, but the Touch Profiles have not been fixed yet.
Other than N64oid, the gameplay is great without the touch profile as this is only a necessity for the analog stick.

Emulators

Can someone help me out with emulators and how to get the games to play.

The only one I use that works good is FPSE and you have to hunt down sites that have the game ROMs to load. If you google it there are tons of sites and videos to help you out.
If you want to try PSXdroid here is a help page but I found it hard to get going. But this list sites with ROMs:
http://psx4droid.webs.com/psx4droidsetuphelp.htm
I haven't tried all the emulators, but I have gotten reliable use out of GBCoid and SNESoid. The makers have a N64 emulator, namely N64oid, but I can't enjoy the controls with 3D games as much as I want, plus alot of bugs with games spread out. These emulators can be found in SlideMe, just search for the emulators. Old emulators are free, but the N64 emulator will cost you.
As for a place to find ROMs, there are alot, but I personally use coolrom.com.

Kenny I love you so much right now. Despite I'm sure FPSE being common knowledge I've only now experienced how fantastic it is. PSX4droid be damned.
I was looking into all that and I'm having trouble trying to use a game once I downloaded it. I don't know I think I'm doing something wrong. For instance I downloaded the free playstation emulator I think it was psxdroid player lite and I downloaded the bios file needed and then I downloaded mortal combat game but it was a rar file. That's about as far as I got.

Ok just read the psx4 droid instructions. I think I resolved my own problem with why its not working. I will try using my pc at when I get home. Thanks guys!

I'm always playing games on SNESoid and NESoid. I use the Game Gripper. It's totally worth it.

Agreed.
PSX: If any of you were into the Digimon scene when you were a child give Digimon Digital Card Battle a look see. Perfect for the epic and is one of the most practical card games ever devised. Why it never caught on is beyond me.
Digimon Rumble Arena was great too. If you like Super Smash Bros-style game play.
Same with Gundam Battle Assault 2 if you were into Gundam and like fighting games.
The main factor which caused me to get my moment= Gameboid XD and for the record n64oid is amazing, the joystick control is top notch though compatibility is a thing that could use work, I'm halfway through ocarina of time n at the end of the first dungeon in Majora's Mask

Emulators are fun
It's fun to enjoy a game every now and then on your Epic, but man it sure does kill the battery, it's more reasonable to play on a Custom Firmware PSP. If you do have one, I recommend the N64 Emulator I gave birth to on there. Yup, that's me
DaedalusX64

No, I didn't make the N64 Emulator for Android Devices, before it was out, my plan was to work on it and make money off of a licence key of it with limited functionality in the "lite" version. Though another dev beat me to it, and was more knowledgable than I, I knew what was needed, but he was one step ahead of me on resources, the port on of N64 on Android is a Mupenport, whilist mine was going to be from scratch, with scrapes of mupen for linux such as the armv7 interpreter. Anyway. No I sparked life on the N64 Emulator for the Playstation Portable, I began work, and a team of dedicated people came to me and took chunks of outdated original code and got it working better than ever. I was but a spark with minor contributions, had I never sparked it though, Nintendo64 on PSP would of never become what it is today.
And Marcusant, there's more than one route, with the easiest being a hacked battery, I originally hacked mine my sophomore year of highschool a looooong time ago with a save-exploit on the unpatched UMD of GTA for PSP. There are other save exploits, but it does get slightly tougher the newer your firmware. It's come to the point to where you can use what they call "HEN" Homebrew Enabler which runs on official firmware. You should def give Daedalusx64 a try.

It is way easier to put cfw on a psp now. There is no need for a pandora battery or game save hacks. I know sony just came out with an update for the psp firmware on Tuesday, but any build before that takes a matter of minutes to hack. I just set up my slim 3000 a few weeks ago. It gave me a reason to pick it back up after sitting around for so long. And yeah, the psp is WAY more practical to get my retro gaming fix. Wii is pretty easy to crack these days too.
Edit: check out this site for info http://pspslimhacks.com/
It works on all models, including the fat ones, but do your reading to see what method works for yours.

I used to use FPSEce on Windows Mobile on a Touch Pro and got 45-50 fps. The emulator is very well coded and it was ported over by the original developer, which helps. Once my new phone arrives in a couple days I'm going to have to give it a try. It's just too bad that I'll have to buy it again (I paid for the development releases of it on WinMo).

[Q] Best Emulators? (GBA,SNES,etc)

I never really bothered trying out any of the emulators on my android phone because it uses so much battery life and the screen on my phone is so small, but I was thinking it might work really well on the KF.
My KF is currently running Hellfire's CM7.
So, what are some good emulators? I am specifically interested in gba and snes, but I'm open to other suggestions.
no emulator will work best bcoz kindle only supports two point touch

Take for example Mario 1 for the NES.
You can't sprint + jump at the same time, because it requires more than two touch points (right/left + sprint + jump).
It depends on the game, but for most, it's definitely bad.
How is FPse working? Has anyone tried?
n64oid and PSX4Droid
yupp these are the best

[Q] Dreamcast Emulator?!?!

Hello my fellow community. I know im getting on the train rather late but i just started downloading "roms" for these emulators. I have a few emulators on my phone already but can not seem to find a working Dreamcast emulator. Is there one? Is it a work in progress? Thanks for your time and if i posted this in the wrong section..please forgive me...happy flashing out there!!!
If you find one let me know, I loved the dreamcast
I found one, but it's in alpha state, only a few games work-http://www.xperiagamer.com/Blog3/nulldce-dreamcast-emulator-leaked.html

No I haven't, I play emulators on Windows w/xbox controllers. To me, easier to play than on phone w/on screen controls.
