How well does the IR work? I've heard a couple of posts saying that it was poor/weak on the G2 and G3 and you had to be really close and straight on for it to work? Can anyone who used the IR remote on an HTC One compare it to the G3?

I do not have the phone yet. But I would search online some more. I am sure I saw some users complaining that air condition remote was not in the G3.
So far I've found the remote function works pretty well (my sofa is about 6.5 feet away from devices) you just have to make sure the mobile is pointing directly at the device. The learning function is a complete pain in the @ss. Took me best part of 4 hours to set it up for my living room.

Same here with a sprint model. I've tried on 2 different brand of TV sets n no dice, yet my gpad works flawlessly? Any suggestions, tia
Mines very poor I sit about 15ft away and it does work. Crap too be honest my HTC Samsung phones have no issue at that distance.
Just tried it out about 20 minutes ago myself and it worked great. I have a Samsung TV and a Denon AVR and it found both without issue. The app kind of sucks, since I can't change the input of my AVR, but the functionality of the IR was just fine for me. I sit about 10 feet away from my TV.
it doesn't work on my air-con (panasonic)
but my TV worked perfectly :cyclops:

I played around with it a bit more last night and the Universal Remote feature is wonderful. You can setup your remote control however you want, placing predefined icon buttons or you can custom label your buttons. You then have the phone learn the IR frequency from whatever remote in question. I had to program a couple buttons twice, since the ideal range was 4-5 inches from the phone for it to learn. I ended up programming buttons from my TV remote, HTPC remote, and AVR remote. It's like having a Logitech Harmony on my phone... not as nice, but still functions in an almost similar way. If I could program a single power button to power on my TV and AVR, that would be a huge WIN for me, but unfortunately this does not work that way.
I'm going to search around for a good alternative, though. I wish I could make the remote a bit larger for more buttons. I also haven't figured out why the Universal Remote cannot be on my notification bar or lock screen, whereas the TV or Receiver remote can.

Works on my air conditioner. It should technically work with any IR remote, since you point the original remote at the phone to get it to read. Just make sure you select universal remote when setting it up. You add your own buttons and follow the prompts to map each button to the proper function by pressing the buttons on the original remote.
Constantly having to press buttons twice to get them to work, even from 4 ft away (not I don't sit that close normally....)
TV - Panasonic Viera Plasma
AT&T Uverse box
Denon AVR receiver
Wish, like another poster said, you could do it all with one power-on button. I'll have to mess with it some more.
I have to get the phone 2-3 feet away from my LG TV for the IR blaster to work. Sounds like I'm not the only one with weak IR. No such problems with my old phones.

It's cool. I love to fly.
I saw this a while back but it was only for iOS back then. I'm glad to see them coming over to the dark side. I'm enough of a nerd as to go out and buy this. lol
Edit: Wait, I think they still may only support iPhones.
Edit again: There are apps in the Android market! Time to get on eBay! lol
im planning to get one of these toys
The British Car show Top Gear tested the iPhone version of that in the News Segment of the East America Special.......
http://www.ecrater.com/p/10813807/parrot-ardrone-quadricopter-controlled-by
I have 2 of these (see http://headloaf.co.uk for some stuff I've done with them).
There is already a development thread on ardrone-flyers.com with regards to Android control but I am sure that they will apreciate some input from this community too.
This is a great 'toy' and the community at ardrone-flyers.com are always looking to improve it even more. We've even managed to mount GPS to it and control it using 7ch TX rather than WiFi....loads of fun to be head with these!
It is designed for iOS use buy there are several scripts that can be run on the drone itself (as the drone runs off a linux base) so that it can be controlled via PC/Laptop, Mac, Android - these can all be found on ardrone-flyers.com along with some scripts for object tracking etc.
They are also some similar toys,which are working with bluetooth,even with older mobiles
That's freaking cool!!
Maybe after I pay some bills off and figure out how to pay for a wedding I will revisit this I love to fly RC planes and helicopers and I love playing with my phone so this is 2 awesome things in one!
Cool ... ... one day I'll get my hands on this techie stuff and control using an Android
that is Fking wicked just like the heli i build myself back when i was kid using foam and RC set.
but this is using the PHONE!!!!!!!! as the controller AWEOME!
i wonder how far is the range of those things

Range is 50 meters, but according to this:
http://www.ardrone-flyers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=807
You can stretch that out to 150-200 meters using some hardware and a little good old fashioned ADB.
it is cool cant wait to see some more of your future work
pretty sweet! can't wait to spy on my parents with this.
Even on ebay the price tag on this thing is high in would love to have one but I just don't see spending 300 on this plus parts if you want to mod it out
sent from a EVOlved device modded by the Borg.
Can someone specificy what this means
Play with other users via a Wi-Fi network
Another major feature is the use of several AR.Drone on a network.
Thanks to its own generated Wi-Fi network, players can create a game party where others players can join and play against each other.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Does this mean it creates a WiFi channel in which the phone connects to so it would work anywhere within the Generated WiFi range, e.g. my giant backyard?
EDIT:
* What type of connection is established between the AR.Drone and the iPhone?
The AR.Drone is connected to the iPhone by an ad hoc Wi-Fi link.
* Do I need a Wi-Fi router to operate my AR.Drone?
No, the AR.Drone creates its own Wi-Fi network. The iPhone(or device) can then connect to it just like with any Wi-Fi network.

Wow!
I also got one but it`s a pain in the axx to connect them with each other each time. Since Android does not support Ad-Hoc Wireless , we have to trick the AR Drone into Telnet thru your PC.
This means you have to carry a PC/Laptop with you to play with AR DRONE each time you want to turn on your Ar Drone
Kinda sucks ha ?
Read this LINK , this is how I get them to connect to each other .....
Anybody knows any better method to connect them ? I mean how to enable AD HOC on Android , I tried all the methods but none of them worked so far ... Is there an application or something ?
My phones are HTC Desire HD and HTC Incredible S

Well - this thread got me going a couple of days on getting a Drone
But have not found the time / probably won't either ... one thing I did read though is that it is possible to have the AR Drone connect to a WLAN (infrastructure - not adhoc).
It has some limitations concerning the IPs you use and probably security - but perhaps it is less a pain to carry around an extra router with your configured AR-WLAN
Google it - it was not hard to find
This is unrelated to Android but well worth posting.
For those of you in the RC hobby you've got to check out the Blade mCPx
A collective pitch heli with a 245mm rotor.. unreal
Definitely check out some YouTube vids of it, its just awesome. Amazing cp agility.. indoors!

Last I read it was due out in late July according to some third party accessory stores. Nothing official from Samsung though...

Anyone know if Apple's 30 pin connector works with the SGT? They look similar, and keep appearing in search results for one another. If so, the 30-pin to hdmi dongle (I'm n00b & cannot post links but it's on Amazon for $44.99) for the ipad2 should work, no? And if so, scoffing the price and the number of cords/connections required to get this going.
No, Apple adapters are not compatible. Yes, they are both 30-pin adapters, but those 30 pins are mapped out differently, making them proprietary.
CHECK THIS VID OUT..

ok, I got so excited I went and bought the dock. And it doesn't work, maybe there is a way to get it to, but it just goes to dock mode and never displays. I have tried multiple displays and no go. Anyone want to figure this out? I have a $10 donation to you, waiting.

Bought it from Samsung Korea ..
Just tested ... you need to hook up power to the unit (ie there's a piggyback 30pin that needs to be connected to POWER) before you can view it on the TV .. so it's daisy chain (Tab to adaptor, adaptor to USB power.. adaptor to HDMI

Very good point .. and I found out all the 7" tab stuff works on the 10.1 adaptor
mg: just saw the manufacture date for the HDMI :lol:
15 Jul 2011 :lol:
I didn't plug it in. I will try with the ac adapter when I get to work. I flashed the touchwiz rom so if it works I won't know if touchwiz helps.
ok. Works! Needs to be plugged in to the AC adapter but I don't know if you must have touchwiz. I am betting you must considering that without you get the dock constantly running when you press home. This does not do that.
Hehe good ! And i dont think you need touchwizz to make it work, did it fit the whole screen perfectly ?

It does not fit 1080 screens fully. Touchwiz keeps the home button displaying when on the television and fills what it can. Different than what the xoom does. But it does probably fit a full screen 720.

Hmm .. mine display fullscreen .. and I noticed on the youtube video when you play movies .. the tab is blank while the HDMI is running ..
mine displays on both .. ??
great job guys you really make work easier for everyone. Will hit thank you for all.
I flashed the bonsai rom to check and see if the experience was any different. It too shows the bar at the bottom. With the zoom I was annoyed the bar was not there. But when it is there it does not fit the screen fully. I hope that becomes a choice in the future updates. Also, seems flash staggers when using HDMI. Maybe just something that is holding off the real updates from Samsung.
Hi All.. i found this gamepad for iphone ..do we really have something like this for galaxy too????...please share your comments and pictures on this if you are really looking for one...

That one works on Android too. So does a lot of others, including Wii controllers, Xbox controllers, PS3 controllers, etc.
I use an Xbox360 controller on my Galaxy Tab, and a Phonejoy controller (which is made for Android) on my S II. Use it with a DIY S II holder I made for it:

yes i know this, i owned this one some months ago, and let me say: DON'T BUY IT
it's only cheap plastik. yes, there is an adapter for quite all phone models, but it's very unconfortable, buy a psp if you want to play seriously on the road.
if you are only a casual gamer, virtual touch controls are enough, and on the beautifull touch screen of gs2 it's better than crappy physical controls.
listen to me: for casual gaming use touch controls on your phone, for REAL GAMING there are pc-ps3-xbox-wii, in the middle psp-nds (for kids)
Anyone tested OnLive controler ???
It looks like great to use because the phone is attached to the joypad but i think it is quitte uggly.

I use the PC wireless adapter plugged into my Gaalxy Tab 7.0 Plus via USB. USB/BT Joystick Center for the setup, and through root and the joystick2touch setup it gives compatibility with pretty much any game that has touch buttons.
How do you do it mate ? Can you please explain this step by step ?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
This is sort of the thing that you shouldn't be doing if you can't read your way to how to do it on yourself, simply because there are so many different ways it can not work, but ok. You install USB/BT Joystick Center, and if you have root, the joy2touch addon. You make sure you've enabled USB/BT's USBjoyIME fake keyboard in input settings of your device, start the app, and plug in your x360 wireless adapter via USB. You give it permission to use the USB input, swithc to the USBjoyIME "keyboard", turn on the xbox controller, pair it the way you pair those controllers, select the controller in the app. Test that buttons show up, and that's it for non-root setup. You then program buttons normally in whatever app you use. If you have root, you can start the touch addon from within the main app, and when in-game, hold 4 fingers on the screen to enter touch edit mode. You then press a button and click on the screen where you want it to go. That programs it to send the device fake touchscreen input data when you press the button
Note that I do this on a Galaxy tab, not the S II. I just mentioned it in passing and actually use a phonejoy on my s ii
Thanks mate ..i am gonna try this once i am free.

Have you guys tried the sixaxis app with a ps3 controller? It lets you setup 'touch profiles' where you can map the buttons to anywhere on your screen. You can virtually play any game with it, but works the best with emulators.

That question suggests you're not really aware of how game controllers function on Android...which is perfectly understandable. I'm working on a guide to game controllers on Android that will be done tomorrow or so, it should help clear up a few things
I have the iControlPad (OP's post) and I can say that it works beautifully with my S2.
I had to drill a hole in the retainer clip in order to make it hold my phone+case (It will hold a caseless i9100 without issue otherwise), but other than that it is a wonderful piece of hardware. Makes playing the Kairosoft games a breeze!

Assuming you have an android phone as well you could try this app it works for me I use it with nesoid and n64oid and believe it should work with gta and sonic it turns your phone into a bluetooth controller for use with a tablet or another phone as the host. Heres the link to the free version which I am using I am thinking of getting the full version so I can have other controller layouts. Full version is a $1.10 aus.

Thanks for that. I will pop down to the shop tomorrow and get one. Do you use sixaxis to use the Ps3 controller?

I use a wireless ps3 contoller and the sixaxis app but you need to be rooted i believe.

This. You need the OTG adapter + MiniUSB cable to pair it though (but once paired you dont need the adapter, it'll remember the pairing) I dont do a lot of gaming but when using it, it's been quick and responsive. (it does require root - and remember to change the input method after its paired and change back when your done or the onscreen KB wont show up)

You don't have to change the input method. You just have to select "Enable Gamepad" under Preferences -> Gamepad Settings. The gamepad buttons will work as long as the checkbox for "Sixaxis Controller" under "Language and input" in "System Settings" is checked. Pressing the start button will act as the home button even if you have the Samsung Keyboard set as the main IME.

I didn't realise that, I've been selecting it each time I use my controller. I only use it to play modern combat upto now. Tried playing gta vice City but the button configuration isn't that good.
I have some headphone with 3 buttons from my Samsung S3 days. Volume Up/Down and another button that used for pausing, etc.. The buttons currently do nothing on 4.4.2. Anyway to get the buttons working?
Here is a picture of the headphones.

i own an HTC one and faced the same issue. Leave aside volume, the buttons in the stock headset supplied with the phone even did not change the track. This app was a boon for me.
try the trial version here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kober.headset&hl=en before you buy the paid one.

I can't get the buttons to do anything, even with the app. Found this via google.

Sucks, seems a hardware limitation.

Maybe you can try this xposed module "xposed addition" and see if it detects those key presses!!

Yes, and I just tried this Headset on my old Phone (Galaxy Gio) and it also did not recognize the button. Maybe Hardwarelimitation or proprietary Signal by the Nokia Headset?!

Yeah seems so......ur guess is as good as any....I don't have any multi button headsets to test but that app does detect the button clicks from normal one buttoned headphones...
Edit: test with some generic headphones with multiple buttons

I have a basic 1-button wired headset from my old galaxy s. Sound and mic work fine, button does nothing. Tried many apps, signal doesn't get caught when I press the button. The headset works fine on galaxy s (stock and CM) and on my wife's HTC desire (stock and CM). I thought a custom ROM would add support on my moto g, tried official CM11 to no avail.
I am lost here. If it is hardware limitation, then this is a seriously ridiculous downside. Well.... Ya I still like my phone tho.
Edit: I tried the xposed framework remap thing and it waits for an input. No button press detected. Sigh....
Same problem here with my Nexus S headphone. Tested the new headphone model from samsung (with volume -/+) and none of the buttons worked, same with the iPhone 5 headphone.
So far, the only headset that worked was the cheepo one that came with the device.

Yours came with a headset? mine did not! hahaha. I only got a white usb cable. Nothing else. I guess they had to cut at least some corners...
Mine is a Telus/Koodo 8GB.
Sony Smartkey app works with the Moto handset and with Sony headsets (single button). It can play/pause/next/prev when playing music and can map in a couple of other states.
By default, long press is for Google voice search.
