[REQ] Wii controller!!!!

Is anyone working on a fix so we can get Bluetooth to accept keyuboards and contollers? I would like to use the wii controller on my evo. thanks for everyones help!

there was a thread on this with a beta to a program that fixes some of the problems i'm actually looking for it now.... can't find it.

Or support for the PS3 controller wouldn't hurt either

Yeah I second that motion

I am in for this.

I would sell body parts to get this to work.

man.. put this in the "things i never thought were even possible" category!! any of the above would blow my mind!!

Post a pledge of a few bucks to give the developers something to work for!

I know a guy who is working on ps3 support, hoping he can get it to work, another question does any know if it would be possible to use your evo to controll ps3, like a media player remote, i watch lots of 1080p mkv's on my ps3, it would be cool to use the evo as a remote for ps3 media playing

still no more movement?

I would be interested in this as well, getting a wii or PS3 controller to work with the Evo.
I would donate if someone were working on this.

30 bucks.
I'd love to be able to use bluetooth controllers and keyboards.

Its sense ui's fault just wait till darch makes an asop rom but ps3 would be cool

$50 to whoever gets this working. This is probably the reason I'll be switching to the Epic. I want my phone to be able to do unimaginable things. Looks like the EVO is happy with... just... normal things.

I've been working on a full Sega emulator (Master System/Genesis/SegaCD/32X) under Android and this is one thing I have planned on implementing with it. The Wii remote with the classic controller attachment is the perfect control set for the emulator. Granted, not everyone has one so touch controls will be implemented too.
Anyhow, what type of functionality are you looking for with the Wii remote on the phone? I am familiar with pairing it and gathering reports from it. I have some examples in C# but I'd need to port them to Android 2.1+.

I'd donate for a working Wii mote or PS3 controller compatibility!!!! Get some God of War on this biotch LMAO!!!

Me Too!

[HELP NEEDED] N64 to USB for Emulator FUN! [ACCESSORY REVIEW]

I ran into this while browsing Amazon. I've always loved the N64 controller layout and I found this:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B002B9FIUU
It's a N64 to USB adapter that I hope we can get to work with Emulators. I've tested the N64 controller in the N64oid app and I can't get it to work. I mapped the keys within the app and it does recognize the key presses when mapping. When the game starts the START button doesn't seem to to work.
The controller however does work when I'm on the home screen. I can move back and forth between screens and with the Analog stick.
I'm wondering if I can somehow pull the WiiMote controller app and recode it to work with the N64oid. I'm looking for suggestions on what we can do to get this to work. No documentation came with this accessory and there is a switch on it which I'm assuming switches from N64 to PS2 controller. I've only tested this in N64oid but I will try in the other emulators and see if it works. I contacted the dev of WiiMoteController to see if he'd be willing to make an app for N64.
Here are some shots of the accessory in question:

Thats cool i always wanted the snes adapter but n64 blows it away

Most definitely. I just want some input before I pull the trigger. I would be playing N64oid the most if not primarily and I need my Super Smash Brothers fix.

It's a N64 to USB adapter. I ordered 2 OTG cables and I believe that it'll work but I hope someone can confirm. I have a ton of these lying around my house and I'm dying to use it. I'm pretty sure I have an old OTG at home so I'm going to turn my house upside down today to look for it.
It's priced reasonably. Feel free to chime in. I hope this is a great find.

I would think any controller should work as long as it had the proper controller layout file in android. The PS3 and Xbox controllers have specific layout files so I would think one would be needed for a N64 controller.

I have a similar adapter for Playstation 2 Controller to USB and it only emulates mouse movements (left joystick) other buttons are not recognized. Proceed with caution.

I think I will buy it and be a guinea pig. Worst case scenario I'll just sell it to my friend who games with emulators on his laptop.

Did you try it out?

I ordered through Amazon and it took forever so I cancelled. I had better luck on eBay with the items coming from China.

I found one on eBay and ordered it today. Here's the one I got:
http://cgi.ebay.com/PS2-N64-CONTROL...Accessories&hash=item3368e62969#ht_1351wt_648
It's shipping from the U.S according to the eBay listing so hopefully I'll get it early next week. I will test this as soon as I get it and let you guys know. This would be the ultimate controller for N64oid (obviously).
I'll fill you guys in when I get it.

I'd be interested to know if it works - had trouble mapping up all the keys on a ps3 pad
e.g. the c buttons along with z/l/r/u/d/l/r/a/b

Yeah it wasn't that expensive but I hope it works. I will try this as soon as I get it. If it doesn't work I would imagine someone can make an app that can map the keys for the N64 controller like the WiiMoteController app.

GF wants to see stupid fireworks and I may be forced to go.

Just found this thread after wondering this same question - I like how Nesoid and Snes EX run with the Wii Classic Controller but n64oid just doesn't feel the same without the N64 controller.
Any updates on this? Eager to know.
Thanks!

[REVIEW] Phonejoy bluetooth gamepad - new video bluetooth multiplayer via MHL!

A little something for retro gamers (or just gamers) amongst us:
http://blog.clove.co.uk/2011/07/21/...phonejoy-refresh-dual-analog-sticks-are-a-go/
...and now N64oid updated to 2.4 for bluetooth multiplayer support!
http://www.androidnz.net/2011/09/n64oid-updates-to-24-multiple-bluetooth.html

Nice video.
I've already pre-ordered mine. Hopefully it will come soon enough.

Talking to Martin at Phonejoy it should be very soon!

i liked this concept, but it would have been a 'yes' from me, if only they incorporated a keyboard style controller, which we could attach to our s2 ;(

I got an email from the makers just a couple of minutes ago to say they are making one just like that (similar to the iControlPad, one that the phone sits within). Its presently in the design stages.

Wanna have one

Hope 2 see it soon ;-)
I already thought of making my own construction.

Clove have a pre-order going on these now, they need 50 orders by the 15th of August to go ahead (no idea how many they currently have). If you are keen its worth looking into.
http://www.clove.co.uk/phonejoy-analog-android-game-controller

Disappointing. So the 'Analog' sticks aren't Analog after all, hence running everywhere in Mario and the sniper issues you mention. Pretty pointless upgrade from the original then no?
Or is it that the emulators are just not programmed to understand the analog instructions?

It'll work with any HID supporting device - which at the moment is a lot more devices that you'll find with PS3 support.
True PS3 support is starting to get out there though - if you're on CM7 or MIUI you should be able to use a PS3 remote right now, since there is a software out that can do it (forget the name, search for sixaxis in the Market brings it up).

If you have a custom ROM with a normal bluetooth stack, yes. There is a sixaxis app in the market for a couple of dollars IIRC, there's also a free app to make sure it'd work before you buy it.

Yeah that's a big plus for me at the moment I guess - I'm now rooted but I'm happy with stock (and don't fancy playing with buggy nightlies again).
It just struck me as a little pricey for something that sounded very cheapo (maybe it was just the recording). My Datel retro controller only cost £17ish - although that's as limited as a PS3 controller with regards to bluetooth, sadly.
Do we have MIUI for SGS2? I might look into that...

In hindsight, I think I'm gonna try and get one of these - there's a crappy dilemma with the PS3 controller:
- Put custom ROM on, allow PS3 controller to work with 'normal' BT stack, sacrifice TV-Out via MHL/HDMI
- Stay stock, retain TV-Out but obviously unable to use PS3 controller.
Seems Clove decided not to stock them though, that sucks.

Ive ordered one from the phonejoy website. I was using CM7 before to play with my ps3/wiimote controller, but I need my TV out too. So back to a rom which allow my TV out and buying that controller.
I was going to go with an Icontrolpad, but its at least X2 more expensive than this one... Gonne give a review when ill get it, it should take +-1-2 months... that suck haha

Yep, the TV Out is an important aspect for me, and part of the reason I'll be sticking with the Phonejoy for now at least.
iControlPad is just plain worse for use with TV Out, while it is better for portability the price seems pretty unrealistic to me. Phonejoy have been developing a similar control pad to the iControlPad style, no ETA on availability etc, but its in the works.
Incidentally, the latest Jirioni Arcade update is compatible with the MAME4ALL ROM set, pretty good with this set up!

And why icontrolpad is worse for tv out? You dont need to have the cellphone right to it, so icontrolpad or phonejoy will do the same thing in the end. I know icontrolpad can have some claw to hold the cellphone, but theyre not needed to use it.

some Phonejoys are appearing on ebay UK now.. i got mine for like £41.00, cheaper that his website and shipped from the uk
I'm really quite impressed with it, love using the sticks in games like Syphon Filter. So good using TV out on a big screen, my phone is now basically a super portable multi-console. love it

Reason the iControlPad is worse is that its a worse controller configuration for emulating systems like the PSX/N64, if you're tethered to the TV then its mobility advantage is irrelevant.

i guess you gotta import one from the UK. there's some on ebay.

Very nice!
But very expensive. The exchange rate makes it effectively $60-70.

At that price you're better off using a PS3 controller + USB OTG adapter.

Even easier than that and much more convenient..get a Sixaxis ps3 wireless controller and reprogram the Bluetooth on it to match you s3 .. I use it all the time

I currently use my dual shock 3, but I was wondering if any of you use something different?

How are you able to connect to the OG? I used to be able to connect my wii remote to play nes.emu rooms but for some reason google changed something in 4.2.2 and now it won't connect. It asks for a pin but I've searched everywhere for an answer.
idk how I got here...

To be honest I haven't tried yet on 4.2.2 I just started using Rootbox about 2 days ago. Glad you said that, now I'm having issues with gettin the Sixaxis app to work.
***Update*** I cleared the data of the Sixaxis App and it updated the bluetooth address, it now works for me.

Sounds nice, will try a wireless Xbox360 Controller later on, been messing with those quite a bit ( SCREW YOU MICROSOFT I MOD MY XBOX OUT OF SPITE!! )
and I've done some work with the Xbox360 but I'll try.

I buddy of mine got the Moga Pro, and it's great for the LGOG. I don't have to take my Diztronic case off of it, and it still fits into the mounting bracket. Overall, it is very comfortable. The only bummer, and it's not due to the controller, was that I couldn't map any buttons for Call of Duty: Zombies. You have to use the screen to control the game. Worked flawlessly with Dead Trigger. Moga's app is kind of lame, too.

And this is the only advantage of using the Sixaxis app because there is touch emulation. Would be sweet if there was a universal app that did the same thing with other controllers, there may be but I just haven't discovered it yet.

I've always wondered how people use their sixaxis controller to play games on their Android.
How do you play? your both hands are holding the sixaxis, what's holding your phone? Or is there a way to hold your phone on top of the sixaxis.
I would like to know because I want to use my sixaxis, but feel really weird holding the sixaxis and my phone on my lap. I want to know if there is a controller that can hold a phone similar to the MOGA controller but much less expensive.

Well I was using a Gametel to play all my old favorite NES, SNES, SMS and Genesis games, but after minimal use the right side of the d-pad stopped working. Seems to be a common problem.
As much as I love the design and the way it fits in my hands the durability makes me say avoid at all costs.

Looks cool to me- I might check it out because I'd rather have it all together- meaning like a handheld console where the controls are on either side of the screen.
