Requirement - Wii remote drivers

we just had a thread relating to getting PS3 controller drivers for Windows mobile.
I have been using my Wii remote to play games on my N95 for years now. I wish I had the technical know how to even begin trying to port over to windows mobile.
It might be a bit greedy starting a whole new thread for this but I just wanted to have something on the dev forum clearly stating there is a requirement for Wiimote drivers.
The Wiimote has 5 buttons on its face. A proper joypad, accellerometers and also level tracking gyroscope thingys. It is also small and cheaper than most other Big company pads i.e. 360 pad and PS3 pad.
There is also the added bonus that many people on here will probably have Wii's in there cuboard doing absolutely nothing like mine was (until I hacked my Wii mehehe with bannerbomb)
Anyway - these links were posted by:

Wii remote would be awesome as many projects for pc exist and they shouldn't be to hard to port to PPC for some of the members we have here check out what is going on in these links :

Let's hope someone get's inspired "
Maybe this sole post will help to get someone inspired.
Hell Ill pay a few squids to help get someone a wii mote or 2 if needed.
Kind regards all

But first you need to manage to connect to the wiimote. I just can't get past the security code on my Raphael. BTW i have being using glovepie with wiimote for years now. I wonder it is possible to port pc version of glovepie to PPC?

there is an app on the andriod marketplace for that I saw... haven't tested it but obviously it must be possible

Yeah I remember some discussion of this a long time ago in regards to game console emulators like Morphgear. It would be especially useful for touch screen phones without buttons like the HTC Touch HD. This definitely would be awesome!

Have to jump in and give this thread another bump please get inspired this could be the best thing to happen to the PPC

Hi guys,
There's actually a Wiimote like bluetooth controller for windows mobile. It's called Zeemote.
It's for symbian, nokia, blackberry and iPhone but it will soon be ported to windows mobile. (currently in beta-testing)

Prerequisites:
PS3 Controller
A compatible Windows Mobile device. Check the Compatibility list. Is your device not listed? Try out CobaltController and post your results; I'll update this post.
A PS3 Controller (I don't know if non-Sony 3rd party controllers work - maybe they do, maybe they don't).
A desktop or laptop computer with a USB port to set the controller's master address.
Linux - Use sixpair - directions in this thread somewhere, search for "Ubuntu"
Windows - Use Motion in Joy, but please note that Motion in Joy uses a different MAC format (little endian vs big endian) so for example, when I run CobaltController on my Touch Pro2 it displays "BT ADDR: 00:23:76:70:6B:4D" so I enter it into Motion in Joy as 4d.6b.70.76.23.00
Wii Controller
A compatible Windows Mobile device. Check the Compatibility list. Is your device not listed? Try out CobaltController and post your results; I'll update this post. Devices with the Microsoft Bluetooth Stack can't use the Wiimote yet.
A Wii Controller.
XBOX 360 Controller
Not Going To Happen
In order to get the XBOX 360 controller to work in windows you need to purchase a wireless receiver - it doesn't use bluetooth. It needs additional hardware. So if a full desktop Windows PC can't even do it without additional hardware, I seriously doubt it will ever work for our phones. Some company could come up with an xbox 360 wireless receiver for Windows Mobile, but again, very doubtful. And since I don't even have an XBOX of any kind, I know I'm not going to be motivated enough to even try.
Initial One Time Setup for PS3 Controllers:
Setting the PS3 controller's master address to your phone's bluetooth mac address via Windows:
Download and install Motion in Joy.
Run DS3 Tool, installed in the previous step.
Click the "About" tab in DS3 Tool to see the version. If DS3 Tool is less than 0.5.0003 you will need to update.
Connect your PS3 Controller to your computer via the USB cable and wait while Windows recognizes the new device.
Click on the "BluetoothPair" tab.
In the DUALSHOCK 3 drop down list select your controller. If it says "Can't find connected(USB) Playstat":
Click "Driver Manager" directly above the drop down list
Click "Load" and wait for it to finish
Return to the "BluetoothPair" tab
Run CobaltController on your Windows Mobile device to get its BT address.
Enter that BT address into the text box directly above the DUALSHOCK 3 drop down list. Note that Motion in Joy uses a different MAC format (little endian vs big endian) so for example, a bluetooth address of "00:23:76:70:6B:4D" is entered it into Motion in Joy as "4d.6b.70.76.23.00"
Click the radio button next to this textbox to make sure that it uses the one you entered and not the one above it which is to connect your controller to your PC
Click "Pair Now"
If all went well your controller is now configured to talk to your Windows Mobile device. Go to the "Quick Start" tab and click "Disconnect".
Unplug your PS3 Controller.
As long as you don't pair your controller with any other device (like your PS3) then you never have to do this again. If you do pair the controller with a another device and wish to re-pair it with your phone again, repeat the above steps.
Widcomm Stack Specifics:
Turn on bluetooth and set it to discoverable. Thanks to ryotgz, skilty, and gorelshv for this information. I believe it is only required the first time you use CobaltController. Once you have successfully connected, BT does not have to be in discoverable mode any longer so you can change it back to invisible to save battery life.
Make sure that the checkbox is not checked where it says "Allow only devices listed in 'My Devices' to connect".
If you have never tried to connect the PS3 controller to your phone before (or at least not since the last hard reset or rom flash) it will fail to connect at first and you'll get a bunch of pop ups with PLAYSTATION(R)3 Controller shown in bold asking for the pin. Keep tapping cancel as it pops up and wait for everything to stop trying to connect. After all that, try again and it should connect just fine and should always connect right away in the future without the pin prompts. There is no pin (that I know of at least) I'm bypassing security on both the PS3 and Wii connections (even though we do know the pin for the Wiimote is the host's mac backwards.)
Microsoft Stack Specifics:
TURN OFF BLUETOOTH The MS stack does not like the PS3 controller and will NOT pair with it. I ended up writing a modified version of this stack to get around this problem, but it will conflict with the real MS stack so they can't both be on at the same time.
Your phone will reboot when you disconnect the controller.
PS3 Controller Specifics:
Press the PS button to connect and then later to disconnect
Wii Controller Specifics:
Press the red Sync button to connect. Hold down the Power button to disconnect.
Common:
All 4 LEDs should flash a few times and then only the player one LED should remain lit showing it connected.
The driver stops running after you disconnect to save battery life. Run it again to reconnect. It's in Start Menu\Programs\Games
Registry Values are stored in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cobaltikus\CobaltController
Currently only 1 controller can be active at a time but I am exploring the ability to add more.
Once you are connected you can tap Menu > Exit to close the configuration program and your controller will remain connected, and the driver will continue to run until your controller is disconnected.
To Do: (not necessarily in this order)
Get Wiimote working on devices with the Microsoft Bluetooth stack
Figure out why this doesn't work on the TG01 and HTC Vogue and fix it
2 player support
Battery meter
Integrate LeSScro graphics
Clean up Microsoft stack code to eliminate the need to reboot
Add support for non-touch-screen devices
Attachments
CobaltController.vX.X.cab = Installs to \Program Files\CobaltController\ and a shortcut goes to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Games
NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab = Although the CobaltController driver is written in native C++, the UI is written in .Net 3.5, therefore you will need to have .NetCF 3.5 installed on your device to run the UI. You might already have this by default so try without this first, and come back if you get an error message about needing it.
NETCFv35.Messages.EN.wm.cab = Provides more details when .Net errors occur with any program written in .Net 3.5. This is optional and only needed if a .Net error occurs and you wish to see more details about that error.
Change Log

Bluetooth Address shown on screen so you don't have to search for it
229 fix - it could cause you to not like how the SIP works in other programs but you can always restore, so no worries.
I might have forgotten about another change or two but these are all the important ones.
v0.4
Updated Instructions (Menu > Help > Instructions > [PS3|Wii])
Added Menu > Help > About to verify version

Buttons - There are editable registry values to modify the button mappings - below are the defaults
Code:
Sixaxis Button Keyboard Equivalent
-------------- -------------------
SELECT A
LEFTCLICK B
RIGHTCLICK C
START Enter
UP Up
RIGHT Right
DOWN Down
LEFT Left
L2 D
R2 E
L1 F
R1 G
TRIANGLE Space
CIRCLE O
X X
SQUARE Backspace
These are all the digital buttons - I will eventually implement the left analog stick to send Up, Right, Down, and Left. Not yet sure what to do with the right stick... window scrolling maybe?

I didn't
I used Visual Studio 2008 + Windows Mobile 6 SDK + Widcomm SDK
I'm using L2CAP
Although the HID GUID is not defined, you can hard code the values for it and vwahlah - it works!
It runs great on my Sprint Touch Pro2 and also the HTC HD2 but should work for any Windows Mobile device with a Widcomm Bluetooth stack - again though I fully plan to tackle the M$ stack as well and also add support for the wiimote.

wow can't wait for the wii remote but even ps3 is best thing to happen to wm thanks and i look forward to testing this

Version 0.1 Available NOW!!!

v0.2 will have M$ stack support - working on it now

Request:
That would be really cool if someone would write a nice app to set the sixaxis master bluetooth address that doesn't require a pc with bluetooth and other apps. That would make my app even better - cuz I know the setup really sucks - but believe me it is worth it, especially if your phone also has TV Out.

Have you gotten it to work with Fpsece?

I've been lurking on the other BT controller thread and I must say I was very anxious to see what you guys could pull off! Great, great work!!!

same here as above, lurking in the BT Controller thread (and even in the request thread for PS3 on PPC)
where the **** is the donation address I said I had $5 for a working PS3 and while I havent had the chance to test it yet I want to ****ing donate as soon as I have (yes the word **** was necessary to use, it conveys emotion and as is said, words are only as powerful as you make them)

It would be awsome if this could trigger some devs to make it vice versa, so that you can use your phone to control media stuff on the ps3

nice one !
can't wait to get back home to try this !!!!!!
THX !!!!!

I was looking into that a little bit and it seems completely possible - it's just a matter of devoting the time. If no one else does it first I'll probably end up doing it eventually - after this program grows more
My main goal right now as far as this is concerned is to get it working on all windows mobile phones.

good job, lets hope we can get it working with FPSECE, if thats the case i am willing to donate £5. you better get your paypal address sorted!
thanks

hi sounds nice. i will be real happy if it worked with wiimote

Awesome man! Looking forward to trying this on my HD2!

I agree. I use my PS2 to watch a lot of movies and it would be great if I could use my phone as the remote control instead of using the standard controller.

How about Morphgear?
I'm all for OSS apps so this seems only natural
Morphgear is very similar with Smartgear with the difference of being free and open for development (you can get the sources at SourceForge). And it surely could use a boost and more attention.

I don't see why it wouldn't work with FPSECE - it works with anything that accepts keyboard input - you can even text with it so long as you don't need more letters than A, B, C, D, E, F, G, O, and X, maybe I should use letters like WTFLMAO instead...
I put a link to donate in the first post http://www.cobaltikus.com
If you donate - that would be awesome - I've never received any donations before.

[APP] UControl: Wireless mouse (wii-like control)

You MUST try this app. It allows you to control your mouse and keyboard remotely. But the real neat thing is that thanks to the gyroscope in the Galaxy S2, the phone works like a wii remote. It is really impresive!
Installing a program on your computer is necesary, and make sure you put the app in "pointer mode". Here goes the link to the android market:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.negusoft.ucontrol
Please give some feedback: opinion, experiences...
...and enjoy!

Nice app
Impressive! thanks!
In fact, I already had the app installed but I didn't realize the "pointer mode" till I read it here. I really advice this app, specially for us who have a gyro enabled phone.

I had Nokia Suite installed the by clicking the start icon for the PC agent, it always launched Nokia Suite. I uninstalled Nokia Suite and now it works fine.
Great App!

Remote Control W10M

Hi,
Is there any app to remote control a W10M device ??
On Android devices and W8/10 desktops I use TeamViewer and I like it much, however, the W10M version allows me to control another device from the phone but not to control the phone from another device...
What I want is to be able to control a Lumia 650 from a Windows PC. Any utility for that ?? Any way to RDP into W10M ??
Thanks in advance,
Manuel
[ I'm new to W10Mobile (Today!), I've done a search but not found anything about it... ]

nope sorry,isnt possible. no app has enough permissions (or is able to get enough) to do that. dunno if it was possible in the past with the project my screen app (via usb) to make inputs, but that feature isnt implemented in win 10 mobile (was only available in 8(.1)) either way (only screen sharing via miracast is possible with 10 mobile, or continuum)

Thanks for your answer. I suspected it but had some hope...
This is a real drawback, no way to give remote support to users !!
iOS and Android both work really well with TeamViewer..
W10M supposedly has Universal app, but the remote control is just one way... and I need just the other !!
Thanks, Regards,

for such things there a no api, should be possible for a dev to make a "look"on the device possible, but only within that one app. and thats useless, everything else would need deep system access/integration. and that is just not possible (and somehow against ms' safety concept of windows 10 mobile)
call me old fashioned, but i find it useless either way. anyone who needs "remote support" for his phone shouldnt be allowed to have a smartphone or using the internet at all (yes im voting for a "internet driving license", but sadly that system doesnt work on the street at all too...)

hehe... please don't give such ideas... Internet driving license... plus taxes, of course !!
Actually I have lots of that kind of users to support... That's why I need a remote tool !
Once resigned to not having it... MS concept of "safety" seems too different on Desktop than on mobile. WDesktop has RDP tightly integrated (That was my last hope on mobile, to have sth simmilar, but no luck... ) and lots of apps to remote control... Including the W10M version of TeamViewer, that allows you to control a Windows Desktop, and even a Windows Server !!)
It's only me, or... seems weird?

There is a app named "Teamviewer Quicksupport preview" which can be used for remotely control w10 mobile.but it's only available for Redstone user..

Redstone mean insider fast ring?

You can also remote control your device using device portal in developer settings of your Windows 10M. To use it from your phone, go to "127.0.0.1" in your browser. From other device through common Wi-Fi or hotspot connection, your phone's ip address as the link in browser of android device.
(this has some cool stuffs to use).

Windows on Note

Hi,
I've a GT-N5110 and I was wondering if there's any Windows 10 emulator or if anyone tried to install on it. I couldn't find anything on the forum.
Tks!

Interesting Topic..
I will search for you on that and I will get back to you if I found anything.
MSDN

Your best bet is a remote desktop to a windows PC. It actually works very well on the Note 8, with the pen.

en.miui.com/thread-189369-1-1.html
Doesnt have someway to port this to other devices?

You can install windows directly onto your android device. But I wouldn't recommend it as it takes up allot of space.

Yes you can install windows xp https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1389700
I tried to but it's very slow and anything works. I mean wifi bluetooth etc etc
