[THINK TANK] Porting Drivers from previous Bluez Bluetooth Stack to Vibrant? - Vibrant Android Development

I know CyanogenMOD is most likely going to be implementing this stack once its comes out on the Vibrant, but Im wondering how difficult it would be if we could port just the old bluez stack to current TouchWiz based Roms like bionix?
Is this is easily feasible? Has it been attempted? If anyone has any thoughts or ideas on this matter then lets fill up this tank!

2.2 will have everything you are asking for. Once we a leak or anything we can port we will have bluetooth hud.

Ive read in the i9000 forums that 2.2 will have bluetooth hid but bluez drivers will still be missing so apps like the wiimote controller will still not work. so im wondering how arduous of a task it would be to implement that specific stack.

In that, I'm not sure.. But I'm sure someone in here has an idea

Not sure, but I had asked this in a couple threads and no-one really had an answer. It does seem possible, but I think the Samsung BT drivers are not compatible with the bluez stack and that is why we still have no wiimote support.

The only option right now is cm7. Wiimote works great on my vibrant. Cm7 is still a little buggy, but very useable as a daily. The bugs right now aren't nearly as bad as the ones that have already been resolved in the day the cm7 vibrant developer has had his vibrant.
Try it out. Having wiimote support has been great, though I can only really see myself using it at home, when I'm near my wii with emulators.

Please, hear our claims! We really want to connect our wiimotes.
Is it so difficult to implement the bluetooth stack?

Nexus S bluetooth imp=wiimote?galaxys?

Hi all,
I have heard that the Nexus S works with Wiimote controller.apk and that users are succesfully using the wiimotes with their devices.
I am under the impression that both devices have the same bluetooth and wifi chips, does anyone know if any smart person has worked out a way to get the Wiimotes working with galaxy S, or ported the drivers etc?
I am using DArky V8 and BT mouse/keyboard are working well.
bump bump bump
Bump. This would be nice to get working with n64oid.
subscribing and bumping! this will be the icing on the cake if we can get this resolved. And no CM7 is not the answer as tv out does not work, at least not at the moment.

I have tried tons of things to get this to work and even killed three rom load outs. simply replacing files wont do it.
as of now with a 2.2 rom you can see the wiimote and get all the way to where you are asked to use a passkey, but the passkey is not skippable. Also the apps that are in the market are no longer either supported or updated, but now that Galaxy S devices have the HID capabilities it would be nice if one of those dev's look at the device to get it to work.
Isn't it something to do with TouchWiz????
I think I read that somewhere
It works in cyanogenmod7.

yes but CM7 is not stable yet.
I dont think any1 want to flash a new rom just to play some games with a wiimote and then flash another rom to use the "needed" parts of the phone, like the camera, 2g/3g etc.
To bad i would give a good donation if a dev would support this on the sgs
Any progress?

[Q] Anyone working on a port of gingerbread besides Cm7?

Just wondering if anyone has been working on porting gingerbread to the galaxy s devices, specifically the capitvate. If so, let me know. I have ported several Roms between different devices. I am looking for someone to work on this project with me. Please let me know if you are interested, or have already began porting. I am a linux software developer and am ready tto get this show on the road. Thanks!

They are the only ones that I am aware of. Have you tried contacting them?
They're both on the same track, and easily built from the same source changes. If you want to help, get up to speed and help the CM7 devs crack the last AOSP issues -- mostly the video driver.
Im working on getting in touch with them to work in sync with them.

[Q] USB Gamepads

Anyone had any luck getting a USB gamepad to work?
I know about the Wiimote, and that works fine. But I have plenty of old computer gamepads lying around that I could use. I tried a few, with the Gamepad IME app, but they don't seem to work (unless I'm missing something).
I'm on Vegan 1.5.1.
Wait for Ice Cream Sandwich
Firstly, you are not on vegan 1.5.1...you are on 5.1.1. I don't think Vegan Tab has great usb support, perhaps the caulkin+clemsyn rom? Try it out and let us know. I know Ice Cream Sandwich is supposed to support all sorts of USB devices like xbox controllers and such. Cant' Wait!

I'm thinking of upgrading to the Thrive when it comes out, which has Honeycomb. Maybe that will have better support.

Have you looked in the Gtab android development forums lately?
If you have a 360 controller and a kernel that supports pads, Google xpad.ko and view the xda thread.

I downloaded a native android game from the market called "crazy snowboard". With it installed on two andros devices that teesside in the same wifi network; you can set one device as the screen and one as a controller. This is extremely bad ass with my g-tab & evo. ZERO LAG.
Why is there no app that will do this system wide!?

The information on that page doesn't really do a great job as a walkthrough. :/
Then again it wasnt meant to be one.
Is anyone willing to make a more user friendly version? I'm sure the community would be extremely grateful.

I realize, I could have Honeycomb on the gTab, but it's not something I want to do at present. I don't mind changing ROMs, but mostly I just wanted to get to a good one and stick with it.
Vegan-Tab Gingeredition + latest pershoot kernel *.42 (http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/?p=2142) + xbox 360 USB pad. I don't know if the analog sticks work, but all the buttons do!
is there any reason why this wouldnt work with a froyo kernel like vegan 5.1?
The kernel modules aren't pre-built for that with the kernel that comes with froyo. Had to use the latest pershoot. Don't know if that kernel would work with froyo....

PORT: ICS for Vibrant SDK14 based DEVELOPMENT ONLY

Ported to Vibrant but same issues are present. awesome that it is available to play with though. I'm exicited now.. Gonna be testing a bunch of stuff over the next little while.
Used the vibrant modems and boot from LE-5.1 from Miui..
EDIT** VIBRANT DEVS ONLY http://www.multiupload.com/W3IAL52ICH
I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS RELEASE ALL I DID WAS REPLACE MODEM.BIN and BOOT.
FLASHED AND WORKED BUT SAME ISSUES REMAIN PRESENT.
Original Post from i9000 thread.
Please note the version posted will be a proof of concept version, and IS NOT for daily usage nor for people unknown to flashing etc.
It is being posted for development purposes only, however Lttldvl and I wish for this to be an open community, and which for other developers to help fix the issues that are still present.
The rom DOES NOT currently get passed the lockscreen, as touch sensors and screen resolution need fixed.
Edit: using 2 fingers or back key and menu key will get you past lockscreen.
This is a product of open source, let's see what WE CAN ALL DO with it..!
How to flash:
Exactly the same process as MIUI or CM7

+1...my sentiments exactly. Eugene used to do the impossible with Vibrant development. Those were the good old days.

Yep, freakin awesome ****
please let there be a stable port that is more stable than current gb ports (if thats even possible)!
True, but it is interesting.. Since it was posted in i9000 forum I thought I would send it over here since I was really excited.. I think something can be done as far as fixes.. I will keep watching the other thread and update this one as updates come out for the i9000.
Soon we will have ICS for Vibrant! It Is Possible!!
Yeah, good find, man.. hopefully a talented dev can look into it more for us Vibrant users.
By the way, here's the i9000 thread link for people that want to read more about it; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1324556

But will never run well....wait till source code drops

Yea we need some of Eugene expertise to get it done. Eugene where you at?
Where is the peoples wotrking on this? The l9000 thred is way more poppin
I believe that there are more I9000 users than T959, so maybe we should wait for a functional ROM for I9000 to start working on a ROM to our Vibrants

Need a kernel - HDMI while 3.5mm audio output

The problem is simple: I want to use HDMI while at the same time use my headphones connected to the phone. You may say "Why not use the HDMI sound?", it's because i'm trying to connect my phone to my projector, and it doesn't have speakers. So; i'm screwed.
I would like to ask: does someone have a solution, or a kernel to make me able to do this, or something?
Please help !!
EDIT: i'm running on Gingerbread, v20p. If it's somehow helpful to you to help me. ^_^
connect speakers to your projecter? thats what i do :}

Ya i just trird it..even instslled in system and didnt work...not a real surprise...ill try to decompile it when kids go to bed and see what i find.
edit:
This isnt going to help...it is just a program to toggle a setting already in rom. Im going to look at the cm7 but no promises im still weak in java. Also i believe the atrix dev team constructed there own framework for the hdmi mirroring in cm7 making it easy to add the audio toggle. May not be so easy to add to lg framework.
