Anyone on here used the iCade 8-Bitty Bluetooth controller with any emulators on the HTC One yet? I was able get one cheap but I know how buggy this stuff can be with different phone manufacturers. I really wish Android supported Bluetooth controllers without having to use an app. I play a lot of emulation on my phone and the on screen touch controls just aren't the same. I have read that some custom phone Rom's have capabilities of supporting devices like Wii-motes and PS3 controllers. But it seems neither work on HTC devices with Stock Roms. I hope it works when it finally arrives! :fingers-crossed:
Actually, the Wiimote does work on the Sense rooms with BluezIME. You have to download the separate file as per the instructions in the app, but works fine. It emulates an HID device so I don't believe the joysticks work on a classic controller, but good enough for SNES games. Hope this helps - maybe I should post a separate thread so people know about this method.
Btw I checked BluezIME and with the hid enabler, it has a setting for iCade. Even better!

Wow I will have to check that out. I did a lot of searching online the other night and downloaded an app for Wiimotes but it wouldn't connect to my controller. It came out with some error saying it had known issues with Sense Roms. I also tried the PS3 one and it also had issues. SNES games is exactly what I wanted a controller for. Thanks!
Newer Wiimotes won't connect. To any Rom You'll have to find an older one. Theres literally no way sense could cause a Bluetooth controller to not work.

Granted I have a limited understanding of this, but it seems to me the blue tooth stack is integrated in to Sense (or Touch with for Samsung phones)
My relatively new Wiimote (the new motion plus) and classic works fine in BluezIME. And the wiimote/sixaxis apps both say they usually don't work with sense roms. BluezIME works because it emulates HID mode, natively supported. Fwiw.

I should reword. Newer Wiimotes won't work. Wiimotes with motion plus do. It has something to do with the Bluetooth key in the wiimotes themselves. They won't even work on pc.
I don't see how a bluetooth lib would be changed to the point it breaks functionality(or at all really) but I suppose sense could be an issue.

I believe the old ones I have are from a launch system, so I can't speak for new ones. But they never worked on my Evo 3D (I don't recall if I tried BluezIME, only the Wiimote app. Once Cyanogenmod was ported, they worked without a hitch. So it seems to be some issue with how HTC implements Bluetooth, beyond that I can't say. Oddly, I believe One X users were able to use them, I'm not sure, but if so that's very unusual that it's back to not working. Oh well. BluezIME works fine for my purposes, usb-otg cable is in the mail and I'm hoping that works, if not no big deal
I have an original launch Wii controller and I was able to get it to connect. It took a couple tries it kept asking for a passkey. But eventually it took. So it does work which is great. But when I plugged in the classic controller it got a little crazy. Setting up the button mapping in SuperGNES didn't go very well. It was almost like a button was auto pressing everytime I selected a button to map. I'm a little too tired to figure it out tonight but will probably dig into it a little more tomorrow.

So bad news - I bought a USB-OTG cable. Keyboard, mouse, thumbdrive, all plug and play. Works fine. But PS3 remote and an old off-brand I had lying around do not. Why do they insist on removing gamepad support? It works fine in stock Android - has since, what, ICS? Guess I'll probably jump to MIUI, supposing we see it. Maybe I'll take a stab at the kernel source and see what I can find. Doubt I'm skilled enough for that sort of thing, though.
My iCade 8Bitty controller finally came in today. It works great with the emulators I use. Didn't have to do anything fancy to get it to work, pretty smooth sailing. Simple set up. Looks like it will work with any app/game that says it supports it. :good:
Too lazy to look for the info at 4AM, but yes, Sense is a major issue that breaks Bluetooth functionality. Something in Sense was causing a conflict in the Bluetooth driver, so HTC disabled certain functions in the driver. As a result, Wiimotes, as well as some other devices, won't work. Apparently HTC finally got around to fixing the issue rather than just sweeping it under the rug. Good for them. And us.

Hey guys, so it just occured to me today, Wii Remote is Bluetooth... Tilt is Bluetooth... you do the math. To me this sounds like a realy good idea but I have not been able to find any thing usefull to make it work once I connect the two, can anyone help me out?
It's been talked over and over, but nobody got anywhere. I personally posted a thread on it a while back but nobody seems to have made any progress since nobody really seems serious about it. The idea itself is very nice however.
It's been done on PC, so yes it's of course possible. But that would be a load of work to port it on WM, and frankly what would you control with a Wiimote on a PPC? Play one day with it to wow your friends and that's it? Not really worth the time and effort...
Well, there's a few obvious drawbacks.
1. No practical IR sensor solution, so pointer's out of the question.
2. The wii-mote's about as big as the phone.
3. Drivers would need to be developed.
However, you'd be able to do the following.
1. Map the buttons to do whatever you want.
2. Play audio through the wiimote(if you so wanted).
3. Have one-touch program launching capabilities without grabbing your phone.
If you ask me, somebody should do it just for the sheer geekiness of it.
And also eventually a PS3 Bluetooth remote too.
There is a posibillity to get this work with few effort. It's a .NET Library which also should work on WM-Phones! Found it on Wiibrew.org or something like that...
would make it awesome for playing games you could play all the snes and megadrive games and it would be sooper cool! and easy to say the least!
not possible.
Wii remote has built in accelerometer.
you can however use the Wii remote as a G-Meter for you car when you hook it up to your laptop.

That's besides the point; we're wanting just to use it as bt game controller for playing stuff like Mario which afaik doesn't require any accelerometer.
@ kilrah, i would have to disagree with that. It'd be a whole lot of fun using since the bt game pads that are made for PPCs are so lame; i'd be playing on my device a whole lot more if i could use the wiimote.

1. You already have a large assortment of buttons accessible to program directly on the phone. If you need more buttons than your kaiser has, then just open the keyboard!
2. The wii remote audio is no better sounding than the audio built into the kaiser. Besides, just use your Kaiser to control your audio center on your computer!
3. What will you launch remotely on the phone that you will be able to see from a distance anyway? Seems to me that you would need the phone nearby in order to see what you are controlling anyway.
Total waste of time because there are NO benefits. Just more batteries to charge. No offense for picking on you but I agree with the previous poster. There is no beneficial purpose for trying to use a wii on a kaiser.
Reason for posting
I started this thread cuz i am running NES and GBA games on my TyTAN II and I would love to be able to play using the wii mote. I have been looking into it myself but to be honest I have about as much programming skill as a wet sponge.

Ive used several bluetooth keyboards that had way too much lag to try to play a game using the directional controls. I somehow doubt that a Wii remote would respond much faster . . . . . . .
Not to be a spoil sport. Hell AFAIK someone has already made the BT on the kaiser responsive enough to use . . . . .

I beg to differ; if you came from an 8525 to the Tilt, you'll see that the button placement for games is less practical. For the 8525, you could at least have your hands separated at length of the phone so that not everything was crunched; the same can not be said for the Tilt.
How cool would it be to have your Tilt tilted on the desk and you playing a few feet away? Pretty nice imo. To you there might be no benefits, to some of us, it opens a whole new world of gaming

Admittedly, however you will have to overcome the lag issue . . . . .
What lag issue?
Look 3 posts up
I have had 3 different kaisers and 3 different bluetooth keyboards. Ive tried playing many a game using directional controls on the keyboards and in all 6 combinations , there was too much time between the time i hit the key and the command was interpreted by the kaiser. IE, Controlling Mario in Super Mario brothers using NES emu, if i use the keyboard on the kaiser, mario controlled just fine. When using a bluetooth device mario took approx .5 seconds to start moving after pressing the keys. Thusly, he stopped .5 seconds after the key was depressed or jumped .5 seconds too late.
THIS is the lag i was referring to. I can ONLY assume its because of the lag / latency between a bluetooth device and the bluetooth radio in the kaiser.
ALSO, I tested this with multiple roms and radios, including changing the BT related registry settings.
**EDIT**
This lag may not cause an issue playing puzzle games like tetris ( until you get to the upper levels where reaction time really matters )
Hi I found the link: http://www.codeplex.com/WiiMoB/
hmm, there is such a Program for symbian and nokia n95 etc.
why should it not work on kaiser ???
With the recent release of the CDMA kernel, will there be developments toward making the BGP100 (pocketnow.com/review/bgp100-bluetooth-gamepad), or any other bluetooth gamepad compatible with android? Or is the issue in the bluetooth api or something? I really would like to play Link to the Past without extreme difficulty controlling Link
Probably not going to get support for that anytime soon. Bluetooth is a universal component, but you must have support for specific profiles in order to use the functions of those profiles. We are just now getting OPP and PBAP Bluetooth Profiles once we get Android 2.0 or higher, and earlier platforms only natively support A2DP/AVRC and HSP/HFP. The profile support you would need for an external keypad would be HID.
I use the trackball myself to play ROM's, and SNESoid has a virtual keypad too, so you probably don't need something like that to still be able to play.

I don't see how you play any of the "oid" emulators on the Hero.
What would be nice would bale to hook a PS3 controller, either bluetooth or USB, to a Hero & be able to use it for emulators...
The biggest problem you'd have with a bluetooth gamepad driver is the fact that no Android phone has a real gamepad, so most games don't even try to handle that particular input scenario. As a practical matter, MAME and NES/Gameboy/other console emulators are the only software that would really know what to do with one. The problem is that when no real standard gamepad exists for a platform, games end up being written that don't even assume that a gamepad is a possibility. Sure, some games might pay lip service to users playing with a trackball as a faux digital gamepad... but that mode usually isn't tested very well, because it tends to be so dysfunctional for real users, it ends up being more like a tacked-on afterthought.
Just look at the mess PC gamepads have been, basically forever. In the beginning, they emulated legacy analog joysticks, and sort of worked, because back then games DID actually tend to support joysticks. Then they became more sophisticated, added buttons, went digital, and ceased to be meaningfully useful with 99% of PC games... because games almost universally at that point had migrated to keyboard control. USB arrived, solved the driver problem, and made us realize that games still didn't have a clue how to deal with gamepads... we just never managed to get the damn faux-MIDI drivers working long or consistently enough to notice. Even today, you can go out, buy an expensive PS3/X-Box-like gamepad, and struggle to find a game that really puts it to good use, and doesn't leave you handicapped with it relative to someone playing with a gaming mouse or keyboard.
Ditto, for Windows Mobile. I have the same bluetooth gamepad you do... I think I managed to find 3 games that really put it to good use... and THAT was only because the games pretended that the usual 5-way controller found on most WM phones wasn't completely dysfunctional for gameplay... so by emulating one, the game would actually work.
Personally, I'd kill for a phone with the body of a Sidekick LX 2009, and the soul of a Nexus One
Thanks for the replies guys, I knew it was more complicated than I thought.
Yes I currently play Snesoid and Gameboid with the trackball, but there's no real control for action games. I love RPGs on the emulators though.
If the games supported them, and the companies made them, there'd be a nice market for mobile phone gamepads. I guess the masses aren't exactly demanding them though, well besides me
Well, assuming T-Mobile's "buy your own phone and get a huge monthly discount" catches on (or at least remains available from T-Mobile), I can easily see us having a HUGE assortment of carrier-agnostic phone hardware to play with 3-5 years from now. In fact, I'll go so far as to even predict that Microsoft is going to do two things to save Windows Mobile from irrelevance:
1) Release Windows Mobile 7 as a boxed retail product suitable for upgrading existing phones with supported hardware (read: anything made by HTC over the past 5 years, even if the hardware really, really isn't up to the task of handling WM7)
2) Ensure that almost any halfway-conventional phone shipped with Android can be reflashed with Windows Mobile.
Essentially, we'll have with phones the situation that exists with laptops: it might come with Android or Windows Mobile, but reflashing it to run the other instead (or running both with VMware Phone Edition) won't be much harder than doing it is today with a PC. Apple will still be living in its sealed-off bubble, skimming the cream from the wealthiest market segment that just wants their phone to be pretty and work.
The supreme irony is that it will probably be Microsoft that puts an end to the need to root our phones to do our own upgrades once and for all. They themselves wouldn't dare to risk the wrath of the US Federal Government by making it impossible to install Android on a Windows Mobile phone... and you can bet they'll scream bloody murder if they decide to start selling Windows Mobile as a retail product, and Android phones continue to get sold that make it impossible (without rooting) for end users to install it. Google won't stand for mischief by Microsoft, but I suspect it will be perfectly happy to hold Microsoft's hand long enough to push the carriers and federal government to create a platform-neutral playing field where anybody (with the technical means to do so) can flash anything they want onto the phone hardware they buy. Microsoft and Google are adversaries and opponents... their enemies are the American CellCos that would lock everything down and force users into walled gardens if they could get away with it... and in the meantime, will do their best to try anyway.
If you are interested in alternatives to the MSI or Chainpus BGP100 bluetooth gamepad, google search "modded by bacteria" go to the "work in progress" section of his forums, and search for the thread "Re-housed Bluetooth controller". The creator of the site, Bacteria, will be transplanting the innards of the BGP100 into an SNES controller. Previously, he has transplanted it into a PS1 controller. It seams feasible to DIY into almost any controller housing.
Hello all
I thought i would let you know of my set up i have for my nexus 7, ever since day 1 on nexus ownership the desktop has been un used, it is such a amazing tablet, far better that ipads and other android tabs which ive owned.
if anyone is looking for a do-it-all set up i have to let you know of mine.
I wanted a Bluetooth keyboard so i got the Logitech android Bluetooth keyboard which was great, after a bit of use i thought i would get a Bluetooth mouse as i didn't want USB cables all over, so i got the Microsoft wedge tough, such a weird mouse, but it is fantastic. The problem was lag, when i had both the keyboard and mouse on (both Bluetooth) they keyboard kept lagging, for example if i typed android it would look like andrrrrrrrrrrrrrroid. this was so annoying so i got the wedge Bluetooth keyboard, again a fantastic keyboard and connected them both, the problem was still there so i experimented with some applications and i found one which solved the problem, if anyone is having the same issue then download external keyboard helper, ever since i got this app i have had no problems, i have seen a few threads so i thought this would hopefully help people out.
If you are looking for a keyboard and mouse combo, go out and get the Microsoft wedge touch and keyboard, there expensive yes, but they are so good, and get hold of the app, currently I'm using the demo version and it has solved the problem, but if anyone has tried the full can you let me know how good it is and whether it is worth forking out the few quid
For audio i sue the Logitech Bluetooth audio hub, so i can use my half decent creative t40's wirelessly both on my nexus 7 my one x and with my desktop, even with the 3 Bluetooth devices connected to my nexus 7 i still have not encountered any other issue with bandwidth or lagging anymore.
i hope this helps some people out there that were experiencing the same problem that i was if anyone needs any help with the Bluetooth problem on JB then let me know and ill help out to the best of my abilities

How well is the microsoft mobile keyboard optimized for Android?
i got the helper pro, it helped alot but still have the issue of when both bt keyboard and bt mouse are connected the browser freezes, restarts.
i have tried mouse and keyboard individually and are 100% perfect on there on.
i still get aaaaaa but rarely with KHP and both bt Kb/mouse connected.
tried usb keyboard with otg cable and bt mouse all was perfect
incidentally for those wanting to fix this it must be with n7/jb as the bt mouse and bt KB work perfect on my htc one x when used in the same configuration as we have the problem on the n7/jb
Spot on!

Just my 2 cents, but I have a few devices that pair and never connect. I have an iHome Bluetooth keyboard that works perfectly. but a USB game controller that doesn't. I can pair it with my Milestone phone, but it doesn't do anything.
Fact of the matter is, some things work and some things don't.
I know this isn't exactly helpful. There is also a list of "Known functional devices"... but some things on that list don't work for my NC either.

Poor quality control on the manufacture's part. I went through four BT keyboard/cases for my 10 inch tablet before I got one that works.
The NC doesn't have the strongest Bluetooth radio as that was not intended to be used when the device was first released.
I too have had mixed experiences with different devices.

Just got my pixel 5. When connecting to the car via Bluetooth it's not coming up in the car display what track it is and I'm unable to skip to next track using steering wheel controls. Worked perfectly fine on my Mate 20 pro. Any ideas please? It's driving me mad.
Have yours all connected correctly those that are trying it in cars? This is a deal breaker for me so if not a simple fix it's going back.
Same thing happened here, using Spotify. Weirdly it works on my Pixel 2 XL but not on my Pixel 5.
I've reached out to Google to try find out why. Glad it's not just mine at least.
I have just come across this thread before I posted my own. thank God I'm not the only one who is annoyed as I started to think I was going crazy.
This is an absolute deal breaker for me as well. OP what have you done in the meantime? Have you found a workaround? I have even tried downloading 3rd party bluetooth "manager" apps from the play store but had no luck.
Skip, restart, steering wheel functions don't work and options are greyed out on cars infotainment touch screen.
Didn't have this issue on Pixel 2 Android 10.
Yes i found a work around today after reading through many other forums about other phones.
Basically enable developer mode and then change the AVRCP Bluetooth version to 1.3. Turn off Bluetooth then back on again and hopefully yours will work like mine.
I'm not sure what this does or the disadvantage to doing this but I've found connection better this way also. Let me know how you get in.
You can thank android 11 for that.
I think that what is happening here is that some apps haven't yet caught up with changes and advances in the underlying subsystems in Android 11. One that has is VLC. It is working perfectly for me. (I've tried others that didn't so I'm sure this isn't a bug per se)
It's a little disappointing that more effort wasn't put into maintaining backwards compatibility. However, that can often be very difficult, and sometimes impossible, to achieve.
Personally, I don't think that reaching out to Google about this will do any good.

Thank you for this info. I'm not sure it's necessary, but I'd also recommend after changing this setting, reboot your phone and delete and re-pair the phone to your radio.
