[Q] Help using xperia sp as a Ps3 controller - Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all! I found that a developer here at xda developed blueputdroid some years ago, but it seems that is incompatible with the stock rooted .205.
I want to use the phone as a ps3 controller, not only pair it to play games on android phone, but I searched and didn't found a method to get any app working.
I have another problem, I tried pairing via bluetooth on the ps3's menu, but the console doesn't found my phone, and I ensured that the phone was visible.
The question is, someone knows any method to use the phone as a gamepad? And a way to be detected by the console via bluetooth or wifi? Thanks!!

Yes, it has an option, but is for using the sixaxis as a gamepad.
What I wan't do is the opposite, use the phone as a gamepad.
Thanks for your response.

Winamp-remote on Nexus1

I'm trying to use the app (winamp remote) to listen my music library on my Nexus. Went to the market and downloaded and installed on the phone. did go also to get the server application and installed on my pc. opened port 1950 on my rooter. I'm able to establish a connection from my phone to the pc over the net. I see (over remote access on another pc) the player on the pc starting. when i press play in my Phone - so there is a connection established. The only thing i'm not able to see working is the sound on my phone. Can anyone point me in the righ direction? or give a good alternative to use with my pc software. Thanks in advance

[Q] Working bluetooth gamepad for TAB

Hi has anyone found a working Bluetooth gamepad for the TAB?
I know that the Zeemote works (I have one), but its not quite the gaming experience that Im looking for, Im looking for a gamepad for playing genesis/snes/nes etc emultors and for that the one hand zeemote does not really work.
I was on the hunt for something like this too to play emu games. The only thing I could find was the MSI BGP100 which doesn't appear to exist any longer, nor would it work all that well (IMO) with the SGT since it was designed for phones back in the day.
Ive got the msi bgp100 and have the app of the market and donated for full version and it works perfectly with snesoid, nesoid, psxdroid and genoid.
They are hard to find nowadays though lol.

Wuh wuh what? When did the wiimotes all of the sudden started working! I'm gonna have to charge one up and find this out for myself.
What app did you install to get your wiimote working?
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
get the wiimote and the classic controller for wiimote to play like a bluetooth gamepad, also can be used to have two player one with the wiimote and the other one with the classic controller, both working

Which app did you install from the market if any to setup and pair the wiimote? I installed wiimotecontroller from the market but when i use the init function it never finds my wiimote. I also tried to pair it with using wireless settings and it finds my wiimote but always asks for a pass or pin? Just in case you were wondering, my bluetooth setting was on.

I have both wiimoteController and other one that is excellent and more easy to use than wiimoteController that is called RWiimote (was removed from the market don't know why)
I will test it and come back to post result and if successful I will post the .apk

Awesome. Looking forward to getting this to work for my emulators.
Edit: Found Rwiimote on the market and tried it out. Doesnt work for me. Tells me my device is not supported when i try to pair the controller.

As with the SGS the Wii remote does not work with the SGT with the original firmware. You can get the Wii Remote working on the SGS with Cyanogen CFW.
Is there a firmware build etc that would support the wiimote?
Is it just that Cyanogen has added a bluetooth profile that the SGS/T devices don't have? Do you know what that would be? It might be something as simple as modifying the bluez config files on the device. If I get a chance I'll mess with it tonight.

Tell us what you find! would be appriciated
I have thought of the next best thing: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.45604
Im thinking of ordering one of those and customizing it to only contain the buttons that are needed for gaming. Since the TAB does have bluetooth profiles for BT-keyboards and mice. (My DiNovo mini works perfectly, but its a little bit too expensive to rip to atoms)

Did you test this?
Couldn't wrestle the wiimotes away from the kids, but I'll post up when I do have the opportunity.

I got a wiimote today, tellme what to do. And I will test it.
I'm not sure that this issue is due to anything more then the Tab being hard coded to require a PIN and not being able to skip it...
When I try using WiiController (demo) it stops trying to search immediately, and I don't have Root so the RWiimote fails as well
when I go into Bluetooth settings and search I can see the wii-mote, I can connect to it however it is prompting me for a PIN which the Wii-mote doesn't support. There is no way around this pin code request so my connection fails everytime
If the Bluetooth software is designed to not allow connections without a PIN then I don't see how it can work with any software unless its designed to bypass the PIN requirement?
or I may just be missing something
Sorry to bring this one back to life again, but did anyone get the a wiimote working with the tab successfully?
I'm having the same problem Dredly, it just asks for the pin and you can't continue.

SIXAXIS PS3 Controller w/ NESOID/SNESOID

Got my Nexus 7, rooted, and setup the Sixaxis app with my PS3 controller. It works great with epsxe, but when I try to use the controller with NESOID or SNESOID, I can't seem to figure out the mapping issue.
Is anyone successfully using a PS3 Sixaxis controller with their Nexus 7 and NESOID/SNESOID? I'd love to know how you got the keys mapped properly.
Try using RetroArch, it's a whole bunch of emulators built into one. I don't have time to test out my controller right now, will probably do that tomorrow at lunch.

Hit your settings button, Settings> Other Settings, and make sure under "User Settings" that "Use input method" is checked in the individual emulator (like NESoid).
Once it is you can map it under Input Settings> Key Mappings by just pressing the buttons. Make sure in the Sixaxis app you have hit the "Change IME" button and set it to the Sixaxis controller. It works perfectly for me on NESoid, SNESoid, and GENsoid across all my devices.
Thanks, that worked. What was throwing me off is that when you go to map the keys, it says <unknown> instead of the key. Still worked, though. Rocking.

Thanks for the tip. I had set this fine once, but after data wiping I forgot how to set up again. Back to normal...
ok im having a little trouble with six axis and some emulators here perhaps you guys can help me. ive been able to map most of them pretty well but i am having a hard time with gbcoid and snesoid not mapping my start and sometimes select buttons correctly. i can get everything else to work but when i press the two center ones nothing happens. I end up having to touch the screen to use these and that can be a hassle. Any suggestions on how to map it so i can get full function out of this controller?
hi guys..
ps3 controller must be %100 orginal..? or can we use the fake\clone (compatible with ps3 game console) ps3 controller which cheaper than orginal..
This is the one I use, not official. Works like a charm.

[Q] Xperia Z1 + dualshock 3

Hey all. I have a question about dualshock 3 wireless connection with my Xperia Z1. Until i've updated my Z1 up to android 4.3 it works great, but it doesn't at this moment. I've tried to wipe all data on my phone and reflash new FW, but it still doesn't works.
My Z1 was italian. I've flashed it to russian 290 via flashtool. Then wiped it and reflashed Central Eu 290. But it still can't connect via bluetooth.
XZ1 tells me to disconnect cable from it, so it will connect wirelessly. But it doesn't
Would be great if you can assist me to solve this problem. Thanks!

Not sure if you have or not but try the SixAxiscontroller app on the play store, I've never tried the native controller app but i know that the sixaxis one works really well, it allows you to map controls to the screen for games that don't support pads.
Give it a whirl or at the very least the compatibility app.

Sixaxis controller not connecting

So, I did everything with the pairing tool, and it worked the first time.
Played a bunch of games with it.
Today I got my mhl to hdmi, and when trying to connect the ps3 controller to play games on the TV, the app won't detect my phone.
It just says looking for controllers and never finds it.
I looked at the pairing tool again, and the phone Bluetooth address is still the master.
Any tips?
TIA

Well, since the thread where I found the answer to my problem is not specific to the sixaxis app,I am posting the link here for anyone who is havingthe same problem and can't find it.
Make sure to thank XevoX for his help.
