Who has all tried the new SixAxis app out for the Droidx2 and what are your experiences?
I can connect just fine, I've noticed the dpad works for scrolling through suggestions in the market, but i haven't found any emulators that will work.
I couldn't get it working either and haven't been able to download the compatibility checker. Its not in our market as our device seems to be listed as incompatible so I emailed the Dev last night and asked if he knew anything about it.
Ill post when I hear back from him.

it is in our market i have it. As the OP said, it connects just fine but I cant get emulators to work either. I am having an email conversation with their support (they are VERY quick in giving help). I'll post up what to do and how to do it once I get it resolved.
Its in your market?? Do you have the updated market? Its not available for download in mine and it wont let me do it remote on my PC as it says incompatible. I'd post a screenshot but I'm not at home.
Very weird...
Edit; are you on GB? Might be why I don't see it? I'm on prerooted gb

yea I'm on p3droids pre-rooted stock gb with an updated market and both the app and compatibility checker were in there. The compatibly checker worked for me and everything so I bought the full version.

Anyone know what the **** is going on? Not only can I not get this app, but it also says I am incompatible with Quick Pic, and Wifi Analyzer. I had Wifi Analyzer working fine on 2.2.2... I don't understand why I can't get these apps, is there something screwed up on my 2.3.3 install? I completely wiped the phone and SBF'ed and erased everything before upgrading. I've spent the past 3 days getting my phone looking how I want so at this point I REALLY don't wanna reSBF/install. Is there anything I can try? I have a feeling more important apps are gonna pop up as being incompatible the more I look for stuff I need.
Not to sidetrack this thread too much, I still haven't gotten an e-mail back from the sixaxis devs. I absolutely must have this.

changing my lcd density back to 240 fixed it!
That said sixaxis still doesn't work on my phone. Prerooted GB, it gets to where I can have the app connect to my PS3 controller, and it says controller 1 connected, but it will not respond to anything. Sixaxis is enabled as my input device as well. Went in to FPse and check to see if it would map my buttons to the hardware buttons and it wouldn't respond. I believe GB also will no longer work with the wii remote like it did in froyo, so maybe it is a similar problem.
Really hoping the dev gets this working for us. If anyone gets an email back from them pls let us know.
Has anyone tried this on a rom other than stock pre rooted gb?
i haven't heard back yet but I will send them the link to this thread so they can see other X2 users are having problems.
I'm having the same problem. I've established the blue tooth connection. I've successfully seen response within text message fields, but none of the emulators recognize the input.
I also sent an e-mail to tech support - I haven't heard from them in days. I'm running Nitro's Eclipse 0.2.1
Hi all,
I'm the dev of the Sixaxis Controller app. As was suggested earlier, I've been pretty swamped with emails up until now. I just wanted to let you know that I am looking into this issue, and would appreciate some testers to help determine what's going wrong here.
First of all, if anyone is able to get hold of a Wii Remote, I'd really appreciate you trying that out in emulators using the Wiimote Controller app. If the Wiimote Controller app is fine, it's probably something silly I'm doing, otherwise I suspect it is something in the stock roms for the X2.
Which brings me to the second question; can everyone let me know which rom you are running.
Thanks heaps, and I'm sorry this issue has taken me so long to get to!
I updated my review for your app to 4 stars simply because of this post. Thank you!
I CANNOT get ahold of a wii mote to try out
I am running Pre-Rooted Gingerbread (no other changes besides having root apps)
PM me if you need a tester or have any questions. Id like to help anyway i can
I have a Wii-mote, so I did a bit of testing..
The Emulators I tried are Fpse, N64oid, and Snes9x EX. The Wii controller software I used was "Wiimote Controller" by CCP [email protected]
So firstly I connected my Wii controller to my X2 using the wiimote software, it discovers my Wii controller without problem, and proceeds to report every button press in its list, showing it is functioning. Wiimote is enabled as input device. I tried Fpse, N64oid, and Snes9x EX, by going in to their input options and trying to bind my wii controller inputs with their hardware mapping options. All emulators were non-responsive in detecting my wiimote buttons as hardware inputs.
Interestingly enough, the built in Wiimote software provided in Snes9x EX would connect to my controller AND receive all of its inputs correctly, allowing me to play any of it's games with the Wii controller.
Now, before I switched to my current (I believe P3, the most popular ROM on this subforum) Pre-rooted GB 2.3.3, my wii controller was able to be read as hardware inputs on all emulators I tried. I was using Froyo 2.2.2 and had no problems using the Wii controller. I would be interested to see if anyone still running 2.2.2 can use this sixaxis software without any problems.
So it seems that the problem lies in our 2.3.3 not being able to read our bluetooth connections as hardware input devices, probably due to its updated bluetooth system files. This makes me wonder how Snes9x's built in Wii software gets it to work, regardless. I wonder if ALL 2.3.3 phones have this same problem? I know 2.3.4 has an even newer version of the bluetooth software and wonder if this fixes our problem?
If you (Sir Earl) have any additional things for me to try, let me know.
That confirms my suspicion that Motorola botched something in the 2.3.3 version. I don't believe it has anything to do with bluetooth, but rather they have somehow stopped IME's from working outside of the normal OS menus. The reason Snes9x EX is able to work is because it isn't using an IME.
On a hunch, can I get someone to try installing a different home screen app, such as ADW.Launcher or LauncherPro, then trying the Sixaxis app again. I suspect something in MotoBlur is trapping the input.

I was using LauncherPro Plus during my testing.
Hmmm... It must go deeper into the kernel then. I'll see if I can find the source code and try to find some answers or a workaround.
In the meantime, it would be good to get some confirmation from others that it works with 2.2.2, but not the 2.3.3 update.
Can someone try going to Sixaxis Controllers Preferences->Input Mappings->1st Controller mappings and setting the Up button to the 'SEARCH' key (be sure to disconnect and reconnect the controller for the changes to take effect). Next, make sure your Sixaxis is connected and set as the current input method. Run FPse and go to Settings->Input->Hardware keys, then tap UP, followed by pressing the search button on your phone. If it accepts the button and says something like 'Value: 84', then try running a game, and testing whether the up button on the controller is responsive in game. Also try pressing the search button on your phone to see if that is responsive. Make sure you try this with a game where the up button would produce a noticeable result!
Report back your results!
Thanks!
Earl
Is it showing up for anyone else? I'm gonna try to transfer from my evo 3d and see if it works, but wanted to see if maybe it was a build.prop issue, or something else.
Edit: nope, transferred from my phone, it installed fine, but when I open it, it says hbogo is not supported on this device and has nothing but a close button.
Edit update: this is weird. If you open the app, get the not compatible screen, but instead of hitting close just switch to another app using ICS built in task manager, then switch back to hbogo, it'll work! You may have to switch back and forth a few times, but it will eventually work. Strange!
Thanks for the workaround!
Going in from multi tasking menu works great.
Here's how it works on my touchpad:
Start HBOGo app. When not supported message comes up hit multitasking button and switch to another app. From there hit home button, then multitask and switch back to HBOGo. Not supported message is still up. Don't do anything for about 5, 7 seconds. Message disappears and app starts working on its own.
How can I get the APK to install, if marketplace doesn't show it for my touchpad?

Thanks. The workaround is adequate. (version 1.41734)
I've been able to view the entire Game of Thrones, both seasons. By chance is there a download link fot Max Go?

Maybe this isn't so important, but for me it is, this was one of my favorite games, and I recently updated my wt19i to ICS, I have it rooted and all, and I can't play this game anymore, it loads and then i press play button but it doesn't do anything, even i press other buttons and nothing happens, only i can exit and that's it. Anyone has this problem? Maybe you can install the game and tell me if i'm the only one with this problem....
You should aware that not all android games are optimized for ics yet.
My suggestions try grab the apk from google, if that ain't working too, then go figure

Hey folks, have this game on my arc s & it works fine. However, on my Sony S the accelerometer seems disorientated. Holding the tablet in landscape mode as you would expect to use it, it always steers to the right (its almost like it wants you to hold it in portrait to play it) Ive tried recalibrating both horizontal & vertical in the settings, but short of slightly altering it, its completely unplayable :-(
This also happens in the game 'little robots', but the 3d maze works as expected?!?!
Am i missing something or does somethin need changing?
thanks in advance
Its the same with mine. Cant play the game due to this issue. Hope someone can give us a solution coz gtfree seems kinda fun.

Mine is working as well. I just redownloaded it. And its running fine. I would try redownloading. Are you using the sd swap by chance?

I just played it for 45 minutes and it runs fine for me. I do use init.d sdswap with a 64GB exFAT card.
I'm on stock deodexed and runs fine
