so im thinking about buying this msi bluetooth gamepad for my g1 to make my emulation experience a little less cramped.
my problem is that i see no refrence to the use of this game pad on the g1 on this forum or on google.
Any ideas if this gamepad will be "plug and play" or "plug and pray"?
anyone have an idea?
Take a closer look at the specs. Android is not listed as a supported OS at this time.
Ive always wondered when someone would build a blutooth controller for phones
I wonder how hard it would be to get this working in android
it would really make the G1 that much better
I've successfully paired a Wiimote with the G1 but the system doesn't recognize any input from the Wiimote. hcidump -X shows you that the phone is receiving data but I don't think the phone knows what to do with it, yet . I'm thinking about digging a bit further and getting this working.
this is what i am afraid of. i should just get the controller and try to mess around untill i, or sombody else figures out what to do. i could be something as simple as writing a small app to reroute these lost commands to a keystroke or something.
or could be something more massive and complex than i imagine
probably just making an app..... it worked for the bt watches
That sounds doable, except the last program writing I did was with pascal in high school.
I got the android stuff started in eclipse but I'm lost after staring a new project. I should just leave this to a professional.
Anyone want to help?
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.
Hi!
This might sounds silly but do you guys know if anyone is working on something like this for android?

An app that makes your phone to a small guitar amp?
The iphone version has been out for a while but i cant find any info on a version for android..
The company behind iRig have been speaking about a android version but i dont think they even have started working on one yet.
It would be a really nice application! To allways be ready to record without setting up the computor and stuff like that ya know, or to just sit in the sofa with earplugs and play some sweet solos and riffs without having your gf whine about the loud music..
Found this dude trying to make something close. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sz-9mxWa2VA
Just checking if anyone knows anything?
Best regards and thx for all the awsomeness!

This would be awesome, I would definitely buy it. It's like a Line 6 pod but much cheaper.
I hope they're working on an android version. Android needs better quality apps.
Also, it's more of a multi-effect pedal than an amp. Just letting you know
I actually sent then a message on youtube to see if they were working on one. This is what I got.
This is the Mac/PC version. If you look at our AmpliTube iRig playlist you'll find the iPhone version. We're currently looking at the platform but do not have any versions for Android.

Yeah, multi-effect pedal.
Imageing all the fine stuff you could do with it!
You could use it as an effect to plug in to your amp. (maby quite alot of effects, if you can make your own sounds. And with new developing you never have to buy a new effect-pedal again.. ).
A strummer for electric guitar in the studio/rehearsal place.
Play with earplugs on the sofa.
and so on...
I'll buy!!
it needs dedicated hardware don't forget (about 10 seconds in on the video)
your phone only has one 3.5mm jack plug...and you need to plug a guitar into it and an amp into it too.
also, what happens if you've got your amp turned up to 11 and then you get a phone call?

You'd have to speak through your guitar peter frampton style
These are the components you need...

These are the components you need. I've successfully plugged my guitar into my nokia and HTC EVO using this method. Now, for some software that does something cool with the input. Let me know how it works for you.

I've bookmarked that link
I am amazed that this can be done on the iPhone but not on Android.
There is another program called Ghettoamp on the market, though the devloper admits that there is still latency (he records, then processes the sound input). 20ms I think.

Why can't it be done for android? This app is really cool.

It should be possible...
Android phones definitely have the processing power to do this. The only real problem is you're input and outputs on your phone, there's really only one... the 3.5 mm jack...
But there's maybe a way around this. And I'm not an engineer or developer or genius of any kind I'm just saying what I think should be at least possible... Everyone knows AD2P Bluetooth right? You could get you're input through it.
You use the microphone of a bluetooth headset, but instead of the microphone, you get your input from you're amp/guitar/whatever... could it be as simple as soldering a headphone jack to the PCB connections on a bluetooth headset? Dunno but let's asume it's possible.
Then you connect your phone to the headset, and you've got input... Great.
The problem now is that I don't know what android does when it has a bluetooth headset AND a normal set of earphones... Does it play from both, does it by default choose, I don't know... Say you still get output from the headphones, you could easily get the output to any speakers, seems rather pointless to use the phone's loudspeaker... This part from bluetooth input to audio jack output will maybe need a modified audio driver or something...
Once you've got input into the phone and output out of the phone, you would like to have some effects and/or amplification right? That's the point isn't it? I know nothing about programming such things but maybe a few developers who do will stumble onto this thread and share their expertise...
Once again it should be possible, but for just anyone to do this it'll be very challenging, more likely and hopefully companies like Gibson or Marshall or Ibanez (their Japanese, and this seems like a Japanese thing to do) for instance will see the need for something like this, and get working on it... If they make something like that and it works well, it'll make a LOT of money... For instance after you've bought this device, they could SELL effects, to be downloaded on a sort of 'plugin-basis'. And once one company does it, all will have some variant of the concept. I know I'd buy this...
Edit: Read about the apparent latency issue that Android has... So I don't know if it's that possible just yet, maybe ICS has bettered this flaw in previous Android versions, one can only hope...
Sorry for refreshing this thread, but I'm curious if there is such app for android available right now?

You are thinking much too complicated.
The headphone jack of phones contains another pin for the microphone. A small jumper cable can be used that allows the connection of a guitar and headphones. Check out Amplitube iRig for an example.
(this type of jack is used so you can plug in a headset with microphone)
Bluetooth or something would be nice... but the latency wouldn't be, and that is exactly the problem.. Android has too much latency,
Look:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=3434
Android is not capable of this because the way it handles audio is completely wrong. More recent devices have less latency but still too much. The problem lies very deep. It is a problem for game developers too. Please star this issue if you want Google to do something about it!
Send with my telegraph
How about USB OTG connected to a Rocksmith USB connection?...

The Irig will work fine for this you dont need bluetooth aor usb adding yet another layer of BS to the audio streams round trip. however now that JB is out latancy is stitting around 10-12ms on adevice such as the galaxy nexus wich is completely usable (1ms of latancy = 1foot from your amp) so 12ms would be like playing 12 feet from your amp,
If you cant play like this then on stage will never work for you.
As a side note usb audio is apparently supported in JB as well now
There are now a couple of apps on Android that at least have a range of guitar effects. Delay Effects Plus (via headphone type cable) and usbEffects (USB OTG) both have an option to use Native Audio, so if you have the Galaxy Nexus running JB the latency is quite reasonable (50-70 mSec). If you have a modded ROM you may get lower latency without Native Audio option as they both read the buffer size from the OS. Of course for everyone else the latency is still an issue and varies from device to device. So to those that said they would buy .... please do!
This very issue has put me on the fence on what kind of tablet I buy. Cannot decide between note, and Ipad 3. The accessories and ItunesU has been one of the biggest attractions for me.
Litlle heads up: in their latest newsletter IK Multimedia (of Amplitube) post a few job openings, one of them being "Android App Developer"!
So they are at least working on something..

Do you got new update for futur multi effect on android
I am hoping some of you fellow tablet owners out there could help me out. ^-^
I'm looking to buy a keyboard and mouse for my Ice Cream Sammiched tablet, but I just want to be sure I don't waste my money. I plan on using them for my PC as well so I won't be buying Android specific accessories.
I have a couple items in mind already, but I'm open to anything that you guys personally recommend as long as it works.
Could anyone confirm if the Apple Magic Mouse and Bluetooth wireless keyboard work?
I could probably pull off building a kernel if the repo is open just to try some drivers that I've seen around...but honestly I haven't looked at any of that stuff for the Tab 10.1.
If the Magic Mouse is a no go then I was looking at this Logitech mouse.
And if anyone has any alternative suggestions to the Apple keyboard that work with ICS I'm also open to those.
If it's not too much to ask I'm also interested in knowing what doesn't work on mice and keyboards.
Thanks!
I own a 5 inch chinese android phone. 1080p screen etc. Its a pretty mediocre phone so isn't in use. Basically i wanted to either find a case like this: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Free...-with-Stand-Cover-Case-for-7-9/958953702.html ..something that will allow me to turn it into a mini laptop/umpc...OR... does anyone have suggestions on making a housing? I will be disasembling it if i cant find a case and costom building....
My idea was to use a nintendo ds housing and a mini bluetooth keyboard..

Please dont ask why I would want to do this, its basically just because i can! I am currently porting linux to the device so should be a worthy little UMPC
You know, make something like the Pandora console without the gaming functionality...
Cheers
