[Q] [q] aosp bluetooth stack roms with mhl support? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ive search high and low on xda developers to find a rom with a aosp bluetooth stack and mhl cable support. My plan is to use the Sixaxis Controller app with the mhl cable but so far ive only been able to find roms that do only one of those functions.
Also is there anyway to install a new bluetooth stack and the Original XXKG firmwares.
Would appreciate any help.
Device: Samsung Galaxy S2, Running MIUI.

That's something many gamers wish... but after a few months without any luck I think the only way is to buy a specific gamepad like phonejoy, etc. as long as CM (and MIUI consequently) doesn't support mhl yet. And maybe never...
The cool thing could be something like you are talking: someone making a stock rom but with aosp bluetooth drivers instead of samsung ones
Edit: I write from the complete ignorance, and don't know if it's easy to do or even possible. Please excuse me if i'm saying something stupid

I too am wondering
If one could just copy the AOSP bluetooth over the stock roms we would have the best of both worlds

The bluetooth stack in Cyanogenmod 7 works with sixaxis. I used my ps3 controller to play my emulated games.
Although I do perfer non-aosp, as the kernel/rom selection is better and the touchwiz apps are better (IMO) . I cant live without fm radio.
If any devs could add find a way to get the aosp bluetooth stack on a non aosp rom, we would all be very grateful.

I want to bump/1 up this thread
I am using lite'ning rom 6.1 and I really love this rom, but at the same time I want to be able to use my ps3 controller so thumbs up for anyone who can do this, even information on how to or why it's not currently done would be nice, my brother knows a bit about programming if we knew where to look maybe we could try to do it ourselves. I really want to see this done. I know it's possible somehow!

[Q] Is there a ROM that supports MHL out and bluetooth (wiimote))

I have a rooted Evo 3d, and I want to play games with my wiimote and watch on my TV.
Sense is doing the MHL out just fine, but doesn't support pairing up with bluetooth devices. http://androidforums.com/htc-evo-3d/379006-wii-remote-evo-3d.html
I did find this, but it looks like it never got launched... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OS4h1Z2nKHw
So I'm wondering if there is another ROM out there that would...
From what I understand I need an ASOP rom.
From my research, it looks like CM7 doesn't support MHL out. http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/36885-cm7-alpha3-known-issues/
Is there something I'm missing? Does anyone know of a work around?
Would love to know this as well.

[Q] apple trackpad support for cm9?

Is there any way to create a flash able zip that could add support for the apple magic track pad to the pre alpha build of cm9? I know it is supported in some custom roms but hc 3.2 touchwiz did not have support and neither does cm9? So is there any way to add support or should I just wait for an official build of cm9?
Any help is greatly appreciated
Clarification:
Also when connecting to the track pad it pairs perfectly and my tab even recognizes it as the apple magic trackpad, but my guess is do to lack of support the pointer does not appear and the trackpad is quite useless. I bought this back when I first got my tab and I wasn't able to locally purchase any bt mouse's because my local tech shops are quite bad at having things in stock. So I'm kinda stuck with the trackpad and don't want it to become an expensive paperweight.
Once again thanks in advance for any help
I don't have a galaxy, but I'm interested in the outcome of this. I wonder if there is some kind of generic magic trackpad support that can be compiled in? On devices like the nexus, surely they didn't spend a lot of time coding in the trackpad just for that device - surely they're leveraging a generic driver?

[Q] Optimus 2X p990 Few questions

Hello, I'm new here and this is my first thread so if it's not in the right place i apologize...
Firstly, I know nothing about developing and nothing about what a kernel does or anything like this, I just know how to flash things and read tutorials haha
Few questions for my LG p990 - 3 UK
I've looked around and haven't found anything about tethering that helps me, I'm wondering if there's a way of tethering with out being charged for this? I've got completely unlimited internet for my phone but i will get charged if i tether, Is there anyway to bypass this and use my 3G internet on a laptop?
Also about xbmc, I've used xbmc since the original xbox and actually still use my old xbmc xbox on a daily basis but using it for HD films obviously doesn't work, Now xbmc on the optimus is fairly stable but i unerstand that no one's got the tegra2 optimized to work with HD unless it's on the original ROM, Will this change soon or am i going to have to upgrade my phone (Running CM7 and love it and would hate to go back to standard ROM)
And... I've tried other kernels and they just don't work well with CM7 if atall! but i would like to be able to overclock my phone, It's powerful enough but more power is never a bad thing. Is there any very stable released kernels and ROMS that will allow me to overclock and be awesome?!
And the last thing... I read somewhere that S2 korean keyboard is apparently almost as good as the iphones and some mentioned backporting it to work on any android phone? First thing would it be in english? and would it be better than the jellybean keyboard i've got installed at the minute (tried every keyboard on the android market and this one beats them all!)
Thank you, And please go easy on me for being a pain... I'm only 19 and i'm more of a graphic designer and nowhere near a developer.

i717 4.2.2 bluetooth keyboard rom?

can anyone tell me of a 4.2.2 rom for the i717 that is reasonably stable and has bluetooth keyboard support? I haven't tried a rom yet that allows me to pair and then use my bluetooth keyboard (pairing goes well but then it never connects once it's paired). i've tried a few bluetooth keyboards as well from apple and motorolla (both of which work with 4.1.2 on the same hardware).
help?
Does nobody here care about keyboard support? If so, i'll be happy to stfu and be happy with 4.1 with working bluetooth, but if anyone has any information as to the status of bluetooth keyboard support, i'd be particularly thankful to hear it.
I have a clamshell keyboard I can try with slimbean I'm running, but honestly I don't think anyone really uses a keyboard with their phone. I'll try in the morning and get back to you.

Have you gotten a BT Mouse to work in any 4.2.2 ROM? That's what I'm interested in. I haven't used any 4.2.2 ROM yet that has working BT Mouse/Keyboard. They both use the HID (Human Interface Device) BT profile, which in general seems borked in 4.2.2 ROMs.
I have not gotten a bluetooth mouse to work either up to about a month ago (I haven't tried any new roms lately). if anyone would be so awesome as to give us an update with a modern rom build (sometime in the past couple weeks) as to the status of HID support (keyboards and mice) I would be particularly grateful.
Thanks!

sadly I report as of cm nightly 5/2 bluetooth hid support, including support for keyboards and mice doesn't work and fails identically to the way it fails on every other 4.2.2 rom i've tried on the i717... very disappointing that I can either use an old rom and have my keyboard work which i use every day for email and instant messaging, or I can use a new rom which generally works great but has no support for something that makes my life easy every day... sadly, I'm stuck on 4.1.2 slimbean for now.
Once again I've gone testing 4.2 roms and once again I'm surprised and appalled about the lack of bluetooth HID keyboard / mouse support in all of the 4.2 roms i've tested. I'm up to 5 different roms now that have exactly the same problem of seeming to pair but then fail to connect once paired. on other devices, even on straight cyanogenmod the bluetooth keyboard functionality works flawlessly. I have an original galaxy tab (p1000) running an alpha 4.2 build with flawless bluetooth support and that rom seems even more fast and stable than those i've found for the i717 which is leaps and bounds better (double the memory, almost tripple the cpu power). something is clearly amiss.
As it has yet again been another month, I again ask the development and tester community here if anyone has seen a rom with working bluetooth support. anybody? Buller? buller? J/K.
Use TW JB based Roms.
CM10.1 doesn't have bluetooth support worked out yet, so any roms based on CM will not have BT working.
I am not too sure about other roms, but I believe it will be similar stories.

for the benefit of the community, and not to insult the kind efforts of shayneflashindaily, but it didn't work. I'm still looking for a 4.2 rom with working bluetooth keyboard support, or at this point maybe a 4.3 rom with working bluetooth keyboard uspport. *frustrated sigh*

I know, that was my point. That it will take a long time. Heck its been about what? 8 months since 4.2 Roms came out (that broke BT keyboard use)...

If you want everything working, like bluetooth keyboard support, you gotta go back to the stable version, like 4.1.2. You can't keep asking about 4.2 or 4.3 (which isn't even ready).
BT is a known issue with 4.2, and I am sure the developers are working to get it fixed. You won't have to ask for it. And when 4.3 is finally out, which might be months away from now, I am expecting more problems than 4.2 initially.
You can ask and look all you want, but the simple answer is already in front of you. USE 4.1.2.
What about an otg cable and a wireless keyboard?

That could work but I already have a BT keyboard that I really like already and I don't know where I can get a full sized keyboard that is small enough to fit in my cargo pants pocket. Then again, I suppose in a pinch I could buy a small apple USB keyboard and an otg cable but the total on that would be in the $70 range and would preclude me from simultaneously using my mhl to HDMI adapter.

I really am sorry for beating a seemingly dead horse like a matching band drummer but in the hopes of keeping hope alive I once again reach out to the community to see if anyone has come across a4.2 or 4.3 ROM with working Bluetooth keyboard support?
Thank you!

FWIW I am experiencing the same problem with my SGH-t989. No keyboards, no videogame controllers. I just hate that cm abandoned 4.1.2 development. Although they keyboard works, it has bugs that 10.1 does not have.
Still looking for a ROM with android 4.2+ that has working Bluetooth keyboard support.
None of the many 4.2 or 4.3 builds ive tested has working Bluetooth keyboard which is a requirement for me as I use my note to constantly take class notes in Evernote and do screenplay writing now and then as well.
Perhaps one of the new experemental 4.4 builds?

[Question] Atrix as Mediastation with Media-Dock?

Hi Guys,
as I'm thinking of getting a new phone sooner or later, I was thinking how to use my Atrix and my Multimedia-Dock later on.
I never used the Lapdock mode or HDMI mirroring, but I bought the multimedia dock because it was really cheap and I can use my Atrix as a digital clock also.
So please forgive me if I'm asking questions that only work with the lapdock mode
My idea is:
I want to use the Atrix as a media-station for music (on storage and streaming).
As the multimedia dock as a 3,5mm line-out, I thought this might work. I'm on MIUI V5 with JB right now and just plugging in something in the 3,5mm line-out won't let me listen to any music, as I guess this line-out only works in lapdock-mode, because it will get the audio signal from HDMI (?).
I want to know if this might work with any rom that supports lapdock, because for the functions I want, I don't need the newest Android with the latest features.
Another function that would be awesome is to pair the Atrix via Bluetooth with other devices so the Atrix can play music via BT from other devices. Is this possible, too?
Like: Music on new phone --> BT --> Atrix connected to speakers plays music.
If there are any threats like this already, I'm really sorry, but a quick search didn't give me any results
Thanks!
P.s.: Can I put USB-storage on the multimedia dock when the Atrix is in lapdock mdoe?
Indeed, you need to go back to gb or atrics to fully use the hd dock.
You can connect any pendrive to those usb, phone will mount them.
Not sure about bt. Guess is possible

I recently received back an Atrix that I purchased on behalf of a friend sometime ago. I also figured it could perhaps be of use at the mother-in-laws when my son is there. I have another account with xda though it has been so long since I used the forum to post that I could not remember my username! So I just clicked to log in via G+. Its been great seeing that such an old (at least in terms of android developement) device has still got some very good support and excellent contributers. Before my Nexus4 I had a Galaxy S and that got flashed regular from the great work that goes on here.
It didn't take much reading to work out that Atrics looked as if it would suit my needs best for some simple internet use and perhaps media viewing on the Bravia the phone will be hooked to. I am hoping I may also find an XBMC build that will be stable enough to enhance the system! So today I found the time to get the basic Atrics 2.0 up and running, One or two little bugs too work out but am sure they will have been covered already. Installed FlashFox browser to make sure flash works without any hassles and just completed a rom backup and upgrade of the kernel to 14-02-05. The difference is noticeable straight away Krystian, good work.
I'll try to keep up with my project and how it goes. How is your project working out muhski?
Thanks again to just about everyone within this forum who has posted, I narrowed initial problems down quickly due to the very useful guides and information
setup restrictions
So I set up everything up nicely using the atrics ROM. Due to the TV and setup at the mother in laws, using the stereo out on the dock was not viable. This forced me to roll back to Nottatrix4g for a quick fix of using the HDMI to pass sound as well as audio. As a result I have a nice portable setup which will reside at the mother in laws for my son to use and perhaps his grandad too. I kept the ROM install as slim as possible without removing any functionality that may be required if we take the system on holiday for example. I installed several addons in xbmc and went through each to check the ones that wouldn't work easily for example asking for an external player, (the ones that did work easily all diverted to mxplayer). I added both Firefox and dolphin for flash based browsing, a couple of the games he plays on my Nexus 4 and an emulator to play the games I still have from the NES. The emulator is tied into wiimote for an easier experience for him although I would have preferred a more manageable pad but since that's as good as free.
So the the real test will start tomorrow, my main concern would be the system recovering from any crashes but up to now with the exception of xbmc occasionally closing, I have only had one issue with Bluetooth and the mouse showing paired but not. I deleted the db and that resolved the issue which I was unable to replicate.
So my experience would be to tell you if a similar project was looked at, check your hardware and see how the audio can connect best. If you can only do audio with HDMI stay on 2.x.x ROM, if you can stereo from the dock into the TV by RCA's or an amplifier you can use atrics ROM or a 2.x.x based ROM. Other than this you shouldn't need to spend too long finding a good use to a redundant Atrix.
The xbmc version came from xbmcandroid as the official xbmc does no longer support tegra² chips. If your reading this regarding a newer phone then the official version may suit you better.
Thanks to everyone who has made this possible I will try and name everyone and their apps in a review of the system in the hands of the young and the old in a week or two!

Did you ever get around to making the list of applications used in your media center build?
Also, does the remote control work with it?
