[Q] Sixaxis Controller with TV out - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there.
This is my situation, I want to find a rom that has the generic bluetooth stack (like CM7 or Oxygen) so that I can pair my PS3 controller to my phone. In the same breath I want to stream my phone to my TV (using micro USB to MHL) so that I can play my SNES emulator on my TV.
At the moment I can find a few roms with the right bluetooth stack but none of them have tv out working.
Anyone else having any luck?

Have you tried it yourself? Criskelo is based on stock and has no mention of changes to the bluetooth stack. In other words, that won't help.
In answer to the OP, there is currently no way for you to achieve what you want. You can only have one or the other.
AOSP based rom for bluetooth (i.e. sixasis), stock based rom for TV-out.

there are none afaik.
For a dirty work around you could try CM7 with this app
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/mymobiler-for-android-presenting-android-screencast/
It should get you running on a pc monitor at least
Until CM7 gets tv out i think your outta luck sorry, this would be an awsome feature tho

Well at my my assumptions have now been confirmed and I'll be able to stop scouring the internet for a solution. Guess I'll just have to wait till CM7 gets it running.
Thanks for putting my mind to ease... at least for a little while.

Hi guys,
It's time for a new update...
Just checked the new version of "Sixaxis Controller". The SGS2 is now supported!
So now it works with a stock based ROM + TV Out! I tried it on a Criskelo ROM with the Siyah Kernel. It works fine!
To pair the controller with the SGS2, just follow the instructions listed here:
dancingpixelstudios. com/sixaxiscontroller/instructions.html
To activate the buttons of the Dualshock in FPse you should first disable the touchscreen buttons and set new hardware buttons. F.e. press "Start" hardware button while the optional field is on "DOWN", then press down (by the steering cross or the analog stick) the proceeding with the other buttons is the same..
here i've done a short video to proof the stuff.

[Q] CM6.1 bluetooth?

Just wondering if we could find a way to port the bluetooth from the latest i9000 CM6.1 rom (nightly build)? I would really love to get the ole Wiimote syncing up to our Vibrants and this might just be the trick
Heres a link http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/8139-gt-i9000-cm61-holy-crap-its-full-of-bugs-version-beta2/
I just try the CM6 and can tell you the wiimote work and even on the psx emulator using a wii classic add on working with it as well. But there were to many problem, sound don't work, volume + is volume -, and so on. but if they got it working someone could find a way I hope.

[Q] PlayStation Controller

Does anyone know if this App works for Stock Software or CM7 on our SGS2?
I read that it does not work on the Stock software, but the test app says it should work on my SGS2 running CM7. I dont have any of the controllers, so I need someone to confirm this!
According to this link http://www.dancingpixelstudios.com/sixaxiscontroller/about.html, it should work on CM7 because it use the correct protocol for BT.

Youtube video, vary cool!

reguarding the BT stack to make the dualshock 3 work on android, can it not be pulled from "somehwere" and inserted into our stock roms? Or is there more to it than just that? can someone please educate me as to what would have to be done to make dualshock controllers work on any rom?
I bought i ControlPad - works fine with stock BT drivers.
Swyped from SGS2.

[Q] sgs2 wiimote and mhl both working (on one rom)?

Hi All,
I searched for info on this and found a few old threads but the last replies were in August, and the threads only addressed half the issue, so I thought I would post a new thread.
The Problem: AOSP roms can connect to the wiimote no problem but they do not support MHL out. Samsung based roms support MHL out but cannot connect to a wiimote.
I would love to be able to use my sgs2 as a portable emulator setup
Is anyone working on any kind of solultion to this?
Will AOSP roms be able to output to hdmi at some point or is there a licensing issue i dont know about?
Does anyone know a workaround to get the wiimote to connect to a stock rom (by replacing the bluetooth stack or something)?
Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Was also wondering this same thing. I have also tried to find out if ICS will be pushed out to our phone anythime soon as this is rumored to fix this also.

The simple solution is ditch the wiimote and use a PS3 controller instead as https://market.android.com/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller works on stock Samsung ROMs.

Which Rom has full bluetooth HID support?

Been putting off installing a custom Rom on the SGS2 (UK) because it's been working fine for what I need, but now I'd like to use it as a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse on my Windows PC (without the need for a server app).
I've read about an app called Bluputdroid which will connect to a PC via bluetooth and be recognized as a HID keyboard and mouse but requires a coustom Rom with a specific bluetooth stack.
Which Rom should I try?
Thank you
only way i know to get around it is to use an AOSP rom, like cm7/cm9 or MIUI, i did the same thing to get my playstation sixaxis working hope this helps

As coffmad said, any AOSP ROM should work for what you're looking for, as they will utilize the generic Android bluetooth stack, instead of Samsung's.
That said, I know you said you don't want to install a server app, but have you considered looking at GMote? It works over wi-fi. There's a very thin app you install on the computer, and your phone connects to it over your network. This is what I use to utilize my phone as a remote for my computer.

FYI, SixAxis works on Samsung based ROMs, and has for quite some time. I think since October or so. I've got it working just fine, and I'm on stock XXKI3.

[Q] Wiimote with stock ICS, work or not ?

Hello,
i just want to ask if its possible to pair wiimote with stock ICS rom for SGSII, as in previous versions of roms this was unable due TouchWiz, what is mentioned in wiimote applications on Google play.
I tested it by myself and result is :
Phone itself detect Wii mote and display it as Nintendo RVL-CNT-01 with game controller icon, but when i try to pair device it asks for PIN which is empty, Wiimote doesnt need PIN when pairing with PC, its just Android problem that device withould PIN cannot be paired. There is probably no way to skip PIN enter dialog.
I also tried WiimoteController and RWiimote from Google play, none of them worked.
RWiimote detects controller but show same pairing dialog to enter PIN
WiimoteController doesnt detect controller at all
For example i tried my Logitech DiNovo Edge bluetooth keyboard and it worked well, device paired withould any problems.
Tested rom : stock I9100XXLPQ

Kudos for testing it yourself.
Probably still has the same issue with the Samsung bluetooth stack in ICS that Gingerbread had. Sounds like Samsung didn't change this between Gingerbread and ICS.
I don't have ICS installed yet, so I can't say for sure if it will work for ICS, but SixAxis works on stock Samsung GB firmwares. The SixAxis app was updated late 2011 to work with the Samsung bluetooth stack using a tunneling protocol workaround.
I've tested and gamed plenty of SNES and PSX games using my PS3 controller on my phone, plugged into my TV via MHL.
Im do not own PS3 and its controller and im not planning to buy one in near future.
Anyway i still have no luck with wiimote, tested FoxHound ICS rom and same behaviour as with stock rom, phone keeps asking for pin when pairing wiimote.

Isn't Fox Hound based on stock? If so, then it will use the same bluetooth stack, and have the same issue.
As of now your only hope for WiiMote to work is to go with an AOSP ROM, like CM9. Or any other AOSP based ROM.
Or, buy a ps3 controller for $30-40 and use SixAxis.
With CM9 nightlies getting cleaner and cleaner, is it possible that this is soon work?
