Tablet to control PS3? - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any way that I could possibly use my GT10.1 to control my PS3 system? Just wondering because it would eliminate how many controllers/items I would need by my bed side haha thanks for your time

Try Blueputdroid... not sure if it works on tablets, but I used it on my phone and it worked great.

I tried it but it won't connect. Comes up with a passkey, but after I enter the key it thinks for a 20-30 seconds then says connection failed.

+ 1 same problem with confirmation. Did you find a solution yet? Thanks

Or buy the dock, root, then take it back. There is no restocking fees for returned accessories at corporate stores.

or go to a sprint store and use the hd station display to root your phone. I did it after someone else in another post made a tinyurl to download the appropriate file. It's really simple. Can't wait to use my ps3 controllers! Hope games like shadowgun come with the capability built in but i doubt it.
It just hangs on mine with the Sixaxis compatibility checker (yes I'm rooted). Are you on MR3 ?

Dock-less root now possible
Has anyone got this to work on our phones yet?
I am rooted. I can get the controller to pair, and I can get the controller to dump the mapped keys into text boxes, but not in any emulator.
The stranger part is that I can map the keys in Gameboid, Snesoid, and PSX4Droid using the controller itself (so I know the emulator is reading it) but once I go to the game I get 0 response from the controller.
Just kidding. Had to enable bluetooth controllers in other settings. Confirmed working 100%

Had it working mint for the past few weeks
Just had a system update (45.2.7) and now it doesn't
When I try to start it, now it says "permission denied"
If I stop and start it, it says "ps3 remote wants to pair, please initiate using phone"
when I try to sync from my phones bluetooth settings it asks for a pin and then times out
gonna try uninstalling and going through the setup procedure again when I have time, just wondering if anyone else had this problem
ETA- just checked out the update thread, turns out I lost root, meh
Did you reroot?
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
Not yet, I have tuesday off so I'll mess around with it then and post what I needed to do to get it working again
Hopefully it's just a re-root
Eta- just needed to root it again, works fine
to get root again will take all of about 4 mins, but if you erased your settings then youll have to do all that work again. but im glad to find out this phone has a nice enough bt stack to work with it. anyone try playing minecraft with it?
can anybody tell me which emulators support the ps3 controller

Found the app. It's called "Pocketaudio Headphones" works great. It's over the wifi but works on pc and mac. I'm working on reducing the delay.
Later
Very nice, in the app description there says minor delay can occurs. I'm pretending using it to watch movies. Have you tested it? is the delay acceptable?
Thanks in advance!

Yeah the audio delay is not bad at all but it is there. Perfectly acceptable.

Using the Note as a Computer

I was looking at the Galaxy Nexus threads and saw this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_--zcmqIyRI and decided I would try it out on the Note. I did this on my Evo when I had one so this isn't a new idea but I kind like it. This isn't an in depth video, it just shows you how it works with what I have working with it. The commands that the Nexus user can use with his keyboard I couldn't get to work with the Note. Not sure if its an ICS thing or what. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=laUNz7QJ9Wo&feature=youtu.be
I too have been playing around with this and it is a pretty novel idea. It isn't 100% there yet in terms of being a setup I could use full time, but it does let me travel without my laptop and plug in to a hotel TV.

Is there a way to make the Motorola Lapdock to work with the Note or something similar?
I was hoping to put Ubuntu on my phone and be able to mirror that to the screen.
Any suggestions?

Can you get any of the commands to work from the keyboard like the Nexus? I'm not having much luck there. Might be a gingerbread thing.

I just found an old Bluetooth Virtual Keyboard (it's a small black box that you set on a table, and it projects a full-sized keyboard onto whatever flat surface it's sitting on using a laser) I used to use with my Windows Mobile 2003 PDA and tried to pair it with my Note today. It works flawlessly! This thing hasn't worked with any of my devices since WinMo 5, and even then it usually required a driver to be installed. Not with the Note! Just need to be sure I have the Samsung Keyboard selected (but it doesn't need to be open). I just keep getting more and more excited about this thing (except for the dark splotches on my display and low Quadrant scores).
Ok this is neat for traveling. Anyone know what cable we need to connect to the lcd monitor?

You have to have the MHL to HDMI adapter for it to work. I got mine on Amazon for $22 including shipping and got it within 5 days. Then of course a bluetooth keyboard and mouse..works good. Does your monitor have HDMI?
Edit: If your traveling I'm sure the tv might have an HDMI...unless you stay in a Days Inn as I do..

The Logitech Tablet Bluetooth keyboard/android 3.0+ works nice with the Note.
It even has 3 special keys to enable the menu, home and search buttons.

I think you just need to hold the PS button for about 5-10 seconds. (I think)
I can't get it to stop blinking when I'm playing though......
Didn't blink with my dualshock, but my old sixaxis I'm having no luck.

great, do let me know if you come across a similar issue... i would like to pair a few more devices [headset/speaker/mouse], but no luck :[
DO any of you guys know whether I have to purchase the dock to enable the PS3 controller to work?
i had it plugged in to the usb port on the dock when i initially paired mine, but now i simply turn on the bt and push the ps button and it pairs in a couple seconds... just try it and see if it works[?]
Has anyone used the phonjoy.com controllers?

Sixaxis and kernel campatability

I'm running shostock2 rom, which is awesome by the way. And the siyah kernel. I thought I read somewhere that some kernels don't support sixaxis. Either this true for my combination or I am doing something worng.

I am running SHOstock2 4.0.4.1.2 with the Siyah v3.5.1 Kernel, which I agree, is awesome.
When I run sixaxis compatibility checker, it says: "Your device appears to be Supported" "...try connecting your controller" I change the bluetooth address on the controller to match the one on my phone, when I hit "pair controller" it always tells me "No controller found -please connect it via USB cable" So I ordered a Micro USB OTG to USB 2.0 Adapter and tried to connect via USB cable with the same error. I am using a sony controller.
I would be willing to flash a rom and kernel to set up a "gaming rom" (I would plan on flashing back to shostock2 for everyday use)
any suggestions?
I might be wrong but I think once you've changed the Bluetooth numbers it should already be paired. Pairing through the app changes the Bluetooth numbers for you without needing the computer program to do it. Hit start in the app, wait till it says listening for controller, then turn on your controller. Wait for it to connect. Let me know what happens.

I double and triple checked the blue tooth address. It wouldn't let me use an o in place of a zero. Here are some pictures. I'm sure that it is something simple that I am overlooking, I just don't know what it is.
