I was reading this article http://bit.ly/o1fK41 and this user was able to play games on his phone with his PS3 controller.
I downloaded the Sixaxis Compatibility Checker to see if the Rezound was compatible or not. I tried a few times, doesn't seem the Rezound is one of them, maybe I did something wrong, but I don't think I did. I'm thinking it has something to do with Sense? Hopefully once we have a working ICS ROM, I can try this particular app again.
Until then I was wondering if anyone knows of an alternative application or way around this? I was going to try and do with my Kindle Fire, but I forgot my KF doesn't have BT. I've downloaded a bunch of PSX games, would love to play them.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks guys!
I second that, can't wait to use my ps3 controller with modern combat 3....I used to use my ps3 controller with my Evo, I'm guessing it only works with AOSP Roms?

Important - Due to the non-standard protocol that the controllers use to communicate with the host, this application requires root access. Additionally, it is incompatible with most HTC devices and some newer Samsung devices. This is due to the required bluetooth protocol not being implemented on these devices. We are actively looking into a work around, but currently the only solution is to install a custom firmware, such as Cyanogenmod, that supports the required protocols.

I used this all the time on my Bionic for SNES ROMs and it is one of the main reasons I am waiting for an AOSP ROM. As for other solutions, I haven't found any yet.
It looks like ics is the only way to get it to work on the rezzy. Hopefully it isn't to much longer until we see 4.0.3.
Until then maybe I can use my PS3 controller on my PC? I've been trying to figure out how to play my PSX roms on Win7, having a really hard time trying to figure out how to use this emulator, having a lot of problems! hmmm...

Nah, doesn't seem to work with ICS... well the ICS RC with cleanROM at least. I just tried today.
It's probably the same reason why Wii controller stuff doesn't work on Sense ROMs. I'm not even going to pretend like I fully understand it, but the tl;dr version is that Sense doesn't have a bluetooth stack that is compatible with the controllers, but AOSP does. And no, there's not a way to get it to work with Sense at this point in time.
It has to set up when compiling the kernel.

Got it running on my PC, laptop, and netbook. Shoot me a PM if you need a hand, but i've used ePSXe, PCSX2, Dolphin, all using DS3 Tool for the PS3 controller. Initial setup can be a pain, their docs and wikis are great helps.

It has to do with the bluetooth stack that HTC chose to insert in their ROM vs the bluetooth stack that comes with AOSP Android. We had the same problem on the Galaxy S. Samsung used a different bluetooth stack in their touchwiz UI. Until HTC and Samsung use a bluetooth stack that has the right protocol it wont work.
Has nothing to do with the kernel.

Is it really necessary to act like a child when someone clears up a question? His post was right. Yours was wrong. Accept it graciously and grow up. The Rezound forum is feeling like a daycare because of exactly this kind of BS.

It is not JUST the bluetooth stack, if it were, you could just replace the bluetooth stack from AOSP into a rom that it doesnt work in (sense, touchwiz), but it does not work. Sense itself disables many of the protocols for non-standard bluetooth types, why ill never know. They fixed it on i believe the sensation or something by making a custom kernel and now they can use the Wii remote in sense. Its nowhere simple in anyway. Of course, if we had AOSP, it would work out of the box and no hassle involved.

Wouldn't think twice about it. You'll love having it unlocked and rooted. There are plenty of amazing ROMs right now to choose from. My phone's faster, smoother, and all around better. Just do it. You won't regret it.
Do it, you won't regret it.
What ROM would you recommend? I'm probably going to get an ics one without sense, but is de-sensedish or senseless better?

My understanding is that the ICS roms out there are mostly based off of a shaky HTC leak or two.. If you try one, I'd suggest Scott's (CleanROM/Senseless) as he's a constant presence in his release threads. I've been using his GB CleanROM builds and they've been flawless. Whichever way you go, be sure to follow every instruction to a tee...you won't brick, but one missed sentence can cause a mess of frustration
Asking whether our not to root, and then jumping head-first into ICS seems like a bad idea. The mainver issues inherent with all the different leaks can cause some real headaches for inexperienced rooters.
I would suggest sticking with GB for now until you learn a bit more about the process on this device. S-on while unlocked means you have to know exactly what you're flashing if you aren't gonna have adb access all day.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk
I agree on not going straight to ICS at this time.
I have tried all the ICS ROMs just to see what they are all about, but they all have bugs and certain apps are not compatible ICS yet.
I always end up going back to the setup in my sig which I absolutely love. That is partly because neither of my two favorite themes work in ICS, but even if they did I would still wait for it to mature a little more before swapping back to it.
No problems here with ICS
Although you might want to try some gingerbread roms at first, Many of the non ASOP ICS roms are very stable. As for the mainver issue, just flash the kernel via flastboot and you should be fine. if you need help with anything just let me know. For your first rom i would recommend cleanrom or rezrom.
Even if you don't want to install different ROMS (but why wouldn't you) gaining root gives you so much more freedom on your device, from changing boot animations, to doing backups.
I recommend you unlock and root. I have run both SenselessROM ICS and CleanROM ICS and they both work great and perform better than GB, at least according to AnTuTu Benchmark. I currently use Scott's CleanROM 2.2 ICS. It is fast and very stable. Only bug I have with it is no streaming media thru bluetooth.
Yes but the streaming through Bluetooth is an issue for all ICS roms.

The trick is to not turn off your bluetooth device, but the bluetooth on the phone when not using it. That has worked for me, saving me from having to re pair the bluetooth.

Don't have that choice. The earpiece turns itself off when charging. A nice "feature" the manufacturer added.

why wouldnt it be a "feature"? why would anyone want to use the bluetooth with the usb cable poking out the back? not to mention the ear piece would likely just fall out of your ear if it was plugged in hehe..
to the OP, if your phone is working 100% to your liking, and you in no way feel its imperfect, then no, dont root.
if its say... 99% to your liking.. root it and get your 1% back!
cheers
Hmm if this is your first time rooting
I had two thunderbolt (mine and my gfs), one samsung charge , and the xoom tablet and couple of old iphones. So i went through many roots, jailbreaking etc..
I gotta say, hands down, the rezound is the trickiest,however, far form impossible due to the amazing devs support.
You really need to start with a simple phone that has s-off (like my loyal tbolt). after you get the complete gist of rooting, you have to back to school to understand the difference between unlocked bootloader and s-off.
Just to get the ota update, i spent close to one week just reading endless forums and user reports. When i did it, it worked flawlessly, but i still have a residual migraine from the amount of info i had to really understand.
of course now that i accomplished it, it seems like cake, which make me get to the next point; just because someone says its easy, it doesent mean it is.
Point is, if your a noob(i, in no way, want to insult you, just watching out for you), find a nice person on this forum that accomplished this and Pm them every step of the way. This community has matured and developed to fight against one enemy, the big red, and all their ways trying to hinder us from getting 100 % of our money.
Bottom line: If this is your first root, or if this is your first s-on unlocked bootloader root, spend at least 2 weeks to understand EVERYTHING you need to do, but without a doubt, you will only unlock this beast's potential when you root and unlock it, only then will you see why developers are jumping ship as well as old g-nex users to this phone
I can vouch for reading again and again what you are planning to do. I wanted to update my firmware for the radios and I read for almost a week on how to accomplish this. The sheer volume of topics on that one subject is amazing.
Bottom line, search, read, search some more, and when you think you done, search at least two more times.

BFD what antutu says, that means absolutely nothing.
I have seen absolutely zero real world performance difference between my current setup & ICS. That, some app/theme incompatibility & the BT streaming issue (I use BT in my car every day) are plenty to keep me on GB for now.

HTC Sense overlay in a rom does NOT enable the proper BT protocols necessary to run wiimote or sixaxis for emulation. Part of the reason i am salivating for ANY fully functional AOSP-ish rom regardless of performance.
Thanks for the info guys, hopefully we get one sooner rather than later.

it works great! i have my 64gb microxd loaded with every conceivable rom/iso that CAN be emulated on a rezound and it works great on ALL emulators that support key remapping.
one caveat though...had to revert to gingerbread rom for functionality to work properly in the emulators and the gamepad. small price to pay for this performance level in emulation though.
would be great if an admin could move this and sticky it in the accessories area, pretty groundbreaking info for anyone wanting to use a gamepad with a sense device..
Wanted to know if anyone who got this has tried it with any ICS Sense ROM and has it working?
EDIT: Tried BAMF 2.0, 2.1 and Senseless (all based on ICS) but could not get the controller to work with any of these. Switched to CleanROM 1.7.5 and works flawlessly now. Going to try and hunt for the BAMF Cubed files.
Wanna play some games with a Wii Remote on your Rezound?
A lot of you were wanting to connect a Wii Remote to your Rezound (myself included) and several were annoyed and rather upset to find that Sense UI just doesn't do the job. Sense masks the necessary drivers. Well I have good news, but it's obviously not going to work with every ROM. Needless to say, it'll take some playing with. If you have a Sense based ROM, you'll probably have a harder time; though, the ROM I am using is not completely Senseless, so who knows... you may luck up!
What I am using:
CleanROM Developer Edition 1.4
3.13xx Kernel from the same developer and post.
ICS Firmware (Not sure if this will matter or not.)
It took some playing with, but I finally got my Wii controller to connect. Here's what you do. Go to the links below.
First:
Here
Second:
Here
You can get it from the market, but you have to have the second link in order for the Wii driver to be recognized by the program.
Before going into the program... let me save you some time. Go into a text field in a program, type "0000" and copy that text. You'll use this later.
Once you have these installed, it gets tricky.
1) Do NOT turn on bluetooth first... open the program and let the program start bluetooth using the check box.
2) Once BT is turned on, tap "Select IME", Select "Bluez IME"
3) Tap "Select Device"
4)Scan. Press 1 + 2 buttons simultaneously on the controller. The address for your controller should show up. Tap on it.
It will now ask you to confirm pairing with bluetooth device, open that dialog box. While the dialog box for accepting the bluetooth device is up, paste the text you copied earlier into the text field and hit "OK." (The controller may stop pairing, and the dialog box may go away, don't panic.) By default, the PIN is 0000. If you can type it, do so. If not, it'll probably still work (I didn't actually have to type it in, it just started working. )
Okay, now that you have it semi-paired, you'll only tap on "Select IME" from now on. When you tap it and select a different input method, it will automatically turn bluetooth off. Likewise, when you tap "Select IME" and select "Bluez IME," it will turn bluetooth on and display "Connecting to XX.XX.XX.XX" (<-- your Wii remotes address here). At this point, simply press 1 + 2 and it should display connected. To test if it's working, simply scroll through the menu using the d-pad. That's it!
This is my first walkthrough and I apologize if it's hard to understand! It goes without saying that I am not responsible for what you do to your phone. But it should all go smoothly!
Let us all know if you have come up with any better solutions and I'll update accordingly! Enjoy guys!
Here is a video as proof to the nay-sayers!

I have 2 Wii remotes, one is original Nintendo, the other is after market. I got both of them to work. I have not tried the nun-chuck with it, but I know some of the emulators have an option for it. I'm assuming the nun-chuck works with other phones using this program, so I don't see how it wouldn't work. I'll probably try that out tomorrow.
Edit: The nun-chuck does in fact work with it. I plugged mine up before pairing, and it had no effect on pairing. Works great with Mario 3!

I don't know all the changes they made with the firmware update, but I would assume that bluetooth was one of the changes made. I say that because before the firmware leak, devs were having issues getting BT to work with the ICS Roms. So, that being said, this may only be possible with the firmware update. Keep in mind, however, that I had to play with it quite a bit to get it to work. It was totally worth it though, I was playing Supe Mario 64 on my phone with the nun-chuck and all.

I'm using ICS now, but I see what you're saying. When we get the official ICS ota, the devs are going to start pushing out truly senseless roms and they will likely have no problem doing this (because of the ics kernel.) Fully ASOP roms can supposedly do this natively.

Hi there, it's me again!
After being away for quite some time due to a lot of issues with my netbook, and being busy with school, I recently checked the progress on the Flyer. As expected, Dexter did an excellent job already on Jelly Bean.
I tried the ROM, and I gotta say I'm quite satisfied with it. FWIW, I am thinking about getting the 3.0 kernel from the DHD to run on the Flyer. But, I have another project I'm thinking about which sounds more interesting.
So, is anyone interested in Open WebOS on the HTC Flyer? I am considering to give it a try this week, but only if there is some potential interest from the community. It would pretty much be an effort where I try to combine various challenges: getting WebOS to boot, and getting the Raspberry Pi to compile Android kernels, since my netbook does a horrible job at this.
Please report if it sounds interesting for you, and if I get positive answers, I'll do some research on the structure of OWOS.
Although WebOS seems nice I'd rather see you beat the crap out of JB and try to get it fully working until you say "I can't take this any further".

I'm not sure, I actually think JB has 1 major dev working on it. Sometimes it's better to have multiple, good, mostly stable options too chose from than 1 completely perfect one.
That aside, I don't use bluetooth headset so some people who do really want the devs to pool their work into that.
I'm all for web os though. And dual boot (don't push yourself ) would be awesome.

I am using the latest JB ROM atm., and I'm wondering (since I haven't followed the development the last 2 months): what is really broken atm? Aside from bluetooth.
Mine VM with Ubunto is stil there for u if u decide to give Flyer some more of your time. Am I interested? I am interested in Flyer with as much hardware working posible; working BT for voice calls, music and movei playback. As long as those work well i dont care even if it is Win 3.11EE if it runs nice and smooth. However Geting camera and hw movie playback suport on JB would be very nice and would get the ROM to TOP level. U cracked those nuts on ICS; any way u give it a try on JB?
Welcome Back CHAOS I agree with Antis (even though I don't really Know the advantage of WebOs) i was hoping that You could do something like get the front camera working for Skype

No HW playback support, no cammera and videorecorde, some flickering i belive,... rest is nearlly all there! So close to top BUT BT is FIXED (no report if for calls as well but rest been tested and reported 100% working BT functionalities)
I am not sure dual boot would be neat but i know thats asking alot. but like every one else don't matter to me if it JB OR ICS as long as we can get a nice and smooth working rom that has BT good HW for movies ect and cameras working i will be as happy as a puppy with to peckers ....

Hardware Acceleration for video playback. WebOS would be interesting.

Hi there, it's me again!
After being away for quite some time due to a lot of issues with my netbook, and being busy with school, I recently checked the progress on the Flyer. As expected, Dexter did an excellent job already on Jelly Bean.
I tried the ROM, and I gotta say I'm quite satisfied with it. FWIW, I am thinking about getting the 3.0 kernel from the DHD to run on the Flyer. But, I have another project I'm thinking about which sounds more interesting.
So, is anyone interested in Open WebOS on the HTC Flyer? I am considering to give it a try this week, but only if there is some potential interest from the community. It would pretty much be an effort where I try to combine various challenges: getting WebOS to boot, and getting the Raspberry Pi to compile Android kernels, since my netbook does a horrible job at this.
Please report if it sounds interesting for you, and if I get positive answers, I'll do some research on the structure of OWOS.

Wow..it would definitely be very interesting! WebOS still will be a cool OS to try out.
By the way, thanks for coming back & welcome!
WebOS would be so slick.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1724246&page=54
i belive to help with video decoding fix wich is missing in latest JB... U think u can help with this?
I personally would prefer a fully working JB ROM (we're sooooo close now), but WebOS would be a cool OS to fiddle with.

-Camera (front\back)
-Cant change CPU clock
-Some bugs with graphics
-External SD on AOKP is bad
-Boot animation
If you help him do it, it will be best ROM. Please.
yes, or maybe no...
while I'm a huge fan of webOS and would love to see it on the flyer I think your time may be better utilized by teaming with Dexter to finish ironing out the wrinkles in his JB build first, then perhaps a dual-boot option?

I loved web os on my palm pre, just didn't like the hardware. I would love to have it on my view. Especially if we could dual boot it.

Slide out keyboard had very small keys and the slider mechanism was very poor. Screen was also very small compared to today's phones. The only nice thing was wireless charging. That was awesome.
WebOS ran very well on it though.
