hey. Ive been trying to sync a wiimote to my galaxy s2 but I cant do it. I've root my phone and I saw an old post about a guy who achieved that. (galaxy s2 wiimote gaming holder)
so.. until today is any way to connect a wiimote to galaxys2? I would like to play n64 emu with it. thanks
Why not just user a ps2 sixaxis joypad? I'm not sure the wii works yet, at least, the best i know

You meant ps3, right? I don't know of a ps2 sixaxis controller. I don't think one exists.

See here. That guy had some luck, but I can't personally vouch for any of his information since personally I use SixAxis with my ps3 controller.

Hi
I'm the "lucky guy" here ;p
I can confirm that I play with my wiimotes on my SGS2 . But all Roms does not work with wiimotes:
Ginberbread roms made by Samsung (= stock Rom) => wiimote sync doesn't work
Gingerbread Roms made by Miui (= Custom Rom) => Wiimote sync works (but the"MHL cable" [to play with your GS2 on your HD TV] does not work).
ICS Roms made by samsung => Wiimote sync doesn't work (because it asks for a pairing code) but MHL works
ICS Roms made by MIUI (or Cyanogen 9) => Wiimote sync doesn't work (it asks for a pairing code too) + MHL does not works
But... ICS Leaked Roms by samsung => Wiimote sync works and MHL works (so you can play N64 emulator on your TV ).
If you don't trust me, or if you don't understand me (bad english :s), you can PM me if you want
PS: For explanations on "MHL" : see here

I loved using my wii controller to play games, controll grooveshark and remote controll my camera on my htc hd2. But can we do it on the S2? Cognition rom so far does not work with my controller. Does anyone know of a rom that does?

Im hoping for this aswell. The Wii controller or the PS3 controller, mainly to controll some emulators.
Now that it has been a month after this post, has there been any progress on this issue? I would really love to use my Wiimote with the G SII.
I saw a thread just before about a guy on Miui with a wiimote.

is this the same protocol thats required for the ps3 controller? if it is does anyone know if its now possible to do this on a SGSII??
I guess it will work with any cm7 based mod, as cm7 bluetooth stack is compatible with the wii/ps3 controllers, is that right?
Yes CM7 should work fine.
Wii Remote Galaxy S2
Ok I have the sprint version of the S2 the Epic 4g touch and I was able to get a wii mote to sync with it for my super nintendo emulator and Roms. It's pretty fantastic and much more enjoyable than playing with a ps3 controller... At least I like it more. I am running the Calkuins.E4GT.ROM.v2.9.2 with kernel: 2.6.35.7-sph-D710.EL29-CL852097
I accidentally found out you can do this but with the snes9x ex emulator for droid and the sixaxis app installed the "search for wiimote" in the emulator will work. Before I had the sixaxis app installed it would say my device wasn't supported and from everything I've read it was because of the samsung bluetooth stacks. I'm guessing that the app fixes the stacks or finds a backdoor for it to work.
FORUM RULES
5. Post a message only once.
You've already posted it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1381081 and now you've bumped a thread from August last year to say the same?
Which game controller do you recommend? I'm mainly looking to use it on my tab for emulators and whatever android games are compatible with a controller.
I was looking at a sixaxis just because it looks like it can connect wirelessly with the app but I'd be willing to buy a USB connector and flash a kernel to make a controller compatible. Also I don't know if the dual shock 3 controller works with the sixaxis app. (I'm not sure if that's an entirely different thing)
I guess I'm mainly wondering which controller is most compatible, meaning full joy stick control and things like that.
Thanks if you can help me out!
I'm currently using my PS3 controller with the new Sixaxis App from the store. All you need is Root access and to pair your PS3 controller with a PC to tell it what your tablets Bluetooth MAC address is and it should work. I've been using it ever since with all my emulators and it works like it's supposed to.
There is also an app from the same dev to test if the controller works with your device but if its a GT 10.1 and a regular PS3 controller there shouldn't be an issue.
Does anyone have any other suggestions?
If not I'm probably going to grab a sixaxis but I want to be sure I'm getting the best since I'm not tied down to a controller for a console I already own.
Thanks
There is already another Q & A thread started by me from a while ago where some people listed a few alternatives. Just search the Q & A forum or check the first few pages and you will find the thread. Since I already own a PS3 and the other controllers aren't that available in my country it was an easy choice for me. Hope that helps.
Hello, I have been looking to use a wii remote on my g s2. I know you can use cyanogen mod or miui rooms to do this, but I prefer using checkrom to be honest.
I was hoping someone might have an idea or be able get the wii remote working on a custom from other than cm or miui
Any help appreciated
Cheers

After a bit of internet browsing I discovered that it it possible to connect a nintendo Wii mote to Android devices. Which allows for easy gameplay.
After a few minutes of app installing I discovered that the entire Samsung Galaxy series is unable to use this app for whatever reason. Apparently due to the 'Sense UI' or so this article tells me;
http://android.ccpcreations.com/wiicontroller
But in the article it mentions the only way I could connect my Wii mote to my phone is by "rooting/flashing a compatible custom firmware".
So my question is, does anyone know of a ROM upon which such things are compatible? Thanks guys!

The page actually says for Samsung devices, it's NOT because of Sense (since Sense is an HTC skin for Android)... But that's neither here nor there.
The reason it doesn't work for WiiMote is because of how Samsung utilizes the bluetooth stack. You have to flash an AOSP ROM (like CM7 or MIUI) to get WiiMote to work. The downside of this, is that as far as I know, these ROMs don't currently support TV-Out via MHL. So you can't hook it up to your TV if you wanted to whilst using the controller.
HOWEVER - the SixAxis controller app, which connects to a ps3 controller (but ONLY an original Sony ps3 controller) DOES work with the stock ROM on the Galaxy S2. I have it, and it works. With this setup, I can use a controller with my emulators and hook the phone up to my TV to play games if I wanted to.
does this appel work great on s2
If yes . With wath games?

Hey all,
I have an Asus TF300t running a CM10 nightly and Logitech Gamepad F310. The Logitech Gamepads are supposed to work, but I am having issues with mine. Games like Shadowgun and Deadtrigger detect the controller but my character spins around in a circle. And when I go to customize the controls within the game when i select an action to set to a key it automatically puts in joystick 3+ or something like that. my roommate has the same controller and his does the same thing on my tablet. Is it a bad driver or is it not supposed to work to begin with or am I doing something wrong?
EDIT 10/22/12: I flashed Hydro 4.1 JB using the guide and now my controller seems to work fine
I have the exact same problem with a Xbox360 wireless controller (using a non-official PC-USB adapter)
Shucks. Are you running CM10 as well or stock?
Plain stock JB, latest Spanish version.

Oh... the tablet is not mine and I want to keep official versions, so it looks I won't be able to play any game with my 360 controller by now :crying:
Anyway, if that's a common problem, I wonder why people ain't complaning more in the forums.
Ok, i have read many post and know that i am able to play some games using xbox controller. So do i just plug the controller to the usb dock and use or i need to install some app or roms to enable it?
I am rooted but in stock.

You have just to plug it by USB, and it should work in any game with controller support. You can also use it to navigate trough the desktop and launch apps.
I have TF300T and when it was on ICS, it worked with PS3 controller (via USB) flawlessly, but now with JB, it doesn't work whatsoever. Anyone else having this issue?
You tried Sixaxis controller app?
If u already use it go to prefrence -> Gamepad Settings -> Check Enable Gamepad
