im a bit of a newbie and im trying to get my wiimote connected to my htc 3d, from what i understand it's sense that blocks the Bluetooth between wiimotes and Htc's. i think miui is senseless so i should be able to hook the controller up with no problem but yet i am. im using bluez ime (wii version) and the hid enabler. when i initially connect to the wiimote it asks for a pairing passkey & there seems to be no passcode >_<
i need help please, how do you get the wiimote conected??
2.8.17 is sense based. So that's most likely why.

I downloaded the Wii controller app on the market, but it gives me the message. Error! your device does't support bluetooth!
has anybody else got the wii mote to connect to there device for gaming.
i got an ass of emulators, roms, and isos so i need a decent input method
From what I understand, the bluetooth stack in samsung's version of Android isn't properly implemented or is missing features of version 2.2 etc. In effect, keyboards,mice, bluetooth controllers wont work until an updated bt stack is hacked into the roms. More than likely will be implemented in CM6 methinks. Cant wait!
Thanks for the explanation. 2.2 on galaxy s is gonna be very nice.

the problem is most likely that the program is designed for bluetooth 2.1 and we have bluetooth 3.0 so there is a compatability issue there. when they update the program to the newest bluetooth version, it should work again
Good to know. I sure hope that is the only issue plaguing the software. Not really wanting to deal with old bt stack ala HTC with Sense.
Any update, I'm using darky 10.2 but still doesn't seem to work (the app seems to stop when it detects the phone type, rather than any specific error)
Read the previous posts, it doesn't work on Samsung roms, aosp (cyanogen) roms do support it though.
I wish it worked too...
What about ICS?

Update: I am now going to be updating this thread with Roms that work with the WiiMoteController app and other HID support. If you have any extra info, please either post or PM me.
It seems that these are mostly roms built from the ground up, ones with 99% of the samsung crap removed. Here's to hoping for a nice BT stack!
Rom Compatibility List
---------------------
[ROM] Vanilla FroYo AOSP v0.8.1P -Works with WiiMote IME
[ROM][ALPHA] MIUI V3 -Works with WiiMote IME

Original Post:
I was wondering with EB01, whether HID input was supported. I really want to use a bluetooth controller with my phone
Anyone know of a way to get it working?
I noticed that I was able to connect to other phones using bluetooth after EB01, maybe it'll work with a controller too.
no, HID doesn't work yet. Regular android doesn't support it, but CM6 and CM7 do, so once kaos gets his builds working with bluetooth, we'll finally have or HID support.
wrong forum btw
my droid x would pair with a wii remote stock
I had a thought, the Galaxy Tab has Bluetooth HID support on it. Can that be ported to our Fascinate?
Bump for great justice, anyone with a clue feel like looking into this?
There's not much to do beside wait for punkkaos unless you want to help him port CM7. I've been wanting this too, so maybe if I ever get some time I might play around with the cyanogenmod source. But I have no experience writing operating systems so don't expect anything from me.
I have successfully paired and used my wiimote with my fascinate on jt's aosp using the WiiMoteController app in the market eventhough the post says bluetooth is borked. So idk what's up with that.

paired but does it connect?
I've paired my BT HID keyboard with most ROMS I've tried, but i have never connected, and never been able to use it yet. Punk Kaos is the only one i know who is working on a solution.
I will have to try pairing my wii remote than, I'll let you know results.
Update : Didn't work on JT's Superclean EB01.
I have a Wiimote working on jamezelle's MIUI, so I guess that means it works.

Oh nice! I didn't realize wiimote works on AOSP but I guess the main thing that's broken for that is bluetooth headsets? Now I need to find my bluetooth keyboard and maybe get another wiimote just for gaming. Kind of glad the bluetooth game gripper flopped, I can just get another wiimote although the PS3 controller would imo be better for emulators.
I didn't think of that, I'm going to look for an app for it

For me it won't even turn on bluetooth on vanilla aosp 0.8.1. Did you just enable it in settings?
@newtype: superclean is not an aosp rom so it still has Samsung's bluetooth stack, meaning it won't work.
i have the apple wireless keyboard working on jamzelle's MIUI v4 rom!
does anyone have a list of compatible roms that will allow this app to run on the evo 3d?
There is a compatibility checker on the market.
yea i know but instead of flashing every rom it would be easier to just have a list
I'm fairly sure that it won't work on any rom until we get an AOSP based rom. HTC for some reason didn't include the bluetooth HID (Human Interface Devices) module needed to let things like bluetooth keyboards, mice, and controllers work.
I thought I read somewhere they did something different with the bluetooth stack on the 3d besides being 3.0. Like it has HID but it's still kinda screwed up
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?

If you still search how to pair wiimote with stock ICS for SGS2 (look here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1605164).

In this thread from forever ago, sanders858 got his Wii remote to work, but I'm not getting favorable results when I try the same.
I thought the issue with connecting a Wiimote to the Rezound (or any HTC phone) was due to the BT stack in Sense ROMs. I'm currently running tachyon and there's a shot of my about screen below. it's rooted, unlocked, and s-on if any of that matters.
After enabling Bluez IME as an input method and selecting it as the IME, it automatically enables BT and it will find my official Wii controller when scanning for devices. When attempting to connect with the Wiimote (HID) device driver selected, it returns "Error: bt socket connect failed" and gives up. For giggles, I've tried other device drivers to no avail and usually forces closed.
If anyone has some insight on how to get this working or can verify a 4.2+ ROM that supports the Wiimote, I'd be muchly grateful. Thanks

i was only ever able to get any bluetooth gamepad to work with cm9 rom...has to be straight cm9
Ever tried sixaxis pair? I used it on my old phone to hook up a PS3 remote to my phone when I ran emulators, and it worked great. Only bad thing is it is a paid app, and requires a program on your computer for a one time Bluetooth mapping.
Edit: Guess you could also try Wiimote Controller from the Play Store, but you have to be under 4.2 to use it.
