Just curious if anyone has tried one of these or how well/poorly it may work for games and such? Been fooling around with a hand full of games, but on screen controls are terrible..
Does anyone know if one of these (appears in my attempts to only be one, which claims to work only for nokia phones??) things works? Or of any game controllers I could get that would work?
Do games have to be compatible with whatever controller I would get? Are there any other bluetooth game controllers that might work? Does anyone know which if any emulators are compatible with any sort of controller?
Anyone with thoughts or ideas on the subject?
Sorry for resurrecting this old thread
I just downloaded a pretty fun arcade style game called Overkill that supposedly let's you use a game controller called a Zeemote. It says it supports Android 2.0+ but I haven't seen anything on XDA in the Android section about anyone using one of these controllers.
I'd appreciate anyone giving some reviews about it if they have it working on any android device.
So i got this phone T5388i WINDOWS MOBILE 6.5 DUAL SIM WIFI GPS PHONE 8GB!! i cant post links sry. i got it from ebay
and was wondering what emulators can i put in it. i have no clue what these phones are capable of but with a cpu wth ~800 mhz ( i asked for better cpu ) i should be able to run some. what do you suggest?
If your phone is the Diamond2 then I believe that your phone supports 624MHz (not 800MHz^>^) but should support emulators like SNES, Sega, GBA and PSX (FPSeCe).
A friend of mine got the older model of this phone and it has ~800 Mhz cpu. I asked the seller to ship me the same older model. What type of files does windows mobile 6.5 support? is there a list somewhere? and yes, it is the diamond2.
Hi silvershot,
I have used this T52881i, use SNES and Sega on it. It’s working properly on my device. So, you can also run these emulators on your device.

Should be able to find a good few on http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ the problem I have with emulators is the controls (since I have a resistive screen - single touch).
If you really feeling adventurous try out DOSBox...then you have even more options.
Worked a treat when I had a bluetooth keyboard working though (unfortunately not working on my non-stock ROM).
Ok guys, I have done some hunting on the internet for a way to use my Android Tablet as a display for my PS3.
Now I am sure some of you are thinking "That's an effing great idea blorenzo, you are so awesome and wise" while others are thinking "why do you want to do that?"
To put it simply, for example say I am playing PS3 in my room (where my PS3 is located) but feel the sudden urge to defecate (take a ****) I can bring my Tablet into the bathroom with me, prop it on something and keep playing. (This is literally the event that gave me this idea)
On top of that say I want to play PS3 in the living room but am not in the mood to bring the entire unit downstairs, I can bring down my Tablet and plug it into the TV and boom! Or better yet say my girl wants me to watch a TV show with her that I am not into (Jersey Shore) then I can bring down my tablet and a PS3 controller (bluetooth reaches for me) and pretend I'm browsing the internet while I am really playing Killzone online.
You see in that situation it is a win/win, she thinks I'm spending time with her and I am actually having a blast killing people. I am sure there are many more uses for such an application and I could list them endlessly.
If it exists already someone point me in that direction if it doesn't... I think someone has ALOT of work ahead of them.
That's really a lot of work. Would the ps3 have built in drivers to transmit image through bluetooth? I think no, you'd need a modded ps3.

The WiiU plans on doing it...
Brothers if history has taught us anything its, when there is a will there is a way!
Lets think about this... (I'm not trying to be sarcastic or rude in anyway, I was simply asking these questions out loud to myself)
Are there Android Tablets that Support USB connections? Yes.
Is it possible to receive a video stream via USB? Yes.
So would it theoretically be possible utilizing some sort of USB Dongle? Or HDMI to USB Dongle?
reverse engineer the psp play functionality, does exactly this, right?

Ya that's what I was thinking, I remember checking out my PS3 stuff through my PSP (Checking messages and stuff) on any wifi network, but it was pretty slow and limited, no games or really anything other than the web browser and messsage box. Maybe there will be something better with the PS Vita.

this guy here seem to have done what you want http://ps3maven.com/portable-ps3-mod/ and to everybody who said it cant be done in your face
to do this with an android tablet you would need two things:
1. you would need a wireless HDMI bridge (they're expensive, but something like this: http://goo.gl/z53fL)
2. You would need someone to make a mod/app for the tablet to convert HDMI out port into an HDMI in port. This would be done in either via an app or a mod to the actual kernel and how it uses the HDMI port. AFAIK most android tablets have an Mini HDMI port on them.
Doing these two things would give you wireless signal to your tablet anywhere that is within range of the HDMI bridge.
Nice, thanks for the reply's guys and now we know for a fact that its not impossible. If we only had a Dev who could see that this would be an awesome application for a tablet and come up with a way to achieve it.
Or Sony could just release this app officially, I would gladly pay for it.
I guess I will continue to dream...
I think HDMI in for a android tablet would be sweet! Think of taking car trips with a xbox or ps3. Or any of the many other devices you could plug in!

Hmmm I guess this was a question that we wanted to turn into a development.... kinda a gray zone in my opinion. But alas I guess my opinion is null.

i have limited background in this, but was looking for the same thing. and everyone is saying it is not possible. Bluetooth is entirely plausible... plus the bandwith is **** so the image would either look good, but have about 2 frames a minute, or look like **** and be mostly playable. however, the PSP and PS Vita can do something similar over the network. if someone can rip the "Remote Play" bit out of a vita, and toss it in some sort of emulator, it might work. but the PS3 controller would likely have to be connected to the tablet.
Tablet PS3 monitor - The easy way!
Really...
If you have a PC with a video in PCI card (maybe if you don't mind the bad quality you could use a webcam even) plug your audio, and video from your PS3 to your computer. Use VLC to stream the incoming video and audio over your LAN in a format that your tablet can play. Play the stream via the media player on your tablet. Done.
Your welcome.
sounds good, buuuuuuut...

I was actually thinking of a device that did the same thing (PS3 or other video source to tablet). Have you found any products like this out there yet?
I understand what AmnzeroCorrosion is saying as to how that path may work, but I think this glosses over some technical challenges. Using most video capture cards will introduce latency b/c most video capture cards encode to MPEG. While being very efficient in bandwidth usage, MPEG uses interframe comrpession so it takes a couple frames of video being input before the first frame can be sent over the network. Couple that with network delays and the latency only increases. I wouldnt see it taking much before the latency of the setup would make it unbearable for fast twitch games.
I would be extremely interested to know if this has been tackled already.
Idisplay might work
I was googling on it and found Idisplay application. Not sure if anyone tried on it, but i am planning to use it for my PS3 and LG 3D Android mobile.
If already anyone use then welcome to share experience.

someone for the love of god port this to work on touchpad!
pretty cool though heh? as long as you have a nvidia cpu on both your desktop and tab, you can play real skyrim. This would be absolutely sick if you can use your pc mods with this too. I am in no way a dev, and i know nothing about making apps, so i cant really do a port for this, but i thought maybe someone here loves skyrim as much as I do.
I think you mean nVidia GPU for the PC. nVidia doesn't make CPUs for x86 yet.
Interesting. I don't have a PC powerful enough anyway and I don't really have any interest in Skyrim but it's great that this is even possible. Makes me think that services like Onlive aren't far off taking over.

Yea exactly. Doesn't matter at all what CPU or GPU your computer or tablet is running. Splashtop works fine regardless.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=leyx3pFzrHY
The only reason they say it REQUIRES Nvidia is that they are releasing a THD (Tegra HD) app and it was an Nvidia presentation. So of course they are going to say that you need an Nvidia graphics card and an Nvidia based tablet, etc. Utter nonsense.

I seriously had doubs this whole thread was meant serious after reading the OP and the first comments.
thanks guys
I've also been running Skyrim on my Touchpad via Splashtop and it works fine. As pointed out, it's basically the same thing those guys at the Nvidia booth were doing.
Question for the other people in the thread running Skyrim, what are you using for a controller? I am using my wireless 360 controller with the PC dongle extension hooked up to my PC's usb. It has a pretty good range around most of my apartment, but I don't really have something I can use to play it when I'm away from home.
Well, I have the HP bluetooth keyboard and a bluetooth mouse but I think that would be kind of clunky. Are there any good controllers that work well w/ CM7?
so splashtop works regardless? nice, im pretty sure that was one of those 10 cent apps i picked up during the sale. so what are the chances of connecting a ps3 or xbox controller to the touchpad so i could play at school or work or something?

Yep, it runs fine for me over wifi, though I haven't tried it over 3G/4G yet.
Supposedly, ICS has better support for gaming controllers so maybe with CM9 we'll have more options there. I seem to remember some people saying they've paired PS3 bluetooth controllers to their Android tablets running CM7 so I think it's doable but I've not tried yet.
I'm not sure if you can get a 360 controller working on it, I don't think the wireless one will because there's no drivers for it even if you get the dongle hooked up via an adapter. You might be able to get a wired one to work but then you'd have to use a Y adapter to pull in power for it.
I wish there was just an easy option for a standardized wireless gaming controller that worked well on Android without jumping through a bunch of hoops.
The Dualshock 3 and sixaxis PS3 controller works with some app from the market. Seen it in action and its pretty flawless.

You CAN use your PC mods with this, as Skyrim is actually running on your PC and streaming to your tablet. Also, this should be possible on a touchpad with Chainfire3D running on it. I am going to try it right now, in fact.

Personally, I have found Splashtop to be the best/fastest for any multimedia intensive remoting, and I have tried many. Were you connecting via the internet or local wifi ?
I think the point of that presentation is that its using tegra to recieve the compressed stream from an nvidia gpu. The regular splashtop app works exactly the same but in my experience the frame rates lag behind on the remote device to the point where i find the whole thing unplayable even on wifi at 720.
The controller is plugged in to the tablet, not the host pc.
The key word, optimization. If someone can get the stream that sharp with almost zero lag in a chainfired config on the touchpad, i would love to see it, cuz i haven't been able to achieve that myself
hey guys got my hands on a lapdock 100 for fairly cheap and am trying to figure out how to play games that require multi touch on the phone using the lapdock. does anyone know of a usb or bluetooth controller that works well? or any means to make it happen? ive loooked up several but none are very specific as to which machine types they work with... really dont want to discover this through trial and error..thanks for any help anyone can offer
9/10 bluetooth devices ar compatible with the MoPho!
That being said this one is one of my favs that's built for Android devices and its $50 & free shipping in the us!
