Wiimote and SGS2 - Galaxy S II General

Hi all,
First , i'm french , so my english is maybe bad at moment...
So , i see that with the cyanogen mod , we can use wiimotecontroller to pair Wiimote with SGS2. but with touchwizz it's impossible (i'm with revolution rom..)
Someone try to take "bluetooth" files of cyano (with permissions of course) to try it on touchwizz ? or all the system block it ? thanks ..
Blue.

I wish this would happen too, but I don't think it will anytime soon.

And why would someone want to use wiimote with am android device. Could you give practical examples? I have a wii but I dont know what to do with the remote on my android

Emulators. They play amazingly on the SGS2!
Can you imagine having everything on your phone, your favourite classic games, and you are just bored waiting around for a flight for example? Can just take out the SGS2 and Wiimote to kill some time, perfect.
Or if you have an MHL cable, hook it up for TV, and play. Better than packing up a whole console to take around with you (for example to a friends place) than having everything almost perfectly playable on your SGS2.

jpxdude +10 ! i play to Secret of mana (a old game i have on Snes) and with a wiimote , i can have a better gaming experience

Once one of the AOSP roms is ready you'll be able to link up ps3 or wiimotes to your hearts content. Not long now... Could always load the tw launcher in if you really miss it

The issue isn't Touchwiz but the bluetooth stack which Samsung (and HTC) use doesn't support the method of pairing to the Wiimotes, where as the Cyanogen which is based on AOSP does.
The only option would be to flash an AOSP based rom.

This will be genial... Im waiting a stable pt br rom with this function

Yeah, instead of the Sixaxis use the Wiimote. But I doubt that, because of the different Bluetooth protocol?

Arf , i don't really like cyanogen or any AOSP rom .. i want to keep my Revolution roms :'( , there is no solution to changes files in systems ?

cyanogenmod doesn't have bluetooth support of any kind yet, so we'll just have to wait.

I try my wiimote on .. it's works !!!! (the wiimote is detect and butons too ..)

How did you do it?

Why not just use said emulators on a PC that has a Bluetooth card installed? It would make more sense. I'd rather not use a controller on a device that I need to play close to my face to read the text designed to be viewed on a much, much larger display.

Anyone knows if the leaked ICS are still using Samsung's BT Stack or if they rolled back to the original one?

Lol wow indeed, I never said "just for emulators" but nevertheless, if we can have a better experience with the phone (specially for gaming) then why not?

Disadvantage of using an AOSP ROM is no TV-out with MHL support.
FYI, SixAxis Controller works on stock based ROMs. I am on stock XXKI3, and it works... so you can use this in conjunction with MHL out to use ps3 controller (tested; only works with original Sony ps3 controller - knock-off I tried does NOT work) and pipe video out to TV using MHL.

@ctomgee
did u try it out on sgs2?
i heard that sixaxis does not work on sgs2

TV Out

Ok so I have searched a bit and cannot find anything related to a TV Out for the Dinc. I know I have seen it mentioned on this forum before, but search is not showing any results.
Anywho is it possible to use TV Out on a Dinc running AOSP Rom? (Miui...atm)

I have not heard of it working with AOSP ROMs, only Sense. I don't use TV-OUT at all, but seeing posts about it, it doesn't work with AOSP.
At this very moment, I don't believe so. Although I haven't kept up with any AOSP roms in months. That said, the news (and Verizon support PDF to go along with it) that there is a gingerbread update dropping hopefully this week will bring with it the proper files that AOSP rom developers need to incorporate 720p.
awesome hopefully video out is included in this GB update and can be incorporated into the AOSP roms.
I assume I need a miniusb to hdmi cable or something?

Maybe some one will make a sense-less script that you can use to remove sense but keep TV out on GB. i know Lou had a script that removes sense on his rom. it felt the same as AOSP
Does TV-out work on sense GB roms? I thought it was just working on froyo but I could be wrong. Assuming that source is going to be released now for GB, maybe we'll see something implemented into AOSP GB roms?
I have no clue about tv out compatibility on gingersense roms,I don't have a use for it. But I will say there are quite a few people anticipating updates in EVERY rom with 720, tv out, kernel development, or glitches being ironed out. I'm happy everyone gets a piece of the pie if and when the source is released.

I haven't seen it on any Gingerbread ROMS that I know of... I last had it on WarmZ which was Sense 2.0 on Froyo. The closest I figure I can get to AOSP with TV-Out is LauncherPro+ on the Sense ROM of choice.
I've been patiently waiting for it to show up on G-Bread. The cord is just sitting right there begging to be used lol I have no idea why they can't implement TV-Out on AOSP roms though. Seems like one of those features that just gets thrown in uknow.
what cord is needed? I assume the correct drivers will be found when the source is released.
I assume the GB source thats coming will fix TV-out in both Sense and AOSP roms.

Its equivalent to a DVD player or a Wii; it looks really good on CRT TV's and kinda whatever on an HD flat screen... I have a 32 inch CRT and I watch movies off the phone on a regular basis, its pretty awesome
What's a CRT? ;-)
Good info though, thanks. I've been curious about the TV-out functionality of the inc.
I purchased from my Verizon store the TV out cable. Yeah, it works like the last guy said. I picked it up primarily to watch movies on my girlfriend's CRT TV. It worked great. Then she got an LCD and it didn't look quite as good.
I lost TV out once I switched from Sense to CM7. We'll see what happens with the coming GB update. Maybe I'll switch back. I doubt it, though, especially if TV out may be coming to AOSP ROMs.

I flashed the 2.3.4 leak last night, hopefully I still get tv out

video looks good, but the processing power of the phone is limited so I've had stuttering issues with higher resolution videos that would look good on an LCD. not the cables fault.

[Q] tweak to airplay ?

Hi guys,?
I've been using my iconia for a few weeks now and i m starting to quite get along with the Android world.
Im using a FREEBOX for router and it now has AIRMEDIA, compatible with apple's airplay (again, dont throw rocks...just asking)
It made me wonder if there was any tweaks to choose the speakers i wanna use, like airplay.
Lets say i want to use gmusic and send sound to my hifi system from the tablet, how could i do that ?
Thanks forward

Yes I did. And there are alternative wireless setups you can purchase.
Last time I was at Radio Shack, I saw a unit that you plugged into your headset jack, then plugged the receiver into your stereo which allowed wireless transmission from one to the other. I don't remember how much they cost, but I remember it wasn't too pricey.
Thanks, i ll look into it

Found a solution for this?
I have the Airplay DLNA speakers from Bowers & Wilkins, the Zeppelin Air. Currently I am streaming thru Twonky mobile and this works perfect on my Galaxy TAB.
I also tried Honey Player and DoubleTwist, but both of these apps do not do the trick...
Nevertheless am I searching for a way to stream Radio and Podcasts....
Who can help?
MP3, Radio and Podcasts now via Honey Player (new version 7th of July) working with my B&W Zeppelin Air speakers!! Apple Airplay on Android.. nice ..

Xperia Arc S CM9 Issues

Hello guys.
I've been using CM9 for a while now.
Well there are some issues.
So i have a 3D tv and the 3d panorama function doesnt work.
HDMI connection doesn't work
Normal panorama mode doesnt work.
When i press the home button it takes a while for the phone to wake up.
Browsers randomly crash,I'm using dolphin browser wich also crashes like the stock one.
After unlocking the phne sometimes icons on the homepage wont show for a while.
In the car when im using the gps and the battery goes down i plug it into the car charger but charges slowly and discharges while connected,this doesnt happen with the wall charger.
HDMI is the most important from the list above,are these known issues?
If so is there a work around?
I hate apollo too,any free music apps you guys use?
I'm searching for new rom too,if you know any please post them
Thanks very much
HDMI isn't ever going to work in CM9 so you should try a different ROM. JJs Hybrid for example...
Sent from my LT18i using xda premium
Yup!
CM9 is a ROM for users who want a stock experience, i doubt they would develop any more features
HDMI won't be in CM ROMs, unless Sony makes it opensource.
Browsers randomly crash,I'm using dolphin browser wich also crashes like the stock one.

I use boat browser which is very light compare to other and it doesn't crash a lot. I recommend using it :good:

Ive got one, had it for xmas from my daughter, pretty happy with it, wifi is fine not sure about the range as my router is about a metre away from tv so cant comment on that, running xbmc rc3 on it and dvds and livetv works well, struggles abit with true HD as dont think its hardware accelerated. Only gripe ive got at the moment is altho it came with flash player installed it doesnt work ive tried updating it from the adobe archive page but the settings page is just greyed out, maybe someone on here can fix it which is why i just joined

I've got one, I think it lacks good video drivers.
Bad synk audio video, stuttering video.
It has a diffrenet wif/BT chip compared to the 802 but same SOC (I think) so the custom roms from the 802 work but you get no wifi & BT.
The BT exists but does not work with my mouse, it pairs but nothing more, I think the original ROM lacks BT mouse support.
I would say a 802 with working custom ROMs is a much better deal for the moment, but this could change anytime soon or never.
I've had one for a while and didn't use it that much until I flashed finless bob's rom for the imito mx1/2, which has the same basic internals. It is much smoother and faster than before, but this could be partly attributed to the newer kernel this rom possesses.

Not to sound like an idiot because I'm just asking you to repeat what you just posted, but you can confirm that finless' ROM will flash onto the UG007 with no modifications needed?

Works fine for me on the stock rom, but you do need to be rooted. I use this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller&hl=en
The "tester" app they have doesn't work FYI but the full one does.
Thank you the actual paid one works great thanks for the info
