So now that we have root, ICS and awesome TPTs . I decided to play shadowgun the way it was meant to be played.. with a gamepad! and it is awesome! Just wanted to confirm that ps3 sixaxis works with our tablets and even over bluetooth for anyone who hasnt tried or is just curious if it works or not.
You played with gamepad while having ICS installed or HC? Just curious if this works in the ICS build.
I have played several games on my tpt running ICS with a PlayStation 3 controller.

Woooot! Good times.
yeah sorry should have been more clear. i am, with apparently a few others, am using the ps3 controller on my thinkpad running the alpha ics cm9 build by jon and koshu.

Hi all,
I was thinking about purchasing a nook color and having fun with roms and themes. I'm wondering though if anyone has tried a playstation emulator on one of these? Looks like this has the same specs as the Droid 2 and X so it seems possible. Could maybe use a controller over Bluetooth?
I'm also wondering what the "stock" market place is like. Is it possible to access the full market once your rooted?
Thanks in advance.
After overclocking to 1.1ghz running cyanogenmod 7, the playstation emulator works very smooth for me, and I use a wii classic controller over bluetooth. Not all games will run though.
On the stock rom you cant really do much, but once you're running a custom rom you can do pretty much anything.
this sounds pretty awsome

actually, i'm running stock rooted and psx4droid runs fine for me... playing super puzzle fighter and FFVII so far. just using the on-screen keys.
I'm running CM7 off of SD card OC'd to 1.1ghz with psx4droid app . Knockout Kings runs, but pretty choppy. Blood Omen Legacy of Kain runs perfect (weird choice I know but nostalgic for me).
Also running N64oid but for N64 games, at least for me, they don't run smooth enough to really play. Almost but not quite.
I'm not aware of having problems accessing the market place. Both Android and Amazon seem to work great for me.
Just for people who are interested in playing emulator games with there wiimote,
I can confirm that the wiimote can be used with the samsung leaked ICS rom.
this means that the bluetooth stack has been modified and now successfully can
connect with the Stock Samsung Rom
I've been using cyanogenmod mostly because of the wiimote bluetooth connection problem with the gingerbread stock rom from samsung.
Because the MHL TV-out cable isn't working (yet) with cyanogen so I would like to return stock rom so I can play games on my tv.. seems ICS would be ready for it
Cyanogenmod is a great piece of work (lost of tweaking options) so if CM9 would support Tv-out I'll go for cyanogen.
Nice find! Let's hope this is the case for the final build!
wait a minute! Does that mean that I will have MHL and wiimote support BOTH when I upgrade to ICS??? Oh tell me I'm right!:-O Has anyone tried ICS on SGS2 yet to confirn that both MHL and wiimote are working? any videos?
Use a wiimote with a GS2 hum....
Why not ? lol
I've a rooted KF with CM7 barebones and I've bought this device primarily for gaming, so I'm loving this ROM.
However, I do want to use other apps such as XDA forum app and browsing/reading apps. But some of these apps don't seem to be stable on CM. The irony especially is that the XDA app keeps crashing whenever I log in. So I can only browse the forum as a guest from my KF.
Now are there any gamers out there who are able to play games smoothly on a stock or stock rooted KF? I think especially games like Frontline Commando or Modern Combat 3 are heavy on the resources and if they play well on the Stock KF, then I should be happy with it.
Any inputs? Are there ones that really prefer the Stock ROM over CM7 for reasons other than stability - for reasons such as performance for instance?
Also, if I have a rooted stock KF and the anroid market, then are all the apps/games on the Market visible and installable? I am asking this since the CM7 spoofs Galaxy Tab to ensure compatibility.
I use MIUI 2.1.20 to play NOVA, Modern Combat, Shadow Gun, etc... I haven't found a single app that doesn't work (I've been using it for 6 days). Hope that helped! Feel free to send me a message if you wanna know more.
I'm running rooted stock and am able to play shadowgun without a hitch.

Have you tried GTA3 and Sonic CD?
well... xda isnt stable on stock either. on rooted, without modifying build.prop, it wont show 75% of the games you mentioned. cm7 is definetly a better option.

Just to throw in my two cents... while I do like the customizations that are possible with CM7 and ICS I find that modified stock is more stable and, for my usage, better battery life.
You should try a Xbox 360 or a PS3 for actual gaming. Just saying...

Because the PS3 and Xbox fit great in your coat pocket for on-the-go.... (rolls eyes).
I've had pretty good luck with the MoDaCo rom. You get the advantages/stability of stock with everything under the hood modded, including the build.prop, market access, etc. It's ran everything I've thrown at it so far.
Thanks all for your inputs. I went to MoDaCo from CM7-Barebones as I wanted to try the stock feel. The stock Kindle is way way better for reading thanks to the various font size and typography features.
Even the games ran quite well on the MoDaCo and I was quite happy all these days as everything was working without a glitch.
However, when I wanted to play some gameloft games - I have purchased Modern Combat and Nova series, then poof... they don't appear on the market. I even changed the build.prop but no go. MoDaCo says they have the tweak that will show the Fire as Galaxy Tab on the market for more compatibility but even that didn't work.
So today I am back to CM7 and glad to see that the apps I want show up on market. Need to play around and see how this goes. Sad that I will be missing out on the reader experience though.
I am running CM7 with ravens kernel and play many of the same games you mentioned without issue. I had to download the modified build.prop but have not had any issues. Battery life is excellent and since ravens kernel overclocks performance is good.
try modaco custom rom with ravens kernel. It handled all the games I've thrown at it. I get like 2400-2500 quadrant scores from ravens kernel compared to 2000 stock kernel. So if you want the fastest stock experience I say go for that.

I'm on GR6 but think I'm using a stock kernel. Do you have a link to Raven's Kernel and some install instructions?
Also, what launcher do you use with MoDaCo ROM as I can't get ADW to run (immediately FCs).
Here's the link to the kernel.

I'm using the stock launcher but ive used go launcher and adw ex without any issues .

I'm having issues flashing the kernel. What's steps do I need to go through to flash it. I keep getting the error that it can't locate the file or mount the system.

I thought we should have a general gaming thread for our nook hd's and HD+'s. I use mine for gaming a lot of the time so I figured that other people probably do also. You can post anything related to gaming on the nooks here such as games that run great on the tablets, games that aren't supported, asking question pertaining to how games work on the tablets etc. So, does anybody know any really great games or have any questions about games on the nook? If so, fire away!

Games on nook HD+
I'm currently running stock, unrooted 2.1.1 with nova launcher and sideloaded g-apps on a Nook HD+.
I've only put a few games on it so far. Iron Man 3 and Epic Citadel both run very well, which was a pleasant surprise.
Epic Citadel also has some benchmarking features which report decent scores for the Nook HD+.
I also installed Google Ingress, but it just crashes after launch. The crash occurs just after the opening graphic with the globe. This happens under 2.1.0 and 2.1.1.
Any thoughts on how to troubleshoot the Ingress issue beyond the basics (clear cache, reinstall) ?
Has anyone tried asphalt 8 on the nook?

On medium settings it runs pretty nice, but asphalt itself is pretty bad.
On the other hand EA Real Racing is much better game, but it runs not so smooth.
I am running CM11 on my two Nook HD+ (latest Feb-26th nightly, I just updated both tablets)
I have a strange WIFI related issue with Minecraft PE. Minecraft PE allows you to share your game (your world) with any other device running Minecraft PE on the same LAN. When I open a world with any other device (HP Touchpad, phone), all other devices in the LAN can see the game, even the two Nook HD+. However, when I start a world with a Nook HD+, no other device (the HP Touchpad, the phone, not even the other Nook HD+) can see it.
I wonder if anyone else has found this problem ..
Games Not Working - the haunt (1&2)
the Haunt and the Haunt 2 (and, I assume, all their other games) will not run on my Nook HD+ running CM11 (latest nightly) with PAs 0-Day gapps. In fact, these games stopped working on my Nook Tablet (16gb) after I upgraded it from CM7 to CM9. I contacted the developer (Synthesis Design Solutions), letting them know I was trying to play their games on a rooted Nook HD+ running CM11 (etc.) and they told me to try and download the games from the Nook Store again. Huh?
Well, I didn't download them from the Nook Store to begin with - I no longer have access to the Nook Store after rooting/modding - and the games WORKED on my Nook Tablet running CM7 until I upgraded it (as I said), so now what? Why did they stop working? What was different between CM7 and CM9 on one device and having CM11 on another? If those games ran once, they should always run, unless there was some change in android... And why can I download from the Google Play store, install them, and then they don't run? Really?!
I've tried just about everything to get these games working, except modifying the build.prop, just so I can play the darn things! I tried a couple of Xposed modules (RootCloak and App Settings), and they were no help. So I am left with this: a black screen with a little message saying "Warning This device is not supported."
So, anybody have some idea of how to make this work, short of modifying the build.prop?
Also, I won't purchase any more games from this developer in fear of them not working as well.
Thanks!
I installed n64 emulator and am playing army men 2. Running cm11 with bluetooth keyboard for control. Works great!

Well my best guess is they check for screen dpi and error out, change the build prop settings and see if they run? Best guess I have for that error, I had the same on some games from a old phone that I had to change build prop to 120 and reboot to play them.
From the Ether of Time
Has anyone tried CM 1.2 final stable release with the Wii remotes? I cannot get the HD+ to detect the WiiMotes at all.
I have also tried using WiiMotes, and it will not work on android builds that are 4.2 or newer. I made a CM10.0 SD-card build, and WiiMotes work on it, but the HDMI out to TV causes the HD+ to reboot.
There's an explanation within one of the development threads as to why the WiiMotes are not working w/ Android 4.2+. Something about how the Bluetooth stack doesn't contain some legacy code that the WiiMotes used to communicate. PLEASE do not quote me on this, as I am writing this in a hurry. Search the forums here for the proper explanation.
hello to everyone in xda forum,I wanted very much like to bring Gamecube emulator to run, but which version should I use? I have read that has the emulator no controller configuration, at least the recent developer builds. but the old builds can because I do not want to play with an old build, I wanted you to ask times version which I need to mapping the controller and which version best running (play I would burnout 2, luigis mansion and bloody roar primal fury )
There is a thread here that should get you in the right direction. http://forum.xda-developers.com/shield-tv/general/dolphin-wii-gamecube-emulator-t3134032/page11
I started on page 11, because it seems to suggest older builds still work better. With that in mind, this video should allow you to run some of the gamecube games you are talking about. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCJKOKAc0Rs
