I have connected my Wii remote to my PC in the past, and it works quite well. You have to skip the part where you pair the devices (enter pass keys etc).
With all of the emulators available for HD2 (inc. the awesome PSX emulator) I thought it would be good if I could connect up my Wii remote to my HD2. The touchscreen input is just too laggy and cumbersome for playing certain games.
The trouble I am having is that the HD2 and WM6.5 won't let me enter a blank passkey (or skip the pairing process). I know the remote works well on other phones - perhaps there is a registry tweak to allow blank passwords in wm6.5?
yeah !
great idear ! but i've seen another post of this on xda forom
There has been some discussion in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=335973 to get it working in windows mobile, but unfortunately with the HD2 I can't even get to the point where it is paired as the HD2 (unlike previous models) requires a passkey for pairing - there doesn't seem to be a way to lave it blank and continue.
I thought that there may be a way to change this functionality via the registry?

The Touch Diamond dosn't have any enough buttons to make it a good game phone (emulators etc). But wouldn't it be posible to sync the wiimote with the phone? Syncing it with a PC is easy.
Just an idea. Would be a cool app that isn't entirely useless ^^
How would you sync it? With what hardware?
The Wiimote uses bluetooth. I think the guy that did the software for the pc made it open source, I'm sure it wouldn't be too difficult for someone that knows what they're doing.
In theory it's just to make a program that syncs the wiimote to the phone via bluetooth and then let you map different input to different buttons.
Oh, didn't know it used Bluetooth. That's pretty cool. Would it just be for buttons or some sort of cursor control?
Just for button presses.
You could connect a classic controller or to get a snes emulator playable with all buttons mapped.
Symian version is out already...
I got this working on my N95 8gb already and it is good. The N95 has TV out too and a decent graphic chip.....runs quake GL on my tv with Wii remote as controls very well.
I would LOVE this for my ameo!
Not sure if this is portable to winmo in any way.....

Hi.
I'm looking for gamepad for playing with my Pocket PC.I try to use the hidgamep.dll but untill now it is not successful....
There is the gamepad for chainpus but seems my pocket Pc not work with it.I would like to use the PS3 sixaxis or dualchok 3.But there is probléme with them if yuo open your bluetooht and try to find this gamepad device you won't find them.I read and search on interent and found some handle.I use ubuntu ans sixpaire for change adresse (adresse of my pocket pc's bluetooth) where the bluetooth gamepad must pair and try to pair.But the trouble is the same no sony's gamepad seen...After thinking may be it is the bluetooth stack (I think mine is Microsoft) wich is weak there is may be some lake in the stack/driver...(because under ubuntu or windows you must setup/update the usb and the bluetooth drivers.So can any one help me in this project writting a driver for the sixaxis/dualshok 3 bluetooth gamepad?
I install the widcomm bluetooth stack but when I try to start the bluetooth " I get message there is not enought memory for start bluetooth"
I'm less than a beginner in program devellopement.
I think it would be great to play with this gamepad with the emulator (Gameboy advance, psone,Snes or famicom ect..)
Thank.

It's a very good idea , i'm looking for this too and no response !!!
That will verry good to play with mY HTC HD2 with a gamepad playstation 3 en Fpsece !!!!!

When pairing a new Dualshock3 with the PS3, you should recall that you must connect it via USB the first time in order for it to pair from that point on. If you try to use said controller on a different PS3, you have to connect the controller via USB once again in order to initiate pairing with the new machine, erasing the controller's tie with the original PS3. Even the PS3 does not just see it out there and connect. If this were to ever work, you would more than likely need to develop an application that allowed you to connect the controller to you phone via usb for the initial setup.
That in itself has its own problems. There are usb host drivers for certain devices, however I highly doubt it would recognize a Dualshock3 out of the box. So most likely you would need:
Modified USB host drivers
A Program to handle the USB setup of the controller itself
Probably a proprietary Bluetooth profile
Now i'm no expert on PS3 inner workings so I cant say for sure what profile you would need or if it wouldnt work with an existing supported profile. Before you cross that bridge however, I would think you'd need to at least setup the pairing through USB which is its own challenge.
Can anyone else provide more input/revise my answer?
I'm sure that plugging the PS3 remote into a PC could yield some information about how they connect it to the PS3.. an ID or something that gets changed every time maybe? I doubt you could just grab the PS3 remote, plug it in and go from there, but there has to be some kind of ID that you can associate with the controller and call from your phone to connect to it.
The sixaxis stores the address of its master and will only communicate through Bluetooth with its master.
I wrote a program (finished last Friday night) to change the master address of the sixaxis to whatever I want from a Windows PC, in this case my phone's bluetooth mac address, so now the sixaxis sees my phone as its master and is ready to communicate with it.
But that was the easy part. (Actually it wasn't easy at all, and very time consuming, but easy in comparison to the remaining tasks). Now I need to write a program that will run on the phone and read the connection attempts (and all other data) from the sixaxis and respond in a manner that the sixaxis will understand.
Anyone know of a good Bluetooth Packet Sniffer that runs on Windows Mobile?
best of luck with this Cobaltikus.... would love to see this happen!

Hi,
I try the mobile remote application but it says that there is a connection error (bluetooth have to be enable and machine paired).
So, i enable bluetooth + "visible device option" but ps3 and htc hd2 don't "see" each other in the htc bluetooth software.
Does someone tell me how I can pair ps3 and htc hd2?
Thanks
same problem with mobileremote
As posted by the developer of the MobileRemote on their support forums, the non-Microsoft Bluetooth-stack on newer HTC phones (Touch Pro2 and onwards) breaks the compatibility of MobileRemote. According to the developer there's not much he can do, other than offer a full refund to those affected.
Unfortunately I'm not aware of any other solutions for hd2 and ps3 pairing
are there any other soft bluetooth keyboards/remote controls like mobilesrc remotecontrol? I find it extremely useful and miss it a lot...
nothing new about it?
I just get an error message at the start of mobile remote on my HD2 and connecting to my pc doesnt work
So I was looking at Engadget today when I stumbled across this article. It says that someone got the N900 to play emulators with a PS3 Sixaxis controller. I have no idea about coding, I'm not a programmer. I do know that there are a bunch of talented people here at XDA and was wondering if someone would be willing to take up the challenge.
I know Android is capable of using Bluetooth in ways that weren't intended for phones (eg. The bluetooth keyboard hack), so I'm optimistic. I have a Saphire 32B, but I'm hoping this could be applied to all android phones that don't have physical keyboards. What say you XDA? Are you willing, and is it possible?
Bump. Just saw this too.
It certainly should be possible with Android.
Here is some more info on how they got it to work on the N900, involves some linux apps to pair the controller.
Maybe we can work together to crack this nut? Maybe move this topic into the more general Android Software Development thread.
Possible use cases:
1- Turn your Android into a PS3 controller (switch on PS3, menu navigation or even keyboard input)
2- Use a Bluetooth controller/keyboard on the Android (like with N900)

What I'm hoping will come out of this is number 2, as I don't own a console. As I said I'm not a coder, so this is way above my head. And it doesn't have to be a PS3 controller either. A Wii or a 360 controller would be fine, too. I just want to be able to play my NES games on my phone. (No multitouch really sucks).
still hoping and wishing for a Windows Mobile port...
Or an android port to the Touch Pro2 that has Bluetooth and Sound...

Why did you buy the Android phone then, if you're into WinMo
If you are interested in alternatives to the MSI or Chainpus BGP100 bluetooth gamepad, google search "modded by bacteria" go to the "work in progress" section of his forums, and search for the thread "Re-housed Bluetooth controller". The creator of the site, Bacteria, will be transplanting the innards of the BGP100 into an SNES controller. Previously, he has transplanted it into a PS1 controller. It seams feasible to DIY into almost any controller housing.

You misunderstood.
I didn't buy an Android phone.
There is a port of Android that runs on the Touch Pro2 but it does not have Bluetooth or TV Out. So I either need a way to connect a sixaxis to WinMo or a new port of Android for TP2 that supports TV Out and Bluetooth.
hard part is over
the sixaxis connects and sends data
now I just need to map out what to do when each button is pressed
currently works on windows mobile devices with a widcomm bt stack
I plan to make it work for the M$ stack as well but I'll have to borrow a phone with it from work cuz I don't have one any more
working on Touch Pro2 and HTC HD2 at the moment
I was so frickin happy when I finally got it to connect and send data
Nice to see progress on this. If this was on another forum it would see more activity.
Would be awesome. Especially on the mytouch. its only a matter of time

Any progress on the android Sixaxis/duelshock 3 app ??
I'm working on an Android/PS3 controller app. I have a method of changing the Bluetooth master address on the controller, but I haven't yet been able to get Android to see it. If I just knew what the controller was sending when you hit the PS3 button, I might be able to make Android listen for that.

Once the master address is set to your phone, pressing the PS button will cause the controller to send connection requests to your phone. Listen for devices, no authentication, with hid guid on psm 17 accept the connection request, then psm 19, accept that request, then write .... something can't remember... I have to go back to my code... to set the LEDs so they stop flashing and another code to tell the controller to start sending data. Once u r successful the controller constatntly sends packets of 50 bytes continuously describing the state of the controller, tilt, which buttons are down, up, etc so you just need to check for changes react accordingly. I'm handling verything on the L2CAP layer in WinMo. sending keydown and keyup events....

A few day's ago an app came out that allowes you to connect your Sixaxis to your Android Phone.
I'm unsuccessfully trying this now.
You need this app
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscompatibilitychecker
and this Tool on your pc :
http://www.dancingpixelstudios.com/sixaxiscontroller/tool.html
The Pair tool allows you to change the MAC address the controller is paired to.
And the compatibility checker allows you to see if it works, without having to pay for the full version. ( though the full version is all ready available trough other channels. )
It seems it does not work with the HD2 but perhaps my rom is to blame. I'd like to hear that this works.
Greets,

What doesnt work for you?
Im able to pair my sixaxis controller to my hd2 just fine.
However I am only able to use the controller on SNES9x emulators. Even after configuring the input of other emulators such as gba and nes, the controller doesnt work. I believe this is a bug or something.
Good to know, I'll keep trying.
My controller just keeps blinking the 4 leds and turns of after a few minutes. Per haps I should try the newer one with rumble.
I used an original sixaxis. Does pressing the PS button turn on your ps3? If not then you changed the Mac address successfully. Did you turn on Bluetooth on your phone?

Just wondering, how does your hd2 bluetooth address looked like? Is it in all number format?
i got it to work with no problem here is what you do
1- You get the programs that you need
2- Setup the controller to pair with your phone with the mac address of your bluetooth of your phone
3- Goto the program sixaxis controller and start it
4- In that same program where you start... stop..... change input method.... Click on input method and a drop down menu will show
5- Click on sixaxis controller..... Note After that you will lose your button controls but will have touch screen
6- Click Start in the same program "sixaxis control" ( look at the screen after it says connection established) if your bluetooth isnt on the it will ask to turn it on
7- Push the "PS" button on the control and it will say connected
8- Ok your phone is connected
9- Now the fun part getting the emulators to work
10- In all the emulators or the ones i use you have to make sure one setting is turned on or it will not work
11- Look for something like "enable special input device" or "use input method"
12- After that everything should work

I'm stucked here. I cant pair my controller. Everytime i change the master address, it kept changing back after i unplugged it. The red light kept flashing and wont stay. Any idea how? Maybe my controller's the problem?
Maybe the controller is the problem but I really don't see why it will not change but one thing I do know there are 2 versions of that setup program for the controller try downloading the other version and see if that works
The program for the computer that is.... I know the new version doesn't work on my computer had to use the older one
I'm still stuck at step 7, I'll download the older version of the pair tool.
The PS3 does not turn on when I push the PS button, so the old master MAC is removed
Might the new MAC 43:29:b0:00:00:00 be incompatible?

Which emulators work for you? I only got fpse and snesx9 working.
Weird. Everybody seems to have bluetooth address consisting of numbers and letters. Mine only consists of numbers. Maybe it displayed wrongly? Tried numerous ways to pair up the controller but the light just wont stay and it wont connect to my phone.
