Bluetooth game controllers - Streak 5 General

Got a few questions here. I am on rooted android 2.2. Has anyone used the zeemote or msi bgp100 gamepad with the dell streak? There are zeemote drivers on the android market and also something called gamepro drivers for android for both of those controllers but I wanted to c if anyone had them up and running on dell streak b4 I order one off the inet. Also if u have tried the zeemote or used one before will the streak fit in the middle of it? It has a clamp thing.
Next question. Ive got the wiimote connected to my streak and it is awesome to say the least but I was borrowing my roommates. I went out and got a nyko wand but it is not connecting. Has anyone tried one of these and got it working? Can u plug the classic controller into the wiimote and use that also? Can u use the wireless classic controller and does this also have to b nintendo brand? Asking cause the wiimote doesnt have enough buttons to play a lot of snes games. Asking about wireless cause it seems like a hassle to have a controller connected to a controller to play on dell streak that is also why im looking into the zeemote and msi gamepad.

I'm still waiting on my Streak. I guess I shouldn't have ordered the red one but anyway when I get it I plan on getting this:

Datel wireless wiimote.
At first I was trying to get the bgp100 msi pad but it is impossible to get as it was produced in 2005 and is apparently out of production.
But the Datel wiimote is better anyway. 20 bucks on ebay last I checked
Glad I'm not the only person thinking about using the Streak for games.

I use the wiimote with the classic attached (all original nintendo), works magic, kick ass on Street Fighter 2

Bluetooth Gamepro Gamepad - Does it work?

I read here
androidforums.com/htc-incredible/88993-gamepad-microusb-bluetooth-incredible.html
that the gamepro gamepad works with HTC incredible using their latest drivers.
Can anyone verify??
GamePro - Android Trial is the app and such
He said he used this
MSI BGP100 bluetooth gamepad.
Thanks!
Yes it works, I think he is charging a bit much though, ten dollars for a cheap ass driver?
Really? Ive been looking all over for a bluetooth gamepad solution and several other Incredible owners have told me directly the msi-bgp pad and that app do not work. We simply dont have the right bluetooth stack on our phones.
Well, mymobilegear.com/showthread.php?t=18203&page=2
The guy says he got it to work on incredible using their new beta software. Someone try it out for me? They are giving away beta keys for testing.

Zeemote for Atrix 4G

Hey guys, I was wondering if the Zeemote works with Atrix 4G.
http://www.zeemote.com/
Can anyone confirm?
No mention of Motorola on their site.... so i don't see why it would. Then again, i don't really see why anyone would want that for their phone.
For emu gaming it would be pretty usefull, specially considering multitouch is restricted to two fingers on the Atrix.
I've seen a N1 working with the zeemote, and there are some generic IME drivers out there. I was just wondering if those drivers would make it work with the Atrix.
don't bother
Hi guys I'm working on setting up a full n64, roms, and wiimote app package for xda, don't bother with ziimote, buy a 15 dollar knockoff wiimote and then get the wiimote controller app fo free. Im putting all these together in a package fr xda users, should be done before tomorrow

Xoom -- Bluetooth mouse support?

I'm curious if anyone knows when we'll get bluetooth mouse support for the Xoom. When I got my xoom it looked like mouse support was imminent, some of the threads in this forum said so. I think most people were saying that mouse support would come in an update at the end of April. Anyways, now I'm reading the forums again and some folks are saying that it may never happen.
I really need to be able to use this thing as a business tool to justify the cost, but without keyboard and mouse support, I'm not going to get there anytime soon. I'm seriously thinking about jumping ship for the Transformer, but I really like my Xoom and don't want to ditch only to discover that they're implementing the mouse support soon.
So, anyone know when/if mouse support is coming?
I'm on stock ROM; waiting to jailbreak after the LTE upgrade (and when I have more time to figure it out!).
Thanks!
Mouse support was mentioned in the announcement for the upcoming update but we have no date as to when it will be pushed, so the answer is "imminent".

So you're saying that it will definitely be implemented, the only question now is "when." Why are these companies so secretive about this stuff? I can keep this thing as a toy for a bit longer, but I really need to know how it performs as a business tool soon!
An educated guess would be within 30 days.

Hows that a trick? I have a Microsoft BT mouse working with Xoom. 3.1 brought the functionality.
Microsoft Mouse 5000 works great with mine. You have to get a mouse that has a built in pin code. The 5000 does, and some of the logitech mouses do.

That's what I mean by "marketing trick" . There is a dozen of mouses that work with 3.1 but I think Verbatim is the first to officially announce a xoom compatible mouse. Being "compatible" doesn't mean anything since that official announcement doesn't say how much compatible is it (eg. gestures).
Logitech Has It Going ON
I'm not sure what has been preceding before I place this entry. I just wanted folks to know that the Logitech V470 Bluetooth Cordless Laser Mouse for Notebooks works extremely well with my XOOM since the new update was given to us. All I had to do was put the batteries in, turn it on and hit the 'connect' button. The XOOM found it, paired and connected with it and all of the mouse's functions work just great on the XOOM. Now don't get me wrong, I love being able to use this without a mouse and keyboard - when I'm on the go. However, when I'm at my office behind my desk, I have my bluetooth keyboard & mouse and it's a joy at the job. I keep my XOOM stocked with tunes to keep me going through the day - and thanks to the new Google Music beta, my XOOM is working overtime. If nothing else ever gets fixed with these, I'm already happy. Thanks to the devs here at XDA, my SD card works and now I have all the other parts functioning.
Usb mouse works. Tried last night

works beautiful with the magic mouse
I just ran across this post so I thought I'd give the mouse thing a try. Afterall, it's a great idea. So... I have a bluetooth mouse that I bought with the accessory kit for the Motorola Atrix phone (motorola bluetooth keyboard and mouse). I successfully paired and used both the keyboard and the mouse. Works great! Other bluetooth keyboards and mice should work also. This may be old news, but that's my two cents.
I have a MS Bluetooth mouse and keyboard.
Mouse: Lasermouse 8000
Keyboard: Entertainment Keyboard 7000
Both work great.

Possible to use USB game controllers?

Since the Iconia has a functional USB port I'm wondering if it is possible to plug in a USB game controller and use it to play on SNESoid or the like? Anyone want to test this out?

I think at the moment game controllers are not supported by honeycomb but I know when Ice Cream Sandwich comes out, game controllers will be supported from the get go.
You can try to use the Wiimote though and hopefully that will hold you out till October/Whenever it is released by Acer.
I will test later...i did not even come up with this idea.
nice idea btw !!! would be nice if it worked.
3.1 is supposed to add support for a lot of these, right?

You are correct sir
Well basically that means you will be able to connect extra hardware to your Honeycomb device and use it via USB slots. While this wasn't solely geared towards gaming on your Honeycomb device, gaming will see a big benefit from it. Essentially, you'll be able to connect your XBox 360 and other controllers to your device and play your games using it. Great if you don't have or don't want an Xperia Play. -http://tinyurl.com/droidgamer

Please Acer unlock our bootloaders!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yup, I read that 3.1 will add support for 360 wired controllers. Now I just need N64oid to come back on the market, dammit.
3.1 does add support, though each app will need dev updates to support input from the controllers. There are some xooms at bby where I work and I tested it there with an xbox 360 wired controller and n64oid. B-e-a utiful!

[looking for dev] An App that emulates touch input to physical buttons!

Hi guys
So I'm a proud owner of the iControlPad (http://www.icontrolpad.com/) and its a totally awesome device already working very good through an App called BluezIME.
Anyway in the ICP forums there is this Thread about an iphone App called Blutrol.
Here's a link with some info about it:
http://www.ringwald.ch/cydia/blutrol/
Now what this app does, is simulating touch input. So if you hit a button on the gamepad, it's like you would hit the touchscreen in a specific place (configurable). Thus making real Gamepad controls compatible with many many games in the market (there are still some limitations).
I think this would be great on Android. There are lots of different gamepads out already, and many companies are advertising the Gamepad compatibility of their devices like the Asus Transformer Prime.
Sadly i have no idea how to port/develop something like that but I'd definately pay for it!
Sixaxis controller.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
yeah, sixaxis controler is what you are looking for. you can also download mappings for many popular gamer here on xda ready to play
Thx for your replies. I checked out the app, but as i understand it its strictly for use with the sixaxis controller. I was looking for something a bit more "universal" so i can map buttons from any bluetooth controller including the ICP.
It would be cool to be able to map android keyboard input to the touchscreen. Because then its automatically possible to use several devices that use keyboard input. Not sure if this is possible with the sixaxis app.
And i'm not really prepared to buy a ps3 controller because i dont own a ps3
Lol yeah u should try contacting them. See how they did it etc
Sent from my good old Galaxy S II. Hit thx if u think i helped and may the force be with u.
Still looking
I agree that this would be great! Sorry to dig up an old thread, but anybody seen anything like this yet? I'm hoping to use it with the Impulse Controller I just backed on Kickstarter...
There is an app now for this, its universal and supports keyboard mouse and virtually anything else, its called USB/BT joystick center 7 it is 5 bucks and slightly confusing to use, but it does work.
