Hi, I was wondering if there is, has been, or an app in development for android to use the phone as a wireless gaming receiver? Like use the phone as a receiver to connect it with a wireless Xbox 360 controller to play games on the PC. Thanks!

I'm not sure if this is what you are asking for, but I use this program: http://www.frankiesoft.com.ar/
Thanks for the find! I might use that app because I just want to use a substitute for my joystick to play Flight Simulator X because I can't find it. What I'm looking for is an app that can function as this: http://www.microsoft.com/games/en-U...es/XboxWirelessGamingReceiverforWindows.aspx/

So basically what you want to do is to connect your xbox 360 controller to your pc through your android powered phone? if so, i'm sorry to tell you that this is not possible, yet.
Can you just get a wired controller and plug it in? I know that costs more money, but it would work...
just curious if anyone has done it or its possible so you can play multiplayer
I'm pretty sure it will work as long as you get a USB hub. The tablet is supposed to be compatible with multiple HIDs like a keyboard and mouse, so I don't see why 2 controllers would be any different.
Make sure you have a powered usb hub......(I haven't tried it yet but still feel it would work......non powered has less possibilities)

So did u ever figure out how to use two controllers simultaneously? If so what game did they work on or with which app

That's my question. The only multiplayer game I've ever used where two people touch the screen is glow hockey. Maybe the OP just assumed multiplayer action games would be like co-op on a console.
If you use a splitter you can connect 2 controllers, works withe SNES emulator.

Umm. Sixaxis controller supports more than one controller now. Add the ps3pairingtool and voila, 2 dualshocks connected wirelessly to ur acer through bluetooth on separate channels. Connect each controller via usb with ps3pairingtool, then wirelessly through sixaxis controller.

I borrowed this from the Atrix Thread.
All credit and thanks for this find should goto chaosjh here.
The A500 is compatible and seems to work fine. I've downloaded it and gave it a try in FPse. I'll try it out with some emulated Mario to see if I notice the same lag I do when using a Wii remote in SNES9x EX, but I have to go to work.
Edit: Now I went through this quickly, but am I correct in thinking that this requires a PC in order to reslave the Sixaxis to a new device?
Only needed if you want to use Bluetooth, as the sixaxis works fine wired using 3.1.

The issue I have when I use it wired is that the Start button always brings up the home screen. That means I can't map anything in games to Start.
This works fine on my phone, a friend recommended it.
However, I cannot get it to work on my iconia a500. I made sure that the controller is using the same bluetooth mapping, and when I turn it on, it definitely syncs with the iconia (the controller goes to port 1, and when i turn bluetooth off on the iconia, the controller turns off), however, the program never shows "Client Connected: 1" like it does on my phone. Ive changed the input type to Sixaxis, bluetooth IS enabled, the phone IS rooted and the controller technically does sync with the tab, but it doesnt load in the program.
Any ideas? Anyone else run into this.

Do you have a 2nd controller to test it with?
ICONIA have native wired compatibility.. why actuallyy u need this ?
Make sure you're not running the Compatibility Checker app in the background (i.e. be sure to stop the compatibility checker before starting the main app.

Hook your Iconia up to the TV via HDMI, put it down on the TV stand so it's not in danger of being tripped over and game from your couch. Totally worth the cost of a soft drink to me.

Absolutely agree. Using this app on my TF, plugged into AC/HDMI and can play from 15 feet away on my couch. Absolutely worth 2 clams.

I just brought my pad over to my friends house hooked it up to their TV and played some SNES Secret of Mana and NBA Jam. Totally worth it!

love it!
I totally picked this up in an instant... going wireless is so much better, and the keys are remappable, so in that way it's better than what you get using it over USB. Plus this way I can put all of those huge PS1 roms on my new 32GB USB stick and not have to worry about having no port left for the controller. Also enjoyed playing Cordy console-style with the tab hooked up to the TV and using the DS3... the beginning of the future is here, my friends.

In this case we used some Wii remote as well as I've only set up one Sixaxis with the pad. I'll test out 2 Sixaxis eventually.
So I tested connecting to controllers. The app will recognize them and the corresponding lights with light up on them. Unfortunately I couldn't use more than one on SNES9X EX because it can't set two player inputs to be "keyboard."
I also tested it on FPse for PS1 emulation. I was able to map the buttons on both controllers but then I tried to use the second one in Tekken 3 it spazzed out like crazy. I don't know if that was an issue with the Sixaxis app or the emulator.
Edit: I just experienced a random restart of my tablet while using this app in SNES9x EX. I'm not sure if this was an issue with the Sixaxis app, HDMI out, or something else but I lost over an hour of Bahamut Lagoon and have to repeat an entire battle.
hell i went and bought a ps3 controller cause i dont own a ps3. but i love using the ps3 controller over the wiimote any day. lol is it wrong to charge my ps3 controller with my xbox? bahahaha
this app is great and its very easy to set up, just like the wiimote controller app but one more step
So i could use the controller to play sayyyy Dungeon Hunter 2 or N.O.V.A or is it only for Emulators?

You can use it to play anything that can recognize keyboard inputs.

knew about this but didn't realize we could simply use the usb cable... i need to just try things more often.
do the analog sticks work for n64oid or fpsce?
I have been following various threads on the Onlivefans.com forum about using an Android device to play Onlive games and mapping hardware buttons to software controls. None are perfect and do not play the games I would like. Now the Sony Tablet S is compatible with Onlive using a real PS3 controller. The Sony Tablet S is a Playstation Certified tablet. What would I have to modify on my Nook Color to make it think it is a Tablet S? I already have Sixaxis Controller app to allow bluetooth connectivity to my PS3 controller and it works great for all my emulators. I am really hoping this will let me avoid a $50 purchase of Onlive's official Universal Controller.
Thoughts? Ideas? Thanks in advance.
could you clarify what you mean when you say bluetooth works fine? I was under the impression that book's bt radio was too weak to even keyboard properly?
there are apps on market that allow you to spoof other devices but if it is a hardware or driver limitation you might be able to usb joystick it
The bluetooth has worked great with my PS3 controller. I have used it up to 3 feet away with no issue. I have not tried to use two controllers at once but it seems technically possible.
I guess my real question is, does anyone have a build.prop from a Sony Tablet S and I will try asking in one of those forums.
The PS3 controller works a little bit while using OnLive but they do not allow you to map keys. They want you to use their controller only.

The sixaxis app says it lets you connect four controller but the nook apparently only recognizes one at a time.
Has anyone done this yet? I'm running ICS Stunner and it recognises but dosnt work. Any way of fixing this or another rom that supports? I've tried the usb/bt connect app also no joy. Want to use it with Onlive mainly. Any help much appreciated

What are you actually trying to do?
playing games using XBOX360 on NOTE? if you will be able to do that then that's great! but I guess that's close to impossible
You can play xbox 360 games on Android. The cloud gaming app Onlive let's u do this, they've added touch screen support for a couple of xbox games and it supports an xbox 360 controller through usb otg to play the games they haven't added touch screen for but in order to do that ur phone needs to support using the controller, there's an app for it if your rom/kernel supports it. Apparently ISC does but I can't get it working. It sees the controller and knows it's there but won't use it. People have done it but I can't find out out and I don't fancy trying all the roms to see which ones do :/

Xbox controller doesn't work for me.
WiiMotes via bluetooth and PS3 controllers via USB OTG working perfectly however.
