Hello All
I have got a very useful Idea especially for gamers
is it possible to let the XPERIA Play to act like a PS3 Controller ???
It would be amazing if possible! ,, especially that the Play keypad is same as the ps3 controller
only 2 buttons not there .. "R2 , L2"

The Connection can be made via WiFi
Any Interest ?

Theory:
- Broadcasting the PS3's screen to the Xperia play using Wifi
- Using the Xperia as a controller
- Bind the L2 / R2 keys to the music volume buttons or on screen-buttons.
Conclusion: Ability to play PS3 games on the xperia play when you are in possesion of a PS3 = PROFIT !
This would be amazing, but is it possible?

That would be really cool !
One thing I hated about the play was that it didnt have HDMI out like the Arc Would of been perfect for gaming since you had hardware controls.

I second that to bad there is not a HDMI out port to game on the bigscreen like the arc but I think they ran out of space to put it in I guess haha
Nah I think it has other reasons that only SE will clarify

You can do it with psp:

Could this possibly be ported to android for the play? Maybe..
Thanks For Everybody who shown his interest into this!

mmm..
The "Broadcasting the PS3's screen to the Xperia play using Wifi" is a little bit hard ,, so let it be in the future
"- Using the Xperia as a controller"
Is already the target of this thread and I think it's not a hard job!
You won't even need a screen on the app ,, for example you launch the app
a black background is on screen and controllers shown on ,, Just that's it !
It just need the mapping thing
"- Bind the L2 / R2 keys to the music volume buttons"
That's an Awesome idea !
Thanks alot !
Will Post it into the Original Thread
Thanks again
Let's not forget the L3 and R3 buttons....
Sent from my Samsung Fascinate, bro.
Would it not be bluetooth as thats what the exsisting controllers use?
Sent from my R800i using XDA App
A quick double tap on the touch pads could be l3/r3, maybe use the screen for l2/r2 if you need a certain sensitivity?
I cant see why this cant be done as i have a nokia n900 which you can use the touchscreen as a pad and have the keyboard working aswell so you can bind some of the keys to the keyboard to make it easier. with most of the button in your hand anyway maybe l3 and r3 which dont get used much could be placed on the touchscreen.

actually ,, I never knew which kind of connection is between the controller and the receiver
At all , Wireless connection will be better ,, if we want the app to be extended ,, to be like more than a controller
Such as Broadcasting the PS3's screen to the Xperia play
But at first it's better to be bluetooth and then will think about wifi and broadcasting
Thanks for the point

Waiting For Developers To Put This on their wishlist !
Or even start working on it from now
Well, you don;t have to wait idle. You could start searching for info to help any dev that might read this on his way. What sort of data the PS3 needs from the controller, a guide on how to code for the touchpad (since only a few devs know how to do that atm, intel is at SE developpers site).

I know my friend
I have been searching yesterday for this ,, but unfortunately I didn't find anything :|
The Nokia N900 can control the PS3 via a Remote Emulator
I guess we may need help from an experienced Symbian Developers so they may figure out which type of Data is sent from the phone to act like a controller
Any Experienced Symbian Developer here to help ??
Once Root is available, BlueputDroid should make Xperia play work as a Controller.
Not sure if this is useful or not, but I found that the PS3 uses the L2CAP bluetooth profile, and if i remember correctly android doesnt support this by default, so thats something to consider I guess.
Seriously though, this would be a fantastic application to have, and I hope a smart dev sees this thread

Great ! Thank You
here is the link for the Official App Thread
I am very confident that this is already possible if not then very soon.
Anyone that has a PSP knows about remote play. Sony even said it will expand it to cellphones.
Remoteplay is exactly what you said above. Over wifi it uses the PSP screen as a monitor and the buttons as controls.
You can even remote play to a PC.
I will look into this more but I think one of the sony cellphones can already do this.

Having a Universal with Bluetooth Stereo and Remote Control is excellent - but previously I was stuck with Windows Media Player, which as a music player, should really be taken out and shot.
I emailed both the creators of Pocket Music and Pocket Player, two excellent music players, but without A2DP and AVCRP support.
The Pocket Player people just got back to me, and supplied a DLL file which gives their player full bluetooth stereo support.

Strange, certainly works for me. I found sometimes, even in WMP, that it takes you to next or prev, or even tap the pause button on the main screen to get it working "initially".... then it's fine. Haven't had similar probs with Pocket Player yet....
Not working for me
I copied the DLL file in the Pocket Player's directory, itself in the Plugins section as WM Plugin adapter, if configured, one can also enable WM plugins to load. but the AVRCP is still not working for me.
I am using AnyCom headsets, they work with MediaPlayer and PocketMusic
I tried all buttons.

Tried your method. I can PAUSE by tapping the screen and re-start by pressing the PLAY button on my headphone but cannot PAUSE the music using my headphone button

AVRCP does not work when my QTEK 9000 (aka Universal) is closed i.e. NEXT/PREVIOUS does not work

Must say, never tried that - I keep the thing opened in a little Lowpro holder attached to the front of my rucksakc when I'm walking. I'm never walking without my trusty rucksack....

I have to be honest - when I emailed them initially with a fault description, I was only concerned with the Universal, so I'm not sure if they only gave me a DLL for Universals.... if it works on other devices or not, I'm not sure. But if not, email them, and I'mk sure they'll get a fix out.

the xperia has a special version of skype, wich uses the internal speaker, however, installing it on any other device is not a problem, only when running it, it says that it's not compatible with this device..... so only for xperia.
Jep, Skype is working.
Bad sadly, as usual on Windows Phones, only with Loudspeaker not with Earpiece.

run attachment and all sounds will be in ear speaker. Solution for me to talk via Skype.
It's brill on the HD2. Miles better than what I remember on the iPhone. You can actually keep it running in the background
and it works with the bluetooth headset.

You run it... the leave it open and open Skype. All audio is then routed through the earpiece. You speak like you would on a normal phone.
Running skype alone without this would mean needing to use BT headphones or the headset or sound comes from the loudspeaker... THis app is extremely useful if you use Skype!!
i have the same problem on HD2, this sounds like a solution, i will try it. thanks for the file. otherwise i might just use the headset came with it.
chimpsinties,
Is this your GPRS Monitor capable of showing GSM RF related parameters like Field Test? Where did you download it? Is it capable of Monitoring UMTS too?
and a few more things with Skype:
#1
I have S2S lock and I like it as many times I forget to lock my phone, but it kicks during a Skype call and kills audio... dont want to disable S2S, nor want to put my phone on charger.
There is a option in Skype's Menu/Setting, namely "Prevent device stand-by mode when online". Changing this parameter does not seem to make any difference...
#2
How can I get Skype to remember my password? However I dont want Skype to start up automatically
#3
auto change between landscape and portrait modes based on G-sensor is possible somehow?
thanks!

The GPRS traffic monitor has the following options that are not configurable. You can select between what's there but you can't add more yourself. I guess it auto detects what's available cos when I had the TMobile shim in it knew to look for that connection instead. This is just a trial version but does what I need it so I've not looked into what the pro version gets you.

You just select the connections you want to monitor and what your limit is, when your billing date is.
Then it lets you know how much you've used that day/month/total etc

Thank so much for the file,, it worked very well with my HD2
All credit goes to DrSadistic for finding this hack...

So, u want to know how to get $8,000,000 in Need For Speed Shift for Android...
This is what you will need..

2.Hex Software
3.Computer
Here are the steps,
now connect ur phone to usb and enable usb mass storage..
and browse this folder SD\Android\data\com.ideaworks3d.nfsshift\files
there u will see a file called gamedata, copy that to ur desktop

Now Open up the file in a hex editing software
then use the goto function usually available in the edit menu..
and enter the value 52 and press ok
now replace the values present in those locations with 7A 12
save the file.
replace the modified file with the one present in sd data
now u got good money to buy cars and upgrades
Wow thanks for sharing
Nice tutorial
I wonder other game's save data could be edited like this..
For alternative you can use GameCIH from market, that also nice
games is boring and not challenging with these hacks, anyway, ive finished the game long before with no hacks, all cars and upgrades

How do you get NFS to work anyway?! After the EA splash screen it just closes to my homescreen.

Yeah!! If you want to enjoy the game, no hacks should be applied.
hahaha ty for the cheat!
lol seriously, the game is easy enough even without cheats(except for those drifting levels), but it's a nice find nevertheless. Anyways, since you guys are into these kind of stuff, I'll share a minor game glitch that I have discovered to beat the game(even by using a 1st tiered car the whole game).
On bends(specially hard curves), physics has declared that the faster you are, the harder it is to turn and vice versa. Well in NFS this is not the case, on a hard turn press nitro just when you're about to get derailed(under steer) and marvel at how your car gets right back on track. Do this successfully on each bend and you could beat any car with a 1 minute lead easily.
Damn ppl copy pasting the hack from here to other sites...
thanks ccdreadcc for the information about the file!
but why you take "7A 12" ?
i tried... then i have 31250 credits... thats dezimal for "7a 12"
i use "FF FF FF". now i have over 16000000 credits
does anyone know which values to change my stars count? i suck at drifting and without the stars from those rounds i cant get past Tokyo-1.
same problem.
i try to find it.... i hope i have good news in about hours
edit
earned 2 more "stars" in non-drift
now i have two extracted savegames on my pc.
i have to find the two stars difference in gamedata.
but no more time for today :/
i tell you if i have a method for editing "stars".

Hello
As you know, locked SEMC Android devices now can be unlocked by SETool software.
The adventages of SETool unlocking:
Unlock SIM for any carrier
Unlock Bootloader and enable fastboot without mess with DRM data (SEUS updates still works)
Easy testpoint process no need disassembly the phone. Just need a piece of wire for a bridge.
You need to know that SETool is a paid software and needs a special hardware (dongle) to be able to use, also even if you have the SETool dongle you need to buy 5 SETool server credits to unlock Android phones.
I can offer to anyone who wants to unlock the bootloader & sim and don't have SETool box my dongle to connect remotely so you don't need to buy any special and expensive hardware.
ALL PROCESS ITS MADE BY ME VIA REMOTE CONTROL, YOU ONLY NEED TO ATTACH AND DETACH THE PHONE WHEN NEEDED
Please contact me via PM if you are interested.
Otherwise if you have SETool box you can follow the next guide to unlock your bootloader by yourself.
Greetings

The unlocking process is easy to do.
First, after install USB Flash drivers, same as flashtool and select corect settings on setool just click on Unlock/Repair button and connect the phone in flash mode (with back key pressed)
Second, this message will appear:
DETACH USB CABLE FROM PHONE
REMOVE BATTERY FROM PHONE
ATTACH TESTPOINT
PRESS "READY", THEN ATTACH USB CABLE TO PHONE
Now we detach the cable and remove the battery and attach the testpoint with a piece of wire like in this pictures:
Now hold on the testpoint and connect the cable to the phone again and press ready on SETool, a new hardware will be detected. Install the drivers.
When you see:
PROCESSING ...
REMOVE TESTPOINT NOW, THEN PRESS "READY"
release the testpoint bridge and if you want remove the wire from negative pin and press READY button and you will see this:
PLEASE ATTACH TURNED OFF PHONE NOW

Can anyone confirms this works with the Play? the test point on the Play looks to be in a different place as there is no sticker and the sd card is right next to the sim slot on the Play?

I know but i'm trying to run the software now but it just gives an error, what dongle is needed?
Is there any clearer instructions anywhere as it doesn't say the exact setup, what the teamviewer software and usb-over-network-client is for, what do we do with them?

No, it clearly says at the top that it's done remotely via software.
Going to give this a shot in the morning. Alejandrissimo, could you clarify the bit about the testpoint? From what I'm seeing, you're just connecting two contacts. Why would I need a wire for this as opposed to say... a screwdriver?

dongle for setool is provided remotely.
you need wire because you have to connect both gnd and testpoint.
tp on play is under the sticker under battery.

Blagus, is this the same method you were working on for unlocking simlocked Plays?
The SETool software won't open for me, just says "smartcard error" any ideas?
Also, what are the "credits" for? do you have to pay?

Yes, same method, but without dongle, only credits and USB cable.

Do you know where we can buy credits in bundles of less than 30 or will one person have to buy 30 and sell the surplus?
For those wondering, 30 credits works out at about 90 USD or 15 USD for an unlock if you can buy 5.
I am open to correction.
Op you deserve thanks for you offer. I'm sure there are plenty around who wouldn't do the same.

What you think, is it possible?
I'm not a dev but I will enjoy having it on my Z1C

You're our main dev for Z1C, anything would become possible if you contribute in it

Of course it's possible. It might even be easy because the manifacturer of the phones is the same and they have a really similar hardware. In order to port Z3C ROM to our Z1C we have to:
1 Extract system from Z3C FTF.
2 Deodex it (advisable).
3 Edit build.prop so that it matches our proprieties.
4 Replace their kernel and modules with ours.
5 Replace their system/lib/hw and system/lib/egl with ours.
If we are lucky enough we'll get a booting ROM, otherwise we'll have to debug it.
At the moment I think to have neither the time nor the experience to do it, but maybe I can help.
I wish good luck to everyone who tries to port it! :victory:
Anybody here have colected diferencie in hardware between Z1C and Z3C ? Only I have found is procesor is diferent (new model), not searched for other things. What is diferent there?

Agree with 1,2,3,4 but about 5. I am not sure. Why egl and hw? Is not video card and sensors the same?

About egl I'm not sure: their gpu is an Adreno 330 but is clocked at a higher frequency. If I'm not wrong, hw directory also contains libraries that rely on the processor that is not the same.
Z3 Compact Russian ROM is available for download.... :smile:

Hm, you are right, we will need to replace gralloc and other things, probably cam libs will not work too, and allso probably sensors too since diferent digitizer... etc.
Maybe we can port some smalis at least. Anybody know what is new feature in z3c rom which not exist on z1c?

ps4 remote play
ultra stamina mode
stereo speakers
tap to wake
noob question but couldn't we just use the porting method for z1 roms ?
I've heard the z1 compact don't have this module for tab 2 wake like the normal z1. That's why there's till now no tab 2 wake feature.. I miss this feature so much..
Apps like gravity are great but not the same..
Pardon me for diverting the topic but could anyone port One Plus One's CM11S for our beloved Z1c? pretty please

Tab2wake is a feature (from lg) :
When screen is off you just tab onto the display and the screen goes on. (No button needed.. )
That's why it calls Tab2wake
Anybody have idea do we have kernel events from touch screen while device screen is off? If we have events than thats an easy thing making tap2wake trought kernel module
I trying now to make feature "disable pc usb charging" and I have done userspace program for that but need to make chech box preference in settings menu which will execute userspace program every time when usb is connected | disconnected, need help to finish them! I have no idea what is a name of function in smali for checking for usb connection? Anybody have idea? Here is userspace program which will disable/enable charging when pc usb is connected/disconnected, my whole idea is to make userspace program executed every time when usb is connected (one time executed) or disconnected (one time executed). Need help locating smali where I can put call to userspace program! The rest is easy (check box preference ...etc).

Tune in with an audio powerhouse
The mobile music experience just got re-invented. Sony’s rich audio expertise comes through in every beat with incredible High-Resolution Audio, so you can hear every track just as the artist intended when using Hi-Res Audio headphones such as Sony’s new MDR-1A range. For those tracks that aren’t in Hi-Res quality, Sony’s ground-breaking DSEE HX technology – available now for the first time in our Z3 series – ‘upscales’ the fidelity of your MP3 or AAC music collection as well as your playlists on Sony’s cloud-based digital music service, Music Unlimited8, to near High-Resolution quality.
To enjoy your favourite music without interruption, the Xperia Z3 series brings Sony’s Digital Noise Cancelling technology to the smartphone. Ambient noise is reduced by up to 98% when paired with the MDR-NC31EM Digital Noise Cancelling headset – perfect for that busy commute or tuning out the background in a noisy office.
The front-facing stereo speakers with S-Force Front Surround™ play everything loud and crystal clear for those moments when you want to set your sounds free.
tap to wake was ported to z1 with kernel mods link bellow. i think i read somewhere that the z1 compact screen wont be able to use this feature
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2699803
also i tested z3 setting on my phone i seen a option for Intelligent backlight (the screen stays on while you are looking at it
The touchscreen from z 1 compact does not support the hardware-side wake-up gesture mode. Z1 and z ultra do support it. That's our problem.
Considering that most of the new features in Z3c rely on different hardware - stupid question: what is the point of porting the ROM to Z1c?
