[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eksasol:
Just a word of warning you need to make sure your device is compatible. Even if it is, it might work with some app and not another.

There are some bluetooth controller to consider though like: Zeemote, MSI Gamepad, Wii controller (which seems to be the safe bet.)

Sometime you need to run a background 'keyboard' app to make some of these controller work, such as Bluez IME.

I have the iControlPad, but it only work with apps that support keyboard input, through the use of Bluez IME. The most fullproof way for me is still wired controller.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] idan_mo:
I'm dealing with the issue right now.

I use sixaxis for my PS3 controller but it seems there is lack of supported games.

I think trying FPse for it.

I've also Logitech gamepad (F710) and like you I'd love to see supported games beside FPse.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sir_earl:
Give me a few days and this should become a reality with the Sixaxis controller ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
Honeycomb and ICS have native support for gamepads so they should work throughout the OS and games.

I have a PS3 controller on my Transformer and I also have the Wii Retro controller. The Retro controller sucks horribly compared to the PS3 controller. Plus they all connect via Bluetooth so any controller will act the same unless it comes with a specific binding app.

I don't have a Nexus but I think the PS3 controller is the way to go. I picked up a new white one at Gamestop for $29.

Datel makes the Retro wireless controller.

G2x - 2.3.7 CM7

Transformer - 3.2 Revolver OC/UV
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] idan_mo:
I've done it.

Sixaxis with PS3 controller plus MHL to see it on my LCD TV.

Works great! But only in emulators like FPse (the emulator I've test).

I'll wait to the OTG cable and see if I can play with the gamepad on any game (which is not related to FPse).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lionheart7282:
do i need ROOT for all of this that you guys are talking about? i want to use the original ps3 controller to play games in my galaxy nexus but i totally don't want to root, please help, i don't care if i have to use cable or Bluetooth.

[EVO 4G General] the.emilio:
Semi new to the forums. Usually lurked around, downloaded roms and stuff and just stayed quiet. Basically just trying to get my post count up so I can finally reply in the evo 4g dev section lol... not gonna lie about that. SO how is everyone and what do you like about the evo. Best rom/kernel combo and why?
[EVO 4G General] sitlet:
As everyone will tell you, there is no "best rom/kernal" combo. Every single evo is different with theh way it handles roms and kernals, so you will just have to try out a few combos for yourself.
[EVO 4G General] RascalDoc:
I need the 10 count also ... so here's a bump for ya

---------- Post added at 03:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:39 PM ----------

One more bump.:p

---------- Post added at 04:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:46 PM ----------

I tried CM7 first, it was smooth and easy to set up. Nothing special about the ROM. Then I tried Destroyer v.2 and it was amazing. Easy set uand p very fast. Never messed with the kernel in either. I have a nandroid of Destroyer v.2 saved for my back up (which has saved me a couple times already). Then I heard about Boot Manager which allows you to have 5 roms on the same phone!!! :eek: I had to try it. First thing I tried was loading evo-dec on the slot, and turned my phone into a brick at Publix. Panic set in. Managed to restore the Destroyer v.2 and found out evo-deck doesn't work with boot mamanger ...:o ... I should have read the notes. Tried Miui, loved it, for a week, and tied flashing new kernel, tiamat 4.1, did not work. SOOOOOO as I hate giving up 4g, which MIUI does NOT have and never will, I am trying Evo-Deck 1.1.3 (I think), his latest, with the stock kernel. So far, so good. SMOOTH and fast. I've done all this for space on my phone, and battery life. All of them improved me over stock. All of this in the last month. :o Now if I can just find a 12 step program for flashaholics, I'm good :D That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
[General Questions and Answers] menyanthe:
Hello!

Two days ago I rooted my phone thanks to this forum. Everything was alright at first, but then I deleted some applications and I think one of them is causing the issue - probably Google Quick Search Box, or some other Google application (deleted a few that seemed innocent enough). I deleted also Facebook, Youtube and Twitter application (all of these were using the internet when the Internet is on and I didn't like it because it is spending me money - that's the reason I ended up rooting my phone).

The problem is when I try to add a new contact or access a new one, I see the android.process.acore ended unexpectedly error. I can see this error also when I do some other applications (Talk for example - not that I need it, just for information). Also, I cannot access the Market application - shows white screen for a second or two and then hides away.

I tried unrooting my phone, removing the battery and sd card out and then putting them in again, doing a hard reset through the buttons (I can't access the Privacy menu on settings also - same error).

I tried updating the software through LG PC Suite, but of course, I got: You have the newest version, update is not required. And of course there is no repair option, which is dumb, but who asks me. :)

Anyway, if I add some apk files to my sd card through the PC is there any way I could instal them on the LG Optimus Me phone? Since I wiped out my phone and have no access to Market (tried openning it through Browser and then logging in, selecting an application and click on Instal button - nothing happens), I don't have for example a Root explorer or some other type of exploring application on my phone, nor I have a Barcode scanner application.

Any ideas??

Some new info, thanks to my husband's Samsung Galaxy Gio, through bluetooth succeded to install Astro File Manager. Now I have access to the sd card. Now I am going to try to find what should be on the android 2.2.2 by default and install it. Hope this would work.

Just to say - still haven't solved the issue with the phone, but I tend to go around it. Hope I will find a solution one day, though.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] fad25:
please, how i can support arabic language in Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07.1 (rhod100)??
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
http://ardoid.com/

It's been asked before, this is the answer. However, this is for native Android devices, and I'm not sure anyone figured out how to get it working on our port. I never did figure it out, but I'm far from an expert on this stuff.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] GFX:
Here's how it worked for me: (Originally provided here)

1 - Download the "libskia.rar" attached to this post.

2 - You will need the latest version of a program called "Root Explorer" (tested with 2.17.1). Download and install it on your device, and don't forget to give it superuser permissions when you run it for the first time.

3 - Extract the "libskia.so" file from the package, and copy it to the "system/lib" folder on your device using Root Explorer. Use the "mount r/w" button to give the program permission to overwrite the file.

4 - Android should restart itself automatically when you copy the file. If it doesn't, restart Android manually. Your device now shows Arabic letters correctly.

The only problem with this method is that it doesn't solve the RTL text direction problem, but it is indeed a very acceptable solution that enables you to use Android for daily use.

Try it and tell us what happens. It worked for me using FRX07.1.

Oh, and arrrghhh, thank you for your devotion and efforts to bring Android to the Tilt2. Why don't you mention this method in the FAQ so that it could be found more easily by FRX07 users? And best of luck with the GBX01 effort! :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
np, and glad someone made an easy guide.

Can you make one change? Can you actually attach the files instead of linking to another site? Thanks.

I will consider adding it to the FAQ, but honestly this question has only been asked maybe 2-3x in the 2 years I've been involved in this project... not a very 'frequently' asked question is my point :p.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] شیرخدا:
Sorry for reviving a dead thread but I just wanted to know is XDAndroid deodexed or odexed, I have searched and at a guess I would say it is deodexed but I haven't found anything that gives me certainty so if anyone could answer I would be grateful.

Thanks in advanced

Just before anyone says what does this have to do with Arabic I have found this site (http://blog.devasque.com/) that seems to have a method that works across the board so I just wanted to give it a try. I will post my results

Also the method posted above is ok but it seemed to mess up my English documents.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
It's AOSP... so I guess odexed? I honestly have no clue.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] شیرخدا:
Arrrghhh, as you weren’t sure I thought I’d give it a go any way and after a lot of testing I found that it works so I’m guessing the rom is deodexed.

My findings, the latest patch to work on both the GB0C and FRX07.1 builds is 0.789 anything after that seems to cause either boot loops or freezes.

Also it seems to work very well with both the direction being correct and the letter displaying correctly joined.

So if anyone wants Arabic this seems like a good option, all you have to do is:

Download the 0.789 patch from http://blog.devasque.com/how-to-apply-patch/ and extract it.

Then copy the framework.jar file from the system/framework folder on your phone to the framework folder in the patch folder, after that run command.exe and follow the instructions. After it finishes you will find a new framework.jar in the generated folder just replace your old file with the new one and reboot and hopefully you should see all the Arabic and like fonts displayed correctly.

There are instructions on the site but they are for the newest patches, the instructions I have posted are from what I did with this older version they are very similar just some minor folder name changes and less files to be converted.

Just like to say all the credit goes to Madmack and the people that have worked with him.

To find the .apk, just download one of the AT&T Roms and extract it from there using win zip or 7zip. The iPhone have VVoicemail so Rogers has the system in place...just hope the .apk doesn't rely on anything else on the phone to work (connect) with the Rogers network.

thank you to anyone who even attempts to answer this question and im excited to join the forums
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
Shouldn't be as long as you still have your line active. There has been debate on whether or not you need to keep data active but it sounds like you are planning on keeping data and just losing hotspot so you should be fine.

Was the $100 Amazon gift card offer still on if you activated your line with hotspot? I got that and so I'm keeping my hotspot through one billing cycle to make sure I get the gift card.

You should really read this thread, I'm pretty sure this was discussed there.

Can/should I flash in this order -> Odin stock 2.1 -> flash 2.2 ->..MiUi... then V5 or

should I Odin 2.1 then MiUi.. then flash an earlier version like V1 or V4 -> then V5 ???

ALSO... I'm currently on a GB Bootloader.. do I need to flash the Froyo Bootloader to Flash MiUi (does it matter after Odin stock ?) or can I ignore bootloader issue for the whole process.

I'm gonna complete wipe/format etc so no worries about that I don't mind taking the loong way if necessary I've got all day and tomorrow

just need to know how I should go about this 'preciate any response... thanks in advance
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radiohd:
For those who AREN'T coming from CM7/MIUI:

Reboot in recovery (CWM)

Wipe Data/ Factory Reset.

Format SYSTEM from Mounts and Storage.

Flash the file.

It will most probably go in boot loop due to CWM version mismatch.

Remove battery. Insert it.

Press Vol Down + Home + Long press power till Gingerbread bootloader appears and vanish

(or press Vol Down + Vol Up + Long press power till Froyo bootloader appears and vanish)

You will enter in CWM mode, if not do repeat above two steps

Now follow instructions of CM7/MIUI.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Absolut2020:
smh... so I took this ^ to mean I should flash the 2.2 rom before MiUi....and after about 20 something failed attempts to get into recovery I went back to stock (through ODIN and it was a B***H to find the TAR file for that btw) anyway..

finally got the ICS Passion running by going from stock to MiUI to ICS

nice rom so far...I'm still trying to figure out how to get my WIFI to work

I flashed the KB5 modem over but no go so far..haven't figured it out yet..

I'm just posting this for any noobs out there that might come across the same issues I had coming from the Simply Stock 2.3.5 rom

no complaints. 'preciate the work that went into this... you guys are awesome.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zyLt:
Hello,

I just bought my Asus 32GB about 2 or 3 weeks ago and everythings been perfect with the tablet. Today I went to buy the keyboard and when I tried plugging it in when charging it for a while it would charge the tablet but the keyboard itself or the touchpad would not work. I returned it thinking it was the keyboard and the same happened with the 2nd one. I noticed just a few people reporting the same problem having said the same about the MobileDock Version.

I believe that if there is a way of forcing and install of the mobiledock the dock will work but I am not sure how to do that or if any other solution had been tested.

Thank you very much,

I guess thiss thread can be closed.

My best tip for anyone having this problem is to replace their tablets. I tried to find a fix for 1 week and found nothing online and nobody would say anything. Not even asus costumer service.
