oh okay, you mean you want my saved gamekeyboard profile for rr2?

its easy, you can do it yourself. you just need two gamepad A and B and map your dpad left to A and put it right to the left of your screen and map dpad right to gamepad B and put it right to the right of your screen and play rr2 with gamepad.

but you must choose Method E in rr2 control settings
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] DiKeJ:
I've made some new stuff - for Real Racing 2.

Thanks for Izzy Stinson for info about version 000418 which "support" our edits in GameKeyboard 2.0.

Info about controls (working with RR2 000418, didn't test other!) :

RB - go to right

LB - go to left

D-Pad Down and Square - brake

D-Pad Up - look behind

I think those controls are preety comfortable.

Take care, everyone :). TLRtheory, if you can and if you want post it on your site, where we have every modded GKP's ^^.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] TLRtheory:
Uploaded!

BTW are you, by any chance, the same DiKeJ that made near every incompatible Gameloft game work on Xperia X10?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] xperia64:
This is one of my favorite android apps out there and with the addition of hardware->screen mapping increases its functionality greatly. I already used this to remap my X button as a space bar to make my xperia play compatible with more flash games.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] GetPatriotized:
Anyone mind sharing my a copy? For some reason when I buy it.Says my phone is incompatible :( Been waiting for an app like this a for a long time.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] NeWCuLTKiNG:
He also made a sweet rom for our play. Work some of that magic to get gamepad working better on cm7
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] DiKeJ:
TLRtheory, yep, here I am - that's me. You know how I feel right now, when I heard that you know me? It's so sweet, I'm very happy right now :).

Yeah, I made games, when X10 users needed it. Next I have to sell my X10 (money problems), but one of XDA users buy me one again, so I can continue my adventure with this device. When my last moded games relased, I noticed, that Gameloft learn a little - they use other structure of files (you know from :D?), and I don't need to make some modifications - the only problem for X10 and gaming on it was old hardware (=slow performance on new games). So then, I, with my new X10, start working :D. That's why now we have DiXperia Gaming (of course only X10 users), so we can play GTA III or MC3 without lags ^^. For now, present time, I have X10, and Play, and I want to develop few things before I go (yes, unfortunely, I have Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, and I think soon eveything ends :() - ICS for X10 and Play, and maybe some Kernel for X10. Then, if things go good, I will get Xperia 'Hayabusa' or 'Mint' (codenames), make one fully-super-uper stuff for it, and complete my carrier on development. This is short info about some of my work :D.

GetPatriotized, :).
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] DiKeJ:
Made it again. Now I think you can call it "much normal" settings/controls, of course for Real Racing 2.

Info about controls (working with RR2 000418, didn't test other!) :

D-Pad Right - go to right

D-Pad Left - go to left

D-Pad Down and Square - brake

D-Pad Up and Triangle - look behind

LB and Start - Pause/Options

RB and Circle - Change camera

Cheers :D.

Tlrtheory, have you made a list like you did with a list of xperia play optimized games, but of which games runs good using gamepad with gamekeyboard app?

I want to give some I have tried and it went perfect with gamepad.

I have tried angry piggy seasons, piggy adventure, sprinkle, MOS speedrun, roboto, run like hell, helium boy, lep's world, real racing 2, battleloot adventure, realms of fortune, last stand, zombieville, zombieville usa and some other more I have tried and tested but I removed them and I forgot the games names :P

Im sorry if one of the above already usable and optimized for xperia play at least it works well to use with my hardware keyboard
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] NeWCuLTKiNG:
Gamekeyboard works well but they need to add another option for dpad joystick games don't work well
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] GetPatriotized:
How do I save the layout for each game?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Izzy Stinson:
there is an options for that, but you need an analog controller such as ps3 dual shock controller, xbox 360 wireless controller or other usb controller for it to work.

im gonna test it soon after i found usb otg in the store

---------- Post added at 09:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:43 PM ----------

there is a 'save profile' options in the settings if im not mistaken
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] NeWCuLTKiNG:
Another controller defeats the purpose of built in controller

Gonna attempt Nova 2 with this, I hate onscreen controls on fps games. Have you guys seen the NOVA3 trailer?:eek: le drool.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Nabeel_Nabs:
Your forum has been down for 2 days , just thought I'd let you know.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] maddog00:
That's odd. It was working, now it's not. Not sure what happened. Grr.

Circle - [Back] not supported

Amazing app. But, this is very frustrating. following the basic 7 tutorial and i cannot map the circle button. every time I goto hardkey mappings and as the tutorial instructs tap mapping 2 then push circle , i gt the message '[Back] not supported'. I am on CM7. Nobody seem to have that problem.

Any ideas? :confused:
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] TLRtheory:
Awesome, awesome work! I definitely appreciate the work you've done. I think you may have single-handedly made my X10-owning experience awesome!

Yep, I'm very aware and I've been working at it... thing is, I'm still very new at running my own forums, so trying to learn how to set up phpMyAdmin so I can rebuild the database is kinda kicking my ass.

My guess is that the mapping algorithm of CM7 isn't up to snuff with the stock experience. In stock roms, there's a level of distinction such that Circle can be used as Circle instead of a secondary back button. Seems that whoever built your CM7 didn't factor in that level of distinction.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] GetPatriotized:
oh,nevermind
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] DiKeJ:
TLRtheory, so you had X10 and used my modded GL games? :D
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] TLRtheory:
All the time :D
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] DiKeJ:
Just like me :D. Sorry for offtop, but did you try DX7? :)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Gi0:
Thank you for answering. I'm using the rom found in this forum :

{GSM/CDMA}[DEVELOPMENT] -FXP115- CM7.2.0

See that others are using this rom and apparently they're not having this circle = back problem. Anyone with this rom with same prob?:(
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] :
TLRtheory, your thread made Engadget!

http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/03/gamekeyboard-for-xperia-play/

Not bragging, but I've been on Engadget several times(most times not directly mentioned). I truly wish I never had. Regardless, congrats.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] SilverFreak:
Hi, it works only on Xperia PLAY? :)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] :
it should work on any device that has root. I have heard it works with both physical buttons on any device and bluetooth keyboards/gamepads. A boon to my JXD S601 and Yinlips YDPG-18v2 since they too, are now Xperia-Play optimized.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] TLRtheory:
I've actually gotten too comfy on stock to try out anything else.

Niiice! And I see the iTrolls are already there in full force. I was actually waiting on this to use alongside the pocketgamer and intomobile coverage so that perhaps LocNet would see just how powerful the can of worms they opened up is, and how much more powerful it would be if they managed to integrate dual analogs.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] cyrusalmighty:
Has anyone using ICS been able to get this gamekeyboard to work? I know the joystick 6 won't work on gingerbread.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] TLRtheory:
Figured it out; the issue has been resolved and the forums are back online :D

BTW, DiKeJ, your updated Real Racing 2 GKP is up
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] DiKeJ:
I don't see the second one on your page :). Write two of my controls, maybe someone want other, not the first :). Thank you.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] NeoTechni:
Would it be possible to add mouse support?

So we could use a bluetooth mouse to control a virtual analog stick?

Speaking of which, can we map Xperia Play's analog touchpads to virtual analog sticks?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] NeoTechni:
Considering this is mainly for the Xperia Play, going with the 360 layout is counter-intuitive. You should include an option to use Xperia Play's button icons. That way I don't have to stop and think what triangle maps to.

Also, again being for Xperia Play, you should use the search button instead of menu, as far less games already use that button. Or let us map it.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] GetPatriotized:
Am I doing something wrong?

For each game I play,I have to go into GameKeyboard,load the profile and so on? and is there an easier way to switch keyboards? Instead of having to find a text area (long press) and change input?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] NeWCuLTKiNG:
I read that you can use this to input cheats for gta3 anyone know how to do that?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] valhadmar:
I created an account to ask a question that has yet to be answered. Has anyone found a way to place swipe commands on the buttons yet?

For Example, Captain America, they use Swipe Left And Right to move, I would want to place those on Left and Right on the actual directional pad. Along with Swipe UP, on my X Button.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] cyrusalmighty:
Funny you mention this. I just uninstalled Captain America from my play because I couldn't figure out how I'd remap my hardkeys to work on it.lol. I don't have answer but if you figure it out please post it here?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willfck4beer:
*DISCLAIMER - everything I say below is based on belief and may be wrong. :)

Believe that the majority of what you said is correct.

Slight thing - nexxus 4g (I believe this is sammy/goog, no?)

While kernel may have specific customizations for sense, believe sense is built on top of OS (ICS) and not IN the kernel itself per se.

(MOST LIKELY SCENARIO): Believe that HTC has to release an update where ICS and Sense crap all play nicely together and sprint has to test it and release it and then xda devs need to fix it to remove bloat, optimize, and ensure no more CIQ-ish kind of crap or htc spy crap or root removal...can't trust any of these bastards. The update will have ICS + Sense + Kernel (including the proprietary or binary blob drivers for things like wimax, camera, screen).

(IDEAL SCENARIO): HTC quit being little Apple-tards, realize that their differentiator is that they ARE NOT a walled garden - that customer enthusiasm is a good thing. They get off their asses and send a working kernel source for ICS AOSP (just the kernel) to team douche/team win/team kang... somebody cool (officially or unofficially) and BAM - everything works great in the AOSP/AOKP world. I mean really - if we are going to be in a walled garden, is not Apple's the best? Why not just buy iphones if HTC's gonna be a giant douche? Turd sandwich or Samsung would be better options.

Please correct me if I'm wrong. This is a learning experience for me too! :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinnedone:
Wondering about this as well. It would be nice if the source code for the nexus 4g(wimax) would help us on the EVO front.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Papa Smurf151:
One of the biggest problems for the ics rom is its not based on the kernel its supposed to be running. The kernel has been frankenkerneled from tiamats gb kernel with the correct settings to run as ics. While I know that the kernel has been updated to somewhat but its not the true ics kernel some of these other phones are running and also while team douche or team win got the wimax working on aosp gb back in the day...they are no longer working on the evo and also wimax back then wasn't a quick fix. It was on the back burner for the longest time. I commend you on wanting to work on the drivers and learn. I would start by contacting prelude drew via twitter and or atyoung the current dev for the mason ics kernel that hes had great success with. Those two could point you in the right direction or bring on board with them on getting everything working especially with your strong IT background it will come in handy.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willfck4beer:
Forgive my fading memory, but wikipedia reports Android supports wimax directly.

I thought I read elsewhere that 2.3 GB or 3 and on was supposed to support wimax natively - thereby obviating team win's wimax "fix."

?So ICS doesn't support wimax (or it does?) but we need a driver from the mfg? Is this a broadcom/qualcomm thing? Proprietary driver? Supplied to HTC as a binary blob rather than source?

Will we likely have a first breakthrough when HTC releases the source to ANY ICS kernel?

Will we similarly have a closer breakthrough when HTC releases source to a phone with wimax by same mfg?

What happened to the leaks? Ninja911? Fxck it seems dev has stagnated on these devices. So much hardware and we can't use any of it! GRRRR Why is anyone still buying HTC when they are cxckblocking us so entirely?

Surely if HTC wanted to they could release an ICS AOSP kernel source with little to no effort that works with AOSP roms right? They don't have to do any of their purported excuse for the delay (i.e. get ICS and Sense to play nice, right?)

As it is ICS AOSP can't use 4G, Netflix, Front Camera, HWA...?

On the E3d there's no 4G, no 3D camera, no 3d display, ...

HDMI/MHI surely won't work, will they?

Basically anything that makes the Evo special above a free android type phone?

Along with other issues.

GOD I'd LOVE a 4G working MIUI ICS, CM9, ... but it will never happen - just HTC's corporate culture? I think we have to vote with our $ and support Samsung or a hungry underdog (like HTC used to be) such as Huawei, LG?

Sorry for the vent. Please correct if I've miss-stated above. Learning experience. :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BeerMit:
My sentiments exactly...

I've been curious about this for the past couple months, I just assumed it was because Sprint felt the Evo4G had run its course, had a good life, etc, and it was time to retire it.

And then since Sprint was no longer supporting HTC followed suit by deciding since Sprint was cutting support for it, HTC realized it was kinda pointless for them to upgrade it. It IS almost 2 years old, so I'm not too irked by it, but I'd like to echo the OP's concern about them not just releasing some ICS compatible drivers for those of us with tinkering hands to play with.

*sigh* Guess I'll just have to wait until the LTEVO is released...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
The evo was classified EOL(end of life) before ICS source was even released by Google, therefore HTC has no ICS drivers for them to release because a) they never built anything ICS for the evo and b) alot of the hardware drivers are proprietary and come from the individual hardware manufacturers and not HTC. HTC simply compiles the drivers into a final build to make each specific device function
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ittsmith:
Ok, so i understand that HTC and Sprint are out of it, but WHO is the manufacturer of my wimax antenna and is this antenna in any device that has ICS running on it? If so, I'm sensing from this post that even if they release this driver, it still won't help cuz the EVO 4g ICS rom's are actually frankensteined gingerbread code? That seems even weirder. Why wouldn't the EVO 4g ICS roms be frankensteined ICS code massaged for the evo from ICS?

Thanks for the term BLOB. I'll research how that interplays with kernel and OS version and driver and see if i can get a better handle on it. It just annoys me that i'm paying for wimax but in order to use it i have to be on older OS. This phone is totally fine for my basic needs and still has plenty of life left in it. They are accellerating the "planned obselecense" way to fast. Sorry for the typos...its late for me. Thanks everyone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Papa Smurf151:
Its Frankenstein gb code with ics code intertwined cause there are no drivers for ics that'll run the evo so the other kernel was modified to work for ics
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bjohanso:
I'm no expert on Android but I do understand operating systems pretty well, so here is my best guess as to what is going on:

1) A kernel is pretty hardware generic (maybe architecture dependent only) and provides various functions to the software that runs on top of it (e.g. the Dalvik VM that runs most Android apps and Android/Sense UI) and it is provided by Google. Each kernel will need to have certain features/capabilities that are specific to a given Android release (i.e. you can't just use a GB kernel with ICS since it will be missing some features expected by the ICS UI and Dalvik VM).

2) Individual manufacturers need to add drivers (kernel modules) in with the generic kernel from Google to support the specific chips on a given phone. So, for our Evo 4g there need to be drivers for the WiMax chip, camera, bluetooth, etc.. These drivers need to be updated for each new Android release kernel. Depending on how a release kernel changes, this could be just a re-compile or it might require somebody to rework the code. If the WiMax code needs more than just a recompile, then it is either a lot of work for an amateur dev team to try and refactor the GB WiMax code to work for an ICS kernel OR HTC needs to do the work and release it for us. Since the latter is unlikely to happen, getting WiMax working would require a lot of work from an amateur developer.

3) It is also possible that some drivers are just released as binary blobs that are loaded by the kernel. In this case, a binary driver that was compatible with a GB kernel may no longer be compatible with the ICS kernel. In this case if HTC doesn't release it, it would require a ground up write of an ICS driver for WiMax, which is unlikely to happen.

The above is my best guess as to what is going on as a general field expert on kernels/drivers. Since I'm not as familiar with Android specifically, I could be off on what is happening here. We'd need somebody who has played around with Android kernel development for the Evo 4g to say for sure.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
You're fairly close, the android kernel is essentially the Linux kernel, HTC doesn't build the wimax driver I believe its qualcomm that makes the radios in our devices but I'm not sure they make the wimax radio or just the cdma radio. They make a good amount of the hardware in the evo from radios to gpu to audio control components. Building the drivers isn't an easy task for any single dev without existing source to modify, even someone who does it for a living would have a long, difficult road to building a driver from the ground up with no preexisting source to use as a map I've been working on drivers for ics for a cpl months and its not easy starting with a blank page and starting code from scratch. Even with the existing aosp wimax drivers available for the evo, so much has changed in ics modifying the drivers is basically like starting from scratch cuz so much code needs to be reworked. It will probably be one of the last things to be added just like it was on gb
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinnedone:
What about when they update the EVO3D? Will either the ics update for the 3d or when they release the kernel source for 3d ics help?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Papa Smurf151:
Probably not since the 3d uses a different chipset and the insides look nothing like the evo
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DB13:
The Evo Design 4G update would help us more than the EVO 3D would since the specs are similar to ours
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinnedone:
I was going on the assumption that the only roms with newer versions of sense that have working 4g are ports from the Evo3d.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madunix:
you guys are nerds and i envy you all...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mammothjojo88:
There is so much awesome going on.. our best bet, would be to grab the EVO design 4g update. That would be as close as we can get.

then someone can port it here

Hopefully HTC will release a source code for the kernel & or RUU. Then we can go from there...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ittsmith:
Thank you, i am learning alot.

Is there a page that discusses the evo 4g specifically and shows what parts are frankensteined and what are not. Ideally, something like

Radio

- wimax - unavailable

- cmda - Use ICS wrapper on Gingerbread kernel driver 2.2. wrapper created by developer abc. Gingerbread kernel driver - HTC Android 2.3 patch - version 12341

Graphics

- something - blob - developer xzy

- something else - blob - developer def

- something else - kernel driver - Standard Android 4.0 patch - version 5.6

Camera

- front - ICS blob - developer pdq

- back - unavailable

Microphone

- standard - ICS Kernel Driver - Standard Android 4.0 patch - version 3.3

etc

I would think that each phone has a "map" of what is available and I would think developers would share. Obviously the first thing I would look at on this map is what did Teamwin do? I can't imagine they created a BLOB, but instead did they use a wrapper on a Froyo wimaxx driver or a wrapper on a gingerbread sense patch or did they write it themselves.
