Believe me, I'd like to see it working on all HTC devices as much as you do but I it is really not up to me. Technical info about the problem is in the second post of this thread under "known bugs". If some of you can get some attention from brilliant minds here at xda, someone might, just might be able to help.

Thanks for the offer, but what I'm really looking for at this point is someone with a Guitar Hero 3 controller for the wii. Drop me a PM if you have such a controller.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] netsuo:
Tjanks for your work. I can confirm that this doesn't work with HTC Desire, BUT using bluetooth settings to find the controller works, but cannot associate because of the wrong code.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] McHale:
Any chance that people can post what controller work and what controllers DON'T work?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pikipirs:
Finding it in settings should work but that doesn't help us because we need to access bluetooth in a low-level way and if we do so, we can't even detect the bluetooth.

The wiimote connects without a PIN but standard Android is enforcing it so it won't be possible. But even if it would be, you would still see it "Paired but not connected". My point is: Android as it is, is currently not able to connect to HID devices without apps like mine which go "the long way around" to achieve such connectivity.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] stshannon:
Hmmm... no worse function wise then default.

A lot more aesthetically pleasing tho.

Gestures are nice addition.

The biggest thing for me (that has been holding me to stock) was the "text formatting" upon zooming. Default browser reformatted text columns very very nicely.

Al tho xScope is VERY FAST, and nice aesthetically, the text formatting was horrid.

Dolphin text formatting is on par with the default browser.

I think ill give this a try for a little while, see how it grows on me.

After helping my friend get this setup on his Motorola Droid and nesoid, I'm hooked! Problem is I have the HTC Incredible! You have yourself a paying customer as soon as you can get it working with Sense UI... any time frame? :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] tdavis42:
I to have the Incredible and would pay for this seeing as this phone has TV out. I would never need a game console again.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Alleviate:
Does this only work for the SNES emulator? Will it work for GameBoid? Pokemon ftw! Lmao.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] drsprite:
We got it to work on the Droid using NESOID - So I would assume GameBoid would work too. Just need to map the right keys in your emulator
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Alleviate:
Nice! Hmm what about the classic Wii controller? Is there a wireless one of those? And will it work?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Shadomastr:
I own an HTC hero and am running stock android with htc sense layered on top. I am having the same issues with connectivity as other sense users are experiencing. I can download the .apk from the first post, install it as an application, open the application and switch to IME, but when I try to complete the final step and connect the remote... nothing but an error :(

any help??

P.S. when i go to change WiiControllerIME in language and Keyboard settings inside the app, the system force closes. I have to back completely out of the app, enter settings, and change keyboard settings.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] nevarDeath:
I followed your instructions in the first post exactly. I have a motorola cliq with kb7sqi-cliq-v1.3.8.1

Everything works fine, the wiimote stops blinking and goes to just the player 1 light the app says "pooling data. Done" then the app crashes and the wiimote light turns off a moment later.

I can't pull up this app or ryan's in the market. Tell me what a logcat is and I'll post it if you're interested
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] coasterman927:
Same thing happens on my Cliq, except I'm on firmware v.1.4.8. Once it connects, app closes and the Wiimote disconnects.

And I can't find it in the market either.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Nushio:
Worked on my Tmobile-G1 under CMod 5.0.7 Test3.

Played Replica Island. It was awesome!

One feature request: Do accelorometers work? How about vibration?

I know I'd need to hack up Replica Island to allow sending vibrate to the wiimote and receiving the accels from the wiimote instead of the 'droid.

Either way. Great job! Thanks a lot!

Someone notify Gamevil. I might actually play their games if they supported custom controls :P
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] advil0:
Okay I got this on my G1, set it up, connected, all works great. But when I go into SNESoid or NESoid, I remapped the keys, all the keys are set to the Wii buttons, but in the game none of them work, it's like they don't exist.

Any ideas?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Nushio:
In replica island, it wouldn't detect the wiimote properly.

I opened notepad and noticed that its using the dpad as up, down, left, right, and 1 and 2 as "1" and "2". So I configured my Replica Island's controls to dpad up, dpad down, 1, and 2.

That got the job done, hope it works with your roms.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pikipirs:
I'm sorry to hear that. It doesn't matter seeing how the app doesn't work on Sense UI phones anyway.

Have you enabled "Use input method" in the emulator's settings?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] r2001uk:
It works for all the emulators from yongzh :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] sara1785:
Where are you motorola cliq users finding this app? I can't find it anywhere in the market, or how to download it. Also apk isn't working.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pikipirs:
This app installs in Cliqs but (so I hear) force closes on connection.

I am trying to solve the issue. I need one of the users to make me a logcat. A lot of you are reporting my app going up to "Polling data" and then force closing.

If you own a Cliq then please do the following:

install sendLog from the market. Have its shortcut in a convinient place

of course, turn bluetooth on

run my app (install it from the first post, Android 1.5 users are not able to see it on the market yet)

try to connect the wiimote as you would

when my app force closes, IMMEDIATELY run sendLog, choose "Raw" and wait for it to compose a logcat

then email the logcat to me to [wii log @ ccpcreations . com] (remove spaces). Please include a word "WiimoteController" and a description of what you did to trigger the force close and what the application showed at that time

A logcat will hopefully let me see what the problem is and I might be able to fix it.

Not working on Eris

Tried it and get error No. 1. Turned on and off my blue-tooth a few times and stilled didn't work. (Same problem no.1 which didn't even find the device just said error no. 1. Also tired the competition's (just to see if it is a difference) and still the same story. Wouldn't connect. Going into the blue-tooth settings the wiimote showed up, but as you said before it didn't matter. I also tried a another step in forcing close the HTC sense and forcing it closed. Then set regular android home as default. Figured hell worth a shot, but still came up with nothing.

It appears you didn't read the first two posts about this not working with most HTC devices. Not trying to be harsh or mean but please read the OP's post before reporting problems.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] kartoffel7:
I just tested the new apk file on a stock HTC Hero running 1.5

The app installs, but when the app runs and tries to install the wiimote IME in the keyboard settings, the app force closes everytime. At this point it is unuseable.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] ROBIN50N:
as he said it wouldn't on first page.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] crankshaft:
So would it work if we flashed a Rom without sense in it? Think its time to root and find out!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] kartoffel7:
Comments like that are not of any use. The OP specifically asked if anyone had this type of phone/rom, and to report on it.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] coolbho3000:
The wiimote library you are using is GPLv3. Can you please post the source code to this app? :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pikipirs:
Yes, but it's also LGPL for non commercial purposes. And I'm not selling it.

It's really easy to program it though. If you want it :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] coolbho3000:
I was just curious about all the native stuff :p Good work, though. I don't need the source (of the modifications you made to the library), but other people might.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] topiser:
Great app, seems to work great, but I have a problem mapping the keys on gameboid. I am using a smartQ v5(a tablet that runs android aswell as other os's)and i got my wii remote to connect, works graet on as i can scroll through menus and the such, but I am unable to map the keys. When i press a button to map, such as the A button, it comes up with the screen that says "please press a key", but when I do press the buttons on my wii mote,nothing happens. And i am sure I have it connected and selected as it actually works in game, but i need the A button to actually play xD Any and all help is appriciated!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] AndroidAutobot:
Worked fine on a stock G1 and a mytouch with an old cyanogen ROM on it.

Does not work on my cliq (same app close issue reported earlier). Pikipirs - do you have a log cat for this issue yet? If not ill get one for you.

Does not work on my behold 2. I get "can not detect Bluetooth. Is bluetooth on? Error #1"

And R Frawley - your app doesn't show up in the market at all for any 1.5 based phone, and seems to forceclose every time I tried to map the keys on a stock G1 and stock MyTouch =(

Works fine on a stock Dutch HTC Magic, had one reboot but that seemed to be caused by snesoid.

figured out adb and all just to get this program and when i open the wiimote and select init and connect it searches, says connected and shows a few key buttons get hit when i press the remote, then seems to auto close and the remote loses connection. new batteries in remote.. any ideas anyone? awesome app by the way!!

Same deal with my BackFlip. Used SDK to install. Finds my Wiimote then closes out. Last message is "done...pooling button data...." I've seen the video and the app looks awesome! I hope updates will fix this.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] AndroidAutobot:
Seems to pertain to motoblur powered Devices in general since the exact same issue has been reported with the cliq. He said he needed a logcat to fix the problem. I don't know if one has been sent to him or not but as soon as I get to the next savepoint on new super Mario bros I'm about to turn off my Wii so I can send him one.

Hey all I'm curious if anyone has tried this w/ an aftermarket (Nyko) wii controller? I don't have a wii but this looked bad ass, sooo.. I was a cheapskate when I hit the store earlier and paid $10 less for the Nyko..

When you initially connect the controller it works for a matter of seconds and it registers button presses on the remote. After a few seconds it no longer registers presses, a few seconds after that 'Disconnected and cleaning up... Disconnected.'

None of the four led's light solid after initiating the connection.

Thoughts? Would a logcat help?

Hello

Let me start by saying, awesome project!

But i have a problem, my wii remote connects fine and i can see buttom 1,2,3 and so on being pressed and released. But when i go in to snesoid og gensoid and push user input and then try to map keys, then it dosent work.

Iam using a stock nexus one.

Is there any solution to this problem?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] ermacwins:
I can confirm the app connects on HTC Hero with Vanilla Rom :cool:

now what do I do on snesoid and cps2 to get this to work?

Also does it work with the classic controller plugged in?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] AndroidAutobot:
Classic controller doesn't work yet, but he says he's working on it... (BTW, Pikipirs - I'm assuming the classic controller pro will also work? same amount of buttons and hooks up the same way... I just got one so I'm hopefull =))

Instructions on how to use this app are found on the first page. To get SNESoid to work with it, simply

A Make sure you're running the latest version of SNESoid

B Ensure "use input method" in SNESoid's settings is checked and

C map the keys. =)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] emuboy:
can you add support for nunchuck or classic pad?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] profet:
thanks

This is a fantastic idea - and will really let our phones replace our portable games consoles. So thank you, and well done!

I don't want to rush you, and I know how difficult it is to pin these things down, but do you have any idea of how long it might take to get support for the HTC Desire and other Sense UI handsets? Do you have a good grasp of what the problem is and how to fix it?

Is there anything other devs can do to help?

I don't want to encourage profiteering - but I think people would be happy to pay a small amount for this app once it is ready, which could maybe make it more viable for you to put more time into the development. The potential audience is vast!

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] kartoffel7:
No the Hero is running the stock cupcake rom and has not been rooted. I was unaware that the stock cupcake rom for the Hero had sense. So if it does.. then I stand corrected :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pikipirs:
Watch out guys, here comes one really really BIG post :)

Firstly let me say that I am currently in touch with one of you guys (cant say which exactly) with Cliqs and am working on a problem with motoblur devices. Seems like the native library crashes for some reason where it shouldn't. Give me time to fix this: debugging a problem of a native library crashing with a null pointer exception on a device that I don't have access to, is HARD, I'm sure every developer reading this will agree.

That's interesting, never thought something like this might happen. So, key remapping is on my to-do list. :)

As I said, I communicate with a fantastic person (which seems to understand my jiberish fine enough :) ) and I'm sure we'll fix this problem. Just give us time :)

I've heard about these aftermarket controllers, never thought they would cause problems seeing how they otherwise work fine with the Wii. If my app says that it is disconnecting that means that either

a) it received a signal from the controller to disconnect (not likely to happen spontaneously, and that would also cause them to disconnect from the Wii) or

b) the controller itself doesn't support status reporting which my app needs to keep the connection alive.

Can you check if you can read the controller status on the Wii, like how much battery is left in the controller?

Come to think of it... this might be a problem for Cliqs too... hm.... time to debug :)

You probably forgot to switch to WiiControllerIME (second step in my app).

Yes. The Pro version is confirmed to work on a new version. It's a busy week ahead for me so updates might suffer a bit.

I am currently thinking of testing a completly different approach to connecting a Sense UI device to a controller, just to see if it will work. But it's not straight forward and it will take me some time to try.

I'm not going to charge for this app. Three reasons:

I want our devices to be able to do as much as possible :)

parts of code I use prohibit me from making a profit out of all this

Google doesn't allow me to sell apps on the Market because apparently Slovenia (my country) is not on their support list for the Checkout account for merchants (a real shame too because I'd love to develop for the great platform that Android is)

So donations and revenues from ads will have to do :)

Allegedly. Someone a few posts back claims that this works on a Dutch stock HTC device.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] HunteronX:
Looks like you're going to be busy! :)

I would help you test things, but I'm really busy with revising for college exams. Thanks for all the information though, and good luck! :D

disable trigger button

first off, great work!! I am loving this on my n1! :D

is there any way to disable the trigger button on the back of the wiimote? I often accidently hit it when playing nesoid and it brings up a nesoid menu screen (close, back to game, etc.). :confused:
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pikipirs:
One way to quickly disable it is to assign it to something inside nesoid, like to the "select" button (under Key mappings). Or to the "screen-shot" functionality (under Shortcut keys).
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] shareef:
that worked perfectly, thanks!! :D

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] AndroidAutobot:
no HTC Sense based phones are yet supported. You should always read a thread before you post. Pretty sure this issue is listed on the first page of the thread.

Do we know whether R Frawleys app is working on Sense UI based phones? That would currently be one benefit of his app. Every phone I've tried his app on (G1 stock and MyTouch stock) forcecloses when an attempt to map the buttons is made. Can't try using his on either of my other phones however, since they're both cupcake based and his app doesn't show up in the market for 1.5. =L

Pretty sure ill be using the app native to this thread however... since its already supporting 1.5 and will support my classic controller pro =) I can't wait!!! =)

Both the OP and R Frawley's hard work is MUCH appreciated!!! This is quite possibly THE illest, most ingenuitive app concept ever produced! =)

Hello,

Probably will buy this device tomorrow, used, dont sure ifs its unbranded or Vodafone (Portugal) branded.

I have a question ...

- If it's unbranded (and so on unlocked), there's anything I need to know (something in the firmware), so I can install "anything" I want?

- If its branded and sim locked... it's easy to unbrand and unlock? Should I take a look of something on the firmware?

Really appreciate your help.

Thanks,

Tiago

There is no good way yet to unlock the htc tattoo locked to orange uk except from using the ismart sim 2008. Besides the simlock problem, you have a smaller screen than other android devices. So some apps or games might not work properly.. but most of them do. Also you have limited access to the market, that is, you can access products that have been specified htc tattoo compliant only unless you root the device and install the cracked market app. Besides that everything is ok.
[Click General] Maxxd01:
I never said it's tattoo orange uk... I said maybe its vodafone portugal tattoo...

smaller screen? what's the normal screen for tattoo ?
[Click General] Stiflerlv:
he ment its small screen, compared to other HTC phones, most phones got 3+ inches screen, tattoo is 2.8.

about unlocking - its ur rights to try put ur sim card in the phone before u buy it. Myn was unlocked, thought they sayd its locked to they network. At same time - they use same phones for selling as locked to they network with a contract, as same phones for selling it for full price...
[Click General] Maxxd01:
I dont want to count with simcard... always had problems with it.

So its not easily possible to unlock and unbrand a tattoo ?
