[Q] HDMI out and Gaming - Dell Streak 7

Can you run games on the big screen via the HDMI out from the dock?

Any experience with Dell Streak or Streak7? I don't know that it handles HDMI output the same as TouchWiz does.

I've played a bunch of different snes games with the dock and they all worked fine for me. Used a wii remote and had them on the big screen

Awesome! I just need an HDMI cable, since I got the dock already. Can't wait!

My apologies for the ignorance but please elaborate.
So I can put my S7 in the dock, HDMI out to the tv and use a Wii remote to control the game on my S7?
What apps and settings do I need to make this happen?

I don't know, though, if this supports the analog controllers with the Classic Controller on PSX4Droid (that's what I'm hoping for), but it'll work fine for the Wiimote, nuncheck, and Classic using the digital controls for sure. The app itself does support analog input, but the emulator dev has to enable it. I haven't had time to test it out, yet (darned HC ROM taking up all my free time ).

When it scans for my Wii controller it doesn't see it. Am I forgetting something?

Yes, I use Snesoid and the wiimote app and I can play snes roms on my tv using the hdmi out on the dock and a regular wii remote. Been playing different roms for the last couple weeks, don't know if psx works or not though.

I replied to you on another thread; probably the same thing here. Streakdroid has known kernel issues that affect bluetooth. Switch to rooted or stock 2.2.2.

Yep the dock works well. Thing I cant figure out tho. Audio doesnt output through the hdmi?? Seems I have to use Line Out for sound or the device itself.
Also learned using the wiimote, I can control the tablet menus and so as well. No need to use the touch screen. =D
Was playing F-zero X last night hehe.

Wish the HDMI out worked on Honeystreak...

I've been playing it for about 30 minutes now, using the wired xbox controller makes it SO much better vs trying to tilt the xoom to go where I want.
Go to Google and type in Slideme. Download that market (you don't need to sign up to download apps). I ended up picking up Gensoid, Gameboid, GBCoid, Snesoid, Gearoid and another one for free. The dev who makes those apps is yongzh.
I have all of them. Hopefully that helps.

Recommendations for best game controller for nexus 7?

Since this is my first tablet i want to get a good game controller, any recommendations? I dont know if the sixxaxis app will work on this with my ps3 controller but it should since it has bluetooth. Tegra zone says u can use a wired 360 controller on there games but i dont know if it will work on the nexus 7? So any ideas would be great. Ty very much
You could buy an Onlive controller and play PC games on it . I don't know if that works with the Tegra Zone games though..
SixAxis controllers pair natively with my Transformer Prime (just have to turn the controller on, and search for bluetooth devices from the tablet).
Works with pretty much any app or emulator, especially if the app allows you to remap the keys to your liking. Can't see why the Nexus 7 would be any different...
Im using a sixaxis its ok but i gotta use the cable with my iconia a500, Nyko playpad is out soon thats the offical tegra game pad.
Wait. Is it possible for me to play COD on the N7 using a PS3 controller?

Ah... You guys got me excited there.
I would hold off on buying a Sixaxis controller until the dev of the sixaxis app gives the 'go' for jellybean
Any game that works with the 360 controller can work with the OnLive controller. All you have to do is fool the OS into thinking the OnLive controller is actually a 360 controller, details outlined in this thread.

Lucid Logix are gearing up for their own version of onlive that you can run on your home PC and stream your own games to your laptops/devices (android included). There were demos at the last CES showing 1 PC with 1 Graphics card streaming 3 different games to 3 different devices simultaneously
http://www.lucidlogix.com/technology-cloud.html
makes sense to me, why pay for online to play games you already own for your pc.
As a stand in at the moment you could try "splash top"
Ditto
I agree that the OnLive Controller is the best option, right now. If you are willing to wait, Nyko has a great controller http://www.theverge.com/2012/6/5/3066853/nykos-playpad-android-controllers-free-fighter-ps3-hands-on,
SIxaxis updated yesterday to bring Jelly Bean support. PS3 controller is the best controller because of touch emulation and Sixaxis controller, but requires Root.
Nyko PlayPad and PlayPad Pro hands down. They're not out yet, coming out this fall/winter. and no price, but it fully supports the tegra 3 and works without root.
In addition, you can even REBIND TOUCH CONTROLS to the controller. That sold me right there.
The PlayPad (not pro) also includes a case and stand for your tablet/phone.

It is designed and compatable with all Tegra3 games but it does NOT require the tegra.
It's requirements are only any android device running 3.0+ and bluetooth. It does NOT require the Tegra3 but it is built and designed to instantly work with Tegra3 games, other games and other hardware may require manual setup (you can also download setups through their app)

Wireless Mirroring

Hello y'all,
I'm a school teacher and the school just bought me a Nexus7 and I LOVE IT! I'm here because I use Power Point everyday and I was wondering if there is an accessory or a way to connect my Tablet to my HDMI projector wirelessly, so I can slid through my solids on my tablet. Any help would be great.
Thanks Guys!
Mirroring just isn't possible on the N7 currently :crying:
can you use the bluetooth to do a remote desktop with a laptop that is hooked up to the projector?
just a suggestion
I know this isn't exactly what you are looking for but if you can get a computer connected to the projector and the n7 on the same network there are several good PC remote apps. I used andremote for a long time and was happy with it.

You can use Splashtop Remote Desktop from the Play store
Look at mirrorop in market.
U can mirror nexus on a PC, or on another tablet/one.
I mirrored my Xoom to nexus7 and had xoom connected to TV so I had the Xoom screen on my TV and my nexus 7 and full control of xoom from my 7.

Just a protocol, you need software and hardware that uses it.
Lot of good suggestions so far but they all require another expensive computer or tablet. The easy solution that being a simple hardware device that listens on WiFi and connects to an HDMI video device without another computer that the Nexus 7 can talk to.
For a teacher, business, home user, you plug this device into any HDMI video device and play, images, video, whatever you have on the screen.
It's coming, but not here yet.

You might want to consider a device like this the infinitec pocket tv http://shop.infinitec.com/ is is not a method to let you use your nexus but it is a android device with a hdmi output and a remote control. easy to carry and a lot less expensive than a pc.

Miracast is JUST a protocol. It is not an app, or a program. It is a standard that a number of hardware vendors are collaborating on. You need software and hardware that supports the protocol to use it.

.... I give up hope for humanity's stupidity
Tegra 3 already supports miracast, just needs to be enabled in the FIRMWARE. Most tvs in 2013 will support it without hardware dongle but a dongle will be a available for your HDMI slot. No different than using mhl cable with HDMI cable except, oh wait, this solution is wireless...

You're likely not to receive future updates. They are pushing users to the "free" Splashtop 2 app. Ipad users get lifetime anywhere pack. Android users don't. Splashtop has lost credibility and wouldn't touch their crap even with your devices.

[Q] Does sixaxis controller work for rooted KFHD?

I'm considering to buy a kindle fire hd, after I returned a Nexus 7 due to its lack of HDMI and quality issue.
Hardware wise, KFHD has everything I need. But the only thing concerns me is if it supports the sixaxis controller app from google play? Could someone confirm this? This app needs root.
The reason I'm asking is that I'm a light gamer and like to use a ps3 controller to play some games on KFHD connected to an external monitor for better viewing.
Right now, I'm playing modern combat 3 on my samsung s2 connected to an external monitor via MHL cable, but it has some resolution and lag problems. I want to upgrade to a tablet with full HDMI.
Please let me know if you have some insight?
Thanks

Ok so the app works and recognizes the controller, BUT, I havnt figured out how to allow input by the controller since kfhd's keyboard settings does not have any options for input. Will have to do some research on a work around or wait till someone figures it out a way.

Sixaxis controller

Hey guys. Im currently owning a htc one x+. I like sense, but with sense 4+ based roms my favorite app ( sixaxis controller) doesnt work. I'm thinking about getting the htc one, but i have to know if sixaxis controller app works. Can anyone help me?

Google play is telling me that its compatible.
If you're rooted install this app (free) to see if sixaxis will work or not.
I can't get it to work :/
It doesn't work. I was pretty disappointed considering i could even use a sixaxis controller on my iPhone
I remember reading that it has something to do with the bluetooth drivers HTC uses
Hi,
I'm new here and would start with this:
It's sad to here, that the HTC One doesn't support Sixaxis, I really hoped for that...
Is there any way to get the controller working e.g. with some kind of bluetooth dongle that emulates a keyboard to use it over an OTG cable?

It will work with a OTG cable but if the games doesn't have gamepad support, you would need the Sixaxis app.to map the keys.

This is ridiculous on HTC's part and i'm seeing it as a complete deal breaker, i love this phone but this is a load of crap.
No controllers are working over USB OTG for me, anyone managed to get them to work?

First unlock your HTC ONE, then recovery, then backup your original rom just in case. Install Viper ROM 1.1.0 along with Elemntal X kernel search forums here in xda. Download them and put both in a folder of choice on your internal sd card. Wipe factory reset, flash Viper ROM then flash Elemntal X kernel. Reboot, rebooot again (yes, twice). Connect OTG cable, no power add-on needed, direct cable only ($6 ebay) along with PS3 controller usb wired of course. Open game. Play. No sixaxis needed, kernel recognizes the contoller right away. Games it works with that I have and know for sure work. MC4, Max Payne, Shadow Gun, GTA 3 anniv. addition, Dead Trigger, havent tryed Nova yet but im sure it works, Sonic. Most of these games you cant configure buttons for so the kernel does the mapping for you that you cant change. NOTE: After market PS3 controllers dont work, work but some options dont work in game like shoot, BIG ONE lol. XBOX 360 works, but for the games that have button mapping ONLY. You loose options in game with ones that dont have mapping, like again, shooting. HOPE THIS HELPS EVERYONE!!!!!

Yea but then you have the issue of using a wired controller, I already knew that you could do that.
The whole fascination is that it's "Wireless", hence why were talking about bluetooth working with Sense, it's an age old issue which has plagued HTC's phones and the only way around it usually is to run an AOSP or Cyanagen based ROM.
Using the Moga allows you to keep sense and have a pad that works over BT.
Appreciate the input but it defeats the object.
