I think xJanx is saying that he tried to connect his Xperia Play to the Sony Xperia Livedock:

This dock is compatible with almost all Xperias from 2011 except the Xperia Play. It has an USB port on its back to connect a usb reciever for wireless keyboard and mouse. Then you use the HDMI port of your mobile to connect it to your TV and you finally have something very near to a PC.
xJanx, the only dock compatible with the Xperia Play is its Multimedia Dock (DK300):
On its back it has a minikack port for outputting audio and a micro USB port for charging it. It's very usefull to use your Xperia Play as a alarm clock on the night. Here's mine on the dock:
And you can use Play's triggers as buttons to stop the alarm.

Your clock looks nice. How did you get it to display like that ?

To make the Xperia Play look like that I bought the app "Bedside" (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wxLDIxMiwibmV0LmdlZWtoZXJkLmJlZHNpZGVwcm8yIl0.)
It's simple, it's cheap, it's compatible with the system alarms, it has never failed me (I have been using it one year aprox.), and for me it's the best looking night clock app. And you can customize it.

Did you take a look to the link I gave? -___-
This is a screenshot of Sony's clock app:
And this is a screenshot of Bedside:
You can customize almost everything: fonts, colours... and you can choose if you want a simple background (like mine) or the system background. I like it because it shows a big digital clock, simple without any more useless gadgets or info bars.

That clock looks amazing. I've been looking for a clock like that.

Any thoughts on this keyboard? Is it any good?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

I had one. The quality is kind of so-so (and so is the mouse) but if you're not typing much this is a pretty good deal considering it's new in the box.
I'd say if you are going to use the keyboard a lot, get the Logitech.

I've got the Motorola keyboard/mouse combo, the mouse is ok and the keyboard is just fine. I reckon if anyone is typing so much that the keyboard becomes a problem then a tablet isn't the best thing to be using.

I like that design/style also and have the Logitech Ultraslim for my iPad
(http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Ultr...420868&sr=8-1&keywords=logitech+keyboard+slim)
and just picked up a Transformer Infinity with the dock.
However, I don't think a quality case that would fit the Nexus 7 could include a keyboard I'd find useful for lengthy periods of time due to the size of the tablet.

Has anyone received this yet?

I got some like the combo mentioned above but I found the keyboard way too small to be viable.

For those of you interested in seeing the controller work with the nexus 7 I have a video here. The intent of the video is to show it used for gaming but this show you that it works rather well.
http://youtu.be/8x3nbP4tx48
I also do an unboxing and overview video of the keyboard but this is with the xoom (originally what it was purchased for) a while ago.
http://youtu.be/jSVhaD9tvkc

Does anyone know what the key next to GMail is supposed to do? It's the 3 horizontal parallel lines key.
Thanks!
Edit: I think it is the menu key, but it doesn't work for me. Someone has a clue about this?

Gaming Case

Is there anything like that for Note 2?
http://www.wynlabs.com/

not that I have seen of. Some of us are using the GameKlip Universal with a sixaxias controller.

I have seen that and it looks awesome. But its not practical - I don't want to carry Sixaxis controller everywhere I go.

Is there anything like that for our note i like it alot!

I use an iControlpad... it's the most portable and versatile game pad that I've found that can attach to the phone. It works as an external battery, too, so you can charge your phone off the game pads battery. They're about to release the iControlpad2, which will have a keyboard built in and has a much nicer design. Their website is icontrolpad.com.

Ya it will be released if that lazy ass developer will hurry up. It was supposed to be released 3 months ago and a hell of alot of people are pissed because they pledged ya back in september or october I believe. I'm sure happy I didnt...
All I did was get a ps controller, bought a controller case, got tetrax and combined them all together.

Honestly you may think it looks bad but it is the smallest mount that I can possibly use with a quality playstation controller.

iControlPad looks awesome. I don't really care about keyboard, but since first version is sold out and due to other non-keyboard improvements. I will wait. Are there any news about price of that thing?
I like your controller, but as I said my goal here is to have portable controller that I can take anywhere (put it into my pocket). And PS controller can't be that.

I like the carrying case for the PS3 controller. I should look for something like that. I went with the GameKlip and Clingo Neklit. Not as portable as what the OP is wanting, but it's universal.

It really depends on what you are playing also.
If you truely want to play n64 the correct way then you must have a ps3 controller with the sixaxis app. I dont see any better way to get that type of control and that type of quality any smaller.
For a while I was actually looking at mini p3 controller lol. Never really found any great ones though.

That was the big thing for me, too... I wanted something easily pocketable. I pledged on their kick starter for the 2nd one, so I got one coming once it's produced. They had delays because they ended up adding LEDs and had to make some design changes, but they're finally about to go into production and plan to start shipping in March. I think the price will be around $70.
I'd be willing to sell or trade my original one once I get the 2nd version... or maybe sooner as I haven't had time recently to use it much anyways.

SGS 4 Game Pad

So, I don't know how many of you are aware of the new Game Pad that Samsung made for the SGS 4, but it looks pretty damn good, and i want one for my Note II.
What do you think?

Oh snaps thats cool that its kinda universal. An kinda i mean for 4"-6.3" phones. Thought it was just for the sgs4 size body only. Definetly gonna pick one up when it comes out.

Yeah, me too.
Hope it won't cost more than 50 bucks though...

Looks pretty good, kinda reminds me of the PhoneJoy Play. I don't like how they've completely ripped off the Xbox 360 controller's buttons though.
To be honest, I think I'd rather get a Gameklip and a Dualshock 3 as this could be used on PC too (not to mention the PS3), is probably more future-proof and has proven ergonomics, etc.

The price should be below $50, i hope.
I'm sure it's going to be just fine, if it will allow devices up to 6.3 inches to be used with it.
Think about it, that's quite some weight, so it'll have to be able to handle it.

I caught wind of a $99 price tag as the MSRP. Dont know how true that is, but I hope it'll be about half that.

$99! Your ****ting me with that price. Hoping for $50 an half off with sammy code

Looks interesting. I would definitely like to see more pictures. Definitely a bit more portable than the PS3 controller and GameKlip. Although, I think the later will be more comfortable for longer gaming sessions.

What I got from that was that it connects via bluetooth, allowing you to have your phone at the other side of the room MHLed to your TV (but why you would game like this I have no clue).
Sent from my GT-N7105

Price will be more than 99$ My tip is 150$

I would second the ps3 thing... Honestly now though, I went on craigslist and bought another xperia play (I used to have one) and keep that in my bag. The xperia play is smaller then any "good" controller are the market and I like that it doesnt kill my phone battery while I'm playing it. Got it for 80 bucks... hell of a deal imo.

I wouldn't expect to ever see this on the market as is. Those buttons are going to take it straight into litigation land from Microsoft.

That's retarded if they charge that much for this 360 pad clone. Most they should cost is 40 considering not all games on android will work on it. I'd rather spend the $60-100 on a more quality product such as the icontrolpad2 which has the gamepad ± keyboard plus better design imho.

Well, if the SGS 4 Game Pad will be so expensive, i guess the icontrolpad 2 will look like a better deal.

well according to phonearena and gsmarena its $113 :banghead:
this much price not worth for me

He didn't. No one had no idea. The DJ was getting irritated so I stopped. But there's no way to track IR rays, so you'd have to go by suspicion.

Thank You for coming up with the idea

Each TV brand has different frequency. That's why you have to select the correct one. The ones in the bar I was at were all Panasonic, and Panasonic hasn't changed much, so the first one Quick Remote tried, worked. Some like RCA have made so many TVs that they have a lot of sets. So if the first set doesn't work, you have click "No" and it will go on to the next. The 3rd set finally worked for RCA.
I have to say, Quick Remote is waaaaay better than WatchOn. Many more options, and much quicker response. Feels like an actual remote instead of a phony. Only downside is you don't get a TV listing. Oh well.
Edit: The RF is on the back of the device, so make sure you have the back of the device pointed towards the TV. This is unlike most remotes (and the S4) where its on the top.

is there an app that gives you the tv listings and will act as a remote?
thanks
