[Q] TV remote control app for sony Blu Ray - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

Hello, this is my first post here.
I am new/noob to Android/Mobile devices, i have a Transformer Prime-LOVE IT!!!
I was a lucky one and had very few problems with mine.
I did have a GPS and low WIFI problems, but i did the "Pinch" along the edges and it got my GPS working fine and it doubled my WIFI speeds.
I bought a Sony Blu Ray player (model #BDP-S580) and hooked it up (Samsung 50" Plasma) and all is running fine.
On the box it said use "Media Remote" app for a remote control.
So i went to the app market to download it, but it said it wasn't compatible with my Transformer Prime.
Question-Is there a app that i can use to use my Prime as a remote control?
Thanx

[Q] Gamepad for E10i?

There are a lot of emulators on the market. As far as I was able to try, most of them run really good on the mini, except you can't quite control the games one touch at a time.
The mini has a multitouch capable panel, although Sony hasn't and will not enable it.
My question is if there is any gamepad that will work on the mini, while the xda community doesn't come up with a way to enable the multitouch on our devices
Cheers
You could give this a try:

(Using a Wiimote) - reported to work on the X10, so I don't see why it wouldn't work on an X10mini
Thanks a lot! That was really helpful!
Unfortunately I don't have a wiimote now to try this, I'll borrow one and give it a try.
I'll get back here once I do.
Thanks again!
It works flawlessly!
Thanks again for the tip!

I know I'm reviving an old thread, but I forgot to send the message last time when it was fresh!!
There is an app on the market that allows you to use the ps3 controller via bluetooth, it works very well indeed. The only problem is configuring games to run with this, but I think you can map hardware and soft keys to the gamepad to make a more complete experience. Emulators have been working flawlessly.
The only problem with this solution is that the X10 mini is so tiny that positioning it to play can be annoying, also, battery drain is quite high and the gamepad is bigger then the phone!!
Hope this helps, I'll try to dig up the app name, It's a paid app, but I believe at the time it was 1 dollar!!

Dont forget to klick thanks
Just looked up DroidTV on the MArket. Sounds like an amazing app, but it lists Archos tablets as not appropriate. Thats a shame as it would have looked great on such a big screen ....

Yap Tv Show Stream is quite nice, you can see all series but the disadvantage is that not all movies are in there (maybe because that app is quite new)
You can find it in the market or here

You can't turn it fully off, but you can put it in a hybernate-state
While watching the tv-image on your tab, there's a button (third from the left, I believe?) that does this
Is there a way to stream wirelessly from tab to tv? Will be good for gaming.
Trying to spread the word. We are trying to get this app working for all android devices.

TV is probably not compatible.
I think, if it was compatible, there would be an option on your TV.
My TV (PN59D8000) is compatible but the dual display option doesnt work for me either. It just errors and says "cannot start multi-display". Any ideas?

Uninstall and reinstall smart view tab app. Check your internet connection and ensure both tv and tab 10.1 are connected to same router.
This is a sweet app!
Any chance it could work with the Tab NOT being on the same Network?

[Q] make my ps3 or tv recognize and play media from my phone over wifi

My PS3 and my smart tv pickup my windows computer over wifi enabling me to show pictures music and videos on it. Im assuming this is a windows feature that allows it to show up like that. Is there any type of app that can fake the tv I to thinking my phone is a wi dows media?
I may be using wrong technology terms here but hope what I am saying makes sense
Hey,
There are many apps for that in Google Play, the technology is called "DLNA", just look for that in Google Play.
I use imediashare for displaying videos and pictures on my Sony TV. But with this app you normally send your media to the TV, and not the other way round.
Just try it!

Phil

WiiU Pro Controller

Hi, I've been trying for like five straight days to figure out a method to get the WiiU Pro Controller to work with my HTC One and I've had no luck. The problem is that I need a pin to enter on my phone to pair it when in reality you don't and that's the problem. I can't find a way to bypass not entering a key. I've tried everything and have failed, I'd pay to see someone to get this to work and I think this could be the place. Any help?
Same here. I am looking and will report back if I find something
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk 2
Anybody have info on this? I have had no luck with the PS3 controller or the Wii U Pro controller and would love a solution.
I don't have any experience with the WiiU Pro controller but Android 4.2 broke Wiimote support. I am running a 4.1 ROM to use a Wiimote for games. Also I used to own an HTC device and Sense wasn't compatible with Wiimotes and I had to switch to CM to use one but that was ages ago.. Food for thought.
Hey there,
I've lately been exploring the true potential of the Wii U Pro Controller. So far I have been able to pair it with PC and utilize it flawlessly with a Steam game (Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition), so I've moved on to see it's capabilities in the android world.
I've done quite a bit of research and can confirm the only way you can possibly utilize this controller up till today is with an app that specifically claims to support it. At the moment the only known ones are any of Robert Broglia's apps. He has managed to incorporate a feature called "Scan for Wiimotes/iCP/JS1" which works like magic with the Wii U Pro Controllers. I have been able to connect 4 controllers to it just by enabling the scan and pressing the "Sync" button on each controller. Unfortunately though this doesn't actually "pair" the controllers per say, it seems like it's only a very temporary connection which disappears once you press Home button or exit the app. This limits you to only SNES/GB and the other few apps he has but hey at least it's a start.
Now moving onto the actual "pairing" side of things - I have recently downloaded a number of bluetooth manager apps and joystick input apps to experiment with, and using a combination of a few, I was able to somehow pair the controller!
[See attached, noobs aren't allowed to post URLs ]
HOWEVER - unfortunately I have tried using it with a few apps (mainly N64 ones) and it seems to be totally unresponsive. Either that or perhaps I'm not using the correct Joystick button mapping apps...
Btw I'm still using 4.1.2, during my research I've noticed a lot of people on 4.2 have been unsuccessful with most of what I've mentioned above...

I love the Wii U Pro controller and I am trying everything to get it to work with my device. Like you said, only the .emu apps work.
The devices that worked were:

No, regardless of it being paired, there is not a single way I can use it, all four lights on the controller remain blinking (probably normal till an intended-for-use app instructs it to light only 1 LED), and whatever app I try to use it with, won't register or recognize any keypresses.

I assume your Android OS version is later than 4.1.2?
Supposedly this works, but you may need to attach a bluetooth dongle to your device (yes, even though it already has bluetooth built in):

uh.... i found this app in the app store recently and was curious if this would help anybody... it claims that i works with wii remotes and does work with the ps4 controller~
the reason that i cant comfirm if it works or not is because i dont own a wii u pro controller (yet lol)
i hope this helps! sorry if it doesnt
damn it aparently i cant post links yet..
anywho you can search this in the android market and it should send you to one of his apps

This might help anybody having pairing issues. My nabi 2 has an option for ''bluetooth time out'' before changing it to ''never off'' i couldn't pair my phone. Afterwards it paired effortlessly.
