Sixasis App MC3 controller maps - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

I've made a pretty bomb controller setup for MC3 using the Sixasis app. The interwebs have provided horrible info on how to set this up so I just figured it out last night and would love to share! After figuring it out, its pretty friggin' simple.
After you've done the initial pairing add my .map to sdcard/data/com.dancingpixelstudios.sixasiscontroller/profiles
Then, within sixasis app main "page", use the white highlighted dropdown to select the map.
Don't forget to touch "change IME" and select sixasis controller!!
Within the game under options and controller config pick classic as your layout. Adjust look sensitivity there. Its very quick and sensitive now so beware...
Now you should be good to go. This setup feels super dank on this game so have fun!!!

wtf, cool down.. What I first wrote was not to you.. I posted the wrong stuff so I removed it and wrote that I was posting wrong.. NOT you.
What I first wrote was that you can make touch profiles. And after I posted that I read your post again and now understand that you already know that and that was you that made the profile.. So I removed that and wrote a Completely wrong post... Because here on XDA you can't delete posts

Holy **** that setup sounds sick! However, the ROM I'm running gives me the "incompatible device" message after the initial install of most Gameloft games, including my MC2. Is MC3 compatible with our Primes now? If it is I still won't be able to play for a bit until they get the issue worked out, but I'll be sure to use your setup when I can finally get down with poppin' off some newbz.

The new mc3 update works with our primes, but still doesnt show in the market.
I bought, downloaded the app and installed on my evo. Used es file explorers app manager to back it up. It backups to sdcard/backups/apps i believe. Long tap the apk to pop up a menu then touch share. I literally emailed it to myself LOL. Installed on my prime and all ''extra'' files did as need be.
Ive been playing the game and online multiplayer perfectly! Plays just like modern warfare sooooooo fun

Wow that's sweet news But it DOES show in the Market...err...Playstore for me, I just checked.
But see for me, on my ROM, that's not saying much. Because Asphalt 6 and MC2 also show in Market, but after the initial install it says "checking device etc etc, then device is not compatible".
Damnit, I want to try it sooo bad, especially with your Sixaxxis setup...but I'm afraid that even if it shows in the Market and I download it, after install it will fail.
Do you know how good they are as far as refunds? I will know if it works or not within the 15 minute window, so I'm not worried about that. I'll give it a shot as long as I can get my money back if it doesn't work.

Do you need root to remap buttons in the sixaxis app?

Refunds within 15mins are processed by Google and not the developers. You will always get it if within 15 mins.

Im currently trying some different setups on mc3 cuz apparently setting up touch emulation on the virtual sticks is not nearly as bad ass as using the classic setup. I was getting str8 spanked online LOL.

Thank you for that, worked perfectly

Thanks for the profile, works well apart from the right analog stick is really slow to move and the r3 button for knife doesn't work. Anyone else experiencing this ?

I've gotta get a chance to upload the new mapping...it fully fixes the slow movement. Hang tight because I did fix that
The knife is only available when someone is in range

Updated mc3 maps are now up. Look sensitivity is MUCH better and you have to now use the "classic" controller setup. Adjust your sensitivity in the controller options of the game.

hi,
I know the forum does not allow attachments in.map format, but it would be great if you could attach the map to your post.. other folks have added .txt after the .map to attach.
ie filename.map.txt works.. thanks!

Hulu finally! Rooted or Not

I came across this app at the market that was just put up today called DroidLu.
This app will allow you to watch Hulu on our SGT 10.1 without needing any flash hack! It costs 99 cents I would have paid more for this since it made it possible for me to watch Hulu! Now 3.2 has come to our tablet previous hacks don't work.
I can confirm it works!
Currently on Tsk650 V5 GT-P7510
Note that Hulu only works when you run it through Droidlu app. And make sure that you have latest flash player 11
Schuweeeeet ill try it out later tonight

It's barely an app. It's very difficult to scroll on the progress bar, very difficult to adjust the volume. The worst part is that the return button doesn't take you to the previous page. So you have to start all over again when you click on the wrong button. If you hit the lock button, you also have to start all over again after unlocking. So, if you want to want the show from beginning to end without interruption, without any misclicks, without jumping forward or adjusting volume, this is the app you want.

I noticed that to but like all early apps its a work in progress. Dev says that future updates will remedy our concens. Its still a great freakin deal to be able to watch Hulu! This is the only app ive seen so far that can do this. Patience patience

I was able to track down the apk at the link below but I can't get it to play any videos
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-applications/183229-droidlu.html
Has anyone gotten this app to work on a 3.2 ROM? I've tried it on overcome 2.0 and Task 5.0, 5.1, and 5.2 with no luck. When the video starts to load it just closes.
Any one else?
You can get hulu to work using the old method. You just have to remove flash, copy the old .so to /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer, reinstall flash from the market, then use a hex editor to change the plugin variable AND to WIN. I am running galaxy task 5.3 and I just watched Castle without any problems.

Would you mind creating a new thread with a sticky how to?
My experience today:
Search the market for "DroidLu" and it will bring up an app called Flash Video Browser by Dan Lockard for just under a buck. I just found out about it on droidforum, installed it on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and it works! I'm watching Modern Family right now!

Yep, just installed and it works perfectly. I'll give his FlashBrowser a try in a sec, because this is definitely worth $0.99!
EDIT: Spoke too soon. FlashBrowser shows as not compatible with my Verizon 4G LTE tab. I'll stick with the old DroidLu APK (linked above, working) and see if there's another way to donate to him.

[APP][CM9]Evernote/Kindle UI for ICS

If you're running the latest ICS nightly (since 2012-02-02, I think) and use Evernote, you've probably noticed that it not longer displays the tablet UI.
For some reason, the Evernote app calculates width of the screen is 4.xxxx instead of the 7.xxxx required for displaying the tablet UI.
I've modified the APK to ignore the calculation so that the app displays the tablet UI.
I hope you like it.
com.evernote-2.apk
UPDATE: Some people have asked me to look at the Kindle app too.
Looking into it, but it is a little more complex ...
If you already have Evernote, you'll need to uninstall it before trying to install this one.
Tip:
Copy this to /system/app to ensure you'll never lose it ...
That way if you update the app thru the market and lose the tablet UI you can uninstall updates

Thanks a lot for this. Tablet UI is lot better. really missed it with recent nightly....I even tried changing DPI..still no use. Your fix is really good . Thanks a lot..
No problem; glad I could help!

Hey, cool! I read about this in your posts on the user thread. How did you do this? I don't know enough to diagnose it, but I would be interested in digging through a couple different apps in this manner.
Do you have access to the block of code you changed or are you dis-assembling this to make this work? This is a common problem across a few google apps as well (chrome, docs, etc) Just wondering if you had any insight into the root problem.
Yeah, that's why I want to know as well. I saw people asking you to take a look at the Kindle app over in the development thread, and I figure instead of buying us dinner you could just teach us how to fish, you know?
Yeah I disassembled the apk.
Essentially, I searched the decompiled files for the word "tablet" ... When I thought I found what I was looking for, I compared it against the logcat.

Hey guys (and probably gals too) I'm sorry I haven't posted anything yet ... Work's been kinda hectic ...it appears I have some time this weekend, so I'll look into the kindle app ... If I have time (if the kindle is easy), I'll look at aldiko too
Since I don't really use these apps .. screenshots would help, I realize they'd be doctored and/or annotated

Can this be done for Opera Mobile Browser also ? Love it !! Many thanks Kem - El !
this would be great. http://blog.the-ebook-reader.com/2011/12/07/aldiko-ebook-reader-app-updated-for-tablets/ The movie on this page shows what it would look like in tablet mode. When you install it on your nook you should be able to see the phone mode.
you can also download the apk from their own website: www.aldiko.com whithout the market.
FWIW the official Kindle app update that just showed up on my GN claims that it's fixed margins and spacing on tablets. I'm not near my Nook, but let us know if it works.

Yeah unfortunately it's not fixed on the Nook Color or the Touchpad.
I'll upload a picture of the Kindle app and describe the differences of tablet mode and phone mode on the Nook. I am very interested in having my NC as well as my TP displaying the Kindle app correctly for landscape mode. Without the split screen with two pages displayed in landscape mode, it's a long traverse to read a line across the entire length if the tablet. Lol
If you still have time to look into this, I would be very grateful. No worries either way.
Thanks for the Evernote fix!

It is fixed in CM9 on the nook color. I have tested it. The margins and line spacing is much improved. You still cannot adjust them, but it is very readable. Make sure you have the very latest version.

Hi leapinar,
I am on the latest version and the Kindle app is not in tablet mode at 160 dpi. I do see the changes you mentioned. However just to be clear, when you hold your Nook in landscape orientation does the screen split and have two side by side pages like an open book?
Edit: I disassembled the apk, but it is not clear at all to me what is triggering the tablet view/install. I tried a few edits and reassembled the apk and nadda.. At this point I am just blindly throwing darts..
Guys,
Sorry about disappearing ... I was out of town for work for a couple of days and busy on a new work project.
I've looked at the new version of the Kindle app, and yes the margins are better, but having the ability to adjust them like the phone would be ideal.
I'm looking at the code to see if I can just swap out the tablet reader view with the phone view, giving us the phone menu options.
A little slow going ...

Would just like to second this - the app is actually semi-unusable without it being switched because there's no way to access 'menu' (no hard button on the NC and no softbutton shows up in the app).

Modern Combat 3 on Asus TF300?

Does anyone have Modern Combat 3 working on there on their Asus TF300?
I have it for my galaxy nexus, but the play store says its incompatible with my transformer. It would be sweet if it worked though
Doesn't work. Once installed and opened, you'll receive a message saying it's incompatible.
Mabye its supported on build 29 but i was able to install and run it... first time it gave me a license error so i rebooted and it came up fine.. I did notice if i am docked and touch any keys it crashes.. I bought it before root.. now cant seem to get the darn sixaxis stuff working in classic controls...
Oh Cool beans. I guess TF300 is starting to get support from Gameloft. Modern Combat 3 wasn't compatible a couple weeks ago. Now it's good to go on Google Play. Downloading NOW.
Modern combat 3 now has official support for the TF300T as well as a handful of other gameloft games
No NOVA 3 yet though...
Great! but does anyone know how we can rig this up to play with a bluetooth/usb controller so we can really have some fun?

I think if you use the "sixaxis" app from the google play store there's a way to emulate touch functions with the controller. You'll have to map it yourself or find a profile from somebody. I also believe you need to be rooted to get that app to work. I've never been able to get it to work on my nonrooted tablet. Would love to find a solution to this.
Unfortunate gamepad doesn't already work. Some of the functions are there in the gamepad, but you can't target or move properly.
ok I'll work on that as I am on rooted stock. this will be AWESOME if i can get it to work right

Just so it's clear,
You need this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...5ncGl4ZWxzdHVkaW9zLnNpeGF4aXNjb250cm9sbGVyIl0.
You need to pair it via bloothooth with your controller using the process in that app. Somewhere in the options menu for that app there is a way to map touch gestures to the controller. I've never got to it to work cause I'm not rooted.
Downloaded the game and the game just boot loops. Checking license -> Gameloft loggo -> loading screen -> checking license again...
Anyone know how to fix this? I have the same problem on my SGS with ICS.

Swiftkey 3 (keyboard)

To those of you sharks looking for the next best keyboard, this is it. I dl'd it yesterday to run a test drive and this thing is fast - but more importantly, flawless. i havent sent a mistyped txt all day (im a speed typer, but there is an option for precision typers too). I went back to the stock keyboard and it was fail-galore, but, of course, YMMV
-its NOT the same as the swiftkey keyboard in the Play Store. its BETTER
-it learns your typing style more effectively than others advertise, IMO, via social networking/past texts/emails (which ever you prefer)
-its got some pretty nice themes onboard
-its layout is pretty comfortable and doesnt take up space with useless buttons
-its free
here's an article attesting to it's prowess:
http://www.droiddog.com/android-blo...there/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebook
heres a direct dl link:
http://vip.swiftkey.net/sk3beta
EDIT: Out of beta! woohoo! If you owned swiftkey x, check it out cuz you get upgraded for free otherwise it's half off this first week on the Play Store
SwiftKey makes the best Android keyboard, period.
I've been using SwiftKey X for a long while, and loved it. The biggest problem I had was missing the space bar (I'm also a speed typer) and typing the letter b, or something, which it wouldn't autocorrect.
I installed the SwiftKey 3 beta last night, and it's phenomenal. It fixes that problem (in fact, try typing without pressing the spacebar and look at the autocorrect) and is overall even more responsive.
I also just downloaded this and while I don't have anything to compare it too other than the stock, I'm already amazed.
While allowing it to scan my emails, texts, and facebook to figure out my speech mannerisms is unnerving, the results are amazing!
It's like it's in my head. Of course, I'm an ex-blackberry user so I have to adjust to using the correction bar. I still want to type out all my words letter by letter. *rolls eyes at self*
But so far, an amazing keyboard.
Thanks for this. I bought SwiftKey but was digging the sense4 keyboard until I saw this. I love the cobalt skin.

This makes me regret buying the regular SwiftKey lol. Ah well the developers deserve the money.

You'll get updated to it; don't worry. I got SwiftKey X for free from SwiftKey 1. It'd be pretty unbelievable if they didn't give X users 3.
I'm a long time Swiftkeyer myself. Started using the original when it went Beta. Have used every version since.
My only gripe with Swiftkey, is the automatic space after using a period. My email address has a period in it and it is a bit annoying. Especially since you have to type your email like a gazillion times.
One problem I'm having with SwiftKey 3 is that they got rid of the distinct question mark button, and it seriously slows me down to have to long press a key.
Do any of y'all know if it's possible to bring the distinct key back?
Thanks for the share! I love Swiftkey and I glad that they finally have Korean language support (albeit beta) now. =)
Does the haptic work for y'all? I can't seem to get it to work. It's enabled in the string already.

Sure doesn't..
I just checked, and I found the haptic feedback to work with SwiftKey x.
I'll report this through their beta feedback.

haptic working fine for me. you mean while your type right? (just making sure). make sure you set the haptic feedback duration to at least ~20ms to notice it. i'm at 18ms and i like it, albeit it hiccups every now and then because im such a fast typer anything lower than about 15 wont work/is too short to notice
Works great now, thanks!
I also figured out my question mark issue from earlier: you can swipe horizontally across the period button. To the left right you'll get the question mark, and to the left, you'll get the explanation mark. Works wonderfully.
I just don't know why anyone would use any other keyboard.
Thanks so much for this! :-D

yeah it works. I had to turn up the duration of the feedback, and now it works fine. Only things is, if i mispell a workd incorrectly (especially a small word like "Hey") it wont auto correct it for me. it just leaves the misspelled word. I thought its supposed to correct it for ya LOL. Unless im missing something int he settings?

I'm totally new to this so I don't know what the behavior is supposed to be, but I noticed that the corrected word is usually offered as a choice for me to select above the keyboard.
Thanks for this. I had bought swiftkey for my OG evo but this works even better.
Flash?
I have been using Swift Key for at least a year on other phones and have been totally sold on the quality of this keyboard - I wanted to try the beta just to see what is different - but wasn't sure how to install -
I tried flashing and it failed - and there isn't an "AP" per se that i saw which I could install - so how do I install from the zip file you posted? Sorry if I sound like a noob but I am a little confused on how to install this -
I appreciate the help

after you click on the dl link i put in the first post, your browser (or phone) should automatically download the file. it'll say swiftkey3_beta-3(etc, etc).apk, so just move it onto your phone if it isnt already and, using any file explorer or in the notification bar, click on it and install like any other app

Made a small list of "good" apps

They are more tablet (Asus), but they still work on most phones anyway with ICS. Add if you have any!

Nice neat drawing app....

Nice, it was surprisingly thorough and well organized.
Also your google doc is completely open to anybody editing? Not sure you want that. Change the share settings to read only.
@David
My guess is he wanted it open. He invited others to share.

So is this only for Apps in the Market (Google play) or can we add apps that we have saved on our comp? i have Better Keyboard 8.xx and Lock key, but not sure if I'm allowed to post. Can someone verify before I get myself in trouble?

Why aren't they on the market? I suppose you could, as long as you don't post paid apps. Just have to be weary I suppose, the list isn't forcing you to download anything.
Thanks for the list. That was me that you were "cell chatting" with.

You can add them...or at least the name and I'll find the links for them if you'd like.
