Tv-out - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys
I bought a tv out cable over ebay recently tho it hasnt arrived yet.. i just wanna know if anyone has used a rom that they can confirm works with tv out. Cm7 would be preferred. Im aware there is a kang of cm7.2 with tv out working but the link and thread are dead so if anyone can post it, ill love you forever.
On a side note, does anyone know for a fact that my wiimote will not work with n64 on cm7 or the vibrant?
Thanks in advance guys

Go to download.cyanogenmod.com
Go down to Vibrantmtd
Then scroll down until you see CM7 or CM9
TV out works in CM7 but only on stock kernel
While in CM9 works with any kernel!

As long as you are using a non-Samsung ROM/kernel, the wiimote should pair just fine. You will have to download an IME app for it from the market though. I can't remember what the app was that I used. Search for wiimote and that should get you what you need.
I had it running back in the days when GB roms on the vibrant were being released here. Made playing Mario 64 a lot easier than with the on screen virtual buttons

Last I checked it lacks Hardware acceleration though so beware. If you are to try to play any video that is 480p or higher it probably won't play.
For example if you try to show the videos you just took with your phone in the big screen (like I had tried) it won't work, so you can say it's a bit crippled version of TV-out. If you want true TV-out you have to try Froyo derived roms ... sadly.

Sorry I was referring to the video capabilities of Tv out, didn't try gaming though...
Also the quality does not seem to be as good/clear as in Froyo days'...

[Q] bluetooth remotes (wii and PS3)

I know the wii remote works, looking for something with more buttons for psx and n64 emulating. Used the search button for hours, and heard people getting it to work, but no cold hard evidence.
I am willing to shell out some cash on this one for once. Either that or i'll be investing in a PSP for portable emulation.
Pretty sure ps3 controller isn't possible yet. But if you're looking for more buttons, just use the classic wii controller. Or the pro version or whatever. Not the most portable option. But definitely gives you more buttons.

What rom(s) does the wiimote work with? Havent done much with gaming on the phone but I thought I read it didnt work.... (happy to know that isnt true)
It works on miui for sure. And quite possibly jts aosp

Definitely not true. The fascinate doesn't have any sense roms. What is required is HID support. Which for the fascinate, only miui and maybe aosp and cm7 alpha. I have only tested on miui. But I know no current SC or darkrevenge can use it.

Yeah there was a thread about this a while ago. Only aosp based roms have HID support. So basically we have to wait for source if u want to use one of those roms and have everything working.

why cant such support be ported to a tw rom? cant things like this be just a issue of transferring drivers.. i know its prob more difficult than that, but i just want to understand it better.
HID bluetooth profile for fascinate???
So I just happened to have a similar issue. I really wouldn't have opened the wound but this was last hit on about 8 months ago. Now my fascinate has the gingerbread update... the 2.3.5 update if you will. As anticipation has failed us, they did , again, fail to include a bluetooth profile that supports HID devices.
I have read about CM's mod cm7.1 supporting this profile, but my situation is a little bit more unique.
I just purchased the Brookstone roll up keyboard (bluetooth) and can recognize it but obviously won't pair or connect. I have tried a number of apps that claim to give you smoother function and better bluetooth support, but as with any good app, Google has stripped it of it's gems.
as mentioned I have only read briefly that cm7.1 is a rom able to make this happen.
My question now is, after 8 months, has anyone found a solution to the HID bluetooth profile issue, and if it requires rooting, how do you do this ... using ubuntu...
... be gentle (I just watched the noob video)

N64oid Discussion [NO WAREZ!]

So N64oid 2.0 (and subsequent editions) has come out and I'm wondering what everyone's experience has been playing it on their 3VOs.
So far I've only played Zelda and it's been pretty great over all. It crashes every few minutes so I have to back up often, and the sound gets a little glitchy so far. I've found that OC to 1.8 GHz and setting frame skip to about 7 or 8 seems optimal
Any other positive experiences with n64oid or other emulator apps?
Please don't post Warez here or the thread will get shut down.

Well, evo3d ownder tell us with n64 games you play, if they have glitches and how much fps you play them ingame
It's good but I can't wait until Bomberman 64 works.
Since the Evo 3D supports the bluetooth HID profile, then the Phonejoy will work - heres my demo with the HTC Sensation (forward to 3:30):
More info here including stuff on the new Phonejoy version with analog sticks! I highly recommend it!
does anyone have the devs email? or where you can find it? i bought the original and when he pulled it he said that he could replace it with the updated one when it came out. thanks in advance!

Has anybody had any luck with wiimotes or ps3 controllers?
Wiimotes and PS3 controllers will not work, that hasn't (yet) changed.
I played The Ocarina of Time, overall is good. Sounds skips here and there but so far is solid. I've been playing Starfox 64 though, controls are a bit hard but just takes some time to get used to.
So with all the new ROMs popping up, is anyone aware of a Dev that is working on replacing the bluetooth stack to something that will support using the wiimote or is that even possible until we get CM or something similar?
...............

wiimote support [request]

I know sense and touchwiz (htc/samsung) phones dont support the proper bluetooth profiles for controllers like ps3 or the wiimote, but i believe we should band together and do a bounty for someone to develop such a method (kernel?) that allows for them to connect.
currently im on cognition beta 4 for galaxys2 att, so if i can stay on cognition and be able to connect to ps3 or wiimote id be forever happy!
Works on cm7

Sure does. Personally used and loved it. (Before I bought a dual shock 3)
It works because CM7 , being an AOSP ROM, actually uses a standard BT stack. (Come on Samsung!)
With that said, I'd be in extreme favor of any Dev who could mod Samsungs BT stack to work with the Wiimote.

Ohhh yeah it does, I remember reading that. The only problem is you cant use MHL Tv out which is pretty much the whole reason I would want Wiimote support, haha. I did hear though that ICS's Bluetooth stack is modified to work with the Wiimotes, so once that rolls out, we could have both. but. only time can tell :\

Doesn't work over here for me..
I just ran across a thread in the i9100 forums that said it now works on stock CM9 but I can't get it to go.
Even if I manually enter the address of my Wiimote in Wiimote Controller, instead of the BT PIN code screen popping right up, now I get a notification in the notification bar that I have a pairing request. Clicking the notification just brings up the PIN code entry screen.
I guess both the Wiimote and MHL are working for the i9100 with CM9 and the Samsung stock ICS but doesn't work for me on the i777.. I haven't tried the latest ATT ICS leak but I may give in and try it tonight after work..
i777 CM9-based kernels cannot pair with a Wiimote yet due to unavailable kernel sources. Also, the leaked official ICS firmware can.

I gave the latest ATT leak a try (im on it now actually) and its still the same. WiimoteController is still asking for a PIN to pair with the controller.

I can't remember which leak I was using... I thought it was LD3. It was right before it was announced that they were responsible for hard bricking, I think. I know it was before Task removed them from the post he put them in.

GTA 3 for Android.

I decided to grab this today, seeing a few comments about some Nexus S users saying it works fine. It's only $5, so what have I got to lose.
It seems to crash after the title screen, phones goes all black screen and stops. Anyone else have any luck? I'm running CM7.1 with the Trinity 1.44GHz kernel. I'm going to try different rom and kernels this evening.
I'm interested in this too. We may have to use chainfire 3d?
How do you buy it if your device is incompatible?

I sent an email to Rockstargames NY explaining the situation with FC on the Nexus S. I will let you guys know as soon as I receive a response. I would imagine it would be hard to optimise applications for every different hardware/software combination but I am pretty disappointed in RS that they didn't think to test on the NS considering it's a dev phone.
Like someone previously stated, at the time of my download there is no mention of compatibility with any specific handset so I assumed it would work. I'd say this will be fixed soon, so I won't be after a refund (happy to wait!) but hopefully they respond quickly.
Real nice on my atrix, got it working with sixaxis but the controls arent mapped so will have to work it out by trial and error. Get in/out of car is F and the analogue sticks work out of the box, hopefully someone will work it out and post a list
I bought it this morning and it runs great. I'm on a Samsung galaxy tab 10.1 running galaxy task v8 and pershoots kernel oc'd to 1.4GHz. It has occasional lag but its lag that existed on the ps2. Overall I'm happy and it was £3 well spent.

Really want this game
Was just saying to myself the other day how my ns could last be with me for years to come. But being able to play this game would easily make it worth upgrading. Anyone know how the hardware compares to ps2? I would imagine it to be about the same or a little better...

Any love for the MK802 IIIS?

Just ordered one....Not alot of support as of now..
Any wifi or bluetooth problems?
Looks like the ROMs are inter changable?
Looks like a nice stick with a ok price...not a quad core tho..
Is the stock software good, or must to upgrade to the 1.7?
Sounds like it was a real bad idea to buy this stick? bummer....

Nope they are an awesome device - personally the latest firmware from Rikomagic is stable but I much prefer the custom roms over at Freaktab forums - check out the rom by neomode
I have used maybe 3 other ROM's and this blows the rest out of the water - personal preference though....
Just got one myself. Great device. Hours of fun to be had. For the price you cannot go wrong.

Hi,
Haven't tested bluetooth, but I can tell I don't see serious wifi problems. I left my MK802IIIS up for 1+ day and connection remains stable. However, ping times tend to be too high, considering that the device is 1 meter away from the WirelessN router.
On short, keep it near the wifi router and it should be OK.
Yep, there are many ROMs, I read that Finless ROMs would be cool. There are also Linux distros compiled for this stick, though there are some problems(eg wifi don't work). For more Linux infos google for "Pic Untu", "Linux on mk0802iiis" and "Ubuntu on mk802iiis".
One thing I noticed: after a couple of hours of continous desktop usage (installing from Google PlayStore, browsing, surfing through all Settings, and so on), the device tends to become very warm (almost hot). However, I haven't witnessed (yet) any device stability problems connected with its temperature.
