[Q] Turn Xperia play into game console on mac - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
i'm new around here. I've been searching on google for a while now but i can't find what i wanted to search for, so i decided to post a thread.
Does anyone know how to turn Xperia Play into a game console on Mac? and is it possible ?
What i meant by game console is: playing games on mac by controlling with the Xperia Play.
By the way, i'm not a native speaker . Sorry for my bad english.
Thanks

A quick google search revealed a free app called "AIO Remote". It claims to be compatible with linux, pc, and mac.

Tried messing with AIO for a couple hours to get my play working on my PC, couldn't figure it out though. I feel like there has to be a way to make this work with the PLAY. Someone a bit more tech savvy should check this out and make a profile and upload it, because I'm stumped. That would rule.

Did you tried PC con app?
You have to be on same wifi network as PC. It works on Windows, but program for PC is java file that, when started, it opens window in browser with settings for connections. I don't know if Mac have java support, but you can try it
App is not perfect, but once connected, you can map keys in app that you use in game (like, WASD is up-left-down-right).
Touchpads don't work on ICS, but it might work on gingerbread (didn't test that app a long time)

[Q] Control HTC Evo through Computer

Hey recently ive decided that I want to replace my stereo in my car with a mac mini and an external tough screen. I first thought I would try to use the HDMI feature of the Evo to view my phone on the screen, but I would want it to be interactive on the screen. So then I decided I should find a program that will allow me to use my Evo through a usb cord so the Evo displays on in a window on my mac or windows pc and i can interact with it from there. Does anyone have any ideas on how to make this work? Or does anyone wanna take on this project?
There is a thread on this topic in Q&A. I saw it maybe 2 days ago. Has a few suggested apps to control your evo via pc or vice versa.

hahaha i know. but those run through the web and i cant share the same connection if im creating the wifi form my phone.
and the ones that i found that go through usb, which is 1, refreshes and 4 frames a second =/
you could wire up a wifi router..
Here's the thread he was talking about: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971209
Anyway...
I used this: Droid VNC Server (FREE, requires root)
And this: VNC® Viewer Free Edition 4.1 for Windows (also free)
It's pretty choppy, but it works.
If you don't have Windows, pretty much any VNC viewer will work, there's lots of them out there (Google it).
Appreciate it. And yea. The last two days I've been doing research and trying out different ones, and everything had been laggy or choppy. I made this hoping to find a hidden gem that worked perfectly or someone that knew how to get it working flawlessly

Try mymobiler, it works perfectly for me. Just go google "mymobiler", it is the first result comes up.
Google android screencast, as long as your phone can be detected by adb it works great!

Yop.
Up! I'd like to have it too. I have an "incompatible" device too which actually runs ICS x). I downloaded this app on a compatible phone to get the apk but I couldn't find where it was on the phone and when i used a software that saves app on sd card it said it was "private" and i couldn't save it.
FFS it is a free app, why is it so hard to get it?
May be you could give us a link Jughead101, I searched but didn't find.
Trich'
i'm using chrome extensions, its name was apk downloader which can download apk directly from google play, you can found it at google
Yop.
Thx a lot dude! This will help me a lot in the future but it actually doesn't work for this particular app! I don't understand why but it works for every app i tried except this one. Could you pm me the apk file or something?

I know. I tried a lot of things. And till now its almost impossible to get the apk. I'm searching for days, and with no result so far. I realy want the cyman mark 2 apk for my LG optimus black. but it keeps saying that my device is not compiteble. I tried the google chrome extension(doesn't work with that app). I tried to modify my phone so google play can see my phone like its compiteble, but that won't work either. Somebody have any ideas the get the apk?
Hey could you give me a link how to make google play think my phone is compatible? I'd really like that even if it doesn't work for this app ^^.
Btw i asked the developper to send me the apk (thx it's free, we never know xD). I'll keep you in touch world .
Edit:
Ladies and Gentlemen, no answer from dev but there it is!

Best Way?
Get a browser that supports adblock.
Some people were saying that if you're a Recognised contributor you won't get ads (I never had them in the first place because I use adblock)

Whoa, who uses IE nowadays anyway? Chrome + Adblock is all you'll ever need.

There is another way to stop ads, and not sure how well it works, and since I don't use it.
Google for "adblock hosts file".

No need to be so defensive. I tried to help you get rid of both the adverts which are annoying you and the horror that is Internet Explorer. Plus, if you have an Android phone (chances are you do, being on XDA) Google is already 'watching you', and far better on your phone with all of the location data and stuff than on your PC . Speaking of Android, using Chrome would give you much better integration with your phone (again, if you have an Android phone)

GTA Vice City Custom Playlist

Hi
I just got gta vice city working fine on me phone.
There is no problem.
But i want to add my own playlist in game. I heard that in ios, you have to sync stuff and bla-bla...
So is there anyway to do it in android?
Editing/modding radio station or something?
I searched but found no results.
Thanks.
Well idk .
can you send me the links you have got this game ?
and which rom it works on?
Well buddy
Its a paid game and i just cant post links that way here, against rules.
So, any solution to my problem?
anyone please
I don't know if this works but I read somewhere that you make a playlist, name it VICECITY restart the game and select tape deck as the radio station to listen to...
Sent from my SGS3
Custom playlists (Tape Deck) only work on iOS devices apparently.
I cant post links but if you go to support dot rockstargames dot com and search for "Custom soundtracks in Vice City" you will find the article with the note saying: "Note: Custom soundtracks supported on iOS only."
If somone else wants to post the link that would be helpful thanks
Yeah I know that.
But isn't there anyway like replacing current radio station?

Could you not just go through in game settings, music volume to off, and then play music from your device while playing the game.
I might not of full understood your question but its the same thing.

There's a way to replace the radio stations on GTA3 for Android. Maybe it can be done the same way. You'll have to search it though coz i can't remember the link.

There are apps like "mirror" and "weak control" but the main issue is that screen recording may not work on your galaxy s2 depending on what rom/version of android you are using. You can then use a google chrome plugin to view the stream from the computer.
But i do know that using mirror op sender on your phone and mirror op receiver on your pc seem to work regardless of whether the others work. I suggest that you set the codec to .h264 and set the quality to medium otherwise you will get an appalling frame rate.
more quoestion
can you tell me where can i find these google plugin?? you have some guides in youtube?
VNC Server
Search "droid VNC Server" on play store. I can't post any links yet.
Needs root access though
