my all 120 apps where installed automatically, now first couple questions: Camera doesn't work? and when I connect device to PC my computer won't install usb drive.

Nope, no camera yet

Any suggestions for good games to play on Android please folks?

Also - anyone got the bluetooth PS3 Sixaxis working yet on ICS?

Six axis works fine on cm9, it has done for a long time.

HD games like : Air attack, Blood and Glory and SummitX work very well on CM9.

whooaaaaaa, I only just saw yesterday that things have updated since Alpha 0.6, I'll update to Alpha 2 and try it. If that works this will be the ultimate tablet for me, iPad Slayer!

thanks for the games tips, i'll surely try some!

it does work, like Kreeeee said

it works really well. There's a little bit of lag but that's really my only criticism and it's a minor one at that

steinooo · 4 Mar 2012 at 13:07

Do you mind me asking how you set up the controls per game or emulator?

Don't have such problem with mine, only had to restart TP once to connect to wifi.

Had mac filtering on in my router and must have removed the touchpads mac address by accident, doh!

cheers will also try, if I can get sixaxis working for that (my PS3 pad currently doesn't power on when pressing the PS button :S) it will surely be cool!

What app does everyone use to playback videos?

Kreeeee · 4 Mar 2012 at 20:03

Bs player.

cheers. Mate how do you map your controller buttons with Sixaxis controller? Using Touch Profiles? or am I missing something simple?

Kreeeee · 4 Mar 2012 at 20:34

Do it in whatever app you are using to play games, e.g. snesoid.

I prefer Rockplayer over BSplayer, never had an issue playing anything over network, or on device with it.

steinooo · 5 Mar 2012 at 13:42

cheers for the tips guys. Has anyone tried N64oid? I booted Banjo on it last night and it looked amazing, really hoping to get the PS3 pad working with it for a bit of travel I have this week.

The problem I seem to face with my PS3 pad is that when I press the PS button nothing happens unless it's just been connected to a computer via USB.

Question: Does CM9 A2 cripple the wifi speed if the battery is low? I also have the Modpack installed from Rootzwiki if that matters....

My touchpad has stopped charging via the Touchstone. Any idea how I can work out if the Touchpad or the Touchstone is the issue?

I have booted into WebOS and it still won't charge.

There can be charging problems due to low battery when using CM7/9.

Have you fully charged it using a cable and then tested charging with the touchstone?

Also booting into webOS might not be enough you might need to hold both buttons for 30 seconds to do a full reset. Sometimes I get WiFi problems when switching between ICS and webOS and doing the full reset fixes it.

spudbynight · 10 Mar 2012 at 17:33

Tried all that just now and no luck.

Still no charge from touchstone

Does anyone else have problems with poweramp gestures (up/down) to change album not working? also seems to be stuck on shuffle!

If i re-install it then it is ok for a bit but soon goes back to having problems!!

I'm on cherrykany 0.9.2
