Connecting a WiiMote to an android device

Solution 1

As far as I know, you can only connect a Wiimote to a non-Wii device if you use a bluetooth stack/program that allows you to skip the PIN. This is possible a couple of different ways on laptops and such, but Android 2.2 requires the PIN for the first pairing.

However, depending on what kind of phone you have, you can try the WiimoteController app. It doesn't connect on HTC devices that are running the Sense UI, but if you have a Nexus One or you're running some kind of custom vanilla Android ROM on your phone, it should work.

Solution 2

Apologies for answer an old question, but to pair the Wiimote using legacy pairing, you reverse the bytes of the device address and use that as the pin.

    Does anyone know the UUID to connect an android 2.2 device to a WiiMote? The wiimote will not pair, as the wiimote does not require a PIN #.
