Connecting the Wiimote to the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (I/O)

**This is basically the same exact version of the Retail Tab 10.1, also works in 3.1. This method should work on a retail since they're very similiar**

A how to on connecting your Wiimote to the samsung galaxy tab 10.1. I use the following application to connect the wiimote to the tablet.

ok so i have a question: once samsung puts there touch wiz on the GT 10.1 will we not be able to do this and are we going to HAVE to get the touch wiz???

@infernogamer12 This I am not sure of! Will have to do more discovery of how it all works out on xda after getting the update. You will never have to get the touch wiz, you can always ignore the update on any device. I'm not sure if the google I/O tablet will be getting the touch wiz though

@llkentoell k well i just got the galaxy tab 10.1 and if i get an option to download touch wiz im going to delcine because wiimotes are so fun on all my emulators

[llkentoell]

@infernogamer12 unfortunately yes, samsung messes with the bluetooth I've heard. However on any connection through the settings of android trying to connect a wiimote directly won't work. You have to use the wiimote applications to connect them for it to work. If you tried connect to the wiimote using the application then I guess it won't work unfortunately :-/
