After seeing Transformer Prime + Logitech F710 in action, how do we get the same from HTC One X? Tegra 3 was said to support all game controllers like PS3, XBOX360. Does it really work and how to do it so there would be no apps needed like sixaxis and no compatibility issues?
i bought a ps3 controller just for this, but as I sent my first HOX back because of backlight flickering and haven't received a new one yet I haven't been able to try it. I don't think it will work via bluetooth without something like the sixaxis app.
Cant get my ps3 controller connected with the Sixaxis app, the compatibility checker says I'm compatible, used the sixaxispairtool to change the master Bluetooth on my controller to match the phone but when trying to pair it just says no controller found.
There is a video on YouTube of it working on a HOX with stock rooted ROM but I'm using Coredroid.
EDIT
Scratch that, managed to get it working, instructions on the sixaxis devs website a a bit misleading. Makes Shodowgun so much easier
Is it possible to use the Logitech 710 with the HTC One X? If so, how does it work?

I've been reading that the new Transformer Prime supports Xbox controllers. I'm rooted with Overcome 2.something and want to know if I have this ability already. I also read that people have been using a USB dongle that Microsoft sells but I'd like something that is already built in to work. I also have a PS3 controller if that'll work, although I prefer the Xbox controller.
HDMI out and an Xbox controller = big screen NES!!!
since the xbox wireless controller uses a custom wireless protocoll, you can't use it without the dongle. You can use a wired xbox controller though.
I also prefer the xbox controller, but the PS3 controller is better suited for this. Since the PS3 controller uses bluetooth, you can buy a app on the market called "Sixaxis Controller", which allows you to use a PS3 controller over bluetooth with the tab. It's really awesome
EDIT: I also fine the PS3 controller better suited for emulation, because the dpad is in a better position for this.
is there anyway to do this without root? i read somewhere in 3.2 reenabled controller support for 10.1 i have a stock tablet and don't want to root unless i really really need to.
So, just to check, will the Xbox wireless receiver USB dongle work with the tab?

Wondering the same thing. I tried to connect the dongle to my Tab but my controller wouldn't connect to it (just flashed the green light, searching but no connection it seemed).
Is there a way to make the Xbox360 controller work if you connect the dongle to the Tab (or without it for all I care, just want it to work )
I just bought the 30 pin to USB and so far haven't been able to get a wired 360 controller to work but I am running stock so that might be the problem... If I were to root and get like 3.2 or something would this work?

I feel like an idiot, asked this same questions (what do which modules do?) 3 or 4 times now, never got an answer... :S

I just did this, although I haven't tried it yet. Not sure what they show up as when connected though? Going to test it right now
Edit: Blah, the only wired 360 controller I have is a third party one, it showed up but I'm not sure how to use it. I tried the "USB/BT joystick center" app and it wanted me to make a driver by selecting bits of input data directly .
Re: Big NES if XBOX controller works.
Pick up a WII controller - cheaper and closer to the old school NES experience )
Has anyone bought this:
http://www.onlive.com/controller
I want to know if this works in emulators and such, and not just OnLive.
I've tried a PS3 controller connected via sixaxis, and it doesnt work in Onlive. I might consider this if it worked in onlive and emulators.
I'm not certain about the OnLive controller, but in the faq at OnLives site there is this...
---------------------
Can I use a controller with the OnLive Game Service?
Yes. The controllers currently supported are:
•OnLive Wireless Controller (OnLive Game System only)
•Microsoft® Xbox 360® Controller for Windows
•Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Controller for Windows (requires the Microsoft Wireless Gaming Receiver)
•Logitech® ChillStream™
•Logitech® F510
•Saitek® P3200 Rumble Pad
•Mad Catz® GamePad
----------------------
Not sure because I've not tried. But I would guess that one or more of those will do what you are asking.
That said I would like to know the answer to your question as well. Looks like a great controller.
I do have this controller, but I do not have any hd dock or lapdock to test it out for you
He wants to know if OnLive's Universal Controller will work with any of the emulators on his phone, such as SNESoid, NESoid, MAMEoid, and so forth. Sixaxias Controller is an app that lets you connect and use a PS3 controller on your Android device.
I had the same issues with Sixaxis Controller and Wiimote Controller with OnLive. I think this is because both of those are mapping functions to some kind of keyboard function, whereas OnLive's app does not any any keyboard function build into it to use native keyboard. I was able to do limited stuff such as play the "getting started" video because one of the buttons acted like the "s" button on a keyboard.
I have preorder the controller, but I order after they changed the estimated shipping date to the 20th. I don't know if any controllers have been shipped yet. I have heard of some people being able to connect a Xbox 360 controller to their phone with USB adapter for the wireless dongle; so in theory, you may be able to use it with the phone.
Bump, looking for the same thing, anyone tested the controller with GTA3/emulators/etc? Does Bluez IME work?
There's a thread in the Flyer/View forum where a member states that it does work with emulators. I believe that HC 3.2+ is required for tablets and ICS for phones in order for it to work, though.
Has anyone been able to use the sixaxis controller simply by just plugging it in with a usb otg or is it still more complicated than that? Do you still need the sixaxis app for it to work correctly?
I'm also curious to know this
I was only able to pair the controller via otg cable and the app. That's better than always reconnecting the controller with my PC when I played on my PS3 before.
Is playing via bluetooth not a possibility for you?
Shadowgun is working fine for me with bluetooth. I don't like it when cables are hanging around and it's better when I play on my TV via MHL.
I just tried the new function of the sixaxis app which emulates the onscreen controls in Nova 2. That was still buggy for me, only moving worked.
Does anyone know of any good bt controllers that I could use on my one x for games etc?

I don't have my phone yet (coming later today) I wonder if sixaxis works.. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller&hl=en
anyone try it yet?
wont work on sense roms well tbh don't really know about s4.0 but on previos sense based roms sixaxis does not obtain the required permissions for bluetooth. should work on a ice non sense rom running on a one x.
Phonejoy's should work, they worked with other recent HTCs that I'd tried. I get my One X next week and have Phonejoy's, WiiMotes, Datel Retro Wireless, Logitech F310 and PS3 controllers at home. Will let you know which work!

I have a rooted and de-odexed rom running ICS. Have attempted to overwrite the bluetooth .apk as per: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1560647&page=2
Sixaxis won't ID my bluetooth, or pair after changing the master.
After pressing the start button, the sixaxis compatibility fails to connect.
Are there any ways to get sixaxis to work without removing sense completely? Can anyone confirm it working on a rooted vivid/raider??
Not sure exactly what your doing but i found the instructions for pairing misleading.
After changing the master ID you need to unplug the usb cable in order to pair it, instructions doesnt tell you to unplug it until after it's paired. if you try and pair it with the usb pluged in it says failed and tells you to plug it in when in fact you actually have to unplug it.
I have a sense rom and it works fine with it.
I never had to do anything with overwriting the bluetooth apk.
Shouldn't need to adjust anything what so ever, if you have a ps3 pad you can use sixaxis and it works like a charm, you can also set buttons on the ps3 pad to emulate as hardware keys on your phone, as well as emulated touchscreen controls,
You could add the left analog stick and a certian area of the screen, and it'll only go within the radius of that area.
I can confirm that Sixxaxis works like a charm on the HTC One x, I use it for FPSE (psx emulator) Cs 1.6, Shadowgun, Minecraft, GTA III, and BFBC2 ! If you like i can setup a video on how i done everything
You will need to root it and have SU !
Six axis vivid/raider
I've got the stock at&t ics rom(rooted/su) and sixaxis compatibility doesn't seem to connect.
The compatibility checker says click start to show local bluetooth, however, when I start the utility no local address is displayed. Went into setting and checked the address manually.
I downloaded the pairing utility and ran it on my laptop to change the master id.
When I try to pair the controller it says connect via usb. I did try pairing it without it connected.
Without being able to pair it, the checker indicates an error: failed to configure bluetooth. Not a huge surprise. Am I missing some steps? I've tried this many different ways. Thanks for the earlier responses.

AT&T? Is your CPU S4 then? Maybe the Qualcomm uses a different Bluetooth stack because my Tegra3 works perfectly with sixaxis controller app.
If compatability checker doesn't succeed then it probably won't work for you.
Also it must be a genuine controller. Fakes don't seem to work.
After changing master on laptop to the MAC on the app and unplugging the lead you should power on the controller so it is flashing then just press START. That activates the driver and it should show text ending with "client connected:1"
The PAIR CONTROLLER button is for tablets which have USB host functions and can then pair directly without the laptop step.

If there is no address for your local bluetooth on your phone, have you tried checking what the ps3 bluetooth address is and trying to manually search for that address using sixaxis?
It'll usually tell you the address of the ps3 if you had it paired to it last, then just use that address for the manual pair on sixaxis basically

Hello, I've recently bought a PS4 controller and I successfully paired it with my phone but the problem is that it doesn't detect any key presses... I've tried the same controller on PC and another phone (running Android KitKat) and it's working fine.
Is this a software issue? How can I fix it? Have anyone tried this too?
Up. Anyone could test this with at least any Bluetooth controller? I heard that s10 had a similar issue and it got solved by an update.

Most devices just don't have the keylayout files for controllers. Unfortunately, there's no easy way to make them work.
If you have magisk, there's a module called 1controller which you can just install to get that file.
If you don't, I also have the specific file you need to get into /system/etc/keylayout, but obviously, you're gonna need root for that.
I'm having the same problem too.
can you please upload a link

The default connection via bluetooth using Playstation controllers doesnt work. Or it doesnt fully work at least. I have experienced it on my ps3 and PS4 controller. The only way a controller works is from a Bluetooth Controller made for Android. Or if you really want to use PS controller, you need an app called Sixaxis Controller.
If your phone is not rooted, the only way to do it is by using sixaxis and connect the PS controller directly via Wire. The sixaxis for the wired and wireless are different so dont buy it on the playstore right away
If you have rooted Access, then you can connect it wirelessly bia the sixaxis app.
Only then it will work as it should be.
The thing is, it actually works with my low-end tablet. So why not with this expensive phone?
Works fine with my Xbox One controller. Son uses it to play minecraft...

Actually, after September update, I just tried to controller again and it's perfectly working through bluetooth.
Xbox One controller works fine via bluetooth, buttons are already mapped.

I dont know what tablet it is but it might be a feature of the tablet. Ps4 controllers have D-Input mapping while android works natively with X-input controllers. Xbox controllers work right away as it works under X-Input
Sixaxis converts that input to a readable input for the android if youll use a ps4 controller.
Edit: good that you had it working.
