Xbox controller with Xoom 4.0? - Xoom Accessories

I've seen videos of folks connecting an Xbox 360 controller via the Motorola otg cable on honeycomb. So I bought the Motorola otg cable from amazon to my wifi Xoom 4.0.4 connected my Xbox controller and nothing.
Has anyone got this to work?

Is it a wired controller? This should work, as it's a USB gamepad.
Wireless controller via dongle, or via play n charge kit, won't work.

I have the play and charge cable. What other cable can I use?

play and charge doesn't do anything AFAIK,
supposedly the windows wireless dongle will work (you might need an app on your xoom as well)
PS3 controller via charging cable (mini USB) and host cable works just fine.

Play n charge cable doesn't even work on Windows.
I haven't seen anyone get the drivers working for Xbox wireless dongle.
What works: PS3 via USB (as said above), PS3 bluetooth via Sixaxis app, Wiimote via an app (unsure which), or any cheap <$10 USB gamepad.

Wired Xbox360 controller works.

sixaxis controller pairing

do you reckon there is any conceivable way that you could pair your controller directly with your phone?
the app is great but if you want to use your controller for your phone and for ps3 it cant be a bit of a ball ache as when you plug it back into your ps3 it pairs back, and then if you wanna use it with your phone again you have to go back and pair it with the pc.
USB OTG host cable
Cool. Does this require any additional software or does it just pair automatically?
Do you think it would make any difference if I got a micro USB to female regular USB (as oppose to mini USB for the controller) as it would then be more versatile and could possibly use with other USB stuff? I could still plug the controller in through the ps3 USB charging cable?

In Sixaxis Controller all you need to do is press the Pair Controller button. If you don't have anything connected "No controller found - please connect it via USB cable" will display in the log.
This is the cable I got. I just plug in the controller to the USB-USB mini cable it came with to the host cable and the host cable to the phone.

Hdmi Dock

Is there a dock that charges and does hdmi out? Thinking this would be cool to play emulators or GTA on my big screen, paired with a wiimote or ps3 controller
To connect to the a TV you will need an MHL to HDMI adapter like this. I'm not sure if it charges at the same time, but it should, being that it connects via the USB port on the phone. If you search around the web, you'll definitely find much affordable deals. Cheers!

at least, if not charge, it maintains the charge level.
from your link:
The HDTV Smart Adapter supports HD signals up to 1080p. Connects directly to a standard HDMI cable for easy connectivity to home theater or monitor. Requires power from a wall charger. Can connect directly to your MHL-Enabled mobile phone to create an HDMI docking station. Requires wall charger (sold separately) to power the adapter while in use. (HDMI cable not included)”

There are some other brands, more afordable. Have any one tested any of them?
another question, can I connect a usb controller and still charge the phone and have it output to tv or am I too wishful in my thinking

You cannot connect more than one USB cable to your phone, so unfortunately that is not possible. Which controller exactly do you need to connect to your phone?
If by any chance you are planning to use a PS3 controller, pairing it with your phone through Bluetooth and using the Six Axis Controller app is the best way to go.
Edit: In that way, you will still be able to connect the phone to your TV via the MHL cable
if you hsve a frys electronics in your town, they have this item for $24. WORKS WELL.

How can I replace my OUYA with a Nexus 7 2013?

Sorry, if the title is a little bit fuzzy. I'm disappointed by my OUYA and want to replace it with my Nexus 7 2013. To do that I need the following features
connect to TV for Audio and Video
connect a wireless controller
charge while playing
do all that without rooting
So lets check the list:
Connect to TV: It seems I can't use Miracast for gaming, because of lags. So SlimPort is the only option here?
Connect a wireless controller: I already have an Xbox 360 and PS3 controller. The last one seems to work wireless only via root - no option for me. Xbox 360 seems to work wireless only via OTG and the PC adapter. But can I use OTG AND SlimPort on the same time?
Charging: I already need the USB port for SlimPort and OTG (if this is possible), how can I charge the Nexus on the same time. Only with Qi? Or can I use a USB hub or something like that? But does that work with SlimPort?
Thanks for help!
Slimport. It gives you Hd output and can charge your tablet. If you have issues with slimport charging you could get a wireless charger to lay the tablet on.
As for you controller most regular bluetooth controllers worth fine without root

Xbox 360 controller support

Hello. Is there any solution to make Xbox 360 controller working on Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2?
Did you try an OTG cable together with the wireless receiver?
I have wired Xbox 360 controller and I have connected it with OTG cable, but tablet found nothing.

My Tab Pro 8.4 picks up a wired Xbox 360 Afterglow + OTG just fine. Plug the joypad into the OTG connector first and then the OTG into the tablet. If that doesn't work, I wonder if you have a bad OTG cable or controller connection? Does it even light up? Maybe try testing it with a different OTG cable or another controller.
The only problem I've run into so far is only the D-Pad will work with RetroArch, and none of the other buttons register. But all of the buttons work fine with the regular home screen and the Nostalgia.NES app. This behavior has thrown me for a loop.

Connecting an Xbox controller

Hey guys, I just got the Razer phone and I'm trying to connect a wireless Xbox 360 controller to the device. I'm using an otg cable to the wireless dongle but it doesn't pick it up, I've done this with several of my old devices all of witch were HTCs. Is there any software I need to install? It worked out of the box with all my previous phones, no root or additional software.
Maybe the issue is in the otg?? I connect a ps4 controller via Bluetooth.
Does the phone support USB OTG ?
I have seen that the nextbit robin phone does not and razer acquired them to make this phone.
It does support otg and the cable is not the issue, it's the same cable I used to connect it on my previous device.
Indeed, Razer Phone has OTG support and it works with pendrives, keyboards, mouses but doesn't work with my wired Xbox 360 Controller...
Any ideas?

As far as I know, the thing doesn't HAVE proper controller support.
Except maybe the Razer Raiju Mobile that just came out.
Razer Tech Support said there's no OTG or controller support.
I plug my DS4 in directly to the phone, nothing. I plug an S8 to the controller with the same wire, recognizes it fully.
This phone is the most finicky device I've ever dealt with.
