I have been trying to hook up my PS3 controller to my i747M S3 with Bell and nothing happens. It's an original PS3 controller with an OTG cable.

I was able to pair a PS3 controller with my AT&T S3 using the sixaxis program on Market Place. You have to run a configuration program with the Controller hooked to your pc to match with your phone. Once done, you should be able to pair it.

Sweet thanks dude gonna try this out
Oh yea!? Thems fightin words....
I've used sixaxis on every recent android I've owned with no issues. That said, I use an otg cable as well without issue, it just takes about a minute or so for it to start working. Still haven't found an otg cable that fits tightly though.

Love my sixaxis here too + hdmi out...
Only downside is that you have to manually pair the controller every time you want to game instead of it being ready to go. Other big hassle is that you have to create your own button mapping profile (or google one) for each new game that you want to play. Wish there was a good app to centralize most of them. Would have to be a root app, though, in order to save 'em into the sixaxis config dir: /data/com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller/profiles/GameName.map
fyi - this guy makes an s3+ps3 controller mount: http://buy.thegameklip.com/
for a few dollars more you can also have him include short usb cables to connect the controller, which according to him doesnt require root... unlike the bluetooth method.
i ordered the mount, but im still waiting for amazon to ship my ps3 controller. its nothing super amazing, but does the job.

that hdmi out is so laggy I couldn't use it ended up sending it back to the store.
+1 on the app perhaps starting a bounty to host all the maps for tablet and phone model although I rarely game, it does a few minutes to conduit the map

You guys might have heard the new N64 Emulator for Android came out. I know we can't use the wiimote, but is there any other sort of device/controller that is compatible with our phones? Thank you for your time.
Its there anyway to get the wii remote or the ps3 remote to work on the epic? Is it a software or hardware limitation?

Software, once we get cyanogenmod working then it will be a go.
if there a reason that other roms don't have that support? From the looks of it cm7 will be a ways off before we see anything official.

I was wondering if those guys were going to work on this. Apparently you can use a wii mote with the Nexus S because it uses Google's bluetooth stack instead of Samsung's. We just need someone to work on making those changes for us.

I would like to use my epic as a game controler on my asus g60 laptop.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
Just picked up a PS3 contoller and got it paired with my Epic without any issues.... the key re-mapping works fine, but I haven't been able to get the touch screen mapped to the analog sticks.... seems to not work with our Epics (yet?).
After picking up Modern Combat 3 (a different level of cool!), I decided to plunk down the cash for a PS3 controller. Can't get the controls working for it though. Bummer.
If anyone has a fix in mind, would be much appreciated.
Edit - the latest version of the SixAxis Controller app is fully functional with SGS Epic 4G! Playing Modern Combat 3 with a PS3 controller is very cool and works flawlessly.
I have been in contact with the Erland, the developer, and it is also worth noting that there is likely lower latency using a controller than using the touch screen! The processing needed to interpret the touch screen inputs introduces add'l lag.

Not the sixaxis app ovbiously but I know there's an app that is made for the Wii controller. Don't know if it works on the epic but if the sixaxis does that should to all it is messing with bluetooth configuration and drivers....
Sent From My Cyan Samurai
I can confirm that sixaxis controller app is specifically for the PS3 controller.
The app has been around for a little while now, but what is new to us Epic owners is the touch screen emulation. You can now map analog controls and digital buttons directly onto the touch screen.
For example, take a screenshot of Modern Combat 3 in dual stick mode, then import that screenshot into sixaxis touch profiler. You can then overlay controls of various types anywhere on the screen you desire.
For quake 3 arena, I have a combination of screen mappings and phone button mappings for the ideal setup.
I was playing on a 32 player server 2 nights ago and ended toward the top of the charts playing on my phone! I told the guys in the server and they thought I was bs'ing.
This app is killer. And our epics are really holding up as gaming machines! I think we still have one of the best gaming phones around. Even the tegra-specific stuff looks just as good on Epic. This screen kicks butt on the xperia play to boot.

Yes, but realize that what you posted is shipping from China and is a China-ripoff of a PS3. In other words, the quality can be widely variable. Plus, shipping to the US for that is stated as taking 10-25 business days (remember, business days are M-F only, sometimes Saturdays). So just keep that in mind when you make your purchase decision. I tend to buy things on occasion from China, but I personally try to avoid a lot of electronics items. Just FYI.

Thanks, but I was just using it as an example of the hardware, and not what I was going to actually buy
This Epic post as brought to you via Tapatalk
This app works pretty good. I use it to play old emulator games like sonic and sup mario. As for the china controller comments, like 2 years ago i ordered 2 controllers for 44 bucks on ebay and i was stoked but then they arrived and had what appeared to be 2 thumb drives packed with em. I figured sweet this is an unexpected bonus. Then i figured out when the controllers wouldn't sync that they were how those cheap @ss pos controllers comunicated with the system instead of bt. So beware the to good to be true deals from china.

You take a screenshot of the controls in nova or anyother game.... and import the screenshot into the sixaxis app and setup your touch emulation

I am trying to figure out how to setup the touch profiles to play games I bought (9mm, Asphalt6, BackStab, Captain America, Modern Combat2&3, N.O.V.A. 2). When I take screenshot through CM7 power button, I end up with a vertical picture of the horizontal game. Any help would be wonderful, also wish someone would make a Sixaxis Controller app Touch Profile. I would do this, but as you can read I am not the right person for the job lol.
Well...this is just an idea. I don't know what you guys think, but maybe this could be a substitute for HDMI. Buy a mini Android PC to connect to an LCD monitor like this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/MK802-Mini-PC-Android-4-0-WIFI-Google-IPTV-Smart-TV-Box-DDR3-1G-CPU-A10-1-5GHz-/160878065778?pt=US_Internet_Media_Streamers&hash=item2575147872, and then connect with AirDroid... it doesn't sound expensive... it would almost be like having an adapter but it would require more work to get working (plus more powerful, since it's a computer)...

If you get a MK802 MkIII for not much more it's a lot more machine than the Play. Then you'd just want to work out how to use the play's controls on it

Mmm not sure if you can do it? I know you can use a wireless P3 controller but it's because of Bluetooth.
