So I went and picked up this controller for my S3. Worked great with Critical Strike & GTA 3. Im curious if anyone else has it and if there is any program that will allow it to be used with other games like Nova 3 & Modern Combat 3/4.
I only have the USB cord that came with it so I cant physically connect it unless its via Bluetooth.
Thanks. I have tried the Sixaxis & USB/BT app btw. None seem to find it when they scan BT.

Today I scored two PS3 controllers at a pawn shop for $25. I just tried hooking them up to my XOOM with a USB hub, and the system recognizes both of them. Cool. So, I pop open Mario Kart and test out two player mode.
In the SNESoid settings, there is an option for a second gamepad. I mapped the buttons to one PS3 controller to the first pad, and the other to the second, however, they both seem to want to control player one and two at the same time.
So, has anyone been able to set this up correctly?
No one's tried to play multiplayer with a hub?

sorry I can't help with your question, but I was wondering what cable you use to connect a single ps3 controller and what software you need (drivers, etc.) Thanks.
I haven't tried to use a hub and a multiplayer game but i will try tomorrow and get back to you. But my otg host cable of choice is this one. I didn't need any special software, just an emulator and some roms to play. Just make sure you map all the buttons on the emulator.
Yeah, it doesn't work: the USB drivers map controller presses to keyboard input (including the analog stick). Therefore though honeycomb recognizes both devices, the output from them looks exactly the same from an app perspective: just keyboard presses. Same thing goes for using a PS3 controller with an Xbox controller. Best thing to do is wait for wiimotecontroller to support PS3 controllers via Bluetooth or mix in wiimotecontrollers.
That's what I thought.
I even looked online to see if there was a way to hack a PS3 controller to make it output different keys. For example, instead of making the directional pad use the up, down, left and right keys, totally remap it to use something like H, J, K and L etc. Unfortunately, this is impossible.
We need a Playstation 3 bluetooth app like what Wii controllers have.
guyz i have gtab 10.1, with android 3.2 + pershot kernel. Ive installed ff-memless and xpad.ko. But i after i plug in xbox gamepad and try to make settings in shadowgun, 1 axis stucks.

Mb its a problem of kernel?.
Someone have linked any controller that works correct? Plz tell what gamepad it was.

I have a PS3 controller working perfect with GTA3
I use Sixaxis Controller in the market to map the touch and swipe points to the controller.
I have not tried yet, don't have usb adapter yet and not supposed to open until after christmas but I found two articles that may be useful.http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/09/20/tutorial-how-to-enable-game-controller-support-on-the-samsung-galaxy-tab-10-1/

Are you using wireless xbox 360 controller? I can't get mine tab to recognize mine. Could you tell me how you got it to recognize the controller? I ran insmod on the drivers and restart the tab but for some reason it keeps getting deleted.

that's why, then. The kernel modules are "uninstalled" every time you reboot, so you run the insmod command and immediately use the controller! Don't reboot or you have to start again!
I've had the same problem with my mad catz MW2 360 controller, unfortunately it's the only wired 360 controller I have to test with. Using the same controller in the OnLive app worked perfectly though as did sonic CD and misc emulators, seems to be a problem with the right stick in 3D games.
ohhhh... thanks for the info
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.
As the subject states, I was able to connect my WIRED XBOX 360 controller to my Note 1, Nexus 7 and Galaxy S4 Active using a USB OTG cable and play ANY games that support controller. NO mapping required - Dead Trigger, GTA, etc.
As a matter of fact, when I connect my XBOX 360 Controller, the analog stick work in the home screen and application folder.
However, with the Note 8.0.. nada. I know it's not the USB OTG cable because I can connect a memory stick to it and the Note 8.0 recognizes it.
Is there something in the Note 8.0 that prevent game controller to function?

it works with some third party apps (joy/bt center( enabling ime support but does not seem to work on it's own. seems like they disabled hid/game controller supoort or does not come factory activated game controller drivers.
the light on the controller starts blinking after a while, so something is there, but not enough to be any use.

Crap, that's not good. I didn't know that Samsung removed this specifically for the Note 8.0. Doesn't make sense at all, given that it works with pretty much all the Samsung device I own (S4, Note).
I like using the built-in support from the game (Dead Trigger) without installing 3rd party apps.
Oh well, I guess it is what it is. I may just replace my Note with the Nexus 7 then since I play games a lot.
Use ps3 controller. However there are many ways to connect xbox controller. Search in YouTube

TBH, some games might just still work out of the box,
I don't have any of those such games to try to check. (i'm more of a retro gamer)
Thing is if the USB BT/ Joy can use it then so should likely any natively supporting games that support Xbox 360 controller on android.
however for me it does not work on it's own in some of the emulators like drastic DS etc.
Okay so big ol' edit:
None of the games respond to the controllers with the exception of Minecraft. Either wired or wireless. I've tried ds3 and ds4 but they only move the a selection highlight around all the apps and will lunch them. Things like discord and signal will respond to button prompts but the only game to 'recognize' the controller as a controller is Minecraft.
I'm running LOS18.1 and when I connect to a ds4 controller via bluetooth none of the button mapping works. I'm wonder if anyone has had this problem before or currently?
I've installed the 1controller magisk module but that had made no difference.
The games I've tried to play have worked in the past with a ds4 controller and even have mapping for the controller such as Dead Cells.
Yes, I could use an otg cable but I was gonna use my one usb slot for scrcpy to make the screen "bigger."
Oddly enough the only game that works is Minecraft so would other services like Xbox Game Pass also work?
I've seen other forms and posts saying those with the 7T on OOS have had the same issues. But those are at the least a year old and ranged from OOS Android 9-11.
What has me the most puzzled is why would all the controller mappings work on my 5T running LOS18.1?
Okay now a wired ds3 doesn't work nor does a wired ps4. What the?
