Will my six axis controller work back with my ps3?is it just a matter of repairing it with the ps3 after I'm done each time or the setting are saved and it's just a one time thing?

You have to re-pair it with the ps3 again by plugging it in.

I'm going to have to re-pair it between my Nexus 4 and my tablet every time I switch, won't I?
It makes sense, it's just annoying. Especially because I keep my games in sync using DataSync+.

I know this thread has been done for like a month but I have an urgent question.
Everytime I try to pair my N4 with m ps3 sixaxis dualshock it says
"
Attempting Connection type 1...
Driver Starting...
Could not start driver. Check that the driver has been given permission to run by the superuser app.
Attempting to close server...
restoring previous bluetooth state...
Disconnected
"
I rooted my phone months ago, I have made the supersu app grant all superuser permissions and still nothing.
Can someone please help me?

lol are you chewing gum in the vid?

Ive also been wondering if non sony controllers will work but I dont think they will cause the sony dualshock ones use bluetooth built in to the controller and a lot of the cheap ones I've seen have their own usb reciever over a diff wireless frequency. like a usb you plug into the ps3 to make it wireless. Don't think those will work.

Just wanted to say that Dead Trigger (and some more games like GTA:VC) have native controller support and you don't have to edit the key mapping (but you can do it if you want to change something).
I have setups that fill well to Real Racing 3 and PewPew if anybody is interested.

on your galazy tab what is your controler maping
you should just YouTube it or search the forums mate. That's why the search function exists
Purchase the six axis controller app from the market and you can pair up your ps3 controller pretty easily, the instructions are included with the app. After you get it paired up you'll need to either make your own touch profile, or just do a quick Google search for something like "modern combat touch profiles sixaxis" and the first or second one should be a result from xda forums .

onlive gaming on nexus 7 with ps3 controller?

hello,
I know there is a patch to make any controller playable on onlive but that is for desktop onlive correct? is there a way make it so we can use a ps3 controller on onlive on our nexus 7?? Or do i have to buy there controller to use with my nexus 7? i need something until the nyko android gamepad comes out!
any info would be greatly appreciated....
ty
As a wired controller it worked out of the box with no additional apps.
My setup being OTG adapter and a standard mini usb lead to the controller
Only tested with deus ex and saints row on onlive.
To use as a wireless controller requires the sixaxis app or similar, I've had no luck with this so far although the app makes has the option to show the wireless controller as a sixaxis so it should work.. I might test that one again..
I'm when I did try i could only navigate menus. it was like the onlive didn't accept there was a controller and came up with that message (a controller is required to play this game)
Just tested and what I've said is correct.
Install this onlive app and u can use any controller with it. Onlive will recognize them as an official controller and u can play any game. Including six axis over Bluetooth. http://db.tt/nn0hUg8e

Yes, using the patched app and Sixaxis you just need to tick the 'Enable Gamepad" option to enable native gamepads.
Not really a tutorial, but proof that it works: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwSW1N7rtBw
That works!

Awesome, thanks! Now I just need to have a decent internet connection I guess.
Yes it works well, this is one of the first things I did with my tablet when I got it. Now I just need to figure out how the patch was done, cause unfortunately it uses the on live version before the last which had some performance improvements. Got it decompiled now I gotta dig around in smali. I'll definitely post anything if I can isolate the patch and apply to newest version.

Excuse my ignorance, but how do I install this? I have tried multiple times and it tells me that the install fails because there is a pre existing program with conflicting signatures.
Thanks in advance!!
how do you map?
So it works but the buttons are mapped in a fashion that makes is unusable - where do you properly map the buttons on the ps3 controller (don't see how within onlive)

lol all you had to do was google ps3 controller for android
It's now possible to get the most authentic gaming experience possible by linking a Sony PlayStation 3 controller with your Android device. The app that enables this astonishing combination is Sixaxis Controller, available for download from the Android Market for £1.01.
Before you purchase the app and dust off your PS3 pad in preparation for some old-school gaming action, take note: your phone has to be rooted in order for this to work. If you have no idea what rooting is, we'd advise you stop reading now.
It's also worth stressing that Sixaxis Controller doesn't work with every single Android phone -- the developer has noted that some HTC and Samsung devices are incompatible, due to complexities in how they handle Bluetooth protocols.
Run a compatibility check
The developer has kindly made a compatibility check tool available for free so you can be sure your device is up to the job before spending your cash on the full app. Download Sixaxis Compatibility Checker and run the test to ascertain if you're eligible for some controller-pairing goodness.
Lol and all you had to do was read the OP properly. Sixaxis Compatibility App by Dancing Pixel needs a PC.
You know, like the one he says he doesn't wanna use?

I must say I'm quite disappointed in this game. Even with hamdirs mod on the lowest setting I found 10 in game seconds is actually 22 real seconds, you can't tell me that's because of the device.

What do you mean? I'm saying the game is slow. It IS smooth, but overall slow, not really good for a racing game. And it seems its not just me. Upgrading to 4.2 has given a slight performance increase, but it's still in no way as fast as it should be. Ea has said they are working on it but (one really wonders what devices they tested on when everyone seems to have this problem =S)

It is the device. I have found that being overclocked causes this time warp deal. Use your preferred clocking app to set a profile so your cpu only goes to 1.3 ghz while that game is being played. Makes a huge difference.

Yes but the HTC oneX is our chip at 1.5 and it has the same issues.
The mod that got made by hamdir was primarily made to address the issue you're talking about. The game was pulling up the 1.5ghz profile and running like ****.
But even with the game set to the 1.3 settings and the tablet or phone at 1.5 its still slow.
I'm really starting to think this is on purpose though. I flashed trinity and clocked it up to 1.7 GHz and 700mhz gpu and it was buttery smooth but still slow. Even with the mod at 1.3.
And ea seems to be doing their old trick of flat out ignoring everything =\

Change the control method to an onscreen steering wheel and it should work, tbh I find it easier to play via the tilt method as EA didn't think too hard about the controls :silly:

note 3 PS3 controler

I have an UNROOTED note 3. I purchased the official Samsung OTG cable to connect my sixaxis ps3 controler to the note 3.
phone. I have sixaxis checked under language and input.I hit the ps3 button and it just flashes for a while and turns off. The phone recognized that a usb device is connected.
You still need sixaxis app. To configure everything. With root the only difference is blue tooth versus being connected through OTG.

I just ordered a new otg cable to see if that is the issue. Anyone want to spend some time and do a small right up. Every video I;ve seen show you just hook it up and it works.
