you have to download an app that does that for you, Sixaxis controller is one of the best yet paid. AFAIK

the app is called "sixaxis controller" by dancing pixels studios. the app changes your ps3 controller's Bluetooth address so your phone can access it. I found it a bit cumbersome but eventually it worked fine with most games like dead trigger and shadowgun deadzone.

Onlive is... live : controller? Phonejoy?

Pretty exciting stuff. I gave it a shot and it seems to work well, but you really need a controller to go anywhere. Has anyone tried a phonejoy or similar with onlive? Or would you need to get the onlive branded one?
I actually just got my shipment notification from Phonejoy. I'm very interested in seeing if this will work. I'm crossing my fingers since phonejoy states the app must allow keyboard input for their controller to work. Onlive certainly allows for keyboard input. I'll report back once I get my controller.
PhoneJoy partially works
SO far I have managed to get the direction keys to work, but not the regular buttons. I will let you know when or if they are working.
Can we use the sixaxis program and use our wireless ps3 controllers for this?
I'm wondering, has there been any developement? I would LOVE to get my Phonejoy working on OnLive, it would make it simply perfect.

i just emailed onlive.
ofcourse, they want us to buy a universal onlive controller, otherwise they are unwilling to help.
heres a thought, figure out what keys do what on a bluetooth keyboard paired with the phone and then set up phonejoy to use these keys as buttons.

Yes, assuming sixaxis controller works on the SII. Only used it on my Tab

Could anyone provide an update on whether this was successful for you guys? My Kindle Fire HD is arriving tomorrow and I'm interested in using the phonejoy bluetooth controller with it and the OnLive gaming service.
P.S. The noob video for this site is hilarious. And awesome. I hope I'm doing the right thing. :laugh:

Samsung Note gamepad for emulators??

Well found out that it would be cool to play psx games with FPse emulator, works great) on Note with psx gamepad or even to play anything with gamepad on Note,
first to ask you did anyone tried any of this this?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Joystick-it-...ht_3658wt_1193
or
http://www.amazon.com/Joystick-Touch.../dp/B007KCSJI6
Looks like it could be a cool thing...
And second thing, did any one tried to connect any normal gamepad (via bluetooth or via USB), does it works?
I'm not sure which one to buy?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Phonejoy-And...ht_2796wt_1185
or
http://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-Wireless...#ht_5260wt_952
or any other on ebay....
does anyone has some ideas?
There are a few threads on this already, for more information.
Personally I have an iControlpad. And it works great.

I bought this. Works great. Awesome controller for Minisquadron!
In my opinion, nothing beats a ps3 controller with sixaxis app.
Screen controls are just amazing.

+1 definitely agree with that. just sucks cause in some countries the ps3 controllers are terribly overpriced. managed to pick on up off of amazon for 30 bucks with a USB cable and an HDMI cable included.
Hi. Where can I find the sixaxis app?

Pretty sure they mean this:
Sixaxis Controller
I'm also using the sixaxis for emulator type games on my note and it works great.
After a lot of positive comments about the PS3 controller and the sixaxis app i have rooted the note and got the ps3 controller connected via the sixaxis app.
So, then i got n64oid emulator but now am having intense issues setting up a basic N64 controller map with the sixaxis app.
I understand the basic concept of making a keymap, but when i load a screen shot (from any orientation) it always loads in portrait, not landscape mode, and so i am not able to setup the buttons.
Anything boneheaded i am doing here?
EDIT: [solved]
Anyone struggling with creating the seemingly simple N64oid mappings on the sixaxis app, i can confirm that the droid map in this post works fine on the SGN http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22204123&postcount=23
EDIT: [screenshot orientation fix]

Bluetooth gamepad

Since the SIXAXIS doesn't work with HTC phones due to lack of some BT protocols and Tegra Zone supported gamepads need USB Host I'm searching for other solution. I want to play with gamepad in games such as GTA 3 and Riptide. So I find Bluetooth gamepad. My question is : Anyone know whether it will work with One X out not. Maybe someone test it and want to share experiences.

As far as I remember HTC sorted out the Bluetooth stack with the HOX so that sixaxis will work. I'm even sure it's been confirmed in these forums.

Actually the sixaxis works perfectly. You need a PC to set it up. There are plenty of guides on the web. I tested it with Shadowgun. Works great.

Sixaxis doesn't work with desire Z with rooted stock. Problem is on gingerbread HTC sesne rom. On DZ only CM and MIUI work with sixaxis. Mayby ICS with sense is working with sixaxis. I'll try.
edit: sixaxis working with ONE X

Is there a way to use the app without root?
Wiimotes work stock with an app like Wiimote Controller, Phonejoy's also work stock without Root.

+1, I'm looking for it too
Edit: Googling gave me this:
'SixaxisPairTool' (available on the website) and a mini-USB cable. Android 3.1+ users can also pair directly on their devices via USB.
This should do the trick:

How to use controller to play games

Hey guys.
Im on mobile so cant paste a link to the video, but search youtube for "gameklip android"...saw that today and while the clip itself interests me, im more interested in how to play my games with either my wii or xbox 360 wireless controllers or my usb pc controller.
Would love to know this!
Thanks.
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy SIII on MetroPCS!
Depending on the game you can connect the controller with an otg cable for your pc controller and xbox with wireless adapter. For the wii controler you have to be rooted to my knowledge and use an app like bt joystick. Someone correct me if im wrong.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
are you saying it's plug-n-play?!
I have an otg cable...off to try this.
EDIT: yes it is. Plugged in my pc controller and Dead Trigger picked up right away.
Question is now which games support gamepads?
I know some of the emulators will but not sure beyond that, I use sixaxis to map my ps3 controller for nova and duke nukem. It's more of a trial and error thing.

On the right path, but Wiimotecontroller and the handful of other apps I see for using Wii remotes all say they don't work on newer HTC Sense, Samsung TW, or Android JB phones (4.2 specifically). Going to read up more when time permits though, let me know if you are anyone else finds one that will specifically still work on the Sprint SGS3 *Grin* ..

[Q] Ouya CM11 how I can pair a Ps3 Controller (via BT)

Good evening,
I buy an cheap Ouya and install Cm11 with the How tos (thanks for that!) already works great, but I have no idea how I can pair a Ps3 Controller.
Can somebody tell me how it works? I have searched and read many posts, but I dont found an answer.
(Excuse my bad english.)
Thank you
Sixaxis Controller
Thanks,
I tried it with Sixaxis, but so only one controller work. If I pair 2 controller play both
controllers Player 1.
Do you have experience with that?

Pretty sure that's just how it works unfortunately.
I think its the driver. I've used several controllers at once but never had more than 1 PS3 controller.
