In theory - yes. It's a bluetooth controller, so unless they did weird protocol stuff like Sony did with the Dualshock 3 it should at least connect. Whether or not your PC sees it as a game controller or not is dependent on whether or not drivers exist for it or if it can use some form of "generic" bluetooth gamepad drivers, if those exist. If there are no drivers then someone will have to write them, though this is not a terribly difficult thing to do, since the drivers just have to read the inputs from the BT stack, then translate them to Xinput calls - pretty simple stuff. Note that I did not say EASY, just simple - an experienced coder/tinkerer could probably make them quickly, but a person lacking knowledge of how to deal with a bluetooth stack or the Direct X interface would have to learn those first.
Do some googling in case someone else has already tackled this subject elsewhere, and if not then consider putting up a bounty for them - as I said, it's quick money for an experienced programmer.

Well...
The pc does not detect the game controller as anything. Thats the issue. Is there a way around this ?
Thanks for the reply though, quite informative.
so mine was detected as "amazon fire game controller". within windows it is possible to calibrate it. but no game recognized it as a usable controller.
windows 8 pro 64bit
cheers

I wasn't able to get Windows 7 to recognize my AGC. probably because I have some crappy CSR Bluetooth usb receive that I don't even have software for. TBH, I don't think I've ever connected anything to it though, but I don't have a lot of Bluetooth stuff.
seems L2+R2 doesnt work. no game actually recognize this as a legit controller...
any ideas?
try to use xpadder?

I can use the controller with a n64 emulator (project64). The emulator recognize the controller and i also can play games. Just L2 and R2 dont work at all.
try x360ce, its an xinput emulator so it should be detected as an xbox360 controller in most games.
Mine is recognised by my PC via a bluetooth USB adapter, but apparently you need some sort of serial code to connect them together which Iam unable to find. Also, the L1 and L2 triggers don't work on any bluetooth platform, except from the Fire TV.

How did you open the game control calibrator?

So can I pair the fire tv controller with my pc using bluetooth or do I need a receiver like with Xbox 360.
Work around for Fire TV Game controller to PC.
You will need the following Apps.
You will also require your phone and Fire TV to be on the same network as your PC.
1, mouse toggle for fire TV ( or any wireless mouse ) (instruction on google play)
2, Droidjoy free (droidjoy pro if you want L2 R2), (instruction on google play)
3, Octopus ( it's on google play, allows overlay controls for droudjoy/all touch games ) (instruction on google play)
4, Easy fire tools ( Also on google play ).
Firstly install Droidjoy on your phone and follow their instructions and YouTube video on how to connect and make your PC think it's a Xbox controller. Once connected try your game of choice and see if you like ( I found Tomb Raider: Underworld has minimal lag time (ms) plays great but Prince of Persia: The forgotten Sands is slightly more but still highly playable. If your happy move to next step.
Step 1
Install all the other apps on your phone and use the Fire TV Tools app to push/install them to your Fire Tv.
Step 2
Open mouse toggle and start the app.
Step 3
Open the octopus app and choose droidjoy app to open. Then select customize, then select Template Standard.
Step 4
Use mouse toggle in mouse mode to click on the octopus icon and overlay the buttons on the Droidjoy App. The back button can be used here but will become redundant for going back on the fire TV ( you will have to use the home button to exit the app ). Recommend setting the back button after all the following steps are done.
Step 5
Close the app by pressing the home button if you have programmed the back button, now reopen Octopus app and select Droudjoy, goto setting and click auto connect to server, press back ( or use mouse toggle in mouse mode ) now click connect you will have to use mouse toggle to click on your PC Server for the first time. Once connected select your template in the game pad section.
Step 6
Try the game controller on your PC it should work perfectly, you are now using your Fire TV as a relay to your PC, some lagging can be caused by having your Bluetooth set to on on your PC.
If you haven't already assign the back button on octopus and if need push Droidjoy pro to you Fire TV if your happy and need L2 & R2.
Good Luck and fun gaming.
If you havnt brought a Fire TV game controller yet Don't, purchase a Xbox one controller v2 ( your PC will need Bluetooth or a separate bluetooth dongle)
Hallo everyone,
I'm new in this forum and I hope I am right here.
So the Fire TV is new in Germany and I preordered it.
It would be fine if I will be able to use my wireless Xbox 360 Controller with it.
I have read that it is possible to use the original wireless receiver for PC.
But what's about the remake from it (the version from China)? For PC I have to install the drivers manually.
Is it possible to use? Has somebody tried it?
For example like the "White PC USB Gaming Receiver Adapter White For Xbox 360 Wireless Controller" on amazon.com
Sorry I'm not allowed to post links.
Thanks!

Hello
Yes, i have one from ebay (chinese clone) and it works fine. Lights in the controller doesn´t light up as usually but that happens with the official receiver also.
Hey,
I'm using a knockoff chinese receiver. I got mine on amazon for about 13 USD and it works great. It can be a little tricky to configure the controls with Mupen 64 or whatever emulator you are using, and the 'x' home key always takes you back to the games section of the kftv launcher (despite having xbmc set as the launcher, for example), but it works in game just fine.
Let me know if you have any questions- I'd be happy to help.
Can you connect more than one Controller on that adapter? I read, that 4 Controller + 4 headsets are possible with this adapter (on a PC). Whould be nice for multiplayer games...
Gesendet von meinem GT-I9295 mit Tapatalk
I haven't tried headsets, but I've used at least two controllers at once, and I also understand up to 4 per receiver works (theoretically more receivers = more players, but I'm not buying another one to test that theory).
How to hook up third party controllers correctly
I was searching the web up and down in order to get my third party controller (china) to work without a solution. Actually it was easier than I thought:
- connect the dongle
- restart the Fire TV (5 sec hold of Play+Big Button)
- press X on controller
The controller doesn't stop blinking but if you are able to navigate through menus everything worked well.
I bought this receiver from amazon (www (dot) ebay (dot) com/itm/271687378076?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT) and it's not working when I plug it into the Fire TV. I believe the receiver works though because when I plugged it into my mac and I was able to see all the keys responding using 360Controller.
Everybody seems to have minimal issues connecting controllers to their Fire TV. Any ideas?
(Sorry, I don't have enough posts to post links.)

I'm sorry, but it'd be tough to replicate the issue without a device to test with. That receiver looks identical to the one I purchased, but I don't know if it is actually the same on the inside.
I don't know about on OSX, but I found that I could pair the xbox controller with the receiver on my windows PC (using the generic driver). Once I had paired on Windows, I could plug the adapter into anything running android and it would work just fine.
That's the first place I would start- try pairing a controller and making it work on a machine running Windows or OSX or whatever is 'supposed' to work. That way, you can at least tell if the hardware is bad. If you are able to pair and use it on one of those machines, plug it into your Fire TV and use the same controller and see if it recognizes it.
If it works on OSX or Windows but not on the Fire TV, I don't know what to tell you. Maybe pick up a USB OTG adapter and see if you can get it running on another android system. I haven't found a phone / tablet yet that hasn't been plug and play with the adapter.
Lastly, and this is unlikely, it could be that you are running a USB hub that isn't able to provide sufficient power. If that is the case, unplug all other USB devices and test it in the port. If it works there, the hub / draw of other devices is your problem. I'd recommend getting a powered USB hub in that case.

Thanks for the suggestions but I don't think the adapter will work with the Fire TV. I'm not using a hub anywhere in the setup.
I can pair the controller to a Windows machine using the adapter and the generic driver. I'm able to see the computer register all the inputs using the joy.cpl (app?) in Windows. When I plug the adapter into the Fire TV afterwards, I still can't control anything with the controller. Does the ADB debugging switch make a difference? I have the adb over usb set to OFF.
What's an USB OTG and where can I get one? What adapter did you pick up that worked? It might be better if I just picked up the same one instead of troubleshooting this one. Open to any other ideas though.

I'm still not convinced the device is not malfunctioning. Did you actually connect and use a controller to control the PC? It could be that the device is connecting and sending some information, but the part that actually connects to the controller is broken. On Windows, you can just download the driver and install it as per these instructions: https://krisrowland.wordpress.com/2...eless-controller-adapter-in-windows-7-64-bit/
I'm pretty sure this is the controller I bought. Like I said, it looks the same as yours. I'm confident you just got a bad unit.
I had one question:
-Does the rumble function work? (The vibration)

It's been a while since I've actually used it, but if I remember right it does work if you map it properly in the emulator you are using. For example, Mupen 64 has support for rumble packs, and I'm about 80% certain it works.
hi mate did you ever get this working, i have the same issue, bought a cheap receiver from ebay. hooked it up to laptop, installed driver, worked fine. connect to fire tv, nothing!
ARGH!!!!
The cheap china clones just making problems with Android aka FireTV. That's what I heard.
But the original adapter makes me sometimes Problems too. Sometimes the Box Start in security Mode (grey written in the left corner of the screen) or had to replug them After Start to let the Box recognice the adapter again.
I bought two very great Bluetooth Controller from "mi". Really nice. Like Xbox 360 Controller. You can buy it cheap @ allbuy.com.

Hi there, I'm having the same issue here.
HARDWARE: - FireTV 2.0
- xbox 360 wireless chinadapter
- xbox 360 wireless controller
I've turned off the dev settings on my firetv, connected the 360 controller via my chinadapter to my pc to verify that it's paired and working. Plugged my adapter into my firetv. Restarted firetv. Pressed the silver X button, the blue x button, the ))) connect button... Still nothing. I've gone into the "Add a new controller" area (where it tries to establish connectivity) and tried everything I can think of. I was really excited about this and am kinda bummed. Not wanting to buy extra controllers really.
- something noone else has mentioned running into - the firetv seems to crash or reset itself when I push the ))) connect button on the chinadapter receiver. . . weird. . .
---------- Post added at 06:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:18 PM ----------
UPDATE:
I got it to interact randomly. Unfortunately it was unacceptably buggy. Crashing games, not recognizing inputs and, well, everything that might be awful about a controller. So I guess I'm looking into cheap bluetooth controllers. def not spending $50 on Amazons controller to play freaking android games lol let alone games in the amazon app store. Thanks for the thread and any advice on getting it to work properly you may have discovered.
I am having the issue of not being able to connect my 360 controller via the Chinese adapter to the fire tv....I have got it working in windows but it wont connect on the fire tv. I have disabled developer options restarted the fire tv and hit the x button to try to connect but I get nothing.
I apologize up front because I can see that this has been discussed but I can't find a definitive answer after reading through all the different threads.
Is there a way to pair a bluetooth keyboard + mouse/trackpad to the Fire TV with a device that can't be rooted?
I ask because like a lot of others, I just pre-ordered the Fire TV Stick. Now I know it's not out so we don't know what it can/can't do but assuming the code is the same, I'm trying to do some homework before it arrives. And since the Stick doesn't have the USB inputs, I have to rely on Bluetooth or maybe an app for a virtual keyboard/mouse if anyone knows of one.
Thanks in advanced!

the short answer is "NO" rooted or not.
at least the one's that I have do not get recognized.
Anker K1280C keyboard
HP H3T51AA Mouse
Has anybody else had any luck pairing a PS4 controller with the Amazon Fire TV Stick? I saw that with the Amazon Fire TV you hold share and power, and you can then pair them. On the Stick everything seems to go about the same, except then it says 'Unable to pair' when you select Wireless Controller.
Hey i'm having the same problem. I don't have the Fire TV but have read something similar to what you said. If you figure out a method plz let me know.
Same here
Having the same issue here. Can't seem to figure it out;

I tried sideloading Android's settings.apk - and even then it was a no go. Maybe part of their plan of selling it for $20 was counting on some sales of the $40 controller, so they don't want us using other controllers with it anymore.

I also tried with the settings apk. My problem was that the controller would not even show up in the Settings.apk Bluetooth menu. On the other hand, it showed up in the Bluetooth controllers options but did not connect.
Other people have had success connecting the Ouya controller thus I think its not that they don't want ANY 3rd party controllers, its just that the Bluetooth driver and/or hardware they're using is different than the Fire TV. Which is really sad because the ONLY reason I bought the Fire TV stick was because I read PS4 controller works out of the box with FireTV.
Same issue for me and I'm really bummed. Any other things to try besides the settings.apk? I have a feeling this is a cut cost hardware issue.
same issue
I have just spoken with amazon and according to them the PS4 controller is not compatible. I too saw an youtube video where someone was able to pair it, if anyone has a solution to this issue please let me know, I really don't want to wait for the playpad pro that is optimazied for amazon since its back ordered
I finally got it to pair, but the performance is pretty terrible, you can see the process here: http://youtu.be/jF3ExA3qzbc (no root required) to keep this from being a 'shameless plug' I'll post the brief instructions, so you can skip the video if you want.
'adb shell' into your fire stick
Get your mac address with this command: settings get secure bluetooth_address
Download and install sixaxisPairToolSetup-0.3.0
Connect your controller via usb to your pc, run the tool, and change the master address to your fire stick's address
Put your dualshock4 in pairing mode and scan for bluetooth controllers with your fire stick
As soon as "wireless controller" shows up on the list DO NOT SELECT IT.
Turn off your controller by holding the (ps) button
Select "wireless controller" on your fire stick
Turn back on the controler
It should now be connected, and it will be greyed out in the list.
if it did not connect try the pairing process again, but this method worked for me on the first try.
[/LIST](the youtube video is more detailed, and has all the links, but with this post and a quick google search, you should be able to find everything you need)

I don't believe so, the ds4 acts as a generic bluetooth controller,
the ds3/sixaxis dose not.
but feel free to try, I do not have any with me at the time, so I can not check.
have there been any updates to this? the Settings.apk is not working for me, it closes out when I attempt attach a bluetooth controller. I am trying to connect my ps4 controller through bluetooth for a lag free experience. So far after connecting it I get a ton of lag on the controller.
the steps given by BOBdotEXE in this thread worked for me it even works the main amazon screen too its not working for all games but seems ok with the emulators though

unfortunately according to the link there still is lag when inputting commands (1 month ago), I am hoping someone can find a workaround for the lag issues because games are unplayable through bluetooth using a ps4 controller

my lag isnt that bad at all tbh, i can play sonic 1 no problems, i can play nintendo emulator no problems, i think the lag may be due to the distance from the stick to the controller, my distance is about 2 metres from the stick maybe just over, if you live in a BIG house with over 5 metre distance then yes there would obviously be lag
If you need an alternative controller I have a thread for that Here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-tv/help/aftv2-best-compatible-apps-accessories-t3269267
I haven't managed to get the ds4 paired via Bluetooth as yet but whilst trying I connected it to a powered usb hub which is connected to the stick which is rooted and has OTG enabled.
It worked immediately wired.
As soon as I pulled the cable though the stick rebooted. But if your desperate, rooted and have an OTG cable you can connect your ds4 to you fire stick.
FYI My old wired xbox 360 (afterglow) didn't work when that was connected.
Hello all. Sorry to bump this ancient thread but its the first google result when looking for help. So i had problems using my ps4 controller on my firetv myself as it appears amazon has cut support for game controllers on firetv. Lucky enough there is an easy fix.
Simply download and install Easy Fire Tools onto a smartphone.
Easy Fire Tools - Apps on Google Play
Install your favorite apps on FireTv and other android devices
play.google.com
Then download and install Bluetooth Pair
Bluetooth Pair - Apps on Google Play
Bluetooth pairing - automated. Simply turn on Bluetooth and connect!
play.google.com
Then just sideload Bluetooth Pair app to firetv and use it to connect to game controller.
This method works to where you dont need to pair the remote every time you want to use with firetv. Simply turn on and it will connect.
Cheers!
I'm having the same issue. Although I do not own a Fire TV, I have read something that sounds similar to what you have described. Please let me know if you come up with a solution.
I couldn't find any answers to this so I figured I would put out there for future users. I have tried to pair this controller with my Fire TV 2nd Gen with no success. Perhaps I am doing something wrong? Anyone gotten this to work? What did you do? I would get the Amazon gaming controller but they are unavailable for some reason. Thanks in advance.

If you have anything at all in the usb port when you you try to connect a moga pro under controllers in settings, the ftv doesnt see it, try to disconect anything usb and go into the settings and try again i have moga pro and the asus controller paired they both work well. You can re conect the usb devices after you are paired and it will work fine.
Thanks for that. I think the issue was I was charging it and trying to connect it at the same time. I unplugged the charging cable and it found it after a few seconds. Maybe the battery was too weak earlier. Anyway, works great now with Asphalt 8.
