Retrolink N64 controller w/ Samsung S2 - General Accessories

Hey I just bought a Retrolink N64 controller w/ a USB adapter for my Samsung S2 but the phone wont recognise the controller once its plugged in.
The controller works on my pc while running Project64 and the adapter works on its own while plugged into the phone, i just cant seem to get them to work together. Any help much appreciated.
Running Android version 4.0.3

xbox 360 controller(USB)

hey. i saw and have read that it is possible to connect the xbox360 controller (USB) to an ICS device. but it doesnt work for me. i have the Neo and ICS and of course the OTG cable. the controller flashes one time and then nothing. even tried joystick center but it cant find anything
my no-name garbage controller works though.
...?
I've had this working on an Iconia A500 with OnLive. Just plugged in and it worked right away.
Maybe it's a power issue? Are phone USB ports designed to deliver adequate amps? Obviously they can receive but perhaps cannot drive peripherals?
I'd be interested to know if this is possible too. I have a Galaxy S3 on JB but I could go back to ICS if it only works on that.
i wanna know that too
is it possible???
i have HTC Sensation

Use GN2 as portable gaming system? (setup question)

Here is what I know:
I can use a Samsung USB-to-HDMI adapter to display the screen on a TV while charging the phone. You can hook up a PS3 controller to the GN2 with a USB-OTG cable. I also know that you can connect certain devices to the GN2 via USB-OTG cable and a USB hub to charge the GN2 while using the peripheral.
What I would like to do:
I would like to be able to run an emulated two-player game on my GN2 while displaying on an HDMI connected TV, and having two controllers work at the same time for simultaneous two player action (ex. Street Fighter 2 Turbo for SNES). I already have a couple PS3 controllers as well as two generic USB PC gaming controllers that I would like to use.
Basically, is the USB port on the GN2 capable of being used to simultaneously charge the phone, and run the HDMI adapter and two USB controllers? If not, what about just running the HDMI adapter and charging the phone, then run two controllers via Bluetooth? Also, I see there is a smart dock (EDD-S20JWE) that looks to have all of the functionality I'm interested in, can anyone confirm this?
Thanks all.
I have never thought of that! I am also interested though!

I actually just tried this very setup the other day: HDMI out + PS3 controller. In theory it should be awesome... But I found that the HDMI out is super laggy (both in terms of framerate, and a pretty significant delay between what shows on the phone screen vs. the TV screen). I tried it on both a TV, and a PC monitor, and it was the same. I posted about it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2098948
It made every game I tried unplayable. I didn't even try a fighting game, but I'd imagine it would be even worse.
It makes the setup pretty unusable in my opinion, which has me pretty bummed out because I was really excited about it.
I'll just stick to GameKlip + PS3 controller for now.

screen mirroring app to TV via LAN

hi folks
Is it possible to screen mirror image from my phone (SII 4.0.4 ) to a Samsung 32C5000 TV via LAN ? I'm looking for fomething like screenshare or smartview , btw these do not working with my tv. Allshare doesn;t have any of these options just playing files. It would be really cool to play virtua tennis / nes games with usb controller on the tv.
I'm also interested in this. But I have a Samsung Smart TV Series 8. I have tried searching all over, but I never found a way...

You could just get an mhl cable???
The idea is to use the gamepad in the microUSB port with an OTG adapter so MHL isn't an option. Also wireless offers some form of freedom meaning I'm not limited to using cables.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller bluetooth ps3 controller and mhl?
Currently I have a Logitech Dual Action which is USB cabled but I am considering about buying that ps3 controller.
Can you tell me what's the difference between these two adapters?
1. www.ebay.com/itm/MHL-Micro-USB-Male...Phone_PDA_Cables_Adapters&hash=item2a1e2ed2ac
2. http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Black-M..._MobilePhoneDataCables_JN&hash=item41729ff31c
Number 1 looks right
Number 2 is an adapter to turn the s3's micro USB port into an s2's, as Samsung changed the way mhl worked on s3 so you couldn't use s2 mhl cable
Just so you're aware mhl requires stock ROM and the cable must be connected to a power source as well to work.
Hmm ,.I think I'll buy the first but what if I decide to change my phone? Will it work with another Android S3 or maybe some HTC dunno ?
No problem regarding firmware as I am not a fan of custom roms.
The cable won't work on s3 as the cable is 5 pins and s3 is something like 12 but there's adapters available like number 2
Screen mirroring is possible
screen mirroing is capable in phones Galaxy s3 and above and it can be easily ported in galaxy s2 if neatROM develpoers thinks its a worthy feature like they did in feature (Multi - Window) which was also supported in phones Galaxy s3 and above...

can't connect xbox360 controller to note 10.1 2014

I want to use my xbox360 controller on my note 10.1 2014 edition via a usb on the go adapter. However when. I plug it in the gem just flashes and I can't use the device. It also doesn't work on my phone (Samsung mega 6.3), but a usb mouse works just fine. Can anyone help me figure out what is the issue? I'm running stock on my tablet and slimkat on my phone. Could it be am adapter issue?
Some devices can't use the 360 controller. Nexus devices usually can. Better off getting a moga on the cheap or you can use a ps3/ps4 controller if you have one.

Connecting an Xbox controller

Hey guys, I just got the Razer phone and I'm trying to connect a wireless Xbox 360 controller to the device. I'm using an otg cable to the wireless dongle but it doesn't pick it up, I've done this with several of my old devices all of witch were HTCs. Is there any software I need to install? It worked out of the box with all my previous phones, no root or additional software.
Maybe the issue is in the otg?? I connect a ps4 controller via Bluetooth.
Does the phone support USB OTG ?
I have seen that the nextbit robin phone does not and razer acquired them to make this phone.
It does support otg and the cable is not the issue, it's the same cable I used to connect it on my previous device.
Indeed, Razer Phone has OTG support and it works with pendrives, keyboards, mouses but doesn't work with my wired Xbox 360 Controller...
Any ideas?

As far as I know, the thing doesn't HAVE proper controller support.
Except maybe the Razer Raiju Mobile that just came out.
Razer Tech Support said there's no OTG or controller support.
I plug my DS4 in directly to the phone, nothing. I plug an S8 to the controller with the same wire, recognizes it fully.
This phone is the most finicky device I've ever dealt with.
