[Q] n64oid + ps3 controller

Hey guys ! I just wanted to know if anyone were able to use their wireless ps3 controller with this emulator ? Im able to use any others emulator such as the Snes perfectly ! But for some reasons on this particular emulator im stuck at the scanning for devices ! Anyone? :0

It seams like it might be the app called Bluez IME that might **** with my ps3 controller selection ...

There is Sixaxis https://market.android.com/details?...udios.sixaxiscontroller&feature=search_result
And their compatibility testing tool .. https://market.android.com/details?...xiscompatibilitychecker&feature=search_result

You're right. Bluez IME doesn't support PS3 controllers (they're working on it I hear) so what you will have to do is bind every button on the PS3 controller to a hardware key. This is going to be annoying, but you'll only have to do it one time.
Open up the Sixaxis App, then press the start button to open the bluetooth connection. Once the connection is listening, press the PS button on your controller. The app should tell you that there's one client connected. Press the menu button on the phone (far left, looks like a paper I guess) then go to preferences. Press the box that says bypass IME, then select input mappings. You can then select which controller you are mapping then for each button, assign it a letter on the key board (like left = a, right =b, etc). After you're done, open up n64oid, go to settings, then input settings. Press key mappings and press they key mappings button for the controller you want. Then just go through and bind all your keys like normal.

Tyvm thats exactly what I did, works like a charm ! playing mario kart 3 players battles on our 60" tv eheh portable consoles ftw !

How do you bind the keys like normal at the end. When I am in n64oid i click on key mapping and d-pad left it says press a key

You first map the keys to the controller, so it simulates keyboard input, then in n64noid when it asks you to press a key you hit the appropriate button on the controller ... (of course you have to have it paired and working at the time)

Ok in sixaxis app i mapped each button with letters a-z
And it said client one connected
So i went to n64oid and to settings and input settings and clicked left for example, so it said hit key, so i hit left dpad on ps3 controller and nothing, its like its not detecting me pressing the button on my ps3 controller, why is this?

You have to go to input settings, and change it to sixaxis controller instead of keyboard, under normal android settings ...

followed your directions still nothing :/
Once paired, unplug the USB cable and press the power button on the controller. If successful, the lights on the controller will stop blinking and a single light will remain on.
My controller pairs, i even downloaded the comaptibility checker and my controller and phone passed the test, but all the lights blink on my controller but when that is finished they all go off instead of one which is supposed to stay on.

Sixaxis and Connecting PS3 Controller
Hello there,
This is my first post ever. (fyi)
Any ways... You need to use the sixaxis pair tool on your PC to ultimately connect the controller to your phone.
The reason:
When a controller (PS3 Spec.) connects to a console, the console exchanges its (Bluetooth in this case) MAC address with the controller to create a solid connection between the host and the periphal device.
The solution:
Sixaxis pair tool will allow you to manually manipulate this MAC address reservation through use of a USB B cable, a PC using the software, and finally a PS3 controller...
Once the software is launched simply type the number from the bottom of the sixaxis application (Android) into the sixaxis pair tool (PC) and click update...
Finally:
Restart your sixaxis application (Android)
Once restarted, click the start button...
Wait until it says listening for controllers...
Turn on PS3 controller.
VOILA!
Hope this helps I had some problems getting it to work as well...

WiiMotes and PS3 controllers working on stock Samsung ICS ROMS, midi devices too?

Not sure if everyone is aware of this yet? Reported at Droidgamers yesterday. I have a Note now and can confirm that WiiMotes work on a completely stock ICS ROM. I can also confirm that PS3 controllers also work via USB OTG now on the Note (previously they only worked via the Sixaxis app). I see another user has confirmed that midi devices also work with the Note via USB OTG. Details here.
Any S2 owners here able to confirm re: PS3 controller and/or midi devices?

Just tried the Logitech F310, no go (presume same reason as the Xbox 360 wired controller - high drain device without it's own power supply.

Just tried a PS3 pad, all genuine cables etc. Nothing on my phone. Just the prompt saying a USB connector being attached. The pad is looking for my PS3 when I turn it on.

Was the PS3 powered-off when it was connected? Mine was, plug it in and the LEDs on it start flashing (there is no notification in the phone to say it recognises the controller), press the PS3 button then and it was all go - it didn't turn on the PS3 when I did this.

The pads leds dont come on when its all wired up. With my PS3 on standby, hitting PS turns it on and connects to that. With the PS3 unplugged, push PS and all 4 leds flash until it gives up.

Interesting, I guess for whatever reason the S2 isn't working with them yet then. May come in a future update since the Note is working with them.

Keep forgetting Wiimotes dont work on the S II even with apps...about time they fixed that. Not that Im upgrading to ICS anyways

Stop relying on those bull**** official features for things like this. Go get USB/BT Joystick Center and plug in whatever you want.
Wiimote support is nice though

I'm not relying on official anything, been using PS3 controllers etc with mine for ages via Root, but it's still nice to see this stuff appearing officially too.

Is there any special configuracion dor a WiiMote, or i just simply turn my bluetooth on and search it??

Yeah I forgot which forum I was in, and that the Wiimote isn't supported on the S II even with third party software up until now. It's just been pissing me off how much attention game controllers have gotten on Android with ICS, when you can do it and 100 times better with any version

You'll need an app like Wiimote Controller from the Play Store.

yes you can connect a wiimote with that app but i know that this does not work with stock versions of ICS

Both Controllers paired as Player 1 on CM11

Hi, guys
When I pair my 2 controllers to my ouya (with cm11 kitkat) both controlers show the light "1", and both really act as player number 1. Is there a way to set one of them as 2? I tried to unpair, turn off bluetooth, reboot but the controllers wont change a thing. I know the chupacabra update got some management and then I can change it easily, I wonder if there is something similar that I could try.
Thanks!

I have the same issue - but using a Gamestick controller and an Ouya controller! Did you have any luck sorting it out?

360 Xbox controller wireless - Some questions

I've just got a Fire Box & a new 360 Xbox controller wireless with microsoft's official dongle (official microsoft NOT generic)
Could someone walk me through what you pressed & for how long to pair it?
The Fire TV Box doesn't see it when I try to pair it (just continually searches). But it does recognise it partially for navigating menus. It recognises inputs from the left joystick & d pad only, & the A & B button. The right joystick is dead.

Looks like it's working as intended for you:
Left stick + D-Pad is for scrolling
A = OK
B = Back
XBox Button = Home
Start = Menu
Right stick has not functionality in the menus.
If that's working you don't have to pair it anywhere.
You can use it to navigate. Using it in any Emulator or Game App should also work Out-Of-The-Box now. Just use the controller button assignment in those apps.
I have a generic receiver but when that's already working fine it should be ok with the original.
Oh btw: The controller keeps blinking for me but it still works. Even for 2 controllers on the one receiver.

Oh thanks for that I feel really dumb now. I only ever gamed on my PC with a keyboard & mouse last time I used a controller was when I was a kid.
What do you do when you run out of buttons & triggers for a game? I'm playing Dead Trigger 2 & I don't have enough buttons & it makes you program them in yourself. There is no default.
I don't even know which buttons/triggers etc I should program in for what function. I know it would vary by person & game but I imagine there is probably a basic commonality to the way people decide which buttons to use for what.
Yeah the blinking is annoying but everyone gets that apparently.

[STOCK OREO][5X] Bluetooth cannot find some devices

So, I have a Daydream Controller I'm trying to pair with my Nexus 5X. On Android Nougat, it was as easy as launching the Daydream app, and hold the home button to pair the controller. However, with Android Oreo, it does not work! I went to Bluetooth settings to check whether the device detects the Daydream Controller, but it doesn't. However, on my laptop, the controller shows up as "Daydream Controller"... Furthermore, I tried with some more devices (bluetooth headset is detected, my laptop is detected). What do you think the issue is? Am I missing out something?
Edit: I want to add that I have Magisk installed (I am rooted).
