Hey dudes,
I have a wired 360 controller and tried plugging it into my note 8.All I get is a blinking green circle on the controller and nothing on the note. Anyone know how to get it working? I'm using an OTG micro to usb cable.

I thought that although the PS3 controler is plug and play with andoid, the 360 controller is not, or at least not very easily set up.
I use my PS3 controller both as a plug and play controller and as a bluetooth controller (when I can be bothered to set it up, loading the address into it can be a bit of a pain since I use it with my PS3 as well).
First of all, this is NOT my How To. It belongs to James Andrew Coote and the original Post about this can be found here: How to Pair a PS3 Controller
Maybe the Mods will find this Post useful for the users and will stick it, or it will be deleted :/
I thought that this is a very common question and i didn't see a "sticky-post" about this.
Here we go:
1. Turn your OUYA on and make sure you have at least one OUYA controller paired
2. Plug your PS3 Controller into your OUYA using a mini-USB to standard USB cable
3. Hold down the home button on your PS3 controller. This should take you back to the OUYA home screen. Make sure the PS3 controller is working by using it to navigate the menus. You will also note that the OUYA controller has been disconnected and won't pair. This is because plugging in the PS3 controller on USB turns off bluetooth.
4. To solve this, first completely power down your OUYA. You can do this by either holding down the power button on the top of the console for 5 seconds (recommended) or unplugging the power cable.
5. Unplug the PS3 controller from the mini-USB wire, and unplug the same wire from the OUYA.
6. Turn the OUYA back on. When it finishes booting up, you should see the usual pairing screen appear
7. Hold down the home button on the PS3 controller as you would with a normal OUYA controller to pair it. Other OUYA controllers should now also pair

And please do not forget:
It should be noted that not all OUYA games support the PS3 controller. However, it should allow you at a minimum to navigate the OUYA menu

Xbox controllers are not Bluetooth. They won't work without the USB wireless device.
I've tested this and it requires the cable at first to grab its MAC address and setup the wireless pairing. The controller only connects with to a device with a specific MAC address. Even on Android, you have to connect it up to your PC first before it will pair.
This is pretty easy though. Connect with USB, reboot, and pair.

Anyone else have there ps3 controller red lights keep flashing and not sync with the ouya at all?

Just tried it and it worked thanks
My red lights always flash, even after paired and when using. That is normal. Make sure you hook it up to USB first, make sure you can control it using Wired, then pull the power from the Ouya and remove the USB. When it boots back up, at the Pairing screen, you can pair the PS3 wirelessly.
Then it works just like the Ouya controller. You can jump in any time.
Anyway to turn off the PS3 controller once it's connected without manually turning off the OUYA? That seems to be the only way other than going into BT settings and disconnecting it.
So I've connected USB sticks and mice to my N5 via OTG able and both worked fine but when I try with a ps3 or Xbox controller it just won't work.
I can't find any guides on how to do this, with similar devises like the N7 they just plugging it in press the PS button and it works..
I've tried the USB/BT JoystickCentre app and it recognised that the controller was plugged in I went to language/input and changed it to gamepad and it still wouldn't work please help.
Also rooting my device is not an option and if I'm posting in the wrong spot sorry I'm new, thank you
Hi,
I have a OTG/MHL adapter which has 2 USB ports and 1 HDMI port along with other SD/MMC etc. The phone is displaying fine on TV.
However I have a broken screen/digitizer. This is the reason for creating the thread.
When I connect my wired mouse into any of the USB ports, it displays Mouse connected (connected to HDMI through to TV) but there is no pointer and no movement. RED LED is lit under Mouse to show power is drawn.
I have a LG G3 phone but unfortunately trying to connect to it doesn't work however I have another USB OTG Cable but it's only 1 connection. Micro USB to USB. IF I connect that to my LG phone along with my wired mouse then I see the pointer and I can control my phone. No issues.
My Broken phone android version is 4.4.x
The mouse is a new mouse but one of the cheap one from eBay. Bottom of the Mouse the Rating is 5V --- 100Ma
The OTG Adapter is another cheap one but it's always worked for me without any issues. However MAYBE, just maybe the reason it doesn't work is because the power input or DC is also 5V. Does that mean the mouse is taking all the power?
What I'm trying to achieve -
Enable WIFI so then I can remote control the device etc. I use the Broken phone for KODI.
Can I use any ADB commands to make it work? I don't have it rooted I don't think but I can start the phone in Recovery mode.
Any advice will help,
Thanks
Hi, my name is Julian and this was my first try at OTG. So I have an OP3, an old Xbox One Controller(the one without Bluetooth), an USB to Micro USB and a Female USB to USB C Cable. I activated OTG in the Settings, connected my controller to the Cable and the Cable to the adapter and then to my phone, but nothing except the controller vibrating for a short time(no blinking) happened. I tried it in Games, Key mapping apps like Octopus, Tincore Keymapper and so on, but nothing happened, even if the Apps recognized the controller being connected. (How) can I fix this Issue? The Problem is clearly the communication between controller and Phone, because the Setup works just perfectly with an USB Stick or a computer mouse.
