I have purchased the Bluetooth G910 game controller for use with other 'desktop' Android boxes for approx USD25.00.

I notice that this 'gamepad' can be paired with the XPERIA C1905 and used for basic navigation as a keyboard (A+Home)
This indicates that it could also be used(limited testing thus far) as a game controller like I do on my Minix NEO X7 Android 'desktop' with Modern Combat 4 and etc.
I'm not a gamer or anything (I need a 10 year old kid to test it), but the Bluetooth G910 'gamepad' works well with Modern Combat 4 with dedicated throw grenade, swap weapon and etc buttons.
The 'gamepad' layout shown in Modern Combat 4 mirrors the controls on the Game controller.
[Update]
Just downloaded 'Shine Runner' as I purchased it years ago and used G910 gamepad.
The G910 Gamepad is seen as default input and negates the games default tilt left/right and uses the gamepad joy stick for left right navigation instead.
So, I can confirm at some level, the Bluetooth Gamepad works on an XPERIA C1905.
The G910 can work in Gamepad mode(X+Home) and keyboard mode (A+Home) on the XPERIA C1905
The clip to hold the phone in the G910 covers the power and volume buttons, but given I had a case on the C1905 this was not a problem.
The 'straight' USB cable for power had to be disconnected, as again, it was not designed to have this in place when the G910 is being used.
However if you have a Sony EC600L USB cable which is a left angle connector, you'll be fine(tight fit) as this can remain in place while the Gamepad and phone are in place.

A seller of the Bluetooth G910 gamepad lists the following Android games as supported:
Asphalt 8 Blast Points, Riptide GP2, Digger HD, Pocket Dogfights, Fractal Combat, Stereo Ride, No Gravity, Grand Theft Auto 3, Max Payne Mobile, Shadowgun, Battle Bears Gold, Forsaken Planet, Block Story, Raven Word: Shadowlands, Shiny the Firefly, Sonic the Hedgehog, GRIDD 2, Alpha Wave, Dungeon Hunter 4 AVP: Evolution, Shadowgun: Dead Zone, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Trial Xtreme 2, Riptide GP, Drift Mania Championship 2 LE, The Dark Knight Rises, Sonic 4 Episode 2, Six Guns, NOVA Near Orbit 3, Medieval, Dead Trigger, Modern Combat 4, Asphalt 7 and many others.
GTA Vice City is noted in the above list as supported, however if you're going to buy the controller to use with only one game, I suggest doing some more research.
I think the main stumbling block to using the Bluetooth G910 game controller has been overcome when I confirmed the Bluetooth G910 gamepad can pair and connect on the XPERIA M.
How, well the Android game is integrated with the Bluetooth G910 controller is another question.
I'm not a gamer and bought the gamepad specifically for a Minix NEO X7 TV box to complement my existing Logitech mouse/keyboard.
The G910 Bluetooth controller works well with the Epic Citadel App on the XPERIA M, just for roaming the castle and grounds.
It's a good app to practice using the controller for movement and turning.

I am interested in getting a gamepad for my PDA. I am not impressed with the joypad on the magician, at least for games. Also, I don't want to log that kind of wear. The only thing I have found is that folding bluetooth monstrocity that is being sold under all kinds of different names (freedom, chainpus, etc.).
I am not that picky, but that unit looks like the worst piece of product design I have ever seen. Bulky, and ackward. Is there anything else? I don't really care about BT. A cable it fine. I just want a straight forward gamepad for MAME arcade stuff. BT is nice, I guess, but playability is more important.
Does anyone have recommendations? Am I being too hard one the folding BT gamepad? Any reason why one of the numerous X-box BT pads wont work? This is the only thing keeping my Magician from fully satisfying my desires...
There is a cabled game pad for the ipaq series, maybe that could be rewired for the xda, I imagine the drivers will work ok.
http://www.geekzone.co.nz/content.asp?contentid=2270
http://www.beinteractive.co.kr/eng/products-p3.asp?prnum=3&prrnum=1
Does that chainpus pad work with emulators like gegg and pocket snes and not just games specificaly for the ppc?
I wouldn't mind finding out some more of this also. What I do know is this... You wont find a wired gamepad that will work on the Magician. No USB or Serial host. Xbox or PC bluetooth gamepads won't work unless you can find drivers for them.
Now here's the big question I have. What bluetooth service does the pad use? Serial? I know the Magician supports the serial profile, but are the gamepads on some profile the phone doesn't have?
I want it for the PSX emulator floating around! Nothing better than playing Tekken 3 at 17fps and bashing the touch screen to hit "virtual buttons"! NOT!
Here is an email I sent to PocketGames [[email protected]] and their response...
Subject: RE:Zeta Joypad
Hello,
I am interested in the Zeta Joy-Pad. Is there a version for the XDA 2 Mini... (Also known as the Imate Jam)
From: '[email protected]'
Subject: RE:Zeta Joypad
Sorry, there's no XDA2 mini version.
The thing is, they have stopped production of all zeta joypad.
Thank you,

Wich psx emulator is that? You got it running on your jam? I had fspce and it didn't run. cheers
I have the same one. Chances are there may have been an error in your game rip. Did you manage to at least get it to the main screen so you could try to open a game?
Oh, and you need a playstation bios. Grab one of these from a P2P network. The file names are listed on the emulator website.
I also found that if you start a game in landscape mode, it crashes. Start the game and get past the title screen in portrait, then switch.

I actually bought this gamepad when it first came out (for $100 ), and I must say, I'm thoroughly impressed. There's a slight lag the further you are from the device, but the Jam fits perfectly in between (and I even have a silicone case on my Jam). The gamepad simply adds more buttons to your Jam, so basically it works with every program, not just games (i.e. you can map a button for Windows Media Player). Therefore, it'll work great on roms (I used to play Street Fighter 2 all the time at work before I got GPRS). One warning, the motherf*cker sucks up batteries relentlessly, so you might want to get rechargeable batteries, or some batteries that simply will last long.
Hopefully this answers any questions. Feel free to ask some more.
I had a look at those gamepads. Damn they're expensive! Cheapest one I saw was US$119! Bugger that for an idea, they can keep it!

They're actually going for $50 last time I checked. I paid close to $100 for it..
Yeah, my bad. It was actually on an Australian site. Works out to be around US$70. I've found cheaper still at some US sites so it would be cheaper for me to import it.
i've got a freedom game pad. Cost 77 euro.
It work fine and i use it for most ppc games and emulation..fpsce, morphgear ecc.
Great deal
G'day,
for those who bought the gamepad, izzit any good when comes to landscape games?
Anyone tried this beauty?

If you are interested in alternatives to the MSI or Chainpus BGP100 bluetooth gamepad, google search "modded by bacteria" go to the "work in progress" section of his forums, and search for the thread "Re-housed Bluetooth controller". The creator of the site, Bacteria, will be transplanting the innards of the BGP100 into an SNES controller. Previously, he has transplanted it into a PS1 controller. It seams feasible to DIY into almost any controller housing.
you'd better check on http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_kw=Game&_kw=pad&_kw=magician prices range from under $ 100 and free shipping

no one interested in this !!
im not interested
After I get my Arc S I'm thinking of buying one.
did you tried it?
IMHO the make or break feature will be whether or not games can 'see' this controller as an Xperia Play pad. I know some games developers are now supporting some USB gamepads, but compared with the optimized Play titles these will always be relatively few and far between.
Fructel have taken the approach of contacting games developers and asking them to support their pad. In my view, this is a mistake (unless of course the Gametel REALLY takes off, and there are as many out there as Xperia Play owners). What they should have done is taken the Play's controller interface as a de-facto standard, and simply made theirs compatible with it. I'm still hoping this might become possible with 3rd party tools.

But then you have the problem of not being able to install "Play only" games.
I think it's a lot better to use a PS3 sixaxis controller. (Cheaper and better control!)
Search for sixaxis in market and download the app. Root is required though!

First of all I am not sure if this will go in Accessories thread or Question so forgive me.
Now that we have Nexus 5 in our hand, has anyone tried different wireless gaming controllers with it? I am planning to get one for decent price as gaming could be more fun for obvious reasons.
if I am not wrong nexus 5 (as some other phones) should work fine with xbox and PS controller, someone please verify if they works on not.
Besides that there are Bluetooth Controller from ipega, gametel and Moga.
If any of community members have one of these lying around, please test it with nexus 5 and also provide small review.
I can't suggest the original MOGA controller. i got one last year when they were free. and, while being free, it was awesome, i wouldn't pay what they were asking. the controls were sticking and there just wasn't a good enough "feel" to the sticks and triggers.
i wouldn't hesitate to go with the moga Pro though as i have heard good things.
Red samurai works just fine.

I use a PS3 controller with the SIXAXIS app. It works quite well, especially for emulators.
Thanks
Thanks all for inputs.
Going to try the iMpulse controller and then when I get the Drone one from Kickstarter around Xmas, I'll report back to see if it works. LOL. I have been using my iMpulse on my N7 for a while now.
Voted for Moga Pro. I love it. Updates to the moga app have made it function a lot better as well. Originally had the OG Moga and it was NOT great. I used a PS3 controller before as well, but you don't get the benefit of attaching the phone to the controller. Also I don't know if the PS3 controller plays nice with apps in the Play Store. Emulators sure, but other games in the playstore have been updated to work with the controller.
THe Pro is GREAT

A fellow future drone owner! High five! :highfive:
OP, I tried my wired Xbox360 controller with the N5 the other day and couldn't get it to work without a 3rd party app. I installed the demo version of "USB/BT Joystick Center" and got it working. It's annoying though because you have to run the app and switch input methods every time you play a game. Also 7 feet of controller cord coming out of your phone is kind of ridiculous...

Yep, hopefully the Drone will be delivered on time. I'm not holding my breath though lol.
:highfive: back atcha
I like my Moga pocket for emulators using the universal driver, my Moga pro for moga enhanced games like gta and i leave my gametel in my work locker. mostly for emulators though.
Has anyone used a steel series free with the N5 yet that could comment on it's compatibility?
Ps3 controller. Buy the universal gameklip, and buy a cheap case... That is easy to get the office out of. And you have it all....

I'm not a huge mobile gamer (I prefer consoles) but I found a good deal on the MOGA Pro, and I'm in love with it.
I have played Dungeon Hunter 4, Modern Combat 4, Dead Trigger 2 all with tremendous success. I won my first MC4 match with a KDR of 3.5. The responsiveness is great, and you don't need to be rooted. The MOGA Pivot app does take up quite a bit of RAM though (more than I believe is needed... 40-60 MB)
It feels like an Xbox 360 controller, and if the game is programmed right, all the buttons will be mapped comfortably, and sometimes allow remapping within the game.
Share deal please

For how much you got MOGA Pro. decided to buy it after all positive feedback for it. please do share link if you got it online.
Anyone know of a good deal for the uk. Or any good deals
Don't want to spend a lot on a controller
some cheap branded dual axis controller works too.
Meanwhile I dig up some old stuff and found out USB controller which is copy of PS3 dual shock and works fine with OTG cable without installing any third party app.I bough it for like $6. I tried it with shadowgun and Dead Trigger 2 which worked fine. so I will use it until I find some great deal on Moga pro or new affordable controller is launched in market.
Anyone tried ipega 9017 with this phone? Thanks in advantage

Hi everyone,
Sorry to dig out this tread, but I'm now starting playing with Google cardboard, and I'd like to know if anyone succeed to pair the Xbox 360 wireless controller with a Nexus 5.
Anyone ?
Thanks
Ipega PG-9025
I have Ipega PG-9025 and it's really good, for only 20-25$ you get dual "true" analogs, media keys, rechargable ~7 hour battery, L2 and R2 keys, 8direction cross and phone holder. Great value, has a soft touch plastic shell, which matches Nexus 5's shell. It's easily detected by emulators and tincore keymapper, can be used with iPhone and PC. But DON'T buy PG-9017!

Best PS1 Emulators
Sometimes you’ve just got to revisit the classics. There’s nothing quite like exploring the nostalgic memories of your youth like watching old TV shows, playing old games, eating candies and being really really sad. That’s probably the part that sticks out the most to me. I was so sad. One thing that always brightened up my day was when I fired up my secret PS1 that I stole from my neighbor. The images from the classic games are burned into my mind like my Dad’s cigarettes are burned into my neck.
While my PS1 Has long been dead, I can still enjoy my favorite PS1 games on my Android device using an emulator. When searching on the Google Play store, you’ll find hundreds of different options when it comes to emulators. You can skip searching around because I’ve put together the best PS1 emulators in the entire world.
ePSXe
You may already be familiar with ePSXe because it has existed as a PC application for quite some time. This app has a crap ton of features like split screen mode, virtual touchscreen pad support, hardware buttons mapping and analog sticks. If you want to use your own controller, ePSXe is compatible with most Android Bluetooth an USB controllers.

}
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.epsxe.ePSXe
FPse
FPse has the smoothest performance when emulating your games. The best feature about this app is that you can play multiplayer with four of your favorite chaps using their phones as controllers while a separate devices acts as your screen.
Aside from this, the app comes with more features than you’ll ever need. Some really cool ones are Google Cardboard support, cheat code search engine, force feedback and compatibility with basically every controller under the sun.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.emulator.fpse
ClassicBoy
ClassicBoy is actually an emulator for 8 different systems. If you’re planning on playing other games in addition to you PS1 stuff, then you’ll probably end up getting this one. Unlike the previous two options, ClassicBoy is free with some in-app purchases.
This emulator will work with your PS1, N64, GBA, GB, GBC, NES, Sega Genesis and SNK NeoGeo games. It is one of the most popular emulators with over 1,000,000 downloads.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.portableandroid.classicboyLite
Did I miss anything? Comment which emulator your use for your PS1 games.
Requirements
Maybe you should detail the requirements. I doubt I can play PS1 with my old S8500
