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?
(Running std Ouya firmware but rooted w/xposed)

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
I tried to pair Ouya Controller with the phone , it hasn't worked.
Is there any way to get the Ouya Controller working on the phone to play games?
I mean , it is a bluetooth controller and the Ouya is based on Android ; it should not be so different :silly:
Thanks for help!

I paired it to my Samsung Discover - Android 4.0.4 today as a test. I bought the phone yesterday as a replacement for a broken phone. Upon pairing everything seems to work fine. However, the buttons are mapped differently than the Ouya. The mouse pad works perfectly although the click isn't very sensitive.
U: Back
A: Ok
L2: Menu
DPAD: Random? long press menu function (Brings up current running apps list in an unpredictable manor)
LS: Up, Down, Left, Right
The mapping suggest that when paired with normal android the keys are not putting out the same values as when the controller is paired with an Ouya.

How did you paired the controller with your device? Is your device running a stock rom?

I went to bluetooth settings turned bluetooth on. While it was scanning I held down the Ouya button on the controller until the middle two lights were blinking and it paired. The phone is 100% stock, not rooted, no special controller drivers.
I believe I tried the same thing with my Samsung Stratosphere - Android 2.3.5 and it wouldn't work. Could be a combination of bluetooth protocols and android versions preventing it from pairing.

This worked great for me. Thanks for the info on the holding down. I wasn't doing it long enough.
Hi, I've got a V500 which I installed infecteds cm11 build, I've since bought an OTG cable and tried to plug in my 360 controller, but I'm having some issues, I downloaded a gamepad testing app and it seems like the button presses are registering, but it's not registering the releases. Is anyone else having this issue or could it just be my cable/controller/tablet?
I just tried with a brand new wireless 360 controller with the adapter and with that controller only the right bumper sticks. This seems like a really strange issue. Is there anyway I can find out what's causing it?
Hi chris
Nice to see I'm not alone with this issue as well.
As far as I've tested, whenever we press the A,B,X,Y,R1,L1 buttons they don't register the releases.
I've tried many different things, such as changing the keyboard layout for the controllers, and even making my own. Not successful though.
Well, I've managed to "bypass" this problem by configuring the gamepad keys on the games (the ones that we can configure, of course) to don't use these buttons I listed.
I changed the A,B,X,Y to the right analog stick, and the R1,L1 buttons to the R2,L2 Triggers (which are analogic).
Then the controller may work flawlessly.
Nice to know I'm not the only one to experience this issue. Weirdly I can use my 360 controller to navigate around the android interface, but struggle to get it to do anything when it comes to using it in game.
has anyone managed to get this to work?
I've tried the same cable with the same pad on my nexus 5 and it works perfectly, so there is something wrong with the USB driver.
All I want to do is play ps1 games on my tablet.
I am trying to use a bluetooth Media Remote. When I search for bluetooth devices the device will appear and when I select it asks if I want to connect. However when I click yes it does not actually connect. I have tried to run XMTC and changed the name from ODB to the name of the device. This changes the icon of the device on the unit however it still does not connect. This appears to be OS\driver issue not a hardware issue since the device is being found.
I have tried two different bluetooth remotes with the same results(from amazon)
Satechi® Bluetooth Button Series (Media Button)
iSimple Portable Wireless Remote Control
I can however connect these to my phone and change the volume on the phone while I am streaming music to the head unit. And this is nice, but I would really like to be able to control the head units volume instead.
Does someone have a custom ROM that could fix my issue?
Edit - was able to resolve my issue. Used xposed framework and bt module to remove the name limitation.

I am glad you were able to resolve your issue. Hoping someone smarter than me can fix mine
Anyone have any ideas how to get other bluetooth devices to work with this system? I expect someone that can build a custom ROM could fix this.

Did anyone ever find out which xposed module this is?
Hey there, I've got the Satechi® Bluetooth Button Series (Media Button) thing too, and surprise surprise, it won't talk to my Pumpkin HU (rk3066, android 4.4.1, mcu KLD2).
I've rooted the stock using the #hct#root# trick and installed SuperSU. I would love to get the button working!
I've got my head unit installed in my right-hand drive car (am in UK) - and where it's mounted, it is just out of reach unless I lean forward - so I can't really use it without looking, apart from using the tiny buttons down the side.
Happy to try the xposed framework but like OP I don't know which modules to use to get a USB BT dongle working. Any help greatly appreciated!
I definitely may be wrong but I assumed he was referring to the Xposedmtc module (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54334741) in the OBD settings where you specify the string. Though I assumed this only worked for OBD devices. I tried using it to pair an iRadar device with mine but was unsuccessful.
Oh, poop. Thanks all the same. Will keep an eye on this thread and report back if I ever get anywhere! Could it be that these HU's are only Bluetooth 2.0 compatible? Every device I've seen seems to be 3.0...
Hmmm. I'm thinking of getting a cheap wired USB numberpad (they're like £3) and using it with a keyboard mapper like this one:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.apedroid.hwkeyboardhelper
and this list:

Oh and this is as much a note to self as anything!

Bumping as I have interest too.
You guys are making this way too difficult. Check this out. It works great on my joying.

Anyone has found which xposed bt module the op was talking about ? I have already bought the bluetooth remote but I can't connect to it. (Works on my phone)
Also bought a Satechi® Bluetooth Button Series (Media Button) for use with my Joying unit but alas no success, so bumping this thread to see if there is any progression.
@dcmtnbkr are you able to show a quick video of your unit in action?
For the people that have gotten their bluetooth "remotes" to work, can you simultaneously also pair your phone and perform calls?

I bought much the same device but it won't directly connect to my HU. The HU will connect to my phone and my phone connect to media controller so I know all the devices work. Do I need a Droid program to allow access directly to the HU which is playing music from a USB flash drive.
Main problem is HU has panel controls for volume but cannot skip a song with going into player program. I use the display for my engine management gauges and don't want to keep getting out of program just to skip a song I don't like.

I'm familiar with the one you're talking about, it's not the same thing.
I found another one that would work and is less intrusive.

Yes and no. Ds4 works perfectly outside of shark space (the gaming mode) with zero issues.
With sharkspace enabled the ds4 looses connection and fails to reconnect untill sharkspace has been disabled/quit.
We can load sixaxis controller app from inside sharkspace, so in the future with root access (we currently don't have root) it should be usable in its gaming mode. But at present your going to have to play without one of the black sharks main selling points if you want to use your dual shock for.
This is also the case for all my 3rd party controllers, one user has claimed success with an ipega controller, but I've not got one to test, note planning on getting one.
The official controllers for the blackshark 2 are probably going to be the best option for full compatability unfortunately
Thanks bro!! I appreciate the time and dedication in the response, greetings. Maxx.-
Which controller have you guys tried? I tried my wireless controller using otg but seems like it doesn't recognize otg connection ?

I've tried a DS3, ds4, c.t.r.l and a nvidia shield bt controller, none worked inside sharkspace all worked outside.
I also manually changed the master addresses of the controllers aswell via a pc to match the blackshark2 with no success, tried various gamepad mappers also with no success.
As above there's a post on here somewhere someone recogned the i.p.e.g.a controllers work but personally I am not willing to buy one to test, maybe if someone with a legitimate blackshark2 controller would mind sharing the master bt address the controllers use we could use a pc to change our controllers (ds4 etc) to match, and maybe the blackshark would recognise our Bluetooth controllers as the official ones in sharkspace and stay connected.
That's my only other suggestion/idea untill we have Root access, and even then if they connect and they still probably won't, I dunno if there would be input issues caused as a result of the hardware not matching the software
As far as your otg controller is concerned does it connect and function as intended outside of sharkspace?
It doesn't work at all using otg. It says charging device ?
Just tried again, so my controller has two config dinput mode and xinput mode. Turns out one of them works and the other is not recognised. I think the xinput mode is what works and when I switch to it the controller works outside and inside shark space as well. Although, the button are a bit wrong but i remap them in game and i can play fortnite without any issues. I will still buy the black shark gamepad 2.0 though.
Your absolutely correct buddy thank you.
Dinput controllers such as the ds4 are not working inside sharkspace.
The nintendo switch joycons use xinput and work with the blackshark inside sharkspace. I did notice some input lag on the joycons but to be honest I wasnt playing the best game to test a controller. The switch pro controller also uses xinput so will assume that works aswell, but again not got one to test.
I have the Black Shark Gamepad 2.0, which is unfortunately a bit of a disappointment. It has some very strange aspects to it: Y button cannot be mapped in Shark Space mode, it acts as some toggle between touch screen emulation and mouse cursor mode, which I don't understand why someone would use that. It's useless to me as someone who wants it solely for emulators.
When used outside of Shark Space mode, the DPad and the lettered face buttons both register as the same thing A/B/X/Y buttons. Also, the right touchpad does not act like a stick, instead it acts like a mouse.
On top if this, there are no start, select or L3/R3 buttons. This amounts to playing in Shark Space mode leaving you 5 buttons short of a full controller and outside Shark Space to playing 8 buttons short.
I could get the master BT address for you but I am not exactly sure how to do it. Do I just need to pair it to a PC and do... what?
Has anyone tried using the Xbox 360 controllers
