I managed to get this working and I'm really surprised the ds4 works natively via OTG cable (couldnt get wireless working).
1. connect ds4 via otgcable
2. use this if the controller doesn't instantly work

3. start favorite game or emulator
4. press cast screen under the quick settings
can confirm it works with leos fortune.. enjoy
btw im stock rooted 4.4.4 but i don't think you need root for this...
Isn't the lag huge using this method? Games like sonic or Mario would be near unplayable

Curious about this as well. I would think any Chromcast/Miracast type technology would have too much lag based on controller input to screen lag..
mario kart is playable... this isn't my video but i also tested with leos fortune and its playable too

In one of the latest PS4 firmware updates, it added a pair function to the DS4 controller so you can use the controller with a PS3 too, and I just tried it with my Nexus 7 2013 and it paired instantly through bluetooth WITHOUT having to use any 3rd party app
- When the DS4 is off, press and hold the Share button and the PS Button and it enters pairing mode
- Search for bluetooth devices with your phone/tablet and it came up straight away as Wireless Controller
:highfive:
I've tried to play "Need for Speed: Most Wanted" via Chromecast and a controller...: About 1-1,5 second lag, Quality drops extremely and ther's no Sound....

I love you for this! I got it working on my Nexus 7 2013 using the Android L preview...
No luck on my Samsung Note 3. It just says pairing.. and doesn't do much.
Either way, thank you very much for this info!

It really depends on your network tremendously. My friends miracast has a ton of lag while on my chromecast there is less than a half second lag, sonic was very playable, except for the random moments of lag.

I've got 150Mb/s, shoud be enough for that. Other (more powerful) things work seamlessly over the same network
I'm having an issue with wirelessly pairing my dualshock 4 to my nexus 7 2013. When I enable pairing mode on the controller, the light will blink on it and it'll show up on the tablet. I tap 'pair' on the tablet and it pairs successfully, but the light on the controller continues to blink, then it eventually stops blinking. Again, it states that it's paired on the tablet, but I can't actually use the controller.
Any ideas?
Hi, I've got the d855 g3, I play games on it a lot, a while back I tried using a keyboard and mouse to play gta San andreas, it sort of worked, except for the mouse which just made me keep spinning. I got a wired xbox 360 controller recently and plugged that into my phone. It worked, I tried San andreas again but I had no control of the direction I'd be looking, the camera was circling my character. So then I tried modern combat 5, it didn't work either, it just looked up, whilst all my other buttons and controls worked. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
You can use Sixaxis app with a PS3 controller (Bluetooth) and it will work natively without setting up a controller profile.

That's not really what I meant, it's noth8ng to do with the controller profile, every controller just looks up, whether it's the mouse and keyboard or my wired xbox controller, I dint have a Sony console, so buying a dualshock would be a waste. Have you got a fix for the looking up problem?
Anyone else?
Nvm worked it out.had to enter some type of code onto a terminal emulator. Search it on xda forums if you need it.
Hey all,
So I got SNES9x EX+ sideloaded and booting up just fine. Loaded up some games and was playing away. Something felt off and I noticed that there is just a tiny bit of input lag from button press to game. Has anyone else experienced this?
I am using the Amazon game controller or whatever it's called, if that matters. Wasn't sure if this was a known issue, or do I need to edit/change anything?

I tried to use a Nyko playpad pro which from my understanding is the same as the fire controller. I noticed a lag with it, basically made most games unplayable. I switched to a xbox 360 controller using the usb receiver dongle and it is working superbly.

Excellent news, I'll give that a shot, thank you for the reply.
I've had inconsistent lag with a MOGA Bluetooth controller, both on my phone and on my FireTV stick. Sometimes it's spot on, but then other times the lag will get me killed. Old school gaming does not work well with any input lag. I'm glad I read this before buying the Amazon controller.
Now I wonder if I'll find a way to get the XBOX controller to work on the FireTV stick...

Yah it's kind of strange... Other games seem to work just fine with the controller (and I kind of like the controller). Mostly have played the Sev Zero seems to work just fine with no input lag, felt like just playing any other system, but SNES 9x EX+ or whatever just didn't work well with it.
Hoping to try out the Receiver + 360 controllers today and verify no input lag as someone had suggested.

I have an xbox360 controller with usb receiver and am getting about 1-2 second lag on keypress. I use the same controller and receiver on my pc and there's no lag. Both are official MS products. I found this thread because I was looking to see if the amazon controller showed similar lag with an snes emulator (Snes9x Ex+). Looks like OP is having the same issue I have with the FireTV controller, but it looks like you aren't having the problem with my same setup, unless you're using 3rd party.
Did you do anything special, or just plugged it in and all was well?
I have both the Nyko playpad and the Xbox 360 wireless receiever. I have noticed lag using both controllers (on most emulators). Playing around with the refresh rate settings in the emulator seemed to help some. Changing the refresh rate to 60 worked the best. Disabling any TV motion effect (120hz or greater) for your Fire TV input also helps, but I don' think the lag is completely eliminated. I'm interested to see if anyone else has ideas/input. It doesn't seem like a controller issue.

The 360 controller + receiver definitely improved for me over the Amazon game controller, but there is still a tiny bit.. I'll try messing around with some settings as well that were mentioned in this thread.
Super Mario World was way more playable though, with the 360 controller + receiver.

I did nothing special, just plugged it into my 4 port hub with 0 lag on NES, SNES, Genesis emu's. It is the official Microsoft wireless dongle, not sure if that matters

Interesting. My controller and dongle are both official microsoft products, but I don't have a hub. Is your hub powered? Also, what emulator? I'm mainly interested in SNES at the moment and am using SNES9x EX+
With my DS4 controller it will work beautifully for about 5 minutes then I would get massive input lag .. like minute delays making it absolutely useless .. it also makes my firetv remote useless .. as if the Bluetooth reciever is absolutely jammed up. I have to restart or disconnect controller and wait 5-10 minutes before I can use any bluetooth devices ... soo uhh if you have input lag maybe try a non bluetooth controller
Has anyone else experienced this?
Yep definitely lagging the system with the Xbox 360 dongle. I have to unplug the dongle to make the system stable again.
i have the same probleme here on Fire TV Stick with Bluetooth controller! Is there a workaround or any news??
Perhaps we could write a bugreport to amazon?
I also agree with esdouble, but the thinking of my way the RetroArch emulator is one of the best emulator.
I only came to this thread researching if the Amazon Fire TV controller was any better than my Stratus XL which constantly has input lag issues when playing SNES 9X on my Fire TV 3 Gen which I see is no better.
Hi,
I've been connecting my ps4 controller to my nexus via Bluetooth. I've been using fpse and epsxe emulators. The controller works fine for about 20 seconds then all of a sudden a huge delay happens. E.g if I press x there's about a 2 or 3 second delay. Is there anyway to fix this?
Android version
KitKat 5.0.2
Thanks!
i think its an issue with nexus not maintaing enough juice to the micro usb otg.
i believe its the root cause of my wireless keyboard timing out
Hi everyone,
I'm really disappointed as I have tried to play using PlayStation 4 controller redmagic 6 global rom but unfortunately it's not working properly as I faced movement issue like "delay"
" specially when I play cod mobile, I have recorded a video see below link,
I really hope someone can help me with this as l had tried to communicated with nubia technical team but unfortunately they did not help me.
Also I was thinking to root my phone hoping maybe will solve this but I'm not sure.

I have the same issue. I find I dominate using the triggers on the red magic though.
A work around I do is using my razer Kishi, I connect my ps4 controller and play with the razer Kishi with no lag. Ps4 controller needs to be connected but u don't actually use it cos the lag over Bluetooth is like you've shown
Mind to suggest for trying gamesir x2 gamepad. It is working like a charm! Beside, it is cheaper than razer Kishi in my country currency.
Dual Shock controller work fine but do not use bluetooth use cable like this
I'm having all sorts of issues, tried with cod and could only get a few of the buttons to work, no movement at all. I get the same when trying Xbox cloud too. A couple of the buttons work but sticks nor d-pad has any input what so ever. Am I missing something?
