So I bought myself today an otg cable to use it for some video game playing on my LG G3. I use a dongle to connect my (very) old PS1 controller to my phone. But when I want to play sth like Asphalt 8 or Modern Combat 5 nearly all my buttons (except the D-pad and analogs) are treated as one and the same button. I thought it was the fault of the dongle or controller so I connected another controller and got the same problem. The controllers work fine on my pc but the default mapping is somehow crazy (even in my launcher all buttons are like the same). Keyboard and mouse work fine. And my android version is 5.0 v20f. Can someone please help me.
Thank you.

I have a PS2 controller that i connect trough an adapter to convert the PS2 port to USB, then i connect the USB Male to a Hub that i connect to the Female USB connected to my Galaxy Nexus... a little bit confusing...
Is necesary to connect the controller in this way, because if i connect it directly trough the microUSB to USB adapter it doesn't work, i don't know why.
The problem start when i try to play games, because it looks like the system detects the x axis is stuck! I try it with 2 controllers that i use regularly with the PS2.
I tested the controller with Shadowgun and Riptide, and both games are having problems... with Shadowgun the character is stuck in a circular movement that doesn't allow me to play, and Riptide seems to work fine, but when the character jumps just a little, it falls inmediately because he tries to make a stunt.
The problem doesn't stops there, because i'm not able to play Shadowgun until i reboot, because the character continues his circular movement, despite the fact that the controller isn't connected.
For the moment i don't have any games to try, but i know the controller works well, because i used it several times with a Toshiba Thrive without problems.
I'm using AOKP 37 + 3.0.8 - GlaDOS-v1.34.
Any help or suggestion would be very appreciated!

If you have a ps3 controller with cyanogenmod I know you can pair it using sixaxis controller app. But it costs $ on the market. At $60 retail you may be better off picking one up at a gaming store, eBay or Craig's list
Galaxy Nexus, enough said
I know the PS3 controller works, but since i don't have one, and i do have a PS2 controller with all the cables/adapters/connectors, i think it worths the try. Besides, the PS2 controller worked for me with Honeycomb! The only difference between the Toshiba Thrive and the Galaxy Nexus is the full USB port in the Thrive.
Ok, i tried it with GTA 3 and the character is spinning to the left...
I think maybe it could be the Hub, but i tried it with my PC and there's nothing wrong with it.
I was wondering why i need to plug the controller trough a Hub instead of plugging it directly to the Female USB? If i do it that way the controller is not detected at all!
C'mon, nobody have any clue about this issue?!
I'm going to try if it works using a Stock Rom of Ice Cream Sandwich without a custom kernel.
Again, your help is truly appreciated!

Ok, i was trying to get results with other Roms but i got the same results...
I installed the stock ICS 4.0.4 without Rooting nor Recovery, but i got the same results...
How can't anyone have a clue about this issue?!
I realized that when i try to set a button of the PS2 controller in Shadowgun, no matters what button i try to set, the Joystick Axis 3+ button appears.... and actually thats the one stucked...
Please! Any help?
Hi all!
Is there anybody here using USB gamepads with the Note2 ?
I'm having some difficulties: in most games (GTA3 Vice City for example) all of my USB gamepads will work for the D-pad but none of them will register the buttons, so I can move and that's all.
I've tried with a microsoft gamepad, a mini foldable gamepad (Dicota) and an unbranded simple gamepad.
BUT the Sixaxis is the only controler I have perfectly working including with Vice City when plugged to USB.
With emulators, that's the same, except for Fpse that natively recognizes all of my gamepads
I've tried apps to change the buttons values, but in vain, only the Sixaxis fully works in USB
So my question is: what USB gamepad do you have successfully and completly working with the Note 2, or is there something to to to get them fully working?
I want to play Vice city using my foldable gamepad (way smaller than any BT gamepad and just plug and play)
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.
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.

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
