Please help. Controller needed without root.

I know there's hundreds of threads about this but I need to be sure. Is there any way for me to use my ps3 control ( or any other apart from the wii) that I can use with my emulators on my Samsung galaxy nexus??
I have read that ice cream sandwich has native use of the ps3 controller. I tried using a female/female USB to connect my controller to my phone but it won't register in any games or on Bluetooth.
Im really not confident rooting my phone as I've just got it and I'm not used to android yet.

You need to root your phone to do that. I was hoping I could avoid it. Plus i can't the compatibility checker to work, possibly because its not compatible. I'm trying to do it via pc.
Lol. Really not giving up.

Galaxy nexus gaming

Would I be able to connect my Gnex to my TV using a micro USB->HDMI adapter, and then connect a Bluetooth controller and play games? Would this work or would they interfere with each other somehow? Thanks!

Would definitely work. Tried it already

What kind of controller did you use? I'm having a hard time finding one, keeping reading about having to install drivers?
Anyways if this works then I don't get all the hype about ouya.

I have only tried a PS3 controller, which worked fine in my experience. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscompatibilitychecker <-- you do need an app to get it working (that is just the checker you would actually need the paid app). I am sure there are other controllers, but since I already owned a PS3 so I haven't really shopped around.
What is the hype about the Ouya? It is inexpensive. Not everyone has a smartphone or a tablet. Even fewer have one that can manage HDMI out. A lot of the ones that do, are more expensive than the Ouya, especially when you also factor in the higher end internal specs of the Ouya. Also you would have to consider the price of docks, cables, and a controller into this price.

Toolkit for CMW, Root, and ROM's on Mac?

I have replaced the optical drive with an additional HDD and i cannot install Parallels on Bootcamp. Is there a workaround to use OSX for rooting and flashing ROM's successfully?

I rooted using the exploit, I only have a macbook right now. I've had little luck with anything for my note 2 and Mac, probably same for this note.

Unfortunately, in the last six years I've been messing with Android devices, I haven't seen much in the way of development utilities being ported to Mac. Definitely never seen these all-in-one toolkits. Development seems a bit slow for this particular device whether its because of the high expense or lack of cellular radio, so I wouldn't hold your breath.
Do you have the hard drive space for a BootCamp solution? I hate rebooting my Macbook just to get into Windows to mess with my devices, but its a small price to pay.

I thought if doing the boot camp thing as well, I definitely have the space. I should do that.

There is plenty of space. 240 ssd and 1 T but, bootcamp doesn't install unless I will put the optical drive back in the Macbook and install Windows in ssd. A bit more of a hassle but seems like the only way

I would like to to know also. Plus maybe getting Slimport to work would be nice. I think Xposed might be the way.

Was this phone supposed to have slim port? That would be awesome since I have a cable not getting use since my flexible nexus 7 decided to getting a cracked screen a couple months after buying it....

Not a 100% sure but I thought I read it did or could. Just like OTG the hardware is present it just needs to activated.

It Arrived Early

Got mine delivered today (8/19). After having all 4 Notes this is my first non Note phone in 4 years. Always bought the Note series for screen size and powerful hardware, and not the S-pen which I never used except to try it out and screw around, so yea, it's not important to me.
If you want to use Samsung pay, don't root. I read an article from chainfire if you root you can't use Samsung pay. Even if you unroot you still can't use it because knox is triggered to 1

Well for me this phone looks like a note . If we are talking about the size. Btw ....amazing and powerful device. I got mine yesterday. Cant wait for root. I dont use or plan to use samsung pay. I would like to debloat this baby!!

There's a site that has root working but for other devices though I sure wish someone could use that info there and share it here.
