Hi all,
Recently, I used my xbox controller via otg to play games and used it easily as simply plug and play.
But then i used a couple of apps to get some added compatibility ( USB/BT joystick gold centre and tincore keymapper ). After using these , i cannot use my controller without these apps. It is detected only by these apps and not as default whereas the same controller is detected by other devices as plug and play. These apps are buggy and keep crashing hence i cannot use them.
Please help me to revert the changes these apps might have made to the system's default configuration so that I can use my controller just like other phones do.
Thanks.

Has anyone been able to use the sixaxis controller simply by just plugging it in with a usb otg or is it still more complicated than that? Do you still need the sixaxis app for it to work correctly?
I'm also curious to know this
I was only able to pair the controller via otg cable and the app. That's better than always reconnecting the controller with my PC when I played on my PS3 before.
Is playing via bluetooth not a possibility for you?
Shadowgun is working fine for me with bluetooth. I don't like it when cables are hanging around and it's better when I play on my TV via MHL.
I just tried the new function of the sixaxis app which emulates the onscreen controls in Nova 2. That was still buggy for me, only moving worked.
So i have a rooted xperia Ion. (Locked bootloader from Rogers in canada. LT28i)
I have since jumped to a galaxy s3 because i dropped the ion and cracked the screen all up (still registers touch and displays image)
So my intent is to mount this onto the back of my TV with an HDMI cable , and keep it plugged in/always on.
I have purchased the sixaxis app, and have it paired to a dedicated PS3 controller.
Basically I am treating it as a dedicated android gaming/movie console. Just to play android games that support controller, and emulation, plus netflix streaming/ web browsing etc.
I am going to use Nova launcher to setup a home-screen, and lock it to simplify. And with the mouse emulation, and sixaxis setup, i should have full control of my phone.
Has anyone here done this before? and if so, what tips/suggestion/tweaks would you suggest.
Hmm interesting set up . I also recommend purchasing a usb otg dongle for when friends or family members want play media from usb disks on that big screen. Acquiring either the XBMC or Plex app is also handy to stream media from device, SD or Usb disk memory to other devices. I would also recommend installing a cm10 and custom kernel for your device.... For the extra speed :s
As the subject states, I was able to connect my WIRED XBOX 360 controller to my Note 1, Nexus 7 and Galaxy S4 Active using a USB OTG cable and play ANY games that support controller. NO mapping required - Dead Trigger, GTA, etc.
As a matter of fact, when I connect my XBOX 360 Controller, the analog stick work in the home screen and application folder.
However, with the Note 8.0.. nada. I know it's not the USB OTG cable because I can connect a memory stick to it and the Note 8.0 recognizes it.
Is there something in the Note 8.0 that prevent game controller to function?

it works with some third party apps (joy/bt center( enabling ime support but does not seem to work on it's own. seems like they disabled hid/game controller supoort or does not come factory activated game controller drivers.
the light on the controller starts blinking after a while, so something is there, but not enough to be any use.

Crap, that's not good. I didn't know that Samsung removed this specifically for the Note 8.0. Doesn't make sense at all, given that it works with pretty much all the Samsung device I own (S4, Note).
I like using the built-in support from the game (Dead Trigger) without installing 3rd party apps.
Oh well, I guess it is what it is. I may just replace my Note with the Nexus 7 then since I play games a lot.
Use ps3 controller. However there are many ways to connect xbox controller. Search in YouTube

TBH, some games might just still work out of the box,
I don't have any of those such games to try to check. (i'm more of a retro gamer)
Thing is if the USB BT/ Joy can use it then so should likely any natively supporting games that support Xbox 360 controller on android.
however for me it does not work on it's own in some of the emulators like drastic DS etc.
For the past 3 days I've been struggling to set up my PS3 contoller to work on my HTC One M8. First, I tried USB/BT Joystick Center and got the D-Pad to work, but couldn't really figure out the proper button configs so that games could detect them. Most of the other controller apps require root; therefore, I went ahead and did that. Then, I installed Sixaxis Compatibility Checker and it told me that my phone was compatible with the main app so I went ahead and bought it. Well, lo and behold it doesn't work. It seems that unless I override the MAC address of my controller, it won't let me pair up via OTG, Bluetooth-only seems to be the only way. Unfortunately, I can't do this because the drivers that I need to install to do this render my controller unusable with my PC games for some reason. I missed the refund window so I gotta make this work somehow.
You don't need OTG to link ps3 to phone. I've used the app many times on both my tablet and phone. I even use my ps3 on my laptop to play android games through emulation. I'll have to get with you later. Its 4am here, so give me time
