Has anyone successfully paired their DS3 / SIXAXIS controllers? - Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers

Has anyone successfully paired either a Sixaxis or DS3 controller to their Pixel 2 XL
I changed the MAC address to match the device and I've tried all of the following with Magisk.
Stock 8.1
Stock 8.1 w/ Flash Kernel
LineageOS
Are there any build.prop mods that I could use to force bluetooth to make this connection?
I read of someone having trouble on their LG V20 using Magisk instead of SuperSU, but I'm not convinced that would help. I have two Le Eco S2's running crDroid (based on LineageOS) with Magisk, and it syncs perfectly.
Sixaxis compatibility app says the device is capable, but the 4 red dots just blink endlessly when trying to pair after the server has been initiated.

[Q] How to force bluetooth mac (CM 12.1)

Hi.
I recently got a z1 compact and installed CM 12.1
However, there appears to be a bug where the bluetooth mac address is changed on every boot, so I have to repair all devices.
Is there a way to work around this and force a bluetooth mac? All the guides I found don't seem to apply to lollipop 5.1, so I don't know what to change.
Not only Bluetooth. There is also the same wifi Mac address on all devices...
so... no workaround, isn't it possible to force a blutooth mac editing a system file?

LDAC 8.1

So I have been trying to get LDAC or apt-X working on my razer phone but it has not worked. I am on the latest stock ROM rooted with magisk (via ADB not TWRP) and with the rayglobe magisk module installed but it just stays on AAC. My headphones are Sony WH-1000XM2 and LDAC was working when using the resurrection remix ROM from the development thread but I had to uninstall the ROM due to instability and no sign of progression. Any help would be appreciated.

They locked it down somehow I think. I have 2 threads in here asking for help but no one seems to be able to help me. For added reference, here is the error produced even when all the files are added with root to enable aptx or ldac
I installed the magisk aptx&aptxHD module and modified /system/vendor/build.prop then aptx got working.
(I couldn't test with aptxHD or LDAC cos I have no compatibe device with them.)
Code:
persist.vendor.bt.a2dp_offload_cap=sbc-aac
to
Code:
persist.vendor.bt.a2dp_offload_cap=sbc-aptx-aptXHD
This is the same parameter the magisk module set to /system/build.prop.
To guess, LDAC will may work if an appropriate value set to the prop.

This worked to enable switching to them however now Bluetooth just crashes. I changed it to persist.vendor.bt.a2dp_offload_cap=sbc-aptx-aptxhd-ldac
Edit:
Some interesting notes. I tried a few steps to debugging including readding AAC to the list which did nothing but if I only add aptx then the Bluetooth app no longer crashes however no sound plays so I'm guessing it's the lib files that are not correct? I just used the aptx package in magisk so if there's any other that I'm missing or other suggestions that would be useful

I still can't get it to switch to aptx (the one I want) or ldac. It still falls back to SBC usually or aac if I'm on a different speaker. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? I'm on slot a on my device, rooted with magisk and I have tried multiple aptx modules. Is there a specific build.prop editor you use? Both my speakers and headphones support it and work with other devices and I'm still getting the error I replied with above (page one)
I'm an experienced rooter, so don't be afraid to fully explain any steps I may be missing out!

I used root explorer and changed the build.prop entries in system\vendor\. In the first place I used the root essentials build.prop editor which shows a different build.prop. other than that I literally just edited that line and that allowed me to change it. I can't think of anything else I did other than install a bunch of library files which I'm guessing you found the same ones as me because it was very limited on what was available and up to date

OK, awesome. You rock. That got it to select aptx - now my 2nd problem, no audio! I can see in dev options and bt settings that it's showing aptx, but I get no audio (well, I get an almost click click click noise) then my Bluetooth adaptor for my headphones crashes. And it forces my headphones to turn off. I tried 3 different magisk modules for the library files, any ideas - I was getting SBC audio before

Sounds like the same problem I am having. Aptx doesn't work and aptx HD and LDAC just crash Bluetooth. Genuinely have no idea where to go from here. It must be a driver or library file. Real shame it's not working.
Edit: seems to be looping these messages in catlog

OK, so last night and this morning I have been just messing with things. I no longer crash my headphones and force them to turn off, but I still have no audio over aptx - though at least it's not crashing my headphones (Bluetooth in the phone was always OK). There is one error I'm getting and I'm not sure if its related of not, but is to do with a buffer failing to release. See my screenshots of logs (just documenting here for reference)
so basically i went your path a few days ago and dropped that idea. please post updates if you manage to get aptx\aptx hd\ldac working (Razer Phone + Sony WH-1000 XM2)

So, I might be an experienced rooter (no 1 click toolkits here) I am NOT a developer. I've tried a combination of a bunch of things to try and get this to work, and nothing has!
I did however get it to work by installing a GSI (basically a rom) to the device, but even that was painful to get working (well, installed). Now running AOSP 8.1 GSI w/gapps and I flashed magisk for root. I then installed the Aptx magisk module from the built in repo and it works perfectly fine. Not sure if It's something in razer software as I'm technically more up to date now so it's not like I was using the wrong drivers.
Can't find a decent dolby atmos I can install that will work along side v4a, all the magisk modules are for android 7 or 6.
Otherwise that's the only way I have found so far, sorry guys! - benefit is, other than AOSP's ****ty camera app (use the gcam port instead), literally everything works fine, and I even get stronger vibration on a GSI

Yeah I might move onto that too. To try to fix the Bluetooth issues. I can only assume razer excluded some of the functionality but since it's baked into android 8 I don't see why they would remove it.
Razer and their development team is already informed about this issue, and they have correctly addressed it, and all the Bluetooth issues (which were a few), in the upcoming update MR2. No ETA.

Go ahead, I can't since I'm on a Pie GSI.
If anyone has an LDAC BT Headset please give this a try.

Great news, I just spent 2 hours updating my phone, with flashing back to stock because the OTA did not want to update me since I had Magisk, then putting everything back like before.
The update did not change anything.
Tried to do my research on issues with the Razer phone before getting it, but I guess this is just one of those things you don't comprehend until actually having the device in your hands. I came from a Oneplus One on Lineage OS and am comfortable with flashing (but no experience with GSI yet).
My razer phone is stock and not rooted. Anything I can do to contribute to test getting Apt-X working? The settings says my phone is up to date (build number OPM1.171019.011-RZR-180803.6033).
Got the official Pie installed - no LDAC nor AptX still.

PlayStation apps on px3

This was my original setup stock unit:
Px3 (1024x600 0)
Android 7.1.2
Patch lvl may 5 2017
Kernel 3.0.101+
Mcu version mtcd_xrc_v2. 58_1
Cpu arm cortex-a9 @1.6ghz (x4
I flashed Hal9k Rom and currently have magisk v18 installed. I then used magisk to install Sony framework to be able to use Sony apps.
I installed remote play and psvue. I then proceeded to hide them with magisk hide. I still get errors for remote play (the one saying my device is rooted) and psvue comes on without the black screen saying it isn't supported for rooted devices. However I can't scroll down the screen to click sign in my account.
If anyone at all can help me, I would be very grateful and so would my children during long commutes to and from.
UPDATE: I got PSVue to work flawlessly. And I though I got remote play working but unfortunately, it will not register ps4, however the app itself isn't blocker or detects my root. Getting closer to my overall goal.

GSI images - bluetooth audio issue

Hi all,
have a motorola one zoom (parker), could test succesfully 3 GSI roms,
(Lineage, Havoc OS, and plain AOSP 10 222), in all of them, bluetooth audio
is not working, after pairing/connection with bt device, audio seems to move to
the device connected, but just after audio comes back playing on local cell phone,
as if bt is crashed.
I have found in this forum some threads saying to remove 2 specific file
from /vendor/overlay. None of those 2 files is there, and overlay just have
some subdirectories.
Changing codec seems not helping.
This is the only obstacle i have with GSI images, bt on stock image of course work,
would be great any help.
thanks !
Found this in the logs
A2DP_VendorLoadEncoderAptx: cannot open aptX encoder library libaptX_encoder.so: dlopen failed: library "libaptX_encoder.so" not found

Question GSI on G30

hello, a few months ago I put a GSI on my moto G30 (ArrowOS), I actually liked this GSI a lot... but I can't use some phone functions like bluetooth and headphones on the P2 output...
I use headphones a lot and I was using one with a USB Type-C output but this headphones is having some problems and I want to go back to using my JBL bluetooth headphones that I stopped using because it doesn't connect with my cell phone...
But I don't remember how to put a GSI and I don't even know a good one that I can have a good performance on battery and in games...
Can someone help me?
Hi. GSI performance doesnt varry that much if at all so pick any you like best.
Look at phhusson's GSI List to find a GSI that is compatible
(Must be a higher or equal Android version to the one your phone has stock and the GSI shoud be A/B and arm64)
Your problems sound quite generic and are mentioned in the GSI Troubleshooting FAQ
Such as:
Wired headphones not getting detected.​Solution 1​Enable alternative headphones detection in phh settings and reboot
This one ^ worked for me and should work for you too i believe.
Bluetooth connecting to device and then disconnecting​Try disabling A2DP offload in phh settings
I've tried this too but cant remember if it worked, what works for me is going to the Bluetooth settings for the device and disabling HD Audio.
You can find more fixes on the link above.
About installing the GSI first flash the stock ROM and then follow Sammm77's GSI Flashing Guide.
You can try ArrowOS again with the fixes above and see if they work or pick another GSI.
If you need any clarifications i would be more than happy to help!
