Okay so big ol' edit:
None of the games respond to the controllers with the exception of Minecraft. Either wired or wireless. I've tried ds3 and ds4 but they only move the a selection highlight around all the apps and will lunch them. Things like discord and signal will respond to button prompts but the only game to 'recognize' the controller as a controller is Minecraft.
I'm running LOS18.1 and when I connect to a ds4 controller via bluetooth none of the button mapping works. I'm wonder if anyone has had this problem before or currently?
I've installed the 1controller magisk module but that had made no difference.
The games I've tried to play have worked in the past with a ds4 controller and even have mapping for the controller such as Dead Cells.
Yes, I could use an otg cable but I was gonna use my one usb slot for scrcpy to make the screen "bigger."
Oddly enough the only game that works is Minecraft so would other services like Xbox Game Pass also work?
I've seen other forms and posts saying those with the 7T on OOS have had the same issues. But those are at the least a year old and ranged from OOS Android 9-11.
What has me the most puzzled is why would all the controller mappings work on my 5T running LOS18.1?
Okay now a wired ds3 doesn't work nor does a wired ps4. What the?

Today I scored two PS3 controllers at a pawn shop for $25. I just tried hooking them up to my XOOM with a USB hub, and the system recognizes both of them. Cool. So, I pop open Mario Kart and test out two player mode.
In the SNESoid settings, there is an option for a second gamepad. I mapped the buttons to one PS3 controller to the first pad, and the other to the second, however, they both seem to want to control player one and two at the same time.
So, has anyone been able to set this up correctly?
No one's tried to play multiplayer with a hub?
Sent from my Xoom using XDA App
sorry I can't help with your question, but I was wondering what cable you use to connect a single ps3 controller and what software you need (drivers, etc.) Thanks.
I haven't tried to use a hub and a multiplayer game but i will try tomorrow and get back to you. But my otg host cable of choice is this one. I didn't need any special software, just an emulator and some roms to play. Just make sure you map all the buttons on the emulator.
Yeah, it doesn't work: the USB drivers map controller presses to keyboard input (including the analog stick). Therefore though honeycomb recognizes both devices, the output from them looks exactly the same from an app perspective: just keyboard presses. Same thing goes for using a PS3 controller with an Xbox controller. Best thing to do is wait for wiimotecontroller to support PS3 controllers via Bluetooth or mix in wiimotecontrollers.
That's what I thought.
I even looked online to see if there was a way to hack a PS3 controller to make it output different keys. For example, instead of making the directional pad use the up, down, left and right keys, totally remap it to use something like H, J, K and L etc. Unfortunately, this is impossible.
We need a Playstation 3 bluetooth app like what Wii controllers have.
Has anyone bought this:

I want to know if this works in emulators and such, and not just OnLive.
I've tried a PS3 controller connected via sixaxis, and it doesnt work in Onlive. I might consider this if it worked in onlive and emulators.
I'm not certain about the OnLive controller, but in the faq at OnLives site there is this...
---------------------
Can I use a controller with the OnLive Game Service?
Yes. The controllers currently supported are:
•OnLive Wireless Controller (OnLive Game System only)
•Microsoft® Xbox 360® Controller for Windows
•Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Controller for Windows (requires the Microsoft Wireless Gaming Receiver)
•Logitech® ChillStream™
•Logitech® F510
•Saitek® P3200 Rumble Pad
•Mad Catz® GamePad
----------------------
Not sure because I've not tried. But I would guess that one or more of those will do what you are asking.
That said I would like to know the answer to your question as well. Looks like a great controller.
I do have this controller, but I do not have any hd dock or lapdock to test it out for you
He wants to know if OnLive's Universal Controller will work with any of the emulators on his phone, such as SNESoid, NESoid, MAMEoid, and so forth. Sixaxias Controller is an app that lets you connect and use a PS3 controller on your Android device.
I had the same issues with Sixaxis Controller and Wiimote Controller with OnLive. I think this is because both of those are mapping functions to some kind of keyboard function, whereas OnLive's app does not any any keyboard function build into it to use native keyboard. I was able to do limited stuff such as play the "getting started" video because one of the buttons acted like the "s" button on a keyboard.
I have preorder the controller, but I order after they changed the estimated shipping date to the 20th. I don't know if any controllers have been shipped yet. I have heard of some people being able to connect a Xbox 360 controller to their phone with USB adapter for the wireless dongle; so in theory, you may be able to use it with the phone.
Bump, looking for the same thing, anyone tested the controller with GTA3/emulators/etc? Does Bluez IME work?
There's a thread in the Flyer/View forum where a member states that it does work with emulators. I believe that HC 3.2+ is required for tablets and ICS for phones in order for it to work, though.
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.
I have two Amazon Fire TV's both rooted with the latest custom roms, Kodi 14.0a3 and several of the emulators side-loaded including RetroArch, along with a 32gb flash drive in a USB hub, along with a usb dongle for the wireless keyboard. I cannot get any of the emulators to work with multiplayer gaming. I have the following controllers:
RedScorpion Bluetooth Controller
Ouya Controller
Vizio Co-Star Controller
several generic USB controllers (PS3 style and XBOX)
Can someone tell me what the best controllers would be? I cannot figure out what controllers or settings I need to configure to allow any of these games to play multiplayer. I have a big family gathering coming up and would love to get the games to work.
I'm really frustrated and would love any and all advice at this point. I've read some people had success with a PS3 controller, others with PS4 controllers (albeit with Bluetooth issues) running Sixaxis, but I've also heard some say that the Xbox360 Controller works wirelessly, and others say it has to be wired.
If you've gotten this to work, please share your setup so I can copy it.
Thanks in advance,
Jesse
I'm going to first apologize for the cross-post, but I am running out of ideas of where else to turn, so please help me out if you can.
