Does this app, or anything related allow PS3 controller capability on an Atrix? Is there anything else (app or mod) that can enable PS3 controller input?
Specifically, can this app allow the PS3 controller to work for emulators; i.e. be able to keymap for N64iod and whatever the best PSX emulator is currently?
If this is not possible, I saw some user's on YouTube using a wii remotes to play their emulators. I have a classic wii remote that would work very well/the same as a PS3 controller. Can someone point me in the right direction to set this up with an Atrix? I can not seem to find anything related to setting up an Atrix with a wii remote.
LOL your post just made me try it! and take it from me, this works 100%!!
Man Mario 3 is now awesome again LOL this is madness!
Works like a charm. I tried it when it came out. SNESDroid works great and fpse as well.

Maybe I should post this on the general thread and include an additional link on how to configure a wii remote too?
I configured a wii remote to work on my n64oid and it works great too.
Ya I don't think this belongs in Q&A anymore

While I don't have much experience with PSx4, I've used FPse for a while now and love it. I've been able to run every game I've tried just fine with very little slowdown...even over webtop....
My only complaint about FPse is that I can't use the "Screen filtering" option without dragging the fps down to about 40-45. I'm hoping as the ROMs mature and speed up the Atrix, this will improve.

Okay, The Note runs N64 games FLAWLESSLY.
From what I understand, fancy controllers like ps3 sixaxis and wiimote/nunchuk won't work with stock galaxy roms because of some low level bluetooth incompatibility. You'd have to wait until CM9 or similar comes out.
So, I'm looking for the best bluetooth gamepad to use with N64oid and BluezIME if required. BluezIME has official support for a few, such as Zeemote, PhoneJoy, and iControlPad. The only one out of those that has an analog stick is the Zeemote, and it only has 4 additional buttons.
For a good N64 controller, it needs an analog stick, 6 buttons (A,B,L,R,Z,START), and another analog stick or a D-pad for the C-buttons. Something like the ps3 controller would be perfect: 2 analog sticks, 2-4 trigger buttons, start button, and 2-4 regular buttons.
Is there one with the needed buttons that is compatible?

So the sixaxis does work with N64oid? Can you comment on the performance and button mapping? Can you map the C buttons to the right analog stick?
I havent used n64oid. Ive have used snesoid and nesoid with the sixaxis controller and used button mapping.
Alex, you WANT "Datel Retro Wireless Gamepad" - can get it at:
http://us.codejunkies.com/Products/Wii-Wireless-Retro-Controller__EF000622.aspx
Been using it with PlayStation emulators, n64oid, everything. Full botton mapping works great and easily connects. Worked GREAT with my Atrix and now my Note. Search for YouTube videos of it being used- arguably the most popular wireless Android gamepad. Highly recommended.
Hope that helps.

ebay has one!!!!!!!!!!!http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NINTENDO-...ash=item5647fe72cb........................for 94 bucks lol
That costs pretty much the same as a PS3 controller. Might as well get a brand name sixaxis/dualshock.
Wondering if there is a Bluetooth Controller out there that will work with the Note? Since it is a nice big screen, wanted to try out some emulators with it.
From what I have read, the Wiimote Controller app won't work with newer Samsung devices... So that one is out.
The Wiimote controller not working is a damned shame. I just bought one last month for my rooted Nook Color (which I don't use nearly as much anymore with this baby).
The other options (I know of) that you can explorer would be finding a PS3 Dualshock controller like this:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0015AARJI/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?ie=UTF8&m=A302LUH0HSUQW7
However, you must be rooted to use a Dualshock controller. You could try using the OnLive controller, but that only works with the OnLive app.

I have the ps3 controller working all you need is the sixaxis controller app from the play store (Market) in the description there is also a program you need to download to your computer to reprogram the controller so i syncs with your phone and not your ps3. It's pretty easy took me about 5 mins. Only downside is there is no free version of the app so you have to pay or *cough*acquire it*cough*.
With the PS3 Sixaxis app and controller... you have to be rooted. Or so that is what I have read.
Not sure if I want to root just yet. I am afraid it will somehow pose problems when ICS is released.

Rooting itself won't hurt the update, but removing any system apps, or freezing, will cause an update to fail.
I'm looking for a controller to use with my att
note. What are my options? I used to use the Wii mote with classic controller on my old iPad. It didn't work the same here. I see these female usb adapters do they work using a ps3 and or xbox controller? They all say Android 3.0 or higher. Or how bout the Gamestop wireless controller. I have all the consoles so i rather use a controller i already have if possible. Btw I'm looking to play gta3 and emulators snes nes gba.

Well i read wii mote doesn't work with touchwiz our something. i just figured there had to be someone who has had some progress. I don't wanna be buying things if it doesn't work right now. They all say honeycomb 3.0 our higher for usb host.

I've seen it work, but that has always been on custom ROMs, not sure if the use of a wiimote is restricted to custom ROMs due to proper BT drivers being cooked into them or not. I never really had any desire to try it, but you're making me curious now as I have a Wii with all the toys and add ons that no one touches anymore.
Well there isn't many roms yet. I did try saurom with the wiimote and it wouldn't fully sync. The remote was found but kept blinking and just shut off. Is there a usb host on the g note? Does the female adapter work. Cause i have seen the gs2 with that working on stock ROM and this phone isn't far from that. It would be awesome to use the xbox wireless receiver.

Have you tried Bluez IME?
I had wonderful luck with that, but then again I was running CM7. It becomes a keyboard input, and the android thinks you have a bluetooth keyboard.
Give that a shot.
I no longer have a wii to try it out on :/
Im using sixaxis to connect to a ps3 controller with bluetooth.
Running stock rooted.
Edit-to connect the ps3 controller you need the sixaxis app and you need to go to their website and get software for your windows pc(you will also need ps3 controller drivers), then connect the controller to your pc and use the software to edit the mac address to our phones bluetooth, the sixaxis app will show what your mac is.
They may have the same software for linux or macs, I do not remember.

Is it wireless? That'd be pretty funky to have to hook your ps3 controller into a pc in order to play on your phone.
I suggest a 6ft. Mini-USB cable attached to your laptop pc with a USB extension cable and placed on your favorite coffee table or flat surface. Add to that the HDMI cable for the note, and you have a pretty cool setup. Would it be practical? No. But would you earn major geek cred points?
You betcha.
Wait this is only to set it up at first right? After that i can use the ps3 controller at will? Without the pc.

On the atrix I could use the Wiimote perfectly fine. Unfortunately I believe it's a problem with newer galaxy s phones. I tried almost every app but no go so far.

Ok so the ps3 controller works flawlessly.wiimote won't work with touch wiz devices on stock ROM. Bluez ime don't work as far as i know unless i just don't have a supported controller. I couldn't get it to sync anything but for the ps3 remote just download sixaxis from the play store and the sixaxis pair tool from dancing pixels website on pc and connect the controller through usb cable, change the Bluetooth mac address on the controller and it will sync right up. This works for all games and emulators with on screen touch pads. I can now play all n64 snes nes games with a ps3 controller and gta3 sonic cd reckless racing all work amazing. Its the most useful controller app I've seen yet. Best part combine this with mhl hdmi out and you have a portable console in your pocket. Still haven't figured out multi player though.

What apps/equipment etc do I need to play games on my Note on my TV and use the PS3 controller as the controller?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
You need an MHL Adapter and an HDMI cable to view your device on your TV. The MHL Adapter needs to be compatible with your device. You can get one cheap on Ebay but add the name of your device in the search kind of like this MHL ADAPTER GALAXY NOTE. To use the PS3 controller you will need a real Sixaxis controller not a knockoff and you will need an app called Sixaxis Controller from the market. Install the app and follow the directions or you can do a google search to get the directions on how to setup the PS3 controller cause u have to hook the PS3 controller to your PC and change the bluetooth mac address before it will work.
Since it looks like you have BOTH the PS3 and the TV, why not play with the PS3 instead?
Just a heads up. I've only had luck getting this to work on ICS ROMS(or gingerbread). I haven't been able to get the MHL adapters to work with Jellybean ROMs. I might be the only one here.
Now if they could only get Vice City to work for us......

He might not have a PS3 and/or isn't trying to play PS3 games on the Note (I don't even think that's possible).
I say that b/c I am guilty of both myself. I bought a PS3 controller just to play games on my phone. The adapter is laggy for games though, only good for movies IMO.
