Anyone know of a compatible gamepad that works with the Transformer? I know there is the Datel Wii Retro Wireless controller, but I was hoping for something to use via the USB ports.
You could use a Wiimote along with a nunchuck controller or a Wii classic controller.
Looking for a USB gamepad, as I don't want to use bluetooth.

uh...why not bluetooth?
I think he is wanting an actual d pad plus analog stick to plug into the device. Which brings me to ask this question has anyone sync the ps3 controller to it?

Not the most powerful hardware in the world, but should be able to easily emulate up to, maybe including the PS2? I never saw touchscreen devices as serious gameplaying devices because I'm archaic and need physical buttons and controller pad/joysticks, but this certainly changes things with native support.

The wiimote is confirmed working. I'm listing game controllers in my master Emulator and Rom compatability thread, stop by and list the emus and roms that are working for you.

Hey everyone, if you haven't tried onlive on the 3d, download the app and grab a free lego batman game.
Anyway, my question pertains to the onlive controller and the 3D's bluetooth. I know that the wiimote and PS3 controller cannot connect to the stock rom to play emulators or anything. So, does anybody know about the Onlive controller? Is it compatible with the 3D's bluetooth stack? I just don't want to shell out $50 to find out. Thanks!
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Onlive controller on the Evo 4G
I'm using it on my evo 4g. Turns out you need android 3.1 or 4.0 to run the controller,so I'm running deck ics alpha1 in one of my boot manager slots. I don't think cyanogen 7.1 supports HID, from what I understand that's the problem, the master and slave are switched. They say connected but no response form button input. It works on 4.0 but it's a little laggy, still testing.
Thanks for the reply! I think the best way to go about it would be getting a transformer prime

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.

I havn't tried any yet, but it's a start. You may want to try one or two then post a controller specific thread to catch the attention of those who already have tried and done what you are working on. Hope that helps.
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.

Hello all. I'm trying to get my Xbox 360 Controller working with my HTC EVO 3D. I bought a mini usb to female usb so I can hook both things together--but the indicator lights on my controller does not work. It is running Android version 2.3.4 and HTC Sense version 3.0. I'd like to know if there is a way to get these two paired and working with the app OnLive. Thanks.
Edit: So I ordered a PS3 controller. I'm very new to this stuff, so can someone explain how to get a PS3 controller paired with my phone for OnLive and explain how to root it? Once again, thank you guys so much.
You can't do it.
Microsoft requires certain drivers, and so you'd need the drivers on Android.
Ps3, however, is a different story. I've used a ps3 controller with onlive without problems.

I've edited original post for new question instead of creating a new topic. How do you pair a PS3 controller with HTC EVO 3D? Thanks everyone.
I know that the official PS3 controller works on Android 4.4.2 either wired or wireless.
But can an unofficial controller like the Gioteck VX-2 also work with android in the same way?
Does anyone have one of these controllers to confirm before I buy one?
I'm using an unofficial 11$ one from amazon. And the sixaxis apk. Works fine
