[Q] ROM that supports both MHL (TV-out) and Sixaxis? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm currently running CM7.1 and really liking it, but it doesn't (and as far as I can gather it never will) support the TV-out adaptor. I'm looking for a ROM that will let me use a sixaxis controller with TV-out so I can play emulators on the big screen. Anyone had any luck with this?

Any stock ROM, as Sixasis supports stock Samsung ROMs since October 19 (version 0.3.2).

Wow, I did not know that! I guess I'll be heading back to stock!
Thanks for the headsup!

I got SGS 2 with rooted stock rom KF3 (2.3.3)
With sixaxis app it looks like everything is ok (I got the message: successfully configured bluetooth)
I successfully changed the bluetooth adress on my PS3 controller with sixaxis pair tool.
when I hit the connect button on the controller, the 4 lights are flashing but I don't get a connection. everything looks good, but I can't connect the devices.
anybody got an idea?

PlayStation Controller with USB Adapter

Has anyone tried this? It would be cool if you could turn off the on-screen controls.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qx_XvUEUoP4
Edit:
I wonder if you can plug in a USB keyboard. Haven't seen anyone try that yet. I need to get an adapter an try it out.
I do know that you can buy a Bluetooth keyboard to use with the tablet that you might be able to map buttons to and use.
Also I do believe there is an App floating around that will allow you to Bluetooth the PS3 controller (or the Wii Remote) to your device to use with games.

I think honeycomb supports most usb controllers including ps3 and 360, I cant try it until I get an adapter though. Like is said above there are apps that let u use dualshock 3 via bluetooth, but I think they require root access.
Yes, you can use USB keyboard and mice. The Dual Shock 3 controller doesn't work (ironic, yes?). There is an app to use the DS3 and it requires root.

The ps3 controller is closed in as when you connect it with a pc... btw you can remove the on screen controls in the options...
Also... Lisa, I truly enjoy your very indepth reviews and previews of products...it is always your reviews that manage to go deeper than any review site I visit (eg. The usb port on the S) Glad to see u really are in depth if your on this site! I bought my hp TM2 because of you! Same with this really great tablet! Thanks!

Thanks Lisa. I really enjoy your reviews!
Thanks, glad you enjoy them
Unfortunately the PS3 controller doesn't work. Sony's proprietary bluetooth is at it again. As you all know, Sony never likes to play well with other companies...and in this case, not even with their own devices. I ordered the logitech controller and an OTG USB cable which I'll try out today. I figure it'll work nicely and bluetooth would be even better. We'll see...
I have tried with a proper sony pad and can confirm it wont work via bluetooth or usb. it`ll connect to a rooted device but as the tablet isnt rooted yet it wont work.
I`ve talked to staff in a couple of Sony centres and they have said they have been told by sony reps that it will work with the controller soon.

Any update on whether the logitech controller works or not?
It works with the USB Adapter. Played my PS Certified Games just fine! It works on other games as well, but its hit or miss.

Yes, I use it with my emulators and it works fine. The controller itself leaves a little to be desired but with the OTG cable I bought and the logitech controller's usb dongle, i can now game a bit better on my tablet. I also bought the dock so that I could have the screen vertical.
You can use a mouse and a keyboard with usb.
I have plugged in the official wired Xbox360 pad and it works! The only problem is that the buttons are all mapped differently for the playstation certified games and there is no way of re-mapping them. For stuff like emulators where you can re-map the buttons it works amazingly well.
Has anyone tried using the PS3 DS controller ever since the PS Store came out? Just curious if it included some kind of software patch to allow the PS3 controller to work since Sony has stated that soon we will be able to use the PS3 controller. I just don't want to waste the money on the logitech controller just for the tablet when I have like 4 PS controllers lying around.

I Just tried and it doesn't work, all it does is flash the 4 red leds on the pad and that's it.
I think we need the Tablet rooted to get one working via usb
Damn! I'm probably going to try this when I get home from work and I have time to try pairing this to my tablet and then getting a refund if it doesn't work, unless someone wants to try it first. It says it doesn't require root, but the reviews are a bit iffy:

I'm leaving work early today (3:30 Eastern Standard) - I'll try to fit it in before my evening class.
Ok so after purchasing, no dice. The pairing was successful, but the server app still needs root to even start. I had no problems purchasing it because a have a bunch of android phones I should be able to use itwith. But as of now, the app doesnt work for the Tablet S. Would love to see rootcoming down the pike for this thing though...
Thanks for the update. I figured with the so/so reviews there was probably going to be an issue with the tablet s.

Does the Xbox 360 controller work for you? (ICS)

Recently got a OTG cable for my Note and can't seem to get the wired Xbox 360 controller to work with ANY games...yes, even ones with native support (which are the only ones that will work) like Dead Trigger and GTA III.
I know the cable works as the wireless mouse and keyboard combo I have works fine...so it isn't a hardware issue I don't believe. The controller I know works as well (use it on my PC).
So what gives? I got all excited about playing games with a controller only to be let down...:crying:
Using stock ICS ROM...should I maybe try another ROM? Does stock not support it? I know the GSIII ICS does (looking at YouTube videos).
I think you have to use USB/BT joystick center app found on the market to be able to pair with Xbox controller. I just got my otg cable and have not tried yet but I know it works on international note. Need to find my wired controller.
I got USB/BT...it finds my controller and the controller works through the program (as in the buttons are functioning, etc) but still a no go with games.
I've even installed a couple JB ROM's to rule out an ICS issue. Nothing seems to work here...weird...
Works for me using padawan but it drains my battery one percent minute when playing games.

CM13 gamepad support

I just got my Oneplus X and was really excited that the installation of CM13 (cm-13.0-20160511-NIGHTLY-onyx.zip) went very fast and smooth. Unfortunately the phone doesn't seem to recognize my gamepads (PS3 controller with USB OTG cable and Logitech Rumblepad 2, also with USB OTG cable). Both controllers work fine with the same cables on my Galaxy S4 (GT-I9515, stock ROM).
So my question: is there a way to add/enable gamepad support (driver) to CM13?
(I had the same problem some time back with a Moto G 2nd Gen - stock ROM. At the time the answer was, that Motorola didn't include the driver in their OS and the DEVs here at XDA couldn't get it compiled. I really hope that with CM13 it's possible.)
Thanks!
In the mean time I tried the AOKP nightlies (aokp_onyx_mm_nightly_2016-05-09.zip), same result. None of the two gamepads is recognised. :crying:
I also tried the PS4 (DualShock 4) controller, still nothing.
Try an app called sixaxis
I too would love to get my PS3 controller working with my Oneplus X using USB and not bluetooth - tried both CM13 and stock ....any ideas ??

Sixaxis doesn't work with Marshmallow anymore. Android changed something in the Bluetooth stack and the Sixaxis team didn't release an update yet...

Tab s6 dualshock 4 controller

When connecting the Dualshock 4 controller through bluetooth it does not work and while disconnecting the whole setting is struck, cannot even turn off the Bluetooth without rebooting. It does not even work on the ps4 remote play. Does anyone have the same problem with tab s6 or any solution?
Have you put it in pairing mode (Hold SHARE & PS button until the lightbar rapidly blinks then use the Console's original USB to connect the first time)?
Same issue here
It paired correctly but it doesn't work in any way and when I try to disconnect it the bluetooth menu freeze until reboot. Tried on my s10 too and it works well there.
I've also tried connecting it via USB cable and it seems to work in that way. Probably a software issue. We have to let Samsung know about this.
It's amazing how many people will learn of the news of Remote Play being available on all android devices but don't take the time to read the rest of the news.
Even if you get the controller paired with the tablet, it's not going to work with the remote play app. It's been stated multiple times that proper DS4 support won't come until Android 10. Some people have gotten it to work with the older models of the DS4 controllers (the one with the terrible battery life and no light bar in the front) but only wired and even then, it doesn't work for every phone and tablet out there.
Does not work for me too. Even with USB. Same controller works great on my Nexus 6P with Andorid 9 though.
I contacted Samsung Support twice about that but they just talked around the problem and didn't bother to reproduce it. So I think there won't be a fix soon. Maybe with Android 10. One UI sucks, btw. Would so love the Tab S6 with Vanilla Android.

The DS4 works 100% via USB on the S8 (US). I've used the S10, N10+, and T S6 (US models). DS4 input is ignored by all. Thankfully, I own the BT enabled XO controller so it's all good.

After the October update I just got it seams to work good. Wireless and wired! Unfortunately as stated above the PS4 Remote Play app works with the DS4 starting with Android 10. So my pixel 3 works. Not so my Tab S6. And the alternative Pstreamer does not yet work with the PS4 7.0 firmware.
After today update (1st September patch) the controller had start to work flawlessly as it does with my s10. Try to manually search for the update or wait until it'll come

So globally, only (for now) the xbox one controller works, over BT with the Sams. Galaxy Tab S6.
This I understand from online information.
Perhaps some one can post his/her experience with this.
Or does indeed have Sams. a secret partnership with MS, this looked at the price of an xbox one controller.
I assume not, though.

I have updated my firmware after the latest update the controller works fine I think it was a bug. But for playing playstation remote play ds4 is not supported unless android 10. I hope it comes faster that the rumored date :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:.

Xbox one controller not working through USB otg

Currently not rooted and completely stock. Noticed my xboxone controller doesn't work for some reason.
Works on my s9+ however, and mouse and keyboard through tab s6 usb hub works. So I'm actually at a bit of a loss.
Any input is greatly appreciated, I've tried everything ?*
Just to clarify for myself: you are using some kind of USB C to A adaptor to which you connected the Xbox controller, yes? If this exact setup works on an S9 then I would try a different adaptor before anything else. If the hardware connection really is solid then I would have to think the controller is not supported for some reason. An oversight more likely than not IMAO.
Why are you using USB OTG instead of just using bluetooth?
I don't know about OP, but I do it through OTG to use my Elite controller, since the v1 doesn't have Bluetooth. Works perfectly fine on my note 9, but not on this tablet in the xcloud app. It does work in the steam link app though, so I'm not sure what is causing the issue.
I'm using official Samsung adapter and a third party one. Both work on my s9+. My xbox pad is not Bluetooth. I also tried a switch pad on Bluetooth and input lag was woeful.

You have the exact same issue then? I can't fathom it. I'm an engineer as well so I've tried literally all possible combinations and have proved everything works everywhere. Just not the xbox pad. Strange issue.
Has anyone found anything? I'm having a similar issue with my Moto G8. It seems like some phones can connect and some can't
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-power/help/wired-xbox-elite-controller-via-otg-t4167763
I also found that The controller is detected via USB/BT Joystick Center but the the keys won't register and the light doesn't come one.
