i think itd be possible to do it with any of the current gen controllers, but the wii mote app does not work on galaxy because it uses an old version of bluetooth and our phones have a newer version.
How would you pair the controller? I dont think ps3 ones will pair without a usb connection during pairing.

thats the easy part, u can do that by booting off a linux live cd and running a program called sixpair, or WinDS3 on Windows. The hard part is getting the Galaxy S to recognize it

what? How would you do that on your phone? I nkow you can get it working on a pc, but you can PLUG IT IN on your pc. You can't plug it into the phone, and even if you had a cable allowing it, I don't think it has USB host, so it would never see the controller via USB to pair it..
I think he meant that you have to pair the ps3 controller to a pc or something other than a ps3 prior to trying to pair it with the phone. Have seen it discussed in other threads. Relating to his second comment, I am under the assumption that we don't have a proper HID implementation within the bt stack on our phones, hence why we can't connect bt keyboards, mice, etc. At least thats the way I understand it.

yes, you do initial pairing through a PC and put the master address of the bluetooth on the phone. thats how its done for windows mobile thats how itll have to be done for android seeing as how Sony chose to make the pairing over USB instead of wirelessly.
Can someone tell me how can I do that ? Should I apply some settings in Sixaxis or Joystick Center ?
You just have to plug it in through USB OTG and you're good to go.
Afaik you'll need an app for the Bluetooth connection tough.

In Sixaxis App just plug in through USB and hit Pair, and USB/BT App plug a BT dongle into OTG and hit search to get dongle's address then plug controller in through USB to pair then unplug and hit search and should find controller over BT.

Sorry to hi-jack the thread but do you still need to be rooted to use sixaxis app on the GS3?
I only ask as my stock TF101 works flawlessly with a PS3 controller over BT after pairing via a USB cable - no root required! Is that a general ICS thing or just a TF101 thing?

Hey guys. Today I bought OTG cable. I tried play Nova 3 with Ps3 controller. ( I didn't do anything. I just used cable. I can control homescreen, apps. But I can't play Nova 3.
help guys Now I have cable but still I can't play some games.
Only some games have built in support for controllers. NOVA doesn't, but if you get Sixaxis Controller you set-up touch profiles so different keys will emulate motions on the screen, that's how you can do it.
Also, only certain devices support PS3 syncing via BT without an app, my Sony Tablet S has built in support, you plug it in, turn bluetooth on and it's synced via BT, but the GS3 doesn't, so if you want to play without the OTG cable, get Sixaxis controller.
Nooo, I want play with OTG cable. How can I use Sixaxis Controller with OTG cable ? Or, Should I try Joystick Center app ?
By using sixaxis controller you'll be able to create profiles for all games , even nova 3 k:

USB/BT controller (I think the app you're referring to) also has Touch Emulation via a plugin (it requires Root just like Sixaxis Controller does though for touch emulation), but as others are saying, why would you want to do that when you can do it wirelessly? Wireless connection affords you the advantage of being able to also connect to MHL and your HDTV...
Anyways, more information here:
I can't do Sixaxis. I think USB/BT Joystick Center is easier than Sixaxis. But I can't find Ps3 controller buttons in Button mapping.

Why can't you do Sixaxis? It is definitely easier than USB/BT - the video above has a guide for a Nova 3 touch emulation and Sixaxis pairing and the blog has a touch emulation profile you can just download and start using!
Hi there!
Very new to this but have a quick query.
I'm in NZ. Have updated to ICS. Want to pair PS3 controller WITHOUT Root. Have a theory. So did the following.
- Bought the PS3 Controller Pairing Tool and USB/BT Joystick Center 6 from App Developer POKE64738
- He says that these appas can work on ANY android phone
- Had no luck finding a cable to connect the controller to the phone until I saw a "New USB 2.0 Mini-A 5-Pin Female to Micro-B Male Adapter F/M Data Cable Converter" on ebay.
- By theory, the "Pairing tool" on the phone should pick this up.
Any feedback from you guys!?
Shot fullahs!
UPDATE
UPDATE!
Have purchased the cable (
Apparently trying to pair a PS3 controller to the Xperia S is a mish and that a 3rd party controller will be just as good! But the problem is I want to go Bluetooth and not play through USB (though I wouldn't mind it) So yeah bro's... will letchu know how it all shakes out!
At least I know that OTG works!
Kia ora!
There you go !

But that's only WITH root. B3NZ0 wanted to pair PS3 controller WITHOUT Root.
That's a big difference you know.
I'm also looking for a way to connect my PS3 controller to my phone even if it's with a cable, but it seems an app is required as it gives me a power error otherwise, if I connect the controller only with the USB OTG.
The only way it will work via usb is by using livedock

Hey guys!
So the OTG works. That's fine.You just cant plug in the PS3 controller directly otherwise the phone come up with that "power consumption error" and more importantly THERE'S NO POWER CHARGE TO YOUR PHONE!
FIX 1:
You have to use a USB hub (4-port works fine/unbranded) for the error to go away. I've plugged in the PS3 controller with it's original cable and it works fine. You just need to remap the button config in the settings of your chosen emulator. You can also plug in your BT adaptors for your wireless mouse and keyboard. But then there's the power issue, so you'll also need a USB 2.0 at both ends to plug into hub and charger.
NOTE: *ID RATHER NOT DO THIS METHOD BUT IT WORKS.
FIX 2:
Cleverly enough, this V-TYPE OTG cable (USB 2.0 Female/Micro USB Male/Micro USB Female) is the way to go. Simultaneously gives charge and can connect hub, flash drives, BT adapters... You can find this on Ebay. Just enter Micro usb OTG with power.
BT ADAPTER:
I've purchased a Belkin BT Adapter (2.1+ EDR) to go wireless. So first, I tried it on MotionInJoy. Paired it and works fine! But it doesn't work when I plug into the USB hub. Apparently cos it's not CSR compatible... but it is. So will have to fiddle around with it more.
KIDIGI CRADLE:
Ive also purchased this cradle by Kidigi. It works fine and charges. Doesn't quite sit in there but you won't notice after a while and looks great! However, the rear only has the micro usb female port (for charging and data transfers) and lacks the support of an ac power input (for charging) and 2 usb 2.0 ports (for BT mouse/keyboard/ps3 controller?). You can google this or go driectly to kidigi dot com or facebook.
I've spoken with them and sent them a pic of the Xperia Ion cradle/dock (which has the mentioned features) hoping they can mimic the rear of the Ion's dock onto the NEW Kidigi Xperia S Dock 2.0!
If they actually DO MAKE THIS, then our problems would be solved! Why?
1) Nice and sleek
2) The ability to power cradle with AC adapter so no power issues
3) The addition of 2x USB 2.0 ports will allow access for our wireless peripherals (mouse/keyboard), flash drives and would no longer need an OTG as the profile would be built into it which would be good news for us users wanting to pair the PS3 controller
3RD PARTY APPS (for pairing):
To pair with an UNROOTED phone these apps would be the most suitable:
1) PS3 Controller Pairing Tool by Poke64738:
Pretty straight forward. You NEED a USB hub to do this cos of PCE (Power Consumption Error). It will ask you to turn on Bluetooth. Say yes. Then hit search. If the app can't locate it then reset the PS3 controller by pressing the rest button at the back of the controller. NOTE: This app ONLY pairs the controller to the phone!
2) USB/BT Joystick Center 6 by Poke64738:
This app is tricky so it takes time to find out how to use it. The help menu is useful so don't neglect it. After figuring it out, you must do the following:
FOR USB POWERED:
- Plug in PS3 controller with cable into HUB.
- Open USB/BT Joystick Center 6
- Window will pop-up asking to allow app to access USB device. Click OK. (note the device name in grey on the top-middle of the screen)
- Your device should show up as "PS3 USB Controller (1)"
- Touch to access the drivers.
- Test controller by pressing all the buttons. You'll notice the "buttons" in the driver slot will go red. These buttons are your default configs. You don't have to change anything just hit BACK button NOT HOME button! Hitting BACK will save the settings.
FOR WIRELESS:
I've yet to do this so will post up when I have something!

You can also possibly use the Kidigi Cradle with a Micro USB OTG with power.
Its a V cable or Y cable allowing for power charge and USB hub and PS3 Controller connected via USB

USB hub will work for ya but then again some drain and some don't! and because there are so many out there, who knows... but I have a third-party one made for the PS3 console itself and it works fine.

UPDATE #3
Hey guys!
So i've finally got the peripherals I need to do the following:
1) Pair my PS3 controller to my Xperia S successfully
2) Find an alternate power source
PAIRING:
After using the 3rd party app with a little bit of patience and persistence and a BT dongle, I have finally paired it! ABOUT TIME TOO! So now I can play my MAME games wirelessly! WOOHOO! :good: I will post up pics or vid tutorial for those who want it.
POWER SOURCE:
I have a V cable (mentioned in previous posts) that acts both as a OTG and charger (USB 2.0 female (flash drives etc) /micro USB male (OTG) /micro USB female (charge) Unfortunately, I think mine is a dud. There is no charge going through so will see what I can do.
UPDATE #4
Hey guys!
Just a reminder that this whole topic is for UNROOTED phones only. Since there is lack of support for UNROOTED phones on this very topic, I thought it would be nice if I stepped in to aid our fellow XPERIA S users out there in the world. I'm still unable to post links and pics so might put something on my facebook page if that helps.
Otherwise, i'll PUSH - post until something happens lol
LIVE wallpaper concept
Since we're on the topic of PS3, I thought to share this. My Desktop on my PC. The blue wave in the background is still but was animated to act like that of the PS3 wave. I was thinking to make some LIVE wallpaper based on the OS3 wave for Xperia phones and tablets. As you see, it has a more fluid-like texture to it rather than the flowy-movement type of the PS3 console.
So I bought a cheap OTG cable off amazon to connect my ps3 controller to my phone. I followed all Dancing Pixel Studios' instructions and I can use my controller while its plugged in, but it won't pair through bluetooth. When I press start it connects to the controller, but after it connects I try to click pair controller and it says "No controller found - please connect it via USB cable. The cable I bought is kind of janky, it only works when I position the cable just right. I don't think the cable is the problem because I get it to connect and I keep the cable in the exact same position and click pair and still nothing. I even tried pairing it in the bluetooth menu but it just keeps pairing and pairing, and nothing happens. BTW, I am on the latest cm9 build from gray wolf with little to no issues. Any help would be awesome!!!

I've been using my PS3 controller with a Nexus 7 so it should work pretty much the same. To get it to pair through bluetooth, you must go to the dancing pixel website and download a little exe called something along the lines of bluetooth address changer or something like that. This will let you change the bluetooth address of the controller to the bluetooth address of your rezound. The controller will then pair with your phone through bluetooth. hope this helped!

If I remember right it's a Bluetooth stack/ Bluetooth driver issue on the
Rezound and other Sense phones. I believe there are some Non-Sense Roms that have the correct Stack/driver that will fix the issue but I can't remember which ones they are sorry. Also have you tried Wii remote? That works for me even on Sense Roms.

You are correct, the only way to pair a ps3 controller on an HTC device, is to be rooted, and have an aosp, or an aokp Rom on ur phone. That's it. Plus.... You need to have an OEM ps3 controller. Any cheapo controller won't work

Ok so currently there is something wrong with USB mounting where even through dock it doesn’t show up.
To get this to work do the following:
In play store search up ‘xplore’ and download it.
Open xplore, go into settings and scroll to where it asks if you want to use it’s driver. Tick that and go back. Plug USB in to dock and when it asks if you want to mount it select yes.
Voila!

I believe this is only in regards to usb storage. I downloaded xplore file manager and found the option that op mentioned. When I plugged in my xbox 360 controller wireless adapter nothing new happened, but when I plugged in a flash drive I did get the prompt they mentioned.
Controllers work if you connect via dock and yes it was ‘xplore file manager’
Was there anything else you may have done? Also, which controller were you able to use with this method? I tried connecting my xbox one controller to the dock over usb with this open and nothing popped up on the screen and the controller wasn't working. The controller just vibrated.

Kodi and USB drives
Hello all! First post here. ^^
I’m wondering if you guys have been able to use external usb drives with Kodi.
I have used the app “Microsoft exFAT/NTFS for usb by Paragon software” to mount a NTFS drive to the switch. I can use the app “x-plore” to browse my 1TB drive and can play all my songs and media. However I cannot find the drive in the kodi app. I would greatly like to be able to add all my media to the kodi library.
Any suggestions guys?
Thanks
Should also be sure to remove the Switch Game Card. This was not doing anything, then after I removed mine, it worked perfectly. Just don't use the HORI Dock. That damn thing does not work at all.
Quick update: got the USB to Ethernet adaptor working while docked - just download the app called USB Device info and it will activate all USB ports while docked

I have had success with “Microsoft exFAT/NTFS for usb by Paragon software”. But it isn’t free.. The price will depend on which file format your usb drive is.
