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.

Pls Help
Here is what I did:
1. Installed the Sixaxis Controller app, opened it, and found the local bluetooth adress on the bottom-left of the screen.
2. Downloaded and installed Motionjoy Gamepad Tool on my computer.
3. Connected my ps3 controller to my computer using USB, and clicked "BluetoothPair", then "Custom MAC" on Motionjoy.
4. Entered my prime's bluetooth adress, and clicked "Pair Now".
5. Removed the usb cable and went back to my prime and changed input method to "Sixaxis Controller".
6. Clicked "start" and waited for it to say "Successfully Configered Bluetooth" on the sixaxis app.
7. Pressed the home botton on my ps3 controller and voila, it's connected!

but it doesn´t work for me ;(
i have done all from your HOW TO , but ...

PLEASE HELP
Ok. When you connect the ps3 controller to the computer and open Motionjoy and click BluetoothPair, does it say "Have paired to:" then the bluetooth adress next to it? Since it does say "Client Connected" once, then I think you got the setup right though.
Did you try to connect the ps3 controller to the prime using USB and pressing the home botton? Are you able to use the controller with USB? If that works, then I would try sixaxis again and make sure wifi is turned off. If it still disconnects, then I would try connecting another bluetooth device to the prime, to check if that is the problem. Also, if you haven't, try to reboot. If it still doesn't work, then you might have to use the USB cable.

some one how can help PLS ?
WTF ;( ?
Try this and tell me if it works:
1. Plug controller in with USB port connected.
2. Play around with it to make sure it works for a bit.
3. Push the Playstation button and unplug it from the USB at the same time.
Weird, but it works for me, lol.
If you bought a cheap ps3 controller off ebay it might be the problem, yes. It should be super easy you see, so there might be something wrong with the controller. I'm assuming you don't have the dock, so you are not able to test if it works on the prime using usb?
When you are pairing it, this is how it should look like:
I don't have Sixaxis installed, it's unrooted, and it works fine with bluetooth. I don't know why you're going through the trouble of using Sixaxis at all.

Tried 7 times, doesn't work for me when I turn off bluetooth. If it works for some with it off, then it's just a glitch probably.
I'm guessing it's a glitch, they fixed it in the update that I got I bet. Now it shows up in the actual bluetooth controllers in bluetooth settings, Woot! It caused reboots and i'm sure it was linked to that.
You conecct it without an app? If i want to pair manual it dont works .i have to do any settings in sixaxis ? Profil or anything?

ok, first i had to wat da hell?
The knockoff PS3 controllers like the one you got from ebay DO NOT WORK. i learned that the hard way too. Something with how they authenticate, it works for a PS3 but barely, i can connect it to my computer and use it as a controller for that, but for sixaxis controller on my tablet, no way.
Spend the money, buy a real controller. Used game places, pawn shops, i found one with the old packaging at my local TheSource store (TheSource.ca) for like, 15% off. I bought it, it works awesome.
As far as apps go, sixaxis controller is the way to go. Pay the couple of bucks, its worth it. Actively updated, new features seemingly every other week. just do it. you wont be sorry.
As far as getting the controller to connect:
Get this app:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller&hl=en
Go to here and download the sixaxis pair tool:
http://www.dancingpixelstudios.com/sixaxiscontroller/tool.html
Other apps can do the same thing, i have used the one in the screenshots previous, however it reverses the mac address. Just use the one i linked, it works with no hassle.
Plug in sixaxis controller to your computer, use the tool to change the mac address.
Start the app on your tablet, it will turn off bluetooth if its on so no need to worry about that. start your sixaxis controller, it should connect pretty much no problem (as long as its genuine, if its a knockoff good luck)
The latest version of the app has a USB pair ability, you can connect your controller via USB and that, for whatever reason, worked on my knockoff controller. weird.
Hope this helps, i know its not the news your looking for. As of yet i cant find anything to get my cheap controller connected, aparently it uses nonstandard meathods for connecting to the PS3 so theres no definate way to make it work 100%.
Thanks for that i buy one and test it later.
I have to change the controller settings game by game ? Also for GTA one and other for shadowgun? Do you can send me your settings if i need it.
Thanks guys for your help

Hello,
I am a kind-of-advanced Android user. I know my way well around the os, but i'm not a programmer of any kind.
I recently bought a fairly cheap Yarvik tab (TAB264) running ICS 4.0.3. with a USB host and so far it has nothing else than impressed me !
What i'm trying to do is connect a game controller via USB to play games in emulators. I have a authentic PS3 controller with usb cable and an Xbox controller for the PC, with a USB dingle for wireless connection to the pc / tablet. I do not have bluetooth on my device, but i do have a bluetooth dongle. However, this is not plug and play. If i plug in a keyboard, mouse of mass storage device the tablet will recognise it. With a bluetooth stick this is not the case. I have seen serveral video's where people just plug in their xbox controller and it works, they only have to map the keys in to emulator and they are good to go. In my case, as with the bluetooth dongle, it is like its not recognised.
Is there a way to download drivers for either one controllers, universal controller support or the bluetooth stick ?
in short:
- Can i use the PS3 controller via usb ?
- Can i use to Xbox controlle via usb ?
- Can i install drivers for the bluetooth stick so i can use the ps3 controller wireless (whis would be awesome since bluetooth would be nice)
I hope for a fast response thanks in advance !

I read somewhere that XDA has a special developed driver in case the XboX controller doens't work. I searched the forum, but i cant find it.
Link, andybody ?
Anybody, options, please ?
Really, no one ?
Hi, I'm wondering is there any way to force atrix games to work with some gamepads different than PS.
Today I installed Need For Speed Most Wanted and game is nice but it's hard to drive turning phone or on that little stering wheel.
So I have HD Dock and tried it with Xbox360 wirelles pad with original USB adapter but phone said that it's not compatibile USB device. I tried same thing with Ligitech Cordless Rumblepad 2 and there is no error message about USB Device and adapter blinking when i hit buttons but no reaction on the phone. I know i should use some emulator but none from market is working.
I don't wanna buy PS pad only to play few games so I figured that maybe somehow I can use USB keyboard to play.
So maybe someone have some emulator to remap keys on USB keyboard to work with NFS??
International Atrix, 2.3.4, non rooted, locked. Ofc I can root phone if it's needed.
I'm sure there's apps to remap keyboard.
Also try a wired Xbox controller not the wireless one and not the charge kit.
Sent from Moto Atrix 4g on Neutrino 2.91
I just have Xbox360 wireless pad and Logitech Cordless Rumblepad 2 and I'm trying to avoid buing 3rd pad only for Atrix cause it have no sense.
Thats why I'm trying to deal somehow with what I have.
There is a guide in another forum that was posted a while back on how to edit your rom to have it read the wireless controller as a wired one and apply the same profile to it, I suggest you search for it and try it.
I tried plugging my wired Xbox 360 controller on my lapdock using CM9 (Yes it was open) but it didn't stop blinking... I don't even know if the USB supports other things than USB storage on the Atrix.
USB keyboard and usb wireless mouse working fine so it supports more than memory sticks. As I said before adapter from Logitech pad is not shows as unsupported USB device like Xbox adapter but I have no idea how force it to work. I read that most working pad emulators isn't working on Gingerbread so maybe it's the problem.
If the USB pad in question supports the HID protocol, you could be in luck. Otherwise, you're probably screwed.
Thats right, completely forgot about HID. If I'm not wrong all HID devices should work. I'll check that Logitech pad but as I remember under windows it's discoverable without any Logitech drivers so maybe it gonna works. Otherwise any tweak to remap keyboard to work with games?? I know keys can be remap from /system/... but I don't need to remap keys permanently but only for few games so it can work even on some emulator.
I'm wondering that anyone work it out how play games on external keyboard yet cause it could be very easier than typing on screen or rotating phone and now smartphones are bigger and bigger and it would be very comfortable to play on full keyboard and big screen.
It's easy to add usb support for the joystick/gamepad generic and xbox controller but you need to recompile the kernel avec joystick and xpad module.
I'm working on a keys mapper for the 360 controller and I built a kernel for that but I shared it only at french users on a other forum ...
It's only the kernel build with this source : http://sourceforge.net/projects/atrix.motorola/files/Atrix EMEA/4.5.2A-74_OLE-20/
And 2 or 3 options to get ntfs, cifs, ext4, it is not unified and I have build a little software with java 7 in french to add the command line in it with tegra part and serial as a original.
It works fine on the retail fr 2.3.4 rom.
If you want to try it : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11889182/kernel/Kernel_2.6.32.9_djeman_v1.0.rar
And the original thread : http://forum.frandroid.com/topic/12...adjoystickxpadcifsutf-8ext4ntfs/#entry2078963
I don't found any good mappers for the 360 controller on the market so I'm working on mine.
If others peoples are interessed by it, I will make a translated version and a subject here.
I can confirm that my regular (not wireless) Logitech controller works fine, although not with all games.
Connected to a Lapdock.
heres what i discovered from experience.

Custom ROM (cm9+) and stock roms ...with many kernel changes, I've always had same result.
1stly on the Atrix, unlike most tablets, the USB port doesn't give any power to the device.
I tried an otg cable with no luck so I modified it so power ran through the cable.
I also have a multimedia dock which produced the same result.
I can run and mount usb devices (storage) so I can transfer data or watch films; mounting is aided by a USB host app on the play store.
Any time something like a Xbox game pad is inserted dmesg shows it was noticed but not identified, so it doesn't look like it will work without manually adding the drivers/modules to support the device.
I have a friend with a nexus 7; Xbox control will work on that with a basic otg cable; only need to map the gamepad keys and in some cases such as emulation apps the keys are already mapped.
Hello Guys!
I hope somebody can help me with this problem.
I want to use my xbox360 wireless controller with my Honor 7, but after I've updated to the newest B170 firmware, I don't get any recognition in games.
On B140 I was able to control the UI with my controller, but now nothing happens. I think they forgot to implement the support for xbox controllers...
Is anybody out there who can try to use his/her xbox wireless controller?
And is there any way to inform Honor about this bug?
I would not like to see this bug in marshmallow too...
best wishes
sebster97

I used my USB-OTG cable to connect my phone with the xbox 360 usb receiver.
It's the same device I plug into my pc to play games with my wireless controller
Hey, I have an answer to this,
1. You need an app called USB/BT JoyCenter Free. Download the apk somewhere online. I'm using version 3.0100
2. Plug in your XBOX360 wireless to your phone using the USB OTG adapter.
3. Open the app, inside, top left, switch the IME to ON and choose the USBJoyFreeIME as your input methods
4. In the app, click on SEARCH NORM and it will start scanning for the controller. When it scans just click on the box that appears. Your controller should connect to your phone now.
Apps that are suitable would be emulators, I normally use this method for PPSSPP emulator. Hope this helps
