Hello, I have been wanting to connect my Xbox 360 controler to my unrooted Gingerbread Note i717 and wanted to know how or if its possibe.
Thanks,
Soggy
i dont think it will work on gingerbread but if you update to leaked ics and install usb/bt joystick center app you can pair a wired or wireless controller. there is a free test app you can try first but says need 3.0 or higher with host support.
Thanks friend.... im not wanting to rood and install ics on this phone, i will have to wait for the official ics to come out or if anyone else has an idea chime in...
Thanks,
Soggy
It'll work with a ps3 controller if you have one laying around

How can i connect it to a ps3 controller? Thanks!
Did you ever think somone would have more than one phone.... Not to be an ass but why does someone always chime in with a stupid question that has nothing to do with the topic. Yes, i have a rooted captivate and a rooted htc inspire but the question is for my non rooted i717 DOES THAT MAKE SENCE?
http://www.androidnz.net/2011/11/samsung-galaxy-note-connectivity.html this is a good video that shows a ps3 controller(generic) running on note natively. game play starts at 8:17 if you want to jump straight to it. you should just be able to pair using bluetooth. i have not tried yet with note. i had to use sixaxis app for it to work on my epic but i dont think you need it for note.
Thank you s89281b for the link and info i will watch it.... much appreciated!
Thanks,
Soggy
My apologies for taking this off topic. Look up sence in the urban dictionary that's some funny stuff.

Alright I'm not sure if you guys are aware, but our phones are capable of tv-out via HDMI, and this is done via the MHL protocol which attaches an adapter to the usb port for simultaneous charging/HDMI out. Taking advantage of this I thought "hey it would be awesome to rock some emulators", but the traditional bluestacks/wiimote combo is not compatible with our devices due to some driver issues and samsung bluetooth stacks. So I scoured the internet looking for a solution that wouldn't involve me having to buy a bluetooth peripheral, and found out about "Sixaxis" control; this app allows one to use their existing PS3 Control as a joystick/input method, and works extremely well. It's worth the buy and is extremely smooth.
So After you have and have set-up the Emulator with your rom; you've set-up the Six-axis control from the instructions, connect your phone to your TV through MHL, set-up the input settings, and have fun!
Here's my Set-up

Huh? sixaxiscontroller works with Samsung BT stacks????
That's new... Usually using that on a Samsung device (other than Tab 10.1) required CM7.

That shocked me too. I paid $50 for a phonejoy to get around that.
I too was already expectant of the lack of bluetooth for stock roms, since I tried the same with the Captivate. But a random google search showed it running on the Galaxy S II (International Variant), so i gave it a spin!
Damn... I'm gonna have to grab my sixaxis from the car and bust out A Link to the Past...
thats pretty awsome

Nothing beats old consoles, just me replaying my childhood memories of Smash is amazing, considering how fluid it plays from our phone!
Ya know even with the video I was a skeptic. To test it they have a test app that can be used to verify it will work. You still need to go through all the steps and part of it involves a pc but the whole thing does work.
I loaded snesoid and mapped the joypad and buttons on my ps3 controller to the emulator disabling the virtual pad and the trackball options while I was at it. Once done I was playing super mario all stars on it pretty easily. There is virtually no lag between the controller and the game.
Tested on a stock rooted rom. No custom roms flashed at all which means I definitely used the standard samsung bluetooth stack to test it.
im running UnNamed and it says its not compatible. any ideas? or do i hav to run CM7?

First of all your phone needs to be rooted for the application to access root permissions, then install that app, and there's 2-3 times it'll ask for root permissions where you have to grant them. It should say it's compatible.

One thing I've encountered:
Running Sixaxiscontroller will cause a semipermanent bt_wake wakelock in the kernel. You need to reenable (and maybe also disable) BT in the main Settings menu to clear it.

Hey guys, did anyone know how to use xbox 360 controller with our great phone? I'm using cm9 and can't get it to work. I've been looking for it for some time, but can't get straight ansowers.
If someone knows how to do it please reply. I've tried usb host controller but it gives me message that S3C driver was not found. So can we somehow apply this "driver"?
Thanks in advance.
Have you ever tryed with other controllers? like ps3 or something like that.
I think you should look for another solution..
You may have better luck asking in the CM9 discussion thread. Sounds like an issue with the USB driver in CM9, maybe.
Afaik ps3 cobtroller world ootb. Ill ask cm9 devs, but I dont expect ansowers Since they are busy

Just got a usb otg cable and ps3 mock pad which works just fine, however when trying to get a wired Xbox 360 controller to work, it doesn't seem to like it.
So I did a little search and found an app which someone has used in a video to show off exactly this as well as other otg connectivity.
The app is called USB/BT joystick center.
There's is a free version which is the only one I can get for the galaxy s 3, the paid for version isn't available apparently, even though I think it may work, I've no issue buying it but I can't as it won't let me.
The problem I have with the free one is that I install the center app, which is needed, I am able to see my Xbox controller, then there's a second app which is used to map keys etc.
This app always says that the center app is not installed?
There is very little info out there about this app and this particular error.
I know it can work on the galaxy s 3 as I've seen it in a video, it has been posted on xda recently and it is legit.
Does anyone have any ideas on this please?
Many thanks.

Well I bought it the other day and haven't really played around with it much yet but I tried with wired Ps3 and 360 and it is showing key inputs. and you can also use a wireless Ps3 controller but you have to plug a compatible Bluetooth dongle into phone first to get Mac address.

You right it's not on the market anymore for some reason, but I bought it on the 19th for £2.89, and I was searching for days for a cracked version and every one I found just started up with a white screen and crashed.

Yea that's exactly what happened to me, so what I did was switched my old evo 3d on and signed back into it, for whatever reason its available on sensation and the evo 3d. So I bought it, backed it up with titanium, copied the back up to my phone, restored it then allowed it to verify my email address, which it did and now it works
What a pain in the Arse that was.
Now I've got the problem of trying to decypher the actual app lol, all fun an games.

If you're Rooted then Market Enabler might help see it in the Play Store (for newcomers to the thread).
What are some good gamepads that can be clipped on to the EVO 4G LTE? I have a PS3 controller and that works good, but maybe there's something that can fit onto the EVO 4G LTE.
I was looking at http://www.amazon.com/Gametel-Porta...id=1346540532&sr=8-8&keywords=Gamepad+android but it kinda looks "meh" due to the odd looking D-PAD

The way that ICS works for PS3 controllers is that after you plug it in the first time it will automatically pair with the controller over bt so you won't need the wire again afterwards.
As i'm not sure whether the phone can charge the controller or not, in which case if it does i wouldn't want it sucking power off the phone during use, i would just get the one without wires for less stuff to lug around.
No idea if using the controller will interfere with BT headset functionality if you use any with the phone, but i do know that when i'm listening to music autotether doesn't work properly so that might be something to think about.

Awesome! I saw a review when it first came out. It was around $50 at the time. Definitely getting one now!
Pretty easy to replicate the design, its off to blender I go to build one.
Hello everyone on the xdadevelopers. As always before posting here; I rummage around the internet in hope of answers from any source I can. Sadly, I've not been successful in my quest and now will turn to the minds of you wonderful developers who have taught me alot already.
To cut a long story short, I'd like to play ROM's on my emulators with my NEO Controller by Subsonic. I opted for the NEO as it seems a fair bit larger than the PS3's toothpick sized controllers (to me anyway).
Does anyone know of any way I could achieve syncing this controller to my Galaxy S2 as I'm at my wit's and technological know-how end.
I'm open to all suggestions and am more than happy to donate to whomever can find me an answer and get this sodding thing working!
Thanks in advance to any and all suggestions.

hello.
have you tried the sixaxis controller off the play store.
i used it to use my ps3 pad on my phone for roms. you need the sixaxis controller from the market and and the paring tool for pc/mac to change the bluetooth and adress of the pad to the same as the phone.

SixAxis requires your phone to be rooted. Do you have root?
Also, it states in the play store entry that it works best with OEM PS3 controllers, not 3rd party controllers.
And what exact model of GS2 do you have?

Yep, my phone is rooted, I'm currently on Simplistic ROM which is a samsung based ROM I believe. I've also tried it on Cyanogenmod10 ROMs and MIUI to no joy.
I have the unbranded international S2 on the Orange UK network. I believe the orange branded is the i9100G or is it the i9100P? Can't remember which. But mine is the bog standard Galaxy S2, no Orange branding or software to the phone originally.

Well, you also state you're using NEO Controller by Subsonic controllers? As I said above, the SixAxis controller app is stated to work best with OEM PS3 controllers - i.e. controllers actually made by Sony intended for the PS3.
So... if you were trying to use the SixAxis app with the NEO controller, that's probably why it didn't work.
Sorry I can't help further - I use SixAxis with an official PS3 controller, which works fine for my needs.
Maybe try "USB/BT Joystick Center 6" or "Bluez IME" from the Play Store?
