prime +controllers little support please? - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

Hey guys, I am considering 2 buy a new controller for my prime. i currently have a PC wireless xbox 360 controller, for this to work on the prime i need 2 use the usb dongle given 2 me when i purchased the controller. also Something is wrong with the probably my tabs understanding of this controller as when i use it in gta or whatever it thinks that the joystick is looking upwards(this does not happen on my desktop). Was wondering if any1 else had that problem.
Also reasons for considering changing is that I do not understand how I can map keys on my controller. there is only 1 app available for this(for the xbox 360 controller) called joy something if im not mistaken. If any1 knows of a tutorial of this I would be great full if you share it with me.
What controller does the trick for you on android devices(any links to it?)
thanx in advance guys
PS(has any1 got to play asphalt 7 with a controller? love racing games)

i'm using a ps3 controller, works perfectly with all supported games .
With the sixaxis app, you also can configure mappings for non-controllergames like Modern Combat 3

i tried the ps3 controller(snatched it off a friend but i was annoyed that I had to use the stupid wire:/) anything else working with sixaxis but not being a ps3 controller(its also expensive to buy 1:/)

You dont need to use the wire if you pair your controller with your tablet.

Yes u even can connect a ps3 controller to your Tablet without using the usb port on the dock. But you need the mac adress of the controller.
Here is a "How to" connect Ps3 controller without usb via bluetooth:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1503887
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!

What is NOT interesting about it?
I would love to use a sixaxis (or any other controller) for n64 emulators, snes emulators, psx emulators and so on. using the touchscreen as controller is ruining the experience and potential of emulators.
BTW, if you dont have anything constructive or informative to write in these forums, stfu.

I got to borrow my friends PS3 controller:
The buttons wont hold in snes emulator, like if you run forward pressing |> and the press X to jump at the same time, I'll have to repress again after the jump |> to keep running in supermario It may be the emulator that does not support "multitouch" so I'll report back tomorrow when I'll buy my own PS3 controller.
Anyone know if the XBOX 360 controller will work w/USB host adapter?

No I mean wouldnt it be better to read and learn and gain more knowledge that will be helpful to your future?
I have read, learned, and gained knowledge. And I can honestly say that using a ps3 controller for emulators running on my tab is going to be ****ing awesome for my future!
Shouldn't you be working on that taskbar color?

Alright, sent and e-mail and got a reply. A bug in the program. Updated and now can connect with PS3 controller. Everything is working smoothly, running splendidly on n64oid 2.1.

I appreciate that information
What ROM's have you tried that is working smooth?
I've tried Super Mario 64, Wave Race 64, Golden Eye and Mario Kart 64.
They all run without hickups or any lag!
Pilot Wings 64 on the other hand gives me black polygons and crackling audio noises.
Should there be a separate thread for Emulator ROM's maybe?
Hey,
I'm having trouble pairing my controller with my Tab,
I installed the Sixaxis Pair Tool and i entered the Bluetooth Mac Address of my Tab (I didn't find it in the actual app, when i pressed Start, on the Tab but i had to enter Android Settings and About.
Anyway, under Current Master it shows the Bluetooth Mac Address of my Tab, i then unplugged the controller, pressed the PS button, and pressed Start in the App on the Tab and it says Connection Initiated.... and thats it, the controller is blinking but it doesn't seem to wanna connect to the Tab
Any help would be appreciated
P.S. I followed the instructions on http://www.dancingpixelstudios.com/sixaxiscontroller/instructions.html
Fixed it with a restart of my Tab, apparently my tab wasn't asking for root until i rebooted,
Great app by the way
My controller is being recognized by the N64oid app when i have to configure the inputs. When I go to play a game though, it won't recognize the controller.
Best money spent on my TAB so far Working perfectly with Snes9x EX.
i followed everything and the app says connection established however, my controller doesn't stop blinking any thoughts? should I just assume that this app doesn't work with samsung devices at all?

I had a problem with mine not registering input even after following the setup and my lights saying it was connected as controller 1. I deleted the sixaxis compatibility checker and then rebooted, started the connection, hit the ps button, and selected sixaxis controller as input and it worked flawlessly. If you're 100% positive you're doing everything word for word and changed the sixaxis' bluetooth address to match your tab's then try a reboot and see if it fixes it.
So the controller finally works. When you enable IME in N64oid the controller will start working. I don't know if anyone else noticed, but does the software support full analog control? I can't get Mario to stop running at full speed even thought i am pushing the stick only a little .
If you are having trouble getting the controller started do this....
Download and SixAxisPairTool on your pc.
Plug the controller into your pc with the usb cable that came with the ps3.
Hit the power button on the controller. A set of numbers will show on top with a empty box below.
On the tablet, run SixAxis Controller. There will be a bluetooth address at the bottom of the screen. Copy these numbers/letters into the sixaxispairtool on your pc.
Unplug the controller, hit start on the controller app on the tablet and hit the power button on the controller. Hit configure input settings and switch to ps3 controller.
You should be all set to go! Good Luck!
The sixaxis works great with every emulator I have tried it with so far. Are there any non-emulator apps that anyone has got working? Any android games that are not emulators? If there are some, then maybe we need to get a list going of what apps work with the sixaxis controller and which ones do not.
I am also all in favor of getting a list of what rom's work for each system.
I have tested mario kart and 007 for N64 and they both work. I have also tested nba jam tournament edition for snes and that works. I am really bummed because cruisn usa will not work in the n64 emulator. The screen is off to the left. Has anyone else tried that one? I love playing cruisn usa.

In N64oid or whichever emulator you are running, go to settings, other settings, and then tick the box for "Use input method"
I'm having the same issue as amarp84
pairing is fine, bluetooth address is fine, connection is established no worries and it says that there is a client connected, but the lights won't stop blinking and sync to a controller port
i'm on 10.1v ... anyone else got it working on the tab so i know if it's just me?
I works great on my tab 10.1.
Anyone get keys to map with N64oid? I cant get multiple joysticks, they all map as DPAD down etc so i cant use seperate joysticks

N64 Controller

Hi folks, I have been able to get my ps3 controller and wiimotes to hook up to my transformer and dock to play games on emulators with no issues. Unfortunately, neither of these controllers work well on the n64 games. I bought an USB N64 controller off amazon this week and received it today, but it won't work correctly. http://www.amazon.com/Hyperkin-Cont...ZDPE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1327084707&sr=8-1 - this is the controller I got. It lights up, and when programming the keymapping, it registers that there was a key pushed, but the buttons don't work. I went through and did the keymapping three times, but once finished and you try to push start at the beginning of a game, nothing happens. Are there drivers we can install on android, or is this controller just simply not compatible with android? Anyone have any ideas on this?
Try the USB Joystick app on the Market

ps3 controller works fine. Just map ps3 keys in n64oid and you are set. I am in the middle of kirby 64 right now. The c controls+z was tricky but i got it. You might need to go to sixaxis and change the keys for some of the buttons. No matter what you assign the button to it will be different when you map it in n64oid. Good luck
It depends on the emulator you are using i know that n64oid will only work for sixaxis controllers, but mupen64 will be your best bet, I just plug in an xbox 360 controller into my dock and it works perfectly using mupen as an emulator.:laugh:
Try mupen64
I used my original N64 controller and a n64 to usb conveyer with the muper64 emulator. Add it weren't a solid connection it kept starting/stopping but did work and could map buttons, even load a n64 profile.
I use a Logitech copy of an Xbox controller to play Dark Forces in AnDOSbox. Works great. Plugs into my dock and is recognized right away.

[Q] 360 controller not working on prime...

so...i read on a bunch of forums that you can just plug and play a 360 controller to the prime's dock via usb to play games
i have tried with shadowgun thd and snesoid....a game and an emulator that i have seen work in other threads and neither acknowledge the controller
snesoid does acknowledge the controller when i try to map the keys and shadowgun just doesn't do anything...
so is there an app i need to make it so that the prime uses the controller? i'd love to get this going..
thanks!
Try out USB/BT joystick center in app store. I've seen others say it works great for mapping controls properly.
From my understanding you can only used the wired xbox controllers. You cannot use the plug and charge remotes.
Thanks...that's what I was using (plug and charge)...I'll look for the guides for using the controller wirelessly

You can use wireless controllers if you have the wireless receiver for PC/Windows. Plug that into the Prime and it detects wireless 360 controllers fine. Used it on mine with no problems.

[Q] help with Bluetooth ps3 controler?

Hello, I'm wondering what I need to do to get my prime to connect w/ a ps3 controller via Bluetooth? Don't have the dock, but I want to connect via HDMI & use the ps3 controllers for my kid to play gta3 and similar games
I'm not rooted, but I'm comfortable rooting & unlocking boot loaders if necessary.If anyone has any advice, links, or apps to help me with this I'd appreciate it. I'm not a gamer but my kids are asking me to figure this out. I've checked a couple of vids on YouTube,but it seems most are using the USB port on the dock. I really don't have any other use for a dock, so if there's a way to do this without it, then I'll save some cash. Thanks all....
I recommend that you root and then use the Sixaxis controller app.
Sixaxis Controller App
The best thing about that is that you can make touch profiles so you can play all games with a gamepad.
The app works really good and there are guides on the devs homepage. Really easy to get it to work.
And have you used the search function? Did just a quick search on PS3 and look what i got
Asus Transformer Prime + PS3 Controller wirelessly without bluetooth enabled
Sony Branded PS3 Controller works wirelessly without root!
Is it possible to pair PS3 controller with no root and no USB/dock?

Sixaxis Update: Native Android Gamepad Support (over Bluetooth)!!!!

[Q] PS3 controller + USB/BT Joystick Center 6

Hi, i got and Galaxy S3 with no root.
I bought an fake PS3 controller that works directly with an OTG cable. It work very well and I can directly navigate and use it in games.
But with some games, i need to remap the controller to be able to play (for example the analog sticks). I downloaded USB/BT Joystick Center 6, but it dosent find the controller when i tap "search". I wonder if I need somehow disable the native support for the PS3 controller so the USB/BT app will recognize it? If so, how can i do that?

The only real games you can play will be native ones and emulators. Remapping the keys isn't going to work unless its an official ps3 controller and your using the six axis app. Then create some touch profiles.
USB joy center is best used for Xbox 360 controllers. I've never had to use anything else with my ps3 controllers besides six axis app.
Also did you buy the app? (I'm not accusing you either) the cracked version won't work properly.
