Sixaxis issues with the TF300... - Transformer TF300T Accessories

I happen to have a PS3 controller, so I'd like to try playing the good old MC3 on my TF300 with it. I have everything set up perfectly, the controller is detected by the sixaxis app (it says 'client connected: 1' when I power on the controller), and I have obviously selected sixaxis as default input method. However for some reason the controller doesn't do anything, not even in the UI. Any hints? I'd really love to try this thing out
One more thing, this is a GameStop controller, not a stock PS3 one, but honestly I think it should work just fine since it uses the same frequency of the standard one. On the box there's written it uses sixaxis technology and all that jazz...

DId you download the modern combat 3 profile that JGAF created and select that in the app? I had a problem with my first controller because it wasnt OEM, and I could not get the one controller light to stay on, so i think ur ok in that department.
And you've paired the controller using the bluetooth mac address on the TF300, using the sixaxis pair tool on ur PC correct ???

Yes, I used the PC tool and paired the controller properly. I've also loaded the mc3 profile, and the controller light stays on...here's why it's weird, everything should be working just fine, basically it looks like the keys on the controller aren't working, maybe I got a defective one??

As stated in the description of the Sixaxis app many generic controllers don't work with it, you should get an original one.

Hmm I think so, I guess I got fooled a little by that guy at the shop a few days back. He told me that this one was as good as the original one, with the same frequency and all that
I'll bring it back to the shop tomorrow, hopefully I'll be able to get at least a discount on an original one or something, they're so freaking expensive...

Just a little update: I grabbed an original controller from a friend and now everything works. Cool stuff. I'd just love to have a way to increase sensitivity a lil more (via game settings isn't enough for me), but that's nitpicking. Coming from PC gaming no controller can ever be sensitive enough for my needs I guess
Lesson learned: stay stay away from GameStop controllers.

You can change sensitivity directly on the profile. Which game do you want to change?

OK I made some minor changes to the delay time, the sensitivity was set to max though. Try it out and see if you see any changes. I can't try it since I don't have the game installed. I overwrote the profile in my drop box with the new one, so you can download it from my profile thread.

I think you just need to hold the PS button for about 5-10 seconds. (I think)
I can't get it to stop blinking when I'm playing though......
Didn't blink with my dualshock, but my old sixaxis I'm having no luck.

great, do let me know if you come across a similar issue... i would like to pair a few more devices [headset/speaker/mouse], but no luck :[
DO any of you guys know whether I have to purchase the dock to enable the PS3 controller to work?
i had it plugged in to the usb port on the dock when i initially paired mine, but now i simply turn on the bt and push the ps button and it pairs in a couple seconds... just try it and see if it works[?]
Has anyone used the phonjoy.com controllers?

just bought it, then dowloaded about 85% of the 1.7 gig download over wifi, had to leave so I turned on my mifi but my tab dropped the signal and now I have to start over once I get home again :/ the internet is a wonderful thing, it also simultaneously sucks in many ways.

No, it has very impressive draw distance (you can see things far away) but its not on par with the Tegra 3 games. If Gameloft doesnt start making their games using the unity engine they'll be left behind.....

If you are rooted and have a PS3 controller you can have touch emulation, check out my thread
Anybody notice the game is now totally screwy after the update yesterday? I just checked out the comments in Google Play and noticed this does not just apply our device. Not sure what Gameloft was thinking? If anybody has a fix for this that does not lose your progress in the game, please share.

Thanks, just downloaded it, let's see how it works....
I tried it again and it's still low frame rate on my tf300t with stock JB rooted.
All of the menus have been fixed, back to how it was before. Seems a bit smoother, but no huge difference.

WTH.... another update this morning?!.... no, let me reprase that: another update that asks me to download 1.7 GB of data this morning?! What the heck is up with Gameloft? First off this game is barely playable on a Tegra 3 tablet, and then their ridiculous updates are serious bandwidth killers.
The game was downloading on the first install page every time I opened it! Works almost flawlessly in my gs3, so it's definitely a device specific issue. I am also getting frustrated eating up my data allowance on this.
Edit: I don't see any update today??

Looks like another update today. I am hesitant to do this one as it works okay now. If anyone loads this update, please let me know if there is significant improvement. Thanks.

Well I downloaded the sixaxis comparability app and it said my phone will work with a PS3 controller. My main worry is will some $20 ebay offbrand controller work?
Its both bluetooth and it uses the regular PS3 drivers for compatibility with the PS3 so I dont really see why not I just dont want to drop money on something that wont work.

You'd be better off spending the extra $30 and buy a legit ps3 controller. If it doesn't work, then return it. You can get a used one from gamestop for like $35 or something.
Droidmote an app in the market if you have an old phone (Android) you can use that a controller and the Dev has tons of videos on how to make it work for any game I use my note as controller for my Acer a500 work like a charm plus it only 2 bucks

Just for the score I tried a fake controller from Amazon and it did not work, original Sony worked fine. Wish the games worked in analog with the analog sticks though. I only played Grand theft Auto and it wasn't that great. I understand ICS is supposed to be the key to being able to fully implement analog.
Okay so I went to game stop and asked them if I could test a controller and the six axis app said no device found. I tried a few things and I could not get it to work. I'm highly skeptical now.
I'm on CM9 but that should make no difference.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
The Sixaxis work on the Galaxy Note so you must be doing something wrong. Did you install The Sixaxis Pair Tool on your PC and connect your controller to change the Bluetooth address? You cannot just turn them on and pair them you need to change the address from your PC. Here is a video tutorial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTbc2Se5S3A&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Mine works and I am on CM9. I have 3 PS3 controllers paired.

No no no no no no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You MUST change the Bluetooth address on the ps3 controller using your COMPUTER. Otherwise it will search for its last paired ps3
OR just get micro USB cable to mini USB cable and CONNECT!

Do any Bluetooth controllers work?

I recently found out that wiimotes unfortunately don't work with galaxy players, because of samsung's proprietary Bluetooth stack (I hate how Samsung messes up the best features of android!). Anyway, I was wondering if anyone has better success with any other game controllers, particularly ps3 controllers? Or are our players fully incompatible with any game controller?

I have tried the ps3 controller and it works fine just download the sixaxis controller app from the market and the pair tool from their website http://www.dancingpixelstudios.com/sixaxiscontroller/tool.html
Run the app, look and the little number on the bottom after you push start then copy them down
go to your computer run the pair tool and copy the number from your phone to there and click update
ps3 controller should now be able to connect to your galaxy player
Great! Do you have to use the PC every time you want to use your controller with your galaxy player, or is it a one time step?

Well, the app was just updated to fix the error, so problem solved! One thing I am not certain about is this; I have read that if you buy a brand new ps3 controller, it will need to be paired to a ps3 before you can use it with this app. Now, I don't have a ps3, but could I buy a used ps3 controller that has already been paired to someone's ps3 and would that work?

I doubt it I see no reason that it needs to be paired with the ps3 when you connect a control to a ps3 it only gets the bluetooth address so you can use it with the console.
And beside you'll be changing that anyways with your computer. I doubt you'll need a ps3. I and if I'm wrong return the controller back.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Maybe a new remote has to be activated by a ps3 console or something though, who knows. I'll probably buy a used one anyway, since new ones cost a crazy amount of money, and it sounds like few third-party remotes work.

Not that I know of, most you could do is use a bluetooth or USB gamepad.
Is also possible to bind touch actions on keyboard dock if You have it.
Are you talking about Moga?
Yeah, it would be nice for phone, for me tablet is to big and heavy for that. I'm using Rumblepad 2 with my tab now and it's ok.
