Hey all,
I have an Asus TF300t running a CM10 nightly and Logitech Gamepad F310. The Logitech Gamepads are supposed to work, but I am having issues with mine. Games like Shadowgun and Deadtrigger detect the controller but my character spins around in a circle. And when I go to customize the controls within the game when i select an action to set to a key it automatically puts in joystick 3+ or something like that. my roommate has the same controller and his does the same thing on my tablet. Is it a bad driver or is it not supposed to work to begin with or am I doing something wrong?
EDIT 10/22/12: I flashed Hydro 4.1 JB using the guide and now my controller seems to work fine
I have the exact same problem with a Xbox360 wireless controller (using a non-official PC-USB adapter)
Shucks. Are you running CM10 as well or stock?
Plain stock JB, latest Spanish version.

Oh... the tablet is not mine and I want to keep official versions, so it looks I won't be able to play any game with my 360 controller by now :crying:
Anyway, if that's a common problem, I wonder why people ain't complaning more in the forums.
Ok, i have read many post and know that i am able to play some games using xbox controller. So do i just plug the controller to the usb dock and use or i need to install some app or roms to enable it?
I am rooted but in stock.

You have just to plug it by USB, and it should work in any game with controller support. You can also use it to navigate trough the desktop and launch apps.
I have TF300T and when it was on ICS, it worked with PS3 controller (via USB) flawlessly, but now with JB, it doesn't work whatsoever. Anyone else having this issue?
You tried Sixaxis controller app?
If u already use it go to prefrence -> Gamepad Settings -> Check Enable Gamepad

Swyped on my Galaxy Nexus running AOKP with Franco Kernel

I've been searching the internet for a while now and I couldn't find any helpful information on controllers that definitely work with a retail Galaxy Tab 10.1 using the host USB adapter.
All I could find was information on Xooms, Transformers or Google I/O Tabs.
Wii controllers seem to be a popular choice since there is an app available for them but other than that it's hard to find any helpful facts.
I'd like to find something that at least has the capabilities of a Wii Classic controller but without it having to be connected to a Wiimote controller for when I play some ROMs. So far I couldn't find an available version that does not need to be connected to a Wiimote over here in Germany.
I don't care if it's wireless or connected directly through an USB cable.
Is there anyone here who has found a controller that works with their 10.1 that is commonly available?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I can confirm that my Logitech Dual Action USB Gamepad works perfectly on the Tab using the USB adapter. Model Number is G-UF13A. Hope this helps.
I just received my controller yesterday and it works alright in snes9x ex. It's the icontrolpad. I got it off of ebay. The application that allows it to work is in the market. It's called Bluez IME. It allows the use of four different bluetooth controllers but of the four I thought that one looks the best.
The other three that work using that program are:
Zeemote JS1
MSI Chainpus BGP100
Phonejoy
And here is a link to the app

If you have any other questions just let me know
has anyone gotten a ps3 controller to work?
I've tried several times but to no avail. even with pershoot's kernel and loading the hid-sony.ko module. I was hoping the TW update would fix this but i kind of doubt it. if you get it to work let me know lol

I have gotten the ps3 controller to work with pershoots kernel. The controller has to be charged completely before connecting to the tab.
Thank you so much guys! The Logitech Dual Action USB controller looks like a good choice. I hope they still have one in stock on Amazon.de when I come back from Ibiza.
As for the Bluetooth controller:
I can't seem to find one that's available on this side of the big pond.
I'd love to hear more reports on working controllers. Maybe we could start a list. That would help a lot of people.

Yup. Bet the guy above would have seen overcurrent trips in the dmesg, if he'd looked at the dmesg.
Uncharged controller = current trip.
Charged controller = works with pershoot's kernels and the hid-sony.ko module
GO to this link and buy it. It works beautifully with the Tab.

I did get the current trip message the first time so I charged it up fully and it gave me no current trip message but still got nothing. I never figured out what I was doing wrong. After installing Pershoot's kernel I pushed hid-sony.ko into modules using root explorer, ran insmod /data/local/modules/hid-sony.ko in terminal and it gave me no error messages so I hooked up my controller and nothing happened. Are there any other steps involved? Do I have to hit the PS button? Once it's connected should I be able to navigate through my apps and screens straight out the gates?
Sixaxis controller
Sixaxis controller from the android market works great if you have a ps3 controller. Requires root before you can use it.
Yup the Sixaxis App works like charm on my P7500. I hope there will be more Android Games in future that support game controllers.
Which games don't? I just ordered the Sixaxis off ebay and am hoping to replace the Wiimote I have been using for mario and such.
I rooted my Tab 10.1 just for this and the Tablet recognizes the PS3 controller but I can't seem to get it to work with my GBA or N64 Emulators. When I map the buttons in the Emulator it recognizes the buttons I press but it doesn't translate to the games itself. Any useful hints? Did I miss something?
/Edit:
The game Cordy recognizes the controller but the screen goes black after a while as if I'm not pressing any buttons. Do I have to set the screen timeout to never when I use a controller?
/Edit 2:
Snes9x seems to work perfectly with the PS3 controller. I wonder why the emulators from Yong Zhang don't work with this setup.
/Edit 3:
Figured it out. Apparently you have to enable the option "Enable Input Method" (Game Pad / Bluetooth Controller) so that the controller actually works. Tried SNESoid, NESoid and N64oid and they all worked.

Oh yeah, now I remember that - I had to hit the PS button before it would do anything.
hey, i'm new here, but i felt the need to necro this thread and add a controller i found working quite well to my own surprise.
i used the official usb adapter and plugged in my Saitek cyborg gamepad
and it works flawlessy on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 (3.1) with my emulators (tried nesdroid and snesdroid).
i cant post links but google 'Saitek Cyborg Rumble Gamepad'
it's the pc version, USB, black/greyish colors
myself tried finding a good controller but they seem to be expensive or hard to find and i didnt want to root my device just because of that so maybe this helps someone trying to get a nice controller with lots of buttons for a fair price.
Sixaxis
Sixaxis works on rooted GTab's?!? Score!
Which game controller do you recommend? I'm mainly looking to use it on my tab for emulators and whatever android games are compatible with a controller.
I was looking at a sixaxis just because it looks like it can connect wirelessly with the app but I'd be willing to buy a USB connector and flash a kernel to make a controller compatible. Also I don't know if the dual shock 3 controller works with the sixaxis app. (I'm not sure if that's an entirely different thing)
I guess I'm mainly wondering which controller is most compatible, meaning full joy stick control and things like that.
Thanks if you can help me out!
I'm currently using my PS3 controller with the new Sixaxis App from the store. All you need is Root access and to pair your PS3 controller with a PC to tell it what your tablets Bluetooth MAC address is and it should work. I've been using it ever since with all my emulators and it works like it's supposed to.
There is also an app from the same dev to test if the controller works with your device but if its a GT 10.1 and a regular PS3 controller there shouldn't be an issue.
Does anyone have any other suggestions?
If not I'm probably going to grab a sixaxis but I want to be sure I'm getting the best since I'm not tied down to a controller for a console I already own.
Thanks
There is already another Q & A thread started by me from a while ago where some people listed a few alternatives. Just search the Q & A forum or check the first few pages and you will find the thread. Since I already own a PS3 and the other controllers aren't that available in my country it was an easy choice for me. Hope that helps.
hey. Ive been trying to sync a wiimote to my galaxy s2 but I cant do it. I've root my phone and I saw an old post about a guy who achieved that. (galaxy s2 wiimote gaming holder)
so.. until today is any way to connect a wiimote to galaxys2? I would like to play n64 emu with it. thanks
Why not just user a ps2 sixaxis joypad? I'm not sure the wii works yet, at least, the best i know

You meant ps3, right? I don't know of a ps2 sixaxis controller. I don't think one exists.

See here. That guy had some luck, but I can't personally vouch for any of his information since personally I use SixAxis with my ps3 controller.

Hi
I'm the "lucky guy" here ;p
I can confirm that I play with my wiimotes on my SGS2 . But all Roms does not work with wiimotes:
Ginberbread roms made by Samsung (= stock Rom) => wiimote sync doesn't work
Gingerbread Roms made by Miui (= Custom Rom) => Wiimote sync works (but the"MHL cable" [to play with your GS2 on your HD TV] does not work).
ICS Roms made by samsung => Wiimote sync doesn't work (because it asks for a pairing code) but MHL works
ICS Roms made by MIUI (or Cyanogen 9) => Wiimote sync doesn't work (it asks for a pairing code too) + MHL does not works
But... ICS Leaked Roms by samsung => Wiimote sync works and MHL works (so you can play N64 emulator on your TV ).
If you don't trust me, or if you don't understand me (bad english :s), you can PM me if you want
PS: For explanations on "MHL" : see here

Hi, anyone trying to play Shadowguneadzone with Sixaxis (PS3 controller, 4.1.2 rooted stock)? I play a lot with this combo on Nexus 7 (works great), but when I tried today (bought HDMI dongle - trying to play on TV), gamepad will disconnect as soon as I start game in deadzone (e.g. select deathmatch).
When I switch back to sixaxis and pair the gamepad again, the game restarts.
EDIT: My bad, got it working (I didn't have Sixaxis IME selected). And I'm too lame to know how to delete the thread.

I am not finding any possible way to connect a PS3 controller with my Rezound due to the bluetooth packet build of the stock ICS. I just recently rooted. I see everywhere other devices that are able to pair with the controller. Any thoughts or evidence that this will work on the Rezound with custom roms? Using Amon ra recovery. Before I flash any roms, this is a big feature that I am looking for as I do a lot of gaming. Thanks for any direction.
I just saw a thread about this last week I think. Something about an app called sixaxis or something like that.
Pretty sure if you search "controller" in this forum you'll find it.

The Sixaxis app will not work with the Rezound. The Rezound does not support otg as it does not have usb host control support. It will not recognize any usb device. I read it's mainly due to Sense. Has to be a custom rom I guess that the builder enabled this option. Possibility of AOSP roms might work, not sure.

Blueputdroid enables you to control your ps3, and pc, etc with your phone. I want to play games on my phone with a ps3 controller since I have one already. I don't want to go buy a special controller just to use on my phone.

Install cm10.1 JB and it will enable you to use six axis controller.
