What's the best bluetooth controller for android? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was considering getting a moga since it has a mount, but the lack of a d-pad kinda turns me off from it

[Q] Attachable Gamepad

I'm looking for an attachable gamepad, something like this: Game Gripper or this: iControlPad (but much less $$$$, $119, SERIOUSLY!!?) and NOT this (I want to use the phone in landscape orientation).
I have a Samsung Vibrant, so no keyboard.
I really just want something with a Dpad and/or joystick and a few buttons that will physically attach to the phone so I can hold the gamepad and phone as one unit.
I've searched, but haven't found what I'm looking for, any suggestions?

Logitech F710 controller?

I know that Logitech F710 controller works with the Prime - but how about original Transformer? Does it work? I'd like to buy it because my next game will use controllers but would like to know if it works. Can you map all the keys however you like? Does every function work?
I considered the chance good enough to consider buying that controller, before deciding I'm to cheap. What works is likely to very by application, most are designed without hardware controls in mind. The Xperia Play stuff might be worth looking at, to see if it says anything about using controllers.

Well, It's for writing games, not playing them, so I will be fine I suppose. I only wonder if it works on Transformer, but probably yes - it apparently works on all the other Tegra2 tablets.
OK. I bought some cheap controller similar to F710 - works fine in Sonic, partially in Sega emulator and Dizzy. Nothing less than I expected, now I'm looking for application to configure it and reading API how to add controller compatibility to my games.

Bluetooth KB + trackpad?

Anyone tried and know where to source a bluetooth keyboard with integrated trackpad to be used with the JetStream? Even better if included in a case, but willing to carry separately if it works in the end.
2 years ago I bought a Logitech Bluetooth keyboard with a built-in 2button trackpad combo for about $70 CDN with the exchange.
I originally bought it for my ps3 bit I think I'll be using it more for my new Jetstream I just won thru rogers (boo yah).
I know it works well with HTC products (i use it on my raider all the time) so I can't see it losing any functionality when using it on the tab.
Hope this helps!

Thanks. The Adesso isn't cheap while looking good.
I'm trying to find the Asus keyboard to try it, it looked good as well.
Otherwise, I may elect to just go with a logitec + mini BT mouse, or this Adesso keyboard.

thanks for the information

Mogo controller?

I want to play some games on my Shield tablet but I can't justify the $60 for the Shield controller. Will the regular mogo controller,not the pro, work for all games. It's only $15 and I can't seem to find out what it will work on. Everything I can find is about the pro model.

I'd like to expand on this question a tad..
will the gamepad mapper work with the moga? ( i,e map screen touch buttons to controller buttons?)

I want to say it did other than the select button and L2 and R2 soo sort of? The controller though had a weird input lag with the tablet, some games were barely playable because of it. The Shield controller on the other hand works amazingly well, I ended up buying one even though I have a Moga Pro after using the tablet for a week with the Moga Pro.
I use the moga power controller it works great, but would love to see an Xbox one controller working

I am using an iPega 997 (Link: http://www.ebay.de/itm/251618052313?clk_rvr_id=728395339564 Model PG-9023)
the original one and an amazon fire controller. Each of them work well.
Best to get at least a moga pro because it has triggers and hid mode. A moga pocket is cheap for a reason. It will not be usuable without root as well since it doesn't support hid directly
I didn't fully read the post when I commented before, I have the Pro... Like the guy above me said do Not get the pocket, get the Pro or either of the PowerA ones if you get a moga. Your best bet for an actual good gaming experience though is saving up and getting the Nvidia one.
Get the nvidia one, totally worth the price.
And get the ipega 9023 for when you go in the bus or car or train.

nvidia rules...
I have the official controller but have a moga pro as well. If you find something doesn't working with it you still can use Tincore Keymapper from playstore.
The official controller is worth it. It has become my favorite controller, period. If you're set on a moga though get any of them except the pocket. I had it for a little bit and the next time I got money I bought the hero power. I used it for quite a while and probably still would if I hadn't gotten a shield controller. After having the hero power for a while I would probably buy one of the moga pros instead, the L2 and R2 buttons on the hero power suck, the rest is pretty good though.

Will tincore work with Terarria and Mine craft? I got the moga pro power but returned it after it only worked for 3 of my games...
Using the Moga Pro, every single game I have tried thus far, including Portal, Half Life 2, and the GRID, works just fine with the Moga Pro. The Gamepad Mapper also works.
I'm as happy as I would be with a shield controller, except I can still use my Moga on my phone.

[UPDATE 07-01-15] Sony Game Control Mount GCM10 Question - PS3 Controller compatible?

Okay so I acted a little derp and posted a new highly similar thread in the wrong section even, so I'll make this the main thread since the other one was closed (I'd still like to have people comment on this thread of course, with questions for me to answer)
Anyway,
A while ago I asked a question here on XDA regarding the GCM10 Game Control Mount and its compatibility with a PS3 controller. I didn't get that many detailed answers and I figured more people would be interested to know whether the GCM10 works with the PS3 controller. I used my Xperia Z1 instead of a Z3 as advertised but this obviously shouldn't make a difference. Since I won this from the Xperiablog community, I figured I should do the community a favour in return by doing this.
As you can see here, the GCM10 doesn't quite fit the PS3 controller - it almost closes, but you'll have to use a rubber band or come up with another creative idea to close it properly. Before I received this, I used to hold the Xperia phone and controller in place with only one bent wire which was very fragile. I used it in the bus once or twice, but really wouldn't have recommended this. Now this GCM10 already seems much better since it steadily holds the phone in place with the suction cup, which was the main issue with my previous wire solution.
The downside is that the GCM10's metal wire in the middle (which is actually covered in rubber - a very nice detail indeed) is slightly in the way of the square button, and you cannot completely rotate the analog sticks to the sides where the wires are. With rubber bands the controller is pretty much usable and pretty stable as well, but the wires make this experience all but perfect. If you're not careful, one wire might even press and hold the square button on the controller, which is not something you'll want. Also for games that do absolutely need the analog joysticks to move all the way around as should be able, you may not find this to be working well. Although GTA: SA for Android does allow for both walking and running movement, which no notable difference in whether you push the stick down until it hits the wire and until it reaches the side where it's supposed to end. I do not recommend buying the GCM10 if you only have a PS3 controller in conclusion, unless you have money to spare. There must be better options out there for a PS3 controller. I could consider upgrading to a PS4 controller but this is kind of a waste of money as I don't actually own a PlayStation. But if you do, then this GCM10 really is a nice addition if you like to play mobile games. Especially for emulating games it would be amazing!
Im also curious, since i dont have a ps4 controller.
Does not fit the DS3.... It's made for DS4 ONLY.
