If I am not wrong there is nothing at the moment that supports the 360 controller wireless, just the PS3 controller works with e.g. Sixaxis

Is there anyone knows how to do that ?

I've bought a smart Hub and am intending on using my wireless receiver with my S3 when it gets back from being repaired.
I've seen it on this video so assumed it would work but your making me doubt it now. Ill do some more digging.

Thank you all again.

Another little question.
Is there anything for xbox 360 controller like "Gameklip" ? Thanks again.

Just a note. CM10.1 just received wireless 360 controller support

[Q] xbox 360 controller on g tablet is possible?

Is possible to use Xbox 360 controller for emulators?
Unfortunately the 360 controllers are RF and not bluetooth. The PS3 controllers would be closer to being an option.
what about a wired USB 360 controller?
It's possible. Android would have to accept the usb as an input option. I dont know if anyone has used a usb keyboard. if so then the buttons on the controller would just have to be remapped as keyboard presses. The analog sticks would probably take some work i'd imagine.

I have a wired USB 360 controller too.
I searched and found that someone have made it usable on Elocity tablet
We need kernel, rom to run it, hope that will possible soon
The real question is can we get two 360 controllers to work at the same time. Then we can hook the g tab up HDMI to a tv and run a snes emu. Classic gaming with a friend!

Nothing. I doubt we will ever get Honeycomb 3.0 Let alone 3.1
That would be so excellent though! Apparently you can use a hub and do two controllers at once for emulator gaming with a friend on your HDTV (HDMI out). Pretty cool.
Seems impossible? but....
I have read these forums front to back and can't find any information on how this guy did this. I would really like to get this set up on my tablet. If anyone could shed some light on this I think it would be helpful to the whole community.

wired game controllers (xbox, Ps3) - Possible?

Hi,
Coming from an Xperia play i didn't need this!
However having had a Asus transformer, i used to use an xbox controller to play games.
1. Is this possible at all on a S3?
2. Is this possible with this adapter? http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/mobile-fun-connection-kit-for-samsung-galaxy-s3-p35462.htm
3. With the adapter can we still use hdmi output?
What im hope to achieve is gaming using a controller on my tv all through my S3.
Would be awesome for portable Emulation.
Cheers

No it works, I have a 360 cable controller and it works with PC. U just need to install drivers. I had been playing Batman AA on pc using 360 controller.

most usb controllers should work as long as USB HID drivers work correctly. the issue would be button assigning. now that you've mentioned this ill give it a try with my old gamepad.

I am currently planning to purchase a lapdock for my atrix this Aug 7 when I will hopefully get enough birthday money for this (just can't spend outside of budget right now). I am trying to find out whether it is possible to use an usb based controller for emulators. The reason why I want the USB based one is to save on cost and be able to use the same controller on my bluetooth-less laptop for the PS2 emulations.
to clarify, I do NOT have any usb controller right now so I am looking for two things,
Do usb controller works with lapdock?
if so, which controller comes recommended?
Bonus point if the controller is tiny and have all of the controls that a playstation controller have.
P.S.
If this is just impossible, I'll just go with the bluetooth Nyko Playpad,

PS2 Emulation? On an Atrix with lapdock?

Deafcyclist said:
no, PS2 emulation on my Toshiba Laptop. PS1 emulation on my atrix/lapdock. This is why I want a controller that I can switch between the two anytime I need to. Unfortunately, my toshiba laptop do not have bluetooth :crying:
If PS2 emulation on an atrix ever come to pass, I would love it! but I honestly doubt it. In the meantime, I want to be able to play basically everything from Playstation 1 and earlier games.

Wow, this is kind of eerie, and lucky for you at the same time. I just recently decided to buy a PS3 controller for me to use for FPSE on my Atrix using Sixaxis Controller app. It works perfectly, and it's connected using bluetooth. I use the PS3 controller even when my Atrix is mounted on my Lapdock, still using Sixaxis Controller. So, to answer your question, Get a PS3 controller, 'cause it'll work on your Atrix while using Lapdock. As a bonus, you can charge the PS3 controller via USB on the lapdock (which is what I do.) The best part is, it also works perfectly on a Windows PC using the DS3 tool. I use the same PS3 controller to play PS2 games on my PC. I can even help you out in setting it up if you go through with it. Hope this helps. And sorry if what I said is a little confusing. I just got excited 'cause I was wondering the same thing as you, just a few weeks back.

my logitech gamepad did not work, no sign of it on android, but i only tested it with hd dock and neutrino rom. im not on blur for now but maybe on the weekend ill test it with blur.
for those who have ps3 controller, is it OEM or third party? i was thinking of getting one but i have a wii and got classic pro which works great on n64oid, much better joystick sensitivity than wii64 with gamecube controller.

The PS3 controller connects to your phone via bluetooth. It's more convenient in my opinion, compared to hooking it up to your lapdock's USB port. I know it's not exactly what you're looking for, but i think it's a better solution. Your thoughts?

For the PS3 controller, it has to be a Genuine Sony Dualshock 3 or Sixaxis. Otherwise, you'll have a problem connecting it to Sixaxis controller, the app used to pair the controller to your phone. I haven't tried using a Wii controller, or any other controller for that matter. I decided to try the PS3 controller, and it works excellently for me.
I know the wiimote works just fine, i even have the gamepad connected with it, and use it for my snes games and whatnot. look up Wii Controller IME by Ryan Frawley in the store. =]

@abetsi
that was my concern all along, not being compatible with sixaxis. ill just wait until i really want one. not very much of a cellphone gamer. i have dslite and 3ds.
@Deafcyclist
it is possible ics has even more drivers, so i might test it later. as i recall to pair ps3 controller with sixaxis a PC is required, its through usb. i suppose it can be used like you want it.
edit: testing new jellybean alpha and my logitech gamepad works, both joystick and dpad. i have not tested any game yet but its good news native usb gamepad support.
Deafcyclist said:
I am okay with connecting to the atrix/lapdock with bluetooth, my main concern is whether I can connect a PS3 controller directly to my TOSHIBA LAPTOP (not the lapdock) via usb. I know that a PS3 controller have a mini-USB port for charging, but I'm not sure if this can be used to get the PS3 to connect via USB. If this is the case, then this controller may be perfect for me in pretty much every way except for it's size (I wanted some really tiny controller, heh)
el_venga, I wonder if CM9 have better USB support in general? I'm using Jokersax's CM9.

I'm pretty sure it'll connect to your laptop. I'm using mine on my MacBook Pro running Windows 7 via USB to play PS2 games and such. As long as you have the correct programs to run it, I'm confident that it'll work.

[Q] PS3 or Xbox controller with Galaxy S3

Hey guys, I'm new here!
Just wondering if anyone has had much experience using their ps3 or xbox 360 controller with their device to play games? I've been looking into it but I haven't tried it yet. I think it would be great to be able to use them for things like emulators because for example SNES emulators are a bit dodgy to play with touch controls.
I know there's a sixaxis controller app to connect your ps3 controller and I heard that you can use a micro USB to female usb 2.0 to use your wired xbox 360 controller. I also believe you can connect a wireless xbox 360 controller if you have a wireless adapter.
Any thoughts on this?
Hi mate.
I have for the USB adapter for the S3 where you directly plug your controller into your device.it works great and is instantly rcognised! I use the ps3 controller since its more portable.only issue is that the wire and movements may cause the phone to fall when your playing games so you will have to have a good stand. Also for most games, I've used GBA, nes, psx, n64 emulators and GTA Vice city you have to configure the controller which is a pain at first.
I also have used the sixth axis Bluetooth feature which is great as well.just have to get the controller IDs off the PC and configure them to the phones Bluetooth.if you connect the controllers to another device like their consoles or Bluetooth to a PC, the connection to the phone has to be done again on the PC which can be annoying. But If you have the USB phone adapter you can configure it straight away and use it wirelessly.
Only problem I have with this is that gaming can make the phone heat up so its beat to keep the case ventilated and in a cool area to avoid over heating.
But it works very well!

Hey, thank you for the information I have ordered a USB adapter to test out the xbox 360 controller which seems like the easiest option. I might get some sort of stand as well then because I can imagine it becoming annoying.. which leads me to think that although the ps3 controller seems to need a bit more messing around with, I like the idea of a wireless controller.
I was wondering about the over heating possibility although I've only really noticed the handset getting pretty hot whilst playing vice city.
Cannot wait to test this out!
Yep, as mentioned a USB On The Go cable works great with the S3. PS3 controller works just fine.. I think I remember having trouble with the 360 controller. And the sixaxis app does works great too
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk HD
Oh great, thank you that's good to know my PS3 is at university so I'll try that when I get back there in a couple weeks. As for the USB cable for the xbox controller, I didn't realise I needed an OTG cable (a normal one didn't work today haha) luckily they're cheap, it should arrive tomorrow
I use the sixaxis control app and my second ps3 controller.
You can wireless control your whole phone with your ps3 controller,like changing music and videos,scrolling trough the homescreen.
If you already have a second ps3 controller its pointless to buy a usb adapter since you can buy the app for one buck and have much more comfort.

Uhhh it seems fine in this section, don't think there was any need for you to comment to be honest!
i tried playing with a 360 controller and it wouldn't register the controller so, while it's a bit of a hassle to set up, you the PS3 controller is doable.

Did you use a OTG cable with your 360 controller? I used a normal micro usb - female 2.0 and that didn't register either but I heard the OTG cables work fine. I will try out both controls and post back what I think

That's because people don't care about the rules.
To use a ps3 controller via the cable it will work natively, to use the Xbox controller there is an app called USB BT joycenter which is available on the market.
There is also an app called sixaxis controller which will enable bluetooth for your phone and ps3 controller.
To play the games on your phone there is something called a Gameklip which is available in the accessories section of XDA in the sgs3 part.
I've bought one myself and it's really well made and works a charm.
If you are thinking of using two bluetooth pads and using the MHL cable to send the signal to a TV that is also possible but MHL on the S3 isn't great, the vast majority of people have an issue with the screen being set at a low refresh rate, or being stuck on 720p.
I myself have two LED 3D tvs, one LG which shows the picture in 1080p but at 30hz
And a panasonic viera which shows it in 1080i @ 60hz, the viera is much quicker and the input delay isn't as noticeable.
If you go down the bluetooth ps3 controller route then you will want to check out the themes and apps section to get profiles for the most popular games for the six axis app.
Hope this helps.

Yes it does.
As for the xbox controller, it is a bit too chunky to play games on your phone, not very portable and you also have to worry about that big cable dangling around all the time.
Also there is a kernel (perseus) which apparently has support for the xbox controller too.

Thank you this information is very helpful.
I did not realise that android 4.2 makes it difficult to use Bluetooth devices. (I'm on cyanagenmod 10.1). Currently I am having trouble getting the Xbox 360 controller to work with emulators and any game for that matter using the USB BT joy center app. I'm following all the instructions and recommendations to a tee! Is this because I'm on 4.2? I know the OTG cable works because it recognises the controller in the app plus I can use a USB mouse with my device.
Also I never before considered using the Wii remote. I tried to pair mine but the problem was down to the fact I have 4.2 installed. Is there any way round this? I haven't found a solution so far. In don't really want to have to downgrade

I can vouch for the Gameklip with a PS3 controller. Works very well, and is remarkably similar to Nvidia's new Project Shield.
I use a wired connection to the S3 because it's simpler and also because I found sometimes SixAxis would get pushed out of memory and closed if I was playing a heavy game. Annoying if your controller stops working mid-game.

Okay, so got time for a response.
It was in General section, which is against the rules. I reported the thread and a mod moved it in QA. Got it?
If you think that enforcing the rules is silly, you don't belong here.
What exactly do I have to read?

Galaxy Tab S3 + DS4 = HOW

All I want is to be able to use my DS4 Controller on my Galaxy Tab S3. How do I make that happen. Bluetooth and/or usb. I do have a USB 3.0 to USB 3.1 Type C adapter. Yes, "Something" happens when I atempt to sync it with bluetooth, but that "something" is not a functioning controller. A very similar "something" happens when I connect it via USB. I am moderatly tech savy, I guess depending on what your view of that is. SO, In conclusion:
(Galaxy Tab S3 + DS4 = Working controller)HOW.
Thank you in advance.
Update
So, I tried an old Logitec Rumblepad 2 with the USB to USB C adapter I used with the DS4, and still no go. D-pat and left joystick worked for direction, and the "a" and "b" button worked in the home screen UI, but tried minecraft and only the direction controls worked. Seriously, anyone have any luck with any controller at all? Anything? Any apps, tweaks, tips tricks? Anything? Why is the info for this subject so sparse and response to this question nothing?
Have the same issue however after installing the December update the tablet recognises some of the keys on the controller and then lags after using

I got a wireless usb controller
Should have gotten that one but I got the playstation type. Trust me Xbox type is way more comfy
Gutted can't return or replace and 10 year warranty so aw shucks hopefully it'll die out soon!

So yours works on your Tab S3? I was thinking of getting an XB1 controller, but my DS4 worked for darn near everything on my computer, but no dice for my tab. May have to invest in one though, because while I am very much a Playstation guy, I do really like the XB1 controller, and appreciate the PC integration.
