[Q] Help connecting controller to phone. - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have searched everywhere including here on xda and couldn't find an answer to my issue, I have a Samsung galaxy s3 international model running cm 11 ROM with android 4.4, what I am trying to do is to connect my original Xbox 360 wireless controller to my Android device using the USB dongle with an otg cable. I read every possible thread and did everything but couldn't get any answer. I tried the method where you paste a vendor Id file into the system/usr/modules folder, and use the chmod command on terminal. I tried to use one where you'd paste a file called xpad.ko. into the root of the internal storage and it also didn't work, please help me you can , I would appreciate it very much.

[Q] Adding bluetooth device while broken screen

I am on the forum for a while but this is my first post.
So my situation is the following.
My S3 display broke and the touchscreen with it. I want to know would it be possible to add a bluetooth keyboard with integrated mouse (a Logitech Mediaboard pro) by editing the settings files on the pc and than transferring it to the smartphone?
The phone is rooted, without adb and with usb deubugging disabled but somehow i manage to get Odin detect the phone.
So I thought of editing a recovery.img from the SGS3 Toolkit recovry folder so that when i flash the phone it is already paired with the keyboard.
But I have no knowledge how to do this and a bit of help would be more than apreciated as well as any other method to achieve the above mentioned.
I thought connecting a keyboard and than to tv so i can use it untill i get a new display.
My smartphone model is:
Galaxy S3 GT-i9300 with PDA:LIB, PHONE:LIB, CSC:LI1 (read from kies)
no. buy an OTG adapter and connect a usb mouse. won't be able to hook up video though

Access internet

Hello,
I have rooted OnePlus One device (Android 5.1.1 custom ROM Sultanxda) and an old PC which have installed ubuntu 10.04. That PC don't have internet connection so I can't perform sudo apt get comand. Kindly teach me how do I connect to the internet by using my OnePlus One device and above ubuntu version OS.
Thank you.
If you have wireless option on PC its as easy as setting up a mobile hotspot, otherwise you can use a USB cable as well
A quick Google (or xda) search will give lots of guides on this
Thanks for reply. I only have USB cable option. Can you please help me how do I proceed. When I searched on internet all of them saying to have some apt get, but here qestion is when (i don't have internet connection on the PC; my only tool is my device to access the internet) starts to solve the problem, solution starts itself with head of problem. Even if I downloads some file in the device, I am not able to copy them in PC because it is neither mounting the device nor any MTP/ADB functionality available. Is there any way to copy / access the device through twrp?
Bump...
See if you can get MTP to work in Ubuntu with this:
edit -
/lib/udev/rules.d/69-libmtp.rules
Add:
ATTR{idVendor}=="05c6", ATTR{idProduct}=="6764", SYMLINK+="libmtp-%k", MODE="660", GROUP="audio", ENV{ID_MTP_DEVICE}="1", ENV{ID_MEDIA_PLAYER}="1", TAG+="uaccess"
ATTR{idVendor}=="05c6", ATTR{idProduct}=="6765", SYMLINK+="libmtp-%k", MODE="660", GROUP="audio", ENV{ID_MTP_DEVICE}="1", ENV{ID_MEDIA_PLAYER}="1", TAG+="uaccess"
Restart udev:
sudo service udev restart
As far as an internet connection, if your carrier (or rom) supports wifi tethering, then you can get a USB wifi adapter. If you are able to tether, then you can also transfer files wireless by using an app like WiFi File Explorer Pro.
There is no /lib/udev/rules.d/69-libmtp.rules in my PC. Do I have to create one new?
I tried to create one new and paste above two lines and restarted udev, but no luck. When i says lsusb it says :
Bus 001 Device 015: ID 05c6:6775 ualcomm, Inc.
@other:
Kindly don't post your answer(s) for just sake of posting because its frustrating me, why I am fighting with ubuntu, while same is running fine in windows...duh. Before posting your answer please please please check whether its is checked by you or you are just pasting **** answer at all over the internet.

USB On-The-Go functionality for CM-based ROMS

I'm not sure whether I'm having hardware issues, but USB OTG function doesn't seem to work when I'm trying to connect a flash drive to my phone (XT1521). I've tried this on both CM13 (August Nightlies onwards) and RR 5.7.4. Previously on stock rom (6.0), USB OTG works okay when it comes to flash drives. Nowadays, my phone doesn't seem to detect flash drives, though it could detect other input devices, such as mouse. Please note that the flash drives are using FAT format. Is there anyone who's having the same problem? I'm really wondering whether this is an issue with CM-based ROMS for Surnia, or it's just my phone. Any helpful info would truly be appreciated.
well, Ive used cm13 and have been able to connect the pendrive using otg and was able to view the files. Try this=>
download es file explorer and then slide for the side menu and u will find a tab named "local", click on it and u will find the usb device connected. Click on the name of the usb drive and u will be to access it..
Note: Ive tried numerous apps but none except es file explorer could detect the usb device.

I've just downloaded ES File Explorer and did what you've just said. Sadly, there's nothing. :'( I do see the point of using ES, as some USB Drives seem to be rather picky with file explorers, even with my Xperia M back in the days. Is there any prompt appearing in your notifications drawer when you plug in your drive? I get nothing. ?
