Hi,
has someone managed to connect the Playstation 4 Controller with the Z2 ?
Is it possible and which games are supported?
Thanks :good:

I'm eager to try this, my phone is on its way to its new home, so as soon as it arrives I will check it with my PS3 and PS4 controllers. PS3 controller works like a charm on the Xperia tablet with no additional drivers, it is plug n play!
As for the supported games, I'm thinking that maybe all or most of the games on the Playstation mobile store are compatible, other that than I don't know. Cheers.
I can confirm that they do work together.
All you need to do is hold the share and home (PS) button together until the lightbar on the pad starts to flash, once done you just need to pair it via Bluetooth.
Let me know if you need any further help.

So I connected my PS 4 controller with my Z2.
The setup was very easy.
But when I use it with games it's reaction is bad. So when I push a button it takes a while till something happens in the game.
Any ideas?
Thx!

I wrote today Sony Support about the input lag of the controller.
They replied that "The Playstation 4 Controller is not supported"
Awesome news ! :crying:
Maybe someone fixed the input lag issue of you guys?

It's coming soon. I saw it in an ad somewhere (Xperia Z2 running a game with PS4 controller in the background).
Z2 smartphone got already several firmware updates from Sony since the last post on this thread.
Did anyone try to connect the dualshock 4 to Z2 again? and see if it is working perfectly now?

They'll probably make it backwardly compatible, like they did with the Z.... eventually.

Not only will ds4 work on the z3 but so will remote play from the ps4, looking at specs of the z3 it seems no different to my z2 ,well z3 is clocked at 2.5 instead of 2.3ghz, but apart from that the differences seem to be cosmetic.
I am more than a bit annoyed about remote play being included, one of the reasons i bought a z2 (not only reason, but a main one) was sony's way of making there products connect to each other. I remember the ps3 controller worked first with an xperia phone before others. My phone isnt even 6 months old yet and instead of getting features added through updates it seems like sony are keeping these features to sell there next handset.
In all fairness tho, its only remote play and a few tweaks to audio player that make the z3 any different to the z2

Well mate, they have to compete with others, we are all whining about this 6 month old cycle, I myself as well whine about it,
but they cannot show up with nothing at IFA knowing that Samsung is gonna present their Note 4. They are clearly trying to achieve best smartphone of the year thing, but I think they should have gone same as Samsung, in first half of the year the Z line, second half Ultra line maybe.
It's kinda annoying when they are upgrading the same model twice per year mostly because no new things, especially now this z3.
They probably modded camera now how it should be, added HQ to speakers and remote control for ps4, I doubt we will see those things in z2 officially. But then again, we are being late with 4.4.4 with a good reason, most probably because those features, or at least some of them, are gonna hit z2.
And I'm being sceptic with this new IP rating. It's making me think what has changed, and does z2 suffer from building issue regarding waterproof, more and more I see threads about phone leaking water inside even tho I never experienced that, but that's mostly because my device was only few times exposed to heavy rain, but never dunked in water, nor it will ever be since it slipped out of my hand and I had to replace back cover.

i couldnt agree more.... if they want a 6 month cycle they should be doing it with 2 models, what annoys me is the specs are essentially the same, this isnt a new sony phone...... its an overclocked z2 with a few new features which claim to be exclusive but probably wont even need to be modified to work on z2.

Is there anyway i can update my tablet to 4.4.4 it is currently at 4.4.2 and it says it is up to date. I want to use remote play feature and am unable to
Thanks
Have you been able to connect to Sony PC Companion? Ive had this tablet for about 2 months now and have had no luck with 4.4.4 as well. Slightly annoying considering that the people at Verizon who sold it to me said that it was one of the selling points for it, yet here i am with no 4.4.4.

Has anyone tried installing remote play that's available to other Android devices on the 561? I want to see it at least work to be able to connect to DS4 controllers and play PS4 games.

I use the Modded Remote Play App play app from here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2929147
And connect my DS4 with the sixaxis app in play store.
Only real issues are:
1) touchpad button doesnt work, so you have to set up the pad as a mouse and click the on screen button to use touchpad in game.
2) need a 5ghz router as wifi and bluetooth both on 2.4ghz causes lag on screen.

Hi guys. This is my first post and I want to thank all of you that post in these threads and make everyone's life a lot easier.
I understand that PS3 controller support has been dropped from Z5 Compact and that PS4's DualShock 4 does work with our phone.
Do you know if any other controllers work with a Z5 Compact which has not been tampered with or does it support the DS4 only?
Will any branded or generic Bluetooth controller work on a mint Z5 Compact? Say, a Gamesir controller or a mad catz LYNX, for instance?
Please list the controller(s) that you have successfully paired with this phone and that worked properly.
Thanks
I got this one and it works fine

Well, I have an 8bitdo Snes30 game controller and used it really easily on my previous Motorola G2, now that I have a Honor 5x I tried to use it but I havent been able to get it working.
I believe this thread must work for all type of controllers...
When I used it on my Moto G2, as soon as I paired the devices, the keyboard on the cellphone went useless and I could only use my gamepad, when paired on the Honor 5x nothing happens, they pair but its as though the device doesnt recognize it as a game pad, just nothing happens. I watch many videos of controllers such as PS3 or PS4 and Noga controller connected on Android cellphones and as soon as they pair, they work together great, but not with this cellphone.
Anyone knows what should I do, perhaps download an app or something?
Are you in stock ROM?

yes im stock rom, not flashed
Some devices doesn't recognize the Gaming joysticks . it might be honor one of them ! .
