What is NOT interesting about it?
I would love to use a sixaxis (or any other controller) for n64 emulators, snes emulators, psx emulators and so on. using the touchscreen as controller is ruining the experience and potential of emulators.
BTW, if you dont have anything constructive or informative to write in these forums, stfu.
On topic:
I got to borrow my friends PS3 controller:
The buttons wont hold in snes emulator, like if you run forward pressing |> and the press X to jump at the same time, I'll have to repress again after the jump |> to keep running in supermario It may be the emulator that does not support "multitouch" so I'll report back tomorrow when I'll buy my own PS3 controller.
Anyone know if the XBOX 360 controller will work w/USB host adapter?

No I mean wouldnt it be better to read and learn and gain more knowledge that will be helpful to your future?
I have read, learned, and gained knowledge. And I can honestly say that using a ps3 controller for emulators running on my tab is going to be ****ing awesome for my future!
Shouldn't you be working on that taskbar color?

Aspie much? Who cares?
Alright, sent and e-mail and got a reply. A bug in the program. Updated and now can connect with PS3 controller. Everything is working smoothly, running splendidly on n64oid 2.1.

I appreciate that information
What ROM's have you tried that is working smooth?
I've tried Super Mario 64, Wave Race 64, Golden Eye and Mario Kart 64.
They all run without hickups or any lag!
Pilot Wings 64 on the other hand gives me black polygons and crackling audio noises.
Should there be a separate thread for Emulator ROM's maybe?
Hey,
I'm having trouble pairing my controller with my Tab,
I installed the Sixaxis Pair Tool and i entered the Bluetooth Mac Address of my Tab (I didn't find it in the actual app, when i pressed Start, on the Tab but i had to enter Android Settings and About.
Anyway, under Current Master it shows the Bluetooth Mac Address of my Tab, i then unplugged the controller, pressed the PS button, and pressed Start in the App on the Tab and it says Connection Initiated.... and thats it, the controller is blinking but it doesn't seem to wanna connect to the Tab
Any help would be appreciated
P.S. I followed the instructions on http://www.dancingpixelstudios.com/sixaxiscontroller/instructions.html
Fixed it with a restart of my Tab, apparently my tab wasn't asking for root until i rebooted,
Great app by the way
My controller is being recognized by the N64oid app when i have to configure the inputs. When I go to play a game though, it won't recognize the controller.
Best money spent on my TAB so far Working perfectly with Snes9x EX.
i followed everything and the app says connection established however, my controller doesn't stop blinking any thoughts? should I just assume that this app doesn't work with samsung devices at all?

I had a problem with mine not registering input even after following the setup and my lights saying it was connected as controller 1. I deleted the sixaxis compatibility checker and then rebooted, started the connection, hit the ps button, and selected sixaxis controller as input and it worked flawlessly. If you're 100% positive you're doing everything word for word and changed the sixaxis' bluetooth address to match your tab's then try a reboot and see if it fixes it.
So the controller finally works. When you enable IME in N64oid the controller will start working. I don't know if anyone else noticed, but does the software support full analog control? I can't get Mario to stop running at full speed even thought i am pushing the stick only a little .
If you are having trouble getting the controller started do this....
Download and SixAxisPairTool on your pc.
Plug the controller into your pc with the usb cable that came with the ps3.
Hit the power button on the controller. A set of numbers will show on top with a empty box below.
On the tablet, run SixAxis Controller. There will be a bluetooth address at the bottom of the screen. Copy these numbers/letters into the sixaxispairtool on your pc.
Unplug the controller, hit start on the controller app on the tablet and hit the power button on the controller. Hit configure input settings and switch to ps3 controller.
You should be all set to go! Good Luck!
The sixaxis works great with every emulator I have tried it with so far. Are there any non-emulator apps that anyone has got working? Any android games that are not emulators? If there are some, then maybe we need to get a list going of what apps work with the sixaxis controller and which ones do not.
I am also all in favor of getting a list of what rom's work for each system.
I have tested mario kart and 007 for N64 and they both work. I have also tested nba jam tournament edition for snes and that works. I am really bummed because cruisn usa will not work in the n64 emulator. The screen is off to the left. Has anyone else tried that one? I love playing cruisn usa.

In N64oid or whichever emulator you are running, go to settings, other settings, and then tick the box for "Use input method"
I'm having the same issue as amarp84
pairing is fine, bluetooth address is fine, connection is established no worries and it says that there is a client connected, but the lights won't stop blinking and sync to a controller port
i'm on 10.1v ... anyone else got it working on the tab so i know if it's just me?
I works great on my tab 10.1.
Anyone get keys to map with N64oid? I cant get multiple joysticks, they all map as DPAD down etc so i cant use seperate joysticks
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.
Hi,
As there are a few apps that support gamepads, but none of them seem to work as well as needed...
I have 2 original PS3 controllers and one Logitech Chillstream PS3 controller. I haven't tried original ones, but I got an USB adaptor gor my galaxy tab 8.9 and connected it... I can see the controller and even mess around with it on home screen and some other places, but I also use an app called XPadder on PC.
As I suck at coding stuff, it's nearly impossible for me to do. I'd like a way to remap stuff, or select areas on screen to map to buttons on the controller. so that it'd be possible to play every game with it.
The only extremely hard thing seems to be running it in the background with full support...
It's just an idea thou... I will not be able to make this... maybe someone could actually do it...
Thanks,
J
I forgot to add that I'm running Android 3.2 with _motley kernel @1400Mhz
Anyone use this controller?
I have SuperGNES, FPse, MC3, ShadowGun, Dead Space, Dead Trigger, Minecraft, and a few other games.
1. Can anyone confirm this controller works with SuperGNES and FPse (probably these two are the most important to me)
2. Can you use a USB min-hub to get more usb ports on the dock and plug in 2 controllers
I'm looking to be able to play 2 player games and curious if others have got it to work.
Thanks
I've just gotten one of these controllers myself today. Unfortunately, I'm having trouble.
Some games work fine, like "Cordy". Another well-known game, Shadowgun, does not. The game mixes up the controls, rendering the right analog stick messed up. It thinks the left trigger is the analog sticks left/right and that the analog up/down is actually on left/right. Unplayable.
before, I've tried connecting two Xbox controllers, both wired. These work fine. You can't play with two controllers, however. Android recognizes both controllers as one, so you'll both control the same thing.
Unfortunately, I don't think there's a solution to the latter, it's a driver issue.
---
Did anyone get Shadowgun to work properly with the F710? If so, please teach me!
---
For the record, I'm using the ASUS Padfone, which is related to the transformer series.
Anyone know about emulators with the F710?
SuperGNES says you need to install gamepad IME, which is free. It installs fine, and I can see it in the settings, but there are no options to bind keys...which makes me think its all in the games but I cant figure out supergnes. It thinks both the A and B buttons are down, and I can't change it in the controller settings.
I just bought my controller, may return it if I can't figure this out. It works natively for Dead trigger. ...kinda pissed it doesn't work the same for superGNES.
After having tested the logitech controller, I've decided to get rid of it and go for Sixaxis with a PS3 controller. It's just way more configurable.

I've had my controller for about 6 months now and there is a way to play ShadowGun with it. You just have to manually map the controller yourself in the options menu for game pad input. Haven't used SuperGNES but I use another emulator called SNESoid and it allows me to map the controller out.
hi!
I've recently bought the fire HD 6, and was thinking if there are any compatible bluetooth game controllers.
I was thinking to connect it to the TV and use it as a sort of android game console.
Thank you very much
Root and use a PS3 controller is probably your best bet.
The Ouya controller work just fine. Just press the OUYA button (located on the low center in the controller), and when two light start blinking, search as any device at bluethooth menu.
The Ouya controller has an integrated touchpad and can be used as a mouse on your screen. But if you're planning to play a game, remember it's depend if that game has the controller button mapping or you'll need to use Tincore Keymapper to do it manually.
I already rooted my KHD6, so I did the controller test after root, but I'm pretty sure you don't need the root to make it work. I use the same controller on my NON-ROOTED Fire Stick TV and works just fine.
PS4 Controller works like a charm, Played Pokemon On Myboy for a little while, while it was linked to my Chromecast.
I would say a PS4 Controller works out of the box as well, as I wasent rooted at the time.

I just bought this controller about week ago and it work with HD6 (I only use GBC,GBA, and Drastic emulators). They work good so far. I haven't test any Android games yet, but I assume it work fine. This controller is awesome. I used with my HD6, phone, and laptop. Recommended!
