So, i'm used to play emulators and some light games on phones to pass some time and i've recently bought a Redmi Note 4X. The thing is, my DS4 controller (the one for PS4) is not working on this phone.
I'm using stock MIUI with locked bootloader and i don't know why it isn't working! On every other phone i've used the DS4 just worked by connecting it over bluetooth or USB, but this one doesn't.
Is there any fix for it or anything i can do? This is so annoying

Hi,
Just picked myself up a 16GB Tablet Z-£315 in the airport in Australia, thanks very much!!
Loving it so far, after returning a Nexus 10 with a dodgy screen.
One big reason for me to keep it stock and not unlock the bootloader and flash AOSP or CM10.1 is the built in dual shock support.
Well I've just purchased a Dualshock 3 controller and paired it up and I've got to say/ask, how crap is this?? I'm seriously disappointed, it seems like none of the games I have work with it:
Delver:can move with left analogue stick, can rotate left and right with UP and DOWN on the right stick, can't attack.
Minecraft: Doesn't work.
Pixel Dungeon: Doesn't work.
Bridge Constructor: Doesn't work.
Lode Runner: Doesn't work.
Etc...
Particularly disappointed with Minecraft-on Nexus 10 framerate was like crap-works perfectly on Tablet Z but the onscreen controls just kill my RSI riddled hands and forearms, this version of the game would be so f&&king sweet with a PS3 controller on this screen.
Is there any knack to getting the controller to work? Does the rooted Sixaxis app work better than the 'built in dualshock' support? Do any games at all work with PS3 controller?
Thanks.
I was a little disappointed that more games didn't work with the controller natively myself, these are the games that I've tested that do work though: GTA vice city, dead trigger, shadowgun, and snesoid for SNES emulation. If anyone else has been using the controller successfully feel free to share

I'm not sure the list is correct. For instance, I downloaded Temple Run (which is on that list) just for the sake of seeing if the controller worked with it, and it does not.

I've only used Shadowgun which was pretty good with a controller. If you look further down the list, he didn't link to Temple Run and also there was a Sony site linked that was a store of supported controller games.
I've purchased Another World and already own GTA 3, both work a treat with PS3 controller. Just a shame that Minecraft doesn't work!! Dammit
I think for now only game available on Playstation Mobile app (or Playnow) are compatible with DS3.
I don't know if the offer is still valable on Xperia Privilege app with 25euro gift, if yes use it to buy from PS Store.
Mega Blast work wirelessly.
edit : didn't see comment above before posting.
What OTG cable did you guys use? I bought a 4-pack from amazon and none of them worked

Works with my Nexus 7 for mass storage and worked with Tablet Z to pair dual shock 3 controller.
LOVE this feature.
I use it for SNES emulators. Just had to map the buttons once, and it works flawlessly.
More Play store apps need to support controllers though, definitely.

What SNES emulator do you prefer?
I use snesoid but that's just because its what I've always used. It gets the job done and have never had a reason to check out any other emulators.
Such a shame they switched the upper left row of buttons with the lower right one, GTA 3 is kind of hard to play in this way. I'm using an SGP321 on .253 though so maybe it's fixed in .307?
Hello I bought asphalt 8. Its a great game best racing game thats for sure but I tried connecting my ps3 controller to play it like that with NO GO. 0 support its like nothing is connected.

Spent an hour on this sht so yea im mad lol why cant it be easy like any other game? Have to configure it idk how. Any help?

i am also having the same problem soo fustrated
You take the normal usb cable from the ps controller and buy a USB OTG Adapter, thats it
six axis
you can also use the six axis pair tool for pc to change the master address of ps3 blue tooth
so you would not need to buy OTG cable
I would imagine you will also have to make a touch profile for your device in six axis app
I'd love to see soultion or proper profile for that game. I can't use OTG on my nexus
You have to use a touch profile in sixaxis.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45441104&postcount=47
Profile goes to '/sdcard/data/com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller/profiles/'
It is explained in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31634416&postcount=2
Dude, I used the OTG method. The game recognised my ps3 controller. But the controls are hideous. Like no auto accelerate and L1 and R1 aren't brake and now and we'll it's all screwed up. The game crashes when I go to the controls tab in settings. Please help.
I was really hoping to find a way to make the OnLive Universal Controller work with Asphalt 8. I know the Moga Pro works great with it so I'm curious what is is that makes the Moga work with it but other controllers do not, or at least not as well if they do work.

The moga works because the game has a control profile specifically for it. Asphalt does not work with hid controllers AFAIK.
Just confirmed that an otg cable connected to a USB and a ps3 controller can be used on this tablet, particularly the Tab S 8.4 without root.
Was able to play Asphalt 8 perfectly with it. Any other games that are confirmed to work on this tablet? I was looking into purchasing the latest z modern combat but just wanted to see if others have tested it to work with OTG.
mc4 did support it.... i think mc5 will do as well
Mc5 does supports otg ds3 but fc alot .. You can search " controller support android game " for more information
And if you already have mc4 , will you test it with ds3 and tell me if it work perfectly or not ? Mine looks down automatically

Sorry if this has already been posted somewhere else, but
For the benefit of myself and hopefully others, could you confirm the otg usb cable you've succesfully confirmed working on the 8.4, ideally a link to the product page with product info if thats possible? If thats cool

PS3 OTG
Using 10.5 Tab S, USB OTG cord and a PS3 controller to play PS1 games very nicely with FPse. Root not needed, recognizes as native controller. Will not work with root and using Sixaxis to play wirelesly though, but passes the Sixaxis compatability tool though, and controllers mac added to match Tab S's mac as well

hey could you share the settings you used to get FPSE to work with the wired ps3 controller?
I've tried connecting it with several USB devices and all resulted in a failure. Basically, I'd like to know if I can use xbone or ps4 controller with it before I get one. x360 and ps3 controllers optionally.

Hmm, I don't have moga and I kinda don't want to get it just for android gaming. I'd like a single controller for both PC and my tablet. Btw, is your tablet rooted or not? I'm kinda new to this so I don't even know if it's possible to root it.

hi. im just new here. any update on this thread.? i have already update to russian firmware and rooted by towel root and installed some stickmount apps and estrong app but still cant detect any usb. hope someone could help here. thanks
I tried many times pairing the Dualshock 4 with the Nexus 9 via bluetooth, but it gets stuck in pairing and does not connect. No errors or anything, just hangs there, and then the controller eventually times out of new connection pairing mode.
Connecting the Dualshock 4 via OTG cable works flawlessly, but what I really hoped for was a wireless connection.
On the other hand, the Dualshock 4 connects to my Nexus 4 via bluetooth just fine, out of the box with no additional software, which is why I expected it to work the thr Nexus 9 too. Although it's not very usable.. It's perfect for a little bit, very responsive, but then it's starts to lag to a point where it's unusable... Off topic, but anyone has experience with this lag issue too?
Anyways, main question is has anyone tried to pair their Dualshock 4 with the Nexus 9 out of the box via bluetooth and got it to work? If yes, is it usable? If no.. why not?
Solved:
Sixaxis works like a champ. I used a computer to pair up the controller with the Nexus 9 for Bluetooth use by installing their pairing program, and everything works well, including the touch pad. Glad I took the Dualshock 4 over the Xbox One controller!
I recommend reading this: http://www.dancingpixelstudios.com/sixaxiscontroller/instructions.html
If followed their instructions, it should be all good. Good luck all, and happy gaming!
i have dualshock 3 controllers and have to use the sixaxis app to use bleutooth.

How does that tool work? I've read about it but haven't tried yet.. To my (limited) understanding, you'd use a computer to help pair the controller with the device for the first time, and then later on it would just pair properly every time, without the need for the computer?

excactly. its just like you need to pair up the ps3 controller with the ps3 for the first time.
after that just start the app and press the home button on the controller.
I have used 2 controllers at the same time works flawlesly.
Tomorow a friend will bring 2 extra controllers.
so i will try to connect 4 at the same time.
It will be epic playing smash bross
Same here, even after the 5.0.1 update, it still refuses to connect to my dualshock 4
