I've searched all the forums, as well as the web, and followed every bit of advice and / or instructions I could find on the issue, but no matter what I attempt to do I can't get any games to work with the xbox 360 controller. Anyone have any idea how to get this to work with the skyrocket via an OTC cable?
More Details:
When I first plugged it in, the device seemed to recognize the controller (the lights on the controller would start flashing, the phone would give a message saying that a usb device is connected - but no games (I used emulators as well as games that are supposed to specifically support playing with an xbox controller, like GTA 3) were able to recognize or use the controller. Since then I've downloaded and installed a few different files on my phone to try to get the controller to work (.kl and .kcm files) as well as the app USB/BT Joystick Center 6 (which recognizes the controller and seems to work when I'm setting it up, but games are still unable to recognize the controller). I'm completely out of ideas of what to do or what the problem could be, so if anyone's had success with this or has an idea how this could be done, that would be fantastic. Thanks!
I bought a Hi763 Miracast from Focalprice mostly for the DLNA feature because I want to stream wireless audio to a receiver. Setup is pretty easy and the device can switch between Miracast and DLNA mode. I am in DLNA mode and the device is connected to my home network just fine.
With the device connected to my network, when I browse "Network" via my Windows 7 PC, I see the device shows up as a media device titled HI763-8B8182-DMR however I do not get any option to connect to it. When I right click a music file, I also do not get the option to "Play To" the device like I would on other DLNA connected devices.
Thoughts on how I can stream audio to the device via Windows 7?

If you open Windows Media Player, you should be able to stream to your dongle via that. But you need to make sure that media streaming is enabled first (go to the network and sharing centre in the control panel, then select "change advanced sharing settings" from list on the left hand side. Choose whichever profile is appropriate for the wifi network you are on and then check "media streaming" (4th item down) is set to on).
The "Network" browse you refer to (presuming you mean the one under Windows Explorer) is for file shares (Samba or Windows shares) and isn't what you want for actual media sharing/streaming (it will presumably be showing up for management connection via web and/or telnet interfaces).
Once things are set up, you should be able to play your file via the stream menu that should be there. You may need to tweak a few settings in media player too though - see the link below for some guidance:

Thank you for the reply. Unfortunately, this Miracast device just does not show up as an available streaming option. I know that the device is connected to the network properly (I can see it and browse the device webpage).
I am basically out of ideas now as I've tried everything.

How are you trying to stream to it? Using which Windows program?

Windows Media Player. My experience with DLNA streaming is that you first have to "install" the device first. Such as with my Onkyo network receiver. I right click the device in My Network, then select the "install device" option. Then I can stream to it. But this Miracast does not have an "install device" option when I right click it in My Network.

Hmm, my experience is different - the DLNA renderer should just be visible to a suitable source and/or controller (such as Media Player), without any need to install anything, once it is connected to the same network as your laptop (the one with the Media Player, or whatever you are using as a DLNA server).
As you can see the device on the network and browse its webpage (I presume you mean by connecting directly to the device using IE or similar via the IP address it generates on the screen) then it's on the network properly. I would suspect that your laptop isn't set up correctly for streaming out to the device. There are details about that on the web, such as the link below (it also depends which version of WMP you are using, only v11 and upwards can do it) for Win7 and Win8:

There's a video on YouTube (link below) for mirroring a phone onto a TV using the device which may help if you haven't already seen it?

I just received mine this morning, and having quite a few problems with it too.
My phone won't detect it in Miracast mode, looks like 4.4 Roms have many problems with screen casting.
My tablet detect it, but it lags a lot and resolution seems to be the same as tablet screen so not 1080p at all, I want to stream Netflix on my TV, tried several HDMI adapters but it's very expensive and often break after a few days, so screen casting is way better to me.
DLNA seems to be working with the Google Play app, but I can't stream Netflix with it
So I was wondering if updating firmware will resolve some problems, or if anyone knows how to activate screen casting on 4.4 custom roms or anything else that will allow me to stream Netflix in HD on my TV lol.
PS : Hey un Clermontois ! lol, je suis de Vichy.
Have you switched on wireless display sharing in the detection?

On my 4.4 phone, when I'm in the screencast settings, I need to press the menu button and check wireless screen casting in order for the phone to detect the dongle. maybe this helps.

Hi
Try using WiFi Display application from Google Play. That's what I use with this dongle, but i've Sony XV 4.3.
and my question: did u send to this dongle video in 720P? was it lucky? i not.
Hi all,
Not sure whether everyone knows this yet or not, but in one of the recent PS4 firmware updates it added a pairing function to the DS4 controller so it could be wirelessly paired with a Playstation 3 as well.. Turns it out also works with Android too (I've tested with my N7 2013 and N5, both running PAC rom 4.4.4) and it works straight away WITHOUT the need of a third-party app
- When the DS4 is off, press and hold the Share button and the PS Button and it enters pairing mode
- Search for bluetooth devices with your phone/tablet and it should come up straight away as Wireless Controller
Just thought i'd post this incase anyone didn't know about it and wanted to try it out on their device too and see if it works :good:

... seriously? read my post again and you'll have your answer.
Sent from my Nexus 7 2013 using XDA Premium HD app
I'm trying to pair my DS4 and rooted (but otherwise stock) N5 but it doesn't seem to work. I put the DS4 in discoverable mode (Share + PS buttons) and"Wireless Controller" shows up in the list of available devices, but when I try to pair them it just sits there "Pairing..." forever. It's been at it for almost 10 minutes now and nothing's happening. I tried restarting the phone and waiting like 20 minutes for the controller to restart but I've run out of ideas. Any suggestions?
Same Issue

I'm having exactly the same problem @Farlo1.
I did read somewhere that the early DS4s don't work using this method.
But those released after a certain date do.
I've got 2 DS4s but they're both from launch, so neither of them is working with this. The only way I've seen to use the DS4 is to invest in a cable, which I don't really want to do...
Let me know if you spot anything different!
Hey, I had my DS4 working flawlessly in my z3 compact, but since I have a GS5, the mapping is all screwy. I tried installing sixaxis and it just added a massive 1+ second lag, with only part of the button press registering, and then it goes all crazy and scrolls everywhere. This gets even worse in PPSSPP, where as soon as I touch the analogue stick it goes haywire... but it was flawless with my z3!
Anyone know anything about this?
doesn't work for playing
I connected everything and started ninjumb dash(game) but the controller(ps4)didn't turn the colour blue and it is not working
pls tell me what to do next

if u have ps4 ,remove socket of your ps4(otherwise when u press ps4 button it will turn on and automatically connect your controller)
and then press(ps4+share) to turn on Bluetooth(ds4)and search in Bluetooth and connect(wireless controller.
same problem

sorry for bringing this post back...
but i'm suffering with this exactly problem!!!
tested with a galaxy s7 edge and a nexus 5.
any workaround? fix?
Hi my DS4 connect to my phone normally but it works little bit slow and I don't know why ?
I know this is a really old post. Never mind. I am able to connect DS4 to my Android phone (using share and PS button), and play games (such as Final Fantasy from the play store), however the buttons are not configured correctly (X is cancel, O is confirm!). Is there any app that will remap the buttons. I have used Sixaxis for the PS3 controller, but would prefer to use the DS4. However each time you switch to Android gaming and PS4 gaming you need to reconnect the controller to each device with OTG cable which is a pain . I have tried Tincore app, but cannot get it to work as don't know how it works!

I was surprised at how easy this was, but yes seems to have some input lag,
I found this on reddit
"Now after about 30sec, and for some unknown reason, you will run into input lag. To fix this you will need to download an app called Bluetooth Auto Connect. Once installed goto Advanced Options - Connect Now. Once you push Connect Now the input lag should be gone."
I haven't had a chance to try this yet but seems promising
Ds4 controller syncs fine to my LG Aristo but it doesn't actually control ****, any game that uses a controller does not see the Ds4. I can use my ds3 with the sixaxis app but I can't do a thing with this Ds4.
I'm trying to use my ps3 controller via Bluetooth via console mode on my tv but it keeps closing all the programs including the sixaxis service.. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

I think console mode is made to work with nvidia's controller specifically. Have ypu tried just mirroring it in full screen mode?
Yeah but that defeats the purpose of having the screen off
Same issue here. Just have to enable six axis blindly through the tablet. I don't think there's a way around it right now. Even my Nvidia shield controller is doing the same. It turns off the Nvidia controller too. But luckily when I turn the controller on it auto connects. Unlike my ps3 controller. But regardless which I use, any open apps closes. Has to be a software fix at this point.
I haven't used a ps3 controller with mine but will the controller connect with the tablet at all when it is powered on or do you have to do that manually through the six axis app?
Sent from my One M8
You could use Gravitybox and add sixaxis controller in quick settings as an custom app. It makes it a lot easier to enable blindly at least
console mode shus down all background programs including the sixaxis service. Unless there is a way to keep it running even in console mode i dont think it is possible atm
My solution to this was to use an Harmony Smart Control remote.
Since it supports controlling Bluetooth devices, I had set it to work with the tablet.
This allowed me to control the tablet once in console mode and turn on six axis.
I imagine a Bluetooth keyboard or a usb one with an OTG cable would also do the trick.
So I got it to work by setting six axis to auto boot with the tablet before I went into console mode

Well with root, you could adjust the Android Task Manager parameters. ROM Toolbox has an option to ignore chosen apps when "multi killing running apps" for instance. It has a "keep alive" option as well. Might be worth playing around with it. It does look like there's a fair chance it wouldn't do anything though if that really is the case.
well?
Auto run the app with LLAMA
Have you guys tried using LLAMA, try setting it to launch the Sixaxis app when console mode launches or when the NVIDIA hub(im not sure on the name here.) opens up.
Make Sixaxis a systems app
Thread is a little old but for those like me looking for a solution I made sixaxis a system app ( plenty of options in the app store) and set it to auto launch in the preference menu. Once it launched into console mode I just reconnected my ps4 controller. Works a treat.
Guys, Sixaxis controller have an "AutoStart" option in settings. Just turn on it before go to console mode and Sixaxis Controller app turn on when console mode start.
Been using the Sixaxis app on my Nvidia Shield tablet to play Gamestream games on my couch. I'm using the DS4 wirelessly over BT. The Shield is connected wired via OTG LAN adapter.
Have a couple of problems that I'm trying to sort out:
1. When I hold down any of the direction pad buttons, the input is taken as multiple fast presses so it's impossible to use in some games like GTA5 where you need to hold down a direction in order to change characters. This "long press" is actually used in quite a few games so it's a big bummer that it doesn't work properly.
2. I set auto-launch in the sixaxis app but when I switch to the console mode it doesn't pair with the DS4 when I turn it in. I have to stop and then re-start the sixaxis to get it to see the DS4.
Would really like to fix at least #1. Any suggestions?
PS: Shield is on Android 5.3.
Would someone who plays with the same setup (DS4 via BT) mind posting screenshot (or description) of their Sixaxis settings?
