PS3 navigation controller on android (not normal controller) - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Looking for some sort of a wireless wii nunchuck that will work with my g2 phone. Honestly, all I have is a bunch of questions that people is a ps3 and an android phone would know. The app u use is called sixaxis.
1. Is it 100% necessary to root my g2 for the ps3 controllers to work?
2. Is it possible to sync just the ps3 move navigation controller alone to the system?
Again the controller is called "ps3 move navigation controller"
Thanks for anything anyone would be able to help me with.

As of now, ps3 move navigation controller is no supported with sixaxis app. Hopefully it would be soon. Since I have a keyboard phone I can use all my keyboard buttons in one hand while holding the phone and in my other hand use the ps3 navigation analog stick.
I've been doing this with the wiimote sometimes but it doesn't have full analog touch capabilities.

Just a heads up. That wand doesn't use sixaxis technology it is an infrared light detected by the PlayStation eye. There is no way for the move sand to work with an android phone unless you can get the android to somehow connect to the PlayStation eye.

Sixaxis supports PS3 to Droid but you need to see if your paqrticulat deice is compatible with this merge so get this app first SixAxis Compatibility Checker If you do not get a "Error: Missing required protocol" message after youve started the app, then you are good to go. The next step is to
get the SixAxis Controller Kit there are ways of getting this free but anyway after that get on your computer the rest is from the PC end! I can elaborate more on this if you want to know more
My Huawei Ascend M860 works perfectly with this method!

Xoom Controller Q's

I know there is that thread for the Xbox controller, but how about ps3, can that connect wirelessly? Or even with the cord? Is the only thing I need to get this working is a USB OTG deal?
Also what games are you guys using with these controllers, I know a lot of people are using emulators, but what apps are you using to get them and the ROMs? Also besides emulators, what other games are working well with controllers?

Yea man this is pretty sweet. You just have to map the keys correctly and it works flawlessly. I like the feeling of the ps3 controller more than my xbox 360 controller.

Do you map it through android settings or what? I had a wiimote hooked up when i got the Xoom, but pretty much just to test it. I wasn't ver thrilled. But for that there was an app since it was wireless.

I was curious about this too. The 3.1 update comes with the additional keylayout files for the controllers and their mappings (there's even one for a logitech racing wheel) so would you really NEED to remap them?

He must be talking about remapping in the emulators themselves. The 3.1 update, even if it does have full profiles for the various compatible controllers, will only map keys in the OS itself. Programs that support the profiles will work automatically, or that happen to use the same keys i.e. just because the triangle button on the dualshock is mapped to "g" doesn't mean that SNESoid automatically maps the y button to g. This is what I would expect the case to be, anyway

[Q] Using a PS3 controller WITHOUT Sixaxis App

Hello guys!
I finally rooted my Droid Charge, so I bought a mini to micro USB to see if the Sixaxis App was compatible with the Charge (with was a mistake from me), and it turns out that it is not..
So now that I have this cable to connect the controller directly to the phone, I was wondering if there is any way I can use it to make the Sixaxis work
Does anyone know about a program, an app, or anything allowing me to do so?
Thank you!
There is an app for it but our blitooth drivers arnt supported yet. I think the app is called sixaxis on the market. Maybe you can hook up with a dev to get it working

Yeah. Bluetooth is weirdly implemented on Samsung phones. It may just not work at all.

Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Did you really read my post :-D
Like I said, I tried the sixaxis App, it does not work. Therefore, I assumed that the Bluetooth isn't compatible, or at least not yet.
That's why I'm asking if there's any way if we can use the controller using the mini to micro usb cable that I have.
By the way I apologize for the confusing thread title, I meant "Without Using Sixaxis App"

[Q] Has anyone managed to get any gamepad working, natively?

I got my OTG USB cable and mice etc. seem to work fine. Tried the wired xbox controller and while it is detected via the BT joystick test app, it wont work in any apps.
Tried another generic USB gamepad today and nothing, not even recognised in the test app.
So has anyone managed to get a gamepad working natively? The main reason I ask if that my mum likes to play the odd old arcade game (cool huh) and she would need gamepad support and wont bother if she has to pay out and configure another it all via another app!
thanks
guess not
I have gotten a wireless sixaxis controller to work via bluetooth, but my wired xbox controller will not work.

Use a ps3 controller. No wires = boss. And you can even use it for touch screen only games.

yeah if I could get one cheap then it would be great, my mum wont be up for spending a fortune
I have the same problem here. In my case I have generic USB controller and totally the tab and BT joystick test app cannot detect it. Did you manage to make it work?
For those who were able to get the game controller to work on tablet, which ROMS have the sixaxis program installed?

Dead trigger and sixaxis

Hey guys,
I have been looking around the forums and on Google and cannot find the answer so hopefully someone here has an easy fix.
So I got sixaxis working on my tf700 fine even playing dead trigger it is working except 1 little part. The main screen of the game where its like a birdseye view of a city where you can choose different levels and shops and stuff to go to. The ps3 controller will not work on the screen, it only works in the actual game when your running around shooting zombies.
Sorry if this sounds confusing but I tried to explain it so people know what screen I am talking about.
Thank You

I noticed the same thing because I will use an HDMI cable to play it on my TV like a console game. But I have to go to the tablet to navigate the menu. The best idea is use a wireless mouse or Bluetooth mouse

Does sixaxis emulate your fingers touching the screen or does the game see it as a gamepad? This question has bothered me forever haha

Its both. It allows you to connect a ps3 controller with bluetooth and set it to either emulate touch or as a game pad. To do touch you have to set up things called profiles individually for each app you'll use it for. Like I use it for modern combat 4 and sas3 which neither support game pad.

ps3 controller and s4?

Hey, so just now i got my OTG cable from samsung, and i connected my controller and i use padkey settings app to use the controlelr with, but the app nor games will recognize the right stick... does that only work if the phone is rooted?
Cause i do not want to root my phone at all :/
If you don't root then your options are limited. Using the otg cable you may or may not have all the features you need.
For example, Dead trigger works perfectly via otg, as does Bards Tale. Modern Combat 4 on the other hand both analog sticks don't work and the buttons aren't mapped.
You need to Root and get Sixaxis and everything pretty much works because you can map touch screen inputs to the controller.

Ok cause if sixaxis is the same as the one on iphone is then is it so that for example in fps it doesnt auto turn around when you hold the right stick to either sides?
