[Q] Will this Wired PS3 work with TF101? - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I have TF101 ICS latest update, not rooted. I had XBOX wired controller, no luck with that, without doing proper research I ordered a "Wired Shock Game Controller For Sony PS3 " now I hear every one is talking about a wireless with pairing using a cable and remove it to use the BT once paired. Can any one tell me how to make my wired PS3 to work? It is still did not arrive hence I don't know if it works or not.
I have second thoughts to see if I should message the seller to get a wireless ps3.
I don't own a Play station I am buying this exclusively to play Shadowgun on my TF101.
Any help much appreciated.

One phone two pads, one game

Hi all,
Got myself a SGS3 and am dabbling with the controller input app Joy center, using it mostly for xbox 360 controller input.
For the most part it works great, although L3 and R3 don't respond, it's still good.
My question is, is it possible to get a two player on the go using this app?
I've tried with a mock ps3 controller (wired) and an xbox controller wired, but it only allows one input at a time.
Does anyone have any hands on experience with this as of yet?
I know it's possible with bluetooth via the six axis controller app, but i don't have two ps3 controllers laying about, i do have multiple wired xbox 360 controllers so that's why i'm asking.
I also have the official mhl cable, but that's another story.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers.
PS: Not sure if anyone else has yet seen these beauties (well not the prettiest but still cool)
Announced at e3, should be out in the autumn.
Finally a dedicated BT controller, works on all v3 + devices.

Xbox 360 controller

Hello! I recently purchased my new nexus 7 and though it would be a good investment to buy a rockcandy xbox 360 controller seeing as they are much cheaper then official xbox 360 controllers... Only problem is once I got my OTG cable and plugged it in, loaded up GTA and I found that the right trigger is constantly being activated... At first I though it might be the controller so I plugged it into my xbox and it worked perfectly, so then I changed the OTG cable thinking it was at fault, but no luck! Did anyone ever use a rock candy xbox360 controller on their nexus or any android device and manage to get it working?
P.S: I prefer to stay unrooted... Although if there is an easy solution I will be willing to root my device!

What are you guys and gals using as far as gaming controllers. I have a PS3 and Xbox One controller at home. Just wondering if either can be easily used with the Tab S. Just purchased Modern Combat 5. So far I've played it on the G3 and Nvidia Shield.

controller recharges the tablet
is it possible to connect the controller (that has a battery pack) to the tablet and recharge the tablet?
eg. can a xbox one controller, that has a battery pack, be connected with an mhl cable/usb cable to a tablet and be used to charge the tablet?

Finally figured it out...just in time for my trip!
I ended up buying the Red Samurai controller from Gamestop for $15.
I am able to connect and use with retroarch. Just needed to install the free app, Bluez IME. Takes a bit of configuring but once it's set, the controller works flawlessly.
The app and retroarch even has a reconfigured profile for the controller.

Great suggestion. I'm thinking buy the Moga Pro but this is cheaper and it is more similar with PS controller.
Can you tell me if you can play in emulators such as the PSP emulator?
Has anyone tried an original xbox wireless controller with the receiver connected to the usb (via adapter)? The receiver seems to has power,
but the controller wont connect. PS3 controller works though.
my xbox controller doesnt work, as others have said. so how would I go about getting a ps3 controller to work? is it a wired one and can i pick up any cheap ps3 controller?

The sixaxis app does recognize my ps3 controller (afaik there are only wireless with optional cable), but only with cable plugged in. Bluetooth does not work, though the controller
has the right master adress.
Ok the problem seems to be the pairing. If paired from the tablet, it wont work... if paired from the pc, it works.
see I know sod all about the ps3 pad, I dont even know what pairing on the PC means or how you would set it up...
Hello!
Did anyone connect SteelSeries Free controller to the Tab S? I'm thinking about getting one and I would like to make sure that it will work.
Trying to pair red samurai wireless tablet controller with my tab s
the bluetooth can see the device, but when i select it to pair the device with my tablet, it asks me to confirm the PIN code for the device, which is displayed when i select to pair. But it fails to pair every time because I don't see any dialog box or anything pop up to enter the PIN code to pair successfully.

red samurai controller (GameStop)
Using the red samurai controller with all playstore emulators works well but with a little lag between button press and action.
BTW GameStop has it for 8 bucks and the tab recognizes it via Bluetooth no problem

The PS3 controller is the best way to go for me...
I bought the red samurai for $8 also just to play emulators..
The controller paid with no problems and I was able to map all the keys but the lag from button press to In game action was unbareable
The PS3 was fussy to set up but it's more 1to1 responsive..

If you are using the red samurai v2 you do not need blue imz, it should just work.. or at least it does for me. I also have not noticed any input lag even vs a usb controller I was using over usb otg until I decided I wanted to be able to charge and use a controller at the same time. I have also used the same red samurai v2 on my win 8.1 htpc just for testinf and it paired right away and worked with near 0 input lag.
Im just using sixaxis controller
Using a ipega 9023 version 2 with the red buttons ......awwwweeeessssooommeee

Just tried the mi gaming pad but tab s doesn't even recognised it... looks like a waste of money, to bad... my honor6 gsm paired directly without any problems! Damn you samsung!!!

Fixed it! I installed it on my tab s ? I installed bluetooth autoconnect and then bluetooth terminal which is in wears Polish or Russian or so but I used it to scan for connecting devices and it saw the device... then went to bluetooth settings in tab s and it stood there ready to pair with !!! Me happy !!!

Controller for Tab S 10.5

For some odd reason my Bluetooth won't turn on anymore, so my controller is useless now.
I bought a xbox 360 gamepad to find out the device doesn't power it (and they won't even refund grrr). Could anyone who has a working WIRED controller share it's model? Just so I can buy one safely, knowing it'll work.
The Xbox gamepad stopped working with Lollipop for me. Used to work on Kitkat. So if you wanna go back...

I am on KitKat and it doesn't work already.
Odd. It used to work for me. Is this an MS original or a third party controller you're using. Also, this is a wired controller right? Not a wireless connected with a charger cable because that won't work.

An original MS controller for xbox 360. The 4 circle leds would just keep blinking together.
never ever worked on my 8.4 tab s, wired proper 360 controller.
such a shame as there are some good games like raiden as well as the emu stuff.

I'm not talking specifically about 360 controllers though. I'm asking if there's ANY wired controller that is known to work with this tablet. ANY brand.
Before I got my wireless bluetooth controller I was using a Game Elements Recoil model GGE909 over a dirt cheep usb otg adaptor. I never could get my usb Xbox controller to work so I just fell back on an old cheep usb one I had and it worked great aside from taking up a usb port. My galaxy tab s is the 8.4 wifi model so I can't guarantee it will work but it probably should with your 10.5.
360 Controller never worked, if you get a powered OTG adaptor it might work. Lots of people talk about the MOGA controllers as bluetooth controllers that work well.

For usb controllers and usb otg I tend to find the ones that don't need special drivers or programs to run on windows tend to work the best.
The bluetooth controller I got is the gamestop red samurai v2. Nice layout, good buttons and triggers(not analouge though), well placed analouge sticks for the few android apps that support those, and great compatability. Overall I really like it and best of all gamestop is getting rid of tablet accessories so they are dirt cheep.

ah I assume thats over in the US and not available here in the UK :*(
how much is dirt cheap as I do have some friends over there and if its that cheap, might be worth having one sent.
I picked up my near console (unlike the ouya) grade controller for $7.97 U.S. No clue what they cost online, but most of the gamestops that still have tablet accessories are selling those accessories cheaply to reduce inventory that the company is moving away from.

Samsung Galaxy S7/Edge. Found a Working controller!

Samsung Galaxy S7/Edge controller found without root......
For all those people who are having a hard time finding a working controller for tge Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge..
I have a bunch of 3rd Party controllers laying around the house, one was a PC XBOX shaped controller made for lower grade games and that didn't seemed to work, tried the cord with PS3 controller and was not successful pulled pulled out PS4 Controller as I have read Previous threads they didn't seem to work and wanted to see for myself, then I tried the Xbox 360 controller and that didn't work after all, I haven't tried an Xbox one controller yet but will do when I get my hands on one......
Then I remembered there was a Logitech Wireless controller somewhere, I was looking all over the place for it......
Then my Dad came out with it and he said he was waiting for the right time to tell me, he knew where it was and was trying to find some leverage over me, I finally got it stuck it in my Samsung OTG and vwalah it bloody works, but only with some games.
Controller name: Logitech Wireless Gamepad F710
Supported Games:
Minecraft
Modern Combat
Neon Shadow
Will add more in the future or if someone has this controller they could add supported games and I'll give them a try.
you talking about wireless controllers? because the wired xbox one controller is working fine here with moonlight gamestream. didn't try it with mobile games tho.
I use a Moga controller in HID mode. I like it for my lego games.
