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

How do you connect a bluetooth mouse?

Easy though? Connect your SGS to telly with tv-out and use a Bluetooth keyboard or attach an usb kind of plug-in on your SGS and connect with usb keyboard...
Et voila you can type and use whatsapp..

One my geekiest moments was hooking up my I9000 with the projector we had in the classroom and playing Manic Miner in a Spectrum emulator using a Wii controller. Although using my N810 as a bluetooth keyboard and mouse for my I9000 is also pretty geek.
BTW, PS3 controllers are the ones that use bluetooth (you can use them with the help of the Sixaxis app). You can only connect XBOX controllers through the USB port.

[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.

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?

Sixaxis Controller

Did anyone try to connect a PS3 SIXAXIS controller with OTG? It doesn't seem to work, I read that since the ICS update it was easy and didn't require any apps or anything like that.
Anyone else got this to work?

Hi ! I tried to play Dead Triggers with Sixaxis through OTG on stock rom and it works ! :victory:

I haven't tried yet via OTG, if Sony added gamepad support it should work fine (and looks like it is from the above post). Will try this evening.

Just tried my dual shock via OTG and it worked with no problems ! It even charged it, going to try connecting via bluetooth when its fully charged.
Tried 3 various USB drives, all of them were under powered and therefore didn't work (require a powered hub)

There's an excellent app on the market called sixasis.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller
Sixasis connects your device to a PS3 controller via bluetooth & has its own mapping profiles.
I use it on my Nexus7 and it's brilliant.
Unfortunately for those with locked bootloaders it requires root so some will have to wait for a root exploit.

Does Bluetooth work in the end? All the videos I've seen show the controller connected at all times.

No, you can play wirelessly, it works on my HTC sensation. Press thanks if I have helped.

Does it require root though?

There's a video on the Web showing the Xperia SP to go wireless with Dual Shock http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/50771/sony-xperia-phones-dualshock-3
Maybe we have to wait some time!

What graffus said,
Let's hope it's available in the next update.
It lets you use the ps3 controller via Bluetooth
By first plugging it in via usb otg, letting it detect the controller -unplug from usb otg- then allowing it to connect via bt. No root required

There's no news... you just plug it in via USB OTG and it works. Always has worked on .244. Then you can pair via bluetooth. I've been using it on .244 stock since I updated

Thanks! For some reason the C6616 has to be updated via flashtool. As of now I'm running 4.1.2, which is why I didn't see any support for the controller on the settings. Is there any list of compatible games floating around?

I'm pretty sure that any games that support a controller are supported by the dualshock.

Well if you have the usb otg just pair it then run your bluetooth and press the PS button on the controller and thats it no need to buy the sixaxis app

try this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5sb2NuZXQuZ2FtZWtleWJvYXJkIl0.

Wow, I never knew this was possible.

its ok for compatible games with native gamepad support.:good:
but if not, like fifa 14 you have to use the sixaxis app from the market to pair the controller and setup a game profile, or just google download one for the game.
i have made a profile for fifa 14 it works great with all fetaures like configured swipe gestures for buttons etc...
if anyone is interested in my pfolie for fifa 14 let me know this and i will upload. :laugh:

Hello it would be very nice if you could upload it

It didn't work that way unfortunately, I heard about some kernel modifications to allow USB Host controllers .. I'm now installing CM 10.1 hoping I can get my keyboard and mouse working

just an ordinary USB mouse, I tried it on my friend's Note 10.1 (N8000 with ICS 4.0.4) and it worked ! so can this be just a compatibility issue with my tab, or our GalaxyTab 2 or JellyBean doesn't support mouse at all ??

Very odd, I used a
Basic Logitech, Microsoft and an ibm mouse wired usb and all Work fine.
Are you using the original usb adapter?
I also have the ps3 controller WIRED working on stock no root 4.1.2 tab 2 10.1

I tried my OTG cable as well with Note 10.1, it works fine, I think it's not the problem ..
I can connect many peripherals as keyboard and flash memories (even a USB Modem), but for mice I couldn't .. I'll try another mouse just in case if the current mouse isn't compatible enough to work with the tab ..
and btw, did you need any additional apps to connect your PS3 controller?

No additional apps needed, remember I use a wireless ps3 but plugged in always.
Currently playing shadowgun deadzone and max Payne .
and starcraft with a mouse
