USB hosting for gamepads

Does anyone have USB gamepad support working on the G2X?
I know it works on other android devices and needs to be supported in the kernel but don't know which if any support USB host for gamepads
The lack of bluetooth options with analog support is disappointing

The lack of bluetooth options with analog support is disappointing and this is the next best thing. I have a few PS2 style wireless USB controllers that would work great.

Working beautifully in my smart q t20 tab with an ipega BT controller.
I use option scr invert X and swap X/Y, in out device
Great work! Much better than sixaxis controller and free!!!
This could be a great tool to get some games working on an OUYA. I'll play around with this as soon as I have the time and report back! Thanks!
I have been able to get the ouya control sticks working by swapping x/y axises and inverting the x axis. So far I have set this up for dead tiger and minecraft.
event_strategy.ouya_game_controller_0.stick0.axis_swap=1
event_strategy.ouya_game_controller_0.stick0.axis_x=X
event_strategy.ouya_game_controller_0.stick0.axis_x_invert=1
event_strategy.ouya_game_controller_0.stick0.axis_y=Y
event_strategy.ouya_game_controller_0.stick0.axis_y_invert=0

Estabilization of touch as input.
New mode absolute touch.
New modes virtual pointer (hybrido mouse/touch). Very useful in NFS for non touch devices.

Other fixes and optimizations.
2.6.4
Analog stick calibration
2.6.0
Many bugs corrected.
Experimental remote and touch as input modes and a lot of other things here and there.
are there any video tutorials? or step by step guides? Honestly I have no idea how to use this and didn't understand the wiki page
Exclude devices
Is there any way to exclude device that is conected beacause you dont want to use it in games?
for example i have Conectet to my ouya wireless usb keyboard and mouse witch i dont use in games...
without some tutorials, this is useless! i appreciate the time you spent making this but most of us here have no idea how to use it.
the videos on youtube show just some people paying games, no real DEMONSTRATION.
i'm using NYKO playpad pro and i can't control most of my games.
this might be the right app.
Awesome!
Thank you Tincore, I must say this app is very useful not only for gaming but for my home entertainment.
I use my S4 connected to TV via MHL adapter and ipega wireless controller, both works pretty good and setup is quite easy for me.
To make it more perfect, it possible to have auto load profile to a specific profile? because I want my non games use specific profile (with hybrid virtual pointer and home,back,etc shortcut so I can easily go around the launcher and other app movie, gallery from my couch) but when launching specific game, I want it to load specific game profile.
Also can you explain extra paid support feature below,
- Add extra touch controls? --> what other extra touch? why is it useful?
- Analog stick input? --> I dont understand, sorry
Each extra feature has different price and almost $25 for all features, do you have premium one with cheaper price
I don't see any overlaid buttons at all when I have my Moga connected to my Nexus 4. Are they supposed to show up automatically when I open Tincore?
Edit - figured it out, have to press buttons to get them to show up, working perfectly now
How do you do to use it with a bluetooth gamepad?
It doesn't seem to recongnize my gamepad if I hit the refresh option on tincore and click que bluetooth sync button on the gamepad, so how is it supposed to connect to the gamepad?
Is there someone who can help me to setup my moga pro to play at order and chaos?!
Michealtbh? Can you help me?

Open Tincore then minimize it. Open the game, launch Tincore while in the game (I use Smart Statusbar to help with this) then map the buttons. It couldn't be easier.
You really need to be more specific if you need help.
help
man.. i really need your help. i have lenovo s920 and.. i tried to pair it with ipega via tincore. but it doesnt work,, just force close. i try blueimez and bt joystick and it just the same. but only tincore can detect my ipega. my you have a solution..
my s920 run in jelly bean 4.2.1.
I still can't get a hang of it of Tincore Keymapper. Im trying mapped keys for touch screen games mc4, shadowgun,fifa, codboz, etc for use with xbox 360 wireless controller on a mk802iv android pc mini. Basically, whenever I make tincore visible to mapped out the touch screen keys, it either pause the game or black it out. I probably gonna have to use post-it notes to tape position of touch keys on my smart tv. Even opening the app is a pain in the ass cause most of the times it just force close out tincore. Plus, the 2 triggers buttons R2 and L2 are unusable in tincore.
Most of times, I learned how to use apps by tinking around for about a few minutes. I have been playing around with Tincore for a week now and still clueless about how to use it. wish there was a dumb-down tutorial on it.
Whats new on incoming
3.0.3 (beta)
Application autostart option (checkbox in OPERATION section) This only works if app is installed in internal memory.
Immediate minimize on start (checkbox in OPERATION section)
Application starts without root in BASIC MODE ONLY. You will need to activate the IME and ONLY KEY MODES are available. For now you should be able to use BT, image, accelerometers and *SOME* USB gamepads as input devices. I accept donations of USB or BT controllers to increase support.

Generic USB HID controller supported games.

Hi
I recently got USB OTG cable and a few controllers but I am unable (more than 2) to find good games where my controllers work.
So I am looking for:
a) 2-player games that support USB controllers and remapping
b) A app that allows to remap controller keys system wide - Tincore Keymapper
If someone could provide some games or a app it would be so nice.
Only ones I have found are Bombsquad and Badland.
EDIT: Solved b)

Ultimate Guide To Play PC Games on Android (NO ROOT) (NVIDIA USERS ONLY)

Have you ever wanted to play pc games with stunning graphics on your android device?
Now you can!
Requirements
1. Computer with Nvidia Graphics card (Supported: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 600/700/800/900 series desktop or mobile GPU (GT-series GPUs won't work))
2. Android device & pc should be connected to the same wireless network.
3. Nvidia Geforce Experience must also be installed!
Devices Supported
All devices running Android 4.1 & above
Procedure
Download "Moonlight Game Streaming" app from the Google Play Store.
Make sure that your PC & Android device are connected to the same wireless network (Ethernet recommended).
Open Geforce Experience in your Pc
Open the app on your Android device
Add i.p address of your pc.
Select Your Pc in the app & Pair.
Select the game that you want to stream from the app.
Wait for the game to start.
Most controllers will work just fine, but the following have been tested:
Xbox 360 wired/wireless
Xbox One wired (via Moonlight's built-in USB driver)
PS3 wired (with Sixaxis Enabler app) or wireless (with SixAxis Controller app)
PS4 wired via USB
MOGA controller (see below)
MOGA controller users:
If your controller has a switch with A and B, it must be switched to B to be used for streaming. If you have no switch, use the MOGA Universal Driver app.
Note for SixAxis users:
Use SixAxis in "Native Gamepad" mode for Moonlight. The default button mapping needs to be adjusted to match the standard controller layout for streaming.
