USB Controllers... Y U NO WORK!? - HTC One S

'Kay Im getting quite irritated on this now. Ive been trying to get any of my controllers working on the S for the past 3 days without success.
Of course I got USB OTG via the bricked kernel, and its enabled.
All controllers are found by the device in dmesg, their IDs are correct etc.
BUT, none of them actually works!
I have 3 controllers,
nr1 is apissold logitech wingman which works for everything (awesome test-pad tbh). With that it reacts to left/right on the homescreens, but I cant bind any buttons in any emu (note: this controller works fine on the TF101 and Novo7)
nr2 is an Xbox controllerS (yes, the original xbox). Doesnt work at all. deviceID shows up and it gets power, but no reaction from button presses.
nr3 is a wireless 360 controller, same thing there - both the adapter and controller shows the ID correctly.
Ive tried to find them in the "USB/BT Joycenter" app, which seems to be the only one capable of this sort of thing...
That thing doesnt find any connected device, at all. I read that I could add missing devices in a file on the SD card... But of course, all the IDs for all 3 controllers were already there...
Ive also tried this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1792531
Adding the profiles for the wireless xbox360 as instructed... Nope, not working...
Can this be a kernel issue? 4.0.4 bug? Crappy phone? For god sake all I want is to play some SNES with a controller
Sorry for the topic, been reading too much meme's lately, and Im feeling very much like this:

In three days of apparent searching you didn't find the game klip? Six axis controller app? Read the billions of posts by happy people using PS3 controllers?
Don't blame the hardware!

Guys.... The PS3 controller is bluetooth... Sixaxis also only supports bluetooth as far as I can see.

As far I know it don't use bluetooth when plugged in.

It does, it just uses the cable to sync. At least thats what google says. :/

.... Yes? And? That is completely irrelevant. it just checks for USB OTG support and a few other irrelevant things.
Edit: Lets make one thing clear: I dont care about your working PS3 and Wii controllers, thats not the question.. The question is regarding a bog-standard PnP controller (that works on both my tablets PnP) and Xbox controllers.

[Q] has anyone linked a keyboard via usb or bluetooth yet??

im determined to get down to some fallout 1 and 2 on the go on my dhd and iv had a look into the bluetooth keyboard routem just seems a bit much to spend 30 odd gbp on a keyboard online to discover it wont work on my DHD.
Pls someone put me out of my misery and direct me to a bluetooth (or micro usb) keyboard and mouse set up that will work on the DHD
i will be most grateful
meh
How are you playing Fallout 1 and 2!?!?
You will need scripts to get HiD working. N900 can use keyboard and mouse via BT (and USB now) but you need to get scripts, and I'm guessing this would be the same.
Look and see if anyone has it running on Desire or Z. Should be easy to bring them over.

This is my point I'M NOT PLAYING IT YET but this is down to the fact I have no keyboard or mouse yet. And as for how I would run the Games I wud use a dos box style emulator then play the Games. Th insides of the dhd specs show up as good as my mums desktop which I play fallout on so I imagine if u can get doom ported to Android fallout will be no buggy either. Can u imagine the joy of long train journeys with fallout to keep u occupied. As for the second paragraph of ur post I have no idea about any of that stuff. I have seen a MINI bt keyboard saying it is desire Hd compatible but until its confirmed I ain't parting with my cash.

Cyanogen includes a program called Bluekeyboard JP
I have used my logitech bluetooth keyboard with mouse trackpad designed for the PS3 with it before.
Detects it as an HID device and gives a keyboard option in input settings. Works farely well.
I have tried all the other bluetooth keyboard apps in the market and none of them enabled me to use it until I used cyanogen.

Using Freedom Pro Bluetooth keyboard with DHD
To original poster for this thread,
http://www.htcdesirehdforum.com/htc...tooth-keyboard-for-android/new/?topicseen#new
Australian poster in the above thread maintains she has got this keyboard to work. I have not bought one yet so cannot confirm that it works myself.
See item here:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Freedom-Pro...IWJ6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1294377170&sr=8-1
Good luck
M
Thanks Midgeslayer, that looks very cool. Just friggen expensive in South Africa. Just under $200
The safest option would be I'd say using a BT Keyboard like the Freedom Pro or maybe trying out Bluetooth JP or other software on another BT Keyboard.
The cheapest way if you don't own a bluetooth keyboard would be to use a USB Keyboard and create an adaptor or USB Dongle as follows. Again I'm still too nervous about this. If someone with a better understanding of electronics and the Desire HD could explain to me if solderding up this USB Dongle which shorts a pin on the USB connector is safe then I'll do it... The parts can be bought from dealextreme.com or ebay for next to nothing. Mini USB Keybaords are also very cheap.
Here's the link:
http://gigaom.com/mobile/how-to-add-a-usb-keyboard-to-an-android-phone/
Which do you think would be better for saving battery, a USB keyboard or a Bluetooth keyboard? I am wondering if any real difference as I am planning on doing this for full days of lectures and typing notes.
Possible Blueinput solution
I can't say about the DHD, but you might like to check at the teksoftco forum
I am running their Blueinput driver with an Apple Wifi Keyboard on a Nexus One v 2.2.1 OK. Only snag for me is that the keyboard has a Norwegian layout and Blueinput treats it as a US one..
Mvh
According to their website Orange UK are about to offer the freedom universal bluetooth keyboard for a measly £7. Does anyone know if this version of the keyboard is compatible with the DHD in the same way as the Freedom Pro?

n64oid

Just wanted to let everyone who was curious know, n64oid runs so well on the transformer. I plugged it into my tv and played some mariokart and super smash brothers, and it ran flawlessly!
What kind of control scheme? It'd be neat to turn the Transformer into a little Emulator hub that you can connect to a TV and use a wiimote with.

Do you know if that lets you connect more than one at a time? I'm assuming that's not possible...
I've been using the same setup with the wii remote app. Super smash bros runs almost flawlessly - just has some missing eyes on some of the characters. The free wiimote app does allow you to use more than one controller (and even the nunchuck), but n64oid doesn't have local multiplayer capabilities. I heard that local multiplayer should work on snesoid and some other emulators though.
I'll second everything said above. N64oid and snesoid both work brilliantly with wiimote controller app. I am using a classic controller plugged into the wiimote and it is perfect. Played mario kart, zelda link to the past, super mario 64, spindizzy,zelda ocarina of time.
What version are you guys using? Mine runs some games okay and others are very broken. Also, it's still missing from the market, correct?
V. 1.1.2
Can't remember where I downloaded it from . It was off a link from another site. Try googling it.

It's not just you or your version; most Roms don't work at all.
I'm using v1.1.4 and the roms I've tried work well. especially with wiiremote
the question now is where can we find the cheapest wiress old school controller. i havent got a wii so that leaves me with buying a new setup
Im using 1.1.4 and it seems to keep crashing about about a minute into a game.
Just wanted to add that it was failing because the roms were in the dropbox folder. I put them on the SD card and all is well. Also wanted to add that this app is AMAZING withheld dock because you can configure the keys. Wasd configuration is fun with Mario Kart 64
Here's my current setup. Using the Wiimote Classic attachment with the keys mapped into N64oid.

He claims to have heard from the developer and says that the dev is trying to have it back to the market by mid May.
"I am trying to get it back in the middle of May. Thanks!"
If true, this is great news.

Sick, well jealous! Can't wait til my dock comes, think I'll buy a controller too (don't have a wii). Oh and I hope the app is back up soon! Don't have that either.

I briefly tried Goldeneye, Star Fox, and Smash Bros and they were all pretty laggy. Is anyone else having this issue?
Is anyone else having very skippy audio issues or is it just a bad rom? I've tried multiple Ocarina of Time roms but all seem to suffer the same audio skips. The video is, however, very smooth and wonderful to play!
Maybe this is resolved when I hook it up via HDMI?

Android Phone as TF Game Controller

I'm wondering if there is an app that exists where you can use your android phone as a game controller to play games on the TF? The TF is a little bit uncomfortable for playing games like Zelda for extended periods of time. It would be nice to know that I can just grab out my phone and prop my TF up to start playing.
I know that using an xbox controller, Wii controller, or PS3 controller via bluetooth or wired works but the problem is I only have a wired xbox 360 controller and I don't own the TF docking station (yet).
yo dawg i herd you like android, so we controlled an
android with an android so you can game while you game.

Im hoping this comes along eventually. I remember this on iPad + iPhone. You could install a snes emulator on iPad and the controll app on the iphone and use it that way. You had to be jailbroken for it to work because the app was in cydia.
In addition, using your TF w/ Dock as a PS3 keyboard...

Android phone as game controller on pc
In order to use your android device as a game controller on your PC you need 2 applications. One for your android device called "agamepad.apk", and another program for your PC called "PPJoySetup". PPJoySetup is currently being made compatible with Windows 7 64-bit, and perhaps a few other OS. Here are the instructions on how to install and use, as well as a few links to the directions and pertaining to this subject:
aGamepad allows you to use your Android based phone as gamepad for Windows. It supports three analog axes and up to 32 buttons (currently implemented 4).
Special thanks to:
Tsutomu SEKI
Windows side of application is based on his sources.
Deon van der Westhuysen
For writing such a great application as PPJoy.
How to use
Download aGamepad.apk and install it on your device
Download PPJoySetup and install it on your PC
Download controller.dll and extract it somewhere
After installing PPJoySetup run Configure Joysticks (Programs->Parallel Port Joystick)
Press Add
Make sure that Parallel port field is set to Virtual Joysticks. Press Add
Wait for drivers to be installed
Choose currently added joystick from list and press Mapping
Press Next
Choose any number of axes (max 3)
Choose number of buttons (currently max 4)
Set POV to 0 and press Next
Make sure there is for each axis set Analog N and press Next
Press Next and Finish
Press Done
Now everything is ready for use
Run PPJoyDLL (Programs->Parallel Port Joystick)
Choose DLL type to Callback DLL interface and press Load DLL
Point the dll you saved earlier
Now run aGamepad on your phone (assuming that you have connected with your PC using wifi)
Enter IP address of your PC and press Ok
If you see in PPJoyDLL's window line "Sending joystick updates to PPJoy" it means that everything works.
Apparently, I cannot post any links because this website fears spam links, but you can google it. I just read that PPJoySetup 0.8.4.5 supports 64bit, there might also be .6 out now.
Enjoy.
MoffoCobain that is useful but not quite what the OP was after... the ability to use an android phone to control an android tablet.
Would be interested in doing this as well

How do I update my Bluetooth stack to use this app?

Game controller compatibility

Been messing around with various setups for game controllers on the 7.0 Plus and thought I'd share.
First off, Samsung has not included the normal USB game controller drivers that e.g. Asus has started putting in their tablets. ICS might fix that, but right now, connecting something directly does nothing.
There are plenty of apps out there to try to help this. USB/BT JoyCenter is an app that promises to help get USB controllers working, however it did nothing for my PS3 sixaxis controller, which the developer says is due to missing USB apis from Samsung's side (I am using the official USB connection kit, if anyone was wondering how I got anything USB connected).
Bluetooth connectivity for PS3 controllers require an app that in turn requires root to use, so unless you're rooted, forget that.
So to the upside: Wiimotes work! There are a couple of apps that help get them working, of which I've found Wiimote Controller to be most reliable. It will connect to the wiimote over BT and convert button presses to keyboard buttons that can be mapped in games that support that. Wiimote attachments also work, and I'm using a Wii Classic Pro controller plugged into the wiimote to give me a button setup that is identical to the ps2/3 and hence have enough buttons for any console emulator. The downside is that the analog stick isn't analog - i.e. they work as 4 button d-pads - but otherwise it works great.

I can't say for certain. I just ran the sixaxxis test app using a friends PS3 controller.
The analogue sticks work on the PS3 controllers, but they are both mapped the same as the D-pad. It works great in Fpse. I haven't monkeyed with the settings enough to get it to work with nesoid/snesoid yet, but it should work (i can configure the controller in the 'noid settings, but haven't sussed how to make it work in game yet).

Xbox controller works out of the box with USB otg adapter, USB joystick center app and the USB wireless adapter for connecting Xbox controllers to a pc
Last but not least, Sixaxis Controller works. It requires root, but the Bluetooth hardware/software in the tab is compatible. With this system you can map buttons to part of the screen, emulating touch, making it possible both to have e.g. full analog controls in emulators AND map controls for games that only have touch controls
I'm assuming it does, but can verify if the sixaxis controller works with the onlive app?

Well since you can make it work with any app that has touch controls, it naturally does you can likely make it work with direct button mapping too

I think there is a key mapping tutorial for that game on the USB/BT Joystick Center developer's forum, find it via the link in the description on Market. Only played with GTA briefly, to see that it worked
An add-on to USB/BT Joystick Center has been released that allows for touch emulation on rooted devices. basically means that now you can get controllers other than the ps3 one to have a working analog stick and work with games that only have touch buttons. works with the 7.0 plus since the latest update to the add-on, had it running perfectly with an x360 controller
Nice find might have to try that out.

Got the moga power pro is good and the samsung game pad which is a bit rubbish, ps3/4 sixaxis pads needs the extra driver to use like the sixaxis controller app on play store for $ but still cheapest option as u own a controller already.

I'm glad its not just me, I bought the PS3 controller specifically for my note 4, so I didn't know if the controller was bad, or what. I even tried the xposed module bluetooth hack that others have referenced for using with the note 3, but still doesn't work unless I leave it plugged in to the OTG USB, and then it kindof works (I can move the cursor around with the controller), but still isn't detected properly by the sixaxis app.
If anyone gets this working please post.
I'm actually using a Nyko Gamepad, no issues and it also acts as a mouse for the Note 4 and under $25 on ebay new
I caved and just bought the moga hero at target, it wirks awesome and holds the note4 nicely. Probably too small for those with big hands, but its working for me in everything ive tried including emulators.
I hope the author fixes this. I assume its a 4.4.4 issue?
I am using the NES30 Gamepad and I have the moga pro as well. Both seem to be working fine. ( http://www.nes30.com/ )
Is this gaming controller any good?

And does it works with the Galaxy Note 4?
I've used the Sonly PS3 DualShock controller via USB OTG cable. Since the phone wasn't rooted, Sixaxia Controller app does not work.
I played a little GTASA and it worked as expected.
I've had the SixAxis app working with bluetooth. Phone's an Exynos version (if that makes a difference) and is rooted.
I can't remember exactly what I did to get it to work, I think I had to plug it in using the USB cable first then is seemed to pick it up on bluetooth. No xposed modules needed, just SixAxis the controller and a usb OTG cable.
I got the ps3 controller working through Otg, but that's it. I emailed the sixaxis dev to work on this. It will not detect by Bluetooth.
What games are you guys playing were you are wanting a controller?
Yup, for the DS3, I can confirm it works. Just plug and play. I pluged it up, and booted Dead Trigger 2. Works great! Here's all you need and the link.

I've had the SixAxis app working with bluetooth. Phone's an Exynos version (if that makes a difference) and is rooted.

I haven't been able to get Sixaxis controller to work via blue tooth. I confirmed, via the PC pairing tool, the controller has the phone's blue tooth address. It just doesn't connect.
It should be noted, on Dancing Pixels website
Important - Due to the non-standard protocol that the controllers use to communicate with the host, this application requires root access. Additionally, it is incompatible with most HTC devices and some newer Samsung devices. This is due to the required bluetooth protocol not being implemented on these devices. We are actively looking into a work around, but currently the only solution is to install a custom firmware, such as Cyanogenmod, that supports the required protocols.

I haven't been any to find if anyone has reliably found to a way to get it working via bluetooth.

Up to now I've tried Real Racing 3, GTA and PicaSim, but according to my previous experience many, many games will work. Favourites of mine being various emulators (I'm sure the PSP emulator will work very nicely with the power in this phone).

I was hoping the controller was in my rucksack - I'd have tested it with various connections/methods with a fresh rom if I did. If I get the chance I'll do it tonight.

Ummm, let's see! Every emulator from Atari to psp, android games like dead trigger, all 3 gtas, and a bunch of other android games.

And using the touch emulator settings you can map controls for any touchscreen game, in theory.
I completely forgot to test this last night - if I remember I'll try again tonight and see if I can determine what's needed. I think root is probably the only main pre-requisite, and I can't comment on whether the snapdragon version has any differences either.
I am using a PS3 controller with mine just fine, I got some cheapo case to mount it to a gameclip.
