The Jelly Bean update for the ATT HOX now gives us usb otg. Lots of things seem to work, but my wired xbox controller does not work. When I plug it in, the green ring flashes once and that's it. It flashes again every minute or so.

So I have searched the net endlessly for a solution to hooking up a wired XBOX 360 controller to the EVO 3D but have had no luck. Many post say that only curtian Kernels work. Well I have done s-off, downgrades of hboots to get JB roms w/ attached kenels, all types of kernels with stick mounts (which do work for external storage ) but nothing works. I have also bought the power micro usb to female usb with female usb out to power source to power on the controller. All the videos on You Tube all have either a tablet or a S3 they are hooking up to. I have also trIed the Joy2touch app on Play but nothing recognizes the controller. So is it possible?I haven't seen anything other then a mouse and keyboard hooked up to one (which interest me none) I'm a gamer. I'm not a noob or anything but a break down of what steps you took would make it that much easier if you can. I'll be checking this thread daily as I have given up hope.
A BREAK DOWN OF WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I CONNECT THE 360 CONTROLLER:
I plug it all up with the charger before I plug into phone.
The light on the power button on controller stays lit.
I plug micro usb into phone and power botton light starts to blink but only blinks, not rapidly, just blinks every split second.
Stickmount cannot mount, Joy2Touch usb search no find, I even tried sixaxis app (knowing its not PS3), still nothing.
Running NegaBlueRom rl-106 w/ BigWilly ButterToast 1.72 kernel, but like i said, have tried ALL JB's out till this date and almost every ICS ROM
I have tried MAC, ButterToast, and all the kernels that come with every JB rom out not, yes I have flashed EVERY JB ROM. I'm on a mission lol.
Hi there!
I've got my SIII running CM 10.2, and tonight my USB OTG cable came in the mail. Hooray! Except, when I tried it with my wired Xbox 360 controller, it didn't work. It's receiving power, because the Xbox logo blinks, but that's all it does. The adapter did work with my keyboard and a 64GB flash drive, however, so the cable isn't messed up. What setting do I need to change or app do I need to install to get it working?
Thanks for any help I can get!
Tried a couple more devices, and my Logitech controller won't work either, but an SD card reader will. There must be some option that I'm missing here to enable these controllers.
Bah. I cannot figure this crap out for anything.
i want to use the controller for apps like fpse and stuff.
already tried USB BT Joycenter but that wasnt working, the controller was connecting and showing as First player but there was no input and i cant get any updated version of the app cause i cant find it on the appstore.
the other thing i tried was editing the controller layout files, but they werent even on the tablet.
is there anything else i can do to get this to work?
I tried to connect my xbox 360 wireless controller via dongle aswell. it kinda connects but i am not really sure. the moment i let the dongle and the controller search for each other they seem to find each other straight away, but the led ring just keeps blinking and wont find a channel so to speak.
i followed sleeplessninjas guide and copied over the vendor_45e_product_0291/0719.kl and kcm but it didnt change the controller problem.
the controller is not recognized by any app i tried nor does the system itself show any response to the controller input.
i can connect a mouse or a usb flashdrive without a problem plug n play out of the box. but the controller wont get recognized.
i read on a shop review that the problem would be that the lenovo tab2 a10 doesnt have driver for the controller shipped with it.
my question would be: would cooking up my own android rom help and would i even be able to make it work on the device, i keep reading about lenovo devices being *****y about bootloader and such.
and then again cooking up ones own android is kinda of a longshot for an android beginner like me. need to read more. propably doable but are there even drivers available for the device fitting the system?
would appreciate someone shedding a bit of light in all the confusion cheers
Hey, I've just found out I can connect lots of USB devices with my new unrooted S7, and after trying to plug in the wireless hub for X360 controllers, it just won't connect to my controller. Can I do anything to make this work or do I need to root the phone first?
Thanks
My 360 controller isn't working either, it works on every other android device I have, including old phones. Is this the work of samsung ?

Mine works perfectly when I connect my controller via OTG USB.. Are you talking about the attachment that came with the phone (that is intended to transfer stuff from your old phone to the new phone?)
I pretty much plugged mine in using that, all I had to do was to configure the buttons in my game I wanted to play. HOWEVER, my 360 controller is wired. Maybe you could try getting a wired one rather than a wireless one.
BTW root is not possible for all US variants (bootloader is locked). Only the Exynos model is rootable.
Mine is the UK variety whichever chip that is. I'm using an otg adaptor that works fine on my other devices but not the s7.

[[[[[[FIXED!!!]]]]two things but i really recommend the second option i will explain.. FIRST THING IS FIRST MAKE SURE UR PHONES USB DEBUGGING IS ON... EASY TO TURN IT ON.. GO TO SETTING , TAP ON ABOUT PHONE, TAP ON SOFTWARE INFORMATION TAP ON BUILD INTILL U SEE THE MESSAGE U ARE SO MANY TAPS AWAY FROM BECOMING A DEVELOPER. KEP TAPPING AND WELLA U R NOW A DEVELOPER .. BACK TO SETTINGS SCROLL ALL THE WAY TO THE BOTTOM SELECT DEVELOPER OPTIONS TURN ON THEN SCROLL DOWN TILL U SEE TURN ON USB DEBUGGING. PS U SHOULD HAVE THIS ON ANY WAY CAUSE IF U LOSE UR PHONE U WONT BE ABLE TO USE FIND DEVICE TO LOCATE UR PHONE.. ALSO WELL U R IN THE DEVELOPER OPTIONS GO AHEAD AND TURN OF WINDOW ANIMATION TRANSITION ANIMATION AND ANIMATOR DURATION SCALE YA DONT NEED THEM AND WATCH HOW MUCH FASTER UR PHONE WILL BE .. OK NOW WHAT YA ALL COME FOR (1) u can download usb/bt joycentre 2018 its green pic of joystick and following this video on how to use it..
.. now im jus saying but i have a generic x-box game pad controller i purchesed from walmart its corded no bluetooth option and tried this with the s7 edge and no luck the app said usb not reconized. u might have luck with a real xbox controller tho cause they support bluetooth and there is an option in the app to do the patch via blue tooth. U DO NOT NEED A ROOTED PHONE FOR THIS.. NO ROOT!! i dont have a ps3 controller to see if it works but the guy in the video that is what he uses and it worked .. now heres the funny thing .. what i got to work was a knock of ps3 controller off amzone.. i use an otg cable plugged it in to the controller plugged the other end into my phone and works like a charm as soon as i plugged it in.. now if it doesnt work give it a second or hold the ps3 home button down for a sec .. i swear this works. https://www.amazon.ca/Controller-Wi...2A9WRGN9BAB&psc=1&refRID=T73ZTYBBQ2A9WRGN9BAB.. now heres the funny part and was so freaking frustrating my walmart wired xbox game pad works on my new samsung tablet a7 but the ps3 controller wont.. the ps3 controller works on my s7 edge but the xbox controller wont. i was about to do bAck flips lol when i decided to just try a ps3 knock off controller and batta bing batta boom COD HERE I COME LMAO.. HOPE THIS HELPS MANG
ok so the wireless version of the xbox 360 controller connected with a cable to the controller then to the phone via the otg cable will not work, as it is not supported wireless, or a wireless controller with a cable attached to it.
only wired xbox 360 controllers will work.
Hi,
Back when I first got my phone, it was running Lollipop. One of the first things I tested was controller support with my PS4 controller. It connected fine. There was a slight bit of lag, but the app Bluetooth Auto Connect fixed that. However, after about 30 seconds of connection, the phone will disconnect the controller.
After updating to Marshmallow a while back, I decided to test out controller support again. And alas, I'm having the same issue. I can connect my phone to my Bluetooth speaker just fine, but controllers don't seem to be working. The last thing I want is to use an OTG cable.
