[Q] Gamepad keymapping - General Questions and Answers

Hi there! Is there any program/app that let's you connect your gamepad to play games and allows you to map parts from the screen to certain buttons without root?
Something similar with this guy's www[.]youtube[.]com/watch?v=GwrGpVquGyo,but i do not want to root my device.

Check out the Wiimote app I was going to post the link but it will not let me yet.

Remote Controllers for Android ?

I was interested in getting a remote control specifically for gaming on my Nexus One. Anyone have any idea? i.e. bluetooth remotes/usb remotes etc....(I would like to have a usb conntected remote unless the bluetooth ver can use a Wiimote or a PS3 remote ...but any is acceptable)...
please advise me, I searched and I do not see anything mentioned except for a thread asking if the WiiMote can be used with only one response saying "+1"...
Any1 have any ideas/insight?

There is an app to use a Wii controller for your Android phone. Search the market.

Yes I know but I was wondering about ps3 Bluetooth controler, I hijacked this thread after searching...
I think using a mixture of this.

(which you use to fool the Sixaxis into connecting to your phone)
with ??
will get it working.
the top part is only half the battle there needs to be something on the phone to undestand the HID input it will get from the Sixaxis.
so what we need is something like....
Wii Controller IME (Found on market and Appbrain.com)
but for Sixaxis.
the best source I have found for information about Sixaxis + Mobiles
is above and The sixaxis with the HD2 look it up on youtube. video is called "PS3 Sixaxis on HTC HD2 using Fpsece"
So with the best will in the world it is very very possible to achieve.
you just need someone who isn't in there 3rd week of Android ownership and only in there infancy of Android development like me.
PS sorry I haven't Linked to information outside of XDA it is due to a restriction on my User account as i'm new. but I think with google you should be able to find all the relevant pages I have mentioned.
PS3 Paired with Android
I am also very interested in this. Does anybody know how to use a PS3 controller to control an android device?
Any updates on this in the past few months?

[REQ] App to use android phone as a game controller

hello all. I have been searching around for an app that would allow me to use my android phone as a remote to play games on my honeycomb tablet.
The idea use for the app would be for playing accelerometer based games such as need for speed on the tablets that is inconvenient otherwise. if there's already a similar app, please point me to it. thanks
probe this.

[Q] Any way to emulate Nvidia shield / xbox / ps3 controller ?

Hello,
I have recently tried and succeeded to make Portal and Half Life 2 work on my OnePlus One (I can't tell how because it's illegal and against the rules of the forum I think, do your own research). The only problem is, I need the Nvidia Shield controller, or a ps3 / xbox / or any other android-supported controller, as there are no touch controls. My problem is that I don't have any controller of this type (except a Wiimote which doesn't work with Android kitkat). Here is my question : is there an app / overlay which can simulate a physical controller so I can play it without a physical controller ? I know it's quite hard, but I'm pretty desperate, as I can look at the beautiful menu screen, but am not able to control it. Does anyone have an idea ?
Thanks in advance.
Cm doesn't support wiimote? I thought they did.
Wrote you a pm, but it's for using the controller, sorry.

Look into the sixaxis app. I know it supported ps3 / wii motes in the past. I wouldn't see it going away now.

Thanks for your answers. Maybe CM supports the Wiimote, but at least it seems that the Wiimote doesn't work with these games. I think they need a classic controller mapping.

[Q] Would it be possible to simulate gyroscope with controller?

Hello there,
I build myself a vr headset (google's cardboard) for my phone so I could play around with some vr apps. Sadly enough most of these apps require a gyroscope. What a tragedy...
I started thinking, can't I just use a remote controller as a gyroscope, for example a wii or a ps3 controller? But I couldn't find any app supporting gyroscope control.
My real question is, if this would be possible, at what level would we need to build this app? Could it be done with the simple android library? Or do we need to dive into more advanced rooted solutions? Or maybe even edit our rom to make this work.
Anyway, this does sound like a fun project which I would like to spend some time in, if any of you have some tips or ideas on how to approach this, honnestly I have no idea how I would make this as I have never actually developed anything that required root components.
Thank you!

Galaxy S3 mapping and Bluetooth Problems.

Hi XDA community,
Hi everyone,
I have a rooted Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-19300 running android 4.3. Now here are my problems.
#1. I successfully installed Tincore Keymapper and the PS SIXAXIS apps, and I can apply mapping profiles in both apps, and both apps register my controllers, but when I try to use them in a game, nothing happens. And I know my controllers are not broken (Works with Dead Triggers Controller setup).
#2. I saw videos on youtube where people easily connected a PS3 or PS4 controller directly with their non SONY phone, even an S3. My S3 can read my PS3/4 controllers (Via BlueTooth), but not pair with or use them. So, is there a way to fix that; maybe update the Bluetooth or it's driver?
I reeeally would like these things fixed on my phone, please help.
Got the exact same problem with the SIXAXIS CONTROLLER app,the controller registers wirelessely,I've created profile for the Shadow Fight 2 game but it simply won't work+when switching to the S8XAXIS CONTROLLER app,the profile is set to NONE while before starting the game was selected the game's profile.I've been troubling for days and can't find a solution anywhere in the web or youtube.. My phone is GS4 GT-i9505 Jellybean 4.3.
cheers.
