Xbox/PS3 Controller right stick?

I've been googling for help with this for the past two weeks and coming up with nothing: is there a tweak or setting to enable function of the right analog stick on PS3 and Xbox 360 controllers? Having just the left is fine for cordy, but I need the right for c-buttons on n64oid. Anyone out there have any info on this?

I've had the same problem and haven't come up with a fix yet using my old Six Axis via usb cable. I've been using the a classic wiimote instead for now. Getting ready to try the new Sixaxis controller app to see if it will work better pairing the controller up via bluetooth instead of usb.

I've tried it myself. I works on the same principle as the Wiimote pairing app, except I think it piggybacks on the PS3 controller drivers native to android which leads to the d-pad, right, and left stick all getting treated at the same button presses. The end result, in my testing, was that moving the right stick left triggered a right analog, right-c, and right d-pad all at once, which is problematic to say the least.
Did that explanation make sense?

So even with the sixaxis controller app, you still can't map the right analog stick?

the d-pad, right stick, and left stick all register as a single d-pad, make sense?

Yeah, thanks for clarifying.
By chance what controller are you using, is it a Dualshock 3, or just an older sixaxis or a third party made?
I've tried 2 different sixaxis controllers over usb (Both are from when the ps3 originally came out) and a logitech controller with a dongle, none worked.
I've read in other threads in the forum after 3.1 came out and it seemed like they were lots who it worked fine for, so don't know what they were doing different

The sixaxis controller app has settings that allow for the left and right analog sticks to be programmed separately. The trick is that by default they are set to mirror each other. Just open the app, hit the menu button, go to input settings and scroll all the way to the bottom. I changed my right stick to A, B, C, D so that it didnt interfere with the other buttons.
I have been happily playing Goldeneye 64 with dual analog controls a la Halo for a few days now and love it. I even made a mini setup tutorial if youre interested http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16442843#post16442843
p.s. for what its worth I'm using a plain jane SixAxis minus rumble. Got it dirt cheap on eBay since Transformer cant send rumble commands anyway.

Just to add: After you change the controller configuration in Sixaxis controller, you need to disconnect then reconnect the controller for the new configuration to take effect. I have it working fine on my transformer.

Thanks, I was going to ask about that. Now my sixaxis is my go to controller.
I'd still like to get the right stick working while the controller's plugged in. Having true analog response for the left stick combined with c-buttons would be gaming nirvana. anyone have any luck with that?

not quite sure what you mean as your wording is kind of hard to read but anyhow
Xbox wireless- you need pc dongle then it will work
Xbox wired- plug and play it will work
Ps3 wireless- download sixaxis app from market and set that up
Ps3 wired- plug it in and it will work
Remapping controls hit settings then gamepad

i did plug the ps33 controller to the dock and when i turn on the controller it just turns on my ps3. it does not work with shadow gun. when i go to settings then game pad how do i map it exatly? should i unplug my ps3? its not just plug and play

when you plug it in it should just start controlling the tablet maybe try turning off controller then plugging it in.
Or download the sixaxis app and do what it says there probobly something to do with bluetooth syncing

that app is for bluetooth right? just using usb. im. so confused. let me mess with it. i google jow to and nowhere does it say how just says it can

does the xbox wired controller work? having issues

Hi, got my OTG cable today and tried plugging in my wired xbox controller. The lights flash on it but its not recognising any button presses. Anyone know if it works?
if not would a cheap USB controller work?

Try using an app called USB/bt joystick center they have a test version.

USB connected but not found

I connect a digital camera to my Note 10.1 (jelly bean) using a Samsung USB connector. The USB device is detected and a window opens with the contents of the device. Works great. When I'm finished, I tap the USB icon to safely remove the device. Later, if I reconnect the device, the USB Connected message is displayed, but no window with the contents opens. The file manager doesn't list the device. I can't get to the contents of the device unless I reboot and try again. This is repeatable.
Is there a way to reset the USB connection, find the device in "My Files", or get to the USB contents without rebooting between uses? Thanks for any ideas,
K.

You may have to re-boot the tablet.

Correct, rebooting works, but is that the only way? I hope not.

Try to connect the camera to the adapter first then connect to the tablet. I've had the same issue with some other devices and that fixed the problem.

I have the same problem and i get around it by running USB host diagnostics app. It an app from chainfire and its free on the market.

Thanks. I downloaded the USB app and I'm still having the same problem, I'll keep trying. BTW, turning the USB on before connection made no difference.
Sent from my GT-N8013 using xda app-developers app

Problem solved. I uninstalled Avast Mobile. Now, I can reconnect the USB as many times as I want and the file window opens up each time. This is the behavior I expect.
Thanks all.

Dualshock 4 support

So I am having problems getting the PS 4 Dualshock 4 controller to work via Bluetooth. Pairing succeeds without any problems and it even gets recognised as a controller. But none of the commands work. On the other hand if I connect the controler via an USB OTG cable it works flawless.
So my question is, whether anyone has been successful in using the Dualshock 4 controller via Bluetooth?

No sollutions yet?

I got it to work through BT. Had to use the Bluetooth Auto Connect app for it to work properly though because of the major input lag.

@diego429 But how? It doesn't recognise any button presses.

what are you trying to use the ds4 for? what apps are you using?

Mostly I want to play emulators, Snes9x, Mupen64 and Dolphin.
As I said earlier, I can connect the DS4 via BT just fine, it shows that it's connected, but it doesn't register any button presses. All the emulators have controller setup screens where you can assign what each button does. And also here no keypress get registered.

@diego429 can you please tell me if you really got DS4 working on the Mate 9? Rooted?
Sent from my MHA-L29 using Tapatalk

@diego429 I'm having the same problem as @MaTiCeK- where the controller is connected via BT and it registers as a controller but not even pressing buttons moves anything onscreen even while not in games. By any chance is your phone rooted or are you using an application to make it work. My phone is the Huawei Honor 7X and I tried it on a Honor 6X aswell and the problem seems to persist on Huawei devices since I tried it on a Samsung and it worked without flawlessly
