now that would be a killer app!
That's IR, right? Not the system's bluetooth?

this works as remote for most my home electronics
it's ir only and ir range of mine and most pda's is very very poor
PS3 uses propriatary bluetooth, no iR. So the only option right now is to buy the PS3 remote, unless someone can open the sony propriatary bluetooth.
PS has no iR, all works based on bluetooth, hence the question
Using a pocket pc as a bluray remote for PS3 over bluetooth would indeed be awesome.

id rather go the other way and use my dualshock 3 as a controller for my PPC emus
Any luck on this? There's gotta be a way to get them to sync up some how and allow control options.
This really will be useful, I mean how many people can controll their PS3 with their cellphones =] ?
I dont know much of how to make such an app but id gladly contribute with graphics and/or testing if someone has a way to do this.
I really don't think this would be possible or there would be bluetooth drivers for getting the SIXAXIS controller to work on the PC... there are drivers but you have to plug it in with the USB cable so obviously no one has found a way to dig into the bluetooth stack on the ps3.
EDIT: I'm sure it's "possible" but improbable based on my above statement
I have the logitech diNova which uses bluetooth to contol your pc and ps3

that's a keyboard right? that brings up an interesting concept! Just have the ppc bind to ps3 as a keyboard and make a little touch app that passes keystrokes?
I think the whole challenge here is to get the bluetooth on the ppc to accept connections as peripheral device services.
Another vote for awesome. I have a Logitech BT keyboard that I use on the PS3 and PC. The keyboard has full control over the PS3 including movie playback.
any news? i would really appreciate a keyboard emulator on pocket pcs using bluetooth. a special playstation 3 hack would be the burner.
I know you can connect your bluetooth headset to the PS3... Should be able to use on chat with friends but I've never tried.... Sony also released a headset for online games that can connect to mobiles so I wonder if anyone has tried connecting their sony remote to pc, would probably need drivers though to use properly if at all...

If you look at their website, it looks like that needs custom hardware that connects to your AV equipment. It doesn't really explain how it controls it.

It's possible and has been done. The SIXAXIS has been in use for a while now. You can even have the rumble/vibrate function (dualshock controllers) work on a PC recently.

Someone please come out with an app for ppcs!! Blackberries are about to have this product already.

Hello to all of you,
As i saw here are some impressive programmers at work and i wanted to ask how it can be done to rewrite a normal windows driver for windows mobile? I think it would be wonderful to use the ps3 controller as gamepad.
Im kinda new to the whole programming scene but ive got time and a strong will so if anybody could give me a little push at the start i will get to the goal more quickly.
Thanks for any advice!

if you could, it would be amazing, infact any controller to work with the phone would make me very happy. Especially when using the PS1 emulator.
However I stuggled to get my PS3 controller to work with my PC so getting to work on a phone?... dunno.
Tutorial to use your ps3 controller as gamepad on pc
i think it can not be that difficult but ill try
If I'm not totally wrong, I think I remember that die Experia X2 will can be used as a PS3-Controller and connect it directly with your PS3.
OK this migth not be your question, but is a bit similar maybe and maybe some have interests for that (I'm sure this option will be ported from the X2 to the HD2!)
microsoft & xbox
Windows Mobile + X box = Microsoft Portable Gaming Device controller.
Perhaps it could work with this driver here.

If you are interested in alternatives to the MSI or Chainpus BGP100 bluetooth gamepad, google search "modded by bacteria" go to the "work in progress" section of his forums, and search for the thread "Re-housed Bluetooth controller". The creator of the site, Bacteria, will be transplanting the innards of the BGP100 into an SNES controller. Previously, he has transplanted it into a PS1 controller. It seams feasible to DIY into almost any controller housing.
Any progress ? I think this would be an awesome thing, SNES on Android with a PS3 controller = NGP
Has anyone tried "Cobaltikus's" app called CobaltController? It'll allow you to connect either a ps3 controller or a wii remote to our windows mobile phones. You can find it HERE
Anyone have any luck with this yet?
Has anyone checked out motioninjoy?
I cant even get gamepro to work let alone anything else. The last 2 listed, where do i find those? they are not in market
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 a app to get ps3 bluetooth controler working on windows phones what are the chances of this happening on Android?
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.
showthread.php?t=689984
(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?
So I've got my Shield and I'm loving it. However, only about half of my games have Xinput controller support. So I'm trying to figure out how to get either Pinnacle Game Profiler or Xpadder to work with it. I've tried a few things, and I'm not quite getting there. Here's what I've tried:
- Setting up a Profile with Pinnacle for Xbox 360 controller and then launching Big Picture from the Shield. This didn't work (although it works with my regular Xbox 360 controller when not using the Shield).
- Adding Pinnacle Game Profiler as a program to Steam and then trying to launch it while connected with the Shield. It would not open while the Shield was connected to Steam. It did open in Big Picture while the Shield was not connected.
So that's about as far as I've gotten. I do have a few ideas, but I'm not sure how to implement them. One idea is to figure out how to add Xinput to a game. Basically setting up something like Pinnacle or Xpadder to "listen" for a connected Xinput-compatible controller and then activate the proper profile. The other idea is to try and get Windows to see the Shield's controller and then configure Pinnacle/Xpadder in the normal way. I've tried connecting the Shield to my PC with a USB cable, but it only mounts as a Media Drive and the controller feature is not detected by the computer. Someone on the Pinnacle forum suggested trying to find an App for Android that will connect the Shield to my PC as a controller. There are several Apps that can do something like this, but none that look like they would work with the physical buttons on the Shield (if someone knows of a good App, I'd be interested to try it).
So those are my thoughts and where I'm at. Any ideas on what I can try?
No ideas, but bumping for my support... the inability to map the controller to keyboard buttons is the biggest letdown of the system to me. So many awesome games I could be playing on it if we could just map with xpadder.
I'd pay good money to have mapping abilities... anyone feel like a bounty?
It should work in theory if you play through steam, right? Steam recognizes the controller as xinput. If you set it up manually from the PC it seems like it should work!

The problem is that the controller is only detected by the computer while you're in big picture.it disconnects as soon as you exit big picture.
Hi, does anyone knows how to make this controller work with the Galaxy S6?
When plugged in nothing happens. Tried pairing couple of times. Still nothing.
Tested the same setup on my GS5 and it connected right away...
I swear I thought I saw a vid before buying my S6 about how to pair a 360 controller to the S6, but after doing much searching I must have been mistaken :/. Really bummed that the S6 can't just straight up pair a controller with an OTG....my S3 did back then with no effort or root whatsoever -_-
Same here my logitech gamepad f310 also not working in otg but working in lg g2 flawlessly .
Having the same problem. Really frustrated after testing with 2 PS3 pads and one xbox 360 pad, all over OTG - no response at all from my S6. Tried 4 OTG cables now...
Doesn't work for me either, but works perfect with my nexus 5 and nexus 7. Did anybody manage to make it work on the s6?
Has anyone found a solution to this? How can it be recognised perfectly on all my other android devices but not my s6??
Solved on s6 active!
After about a week of trying, I have wireless 360 controllers working on my s6 active. I'm using a Microsoft 360 controller receiver and an otg cable. I had to find a legit USB BT Joy Center apk (not the gold version, it kept disconnecting my controller) and then I found an app called Lucky patcher that let me remove the license verification on the app, since it has been abandoned by the developer. No root required! It allows you to keymap, so I can use multiple 360 controllers for emulators (Mario kart tested), and I even used it to play games streaming from my computer with Moonlight. I have the modified apk file for anyone who wants it, or you can diy with my instructions above.

PM a link to download the modified apk please. I'll use it with my ps3 controller for the same game
The sixaxis app requires root.
Here's the youtube link to my tutorial.
