Has anyone tested a bluetooth gamepad with the Infinity yet, they they would recommend? Maybe the Phonejoy, or...?
I assume I want bluetooth so I can use it without having to have the dock or a USB adapter connected, but I'm not sure if there are any drawbacks to bluetooth over wired/or wireless USB. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

I'm sure the ps3 controller works since it does with the prime.

I use the sixaxis tool which requires root but I got my dualshock 3 paired and working in no time.
I hope it works right with the Wii Classic Controller, that's all I have until I get the dock and can plugin an Xbox controller (I wonder if the wireless adapter works?). The Classic controller usually works great on my phone.
Xbox Wireless Controller works with Shadowgun, Riptide, GTA and Death Trigger.
Just plug-in the wireless receiver into the dock, and push the xbox symbol on the controller.
After a while, the blinking changes, and you can use the controller.
Badly, it doesn't stop blinking alike when you connect it to a PC or an Xbox.
I also was able to connect PS3 controllers to the Infinity via sixaxis, the controller also worked with all the games i wrote î.
Unfortunately PS3 gamepad doesnt work via bluetooth. It works with TF300 though. I thought the same method of attaching via USB syncing with it and removing cable would work. I see PS3 controller in bluetooth paired devices in TF300, not in TF700.

PS3 Controller will work with root plus utils
I was able to get a PS3 DualShock controller to work via Bluetooth with my TF700T + dock and root.
I plugged the controller into the USB port and then used PS3 Controller Pairing Tool to set the Bluetooth MAC address and then start up Sixaxis Controller app (requires root) to get the bluetooth link working.

Yes, I know that. I used that config with my old Samsung 10.1, but I don't want to root TF700. With TF300 it works out of the box. Same company, 2 tablets with so similar specs, and what works in a recent model does not in a newer one. Hard to understand.

I have been using the Onlive Universal Wireless Controller. It is a really sold piece of hardware and works with most bluetooth devices. For some tabs though it will be detected incorrectly and leave you spinning around uncontrollably in games by default. However I found this fix on an Onlive forum which has worked perfectly for me. You will need root access in order to perform the fix.
"su
cd /system/usr/keylayout/
mount -o remount,rw /system
cp Vendor_045e_Product_028e.kl Vendor_2378_Product_100a.kl
exit
exit"
Enjoy!
Received a PhoneJoy today. Haven't played much yet, but pretty much unusable with Bluez.
Bought and installed USB/BT Joystick Center which makes wonders.
Currently I have a setup for shadowgun and fantasy drive.
I would LOVE to know if there is any site/forum that has user exports to download, so I could import it in the Joystick Center app for my phonejoy and specific game?
There is some work to be done initially as it seems, but had 0 problems after setting things up.
Currently I have some 20 games, not all are playable with gamepad, but still around 10-15 games for which i will have to find imports or i'll have to go through a hassle myself.
If anyone else has PhoneJoy maybe we can start Export/Import sharing here on this forum (new thread)
Anyone?
I've been through a bunch of controllers, and I really prefer the PS3 controller over the phone joy, onlive, etc. I was turned off in the beginning due to people continuously mentioning the sixaxis app, but after getting it set up, it really works well and it just adds one step before gaming.
I'll make it simple.
First Time Setup
===============================================================
1. You get the application from Play.
2. Run it.
3. Hit the start button in the app.
4. Connect controller via USB cable. (you need it anyway to charge the controller)
5. Hit Pair then hit OK button
6. Unplug the controller
7. Hit the PS3 Button on the controller
8. Wait ~10 seconds.
9. Paired and Done! Now you can game.
Each Time You Want to Game
================================================================
1. Start Sixaxis App
2. Press Start in App
3. Press PS3 button on Controller
4. Wait ~10 seconds.
5. Game!
The above "each time you want to game" takes 15 seconds of your life to use a quality controller, so its REALLY not a big deal.
Just, don't buy PS3 controllers from ebay =) You have been warned!
I'm using ps3 controller over Bluetooth with six axis tool. Go to there official site for instructions.

You missed the very first step; use six axis pair tool to change Bluetooth address on ps3 controller to that of your tablets address.

No need to use the PC tool, I paired it successfully just plugging the DualShock 3 into the dock. The app then found the MAC address and I could pair it.

Are we requiring root for the above processes to work with Sixaxis? I really don't want to root my Infinity, because I don't see the need to. But I also want a controller that will work well. I wonder when Ouya releases there system, if there controller will work universally across android devices.
I didn't want to get an Ouya system though, because of there refusal to leave the standard android market on it, and refusal to support existing games. All games have to be purchased through there own app market.
Has anyone connected 2 controllers at once? One via BT and the other usb?

App calls for root but I was wondering if that is true or not as well.

I just pre-ordered the Nyko Playpad Pro from Gamestop,
FYI: As per Nyko, Gamestop will be the exclusive distributor for the Playpad Pro until February 2013.
Amazon has preorders on the Playpad and Playpad Pro but the Pro is not available until February 2013 as stated by Nyko. Bummer, I would have preferred to order almost anywhere other than Gamestop since their return policy stinks compared to most others. But I did not want to wait until February either....
Anyone else going for the Playpad or Playpad Pro?
I received my OTG cable in the mail today and wanted to start gaming the right way with my Logitech F310 gamepad but my phone didn't recognize it at all. I tested the controller with Dead Trigger but I got no response. The green "Mode" button comes on when pressed but that's it. I thought that my gamepad would work just fine with my OTG cable because my computer recognizes it as an Xbox 360 controller. Has anybody gotten one of these to work with their S4? Thanks in advance!

Firstly, not all games support gamepads, secondly if you have the 360 controller, i hear theyre better supported c:
and lastly, you can try getting an app that manages the controller and interfaces it with the app, maps it to the touch controls of its not supported for example, theres a few out there, havent tried any myself because i only have a ps3 controller and couldnt get it working with sixaxis :c

For anyone wondering, I was able to find a solution! I bought the USB/BT JoyCenter app and it recognized my F310 in XInput mode (the switch on the bottom). Using the app, I was able to map the buttons.
On a side note, my aftermarket Power A Playstation 3 controller works automatically with some games without any extra software.

please name the app for this solution again.
I can't found in playstore.
I use Samsung Note 3 + OTG cable. It can be use with cheap controller but it cann't active with F310.

Hey,
My experience has been very flakey with the f310 but I can confirm that it does work. In some games such as asphalt 8 you don't need the joycenter app. Just mess around with it.

i second this question
Hello
I recently bought a USB OTG cable Y to my tablet Asus MemoPad HD 7. I wanted to play Max Payne, but on Esperanza gamepad (looks like this on the PS2) camera constantly rotating. On the android home this gamepad works very well. I suppose that this is a problem with the mapping of keys. I would like to know how to make the game began to work well.
With the Xbox 360 gamepad I have this problem that Android in general does not detect it. Or on the Home screen or in the game does not work. I plug the X360 wireless receiver - it lights, it pair with the controller and do nothing. I have copied keylaouts for wired and wireless controller. Everything like in this youtube video: /watch?v=9czISrLGXNI - with the difference that I first had to upload a file from the wireless pad.
I would add that the USB / BT Joystick Center 2015 does not detect Esperanza and X360 gamepad. USB Device Info detect them without a problem.
The PS3 gamepad works without a problem.
Sorry for my English. 90% of this was translated by Google translator.
Anyone can help?
Is there any way to make the 360 controller work on the S6? It's not a wireless controller.
I'll even root. Is there any way to make the 360 wired controller work? (tried it with my otg but it dosen't work. Strange thing that it worked on any other phone in my house..)
Anyone?
It should work out of the box. Are you on stock f/w?

Yep. It's not working..
strange. my ps2 controler with ps2 to usb and than over the otg cable works fine.
it could be that the s6 doesn't deliver enough power for the xbox controller.

Nope,it delivers the power but the controller wont find the phone. I don't know why. Everyone on the internet has the same problem..
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 fixed apk file upon request, or you can diy with the instructions above.
Out of the box galaxy s6 doesn't work with with x360 controller. It doesn't event work with regular usb controller that other phones work. You have to remap buttons but it's pointless because phone doesn't recognize analog triggers and joysticks.

USB Joycenter has a feature that works with the MegaN64 and Mupen64 Emulators that allows for analog input. I'm uploading a video tutorial right now, it'll be up in an hour or so. https://youtu.be/I9fvLZMd9bE

I realize that the question is a little "convoluted" and hope to be in the right section.
I have an old tablet Acer Iconia tab a100 I wanted to connect to my TV via HDMI and to whom I wanted to connect a joypad to play.
However, the very old Acer does not have OTG and I do not have an Bluetooth controller (I have a Logitech dual action, a PS2 pad with USB adapter and wireless xbox360 controller with the adapter).
Now I tried to use my s3neo as pad through the app BT controller, but not everything works with all apps and still is inconvenient because I have not the sensitivity of the controller (in the sense I do not see what I touch when I watch TV) .
I floated the idea of linking one of my pad via OTG all'S3neo and use it as a "bridge" for the tablet via Bluetooth (I do not have wi fi).
I try with 360 pads but does not work (not pairing while on pc work and do not understand why)
The Logitech Dual Action is recognized, however, creates a problem: Some keys are associated with functions that can not be removed (for example by pressing the appropriate button of the triangle comes to my home and is therefore not usable in game)
The ps2 pad is however recognized the right analog is completely busted.
I tried with tincore keymapper but I have serious difficulties.
Thanks in advance!
