Hi all
I have a Note Pro SM-P900 with Android 5.0.2 rooted.
How does one get an Xbox wired controller to work?
I connect it with an OTC USB cable. The light (ring) on the controller blinks, but the controller does not get recognized. The app "gamepad test" does not react to pressing the buttons.
The OTC cable works fine with a 8GB memory stick.
The controller works fine with a PC.
Any suggestions are super welcome. Thanks.

I remember doing this with a tab 3, but I had to get drivers on there somehow, I'll be at work in a bit and see if I'm able to find the old link.

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.

Anyone manage to get a XBox one controller to work with the Note 5? I got a USB OTG cable and tried connecting the xbox one controller and the Note 5 would not recognize it.
I also tried the USBBT Joystick Center app and it recognizes the controller sometimes. When it does recognize the controller the phone reboots.
I'm on stock rooted OK3.
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
Phone Details:
Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+
Model: SM-G928I
Unrooted (default rom)
Android 6.0.1 (updated via the phone after)
Issue:
Recently tried to play some emulated N64 games using a PS4 controller and the Bluetooth connection was laggy with a delay. I bought a controller attachment to mount my phone to the controller and a micro usb to micro usb OTG cable. I have tried plugging the phone into the PS4 controller and there seems to be no connection or control (pressed all the buttons and nothing happened). I have tried the bluetooth reconnection methods to work around the delays, I would prefer to get the cable method working for delay-less control, and it uses less power than Bluetooth.
Any help to get the cable method working?

Otg cables are notoriously fiddly, it could possibly be the cable, try another cable and if you're going to buy another don't buy a cheap one
