Post your favorite game controller for the S6.
Please state wired or connected through bluetooth.
And tell us about your experience with emulators.
I personally tried to connect:
A wiimote to the S6 through bluetooth to play snes games without any luck.
A wii U controller through both bluetooth and USB > no success
A xbox controller through USB > no success
I use my ps3 controller via bluetooth. Had to download a key mapping app (available on playstore) to get it to work properly. I'm contemplating whether to buy a cellphone mount for the case so I can attach my phone on the controller (to achieve something similar to nvidia shield).

Rakcoon is probably going to tell you a different way (or maybe the same way.. dont know we will see) but this is the way i did it.
Your phone must be rooted for it to be able to work with these apps.
First get Sixaxis Compatibility Checker if you havent. and check if your phone is even compatible at all.
IF yes get the Sixaxis controller app. it costs €1,94 but i'm sure you can get the apk somewhere for free.
Have a good day!

Hey All. I figured I would do a video tutorial on how to connect the Nintendo Wii controller to the Viewsonic G Tablet. I connected it earlier today and it works great. This is just a basic tutorial showing you what you need and how to use it, but it does not go into detail on the specific options of the programs. Here are the programs that you will need to download from the android market to get started:
1. Romgripper
2. DroidEmuLite
3. WiimoteController
Enjoy!

anyone try this out yet? any issues or tips? Please post if you have found any.
Thanks,
scott
I actually knew how to do this already but the one thing that I'm not sure of is if we can play a two player game on this thing using two wiimotes? I see that the wiimote program sees both controllers but it doesn't do anything while using it in the SNES or tigermame emulators. Hope u can help. Great vid btw.

Epic. So glad I found this. Reinforces my thankfulness for buying this Tab.
can this also be done with a ps3 remote?
The Wii remote also works great with Quake as well. Pretty neat ability of the gtab.
I am unable to locate romgripper via the android marketplace or amazon marketplace on the gtablet. Anyone have a valid link to the apk?

Works fine on Brilliant Corners. Was using it earlier to play Legend of Zelda quest 2. Not using any guides so this is gonna take a while to beat.

Brilliant Corners? Is that a game?
Are you using stock? I haven't rooted my gtab. Was hoping it would not be necessary.
Anyone able to use the nunchuck joystick as a proper joystick with incremental speed for walking vs. running? I am only able to map up, down, left and right. I expect it's impossible, but it would make n64oid massively more fun.

Brilliant Corners is a ROM with a 1.2 bootloader by roebeet. It's a lot like Vegan Tab 5.1.1.
I'm using nesoid to play the roms & the wiimotecontoller app to connect the wiimote via bluetooth.
Hello
Is it possible to use the PS3 Controller with the external USB Adapter/Extension?
I saw some people use the PS3 controller with the dock...
So I wonder if it's possible to do the same thing using the USB adapter?
And if possible... will I need specific apps?
No answer... anyone??
Yes. I have it working on my tf101 running Revolution 3.1. It is supposed to be natively support in ICS. I say this because i bought the sixaxis app before i read that little tidbit. And i tried to use it. Honestly i dont think thats what did it though but i got it working. At first with the usb dongle but then wirelessly. Very cool. I played R-Type with it.
I couldnt find a list of games that worked. I bought Riptide GP but it didnt work. I only tried the first night though.

I know that I can use it with Bluetooth with Sixaxis app BUT I have to change the master using PC!
I was asking if it's possible to change the master directly from the Transformer...
Apparently... it changes automatically if you plug it in to the keyboard dock or maybe i'm wrong?
I don't have the keyboard!
The external USB adapter doesnt work any different from the USB ports on the dock. So if it works on the dock's usb ports, it should work in the adapter too.
I don't have the keyboard dock either. I meant I used this to plug in the controller

Hi guys, I will buy new smartphone, Stuck Between Xperia ZL and Google Nexus 5
Anyway, LG tells that Nexus 5 Have USB OTG, and if you Googled: Nexus 5 USB OTG, you will get apps to run USB OTG On Nexus 5
What does that mean?
should i have an App to use OTG? doesn't it work out of the box? i'm won't root
I Might Use Joysticks, Mouse, Keyboard, Ext HDD,etc. so i want everything to be supported
I've also heared about Nexus 5 Unmount Devices Due to High Power Usage even if the usage is low?
No you can use usb otg out of the box with nexus media importer its an paid app or root it to get full functionality.
Since u don't wannt to root better go with xperia zl.
Xperia zl supports it out of the box, u won't need any app on it
Now its your call.

I Can always get APK's For Paid apps for free, we all know this :laugh:
That's OK But what About Other things like joysticks, mouse, keyboard, etc. Will They Work too? i thought the app was only for Flash Drives!?
Plus, Beside the OTG Thing, Which one do you advice me, I'm not a ROM Developer or those who Install Other ROM's, But i might Use some emulation things or try to Install WinXP as an Example
i Also Might root To use Terminal for Specific Purposes... "Might"...
If you don't want to buy the app I recommend use total commander + USB plugin its free one

I have also tried a wireless mouse and keyboard which work fine.
Game controllers are touch and go.
Ones that use the standard hid drivers should be fine but anything else (Xbox controllers etc...) Will not work as they need modules that haven't been built for the n5 yet.
External storage requires 3rd party apps to Mount

Pretty sure you can't do that. Only with a 360 controller, and it needs to be a wired one.
Well, thanks kinda disapointing.
But I still got a old PS3 Controller, and its working with most of my games.
Expect the menus in Portal and Half Life 2. Is there a way to fix that? I cant scroll through them
/e
Just found a video showing that the xBox One Controller is compatible with "USB/BT Joystick Center "2015"". I got the App, but my tablet still dont recognize it. Is this just a Shield problem?

The Xbox one controller uses neither USB or Bluetooth, so I find that hard to believe.
Was the guy in the video actually using it on his phone/tablet?

Hey guys!
Just a quick update for everyone who got the same problem.
Looks like the stock rom seriously dislikes the xBox one controller.
So everyone who is willing to flash another ROM. After flashing unoffical CM12.1 the controller is working like a charm with an OTG cable.

No problem, man. Just try to not sound so aggressive next time. Mistakes happen.
So, I am currently a bit confused about this thread. Is it somehow possible on stock or not?
I recently tried the XBox One controller via cable on KitKat stock, but to no avail.
A wireless controller for PC isn't available until later this year, so I don't think this is a valid solution right now.
Xbox One controllers do not transmit data via USB ever.
The usb on the XBO controller is for charging only.
It is a wireless only controller as far as data is concerned.
You will never ever get usb to work because ghe controller does not have that capability with any system. It is an all wireless controller except fof charging.
That is why the guy who said you have to use a wireless pc reciever is correct.
Sorry there is no possible work around as the usb port doesnt physically support data transmission.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
But it is news at all. It is good to know.
Has anybody tried the wireless XBox One so far?

100% untrue. Xbox One Controller works via USB on my Windows 10 computer, no additional drivers. I don't have any wireless adapters or Bluetooth installed.
Unfortunately, this isn't the case with android. Neither USB/Wireless will work without support from Microsoft.

You will find that windows automatically installed drivers for the xbox one pad as it did for me when i plugged it in. due to being a MS device it has its own repository to aquire the driver from and as such may of updated without you even noticing
EDIT: i stand corrected as of windows 10 the driver is bundled into windows, but there is still a driver, its just windows 7 and 8.x users that need to run a driver update to download them, again this would happen when they plug in the pad anyway

Inaccurate statement, you are just the bearer of in correct information
so all that is really needed is for someone to figure out how to port the usb drivers that windows uses for the xbox one pad (which is fully supported over usb on my gaming pc as well) to an android version. I am very tempted to scour the net for any such development already occuring, failing that i will mayb e develop it myself with the people who are developing on the Nvidia tablet who achieved root on it in the first place. I am considering buying one of these devices myself, but i may look to see if a newer version is in the pipeline anytime soon and if there is save my money for that one. if only they had a shield tablet x1 edition like the tv box
No need to keep quoting me.
I was provided and in turn provided inaccurate information.
I apologize.
As a gamer I am really interested in this phone because of it's awesome specs but there is one important detail I would really like to know. Can you connect a gamepad, like the dualshock 4 for example, through otg on this device? I would really appreciate it if an owner ran a test to see if it's possible.
P.S. I want to run emulators on it.
Can't anyone tell me if this thing supports gamepads? Please!

I am a input delay freak. I have enough android devices that have disappointing me when it comes to bluetooth gamepad connection. I just want a simple, lag free, wired connection. Wires, while they might be uncomfortable, they will always beat wireless when it comes reliability and speed of data transfer.
Last time I used sixaxis on my Nexus 4, it was flawless but I'll ask my cousin if he can bring his ds4 so I can test it with a USB cable and sixaxis
