Google cardboard (VR glasses) and SteelSeries Free Mobile controller - General Questions and Answers

Hi.
I have bought VR glasses called: "3D VR BOX II". Unfortunately, I got the version without the remote.
I have got "SteelSeries Free Mobile Wireless Controller", so I thought I will be able to control cardboard apps using it. Unfortunately, it seems that the controller isn't able to emulate this "cardboard" button. Is there any way to remap this controller to work with cardboard?
I've got a non-rooted Galaxy Note 4 (N910C).
I would very appreciate any help.

IR App to Control Xbox 360?

Hi Guys,
I've been trying so so many tablets and think I'm settling with the 7.0 Plus for now (anxious to play with the 7.7!!)
I was wondering if any you guys know of an app that can control the xbox 360? I use it as an extender to watch AT&T U-Verse and was hoping I could use the tablet to control DVR and surfing functions since I don't think the Peel software will control the 360. Any suggestions?
I use Windows media center and have not been able to find an app to control it as well. The Xbox uses the same protocol as the Xbox.

OTG and MHL Doubt.

So i have been buying games in the play store like crazy :laugh: I was wondering that how awesome it will be to connect my phone to my TV using the MHL cable (I know this part).
AND
Connect a wireless keyboard or Xbox 360 Joystick to the phone (I read that PS3 joystick works) and sit back and play.?
Is it possible to do the second part??:silly:

Well i use the mhl for movies and stuff, and also for a bit of work.
Also have nice rubber, rollable BT keyboard -- works pretty well.
Unfortunately Cynogen -- which gives u best google experience doesnt support mhl ATM. and some apps dont work -- PS touch for instance...
hmm so there is no way to get a wireless keyboard or the xbox joystick to work

Although I prefer a ps3 controller because you can map the buttons to the touch screen. So it works for every game available

I imagine because your unable to map the controller to the touch screen it will work with a few select games that have native gamepad support
Although if you download USB/bt joystick centre you can map them I think

The only thing I don't like about mhl is the big performance hit the phone takes so if a game pushes your phone already and you connect via mhl then it becomes unplayable for me. But less demanding games and emulators work great.

-Get a SIXAXIS compatible controller (eg sixaxis, dualshock3, datel turbofire2)
-Get the SIXAXIS App (Paid) from the Market
-Get a MHL-cord and connect to PC
-Now you connect your Controller to NOTE via BlueTooth using the SIXAXIS App
-Use the SIXAXIS App to map which button does what action OR where it taps the screen
-Save/Load profile for various games

Alright! ordering my OTG and MHL tomorrow. Lets see which one works.
Hi there......
If course, it's possible to connect the note with the mhl to a tv and connect a wireless keyboard over Bluetooth.....
I use the keyboard from keysonic 340 BT, that's great, have a mousepad, works great with the "external Keyboard Helper" app, there you can configure 3 complete keymappings to the whole keyboard and switch them how you want..... Also gamepad keys are available....
For gaming:
Most of the new games are supporting Gamepads already........
For ps3 Controller use the sixaxxis App, works for sure.....
But there ist also an app that is called bt/Usb joystick center, wich should connect all kind of wired and wireless pads to the Usb host or Bluetooth.......
I got the app but have no controller at the moment to test it.....
There's also an add on, called joy2touch, this should make it possible, to configure a keyboard, wired or wireless, to play games like on pc with mouse for view and keyboard control, that's what the dev promise, but sure I never test it...... If it works, it would be fantastic......
But the quality of the Mhl picture is fantastic.... At movies, you can watch them in real 1920 x 1080, more than the display can show.... Great.....
And also in games, there is enough resolution to play it on a great hd tv set.... A real mobile game console.......

Just got my MHL and OTG cable :laugh:.
And just realized that after connecting the MHL i wont be able to connect the OTG cable as we have only 1 port:silly::silly:.
So was looking at alternatives to play the games not and later buy some good joysticks. Few games are working with the standard keyboard,mouse but i have to map them.
Also came across this wireless joystick . Any idea if this will work with sixaxis or similar app to map the buttons?

[Q] Is there any nvidia shield features i can get on note 3?

I have note 3, but i miss the features that shield had like the touch controls to physical controller mappings.
Is there a very smiliar software like that i can get on my note 3 which does exactly the same but to a ps3/ps4 controller? Cause i really liked to play android games with controllers but i don't want to buy a new shield just for that. (not like the shield supports that many great games either)
No one knows?
Any software that is smiliar which can do exactly what the shield's "console mode" mapper does?
There's an app called tincore, free on the play store. A lot of people had success with it, though I tried to play minecraft with and it didn't work well. There are even downloadable layouts if you search for it...
Yeah, too advanced for me too. tried it several times, plus the bloody app uses too long to start up

Xbox 360 Wireless controller doesn't work with GS6

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.

Galaxy S3 mapping and Bluetooth Problems.

Hi XDA community,
Hi everyone,
I have a rooted Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-19300 running android 4.3. Now here are my problems.
#1. I successfully installed Tincore Keymapper and the PS SIXAXIS apps, and I can apply mapping profiles in both apps, and both apps register my controllers, but when I try to use them in a game, nothing happens. And I know my controllers are not broken (Works with Dead Triggers Controller setup).
#2. I saw videos on youtube where people easily connected a PS3 or PS4 controller directly with their non SONY phone, even an S3. My S3 can read my PS3/4 controllers (Via BlueTooth), but not pair with or use them. So, is there a way to fix that; maybe update the Bluetooth or it's driver?
I reeeally would like these things fixed on my phone, please help.
Got the exact same problem with the SIXAXIS CONTROLLER app,the controller registers wirelessely,I've created profile for the Shadow Fight 2 game but it simply won't work+when switching to the S8XAXIS CONTROLLER app,the profile is set to NONE while before starting the game was selected the game's profile.I've been troubling for days and can't find a solution anywhere in the web or youtube.. My phone is GS4 GT-i9505 Jellybean 4.3.
cheers.
