Working controllers ? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

Is there any game controllers other than MadCatz that work with the galaxy S7 ?
I have only tested with the PS4 Dualshock with no luck. I havnt tested with sixaxis app since it requires root.
Wondering since its REALY stupid to have to fiddle on your head with the pad on the Gear VR to even click on something. Why didnt they simply add a hover with timeout like it works on the kinect...
And were is the freaking Game Launcher app i cant find it on my phone..

Moga pro power. Also on occulus supported controller list

The allt

I asked this weeks ago and im in the same boat. I cant get my ps4 controller to work anymore. I tried an xbox one controller as well but that reboots my phone. the ps4 works with the note 5 and s5 i have? Is this a marshmallow issue?

EI-GP20
Well, the official Samsung (EI-GP20) one isn't very good, but at least works.

I purchased the moga power pro a. should get it mon. - tues. Ill report back. Has anyone received notice of approval for there VR so we can start testing games with it as well?

Moga hero power works on the s7 atleast in hid mode, you just need to pair it through Bluetooth on the phone then do it in the app. Also works on gear vr

Nyko playpad pro works, i did update the firmware on it. Paid like 13$ at Gamestop a year or 2 ago.
Had it laying around for my amazon fire.

Same problem here. used to play games with my Dualshock3 via USB on my S5 (never used Bluetooth as that resulted in unplayable input lag for me). neither my Dualshock3 nor a quick test with a Dualshock4 at a local shop worked. The entire signaling doesnt seem to work - no Key Events are being sent as it seems. Any cheap USB gamepad seems to work though.
If someone finds a solution, please report back!

Can you walk me thru the process

I am a newbie at controllers and Gear VR. I purchased a new galaxy s7. I read the Hero pro was a good controller to use. I have not been successful at pairing or being able to use with VR. Would you mind walking me through step by step how to do this?
Thanks!

Has anyone had luck with the dualshock 4 controller connected by a USB otg cable? I have been trying to make it work but I can't get it to be recognized.

For Gear VR, I use my old Ouya controller. Most things just work, but I'm considering Tincore Keymapper.

I am using the Xbox 1 wireless (white) Controller with my Samsung s7 edge (no root) and gear VR 2016.
This controller is supported by oculus and is fully working with Minecraft VR. Microsoft intends to support all gear VR software starting with Minecraft VR .......hope this helps!!!

Samsung disabled the use of PlayStation controllers, even through USB connection.

I use the Snakebyte Gamepad, can only recommend it.

Gamestop 2.4 ghz wireless ps3 controller

I've noticed that most game devs have started implementing the Gamestop wireless controller into their games such as GTA 3 and Dead Trigger, so I decided to buy one for my Galaxy Note N7000, but like a dumb ass and not doing my research I bought this http://www.gamestop.co.uk/PlayStation%203/Games/6234/gamestop-ps3-wireless-controller?previousUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gamestop.co.uk%2FSearchResult%2FQuickSearch%3Fq%3DGameStop%3A%20PS3%20Wireless%20Controller instead of the Bluetooth version, so my question is, is there any way to make this controller work with my Galaxy Note running ICS 4.0.4 stock?
Thanks for any help

[Q] android controller on Samsung Galaxy tab pro 12.2

I hope someone can help me with a gamepad controller issue.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2 that I'm using said gamepad controller on. Everything works fine except the left trigger button. It's strange, the button acts as if rapid fire is set on even though it doesn't offer that feature.
I have tried 4 different controllers and it's the same problem on each one.
I'm not sure if I'm posting in the correct forum as I'm new here. I apologize if I'm wrong.
Also the tablet is not with any carrier. It's sm-t900
Thanks for any help.

Any details on how to connect it with Bluetooth? I'm not able to get the Sixaxis Controller app to work.

Using the ps4 controller/DS4 controller on galaxy s7/s7edge nougat update 7.0

GREAT NEWS!!!
Today i just got the 7.0 nougat update from sprint in the US and found that the problem where the PS4/DS4 controller wouldn't connect through OTG has been fixed. I JUST finished all the updates and decided to see if magically they fixed that problem (and believe me it was a problem for me) AND IT WORKED. I was so excited because i got a DS4 controller mount for the s7edge and found that the controller didn't work with my s7 even though it worked just fine with my s6. So i'm happy to announce that the nougat update for the s7edge on Sprint has fixed the DS4 OTG issue.
Confirmation
I can confirm that this works also. I have a regular Galaxy S7. When connected, the PS4 controller will flash yellow. The only problem I have is that the audio cuts out on the emulators I have been using. Anyone find a workaround yet?
