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?
Hello everybody! I have just received new tablet with B01 battery. Old tablet i want to use with my TV to watch films, etc. But i dont want to buy gamepad. So, i have one question: is there a way to use shield tablet in console mode with mouse only? Sorry for my bad english.
Yes, you can use a mouse in console mode.
You will either have to use an otg cable for a wired/wireless dongle mouse (unable to charge tablet) or use a Bluetooth mouse.
Hi,
I have a tronsmart vega s89 tv box. It's come with IR remote (not air mouse) that works without dongle.
When I connect my tronsmart Mars G01 gamepad and play any gameloft Moga supported game, it works very well with no problem.
My problem is when I connect my air mouse dongle, the tv box recognize it as a primary input and as a gamepad. So when I start any gameloft game, it will not recognize my gamepad G01 and will not work.
I tried to connect a wireless mouse with dongle and disconnect the air mouse, the result was the same.
I tried to connect a wire mouse directly to the box, the gamepad G01 work again.
Any possibility to make my gamepad G01 connected always as a primary input regardless if I connect any other input devices?
Thanks alot.
Please experts!!
Been using the Sixaxis app on my Nvidia Shield tablet to play Gamestream games on my couch. I'm using the DS4 wirelessly over BT. The Shield is connected wired via OTG LAN adapter.
Have a couple of problems that I'm trying to sort out:
1. When I hold down any of the direction pad buttons, the input is taken as multiple fast presses so it's impossible to use in some games like GTA5 where you need to hold down a direction in order to change characters. This "long press" is actually used in quite a few games so it's a big bummer that it doesn't work properly.
2. I set auto-launch in the sixaxis app but when I switch to the console mode it doesn't pair with the DS4 when I turn it in. I have to stop and then re-start the sixaxis to get it to see the DS4.
Would really like to fix at least #1. Any suggestions?
PS: Shield is on Android 5.3.
Would someone who plays with the same setup (DS4 via BT) mind posting screenshot (or description) of their Sixaxis settings?
I bought Amazon Fire HD8(2018), I thought I can use it as a budget option for emulator gaming or native gaming.
Everything works fine software wise, but I can't properly connect it with gamepads.
Here are my gamepads:
Steam Controller x2 - it only works in the Steam Link App, and become mouse outside the app.
Dual Shock 4 (gen1) x1 - it can pair and show as "wireless controller" in setting, but just completely not sending any control signal to Android. (googled it, someone said gen1 is not supported by Android, but also many posts say DS4 is usable before gen2 even came out, so I really can't understand why this is not working)
Switch Pro Controller x2 - it can pair, Android do receive its signal, but it has huge input lag and intermittently signal, this is a common issue online, and I can't find a solution so far.
So, that's already 3 kinds of popular controllers I have tried and I don't have other controllers (5 are already a bit too much for me).
Is there anything I can try to make those controllers work? maybe I can install a driver or something?
If there is really no solution for controllers I already have, what's the budget/working/wireless gamepad that recommended to buy for my HD8?
Thanks.
With older versions of Android, it's hard to make gamepads work. There's not much you can do about that. You can try Android-specific Bluetooth gamepads. 8BitDo and Gamesir controllers apparently work well. Moga ones might, too.
@sky1331, have you tried a micro usb OTG adapter yet? It may expand your available options by allowing you to use your controllers wired (albeit at the cost of not being able to charge your tablet while playing).

I have tried a micro USB OTG cable. It doesn't work. I tried with two different controllers and both produced the same result.
XBox One controller model 1697: I first tried the OTG adapter without external power to the HD8 (2018) through the OTG adapter. The controller vibrated and the home light turned on. Then the tablet rebooted without warning. I assumed that the controller was drawing power from the tablet so I also plugged in the power cord for the tablet to the OTG adapter and tried again. Same result. Vibrates, lights up, tablet reboots. If you leave the controller plugged in while it boots, it will bootloop.
Dual Shock 3 model CECHZC2U: Downloaded Sixaxis Compatibility Checker. Method 5 for drivers worked, so I purchased the Sixaxis app. I plugged the controller into my laptop and reassigned the MAC address to my tablets Bluetooth MAC address. Then I clicked "Pair" on the Sixaxis app and waited until I saw "Looking for controller" like I'm supposed to. Then I unplugged the controller from my laptop and pressed the home button. 4 flashing lights that just keep flashing. And flashing. And flashing. Until they all go out like the controller timed out. Damn. So I plugged in the OTG adapter again and plugged the controller into the tablet. It didn't reboot and the 1st light lit up like it was assigned the player 1 spot. So I unplugged it. Immediately all 4 lights started flashing again until it timed out. So I plugged it back into the tablet and got the 1st light again. Then I fired up every app I know of that supports external controllers. Not a single one could detect the controller. Nor could I control Android like I normally can with my spare Moto Z Force with the Moto Gamepad mod. So, no input is being detected at all.
I don't have any other controllers to test, but my guess is that a generic Bluetooth controller might work, but none of the major controllers seem to work so don't get your hopes up. I will also say that I know it's not a problem with the tablet or OTG cable. Both work great when I plug a flash drive into the OTG cable while hooked up to the tablet. The drive shows up just fine.
Edit: I bought a Playstation Classic. I don't have a need for a second controller for it and it comes with 2 so I thought I'd try the extra on the Fire HD 8 2018. It works great using an OTG cable. ePSXe detected it straight away and I can control Android with the controller perfectly fine. Retroarch sees it. So, I've found a solution that meets my needs. I'd have preferred wireless, but I really didnt want to purchase a whole controller for a device I'm not intending to lose or break in 6-9 months but will realistically happen within that timeframe.
It's working, I using the GEN Game Bluetooth Gamepad, it's working.
I'm having the same problem with my Kindle Fire 10 HD 7th gen tablet. I bought a IPEGA PG-9023 Telescopic Wireless Bluetooth Game Controller. It's detected, but it just won't connect. Works fine with the Amazon Firestick 4K. The only difference is that the Firestick uses Bluetooth 5.0 + LE and the Kindle 10" Tablet uses Bluetooth 4.1 + LE which the IPEGA gamepad is supposed to support. I have no idea whatsoever why it won't connect.

I'm using this controller: "Xbox Series X Wireless Controller Electric Volt". It pairs and works fine with Retroarch emulation of nes, snes, ps1, etc.. and Asphalt 8.
