I have a lenovo yoga book tablet and i would like to connect a dualshock 4 controlled to it. so i tried pairing it and it connected fine and said that it's connected but didn't respond so i tried using an otg cable but results were the same controller light us like it's charging but no response. i also have samsung galaxy s7 edge phone and i tried connecting controller to it and it worked perfectly fine via bluetooth and otg also worked fine on pc so i don't know what's the problem.
Someone help please (i have tried resetting controller and no the controller is not paired with any other device also rooting is not an option).

I'm trying to get my Xbox 360 wireless controller and wireless receiver (Chinese knockoff that works perfect on PC) I had laying around to work with my OPO. Sadly this has been harder then I expected. I have ran into the following problem. After I reboot my phone and the receiver is connected through a OTG USB cable, my controller is connected to my OPO and I can move in menus and play a SNES game for example. The problem however is that this connection remains for a very short amount of time, it seems that the phone stops seeing the USB device that is connected. When trying other USB devices this problem does not occur, I tried a USB stick and a USB mouse. Once the connection is lost the only way to regain connection is to reboot the phone.
I have no idea why this is happening
I've tried many settings and tested a lot of stuff:
I followed the steps in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1792531
I also messed around with other product ID settings related to xbox 360 controllers: http://www.linux-usb.org/usb.ids
On my Windows 7 PC I used USBview.exe to see with which ID the receiver/controller combination was identified which was: 045e 0291 (Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows)
I used the app USB Device Info to see if my OPO was detecting anything via the OTG cable. As mentioned above after a few seconds ~ < 1min it just disappears.
I've searched in general with Google and specifically on XDA and the OPO forums but I've not found a similar problem with regards to the disconnection problem.
Anyway, if someone here has experience with wireless xbox 360 controller on the OPO or USB devices that disappear. Help would be appreciated!
I think I might have found why this will not work correctly, the default kernel of the OPO doesn't have xpad.ko.

The problem is that there are no drivers for the Xbox 360 control pad.
You need xpad.ko for the controller to work and ff-memless.ko for the vibrators.
Unfortunately these have to be built for the kernel you are running and as far as I know nobody has built any for the nexus 5 yet

This OPO kernel has xpad.ko included, I might check it out and see what happens.

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.
So I am posting this everywhere as I found very little information about how to do this and trouble shooting some issues. Made a reddit post and going to post it here (I hope this is a proper place to put this).
Just hold down the PS button and Share till the light starts to flash. Go to your Bluetooth and pair the game controller.
Trouble shooting suggestions are on bottom.
Now after about 30sec, and for some unknown reason, you will run into input lag. To fix this you will need to download an app called Bluetooth Auto Connect. Once installed goto Advanced Options - Connect Now. Once you push Connect Now the input lag should be gone.
If you are looking for a clamp I just bought something called Nyko Smart Clip - PlayStation 4 on Amazon for $10. TOTALLY WORTH IT!
Trouble Shooting:
I had an issue when pairing that it would see the device but wouldn't pair. What I had to do was turn off Bluetooth, turn it back on and try again.
Another issue I had was Bluetooth Auto Connect wasn't fixing the lag issue on my Samsung Note Pro (same device I had an issue pairing, my Samsung Note 4 didn't have any of these issues). I had to uninstall sixaxis controller then restart device. Then uninstall Bluetooth Auto Connect and restart device. Then connect DS4 controller. Then install Bluetooth Auto Connect and spammed Connect Now. It seemed to work. FYI my Note Pro is rooted but my Note 4 isn't and this works on both devices!
To repair the controller to your PS4 plug it in with your charging cable and push the PS button, it will pair immediately. I personally bought a 2nd controller so I wouldn't have to do that.
Hello, I tried this with my ps 4 controller and it says that the controller is paired but the light on the controller keeps flashing and it does not respond to any input and after some time it just turns off, the Bluetooth auto connect app just says that is unable to connect to wireless controller, please help, my device is a galaxy s7 edge.
Connecting the PS4 controller works for me but can't do anything else such as can't play games or anything, maybe a future update when everyone starts to cry a bit more about how the S7 Edge isn't compatible with any controller, I have tried 3rd party controllers and the right joystick and the rest of the buttons do not work, the only thing that works is the left joystick...
Before the 7.0 Nougat update on the S7 Edge (SM-G935P) the OTP (wired) connection would crash the phone; freezing the display, hard reboot. This happened on the OFW and rooted versions. Bluetooth would pair but you'd have to try multiple times and you'd need to delete the original pairing to repair (holding the pair buttons on the controller).
After the 7.0 Nougat update, controller support had been added- albeit horribly. The only connection is an OTP connection, Bluetooth still has errors. The button configurations are wrong though, the controller is useless. Square, X and circle are all wrong and triangle doesn't even register.
This is where I'm at, anyone know of any fix? I'm not looking forward to buying a Stratus XL (works perfectly but it's 60$)
I'm about to just switch from Samsung to Sony lol.
Unfortunately the guy that wrote this article is guilty of blatant douchbaggery (what good is a paired controller that cant be mapped and starts mapped completely out of whack). Yes you can 2 button pair a ds4 controller but a ds4 controller is encrypted and requires in linux and linux like os a driver called SCP (SONY CORP.SOMTHING......) That just isnt offered by any app ive seen on droid other than sixaxis. Alternately you could always hard wire it . The major flaw in this is the inability to stop the controller from charging in this case off your phone battery. As far as the mapping goes the only issue is android uses the generic abxy combo which is cross circle square triangle in ps4 speak . in retrospect .....i suppose i should have stopped reading when the author claimed no root. The controller keylayout files (.kl) are located in/system/user/keylayout. How are u supposed to do anything to those w/o root?
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
Hello.
For the last two days I have been trying to make my OMEGA Wireless Gamepad (a copy of the PS Dual Shock controller) work on my Galaxy J7 2016 (6.0.1).
It connects to the phone through Bluetooth as a input device no problem but it won't work further than just that.
I even rooted the phone to try some stuff out but to no avail.
It stays connected but none of the buttons do anything (not in phone menu, not in PPSSPP, not in a bunch of keymapper aps).
So I was wondering is there a way to get this fixed without me having to buy an Micro USB to USB Adapter and trying that out.
Thanks for reading.
