So I got the Ipega PG-9083 thinking that this would be the one to do better than the 9023 or 9055, but I was wrong. I had so many problems with this on my Shield Tablet, even though I am rooted! I had tried Tincore Mapper with it, and it wouldn't register the Right Thumb-Stick. :crying:
It had so much potential, but you really do get what you pay for - It was about $30 shipped from China. The buttons (x,y,a,b) are OK, but the shoulder buttons feel weak and like they could break after about 1000 presses.
Here's a picture of it:

I just want to say that I'm disappointed in the Ipega. It's the only company with a telescopic controller, but since it's not really usable, I'm going to use my Xbox 360 controller or my 2017 Shield TV Controller.
Unrelated question - I can't get the Gamepad Mapper to start with my 2017 Shield TV Controller -- do you need to have the 2015 Shield Controller instead? I really want to use the Gamepad Mapper, but it just doesn't seem to work on my Shield Tablet - stock 5.2 (Nougat 7.0) ROM. I'm rooted too.
Anyhow, have a great day!

Hey Eloquence, i have the same Controller. If you run on stock rom, you can press and hold the start button to activate the nvidia own button mapper. The cool thing is, that nvidia has updated the mapper, so now you can download game profiles. I had some issiues with PUBG, but nothing serious. sometimes the button you press to configure wouldnt be rcogniced and some other button would be mepped. All in all it is usable with the shield k1 i think. Also both sticks are usable. Hope this would help.

Thanks so much @ShrekDTH ! I appreciate that. I'm gonna try that tonight. I can't even get my Shield 2017 Controller to activate the stock button mapper. I'm on 5.2 stock ROM as that's the newest stock ROM with the best battery life, imho. Do I have to load the Mapper.apk onto my tablet? When I hit the STart button on my Controller, nothing happens.
Do I Have a problem with my Tablet's Stock ROM perhaps? Help! :crying:
Thanks,
-Elo
Thanks so much @ShrekDTH! That absolutely worked! I didn't think it would because I have a 2017 Shield TV Controller that didn't work and an Xbox 360 controller that didn't work either when I held down the Start button on both controllers! The Ipega worked! So happy as now I can use it with some games that I wanted to play on the now FREE GeforceNOW! WOOOHOO!

Hi guys!
As a lot of other people, I use my PS3 more as a media center / Blu-Ray player, then I'm actually playing on it. Every time I sit down to watch a movie from my media server or a BD-disk, I'm annoyed of how bad the PS3-remote looks. Especially when my beautiful HD2 is always laying next to it.
So:
I was hoping that some of you geniuses here might have the same impression as me, and see the value in a "HD2 PS3 media control"-app, which uses Bluetooth.
I would think that it only needs directional buttons for maneuvering in menus, a OK-button, the "Playstation"-button and the 4 actionbuttons; X, O, [] and /\.
With so many PS3-owners in the world, I'd guess that this application would be quite "sellable" for the developer as well
Cheers, Eirik.
Would like it =D!
HD2 as PS3 media control
Hey
Go to mobilesrc.com and try Mobile Remote. Works pretty well on my Touch Pro 2. Didn't get my HD2 in the mail yet. Might not be exactly what your looking for but it works with the PS3.
hmm.. i'm watching this thread.. this could prove to be interesting..
Hi
Mobile remote is ugly .... and send me an error :10038 (Failed to load driver)
Another idea ?
Thx

I asked the dev already, Mobile Remote does not work with HD2 bluetooth stack.
I made a little "mock-up" of how this might look, and would enable us to control most of the PS3's functions with the HD2's brilliant touch screen.
Unfortunately I was neither allowed to post the picture, the link or even put the link to the picture in a code-box :-/
Anybody? ... anything?

Maybe just start by everyone who has had a keyboard working posting the make and model in this thread?

My rom is Android revolution HD 6.4.0
My bluetooth keyboard is a dell Y-RAQ-DEL2
Seems to work ok. Wish I had a bluetooth mouse to go with it. Pairing is simple. Just go to the bluetooth screen on android. Now turn the keyboard on and hold down the pairing bluetooth button on the back til the dell keyboard is detected on the android side. A key will be listed so just type it in and the pairing is finished.
Rom: VI 4.0
Bluetooth keyboard: Apple bluetooth keyboard
I did pair the mouse but it didn't seam to do anything
I've had luck using the keyboard for the Motorola Xoom/Atrix. You just need to put the keyboard into computer pair mode by turning it on while holding keys V+A+R, and you can pair it to admitting else with Bluetooth. I've used it with my sensation, Xoom and touchpad.

Hi,
I just bought this one:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B004EFZ2FA/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=&seller=
So far it's okay. The keypad is fairly squashed and is a bit awkward to use because it's laid out in a 'chocolate box style' rather than staggered, but at the same time it's not quite small enough to hold in your hands and reach all of the keys with your hands. The keys feel pretty cheap, but for £20, what do you expect, especially as it has a mouse too : )
However, having said that, now that ICS is here the mouse function works everywhere, not just in certain apps. This gives almost full control of the phone. The only thing missing initially (that I've noticed) was the ability to press 'Menu'. I've solved this by altering the keyboard layout file as per the instrustions here: http://chris.boyle.name/2010/08/android-keymaps. I chose to re-map the 'Alt Gr' to menu.
By trial and error I'm finding all sorts of Ctrl key combinations to do various things, such as open bookmarks in the web browser (Ctrl B), history (Ctrl H) and so on.
On the plus side it will be small enough to go in a suitcase to take on holiday along with my MHL cable so I can plug it into tvs in the hotel room. Yeah baby!!!

now i understand than android is for TOUCH version (smartphone, tablet)
androidtv is for CONTROLLER REMOTE version (smartv,xbox,ps4, stick with androidtv,etc)
my box tv is android and is not androidTV so this mean i have problem with controller remote but is not workflow, worked 70% case: depend from APP version for TOUCH or for CONTROLLER REMOTE..
so i did try various app installer in my boxtv:
-droidmote server and droid client: (i want not this because force to use other device smartphone, i want to use my controller remote real)
-TeamViewer QuickSupport: (i want not this because force to use other device smartphone, i want to use my controller remote real)
-LANmote Lite: (i want not this because force to use other device smartphone, i want to use my controller remote real)
so i did try device with my boxtv:
-controller remote (directional button,home,back,ok, setting detail,volume-, volume+, power off/on):
device is worked, but used mode mouse, directional button like controller remote, but not work for change from touch to controller remote..
-joystick (button directional, button a,b,x,y etc.):
device is worked, but used mode mouse, directional button like controller remote, but not work for change from touch to controller remote..
-mini keyboard( keyboard, directional button,touchpad, clickright for mouse, clickleft for mouse):
device is worked, but used mode mouse, directional button like controller remote, but not work for change from touch to controller remote..
then i wish to ask you:
is there to change mode from touch to controller remote?(similar mode: androidtv) ...if yes, then how i modify my boxtv?
or
is there the app for change mode from touch to controller remote?(similar mode: androidtv) ...if yes, then what is name app?

Hi,
Recently I bought my fire tablet and was wondering if there is a decent game controller that can work with it. Any suggestions would be nice.
I would like to know this too. Specifically, anyone get the newer xbox one bluetooth controller working with it?
i bought this one some weeks ago for my fire tv stick and it works also with the fire hd 10 2017 (i tested it only with 'Beach Buggy Racing' and 'Asphalt 8: Airborne'):
Eaxus Android Bluetooth Game Controller (search on ebay or amazon)
bluetooth connection is a bit weird as the buttons are labelled differently from the description but for the tablet i only needed to hold the home button as far as i remember.
Xbox One Controller works perfect wireless
I'm trying to get a 3rd party wired XBone controller working with otg on HD 8, but I can't figure it out. Do I have to wait for root?
I went and buy Gamesir g3s. You can use it on android Windows and ps3. It resembles PlayStation 3 dualshock controller. It's nice and work without a hitch. You can even use the controller as a mouse. It's great for games that support controller. I use it to play some of my PSP games. God of war chains of Olympus works ok on fire HD 8 there are some slowdowns within the game but controller works great.

I have a Moga Pocket which uses bluetooth and it's a pain in the ass. I prefer to use usb wireless controllers (which cost $10 or less) with a OTG adapter
i like the 8bitdo controllers. sn30 pro!
I bought myself the 8bitdo Zero controllers on Amazon and I love them!!! Have both the blue and red. Can't wait for the new ones that will be released at the end of this year. They're tiny but completely portable and perfect for NES, SNES, GBA and Genesis games on the go with my Fire HD10. Now if I could have a tiny portable N64 Controller I'd be very happy!

Hi, is there anyone able to get the turbo button working in-game? the button definitely works since i can use it for camera. But when i press for game, it doesn't show any option for turbo. No drop-down either. I'm in latest ota.
So far ve read it only works in a few games.. PUBG being one of them.

I've tried looking online but I'd love to know what this says..
I was under the assumption that it didn't involve any interaction from the user. When you pressed the button it just did its thing in the background...
Thanks. i was wondering if the button really works, as i can't see any feedback shown

The button does work and launches gpu turbo but this only works for certain games as not all games take advantage of the gpu turbo function

From Google Translate
You are welcome to use the Turbo button. This function includes:
1 · Turbo mode: This function can improve the performance of the whole machine, but running too long may lead to high power consumption or equipment heating.
2 game hover menu: Use this function to add the game to the game assistant list and start the Turbo button in the game interface, and do not uninstall the game assistant
3 camera shortcuts, the screen display time function
Works for me on war robots. When the game is open and I press the turbo button a little drop down menu appears, then tap the turbo on the left

Thank you. But I couldn't copy the text to paste it into Google... Many thanks..
you need to put the games inside the game suite app first then run the game and press turbo key and voila! Works for me everytime.
thanksss bro...
Works flawlessly on the temple run games hahaha
Seriously it does work on those games, think it's hit n miss what it works with and what it doesn't, just try with a variety of games
