I can only get the wireless xbox controller working with the reciever thing. But it sucks cause it dies on me every ten mins. How did u get the wired controller working at all? I also have the finless rom. i plug it in and the wire seems to send power to the controller as it turns my xboxwith no batteries.
Really want this working, any thoughts or may the problem be the chinease charging cable i got on ebay?

Game Controllers

What are you guys and gals using as far as gaming controllers. I have a PS3 and Xbox One controller at home. Just wondering if either can be easily used with the Tab S. Just purchased Modern Combat 5. So far I've played it on the G3 and Nvidia Shield.

controller recharges the tablet
is it possible to connect the controller (that has a battery pack) to the tablet and recharge the tablet?
eg. can a xbox one controller, that has a battery pack, be connected with an mhl cable/usb cable to a tablet and be used to charge the tablet?

Finally figured it out...just in time for my trip!
I ended up buying the Red Samurai controller from Gamestop for $15.
I am able to connect and use with retroarch. Just needed to install the free app, Bluez IME. Takes a bit of configuring but once it's set, the controller works flawlessly.
The app and retroarch even has a reconfigured profile for the controller.

Great suggestion. I'm thinking buy the Moga Pro but this is cheaper and it is more similar with PS controller.
Can you tell me if you can play in emulators such as the PSP emulator?

Has anyone tried an original xbox wireless controller with the receiver connected to the usb (via adapter)? The receiver seems to has power,
but the controller wont connect. PS3 controller works though.

my xbox controller doesnt work, as others have said. so how would I go about getting a ps3 controller to work? is it a wired one and can i pick up any cheap ps3 controller?

The sixaxis app does recognize my ps3 controller (afaik there are only wireless with optional cable), but only with cable plugged in. Bluetooth does not work, though the controller
has the right master adress.
Ok the problem seems to be the pairing. If paired from the tablet, it wont work... if paired from the pc, it works.

see I know sod all about the ps3 pad, I dont even know what pairing on the PC means or how you would set it up...

Hello!
Did anyone connect SteelSeries Free controller to the Tab S? I'm thinking about getting one and I would like to make sure that it will work.

Trying to pair red samurai wireless tablet controller with my tab s
the bluetooth can see the device, but when i select it to pair the device with my tablet, it asks me to confirm the PIN code for the device, which is displayed when i select to pair. But it fails to pair every time because I don't see any dialog box or anything pop up to enter the PIN code to pair successfully.

red samurai controller (GameStop)
Using the red samurai controller with all playstore emulators works well but with a little lag between button press and action.
BTW GameStop has it for 8 bucks and the tab recognizes it via Bluetooth no problem

The PS3 controller is the best way to go for me...
I bought the red samurai for $8 also just to play emulators..
The controller paid with no problems and I was able to map all the keys but the lag from button press to In game action was unbareable
The PS3 was fussy to set up but it's more 1to1 responsive..

If you are using the red samurai v2 you do not need blue imz, it should just work.. or at least it does for me. I also have not noticed any input lag even vs a usb controller I was using over usb otg until I decided I wanted to be able to charge and use a controller at the same time. I have also used the same red samurai v2 on my win 8.1 htpc just for testinf and it paired right away and worked with near 0 input lag.

Im just using sixaxis controller

Using a ipega 9023 version 2 with the red buttons ......awwwweeeessssooommeee

I installed bluetooth autoconnect and then bluetooth terminal which is in wears Polish or Russian or so but I used it to scan for connecting devices and it saw the device... then went to bluetooth settings in tab s and it stood there ready to pair with !!! Me happy !!!

Sixaxis works on the Tab4, are you trying to do it by USB or Bluetooth?

I'm currently using the Moga Pro in Mode B and it works really well. Haven't had any issues with it. I've also heard the $15 GameStop one works well too.

Just Moga Pro

Edit*
Actually from what I know all of the Moga besides the Pocket one should work. As long as it has the Mode B.

Does anyone know how to put the playpad pro controller into player no 2? When i connect two controllers with bluetooth they both control player 1. The manual doesnt say how to switch to player two, nor could i find anything about it online.

i havent tested two controllers on the nvdia shield tablet but i had the same issue on my FireTV, you have to purchase an official controller so it can be read as the second controller correctly.

I'm using the Moga Pocket, it works well. Tested on Dead Trigger 2 and various racing games, will test on Trine 2, and other Nvidia Controller enhanced games later when I get off work.

I'm sorry but I have to disagree. OUYA controller works just fine; confirmed by me
It just doesn't work out of the box, you have to have root and the attached file to the keylayouts folder. Don't forget to change permissions to rw-r--r--
The only problem is that there is no start button. May be someone can manipulate the file into making the big U button press start.

I've given in an ordered the Nvidia controller.
OK been using sixaxis app and ps3 controller with some success, although come across some issues. Half Life 2 seems to work but its a bit odd. The D pad works fine to select in the main menu but not in the sub menus, also the other problem is there appears to be no way of changing weapons which is an issue after picking up a gun there's no way of getting through wood blocking door ways. Anyone got a fix?

I stand corrected, thank you ahmadshawki.
1.) Root Device, Install Root Explorer
2.) Download Vendor_2836_Product_0001.kl
3.) place Vendor_2836_Product_0001.kl in /system/usr/keylayout/ in Nvidia Shield
4.) set permissions on kl to rw-r--r--
5.) Reboot Shield Tablet, needed for kl file to take affect.
6.) Put Ouya Controller in pair mode and pair with tablet
7.) Done

The Nyko playpad portable worked fine me also...what exactly do I need for my tablet to work with my wired x box 360 controller to work?

should just be an otg cable.

I am using the Nyko Playpad Pro

I purchased this controller from Tmart, a ChiCom, and made sure it was shipping from one of their US warehouses. Otherwise, it will take 4 to 12 weeks for delivery, due to customs. It arrived in under a week.
It works great with an OTG cable. I played Bard's Tale from start to finish with this controller, mirroring the screen on my TV. It's got a 9 foot long cable or so. My only real complaint with it is that the headphone jack in the bottom is non-functional, they even made it too small to insert a headphone jack into. Otherwise, it works just fine. All the buttons function well with solid feedback, none of them are mushy. The large X button in the center functions as the home button and the right stick controls a mouse when you are at your homescreen. I'd prefer the left stick control the mouse but I can live with the right stick doing it.

[Q] HDMI to micro USB cabke not working

Hi!
so i just got a cable to conect my moto g 1032xt to my tv. For some reason it is not working. I tried with my mother's S5 an works just fine.
I went to the shop after and i was told that the phone lacks something and that is why it does not wirk. Is that true or there is something i can do to make it work?

None of the recent Motorola phones, doesn't support MHL, therefore you cannot connect it to a TV via MHL to HDMI cable.
On the other hand, S5 supports MHL, that's why it's working.
