Generic Controller

Has anyone had luck with a generic ps3 controller? I received a generic one from a friend that works but I don't know how to find another matching one that will work with my forge tv. If anyone has some links to ebay/amazon items that might have a higher chance of working. I was able to get some others to work on my phone but on my forgeTV and NexusPlayer had issues connecting consistently.

Here is a picture of one that I got working http://imgur.com/a/bUPk4#0
[Android General] oldman20:
Please help me? can i fix it or must switch to another ROM base?
[Android General] oldman20:
So sad, must i give it up, right!:crying:
[Android General] danarama:
I have a question about some of the settings, so I'm not sure if this is the correct place to ask, but if not, please let me know. This seemed the most appropriate thread in my search results.

I have a touch profile for Modern combat 4. I've found that the sensitivity means I cannot turn around very quickly, but upping the sensitivity makes smaller movements almost impossible. Is there a rule of thumb whereby I can find an appropriate amount of exponential movement to increase as I up the sensitivity overall, to keep the centre of the screen / anologue stick about the same sensitivity as I have now?

Also, what is increasing the setting actually doing? Is it increasing the radius of the lower sensitivity's "reach" across the screen, or is it increasing the amount of lowered sensitivity within a set or given radius?

I'm not even sure if using this is worth while since the sixaxis controller is analogue anyway, but whilst playing FPS games, I tend to "panic" so I find it difficult to execute small movements on the stick.

Any advice gratefully received.
[Android General] oldman20:
In my case, MC auto native gamepad, not need setup or mapping anything. Just plug and play, and it's fine[emoji1]

[Android General] danarama:
This doesn't work for me in Native. Not all functions work. I have to map.

I think I'm just going to up the sensitivity a little then get used to it, then up it a bit more and work like that
[Android General] oldman20:
I have a question: what exactly problem with the bluetooth connect between Sixaxis with Phone? while the bluetooth connect between Speaker with Phone is OK, without problem?
[Android General] oldman20:
i realize that Local Bluetooth Adress provide by Sixaxis and System is difference on custom rom, which cant pair. while on stock rom, they the same. Any idea?:silly:

Hi [MENTION=4183459]sir_earl[/MENTION]

I sent you an email but I'll post here too. Please let me know if you need any help troubleshooting Android 6.0 issues, if you're planning to update
[Android General] xfullmetal17:
Seconding this, I'm getting AVC denial errors in my logcat, which points to something with SELinux I think. Wonder if something changed with how input devices are handled.
[Android General] danarama:
Are you permissive? I was set to enforcing..forgot on my.kernel, that's an additional zip.
[Android General] xfullmetal17:
Made sure I was permissive, yes. As it is enough other stuff's broken I went back to 5.1.1, maybe I'll try again after the first security patch or two.
[Android General] meldroc:
Has anyone else been able to get Sixaxis working in Marshmallow? I'm trying to get it working on my Nexus 7 (2013), running Marshmallow, rooted, but I get errors that look much like danarama's screenshot above. Worked in 5.1.1. Is the driver just not updated for Marshmallow?
[Android General] matt1515:
Also not working Nexus 5 stock rooted with chainfire's boot.img tried it on enforcing and permissive hopefully a fix is released soon.
[Android General] oldman20:
i even cant make it work on Lollipop custom rom. Maybe cause bluetooth mac adress always change when turn on/off:confused:

im stuck to find method to fix it, so i back to Kitkat stock rom:crying:
[Android General] danarama:
Works fine on lollipop here. Mac address is always the same for me
[Android General] oldman20:
yeah, that's problem for me, cause custom lollipop rom for my phone is have bug with mac adress, i think so:crying:
[Android General] Everflow:
I recently updated my Nexus 7 (2013) with marshmallow, installed elementalX kernel and rooted with supersu 2.52.

Later i found out that sixaxis is not working anymore.

When i try to start the service i get these bluetooth related errors:

I suspect the main cause must be somehow the new permission system in marshmallow.

After some googling i found this :

It would be nice if the developer made an announcement regarding marshmallow functionality, is he working on a fix or is it not possible to make it work on Android M at all?
[Android General] These2droids:
Marshmallow killed my sixaxis too. I will b restoring my backup of 5.1.1.
[Android General] ahmedsalah83:
Any updates from the developer regarding marshmallow?

I want to update my nexus player to marshmallow, and this is the only thing holding me back.
[Android General] zaf_4:
Hello i have android tv box M8 S802, i tried yesterday with a replica ps3 gamepad and it didnt work. I am wondering if i purchase this one -->http://www.amazon.co.uk/Spartan-Gear-Wireless-Bluetooth-Controller/dp/B00VFVJ2H0

will it work or i will have the same issue? Just wondering if someone has the same and its working. Unfortunatelly i dont have any genuine ps3 gamepad to check on it.
[Android General] Lunity101:
can someone post what permissions they get from their apk? mine is asking for full permissions to all device features and storage, auto start at boot, retrieving running apps, and also reading, modifying and deleting contents of the usb storage. seems a bit much to me, not sure if I should install since the apk came from the web..
[Android General] danarama:
These are all pretty obvious.

auto start at boot - you can set the app to run at start up

retrieving running apps - you can set the app to load a specific profile for a specific running app.

reading, modifying and deleting contents of the usb storage - profiles need to be saved to, read from and deleted from any storage device that you decide to save them to.

When you say "came from the web", I hope you mean "purchased from play"
[Android General] KSLevel11:
Hope, developer didn't abandon this project...
[Android General] Ludikhris:
Has anyone tried looking in settings --> about device --> status --> Bluetooth ID. Writing that down. Connecting via OTG cable and then pairing with the address previously written down?

Sure it requires that you have an OTG cable to connect directly with, but it should work that way. My understanding is that there's just more hoops to jump through to get the BT ID programmatically (if it's even possible at all now) so by grabbing the address manually yourself and pairing the device over OTG you should be fine to disconnect and use the controller wirelessly with the app after.

EDIT: I tried this, it doesn't work. Manual pairing won't work since the server won't start due to the locked out Bluetooth access.
[Android General] KazeoX:
Already trying that :crying: and still failed
[Android General] REDISBLOOD:
So that means no workaround for MM.
[Android General] Brabbit602:

[Android General] k.bergmann2:
well, i'm using the bluetooth auto connect app and when i'm trying to connect the ds 3 with my phone it asks me to prompt a pairing code (0000 or 1234 or the like). thing is, i don't have the code. any ideas?

I have a tf700 with katkiss 6.0.1, and am able to get the device to connect but it doesn't seem to see it as an input device, at least the keys wont map.

in catlog I am getting

bta_hh_co_data : Error: fd = 128, ready 0, len = 10

I have also sent a message to the developer

If anyone has any ideas it would be awesome to make this work with my tablet,

However I did want to share that I sent an email to the developer.
[Android General] Vinnom:
From what I read, he just needs to update the api level to sdk 23. I don't know how to do that, if I knew, I could try, at least for personal usage

Does anyone know what progress has been made to support marshmallow?
[Android General] Wagnelles:
Can't believe I bought this app and a PS3 controller support just to find out it's not compatible with MM.

I am pissed. A lot.
[Android General] Roy Hacken:
Support for my samsung galaxy s7 edge

Hi Sir_Earl

I have installed the apps (sixaxis controller& the checker) however the checker gives me no repsonse. This means that there is no support for my phone I assume? Do you think there will be in the near future?
[Android General] Sillik:
Damn it, I was using this app everyday, and now my phone is on MM! :(

Seeing the lack of feedback from the dev both here and on his own site, it looks like it is time to buy a new controller...

Anyone knows where to find a smartphone clip for the SteelSeries Stratus XL ? It is apparently the best controller but lacks a proper holder, which was really handy with my DS3!
[Android General] Wagnelles:
any news so far?
[Android General] Sillik:
Nope!

Doesn't look good...

I'll probably buy a Moga pro... :-/
[Android General] Wagnelles:
If only I had the money for it. I spent everything I had buying a 64GB memory card, this APP and a DS3 support for my phone.
[Android General] Sillik:
There is a new hope! The dev posted some good news on his website:

Small issue with pairing via Bluetooth...

Actually a big one, it just won't connect to my controller.

I have one that came with my PlayStation, actually, I have two controllers and both are different variants of the same model. One says it draws 300mA and the other 500.

The model is CECHZC2E.

I followed the tutorial to connect, but it just won't.

Sometimes the 4 LEDs will flicker faster than usual though, don't know why that happens.

Anyways, both my controllers will not connect to sixaxis. They don't work on SCP for PC neither, and I know the dongle is compatible.

Bluetooth itself shows the PlayStation controller, but it will ask a password to connect, and no password works.

Any ideas? Is there even support for this controller?
[Android General] LiamAtkins90:
Did you change master address of the controller using PC?

An alternative method is, you can connect an OTG (On-The-Go) cable to the phones / tablet USB port and grab the controller's charging cable and plug the cable into the OTG.. when it connects all 4 lights blink on the controller to let you know it's connected, then open the Six Axis apk, click the bottom right box I think, named "pair" click the address in the box to update the address of the device into the controller... so now, both phone / tablet & controller have this Bluetooth address..

Click start wait for it to configure Bluetooth, and when you see "listening for controller" click the controllers home button (so the 4 light's blink again) and it * should * automatically connect.

1 question, it is an official controller right?
[Android General] oziboy:
Well, it's not an offbrand one.

It should be the official ones as one came with my PS3 and I got the second one later on, second hand.

They both say SIXAXIS and DualShock 3 on the front.

On my phone, I can't use OTG so that's kind of a problem as it can't power any device, and the USB host mode was removed through software in the MM update of the phone.

It wouldn't work anyway, but I can connect it to PC through USB.

I did set the mac adress when pairing through PC to the one sixaxis gave me.

It just stays there at "listening for devices", and I press the PS button but it'll keep blinking until it stops

On SCP, for PC it actually did kind of work, but it wouldn't register whatsoever.

As in, it would communicate, the first LED would go on, but that was it, I couldn't press any buttons.
[Android General] tehsalt:
Sixaxis controller v0.9.0 has been released i believe 3 weeks ago and I just got it working on a new marshmallow install with no more PIE errors. Give it a try :good:
[Android General] KobiP:
My Phone is a Google Pixel (5") with Android 7.1. I have the Sixaxis Compatibility Checker App installed in Version 0.7.9. On my PC (Win10) I have the Sixaxis Pair Tool in Version 0.3.0 installed.

What I do on my PC:

Start the Pair Tool

Connect the Ps4 Controller via USB

Doublecheck that the Current Master is the same as the App tells me on my Phone

What I do on my Phone

BT is off

PS4 Controller is off

Start Comp.Check App

Press the red Start Button, it says Your device appears to be supported

The Log Says Attempting connection method 1..., Driver Starting, Succesfully configured bluetooth, Listening for controllers...

Now I press shortly the PS Button on my Controller

The controller Blinks in a light blue or blueish white

the light goes off again after 2-3 sec. Sometimes the Light goes stable on for 2-3sec and the off.

Thats it. Do you have any advice on what to do now?
[Android General] samsammobile:
Hi,

I have this weird situation: I am using a fake ps3 controller (Subsonic Neo controller), I've paired it via bluetooth, it worked normally at the beginning for one day. I could play any game on my Galaxy Note 4 N910H running 5.1.1. firmware , could use the mouse emulation, navigate in the menus, I guess every functionality was OK. Then for no reason, it stopped working, it was connected, I was playing and quitted a game, then a few minutes after I tried to reconnect it didn't work anymore.

The app is showing that the controller is connected but the buttons just don't do anything.

I've been through Every single menu in the app, I uninstalled the app, reinstalled and then left it untouched for months.

Yesterday I decided to give it a new try, I tried, didn't work of course, then I updated the app to 1.1.1, it worked ! ... For like 10 minutes. Psx emulator gaming was perfect until I disconnected the controller by pressing stop in the sixaxis app, and when I tried to reconnect, it doesn't work.

Same issue, the app shows connected, the controller light is on, doesn't blink or anything, it just don't work ingame.

It is so weird, I haven't tried hard reset yet or factory reset. I am planning on flashing a Marshmallow stock rom this week and will try again.

But does anyone understand why it would work at first use, you disconnect after playing and it doesn't play anymore ?
[Android General] samsammobile:
Finally got it working.

I updated to Marshmallow stock rom, rooted then retried, it worked.

Still don't understand what the problem was at the first place. Could it be kernel related ? Because I flashed a custom kernel with Lollipop.
[Android General] drckml:
My controller would just stop responding out of nowhere even though it's still connected, sometimes the right analog would just moves on it's own. I've tried two different official ps3 controllers and both problems persisted.

Anyone has a similar issue like this? My device is Redmie Note 3 Pro running on Nougat. A fix would really be appreciated .
[Android General] Deemo13:
Sorry to revive an old thread, but I am hoping for some help in configuring my Sixaxis app on my Zenfone 2.

As I do not have an OTG cable yet, but I do have a Zenfone 2 with CM13 on it, I figured I could go with the root and PC method. I enabled root in Developer Settings. I then changed the bluetooth address of my PS3 controller via the Sixaxis Pair Tool. I've also had success with the controller connecting. The application says "connected" and the controller has the "Player 1" light lit up.

After that though, I have gotten nothing to work. I've been mainly trying to use My Boy emaulator using the controller input as well as the touch emulation and neither seems to read the inputs from the PS3 controller.

Is there some sort of application I can use to test the controller to see if a signal is being sent at all? I'm about to try my other controller as well, but as far as I know this controller works just fine.

Thanks all!
