call me crazy but i love the aluminum back :D looks amazing and feels very high quality. As long as my wifi is as good as it is atm i wouldnt want it any other way^^ I mean who cares about AGPS on a wifi only device anyway? Its nice that they put it in the prime, but you cant except good performance from it without network.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] AMoosa:
Gary keys already said itss not the aluminum backing thatss causing the issue
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BTrack:
It's Not The Aluminum Back Cover

Most of us do not have issues with WiFi, Bluetooth, or GPS and we have the same aluminum cover as those with issues. I've seen my GPS go from great to nil as I "upgraded" from .11 to .14. To solve it I rooted it, went back to .11 and now I get 11-12 satellites indoors.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mcoupe:
I thought it was just the opposite. I thought I read in an interveiw by Engadet with Gary, and he said the aluminum back plate was the cause...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
Yes, this. Since ASUS is now offering refunds, nobody has anything to complain about. If your Prime doesn't work for you, return it. Nothing could be simpler.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wifesabitch:
I have aluminium backing and it's works and looks great. No solution needed.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] anti09:
I got the impression it was both. The aluminum backplate does cause signal attenuation, and is without a doubt a factor with the GPS and WiFi problems the TP experiences, regardless of whether or not Gary and Asus wants to admit it.

However, I get the impression the backplate isn't the whole story for a few reasons. First, we've seen a great deal of variability in signal strength and performance. Considering everybody (presumably) has the exact same backplate, the wide range of signal performance has to be affected by other factors as well.

Additionally, Asus may have made some mistakes, but they aren't stupid. They know full well that aluminum blocks signal strength, and I very much doubt they engineered, tested, built and shipped a flagship product without ever taking the time to see if the back might be prohibitively blocking signals.

Finally, we've seen that software can and does affect everyone differently.

My personal theory is that we are seeing two sets of hardware- an initial rollout, and a slightly tweaked second batch. The variation between the two would explain why some people without problems started seeing problems with the .13 and .14 patches, and vice versa.

Just recently purchased a PS3 controller after sir_earl was able to emulate native gamepad support in his Sixaxis app. After using it very successfully with my Prime, I find that I am pretty much only playing games with gamepad support. Currently I rotate back and forth between GTA III, Shadowgun THD, Riptide GP, and Cordy. How about anyone else? Please list any and all games with native gamepad support. Also, and someone please correct me if I'm wrong, if a game has Xperia Play support then it will also respond as if it has the same aforementioned gamepad support. And if a mod deems it worthy enough I could see this being pinned at the top. I promise to have it nicely formatted. :)

I would like to keep this list to only games people have actually tested in person. Thanks.

You can add Sleepy Jack and Shine Runner to that list. I've also been looking around for games that have native gamepad support. Some work, but not very well.

Basically any good emulator will have gamepad support. I still use the oid series but finding them troublesome on 4.0. Fpse is an obvious choice for a sixaxis controller as well.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] clouds5:
If you can map your gamepad buttons to android keyboard input there's a lot of games you're able to control. For example many work with the xperia play layout. e.g. Sonic 4 Episode 1. Also the non tegra version of Samurai II works this way.

Then for other games like Zenonia series, there is a specific layout, that can be found in the web.

I was really hoping gameloft would jump on this sooner or later. Their games suffer the most from touch only controls imho. They screem for gamepad support^^
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Kashban:
Somewhat a pity that you cannot use Gamepads on the Riptide GP Demo. As in "test if your controller is compatible before purchasing".
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rsjyns:
Along with this can we also get a list of emulators?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] irishtexmex:
If you're willing to do a short write up that is easy and clear to understand, I would love to host/format it and add it to the list under an appropriate header.

Sure thing. The only emulator I've used so far is N64oid, which requires a touch profile in Sixaxis and therefore doesn't meet the standards this list requires. Remember though, I only want to add games/emulators that have actually been tested and verified to work natively, no workarounds.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] irishtexmex:
It really is a well done game. I was hesitant at first because racing games in general have never been my thing, but then I saw it was done by the same people who made Hydro Thunder, and I used to play the hell out of that game in the arcades growing up.

What controller are you trying to use with it?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dannb:
The emulator scene on the Android Market seems to be fairly fluid. Sometimes a bunch of them get taken down, and other replace them. Just search in the market and go for the highest ranked one for the emulator du jour.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] irishtexmex:
Hey, I must've glossed over this the first time around. Looking at its reviews on the Market, it seems like people have been having compatibility and controller issues with ICS?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hunter99507:
Sonic episode one works. The d pad and the r3 to jump.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] irishtexmex:
R3? As in clicking in the right analog stick? That's upsetting. It would obviously be way better if it were one of the four main buttons. Oh well. I know Muffin Knight has sort of worked for me, and similar to Sonic's R3 it uses the "Up" button to jump instead of a face button. I ended up making a touch profile because it just works better.

I'll add it to the list though. I guess that means Sonic 4 works as well?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] irishtexmex:
Jett Tailfin Racers THD came out today. I've had my eye on this one in the Tegra Market since January as it promised Mario Kart-style play with native controller support. Haven't heard any opinions on it yet though.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
this thread is now linked in my sticky thread. The Official Tegra3/Prime Gamer's Thread. ;) help the op build up this list if games you come across meet guidelines in his op. this lists, especially mines, aren't easy to put together. I only use the prime tablet itself for my list. very long sessions of copy n paste..lol. my dock will be here soon though.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] irishtexmex:
Personal testing has shown me that both recently released Canabalt HD and Gunman Clive have full native gamepad support.

However, the two games are listed as only having specifically Xperia Play Optimization/Support (though Gunman Clive says it has support for other input methods, but doesn't list them). Gunman Clive, in particular, has an options screen similar to Shadowgun THD where you edit the controls by clicking on whichever gamepad button you prefer to use. Very nice.

What I would like to take away from this is that Xperia Play Optimization means native gamepad support exists to some extent. It may not be full support, however, so I would categorize it along with Muffin Knight if the implementation is not ideal. Please test any Xperia Play Optimized games you might already have with your controller and let me know the results. Thanks. :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] josue85:
Alright folks, I spent my afternoon installing and testing games. All tested using a ps3 controller (and yes, I have an app purchasing problem. As far as vices go, it could be worse). If I get time over the weekend, I'll try some more games.

Full Support

Eve of Genesis HD: Yes, Square works as the confirm button, L1 pulls up the menu. Works well.

Edge: Yes!

Edge Extended: Yes!

Overkill: Yes, you might have to disable the back key in the options, though. Otherwise firing would make the game exit for me. Otherwise, worked great.

Pac-Man Championship Edition: Yes!

Radiant HD: Everything works, even switching weapons.

Samuraii Vengence II: It technically works, but the button mapping on the ps3 is terrible. You have to use select and start to attack, with clicking the right stick to roll.

Symphony of Eternity: Yes, Square works as the confirm button, L1 pulls up the menu. Works well.

Zen Pinball: Yes, you can control the flippers. Haven't figured out how to launch the ball, but being able to use the flippers is good enough, IMO.

Zenonia 3: Yes. I would assume 4 as well, but haven't verified yet.

Partial

Final Space: Can control the ship, but no button will fire

Doodle Jump: Menus work, but the game is obviously built for tilt control

Impossible: Jump works, but no way to set progress flag.

R-Type: You can control the ship with d-pad or left analog, but no button fires. Playable if you set the option to auto fire.

Reckless Getaway: Almost perfect. Car controls great, but no way to use special pickups other than tapping on the screen.

Didn't Work:

Age of Zombies: No

Shogun HD: No

Pinball Arcade HD: No

9mm: No

Fifa 12: No

Pac-Man: No

Konas Crate: No

Kill Box: No

Super Monkey Ball 2: No

A Game With Balls: No

Crazy Rings: No

Backyard Zombies: No

Block Breaker 3 HD: No

Asphalt 6: No

Carnival Pinball: No

Dead on Arrival: No

Emissary of War: No

Heist: No

GT Racing Motor Acadamy: No

Night Ride: No

Meteor Blitz: No

Grabatron: No

Roboto: No

Sinister Planet: No

Smuggle Truck: No

Super Stickman Golf: No

Samarai vs Zombies: No

Chicken Bandit: No

Trial Extreme 2: No

Zombie Wonderland 2: No

how you get gta3 to work properly with controller. my controller can move the character around but the buttons don't do anything. plus I didn't where to map actual hardware controller buttons in gt3 settings.

with gunman Clive, my controller works but the button for jump is merged with shoot. so i can shoot by pressing a button and if I press the button for jump, it jumps and shoots at the same time..lol
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] irishtexmex:
Awesome post man, thanks. I'll get to editing the list later tonight. (Made your text small so the quote wasn't so huge.)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] irishtexmex:
I'm going to make a Google Docs of some sort that lists all the controls & button mappings for each game.

But for GTA III, are you using a USB gamepad that's plugged in or PS3 controller via the Sixaxis app? If you're a USB gamepad that's plugged in you'll have to wait a few hours for me to update that google doc. If you're using the Sixaxis app you need to check for two things. Go to Preferences -> Gamepad settings and:

Make sure Enable Gamepad is checked.

Click Edit Mappings and change:

- "Cross" to "A"

- "Circle" to "B"

- "Square" to X"

- "Triangle" to "Y"

For some reason the developer of Sixaxis has a few of those mixed up.

im using an old pc usb dual analog stick controller i found laying around(i had forgot i had one). Its a Saitek. It works well for most of my emulators like snesoid & Neodroid(controller works great for playing the many fighting games i have on this). it has a 6 button layout. buttons are numbered versus letters or shapes. i also have two trigger buttons. in those two games i previously listed in other post, how do i map my controller? i can only run in gt3 but buttons don't do anything.

i also can get my controller to work with onlive gaming. is there a way to really activate it or get onlive to recognize it. I'm only able to scroll through menus and such in onlive but when it comes to playing the games, it doesn't do anything. touch controls & my keyboard dock works well on the games.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] josue85:
"Another World" also works great (and is half off right now, if you're interested).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] irishtexmex:
Two things to address.

1) You could post a picture of your controller and that would help things somewhat. However, I think as long as you use a "unofficial" controller of some sort then you'll never be able to guarantee compatibility. I really recommend scrounging up as much money as you can and buying a used PS3 controller from your local gaming store. It's wireless, you can use it with a wire, you don't need root to use it (though this method requires connecting with the wire first every time), and you get the added benefit of being able to set up touch profiles with Sixaxis.

2) OnLive only works in games with the official OnLive controller. However, there is an apk floating around of a modded version of OnLive that supports all gamepads. You can find it in this thread here. The caveat is that the guy who did it hasn't released a new version since 1.2, and OnLive is currently on 1.3 which fixed a lot of bugs.

I read this post in a tab that was immediately after reading about this game. I'll add it to the list, and I'm excited to try it!

Youuuu said it. I'm really excited too. Rockstar did a *fantastic* job with their Android release and gamepad compatibility.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] irishtexmex:
To add in regards to Another World...

It looks like the developer has released another quality game (I now remember reading about it a few months ago) that has both Xperia Play optimization and Zeemote optimization. This is probably a good sign that it's gamepad-compatible if anyone is interested in that type of game and willing to try it out for me.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] josue85:
I also purchased Virtual Tennis to see if that would work (since it has support for xperia play), but the darn game will not launch (force closes on start). If anyone gets that to work, I'd love to hear how.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] irishtexmex:
Keep us updated if you hear anything. That was an Xperia-exclusive for a couple of months. I played the bejeezus out of Virtua Tennis on the original Xbox. Would love to get that going on the Prime. For some reason there's a dearth of good sports games.

If people only realized they could play Madden with a gamepad on a tablet they could take with them wherever they went...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] guardzero:
You can add these to the list as well-

RPG Aeon Avenger

RPG Eve of the Genesis

RPG Grinsia

RPG Symphony of Eternity

RPG Alphadia

Zenonia 4

All of these work with the ps3 controller for me with no issues.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] stanglifemike:
Where are the controller mappings saved once they're created within a game's settings/preferences menu? I still have not been able to get any of the..map files, that I've downloaded from others on here, to work at all and I've placed them in many location per what I've read but still no luck... Thanks for any info about it!

***EDIT: Finally figured it out, and of course I was being a noob and overlooking an obvious step. Lol. The more I learn about Android over the years the more I overlook the simple stuff and start digging deep thinking it must be something more in depth I'm not doing :facepalm
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dragonithe:
Hello, sorry if this question has already been answerd somewere else.

But when I use my wireless xbox controler with the pc dongle connected to the dock and I play a games as GTA III or shadowgun the screen starts to turn to the left and there's not much i can do about it other than press a button that makes the screen turn to the right.

I know my controllers have a problem with the deadzone being at about 20% of the stick movement. But in games as cordy or sonic I don't have the problem that the charter starts to run to the left or at least I can make them stand in still when I centre my stick.

Is there something I can do about or is the only option to buy a diffrent controler?

I have a Power A wireless/usb PS3 controller and I can do everything, except pull the trigger and shoot someone. I haven't found a way to remap the buttons, yet, but I am thinking a small update by RockStar would fix this problem for everyone. The exclusivity of having to own specially branded game-pads is the reason I have not played Max Payne Mobile since I purchased it. My fault for assuming, supports gamepads, meant ALL GAMEPADS!!! lol
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] theandies:
My Gamestop controller won't work with Dead Trigger either. I can move him around with the joystick but none of the buttons work execpt for the escape button that exits the game. The controller mapping doesn't work at all. Very frustrating as I paid good money for my GS controller that doesn't work on some games. I tried one of my Wii controllers, same thing.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bjones.2385:
I can do everything, except shoot. When I pull both triggers and bumpers it cycles through my weapons. I can interact, jump, stunt moves, but do not have any access to bullet-time, nor fire control. Very weird.

B]To install a Custom ROM - (need to wipe)

1. Download your chosen ROM by other developers in the development threads and copy the ZIP file to your SD Card ROOT directory

delete the PD58IMG file

2. Start clockworkmod recovery (instructions above) REMOVE BATT. INSERT BATT

VOL DWN + PWR

goes into bootloader, by this time you have removed the pd58img file. select recovery

first wipe data then cache.

4. Navigate to "install zip from sdcard" using the Volume Down button and press select (power button to select)

5. Then select "Choose zip from sdcard" (pic a popular one that way u have support.)

6. Then select "your_chosen_rom.zip"

7. Then select "Yes - install your_chosen_rom.zip" to confirm

8. Then go back

9. Then reboot.
