Hello all,

Slight problem here, maybe someone can help me with.

Brand new Sony (original) controller, but it's the $10 cheaper Walmart exclusive color. I used the Sixaxis pair tool to manually put in my nexus 7's bluetooth address. Unplug it from the computer, start up the Sixaxis Controller program on the 7, click start, press the home button on the controller, and... nothing. No flashing lights, and the 7 still says "listening for controllers".

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance for your help!
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] XtracerD:
I'm having the exact same issue, my guess is a brand new controller needs to be paired to a PS3 first to respond to the PS-button presses? Any info on this is appreciated. I don't own a PS3 myself

EDIT: I've gotten the LEDs flashing by pairing the controller with MotionJoy now. Sidenote: I've used a different controller on my Nexus 4 before - so it should work.

how do i install the sixaxis pair tool on the mac
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] bstrain74:
Ugh, I'm also having an issue pairing my PS3 controller. I had it paired once but cannot get it to pair again.

For starters I have an odroid x2, with JB 4.1 rooted. Like I said, I had it paired once.

It's an original controller. I've ran the pairing tool on my windows pc, not sure if that was needed as it says on the Play Store "Android 3.1+ users can also pair directly on their devices via USB." Not sure what that means.

Anyone have any ideas?? The Sixaxis app will just sit there "Listening for controllers". Pressing the PS3 button and all 4 lights blink.

sixaxis controller has stopped working since update

hi.

i have been using the sixaxis controller app for a while now on my lg 4x hd, running ICS (via bluetooth due to my phones lack of OTG). it has worked perfect since installing for navigating the phone, games, etc...but has now suddenly stopped working.

i believe that this loss of function correlates with a recent update of the app from the play store.

now when i load the app and press start i get the error:

error: failed to configure bluetooth.

attempting to close server...

disconnected.

could not start driver. check that the driver has been given permission to run super user.

i checked and the program still had SU permission (as when it worked fine).

i have tried deleting and re-installing, and clearing and re-establishing the SU permission, to no avail.

the weird thing is that when installing and trying the sixaxis controller compatibility checker, it passes the check and connects to the controller (recognising key button presses, etc...).

has anyone else had this problem? and if so how did you sort it out?

i'm gutted about this, as i love being able to play games on the big screen or using the gameklip to play while i'm waiting for the bus, etc...

any advice/help would be appreciated.

cheers in advance!

* update: i have now updated the 4x to JB and rooted. but getting exact same error as before. still working on the compatibility checker though. *

sixaxis permission

I rooted my galaxy tab 2 and downloaded sixaxis controller, but when I open superuser to set permission for the sixaxis app, it doesnt show up in the apps list, does anyone know why its not showing up in the apps list ?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] polo79:
I don't know if it has been discussed before but I just want to add that I had issues getting my controller to work because it was still paired with my PS3 and the PS3 was on. Turned off PS3 and all was smooth selling from there. Just FYI.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] eastbayarb:
Anyone know if there is a Wiki for downloading sixaxis profiles? Sixaxisofpower.com hasn't been working correctly for a while now (at least for uploading profiles).
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] S1distic:
Thanks for the guide man, everything works.

I have one little annoying thing though, my left analogue sometimes freezes randomly during a game and I have to move the right one quickly to be able to get the left one working again. Any idea if there is a way to fix that? I'm using an HTC one x

BTW if playing games that support native controller, make sure the enable controller box is checked in sixaxis.

If playing games that doesn't support the co troller natively, make sure that box is unchecked. I was having random freeze because of that :) hope that helps
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] kapteg92:
Hi everyone,

Did anymore try sixaxis emulation touch mapping with the galaxy s4? I can create and save a profile but then no buttons or analog stick respond in the game.

I am root and the bluetooth drivers work, i can connect my ps3 controller to my galaxy s4 with sixaxis and i can even play games that support native controller. But no way to make the emulation touch mapping working.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] butler0607:
I can't get this to work on my nexus 7. Rooted, running sentinel ROM with trinity kernel. I know it can work because it did first thing, after turning it off then though, haven't been able to reconnect as it just staying on the 'looking for devices' line.

Any help would be appreciated!!!
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] seymour_butts:
Maybe you need to reconfigure the game pad master thing ;) that thing we do connected to pc
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] butler0607:
Thanks, I've tried this several times with no avail. Often if I 're-plug the controller into the computer, the address won't actually have saved as the new one, which would also explain why it won't connect to the nexus... any suggestions of how to fix this?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] seymour_butts:
well, im no expert... have u tried any other gamepad?

sorry for the basic questions, but thats how we started trying to find the issues :)
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] butler0607:
No, this is the only one, but I have no access to any others as I bought it specifically for the nexus 7. But it is an official Sony, sixaxis, dualshock controller :) thanks for any help you can give!
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Eve_brea:
How to? Really? Its simple. Get the app called ps3pairingtool;connect ps3 controller to tablet via USB and otg cable;hit search. The app will find your controller and set its Bluetooth address properly so the sixaxis controller app finds and uses it. Done.

I have both an official and non-official controller and it worked for both with no issue.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] seymour_butts:
he mentioned the post before than he already tried that... at least thats what ive tried to tell :) the master thing:silly:
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Eve_brea:
well, i did say to use an app, not the pc. Once i discovered that an app could set the adress, i threw out the helper tool for the pc.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] butler0607:
Sorry for slow response (I've had exams and stuff), but the app wouldn't work either, the 'changed' MAC address wouldn't stay that way and it caused my device to reboot twice!

Hi guys, I'm new here and I would need some help... Sixaxis Controller works on my Asus Memo Pad HD 7 perfect with games with native support, but when I try mapping games like Dungeon Hunter 4, Order and Chaos Online, it just won't work... Every button does something else than what is supposed to do... I don't know if I have to change something in the settings or not... If you don't have time to explain what to do... I would be happy if someone could do the key mapping for this games and post them here... Thanks, hope to hear from you soon. Ciao from Italy!
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] KSLevel11:
Hello!

I have problem with analog sticks in FPse using original PS3 Sixaxis Controller. I bought an app to connect PS3 controller to phone via bluetooth. All keys works good, analog sticks too, but their "sensivity" is not good. It is visible especially while playing Gran Turismo 2 - if I move analog to right or left , it doesn't work "from zero" - stick must be moved to "the end" to start working.

So, I can not take turns with precision in GT2, but this is only an example.

In other words, analog works as d-pad.

I hope, you understand what is the problem.

Is there any way or fix to setup analog stick to work "from zero" - (small move to right - car starts to turn right, but this is litlle turn. Move analog to the end - maximum turn to right/left).

How the analog sticks works for you?

Thanks in advance.

Greetings.

No connection after hitting ps button on the controller, just blinking.

Can anyone offer any help?

[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Dog Rox:
Hi ItalianPSYKiDO, I have the Asus memo pad HD 7 also and I for the life of me cannot get the sixaxis controller app, to acknowledge the tablet. It keeps saying Bluetooth not configured. Also when I turn on the controller it seems like the hd7 automatically ask for Bluetooth request pin number for the controller, because I've already paired on the computer to the tablet's Bluetooth Mac Address. That's far as I can get with it. I am wondering how you got as far as you did with yours? Can you please explain ?

Appreciate any advice thank you very much.

Hey folks. Is the sixaxis app still working for you on lollipop? Somehow my phone doesn't recognize the Bluetooth address of the gamepad anymore which is why I can't pair my phone and my gamepad.

hey im having a problem with my sixaxis controller app... i paired it with a pc and whenever i hit start button and when it the '' listening to drivers'' come i press the home button on my dualshock3 and it connects perfectly but sometimes in a game the controller suddenly disconnects, then i go the app finding that it stopped by itself then i hit on start again and go into the game again, it disconnects then i quite the game and go into settings>apps>running and found that sixaxis controller app is RESTARTING that means its not from the controller but the app... lets take ASPHALT 8 for an example... i hit start and go into the game ( still working fine ) but when i hit play and go into a match it will load then will count to 3 then start, now at the count of 1 or b4 in a sec the controller will disconnects, if i keep trying to start and go into the game again and again and again it will start the match with the controller working but in the middle of the race it crashes... but when im playing dead trigger 2!! this game with the best graphics u can ever find in the market works perfectly and it doesnt disconnect so please dont tell me its from the lack of ram andi was using the app called usb/bt or something it detects bluetooth and usb i didnt know how to connect with bluetooth but i used to play with usb joystick that is meant for pc but it deceted it somehow... and i was playing fine with nova 3 but with another game called Blitz Brigade - Online FPS fun it disconnects and same goes with the app sixaxis controller... i dunno maybe its from the rom? phone(though its new)? app? controller ( though its new)? any tip would be really great thanks.

meaningless results

Sorry to say this, but the results of this poll mean practically nothing, since:

1. it's not known how many were ordered in each region

2. order time of each response was not taken into account

---> 1. If California had the highest number of orders, then the results will be biased towards the west coast

---> 2. If Californians had a tendency to be the first ones to pre-order, then again, the results will be biased towards the west coast.

---------- Post added at 08:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:51 PM ----------

I just looked at the poll again, and realized that my assertion of #1 is not entirely correct. To determine if certain geographic locations are more likely to get their orders first, then you'd have to calculate the sum of "received" and "have not received" for each region, then divide it by the number of "received." The way the poll is now, it's italicizing "west coast received" as if that's the most significant value (it's not).

By the way, I got mine yesterday. I live in San Francisco, and ordered a few hours after they were announced and made available on Google's Nexus site.
