[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whatsinaname:
I don't have any other advice for you, but I have to say I have a sixaxis controller and the program "sixaxis controller" from the play store. It works so well I haven't considered anything else. As for cost, check out local pawn shops for the controller :) might get one cheap. Playing dead trigger with the ps3 controller is much better than using the touch screen.

Sorry I didn't have any additional information. Also yes, root is required for sixaxis.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spthacker:
Agree, I bit the bullet and bought a ps3 dualshock3 sixaxis and the sixaxis app, well worth it.... Just becareful with the cheaper ones available on ebay as there are alot of fakes that don't work with sixaxis....

there's a good thread on here with some games already having profiles for them as well if you haven't already seen it:

I must figure out how to get MAME setup, I think that would be lots of fun with a PS3 controller and a Nexus 7 which is what I will buy. Thanks
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnyg1097:
One controller that I heard is good (although I havent tried first hand) is the icontrolpad ( http://www.icontrolpad.com ). Apparently they are bluetooth controllers so they will be able to work with the N7 or any device that has bluetooth capabilities. It is a pretty steep price to bite the bullet on though.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazdaz:
Thanks for the link. I noticed that the iControlPad says that it's compatible with many emulators.

Is the PS3 controler with sixaxis compatible with MAME and other emulators ?

Maybe it's me, but the iControlPad gamepad does'nt have an asthetically pleasing design :)

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j3di:
+1 for the PS3 controller, it just works so well with the six axis software. I'm not 100% sure but I think the reason for root access is that part of the pairing process is to connect the controller to the N7 via a USB cable in order to set the Bluetooth address as required. You can also do this via a pc if you don't have an otg cable.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr_tris:
An XBox360 controller connected wired with an OTG cable works perfectly without apps. But I have to agree that sixaxis with a ps3 pad is perfect.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j3di:
If your ps3 controller battery is flat it also works via a cable connection!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr_tris:
Yes, but your N7 still needs to be rooted and that you are running the sixaxis Bluetooth app (your device is actively charging the controller) in the background. The 360 controller is plug and play compatible. :)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WarningHPB:
I'm pretty sure you don't have to be rooted to use the ps3 controller see this

Look at this, it's like a PS3 sixaxsis controller but a more compatible Bluetooth version.

It uses Bluez IME to work.

Remember you can root, but NOT install a custom recovery, meaning you can have the best of both worlds as this way you will still be able to get the OTA updates :victory:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joey jojo:
Hi Guys, only a quick question really!

Is it possible to use internal storage as ram to boost the memory up a little?

reason i ask is that (for example) windows 7 lets you stick a usb stick in and boost the ram up.

I would have thought that the same could be achieved by some of the developers on here by borrowing some internal storage for use with ram.

( I searched and couldn't find anything that related to this. )

Paul. :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Baldilocks:
And why would you want to? It would be on the order of magnitudes slower than RAM.

RAM operates in nanoseconds whereas storage operates in milliseconds. (Storage is 1000 times slower..)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graffixnyc:
Look in the dev section. There is a mod where you can use part of your external sd card as a swap partition.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joey jojo:
I just had a crazy idea that id be able somehow to borrow 1gb from my 32gb card and run 2gb of ram. but if what you explained is correct ill leave it as it is as its not that big an issue, however....... i have Siyah kernel installed already, might have to read up on 'swap partition' hopefully giving me more internal storage for downloading large sized games etc. I keep running out of internal storage memory when downloading games and for some reason on the latest 4.0.4 sammy build i cannot move apps to sd card.

ill have a tinker with swap partition and see how that goes, thanks for your info guys. :cool:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geordie Lad:
A swap partition won't help you download bigger files and all you have to do is download directly to external memory, and it's impossible to move Apps to external memory unless you Root and use App called Directory Bind.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shanky887614:
not the only app

there are other apps e.g. app2sd

dark tremors mod allows you to format part of the memory stick as either ext3 and use that to install apps on

this is done automatically on swedish snow which is a rom on zte blade,

i don't know if there is an app to do this on gs3 but it is possible to do it
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geordie Lad:
Nope it's impossible to use any Apps like App2Sd because the external memory now uses ExFat format and mounted as a separate device so can't move the cache like other phones, so only way is to use Directory Bind to use Android's folder Binding function to trick Apps into thinking it's reading from internal memory.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Take a look at another feature Siyah includes; zRAM. It basically reduces(!) your available memory by taking a chunk of it (up to 300MB can be set through STweaks) which is then used with GZip-Compression to create a in-RAM Swap partition.

This is based on the idea that in current phones/computers the CPU is far more powerful than is usually needed, so the performance impact of using it for Swap is not that high. On the other hand you don't save that much RAM - but it certainly helps without crippling down your phone and/or greatly reducing your SSD's capacity
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxi200:
I use 'GL to SD' from the play store. Worked great on the S2 as well.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m1ket:
Windows uses it more to reduce hard drive access as this is slower than a memory stick
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlimJ87D:
What? No! Unless you have a USB 3.0 or a SATA supported flash memory of some kind, most other means are slower than HDDs which get around 100 mb/s read and write. Compare that to a Class 10 at 10mb/s...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tectas:
A solution I use is something somehow similar to app2sd.

To achieve it just crop the first partition of your external sd fitting to the size you want to use as second partition and create an additional partition with a supported format (I personally prefer ext4).

Move the content of your /sdcard/Android folder to the new partition and write a mount script where you mount the /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 device to /sdcard/Android.

Execute it with script manager with su rights and mark on boot and you will gain more internal space for games and apps and only have to worry about moving files if you downloaded to much with the browser or such.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] connta:
the "mb/s" stat is irrelevant in the case of ReadyBoost, the windows feature that boosts access time of cached files through flash memory on usb stick or memory card...

cant post a link but, wikipedia is your friend

the feature is more of a gimmick than anything else, but its there and it does what it say it does to the extent of its limitations which are very low...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Most Windows computers have HDD's and not like our S3 an SSD.

HDD's are faster than memory sticks ONLY in writing and continuous read (one big file without fragmentation)

Readyboost uses a SSD for small often-read fragments qualifying as random read where even your cheap USB2 stick is by far faster than a hard drive.

Just wondering if there is any DATA-ONLY plan up in Canada that doesn't require contracts, probably pay-as-you-go kind of stuff, because it's only for 2 weeks. 2GB should be well more than enough, 1GB maybe also good enough.
