Question

When doing this, if I have a MacBook as my pc but a shield tab, when going to dl the sixaxis pair tool from the dev website do I dl the one for Mac OS X or the one for Windows? Also if you go to the page there's two links for the Windows now which of those two did you use?
[Shield Tablet General] steve.loveday:
Hi great guide

I don't suppose you know if this would work with the Xbox one controller or maybe the Xbox 360 controller ?
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
Hi ! :D

If you use a MacBook that means you need to download the Mac OS X version they provide, I don't have a Mac so I have no idea how that works. I did a quick google and found this orikad.com/sixpair_instructions.html I suggest you follow that and it should work.

Let me know when you have it working ! :D
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
I'm afraid this won't work for the xbox controllers since they don't use bluetooth, however you can get a 360 controller working if you connect a usb adapter for windows with a usb otg cable.

There is at the moment no way to use a Xbox One controller with any device other can Windows 7,8(.1) and 10 since the wireless adapter only supports these versions of windows.
[Shield Tablet General] x-nivek:
Great guide Dusty!! I am expecting my nvidia k1 next week and i try to collect info about anything!

One question i have...if you have root, the way to pair the tablet and the ds4 is easier??
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
If you root the tablet you can use this app play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller and connect the DS4 to your tablet with a usb otg cable so you can pair it on your tablet, this is done with 1 press so you don't have to look up the MAC adress etc. However, the app is having problems with newer versions of android 5.1.1+ so I decided to skip the rooting for now and go with this method :)
[Shield Tablet General] sshep1986:
Awesome. Thank you.
[Shield Tablet General] DOliger:
Thank you so much! Love you for this
[Shield Tablet General] x-nivek:
Thanks a lot!! So you suggest not to update to 6.0???
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
No no I love 6.0 ! I suggest to update it's just that sixaxis app that isn't compatible but tbh I don't miss it at all [emoji14]
[Shield Tablet General] steve.loveday:
Thanks for that

When you say I USB adapter are you on about the wireless adapter ?

I do have a old wired Xbox 360 controller would that just work through the otg cable

Cheers
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
Yup ! A wired 360 controllers should work without any hassle with a otg cable :D
[Shield Tablet General] MrCoolsville:
To add some information to the thread, I was able to make this work using these steps on an original Shield tablet running Lollipop. Thanks for the tip!
[Shield Tablet General] Kiiv:
Hi !

Does someone know if this could works with dualshock 3 too ?
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
I tried to get the DS3 working without root but I haven't found a way yet :( So no it doesn't work... sadly
[Shield Tablet General] x-nivek:
Btw it stucks in pairing to , also in stock 5.1.1 on k1!!
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
So it's stuck at pairing after you followed my guide ?

If so verify that the master MAC address is the same as your bluetooths MAC.
[Shield Tablet General] x-nivek:
Ooops i mean without your guide :p

I dont know if i should upgrade to MM or not.. Multirom is the only thing that holds me :)
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
Ah alrighty [emoji14]
[Shield Tablet General] x-nivek:
Ehhmmm...dusty r you here??? I rooted my 6.0 but i cant connect my ps4 controller..can you guide me?
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
Hmmm how are you trying to pair the controller ? Are you using my guide or the sixaxis app on your tablet ?

If you use the sixaxis app it probably doesn't work with 6.0.
[Shield Tablet General] x-nivek:
Oh..i did it with the sixaxis app.. I will do your guide...but you told me is easier if you have root,didnt you?

Edit: ooooooh now i saw it in the first post that the app doesnt work! Ok i will follow your guide thanks :)

Edit2: there isnt a way without pc uh?
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
As far as I know there is no way to pair the DS4 on our tablet at the moment.
[Shield Tablet General] Miraas:
And what the xbox 360 controller work wit shield?? Any aps ? Thx
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
A xbox 360 will work without any apps, you have 2 options to use a xbox 360 controller.

Option A:

Connect a wired x360 controller to your tablet with a usb otg cable.

Option B:

Connect a x360 wireless adapter to your tablet with a usb org cable and connect your controller with the wireless adapter.

I hope this helps !
[Shield Tablet General] Miraas:
Thanks for a quick help :good:
[Shield Tablet General] TokedUp:
thank you [MENTION=6267280]_Dusty_[/MENTION] for this tut. Works great. Have u had any luck connecting any of the PS wireless bluetooth headsets? I have the newer gold series one and the older black one. I tried using a USb OTG adapter to plug in the dongle but when it connects I only get sound out of one of the headphones, almost like its stuck in mono instead of stereo. If u know how to get it to work with full stereo sound please lmk I would totally donate to u
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
Glad it helped you with the controller :D

But sadly I don't have any PS bluetooth headset so I can't test this for you :( Sawrry

I hope you find a way to use the headset in stereo ! :)
[Shield Tablet General] x-nivek:
Im still hoping for a way with the pc...

Cant we do change the "master" from otg on the shield??there isnt a way?
[Shield Tablet General] daltvee102:
hi.. i am having an issue.. your tutorial works and all but still after a while of playing it starts lagging out and not working properly idk why its doing this i am sure im doing it right :(
[Shield Tablet General] Coronado is dead:
How is lag using a DS4 over Bluetooth compared to the official controller? I have a Shield Tablet coming in next week and was planning on using my DS4, but if there is noticeable lag an official controller may be a good investment for me. I plan on playing a lot of emulators.
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
Hmm strange I have no issue's at al :/

Maybe try to change the value at this line

Device Timeout(Sec) = 5

to 3 or 4 maybe that will fix it ?
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
So far I haven't noticed any lag, I don't have the official controller to compare, I gues the official controller is fater with responding since it uses wifi direct if i'm not mistaking.

But I think you will only notice lagg when you have have tried them both. Anyhow with the DS4 I find everything perfectly playable from old school platformers to hack n slack rpg's :D All gucci
[Shield Tablet General] djibril13:
Is this method works with the k1 edition or is the same with the original?
[Shield Tablet General] nachogrois:
Hey, if I go back to use the PS4, and then back to the tablet, do I have to set up everything again? Like, all the steps?
[Shield Tablet General] robgee789:
will this work with a ps3 controller?
[Shield Tablet General] x-nivek:
Unfortunatelly yes, [MENTION=7250086]nachogrois[/MENTION]
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
It should work with most android devices, so yea it works on both the k1 model and the original :)
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
Yes, connecting the DS4 with the ps4 will reset the master MAC address to the MAC of the ps4.

Edit: x-nivek was faster :P
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
It only works with the DS4.
[Shield Tablet General] djibril13:
i bought a DS4 yesterday and it works very well (thanks for the tutorial) sometime lags a bit but overall very good perfomance. Tommorrow i will try if it still works after the 1.1 OTA update.
[Shield Tablet General] hakami55:
Very good tutorial

I tried to use it with nvidia shield tv

But controller connect and then turn off immediately

Is there any work through?

Thanks
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
Fine that it worked :D I see no reason why it should stop working with the ota 1.1 update :D But please report back if anything changes !
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
Hmm strange, I'm afraid I can't test it myself since I only have the shield tablet =(

I hope you can find a way to fix it !
[Shield Tablet General] x-nivek:
[MENTION=6267280]_Dusty_[/MENTION] i found a way without a pc... with multi rom ubuntu you can connect it with just search and pair...and after you change again to android it remembers it ;)
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
Haha nice ! Thats pretty smart man goodjob :D
[Shield Tablet General] john2111:
I think if you hold down the share and ps botton at the same time until the light starts flashing you can pair the controller to your device in bluetooth settings..
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
It will get stuck when pairing in the bluetooth settings, maybe that will change with Android N :)

[Shield Tablet General] cgbanez12:
Hi all. Need expert opinion... Do you feel the need to buy the official nvidia controller or are you all good with the ps4 controller? I'm just about to buy one right now through amazon and i need to decide. Your inputs/feedback are much appreciated
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
If I didn't had a DS4 controller I would go with the nvidia controller at this point since it has recieved Windows support now and it works 'better' with the tablet. However the DS4 controller is useable on most devices that have bluetooth. So if your next tablet would be a asus/samsung w.e it will work. The Nvidia controller won't work on other tablet brands.
[Shield Tablet General] cgbanez12:
Thanks, Dusty. Just one more thing, are you having issues with playing games on the DS4? Or are all games virtually compatible with the DS4?
[Shield Tablet General] _Dusty_:
So far I haven't had a issue with playing with the DS4, android will see it as a standard gamepad so if a game has gamepad support it's all good.
[Shield Tablet General] cgbanez12:
Thanks, man. You're a life saver...

On a side note, unless another brand releases a tablet with a better gpu, i'm sticking with nvidia. Going for the DS4 tho... Thanks a bunch
[Shield Tablet General] Ralek85:
Can someone point out to me where that "connect now" option is to be found? All I see is the "connect" button at the very top, which apparently doesn't do me any good as the DS4 will only connect once the PS button is pressed and once that happens it instantly connects 'normally' to my tablet - lag included. Any help would be appreciated! :D
[Shield Tablet General] cgbanez12:
[MENTION=6267280]_Dusty_[/MENTION]

I went ahead and got the DS4 and followed your guide. I got the controller working,all good and dandy, however, as Ralek85 says, there's a pretty obvious lag/latency after about a few minutes. I've tested it in multiple games and it's still has lag. I yried freeing up RAM and ROM but it's still bad. I'd really want to hook this up to my TV for better gaming experience. Any ideas?

[MENTION=7299226]Ralek85[/MENTION] - it seems the app has updated its interface and the 'Connect' button works. In my case, i experience the lag after about 2-3 minutes into the game.
[Shield Tablet General] Ralek85:
Bummer, I had hoped that I was just too dense to figure out where that connect now button was hidden :( Trouble is, as soon as I boot up the DS4 it start connecting to my Tablet, and for the connect button to be able to do anything, the controller has to be "online" so to speak.

Could you possibly offer a detailed step-by-step explanation of how you got BT Autoconnect to do anything? I mean what good is presssing the connect button when the controller is already connected? I guess nothing, but if it is not connected it is powered-off/ "offline" ... which of course is no good either.

Is there any partcular trick, order of things or setting I have to observe?

I know this should probably be easy, and maybe I'm missing something simple and obivous, but for the life of me, my controller is either offline or automatically connecting to the system when powerd-on ... Right now, that connect button seems pointless to me as far as the DS4 is concerend. It's different for my BT speakers for example, as I can disconnect from those without them powering them off, thus I can turn them on, disconnect them, and then use the BT Autoconnect to reestablish a connection, but how does that work for the DS4 that does not simply stay "on" while searching for a new BT connection once the connection has been lost/terminated? I'm at a loss Oo
[Shield Tablet General] medium0rare:
Has this been tried in any capacity on the Shield TV?
[Shield Tablet General] MiJeVa:
Im having trouble with the connecting the controller correctly. Whenever I start the controller, it will connect without the app ("normal connect") and I cant stop this without turning of the controller. How did you manage to connect with the app?

[Shield Tablet General] threehappypenguins:
That's what I was wondering. I'm planning on rooting when my Shield is no longer under the manufacturer's warranty. But I don't want to root right now because it voids the warranty.

I looked at the Bluetooth app suggested, and it says that it's not compatible with the Shield TV. I tried adding a bluetooth app that was in the Play Store in the Shield, and it has very little settings. I can't seem to connect my PS3 controller. :(
[Shield Tablet General] l337g0g0:
Thank you soo much.

I have a rooted device and used that app to connect but i have one that isn't rooted and was frustrated.

Thank you for helping us out... :D
[Shield Tablet General] pdq12:
This will work with GeforceNow and all that right? Like, a completely functional Nvidia controller replacement?
[Shield Tablet General] seh6183:
This no longer works FYI. Android takes over the connection and the controller just connects as if you went though the bluetooth settings, then 30 seconds later the lag comes. The only way I can get the controller connected without lag is with root and sixaxis tool. Also attempting this method breaks sixaxis tool and you have to reset the controller with a paper clip and start over.
[Shield Tablet General] waimser:
Think I have a procesdure to connect without the lag starting. So far working on my Nvidia shield k1 running 6.0.1 and Nexus 7 2012 running 4.4.2.

So. From the top.

Pair the DS4 to your device using 6axis pair tool as you do in post#1. Hopefully you only need to do this step once, or after youve use the controller for something else.

Connect controller to bluetooth. Make sure the light is staying on and the controller functions.

Best, most consistent connection procedure ive found.

With Bluetooth off, press the PS button on the controller first.

Then turn on bluetooth on the device.

It should automatically connect.

If the light is not staying on after you connect, then you should just need to go to bluetooth settings, forget the device, then pair it again using pair tool.

Once connected, start the app "Bluetooth auto connect". The one linked in post #1.

settings I am using

Set last device. Tick.

Bluetooth on. Tick

All other tick boxes off.

All options under control section, off.

Advanced Options.

Retry count 1

Retry after 1

Device timeout 2

Use setPriority. Tick

Continuous connect 2

All other tickboxes. off

Once the app is started.

Use the android swipe down options menu to turn bluetooth off.

Wait for the controller to turn off too.

Press PS button on controller.

Using the android swipe down menu, turn Bluetooth back on.

The controller should automatically connect.

You can now minimise the th Bluetooth auto connect app and play your games etc.

Hope this works for everyone.

Now if someone could figure out how to fix the control assignment problems with the DS4 without root access and ill be a happy camper. I can play fery simple 2d scroller trup games ans long as they only have a few controls needed, but any 3d game just wont work with the device thinking that the left trigger is one of the analogue sticks :|

EDIT.

FOUND AN APP TO FIX BUTTON LAYOUT

Its called External keyboard helper. There is a demo version.

play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.apedroid.hwkeyboardhelperdemo&hl=en

play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.apedroid.hwkeyboardhelper&hl=en

This vid shows how to set the keybinds. I didnt need it plugged in though, having BT connected was good enough.

addgenericyoutubeaddresshere/watch?v=VWkYbHCqo5s

Youll have to copy paste a the adresses and add the base youtube address is sorry. Forum restrictions on links.

I set it up using R1 type buttons as on playstation. Then set triangle, square, etc, as xbox is set up, so y, x, a, b. This setup has been spot on for all games so far.

It hasnt helped so far with the 3d game I want to be able to play unfortunately, there is still some conflict with the joysitck axis'. But it has worked for every single platformer and 2d game I have tried so far.

greetings

so i've upgraded to the latest mm 6.0.1 (MMB29K) installed latest twrp and rooted with latest supersu (v2.65)

(i've flashed the supersu.zip and discarded the su of twrp , it tells me everytime to install root but according to the thread he said don't install it)

also xposed and elemental kernal .

now when i run any app that requrie root ( apart from xposed ) it doesn't work even the su app and it tells me that i've to root.

what did i do wrong and how to fix it ?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dahawthorne:
There are some comments about exactly this in the SuperSU thread. Use the "full unroot" option, then try the 2.62 version here:

Apparently it uses a different installation method and avoids the errors.

Hi all, I seem to be going around in circles on this.

Basically I returned my M8 to stock and it was all working fine however was on an old version of android.

The phone said there was an update which I installed. Ever since the wireless will not turn on.

I have read some posts on here that if I could upgrade it to the next firmware level (2.26.61.1) the wireless would start working.

However you can only update over wifi or the pc link. I have tried to get the pc link to work. The best I got was the connection working and the download started but stayed at 0% so it clearly wasn't working.

I tried to browse the web also but that didn't work either.

I have done three factory reboots not and it will not enable.

Is there another way of tackling this?

I have only had my Nexus for a couple weeks now so more experienced users please feel free to jump in. Sometimes is best to just flash a fresh factory image and start over.

Prerequisites - Have ADB and Fastboot installed and configured

- extract the factory image that's linked

- Reboot into your bootloader and unlock it if you haven't already done so

- while in booltloader flash the factory image using fastboot by running the flash-all script

- tablet will reboot and you should be back to stock
