You forget the wiimote app needs root.

Bad news Rooted and wii controller app errors with no route to host. this means PS3 Sixaxis is probably broken too.

Any news now that it has been a few days?

I've used the Sixaxis without any problems... I had to use the PC utility though

Sixaxis was confirmed working.
Probably needs updating.

sixaxis is working here no issue.
just played some super mario world using it

I created a thread about this a few days ago. I emailed a few wii app devs to see if they can update their apps for 4.3 no replies yet.

I'll try in a couple minutes and report on cm7's compatability
from what i know, ps3 controllers have their own bluetooth frequency specifically meant to just hook up to the ps3.

No...because you can connect the controller to pc over bluetooth. But I couldn't get it to work on CM7
This has been asked before and the answer (that I remember) was that the problem was with our Epic's bluetooth stack.

But since the bluetooth stack is different on cm7 or miui, its a valid question
ps3 controllers should work with CM7 if the BT stack is done correctly (they work on the CM7 kang for Galaxy Tab 7")
there's an app in the market.. sixaxis checker, it'll tell you if BT is compatible or not.
My controller doesn't work . Could be bcuz its not a real sony though

just to clarify, i need cm7 or miui to get it to work, right? both of these have to many issues for me to flash them right now even though miui felt beast when i flashed it for a few mins.

[Q] Wiimote/SIXAXIS Controller on t989

Has anyone had any success with getting a Wiimote or SIXAXIS controller on their t989? I've attempted to get a Wiimote to work to no avail. I haven't been able to test a SIXAXIS since I don't have one. I'm using the Gingersnap rom on my device.
Any thoughts, suggestions or solutions are welcome!
The Wiimote does not work, however I have seen that the Sixaxis controller will work very well

I've got a sixaxis controller working. You need the sixaxis app from the market. I got it to work with whitehawxx stock rooted rom and macnut's revenge. Just follow the steps on the sixaxis' dev's website and it'll work fine.
here is my video on youtube using the ps3 controller with my old white galaxy s2. http://youtu.be/23lXN3hK1nA
u need this app. this will run a test to make sure it will work for your phone, before u buy it. https://market.android.com/details?...kaW9zLnNpeGF4aXNjb21wYXRpYmlsaXR5Y2hlY2tlciJd
then if it says it works then just buy the app for 1.99 in the market. then u need to be rooted in order to even use this app.
hope this helps a little bit for you.
the market is telling me that the SIXAXIS app isnt compatible with my device.
im running darkside Dewizzed 2.5.2

The Wiimote works when using CM7
Well thanks for all your replies. I was able to get the SIXAXIS controller working. For those wondering how to get it connected, first you have to pair the device with a computer by using a tool like sixpair for linux which basically spoofs your Android device's Bluetooth MAC address on your computer's Bluetooth adapter. Once successfully paired with your computer with the spoofed MAC, the controller will easily pair with your phone.

onlive gaming on nexus 7 with ps3 controller?

hello,
I know there is a patch to make any controller playable on onlive but that is for desktop onlive correct? is there a way make it so we can use a ps3 controller on onlive on our nexus 7?? Or do i have to buy there controller to use with my nexus 7? i need something until the nyko android gamepad comes out!
any info would be greatly appreciated....

As a wired controller it worked out of the box with no additional apps.
My setup being OTG adapter and a standard mini usb lead to the controller
Only tested with deus ex and saints row on onlive.
To use as a wireless controller requires the sixaxis app or similar, I've had no luck with this so far although the app makes has the option to show the wireless controller as a sixaxis so it should work.. I might test that one again..
I'm when I did try i could only navigate menus. it was like the onlive didn't accept there was a controller and came up with that message (a controller is required to play this game)
Just tested and what I've said is correct.
Install this onlive app and u can use any controller with it. Onlive will recognize them as an official controller and u can play any game. Including six axis over Bluetooth. http://db.tt/nn0hUg8e

I haven't tried this wired yet (no OTG cable), but but I can't seem to get the patched Online app to work with the PS3 controller and Sixaxis app. Anyone else have any luck with this yet?

Yes, using the patched app and Sixaxis you just need to tick the 'Enable Gamepad" option to enable native gamepads.
Not really a tutorial, but proof that it works: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwSW1N7rtBw
That works!

Awesome, thanks! Now I just need to have a decent internet connection I guess.
Yes it works well, this is one of the first things I did with my tablet when I got it. Now I just need to figure out how the patch was done, cause unfortunately it uses the on live version before the last which had some performance improvements. Got it decompiled now I gotta dig around in smali. I'll definitely post anything if I can isolate the patch and apply to newest version.

Excuse my ignorance, but how do I install this? I have tried multiple times and it tells me that the install fails because there is a pre existing program with conflicting signatures.
Thanks in advance!!
how do you map?
So it works but the buttons are mapped in a fashion that makes is unusable - where do you properly map the buttons on the ps3 controller (don't see how within onlive)

lol all you had to do was google ps3 controller for android
It's now possible to get the most authentic gaming experience possible by linking a Sony PlayStation 3 controller with your Android device. The app that enables this astonishing combination is Sixaxis Controller, available for download from the Android Market for £1.01.
Before you purchase the app and dust off your PS3 pad in preparation for some old-school gaming action, take note: your phone has to be rooted in order for this to work. If you have no idea what rooting is, we'd advise you stop reading now.
It's also worth stressing that Sixaxis Controller doesn't work with every single Android phone -- the developer has noted that some HTC and Samsung devices are incompatible, due to complexities in how they handle Bluetooth protocols.
Run a compatibility check
The developer has kindly made a compatibility check tool available for free so you can be sure your device is up to the job before spending your cash on the full app. Download Sixaxis Compatibility Checker and run the test to ascertain if you're eligible for some controller-pairing goodness.
Lol and all you had to do was read the OP properly. Sixaxis Compatibility App by Dancing Pixel needs a PC.
You know, like the one he says he doesn't wanna use?

True dat. Sixaxis works great.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
You can do it without windows or any other computer in fact with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43993660
That is, if your device has USB-OTG
Otherwise you will still need SixAxisPairTool, or a modern or patched BlueZ on Linux, etc (links on their site)
