xbox Controller Compatible? - Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl

Bought an OTG cable, shows usb plugged on my notifications bar when I plug it in, but does nothing. Controller blinks, but won't respond, I don't want to root because I use the TWC app to watch TV on my tablet, and I like getting , you updates (last phone was the note 1 rooted and was on ICS for 2 years, so I like being current on my device for once without constant flashing and stuff.)
anyways cord and controller works fine on my Note 3 but no response from my Note 10.1 2014 Edition.
Any help?
Looked for a pre made thread on this, but whenever I hit the search thread tab on this site while using my tablet, the text bar dissappears.
HEEEEEEELP! Wanna play GTA comfortably on this pig.

Start with USB/BT Joystick app from store. It will at least let controller initialize. However I too am stuck past that, so tagging thread in hopes someone knows what's up.

Yea tried USB BT and didn't really understand what I was doing. It picked the controller up but still nothing. And apps like GTA are supposed to just work with a controller, so I'm lost. Worked fine on my Note 3 but not on my Note 10.1 2014?
No one else has tried this but us?

Is it a wireless controller ? Wireless controller only use the USB for charging, the rest is always done wirelessly.
If it's a wired controller, please disregard

No. Mine is the pure hardwired controller. That was lesson #1. Lesson #2 was to use the official Microsoft controller versus less expensive third party. Thank you Best Buy lenient return policy!

I used a gamestop brand madcatz type cheapo I bought in attempt to get the wife to play Halo with me (fail) registered on usb/bt app but doesn't do anything outside of that, and the same controller worked fine with no setup on my Note 3. So are you saying I need an official Microsoft wired controller?

For me non Xbox wouldn't work, but pure M$ does at least show up in USB BT. I can actually PLAY with it on my S3 phone (which is rooted if that matters?), but I have not been able to play with it on the Note tablet. Very frustrating.

I said screw it and bought a Moga.

Did the moga work easily? How much was it? I've about pulled my hair out getting the wired 360 to work. It works fine on my S3 phone is the weird part.

Yea effortlessly, just pair it like any Bluetooth device and you're off. Plus it's compact wireless and portable.
I purchased the pro (360 replica basically) for $40 on bestbuy.com and when I went to the store to pick it up, it was actually the Moga Hero Pro which was like $60, so whether by accident or on purpose I got the more expensive $60 one from bestbuy.
I originally got the Moga Pocket for $30 at gamestop, but took it back because bestbuy had the pro for $40 and the pocket didn't have shoulder buttons, just triggers and wasn't rechargeable, it took 2 AAA batteries.
If you want to game get a MOGA for sure. I should have just done it from get go.

Oh and obviously it connects just as easy to your phone, but it's also real nice to clip it in and play games, feels like a nice portable gaming device, plus the one I got, the hero pro charges your phone as you play if you want, pretty awesome, I originally just wanted to play on my tablet, but after plugging my phone into this beast I was hooked. Def worth the money.
But yea plays awesome on both devices.

Anyone tired the SteelSeriees controller?
I can get it uber cheap, but don't know how good it is (or isn't)

Sounds like moga may be ticket unless someone can figure out why x360 won't show up on the 10.1 2014. I'm sure I'll get BB gift cards for Christmas, so I'll grab one then. Thx for tip

Well I got the moga pro on closeout for $30 at BB. Still having trouble getting it connected. Can you give me step by step what you did? I'm still using the paid version of the USB BT app. Is that still needed with the moga?

I just got my Note 10.1 2014 for Christmas, and have bought a OTG cable in order to play games on a Controller. My PS3 controller works fine with the Note, but my 360 controller doesn't. The 4 ring lights flash, and that's it.
I tried the cable with my daughters nexus 7, and the 360 controller works fine with that.
Has anyone managed to get a 360 controller to work with the note? What could be stopping this from working?

Nope, download the moga app and its cake from there, no other app needed sir.

Hi guys,
if you are trying to use the wireless xbox 360 controller, try to install the latest Xluco Kernel (Beta v3) for Android 4.4.2.
You can find the Kernel on following page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2725193
It works like a charm and you don't need an extra App (USB/BT Joystick Center). Just plug in your xbox 360 dongle and
switch on your xbox 360 controller.
The only issue is, that your DPad won't work. On following page you can find a modified Vendor/Product driver to activate the DPad: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40032337&highlight=dpad#post40032337

Hi All,
Been looking at getting a gaming controller for my htc one, i want one that holds the phone as well as lets you use a controller, so i can go and
play gta etc.. with ease.
Anyone got any experience with any ??

Also ive seen the mogo pro controller : http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/10/moga-pro-hands-on/
Which looks perfect but no info about a UK release, just US.
There is this as well, I have it on order myself.

Thanks that one idea out.
I do love the moga one its looks perfect, just hoping that once it released on Monday in the US it will pop up online in places.
That bluetooth one of ebay says it has issues with android 4.0 (guessing this will mean it has issues with 4.1 as well)
Also im sure ive read somewhere that the flip at the top doesnt stretch far enough to fit a s3 in it, hence it might not fit the one!
why o why cant someone just bring out a good one and sell it world wide.
I'm hoping the Moga Pro turns out to be decent as I'll be in the US in a few Months so I'll pick one up then, unless a UK reseller pops up beforehand!

I have the Moga and it worked fine on my note 2. The sixaxis never worked with me and I have tried it on the s3 and note 2.. But the moga was good for me.
I think I am going to try the Moga pro! It looks awesome.
The sixaxis app does not work with the HTC ONE due to the required bluetooth protocol not being implemented.
OTG doesn't work either. You don't even get the local bluetooth adress in the sixaxis app! :crying:

I have the smaller moga controller AND the Nyko Playpad (smaller one)
the moga is nice but... it does not support any app but MOGA certified ones out of the box, meaning if its not a moga supported game it will not work, BUT! there is a "MOGA IME" around that u can install and it will allow you to use it with your non moga apps, but only with key mapping, there is no way to map touch controls. The moga runs on 2 AAA batteries
The nyko playpad is nice as well, it has the ability to be use as a controller or even a mouse for android, but their "playground" app doesn't support touch mapping yet and it doesnt have a built in mount to hold the phone, it does however come with a stand that can be used for phones OR tablets, it is rechargable
In all honesty, having tried the 2 main competitors I have both because some games wont work with one but will with the other, in the end tho, the sixaxis is probably the best bet, and even with that there is an annoying lag when playing games with any of these methods, I actually just gave up on using the controllers mostly, the only time i use them now is for my SNES and GBA emulator's

Careful
I own a moga, and it works flawlessly with my S3, but my one doesn't see the controller at all.
Seems the protocol isn't supported, once we get a rom that doesn't have sense, I'll test it out again.
Tried the droid DNA bluetooth mod as well, no luck

Does it not work over usb OTG at all? Or only before getting rid of sense? I bought one of these to use with my ps3 controller and every usb pairing, management app out there says it detects my controller, I have the HTC one but when I plug in the controller nothing happens. Do I have to get rid of sense? I don't knwo why that would interfere with it. I'm kind of pissed because other phones just plug n play and I have this amazing new top of the line phone that can't do it without deleting the main software? I don't even wanna mess around with that kind of stuff lol
I've got a regular moga... May see how it works for me. It was useless for me since my sensation is too slow to play good games now and my N7 just uses an Xbox controller with USB wire.
By far best controller for phones is the phonejoy iv had a lot now and this has lasted me over two years of hardcore emulator action it is supported by all ime apps and most emulators already it's a great option and is an exact ps3 replica but works with any phones bluetooth

Can somebody help answer what gamepad will actually work on this device. Im stuck and really want a gamepad!

Need advice for Bluetooth Gamepads (8-Bitty doesn't work well)

I just received my iCade 8-Bitty controller in the mail from ThinkGeek. I'm having a bit of trouble getting it to work in the few apps I've tried.
I have successfully paired the device with the tablet, but it doesn't seem to be receiving any inputs from the controller.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35167558
According to this thread, people have used the app BluezHID to get the 8-bitty to work as a keyboard, and successfully map controls in emulators, on the Original N7.
I've tried BluezHID on my 2013 N7 to no avail, i get an error: bt socket connect failed message no matter what I try.
Seems iCade support requires "L2CAP" to work with the Bluetooth stack. Any clue if this is supported on the 2013 N7?
Has anyone else tried the 8-bitty or other iCade sticks on the 2013 N7 yet?
I will keep trying a few other game apps and see if anything works. I'll update this thread as I figure stuff out.
Edit:
Initial tests indicate that the pad connects, is seen, but in MAME4Droid, every button is read as "unknown", making mapping impossible. Will keep trying.
Edit2:
Seems BluezHID will NEVER work as they changed the way Bluetooth connects in 4.2.2 (N7 is at 4.3), it never releases the bluetooth connection. A custom ROM may fix this. *SIGH*
Edit 3:
Seems with 4.3 Bluetooth gamepads are near broken, I need some general advice about using Bluetooth Controllers with the 2013 Nexus 7.
Bump for title change. I need some more general advice with Bluetooth Controllers.
The best bluetooth controller I've found is the the official PS3 controller. If you have a PS3 system then you're all set. If not, you can usually get one for less than $30 brand new. There are tons of knockoffs that can cost about half or less, but it's a hit or miss with those. If you don't care about being wireless, then just get a wired controller, xbox360 controller for example, which is cheaper and will also work.
Hmm, I do have a wired 360 Controller, I would assume a USB to micro-USB adapter is required. Is there any app needed? Does it require root? Is the 2013 Nexus 7 USB-OTG capable?
Tried my XBOX360 Wired controller and a USB to Micro USB adapter that I had lying around, and did not work. Didn't even light up. Granted, I'm not sure if this adapter ever worked, but I have no clue if the 2013 N7 even has the OTG capability.
Any other ideas?
I have the steelseries free that I bought used from eBay at 35.

Well, bought a powered USB Hub and it still didn't work with my OTG adapter, so its obviously at fault. I have another OTG Cable on the way, one recommended by an XDA forum thread, but it won't get here for a month. Blech.
I need to peruse the forums some more and see if there is a good list of Bluetooth controllers somewhere.
I have been using Moga Pro
and I have no complaints, came with a little tablet stand too. I have been using it flawlessly on emulators like Drastic DS and supergnes and MyBoy. Also, it works with the Moga software which is growing it's library of supported games all the time. I love it and honestly it feels better than the PS3 controller in my humble opinion. They just recently released a new line of Moga controllers where they charge youre device while playing, sounds cool but I always carry extra battery packs with me so it's not necessary for me.

Finally got ahold of my FC30, and I'm sad to report it doesn't work as advertised. Works fine as a USB PC controller, but I have troubles getting it to connect to my N7 (2013) reliably. The touchscreen emulation hasn't worked yet, as it will never successfully connect in the touchscreen emu mode with the included .apk. However, this gamepad has the ability to update the firmware, so its possible to fix these issues.
My conclusion: DON'T BUY. At least until they fix connectivity.

Just got my Moga pro and I have to say it does great for Games that support it directly and with the Universal Driver on the Play store it works great with the emulators I use. Pleasantly surprised that I don't have to be rooted for the Universal Driver to work either. I had been using the Sixaxis app with a PS3 controller up till now but I wanted to see if I really needed to root my new N7 so I grabbed the Moga to try.

Another vote for the Sony PS3 Sixasis controller!! I use a PS3 controller with my Asus Infinity, Note 2, Evo LTE, and of course N7 FHD. Best part is that it works flawlessly with EVERY game too!! Even if the game isn't set to support a controller, you can use the Sixasis app and customize the controller button presses to emulate a screen touch. Absolutely LOVE that feature and ability!! I set some custom game button mappings for some games that already natively support controllers, just because I prefer the button presses to do something different. You can make and save different controller button mappings (just called "maps" in the Sixasis app) for each individual game, or even make multiple maps for each game if you'd like. The app is very flexible and allows you to fully customize everything to your liking! I don't believe there's another controller option out there that offers as much flexibility and in depth customizations as does a Sixasis controller with the Sixasis app!! I'm excited to get the PS4 system and to use PS4 Sixasis controllers with my Android devices!!
Needless to say, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND going with a PS3 controller and the Sixasis app!!!!

I have been using the wired 360 controller for awhile now, for both my PC and Nexus7 (both gens). Works well, though it is a little awkward finding a good spot for the tablet since your hands are both on the controller (unless you have a stand or are sitting at a table).
If you want a wired one then I would high recommend it.

Game Controller?

OK so looking to get real for some gaming. Some games just require a true controller to play it. With that said what is the controller to get out there?
Something easy, plug and play would be great. Wireless preferred but not needed. Ability to pick it up locally would be wonderful, as going on a trip soon.

MOGA is the most widely supported.
PS3 is my choice just because I like the 4 way pad for certain games. It requires root for the drivers to use wirelessly but is plug and play via cable.
The OUYA controller is also good. All can be purchased from GameStop.

Just got the Red Samurai from GameStop the other day as well I do have a PS3 controller as well.
Though really my question is which is better? Sort of torn on what to do. Never really understood how to effectively setup profiles on the PS3 controller which never seemed to work for half the games I tried it with. So maybe a my bad on that one. The Red Samurai seemed to work nice and quickly probably guess I need to test both of them out to see what is better.
Just curious to what people are using for gaming or the preferred controller since no matter what it seems like there is some tweaking involved with every one out there.
Oh and did try to see about the Moga Pro when I was in Best Buy the other day, didn't have one at all.
Whatever works. You can use key mappers to make more games work. No different for a PS3 gamepad. The MOGA just has "official" support for some games, which is a nice touch. The ingame menu's and stuff detect the Moga and change accordingly.
There might even be wrappers that allow you to make the tablet think it's connected to a Moga.
I know we do this on the Ouya where some games won't detect the Ouya controller, but we can plug in a USB device (keyboard/mouse/etc) and then it will detect the Ouya controller as a plain jane and start working. I know it's harder on a tab vs a dedicated gaming unit with a full USB port.
I would recommend nyko playpad pro just got them a week ago the controller itself supports many game from the play store without doing any modification all you need to do is pair it up with nexus 7. so far I've tried a neo geo emulator call tiger meme and the controller works flawlessly. the price is very reasonable compare to the steel free series, moga build quality seems decent. I got them for £26 in uk.

I use PS3 controllers with all of my Android devices. PS3 is my preferred controller layout anyway, so it works perfectly for me. To use it wireless, you'll need root and the Sixasis app from the Play Store. If you haven't rooted, you need to have it plugged in to an OTG cable. You can easily find one locally at Best Buy, BrandsMart, HH Greg, Walmart, and the list goes on, pretty much anywhere that sells electronics will have one. It will work with any game that has controller support. If the game doesn't natively support a controller, you can still use it by just making a custom game map for it. It's super easy and works flawlessly!

Original what? I'm assuming you mean the original controller that came with my PS3 console. If that's what you meant, then yes, one that I use came with my console while another one I use was purchased separately when the PS3 was first released. Both are authentic Sony. That's the most important thing to beware of when buying from eBay, especially from overseas sellers. I've seen a LOT of legit looking knock offs on there! Some don't even say that they aren't authentic Sony, but if it's coming from China, new in the box, and only $25, then you can bet it's a fake.
Don't know if the controller you linked will work or not. The description says that it isn't made by Sony, so it's really a 50/50 chance. Some have got knock off controllers to work, while others have had problems. The Sixaxis app states that third party controllers aren't supported, so they aren't guaranteed to work. Even if it does work initially, who knows how long it will last before breaking or dying. I personally wouldn't risk it. Just buy the real thing and be done with it. You know with an authentic Sony controller then it will last for many MANY years of normal usage. Actually, I've NEVER had an authentic Sony controller go bad! That's through the original PlayStation, PS2, and now PS3.

USB devices not being recognized by tablet

Hello everyone, I just recently got this the 2014 note 10.1 tablet as my first Android device/tablet after much research. I've been liking the device so far and everything it can do compared to my iPhone, but I'm having difficulties getting USB devices to work.
I purchased an OTG adapter from Amazon, and when I connect it to the tablet I get a message on my tablet that reads "USB Connector detected," however, any USB device that I've tried to plug in so far won't be detected by the tablet. I first tried my 32GB flash drive and the moment I connect it the flash drive's indicator light would light up for an instant and then disappear. The next thing I tried was a USB mouse and nothing happened. Then I tried a large external HDD I have (USB powered) and when I plugged it in to the OTG adapter it would actually power the device on, but the tablet wouldn't recognize it. Lastly I tried a USB xbox 360 controller (which is actually the most important thing I want to get working on the tablet, so that I can play emulators) and just like the flash drive, the indicator light on the controller lights up for a split-second and then disappears the moment I plug it in.
Do you know if this is just some kind of a software problem with these new tablets? Are you all able to get your USB devices to work fine out of the box on your 2014 10.1? Or perhaps do you think I have some kind of defected hardware (e.g. the OTG cable or even the tablet itself).
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I used an OTG with a 32GB flash drive with mine the other day and watched some videos without issue but the drive is formatted fat32.
Try restarting the tablet & see if it works then.

I've of course tried restarting the tablet many times, plugging the OTG cable and the USB device in first before restarting, etc. but to no avail.
I'm not sure how the flash drive I tried to use is formatted, but I also tried a USB mouse and a Xbox 360 controller. Those devices should just work out of the box am I right?
Wow I used to restart my old 10.1 & it would work. The new 10.1 seems to be plagued with problems.

Just as an update, it was actually the OTG cable that I ordered from Amazon that was defective. Got a new one now and it seems to be working just fine.

Not sure what you mean by plagued with problems. Out of the box it was bit laggy but after the updates it is a very good tablet. I have been lucky as I do not have any build quality issues but all tablets seem to have those at first.

Do you mean the one that didn't work or the new one that did?

Ok here you go
I have been pulling my hair out with this. The OTG works fine with my S3, but I cannot get it to work correctly with the Note 10.1. Do you have last year's model or the new 2014? My S3 is rooted but my tablet is not. Does that matter? FYI I'm wanting to use a wired X360 (Microsoft version, not third party) controller to play games on the epsxe Playstation emulator. I also have the pay version of USB/BT Joystick Pro from the app store. It correctly identifies the controller model and it can be enabled as an input device. Then it does NOT show up as selectable inside the game itself. I thought it might be the emulator software, but again the same setup works fine on the phone. I'm stuck.

Did you get it to work? I have the exact same problem.

bleutooth xbox one s controler: does it work

What are good bluetoothcontrolers that work?
Xbox One Wireless Controller works over bluetooth
I can second that, my Xbox One S controller works perfectly via Bluetooth.
Yes. It works flawlessly. I also used mine to test some psp games through ppsspp emulator with vulkan api. And its really awesome. Now we just need a good phone holding clip that we can attach to the Xbox one s Controller to put our phone in since our phone sadly doesnt support any slimport hdmi output

Mine dosent work
I tried to connect with my Axon 7 but it dosent show up iduring refreshing
I tried it on lg v20 too..but same, no device.
@teji007: Works for me on AOSP Extended Nougat, I don't use ZTE's stock ROMs. Make sure you have your XBox One S controller in pairing mode (the light will blink rapidly). If it still doesn't work then you might need to try a Magisk module, there is one for this controller, just search for it in the Downloads section of Magisk app. I haven't been able to get the controller working in most games, but it does seem to work fine in Minecraft, Survivalcraft, and Survivalcraft 2.

Thanks for replying but now i have updated my phone A2017U to Oreo and i dont know how to unlock bootloader and root.
If you know please do tell me .
Thanks
@teji007: I no longer own the Axon 7 as of a month ago, so I can be of no help. I have moved on to the Galaxy Note 9 N9600 international Hong Kong model. But there are plenty of guides on the A7 XDA subforum, just start reading a few topics in different categories, you'll get it figured out.
A "wireless" controller doesn't necessarily mean bluetooth.
My daughter's XBOX one controller didn't work. My Axon 7 couldn't "see" it.
I just got the new XBOX one controller which specifies bluetooth on the box. The Axon 7 sees it and it works properly on stock Oreo.
Google about it and see there is an obvious cosmetic difference between the controllers so you can tell which are the right ones.
Ebay has clip on phone holders too. I'm going to order one.
If we had official Android 10 I would try a Nintendo Switch controller as 10 got native support for that. They're $20 cheaper.
