PS3 Controller Help - Google Pixel 3 Accessories

Hey I have an old PS3 controller lying around and trying to get to work with my pixel 3 for emulators.
I used the USB to USB c adapter that came with the phone and used a usb to micro cable I had to hook the 2 together. I figured after that I would get a prompt for something, but nothing happens.
If there a way to make these 2 work together?

i think you would need usb otg functionality which the pixel3 does not have. it worked for me on older android versions (phones whith otg) using sixaxis enabler (paid app).
I would get a ds4 controller instead, works over bt on my pixel

Xbox controller with Xoom 4.0?

I've seen videos of folks connecting an Xbox 360 controller via the Motorola otg cable on honeycomb. So I bought the Motorola otg cable from amazon to my wifi Xoom 4.0.4 connected my Xbox controller and nothing.
Has anyone got this to work?

Is it a wired controller? This should work, as it's a USB gamepad.
Wireless controller via dongle, or via play n charge kit, won't work.

I have the play and charge cable. What other cable can I use?

play and charge doesn't do anything AFAIK,
supposedly the windows wireless dongle will work (you might need an app on your xoom as well)
PS3 controller via charging cable (mini USB) and host cable works just fine.

Play n charge cable doesn't even work on Windows.
I haven't seen anyone get the drivers working for Xbox wireless dongle.
What works: PS3 via USB (as said above), PS3 bluetooth via Sixaxis app, Wiimote via an app (unsure which), or any cheap <$10 USB gamepad.
Wired Xbox360 controller works.

USB Hosting Capabilities

So far I've used my Note II to host a mouse, a flash drive, and an SDXC card reader. I'm curious to know what the limits to its capabilities are. USB game pads/controllers? Hubs? Maybe even USB Ethernet adapters for wired usage?
I can update this post with a list of devices and device types that work, as we find them.
The PS3 Dual Shock 3 sixaxis controller works like a charm with GTA3. Just plug it in via the normal USB cord routed through a USB host adapter and you're good to go after hitting the pair button on the controller. Use the X button to accelerate, the square for braking/reverse, triangle to get in the car and circle to fight. The action is as smooth as it is on the normal console version of the game with no lags at all.

Uber frustration with PS3 controller. Wired won't show.

I hae simply given up on wireless via mac. So, I got the gameklip and love the idea but when I plug in the controller, and nothing happens. It says it should show up immediately. It doesn't. Says usb connected and that's it. Input method doesn't show a new device. What I am doing or not doing? Stock rooted JB.

Have you used the sixaxis app?
Yes and usb/bt. Neither one will find either controller in wired mode.

Sounds like your missing a huge step. Did you do the whole Mac address thing?
(⊙_⊙)
Are you sure your usb adapter cable is compatible with the s3? Try plugging a usb thumb drive in if its no recognized then its not compatible. Also you dont need the six axis app with this phone since ps3 conroller is natively supported.

Correct but that is my problem. I am using the default cable that came with the gameklip. It connects fine to my camera etc. My PC, just will not show on the phone. I have to believe the cable is just faulty.
As for mac address that should be unnecessary for a wired plug in. I got it connected after driving to my friends house and using a windows machine to change the mac address. I still can not connect it physically but without a second cable to test against, I can't say for sure it is the cable but I do believe it to be so.
Only other problem I have now which I can't seem to find is that the games won't accept long presses. Example, in Silent Hill, R1 is side step, but also holding it draws your weapon but nothing happens.Just side steps. I am trying to research if it is just the game itself or a setting I can somehow manipulate. I have never had an Android and in the last 3 weeks have rooted it, overclocked it, undervolted it and through on all the emulators. Too many awesome things to do at once lol
I used this back in the summer when I was playing MGS on the S3:
Granted, it's the wireless setup, but it just don't follow the whole tutorial to get the wired setup.
I have bought two otg adapters the first didnt work for me and the second one i bought from amazon the reviews said it worked for the s3 that one worked.
Just use sixaxis and change the controllers mac address to the phone. It straight up says on gameklips website that the T-Mobile version isn't compatible with the wired option.
I use the wireless setup and it works perfectly. Stock rooted here.

If you have an USB OTG cable then you don't need to mess around with MAC addresses or anything else, very straightforward to pair the PS3 controllers directly on the phone with Sixaxis Controller if you have a USB OTG cable.
Try and plug a mouse or USB key drive in to the OTG cable to see if it turns up. If it doesn't, the cable is faulty.
I bought an OTG cable on eBay that didn't work. The seller sent another when I reported it faulty (I didn't need to send anything back), and the second one worked fine allowing the PS3 controller to work.

I haven't been able to get OTG working with an Xbox One controller (it seems to draw too much power as the phone just freezes then shutdowns). I've tried a bunch of cables - some restart some don't. The closest I've got is the controller vibrating every 10 seconds or so. Has anyone got a working Xbox One controller with this phone via OTG?

I've gotten a wireless Xbox 360 controller to work using a wireless receiver but I think directly plugging in a wired controller is just too much for the axon 7's port to handle

Anyone know how many amps the Axon 7's USB C port can output? Might give some insight as to why some OTG devices aren't working.
Bumping this. I have a Ps4 controller that was working fine with my OPO via USB OTG. I tried it with the Axon 7 via the same USB OTG cable, but with the USB-C adapter that came with the Axon 7.
The Ps4 controller lights up, but doesn't actually work.
Would be very disappointed if power draw is limiting this aspect of the phone.

I haven't gotten any OTG devices working with the USB-C to MicroUSB adapter (ps4 controller, 2.5" portable HDD, USB memory sticks). Perhaps this adapter is only for charging and not for data/OTG? Or perhaps the MicroUSB OTG cable I'm using is just incompatible with the adapter.
I've now ordered and am awaiting proper USB-C OTG cables.

Do update us if that helps.
Seems like YMMV with USB-OTG. there's a video of someone getting thumb drives to read with USB-OTG on YouTube. There's also someone on Reddit who got a 360 controller to work OTG also. Dunno if the latter used the adapter, though.
I decided to check if it would read my Tab S2, and sure enough, it was able to read the media content.
OK, I ordered a Belkin USB-C to USB-A adapter. Still no luck. Seems like the adapter might not have been the issue after all. As before, the Ps4 controller will light up, but won't respond.
From what I've read online, this Belkin cable has passed proper USB-C certifications, too.
EDIT - I tried a wired Xbox 360 controller, it works.
Still it's a bit of an inconvenience. The cord for the 360 controller is way too long. I specifically bought the Ps4 controller because I had a GCM10 controller mount from Sony. It holds the Axon 7 perfectly.
Also tried an Xbox One. As a previous user said, the phone simply shuts off when trying this.
Get my A2017G yesterday and non of my USB Stick work with the Axon as OTG
I use the orig. c -> microusb adapter with four different otg cables and 10 of different usb sticks (that all work fine with other otg phones with the same otg cables).
Then i use the Axon c adapter on my PC with USB C but same here, dont recognizes any stick.
Is the Axon C adapter only for charge? But i wonder that when i used the adapter with normal micro usb cable on pc, the phone was detected.
Any solution why otg want work on phone?

Have you try reboot? For me worked.
Στάλθηκε από το ZTE A2017G μου χρησιμοποιώντας Tapatalk
Yes, more then one times reboot with and without stick in but no luck
The included micro usb to usb c adapter/dongle seems to work for transferring files to the computer and charging. I tried the adapter with my old otg cable and it did not work with any usb flash drives that i have. However a usb c otg adapter from ebay works with all the drives fine.
USB OTG works but the Axon 7 is lacking drivers. I got a USB thumb drive to mount but there's no Ethernet support.

If people still want to use a Ps4 controller, you can try the Sixaxis Controller app on the app store. It costs $2.99. it connects the Dualshock 4 via BT, but there's no noticeable latency. I've been using it the past few days. One other good thing about this is that you can also charge the phone while using this method.

Connecting an Xbox controller

Hey guys, I just got the Razer phone and I'm trying to connect a wireless Xbox 360 controller to the device. I'm using an otg cable to the wireless dongle but it doesn't pick it up, I've done this with several of my old devices all of witch were HTCs. Is there any software I need to install? It worked out of the box with all my previous phones, no root or additional software.
Maybe the issue is in the otg?? I connect a ps4 controller via Bluetooth.
Does the phone support USB OTG ?
I have seen that the nextbit robin phone does not and razer acquired them to make this phone.
It does support otg and the cable is not the issue, it's the same cable I used to connect it on my previous device.
Indeed, Razer Phone has OTG support and it works with pendrives, keyboards, mouses but doesn't work with my wired Xbox 360 Controller...
Any ideas?

As far as I know, the thing doesn't HAVE proper controller support.
Except maybe the Razer Raiju Mobile that just came out.
Razer Tech Support said there's no OTG or controller support.
I plug my DS4 in directly to the phone, nothing. I plug an S8 to the controller with the same wire, recognizes it fully.
This phone is the most finicky device I've ever dealt with.
