Hi Guys,
Im hoping someone can help me with this problem. My bluetooth gamepad isn't working properly with my emulators. The analogue stick and dpad work but the buttons dont (they only work for navigation, not in-game actions). I've read somewhere that this is a problem with Android 11, is there any way to fix it/a workaround?
Im using the .emu emulators from Robert Broglia from the playstore
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks
EDIT, maybe its my gamepad (madcatz ctrl), i've just tried an xbox one controller and it's working fine, i've got a Gamesir X2 bluetooth on order so hopefully that works fine too

Pretty exciting stuff. I gave it a shot and it seems to work well, but you really need a controller to go anywhere. Has anyone tried a phonejoy or similar with onlive? Or would you need to get the onlive branded one?
I actually just got my shipment notification from Phonejoy. I'm very interested in seeing if this will work. I'm crossing my fingers since phonejoy states the app must allow keyboard input for their controller to work. Onlive certainly allows for keyboard input. I'll report back once I get my controller.
PhoneJoy partially works
SO far I have managed to get the direction keys to work, but not the regular buttons. I will let you know when or if they are working.
Can we use the sixaxis program and use our wireless ps3 controllers for this?
I'm wondering, has there been any developement? I would LOVE to get my Phonejoy working on OnLive, it would make it simply perfect.

i just emailed onlive.
ofcourse, they want us to buy a universal onlive controller, otherwise they are unwilling to help.
heres a thought, figure out what keys do what on a bluetooth keyboard paired with the phone and then set up phonejoy to use these keys as buttons.

Yes, assuming sixaxis controller works on the SII. Only used it on my Tab

Could anyone provide an update on whether this was successful for you guys? My Kindle Fire HD is arriving tomorrow and I'm interested in using the phonejoy bluetooth controller with it and the OnLive gaming service.
P.S. The noob video for this site is hilarious. And awesome. I hope I'm doing the right thing. :laugh:
Does it have a mapping tool so you can play games that don't support a controller or can you not download them at all?
don't know really. It has some kind of touch pad on it. But since Ouya has a controller, the games designed for it will have gamepad inputs.
for other games, who knows yet. Maybe Sixasxis Controller app may be able to help. It has touch simulator profiles. It's rather hit and miss on it's success. It's not the app, but some game's touch inputs are not static, so it makes it more difficult to setup.
they support sixaxis controllers natively, and there are rumours that a few people will be porting their controller-mapping apps to OUYA, for the purpose of adapting those touchscreen .apk's...
There is nothing so far on the marketplace or on the major OUYA forums
Has anyone tested the Interworks Controller Pro U (aka Retro Classic Controller) with the Ouya (or any Android device)? I'm especially interested in joystick functionality...

Hi all, i'm writing here for introduce my problem with ipega controller, in particular with pg-9017.
I have the nexus 4 and i just receive 2-3 days ago the update of android to 4.4 kitkat version, before that i could use without problems and specific configuration the controller with all emulators and some other games, an example was demon hunter 4 (in joystick mode).
But after the update, nothing work anymore, i just let work with emulators using using Bluez IME but the other game, still nothing.
The problem in particular is the fact that the 2 analog stick usually work but there aren't set the functions of other keys of the controller, for example in demon hunter or in wild blood the 2 stick works, and u can move and make action, but no way to make skills.
And now my question, anybody here have the same problem? And there is a way for fix this? Maybe using a particular configuration program.
I upload your post and good luck friend.
Hi
I've been toying with the idea of using the note as amongst other things a sort of game tab.
With that said, I've been researching around the web and found a plethora of gampads both usb and BT.
Now the one thing that seems to be an issue is game support and remapping of keys.Also in alot of cases ( samsung gamepad!!! ) you also have to repurchase the games either from playstore or from developer xxxxxx market .
I've tested a few , amongst them steelseries free, but there is always something missing.
For example I love the size and feel of the steelseries, but the game support is so so, and even games that it does support have missing features/ functions. Best example GTA 3 + steelseries free = no button for horn in the game ( a few missions actually need that)
Now I've considered getting a ps3 controller, but I'm not planing to root my unit anytime soon ( unless the whole knox issue is sorted), but then I'm left with the question is there a way to remap key without root?
Or for that mater are there any other controllers that would allow that without root??
Anyone?
Check out the Nyko Playpad. I BELIEVE with the Nyko Playground app you might be able to do the reconfiguration to your liking.
My review of the pad is here: http://reviews.greenrobotgamer.com/game-review/nyko-playpad-pro-controller/
Can anyone confirm the remapping of nyko is possible without root??
Anyone have anything to add to this?

Try a wired ps3 pad with sixassix or however its spelt its not to problematic but unsure if you can remap without root but I'm sure that will be your best bet its quite easy to remap and build touch profiles just search YouTube and you will be well away
I have a moga controller and use the universal moga driver app. It allows me to use the controller as a virtual keypad (gamepad mode requires root) and it works just fine for my PSOne and SNES games.
I'd also recommend the moga pro. Best gamepad out there. Official and unofficial driver app, for gamepad or keyboard input and complete 360 style layout. Also very nice attachment for smartphones and works with alot of games out of the box and all emulators i tried have a profile for it. Epsxe for example even with analog support.

Can you confirm key remapping and " touchscreen "support ?

Hm not sure if I understand correctly what you mean so I'll try
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.obsidianx.android.mogaime
with this app you can use the gamepad in "keyboard mode" meaning you can map any button on the gamepad to any "key" possible on the android keyboard. In this mode all keys are digital buttons though including the analog sticks, because that's the way keyboards work. This works without root.
The app has a gamepad mode which enables full analog support for the sticks but that requires root.
-->BUT there is an official moga app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bda.pivot.mogapgp) which also has two modes which you can switch to with the controller itself. There is a "moga" mode (green light) and a standard HID gamepad mode (orange light). With those two modes you're able to basically play every android game that has built in gamepad support, including full analog sticks. And both the ps1 emulator i use (epsxe) and the N64 emu (Mupen64) work with one of those modes out of the box. I don't even have the universal driver installed anymore because it is not needed in most cases.
Now to your other thing, I believe you mean mapping touchscreen input to the buttons? Bad news: There is no app or controller that allows you to do that without root. As far as I know at least, and I was following the development of those apps quite closely, even worked as a beta tester for this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.poke64738.usbjoygold
Just the info I was looking for
While on the subject, does the sixaxis app work without root? Might be able to get my hands on a ps3 controller.
Strongly considering moga at this point.
btw any experience with the moga pocket or hero (small one) ??

Sixaxis and a PS3 controller work very well, have touchscreen support and allow remapping but you have to be rooted. I have used Sixaxis on my Xoom and S4 (both of which are rooted) but thanks to Samsung and their stupid Knox nonsense, I cannot use Sixaxis on my Note.
I figured that you need root to get touchscreen part working, but do you need root for the rest ( on the sixaxis app) ie will it work at all without root?
Not keen on shelling out 25$ and realising that I might as well bought a moga hero or pocket for a 10 or so more that would to the job just as well.
btw any thoughts on nyko playpad vs moga hero or pocket?

Just read the description of the app on play store. The first line under important says Root required. So yes it needs root. And I'm sure you'll find reviews of those controllers on YouTube.
You can connect a ps3 controller to a android wireless but you will need root privileges. An OTG Cable Could be used to connect the controll with a wire and without root.
Can someone list multiplayer games that work with the Amazon controllers and emulators that can be mapped correctly? Im trying to get something the wife and I can play at night and Im struggling with controller mapping, etc.
Thanks

Multiplayer games depend on what you like. My son & I are enjoying Bombsquad and justo got Sev Zero. For having friends over the You Don't Know Jack Party & Fibbage is alot of fun and Asphalt 8 is pretty good.
So far, I have MAME4droid (0.139u1) working OK on some roms but better yet I have Nostalgia.NES working pretty damn good. Was able to map the keys on my NYKO PlayPad Pro and I'm happy with it.
Still have plans to try a few more emulators, but am happy with playing SMB & Galaga on Nostalgia.NES

Does Nostalgia support two controllers on AFTV? That'd be sweet to be SMB with a friend.

I havent had any luck getting Nostalgia NES to map. Even trying to use a mouse and keyboard to move to the button Im trying to map, I cant get it to map nor can I get any games to launch. Maybe it doesnt like the Amazon controllers.
snes9xex works great and buttons map well.
epsxe works great too, buttons map well, I've been playing two player ps1 games on it using a ps4 controller and the firetv controller.
Im losing my mind trying to map these controllers to work with emulators. Can someone explain to me like Im 3 how to map these damn Fire controllers and get the sticks, etc to work? My latest attempt was ePSXe. I can get the buttons and the analog pad to work but I cant get the sticks to work. Ive yet to get any emulator to the point I can actually play it and Ive messed with pretty much every one out there... Id be deeply grateful if someone could give me mapping for ePSXe, Nostalgia NES and Snes9xex.
Im seriously regretting not buying a controller that actually has profiles in these things. Im about to throw a controller through the TV.

on epsxe I've got my left stick X analog mapped to Axis X, left stick Y is mapped to Axis Y, right stick X is mapped to Axis RX, and right stick Y is mapped to Axis RY. L2 trigger is Axis_brake and R2 is Axis_gas. go to 'preferences', then 'player 1 input preferences', then 'map axis'.
PPSSPP works fantastically. I spent the entire day yesterday playing Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep on it. Plus you can upscale the graphics so it looks even better than the ps3 version.
