I know its a question, but its a qustion about apps / games so i think it makes more sense here? If not can a mod please move it? Thanks!
After lots of googling i got my sixaxis controller working on my I9100, now to load it with games!
Obviously emulators can have key inputs set to controller keys, what im interested in is what other games have keyboard controls that can be mapped to the sixaxis controller? Pref games that are higher quality / 3d but at this point i'll take what i can get!
So: What games will work with the sixaxis or bluetooth keyboards or controllers?
I know there is already a thread for non-experia phones. I was wondering what kind of accessories would let you have a better experience. Could you hook up a mouse and keyboard? Six-axis Controller?
Currently tried the six axis controller and did not have any luck. Has anyone else had different luck?

I don't think you can do, they updated the controls with another scheme with another update not too long ago so perhaps adding controller support isn't at the top of their list
I love Minecraft, but hate the Pocket Edition, it's terrible, even with survival mode ha ha, it's not that much better on the Xbox either, PC - in this instance - is king
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.
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
