If someone can/has figured this out I'll buy you a beer.
you can use a wiimote..
Actually, you can't:

It is unclear to me whether this is because the Captivate lacks HID profile support, or because as a BT 3.0 device there is some kind of incompatability (I have heard both).

Sorry, never gonna happen. PS3 controller maybe but the 360 controller isn't BT, it uses a proprietary wireless standard.
Why Xbox or Playstation crap is way overpriced!
If you want to use your phone as an emulator that bad you might as well just pay the $10 for a cheapo BT controller. Don't you want something a lot smaller than a bigun PS3 or x360 controller, I'd think something micro would be better suited for travel.
Plus if you're going to be inside to use this (unless your TV is outside), why not just use a PC and out it at 1080 for the real deal? Or is it more for nostalgia
Cool factor only. But it would be neat if I could use the video out to the TV at the shore house and play a game on that. No PC at my shore house:-(

But they also have wired versions that use USB. I don't have a clue about this at all, so I don't know if that's even remotely possible, just throwing one more idea out there. Not as pretty of a solution but if the USB could be sized down to micro and plugged in... Probably not, like I said, just throwing it out there. Would definitely be cool though.

Not really possible because the USB doesn't have host support. If someone could write it into the kernel it would be awesome but then there would be many driver issues to arise.
I would just opt for a mini BT gamepad, I am thinking of getting one and loading some old SNES games on my phone.
Wait... is there an actual mini BT game controller that works? I would simply buy one now. Can you point us?
The zeemote looks complicated, you would think a wireless bluetooth snes style controller without axis controls would be simple enough, although I know everyone wants the ps3 for its controls. But this would be an awesome start.
Hopefully with more buttons than the wiimote so snes games play decent.
I would just use the computer you are posting from for this kinda thing.

Some have modded these with a SNES controller. If I had any soldering skills I would try it.

Yeah, I kinda wondered about that, but like I said, I'm new to Android so I'm still learning what it can and can't do.
Still, a controller, especially wireless would be awesome to have. I have reason to believe from talking to someone involved that the Wiimote may not be totally out of the equation. Even if not on stock ROMs, custom ROMs may be able to make it work. I guess like everything else we'll just have to wait and see.
wiimote wont work with samsung phones. The developer of wiimote controller emailed me and said its because of the way samsungs added junk deals with bluetooth. Apparently they modify how bluetooth is dealt with from the stock android.
Hmmm... Interesting ideas.... I never even thought about a Bluetooth controller, that could possibly be the answer right there. Has anyone ever messed around with one? Would it be easy to set up with the captivate? Basically I just wanna be able to go over to my friends place and be like, "yo dudes, check THIS OUT!" And play old school games from my phone. More of a novelty than anything really.
illl try to set one up tomorrow and let you guys know if a reg bluetooth one will work with our 3.0. i remember hearing that it wont but i'll verify.
My understanding is that the galaxy S phones dont use the standard "BlueZ" stack. which is why it wont work.
Can anyone confirm if that bluetooth controller linked above from DealExtreme would work? So theoretically, a controller made for bluetooth 3.0 devices would work?

It def. works with Android, but a paid drivers pack from the market is required. Now whether it works with the Galaxy S due to the different Bluetooth stack is the unknown part.
I am not sure how deeply the drivers interact with the bluetooth stack, and if they only work with the stock Android stack. I am planning on buying both the controller above and a SNES controller to mod for use with my PC, and phone if it works.
I am having trouble finding a SNES controller locally but I am told that I can get one on Monday from a buddy at my work.
Just checking to see if anybody has made progress on finding a controller for the captivate/galaxy s?
This is probably one of my most wanted features... get that wiimote working somehow.

So I was digging through the source code Samsung released for the Galaxy S, and in the eclair zip I started digging through the bluetooth folder and came across multiple files that look like they support pairing a PS3 controller...
when you have functions like
Code:
static int ps3remote_decode
it gets you thinking lol.
So anyone with some experience with this device let me know if its even possible to pair with a sixaxis or dual shock 3, and if you have some experience with source take a look at the attached zip, its the
external/bluetooth/bluez/input folders contents
Main references are in sixpair.c which is the actual pairing application I'd assume, and in fakehid.c, and fakehid.h

I wouldn't jump to conclusions to fast. Because of the DLNA support I think they are talking about the PS3 remote control not the controller.
I'm sure the support can be added but it probably would take a little bit of hacking.
you know I'm not so sure now. I just looked in the main branch of Froyo source, and sure enough those files are still there. So I don't think it has anything to do with DLNA. Plus if it did, why would it have anything in there having to do with pairing a PS3 controller and decoding the button presses of one and assigning them to keyboard presses. Has absolutely nothing to do with DLNA
As I said its probably referencing the video playback remote control and not the game controller. Both use Bluetooth
Sent from my Behold II using XDA App
and like I said Sixpair.c specifically Mentions Dualshock 3, so I don't think thats what it's mentioning. Especially considering theres button mapping for L3 and R3 which isnt on the bluetooth remote for PS3

You didn't mention that in your first post. You just said can it be configured with a dual shock or sixaxis controller.
sixpair is a helper to pair with a Sony DS3/Sixaxis bluetooth controller.
it is part of the bluetooth protocol stack for Linux, called Bluez.
they used this helper to get the DS3/6axis to work on the Nokia N900.
So it is possible!!!
this is just amazing if it could do that

Wii/PS3 bluetooth controller problem?
All reports of the WiiMoteController say it doesnt work on the Galaxy S.
Do we know why exactly? the author comments on this for the HTC devices. does the galaxy S share the same problem?
"on some devices, mostly HTC, the application starts searching and then stops immediately with the "Error no -1" message, even if the bluetooth is on. Most likely a fault from HTC and unfixible for now. See this thread for technical info. If you're a developer and have solved this kind of issue before, please tell how! A lot of Android users will be very grateful
(finding the wiimote with the phone is not the actuall issue here, but rather the lack of support for the low-level connectivity with the phone's bluetooth. BAD, BAD HTC! Go stand in the corner!)"
is this a quick fix or something deeper?
With regards to the htc sense affecting the wii controller app - I believe theres a bug with the htc bluetooth stack that returns null when pairing devices this stops code beyond this from executing, or something along those lines.
The way around this is to use a ROM, without Htc sense like OpenDesire, which has been tested on these forums.
Still as yet i don't know what the reason is for the Samsung Galaxy S, if its a similar bluetooth issue, but i'm as eager as you to find out because it would make the perfect emulation device with that screen!

Awaking from sleepy mode : What? Around the corner? How far till a workin one?
I would LOOOVE a psx emulator with a working PS3 controler.. Maybe with froyo (also around the corner) we get 2 flies at once.. Faster emulator and (support for) a real controler (WOW!)
droidforums.net/forum/droid-games/35309-playstation-emulator-development-40.html
its pretty much ready just waiting for a few tweaks from the emulator android guy. only the dev's word on that though, but its the same guys who did the iphone emulators zottd (or something) and the guy who did the android emulators. should be a good product.
and yes wtb froyo and increased bluetooth support for controllers
they also mention about the PS3 controller and there may be a way to sync it but you need to sync with a PC first...not sure on the reasoning behind that.

Man, that would be sweet. One thing about the galaxy s is that it has a great screen and powerful GPU but the only controls are the ones on the screen that are difficult to play with. I know this is of topic but does anyone know if the wiimote will ever be compadable with the galaxy s. I have tried it and does not work as of now.
It will work when the cyanogenmod ROM comes out, they have announced they are supporting the Galaxys S, should only be a matter of time.
It's just to use the ps3 controller to control your games. You can do the same with the WiiMote, you can even use it in the NES and SNES emulators.
I could have sworn when I had my Samsung S2 I would plug in an xbox controller via usb through a USB OTG cable and it would just work in games. This isn't happening with my Verizon LG G2 that I thought supports USB OTG. When I plug in a media card reader for example I actually see a popup like something is working. Nothing pops up when I plug in the xbox controller.
Anyone get a gamepad to work or have suggestions?

I'm on Moga and Moga Pro Bluetooth controllers! Don't have a OTG cable. I did get a slimport cable though, and let me tell you, it is sweet playing Modern Combat 4 in 720p on my projector (don't have a 1080p projector) with a wireless controller ON A PHONE!
so you love the Moga? I guess I just figured since I had an xbox controller I'd save the money and only have to worry about battery life on the phone and not the controller. Also the xbox controller is awesome. What to do.... ugh.
Anyone else with gamepad setups they want to share? I guess I'll end up pulling the trigger soon if I can't resolve this. My gaming impatience will get the best of me : )
Another reason why I want wired is to reduce lag etc.. although I don't have experience with bluetooth lag but any perceptible amount is not worth it to me. So check out the email I wrote to LG:

I like the Mogas but they Feel similar to a 360.
Personally I think you can't get any better then a PS3 controller. It will work Wired out of the box (haven't tried on the G2) and also wirelessly through bluetooth with the rooted sixaxis app.
The PS3, I think, is a much better controller because of the separated DPad that becomes very very handy in retro gaming. Try playing SNES Mario World with a Moga or 360 and you'll hate it. I currently have 2 Ouya BT Controllers, a 360 Controller w/ Wireless Sync USB, and a PS3 controller.
I'm also curious if the PS4 was ever successfully paired to Android yet. The PS4 is similar to my Ouya Controller in a sense that it has the touchpad built in, which makes it very handy for navigating Android apps on a TV that aren't 100% gamepad compatible.
For gamepads to work, they need the specific .KO file that has the profiles. LG may not have included it. Custom roms should work out of the box though.

No answer from LG. I'm furious ! A so good phone and no way to play with a wired controller. I was thinking that the ability was included diectly inside android. Why LG did extract this ability ? Grrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Whoa I'm not saying they excluded it, but probably did... or goofed it up somehow.
Just do Bluetooth. Wired controllers don't work well anyway.
Are you sure it isn't working? You usually are required to download an app from the play store to really start utilizing the controllers for gamplay.
You can also just root and grab an app to restore the .ko file.

I've seen a couple of threads mentioning this. Like here.
The question is probably better asked whether it works with Android or not.
I'm pretty sure if you do a google search, you can find some videos. I know I've recently seen pairing with an Xbox One controller through the USB/BT Joystick app.
I use a USB OTG Cable, and a USB controller. You can buy many IME apps which support this. Seriously go to Wal*Mart or best buy and get a Logitech controller. Easy peasy and it makes playing snes roms a breeze. Why mod a piece of history?
It works fine lol Logitech
I use a wired 360 controller and a converter dongle thing on my nexus 7. I'm not sure if we're pursuing the same end, but It works for me.
I tried 4 controllers and 2 cables but the shield never recognizes it. Is there something special I need to do?
2 cables?? What controllers are you using? Wireless?
Note that the charging cable is only a charging cable there is no data at all. X360 Wireless controllers can only be used on PC or Android devices with the PC receiver Microsoft sells.
Lmfao really?. I've never seen another cable for the 360 to be honest so I assumed that was it. So what's the name of the cable I need?
So I guess I need to get the wireless dongle then huh
Yes if you have wireless controllers they only work on Xbox, for other devices you need the receiver. Wired controllers yes they work without any configuration or addon equipment.
As I said the cables you attach in the front of the controller are only for charging purposes nothing else. Even when you plug it to the xbox and use it, it charges the batteries only the connection is still done via wireless.
Yea I understand, I never had a wired controller so I had no idea.
I don't need that $30 new adapter right?
I see people saying $5-10 ones on ebay, do they mean these?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Wireless-Re...374663?hash=item51cb8d2047:g:RYIAAOSw8d9U1Hyt
Yes those are the chinese ones. I cannot ensure you that they will work straight out of box. I read some posts where people add to edit files to use i on Android. Don't know if its true or not. MS ones are much more expensive but they work fine without tweaks but they are also rare. One possibility is you sell one of your remotes for a good buck and buy the combo remote + receiver. I bought one recently for around 40€ but I had only one remote at home.
Which games are you planning to use it on? Full android TV someone reported today that some Android games are not fully compatible because of the Dpad location. I'm guessing some games need a joystick there like the PS3 remotes have. I'm using mine attached to the PC and I use it to play streaming games only, range is quite good on that receiver. For Android games I will probably use the BT ipega gamepad I bought 1 year ago or droidmote
I will use it on some old retro games with friends. Mario kart, tecmo bowl etc. No games too crazy.

the USB cables for the wireless controllers are ONLY for charging.

I can confirm that the 360 pad is not fully compatible with some AndroidTV games. Specifically, Portal and Half-Life 2 won't accept input from the d-pad. It has nothing to do with the physical location of the pad, as it should show as a "POV Hat" regardless of its physical location. It just doesn't work for some reason.
...which is a shame, because the Shield controller is rubbish.

That depends entirely on how you intend to connect it......
If you intend to use a 'wired' controller via the USB socket on the phone then yes it is possible....though you will need an app of some sort to 'map' the buttons correctly.
If you intend to connect wirelessly, then you're out of luck.....had it been a PS3 or PS4 controller, it would have been a different story.
The xbox controller transmits via RF signals whereas the Sony equivalent transmits via bluetooth.
We can pair bluetooth devices to the phone without issue....but that's not the case for RF devices.
The only reason I know this is because I went through something similar in order to use ePSXe to play PS1 games on my S5 ....In the end I had to get a Moga bluetooth controller to do the job......
Edit.....My bad.....I was commenting about xbox 360 controllers.....just noticed you have an xbox one controller......which connects via wi fi (I believe). That has possibilities.....have you tried connecting it by wi fi direct? If it does connect that way, you'll still need some method of mapping the buttons. It may be the case that someone needs to develop an app that makes the devices communicate with each other too....afraid I haven't looked into that though....never needed it....
Sorry fella...
Edit 2.....just done a bit of research, it turns out there is no 'native' support in Android for wireless controllers, you (apparently) need an interface app and/or a rooted device that you can add/change code on....

I understand updating the firmware...but why do we need to add a profile to it?
You need a Keyboard Layout File or the button mapping will be off. http://forum.xda-developers.com/shi...-one-slim-controller-bluetooth-t3398014/page2

it add it automatically after the update,it inter the controller owner by itself.
has anyone made any forward progress on this idea? I'm thinking about swapping my elite controller for an Xbox One S controller because I would find connecting to my phone much more useful than the elite features I seldom use.

yea Microsoft made the xbox one S controller fully android compatible by firmware upgrade ( you need a cable and a app on pc or xbox one.)
and this controller is bluetooth compatible.making most xbox one original controller (and elite) obsolete.
Anyone have any info on getting the second edition of the Xbox One controller with built-in bluetooth to work on Android?
bump just finished doing the firmware update on my gamepad, reset it and my phone, still thinks my triggers are my right stick. nothing in the xbox accessories app to switch axis around. sigh.
