PS3 controllers are not standard HID devices, they cannot be used with anything other than a PS3 without special drivers.
Pershoot's kernels include these special drivers as part of the "lib" archive. Unfortunately module autoloading is not yet available for these drivers so you have to manually load hid-sony.ko
It works

I can't get my 360 controller to work either. I plug it in and it says unknown usb device.

The PS3 controller works perfect on the XOOM without any special drivers or anything. Just need to plug it in. Can't seem to get it to work on my 10.1 though and can't get my 360 controller to work as well. It's pretty crappy, I may have to go buy a wiimote to get a controller for my 10.1 instead.

I'm having this same problem. All other USB devices I plug in work fine (mouse, keyboard, usb drive, usb hub, etc), but none of my 360 controllers work. I get the same "Unknown USB Device" error, I also noticed that the lights on the controller keep turning on and off, like it starts to get power for a split second and then off.
This is the main reason that I bought the adapter.

Can I ask what people use game controllers on the tablet for? (Duh, games, but which games or apps are enhanced by having a two stick controller?)

I want it for emulators (N64oid, SNesoid, etc.) SNesoid doesn't need 2 sticks but N64oid could. Also, I don't have any other controllers.

So unless I root and swap kernels, there's no way I can get it working?
Nope. xpad.ko and hid-sony.ko are not compiled into the stock kernels.
I don't have any links other than Pershoot's kernel at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1138167, I'm a bit of a Linux guru so I was able to figure it out myself.
Install the kernel.
Download and extract the "lib" archive to /data/local/modules/ as described on Pershoot's blog (which I can't access at the moment)
Run "insmod /data/local/modules/hid-sony.ko" in a shell, either via Android Terminal Emulator or an ADB shell.
One of these days I'm going to see if there's a way to get module autoloading to work, or maybe see if hid-sony and xpad can be just compiled right in.

That apk posted above didn't work for me on my non-rooted A500. Another site tipped me that you need root for this, so thought I'd mention it here.
You have to have a rooted tablet!!
DUh
I didn't have to do anything special, no root, no special apps. Just plugged in my Logitech wireless mouse receiver into the USB port and turned on the mouse. Works just like a mouse should...
I'm fairly certain they're just pulling your leg. I've tried 3 different mice, two with propitary wireless recivers, and they all work fine, plug and play, on everything I've ever done on this tab since I got it (I received it with stock 3.1, have used up to current stock, and have used 2 different roms)
I'm running on stock 3.2 using a arc touch on mine. Works like a charm.

Hi there! First thread after a year reading xda Just wondering if there's any list of gamepads that work with ICS. I tried the Xbox 360 Wired controller but doesn't seem to work with MAME anymore. Thanks in advance!
letsgophillyingeneral said:
N64oid works well, so far. MarioKart 64 runs pretty damn well and using the PS3 controller - I even have a shortcut on my desktop that goes straight to MarioKart 64
As for SNES, I have SNESDroid installed and have tested a few games. Some ROMs had issues, like Smash TV, and were not playable. Other ROMs worked perfectly fine, such as Zombies Ate My Neighbors.
The main problem is getting two PS3 controllers to work independently. I haven't had time to mess with it since I last posted.
EDIT: I connected my Transformer to the 60" TV in our video conferencing room and played some MarioKart64 and GTAIII The audio sounded great and the video only lagged a little bit. It was funny to hear the MarioKart sounds coming from the speakers mounted in the ceiling.

PS3 controller via Bluetooth is the way to go. And even if the app doesn't officially support the controller you can create a touch profile within the six axis app and use the controller on what is normally a touch screen game. Like I play modern combat 3 w/ a ps3 controller on my phone for example.

I saw where the galaxy tab has this game but the people in the Gameloft forums complain about it saying it sucks ass and what not. Lolololol
Guess ill try to find the apk for that and edit my build.prop to match, kinda disappointing to know I bought the game on my phone and when I finally get a tablet, I can't even play it on my tablet
I also emailed Gameloft about it and the guy that contacted me back pretty much kept walking me around circles saying it could be looked into and blah blah blah.
On the other hand, playing games like shadowgun is 10x better on this than my phone!

Dont change the build.prop, it wont do any good or help at all.
Your only option is to get a hold of apk's with the device check removed.
Anyway, since this is a thread about gamepads... Have anyone tried an xbox controller (NOT 360, the original)?
Original xbox controller Does Not work. At all. Sorry X.x Even with the special USB adapter cable I bought.

How would that not help? The apk checks it to make sure the device is "compatible" with the games.
An example of this would be people playing order and chaos on newer devices like the new Droid razr, a guy on my friends list said he had to change his build.prop to make it think it was some other phone (I forgot what it was) and I have also seen other tablets run the game even though its not supported

You should copy the *.ko files to e.g. /sytem/lib/modules
and copy the *.kl to /system/usr/keylayout/
So open terminal:
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
(copy the files using cp)
insmod /system/lib/modules/hid_logitech.ko (and others)
However the insmod is not perminent after reboot.
Script to insmod after reboot:
echo "#!/system/bin/sh" >> /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
echo "insmod /system/lib/modules/ff-memless.ko" >> /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
echo "insmod /system/lib/modules/hid-dr.ko" >> /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
echo "insmod /system/lib/modules/hid_logitech.ko" >> /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
echo "insmod /system/lib/modules/xpad.ko" >> /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
chmod 777 /system/etc/install-recovery.sh

Doesn't seem to work for me. I've paired it using the MotionInJoy pair tool and every time I start up the Sixaxis Controller on the N7, it hangs at "Listening for controllers..."
I tried to pair it with the PC, so I connected my N7 to the PC and the Sixaxis controller to the PC as well. I installed the Sixaxis Pair Tool from the dev's website, and it just hangs at "searching..." regardless of whether MotionInJoy can see the very same controller or not.
I've used this tool before on my Motorola Atrix flawlessly, but the damn thing's fighting me on the N7.
I'm beginning to wonder if it's because I'm running Paranoid Android Beta 2.99. Or even worse, because I have a 32GB Nexus 7. I certainly hope not, because I just got done unlocking, and I spent so much time pimping it ooooooout.

I also have PA Beta 2.99 and I don't have this problem. It used to happen to me, the "searching..." problem. It solved when I change the connector of the Sixaxis and the PC. Maybe the one you're using is broken.
I don't think you have this problem because of having the 32Gb version of N7. Good Luck!
The latest versions don't need the PC anymore. Just use the sixaxis app and wire the PS3 pad to your Nexus 7 with a OTG cable + mini usb cable for the PS3 pad, then pair it directly from the app. This worked for me, since the PC method did not work no matter what I did, and has been working well with 4.2.1.
1.) Items Required
a. Wireless Ps3 controller
b. PS3 controller usb cord.
c. rooted Nexus 7
d. standard usb charger for android device

Yeah I tried to find something on craigslist but came up with nothing. ebay has some but I don't like buying electronics from other people. Best buy has them for $55. I just found a $25 gift card but still not sure if its worth it lol How good does it work with games? Main reason for all this is my xbox 360 broke and don't have the money to buy a new one. Also with the possibility of a new one coming out this year, I'd rather wait. But I'd like to play games still but the touch screen just isn't efficient.
Huh? You guys didn't know you could do it without an OTG cable? I was under the impression that 99% of people just used the PC Software.
BTW, MAKE sure you buy an original Sony controller. If not, you'll probably never even get it synced. Sir_earl has said countless times that 3rd party controllers aren't the same and he hasn't really been able to support them.

like i was saying i skipped that app entirely, everything works except for touch emulation.... it must be something with the phone itself because i tested out another emulation app called USB/BT Joystick and after mapping the touch keys it did not respond at all
it appears that the ps3 controller works for apps built in with some type of support but we cannot emulate the touch commands
maybe someone in the international threads can shed some light on this matter

sticks
I've been using the sixaxis with my note 3 for about a week now...it's amazing in MC4...I initially got it though for Sky Gamblers Air supremacy...having trouble with the right stick, there is a dead spot in the middle and when moving past that it moves too fast to accurately aim. I'm pretty handy with a few coding languages, though linux/java are certainly not in my toolbox. how hard would it be to insert a parabolic response without a dead spot into the stick's input...slow movement on the inside and fast on the outside? seems like it would be a simple math function...though I have no idea where to begin. input would simply need to be run through a math function before being output, no? I can crunch the numbers if I know what I'm dealing with to start...not sure what max range is, or what the controller is capable of registering...parabolic function would make aiming MUCH easier. not sure if it's a limitation of the hardware, or if it's just something nobody thought of....but in SGAS the right stick is taking control of what would normally be the accelerometer so it's a bit touchy...perhaps I can better show with drawing...forgive TOTAL lack of scale...but this simple sketch might explain.
edit: some amount of customization of the curve would be ideal...perhaps on a sliding scale...but it would still allow access to max range (important for sharpe turns/maneuvering) while being smooth on the inside (for aiming/tracking moving targets) if there is someone competent enough here to edit the code, I'd be glad to help with the math behind calculating the curves
