Ok so heres the good news. After hours of trying to figure this out, I can confirm that the sixaxis ps3 controller does work
with the kindle fire hd.
So here's what you'll need..
Must have root...Theres no other way.
Apps... Sixaxis Compatibility Checker - This will let you know if your device is compatible. - Free in the play store.
Sixaxis Controller $1.99 in the playstore. - But remember google is your friend.
You will also need one program for your computer
Sixaxis pair tool. - This Is used to change the master numbers on your ps3 controller.
So Far Games That i know work are all emulators and roms and the following big hits.
Gta 3
Shadowgun
Modern Combat 3
If you have any questions feel free to ask...
how did you configure it for modern combat 3???
can you show steps

I tried to get it to work yesterday but I couldn't get the pair tool to recognize the contoller via usb. It kept giving me a driver error. Can you provide me with a link to a Windows 7 controller driver and maybe some steps on how you got it to work?
Going to try this out, looks pretty simple but I can already see myself having troubles. Thanks for the tutorial mate!

doriean,
Very nice tutorial, thank you for being a part of the XDA Community! Since you do development work on your
Kindle get it backup! We just launched a new Backup and Recovery package here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2096888
I can confirm this does work, if you are using KFHD 7" theres no need for the compatibility tool, it does work. However I've noticed that it only works with games configured to work with a gamepad. Touch emulation does not work it seems so games like MC4 don't work.

Katalystik,
My opinion only.
I believe that all controllers should be tested using the Compatibility Checker due to known issues around certain
applications and controllers. Sixaxis designed the compatibility checker for a good reason - it solves many headaches
since it intelligently displays what applications are going to conflict with the controller being tested. Touch Emulation
is a known issue, our Team is working with Sixaxis to solve the problem. If you would like to monitor or join the
thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2077341 - we will post the solution to the XDA

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

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.

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.

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
e. pc with 2 open usb ports windows 7 or earlier "windows 8 broken"

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.

Ok so I'm going to use a computer that has windows 7 on it. Now will the controller always stay synced up to my phone even if I use it with my PS3, or will I have to hook it up to the computer everytime I want to use it?
Edit - Windows 7 to the f'ing rescue! Playing Deadtrigger with a controller is so much better. Made the game 10 times better for me. Between flashing ROMS for the N7 and S3, I am in flasher heaven minus the tatas but hey that's what a girlfriends for right?

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

There's the Ouya ODK meant for the android SDK, it has the framework APK and launcher APK. it used to work on nexus 7 2012 but it hasn't been maintained and is not something the ouya team really cares about.

They are working on the "Ouya Everywhere" thing (apparently an Ouya app market for other "microconsoles" but I surely won't be trusting it for fear that it will interfere with games I've bought through other channels (Humble Bundle, Play Store, etc) as the Ouya OS did on the actual Ouya device when I tried to sideload DRM-free purchases from Humble Bundle, etc. The excuse I was given was that the Ouya system uses the package name to determine if a game was legally purchased or not. Instant loss of faith in the abilities of their development team for me right there...
Really feels to me like the Ouya project is getting ready to abandon the whole thing in favor of this "Ouya Everywhere" junk, and if that's the case, I'm done with 'em. I'ma convert my Ouya to CyanogenMod and those few games I was foolish enough to already buy from the Ouya Market are the absolute LAST of my money Ouya will ever see.

This may help.
