So i've done the six axis process with my s3, it was successful several times. Currently i'm running stock 4.2 rooted on my nexus 7. I've downloaded the pairing tool for my pc, changed the bluetooth adress of my controller to match my tablet. HOWEVER whenever i go to "start" in the app on my tablet it does the "attempting connection type 1 and then 2" Sits there for a while and never pairs to my device. I'm also seeing similar people having this exact issue
"This app is the greatest thing to happen to Android. It does it all. The touch emulation is fantastic. I really can't say enough good things about it. Buy it! You'll definitely be glad you did."
same thing happens to me and it messes my wifi up. Is this a bug we have to deal with until app dev fixes it or has anyeone heard of a work around?
I'm always able to find an answer in a different site shortly after i post. someone posted this...
I emailed the dev, and he sent me an email yesterday, and he said "I'm aware of this issue and hope to have a fix soon. Android 4.2 has introduced a new Bluetooth stack, so it will take some time to rewrite the sixaxis driver. I hope to have a fix within a week."
I'm in the same shape. This is the only reason I rooted my Nexus 7. I'm not going to roll back to an earlier image. If this isn't fixed in a week or so, Im going to restore my N7 to factory.
I paired my N7 with my mac and got the BT address. I used the mac sixpair app and wrote that address to my PS3 controller. Then I tried the Sixpair Controller test, but no joy via BT or USB. Hopefully this is fixed soon.
I heard that bluetooth was broken with 4.2 :[

I just received my new Tronsmart T428 from Geekbuying on Monday
The biggest problem I'm having though is getting any bluetooth keyboard or mouse to actually work on it. I can pair them all up - but they don't work.
I can pair them to my Nexus 7 and they work just fine (both the T428 and the N7 are running 4.2.2)
Kind of defeats the purpose of having it attached to the TV if I can't actually control anything without sitting within USB tethered range.
That being said - it works great with the Synology apps (DS Video/DS Audio) to get my media to the TV.....haven't tried xbmc yet but that's next up after I get this BT thing figured out....

I'm having the same issue with the Tronsmart T428. I can pair them to my Asus TF700 and they work fine. Any remidies to fix the issue?
I haven't found a solution yet - I was trying to roll back the firmware to 4.1.1 to see if that would fix it - but having problems finding the appropriate drivers to get it to work.
so basically - this is a really cool Android computer - that I have to sit next to my TV to use (wired mouse)
It's an awesome computer I agree. I'm downloading the 4.1.1 firmware as I speak. Have to see if I can get it to flash...
Good luck with that let me know if you manage to figure it out!
UPDATE: I managed to get it backdated to 4.1.1 - video playback is choppy (dropped frames?) but my BT keyboard/mouse works now..
I did get an email back from geekbuying finally...
hi frend
thanks for telling us the troubles u met
pls reset it to the factory first.
if it is the same , pls wait for days.
next week there will be a firmare of ROCKCHIP. to solve that troubles
after we get it ,we will upload to our blog
thanks for ur waiting in advance

so maybe this new firmware will fix it
I managed to get 4.1.1 installed as well. I didn't notice the choppy video using BS Player but it did fix my bluetooth problem although the bluetooth connection doesn't seem to be very strong. I can be 10 feet away from it and it won't hardly work. Wonder if my wifi is interfering wth it since the router is on the other side of the wall. Glad to hear rockchip is supposed to release an update.

There was a box to enable they keyboard but it was already checked...so it should've worked but it didn't. 4.1.1 solved the problem...must be a hardware/software issue somewhere.
Since on Android 4.1 it can work, so it must be a system problem, hope they can release a new firmware soon to fix it.
except that, a really little cool device!

I read somewhere that google replace in android 4.2.2 the bluez stack by a broadcom stack. It mean that some devices are not compatible anymore. Aparently broadcom will be better, but in the mean time some of us will have to use 4.2.1 and below to make our devices working. Broadcom will support bluetooth 4.0 and will be less power draining. I ckecked om google code and there lot of devices reporting not working anymore, we will have to wait until further upgrade.
Firmware May 30 fix
The new firmware relase May 30 fix the bluetooth issue :laugh:

Hi there! I bought a Tegra Note7 which is equipped with Tegra4 Chipsets.Now I want to play games with DualShock3 via SIXAXIS CONTROLLER. The thing is that the app worked very well on my Moto Droid Bionic,but it did not work on my Tegra Note7. When I clicked "start" with every necessary steps done and the screen displayed address of bluetooth and listening for controllers,the "bluetooth" icon did not appear on the top status bar. So the DS3 controller was continuous flashing its 4 red lights,then no other things took place.
I have restored original android 4.3 rom,no changes. Could*you*please*tell me how to work it out? Thank you!
Before I rooted tablet I was able to plug ps3 controller in and was able to map buttons m8 I also used sixaxis enabler and everything fine until rooted then lost all ps3 controller mappings there's very little info on this subject I asked before ,something to do with Bluetooth drivers !

There's really nothing to figure out. The bluetooth stack on the stock ROM just doesn't work with PS3 controllers. Until someone can make a custom ROM with some sort of changes to bluetooth (or until Nvidia releases a ROM with decent bluetooth support), it's just not going to work, and there's nothing we can do to change that.

Any Idea if this is actually possible? sitting with a rooted TN7 which I spent a while figuring out how to root (not particularly learned in android atm) and pretty pissed off that my dreams of having a nice practical ghetto shield without cables have been crushed.

It's technically possible, but there has been almost no developer interest in this device. There are no custom ROMs available, and there's only one alternative kernel available, though I never did try a Sixaxis with that kernel... I do know that it broke support for my Moga, so that's not exactly promising. I'll have to give the Sixaxis a try here in a bit.

Assuming you mean shaky156 kernel I can confirm that it doesn't help the bluetooth issue
Just tried the latest version of Sixaxis with the latest OTA. And it seems to finally work on the built in blutooth stack without a usb dongle!
Hi all,
it seems like there is finally a new firmware available, you can grab it HERE.
Did somebody try it out? Is it KitKat? And does it have Ouya Everywhere?
Yes it has Oyua everywhere and also 4k support but it's still 4.2.2
Also rooting with Modaco broke my Wi-Fi

That firmware was installed on my MOJO when I rooted it on Saturday. I don't have alot of experience, but the only problem I can report is some streaming issues with SD content over WiFi.

If you haven't done so, in order to restore WiFi, you must do a factory reset. Sucks, but it is the only fix I was able to find.

I rooted with towelroot, now everything is working fine except Watchever (crashing when starting video)
Does installing this do a full wipe? And do you lose root? I don't care about wifi.. I'm hardwired.
---------- Post added 25th June 2014 at 12:15 AM ---------- Previous post was 24th June 2014 at 11:15 PM ----------
To answer my own questions - no, it does not do a wipe. Yes, you do lose root.
Rerooting worked. I did not test wifi. If wifi is breaking for some people, I imagine the problem might be that the root process looks like it's just flashing a kernel. Without kernel modules (usually part of a rom), wifi and other stuff (power saving etc) sometimes fail from a mismatch. We might need a current root kernel to flash.
wow, good news!
I wonder why MCZ haven't announced it already
I'm guessing public testing..root update..
Shame it's not kitkat tho:crying: but still great to get ouya everywhere and 4k display option :highfive:
I see some changes:
- HDMI 4K2K option.
- Better compatibility in Google Play without root.
- Ouya store. But It didn´t work yesterday.

I'm not really sure about how the android updates work -- especially in regards to each individual micro-console -- but if the versions you get are more or less the same as on the Shield, I think I'd count myself lucky that you haven't been updated to KitKat yet. On the Shield, many of the emulators seem to have a permanent slight stutter now, whereas before on Jelly bean, they apparently ran very smooth (this is Hearsay from around the forums, as I just got my Shield about a week ago. I can attest that quite a few of the emus stutter though.) As someone who mainly uses these consoles for emulation purposes, it's quite a let down, and I've even thought of switching my Shield out for a Mojo because of it (that's not the only reason, but a major one.) Having Ouya Everywhere available is another reason I'd like to switch; not sure Nvidia will ever get one board with it.

incompatible list through the roof
Has anyone else noticed since this latest update the incompatible list of games has gone through the roof. Literally only about 20% of what I used to have on the mojo will reinstall, the rest just have the your devise is incompatible message. I've tried deleting my data files and clearing the catch to see if it helped out but nothing.
Once step forwards two steps back. Sigh
Edit: i was able to force Blitz brigade to install, accessing my google account via a desktop and selecting blitz brigade to install to mojo (u have to make sure your using wifi not using the ethernet on the mojo) this auto started the install on the mojo. This was one of the games which used to be compatible but is now showing as incompatible on my mojo.
This trick didnt work for nova 3 or modern combat 5 so appears to be rather hit and miss
Off topic but if you havent got MC5 yet get it jumped on bounds since mc4, the control system has improved dramatically from all the other mc games and it wasnt particularly bad on them to begin with. Not played it online yet but the solo mode has been pretty epic, works really well with the c.t.r.l.r and the sixaxis pads the apk has them both mapped to work straight out the box.

The PS3 controller can be used on most any other rooted android device if you use the Sixaxis Controller app from the Play store. This does require root, however, so we'll have to wait for root before verifying that the PS3 controller will indeed work on the NP. I am near certain it will since it works great on the Nexus 7 and 10.
Once we have root, we can verify support with this checker app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscompatibilitychecker
If it says yes, you'd purchase and install this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller&hl=en
I doubt there'd be a leanback interface for the app before root comes, but it'd most likely work as is.
The Sixaxis Controller app for Android doesn't seem to work with Android 5.0 anymore.
I tried it with my Nexus 7 (2012) running rooted stock 5.0, using SuperSU 2.23, and it errors out.
Looks like it's gonna have to be updated for Lollipop, so it might be a no-go for the Nexus Player for a while.
The sixaxis controller app just got updated to support lollipop, so I'm gonna try it tonight and I'll report back.

To clarify, does the DS4 pair with the NP out of the box, or does it require root and an app? As dumb as this question sounds, my understanding is that the DS4 pairs with Bluetooth enabled PCs much more easily than the DS3 did, so I'm wondering if Android treats it any differently.

Truth be told I didn't even try it straight to the NP I used sixaxis right away. It works great. The new sixaxis app sometimes finds my DS3 as a fake controller other times it works fine but the DS4 always pops in fine. the touchpad is tweaky at best so i tend not to use it but this will be extremely handy once it is fixed properly.
Just tried it straight Bluetooth. The NP sees it as a Bluetooth controller but fails at pairing it. Tried multiple times but the NP just hangs. I really wish the Bluetooth stack in Android would finally support these devices (DS4, wiimotes, etc) properly...

I'm not sure that's a failing of Android. It's Nintendo/Sony using proprietary software with their hardware. Windows won't recognize them 100% without 3rd party software as well, as far as I remember.

While this is correct, it doesn't change the fact that Nintendo and Sony use proprietary software with their hardware, thus negating whatever bluetooth stack is being used.
That said, prior to Android 4.3, the Bluetooth stack used on your Android device was up to the OEM, and it differed from device to device. With Android 4.3, Google told OEMs which BT stack to use. This is to help with compatibility and consistency.
I read in another thread that you cannot have both sixaxis (for PS3 / PS4 controller etc) and the remote working at the same time. Wonder if anything can be done about that?

The wii remote doesn't use "proprietary software" that negates the bluetooth stack. it connects to pc bluetooth stacks fine. in fact android can detect the wii remote it just won't pair with it. cyanogen had actually included support for wii remotes in CM11 as long as your kernel supports wiimotes (most kernels just a downported driver).
This article http://lwn.net/Articles/597293/
has some interesting info on the bluetooth stack change.

I am able to pair my DS4 with with my Droid Turbo running 4.4.4 w/ no 3rd party software. Although it could be possible that Motorola modified the BT stack to allow this? It also paired w/ my old OPO and N5 both running CM11s. It would not pair w/ the N5 running vanilla KK. It doesn't seem like it's too hard to include whatever it is to make the DS4 compatible with android but for some reason Google doesn't include it out of the box. My DS4 also pairs w/ my MS Surface 2 Pro on Windows 8.1 with no special drivers or software.

How did you get the Nexus 7 to pair your PS3 controller with the Nexus Player? Could you let us know how you pulled it off?
I've side-loaded the Sixaxis controller app onto my nexus player and can't get it to connect. It did once, but crashed instantly and deleted my NP remote from the 'remote & accessories' menu lol. Causing me to resort to a factory reset to get it back.
I can pair the controller with the N7, no problem, NP just doesn't want to work. Any guidance would be appreciated
I think you may have been able to use a phone/tablet with the android tv remote app to re-add the stock remote. Not sure but worth a try over a FR.

Open the Sixaxis app on the nexus player and start it, and it'll show the Mac address of the nexus player. If you open it on your nexus 7 and connect the controller with a USB OTG cable, and click pair inside the sixaxis app, it'll prompt you to enter the Mac address, and it'll have the nexus 7's Mac address by default. Change it to the Mac address displayed on the nexus player. Once that's done, disconnect it and click the PS button. It should connect to the nexus player instead. I got it to work well, but I had the same issue and my nexus player remote stopped working, so I haven't looked into it any further.
