Sixaxis Touch Emulation? - 7" Kindle Fire HD General

So, Ive managed to get sixaxis working. It was straightforward and easy. But even though the controller works as gamepad, Im not able to use the Touch Emulation for games with no Gamepad option... Does anyone else have this issue?

Jailuis,
First step is to make sure you are Rooted and install Google Play Store. If not follow our guides below.
Once you have Root and Amazon Market (Google Play Store), then you open Google Play Store,
search for Sixaxis Compatibility Checker then Open the software. Choose Start, it will the attempt to initialize Root, click
"Allow" when you see the Superuser request. Wait for the results, it should come back "Success
Your device appears to be supported. If anything is missing, it will advise how to solve the problem.
Next you go back to Google Play Store, search for Sixaxis Controller. Then
you will need to pay $1.99 for the software, next download, it will automatically install.
When you are done, choose "Open", at this point everything else will make sense, if not,
send a reply, we usually respond quickly.
Note: You can not 'hack' or 'bypass' the need for the controller software, it just will not work
correctly without the Controller Software.

It works jist fine, I mean, I can use it as a native android controller. What I cant do is use the touch emulation, and im wondering if anyone else is having that issue.
Thanks in advance!

Should work, did you create a new touch profile using the Sixaxis Controller app, Press Menu > Preferences > Touch Emulation ?
I have some customers using Sixaxis Controller Touch Emulation without issues. I know it requires a profile to be setup. Maybe
this step was missed or did you create a touch profile? If you did, were there any issues or is this where your problem
exists, in the setup of Touch Emulation Profile?

I was able to create a profile, and I did indeeed, but after selecting it, it wasnt working. I will try again later and will com back, thanks for the help

It should work. Keep me posted. If you just can not get it, reply with the steps
completed and I will forward to my Development Team.

It didn't work on my kindle neither. I created a very basic profile with just one button and i did several tries placin it in almost everywhere on the screen with no result. Don´t know why. I ve been using sixaxis on my phone for a year with no issues

jailuis,
I am sorry, we had a crazy day and I was out most of the afternoon. We called and left another
message at about 11am this morning. I also send another email. Some business closed this week,
so let's not worry until Monday. Send me a PM on Monday AM, anytime, just so I do not forget.
Mondays can be crazy, this is why I want you to send a reminder.

After 5 phone calls (left messages) and several emails, we gave up!
Did you see my new post? Did that help or is it still not functioning as designed? I am starting to wonder if Dancing Pixel Studios is out of business? Looks that way....................or they do not believe in supporting the end user.

Where's tilt function?
For me it's working fine without any lag. Anyone of you know how to use tilt? In my EVO 4G there's a Look-around button which allows you to tilt the satellite view.
There was another update today, but not sure of the changelog.
can someone extract and post here the apk please cause it seems its not available in greece ATM..
Thank you..
Don't work on my tablet
If you tell me where it is, I'll do my first Android extraction for you.
Tilt works when you slide up and down with two fingers.
As for those complaining that it's not working, I'd suggest you uninstall it first and then download it from the Market again.
Don't run it yet but reboot your tablet and then turn on GPS and make sure Google Maps is working(detects your location). Now run Google Earth. It should work now.
My experience is with the US A500 and so don't know if this method will work elsewhere.
yeah it still doesnt work at all with the same stupid message

I have syncsms and it works fine but you need dropbox as well as the messages go through it. Another good one is textab. That one connects phone through bluetooth instead of using dropbox. Pretty handy.

I think textab is flipping awesome. Ridiculously easy to set up and use. There's a trial version in the market and the full version is available for $2

EVERY Gingerbread user NEEDS Gamekeyboard

In an effort to move attention from the ICS thing that people are getting annoyed about, I just want to draw attention to Gamekeyboard by LocNet (I know theres a thread about it on Themes and Apps but im not certain how many people venture there).
Its the most amazing thing Ive ever used on the Play. For those of you that dont know about it, it allows you to optimize any game for the Play controls. Take X-Men Arcade for example, or the first 3 Zenonia games. It acts as its own seperate keyboard however so you need to dedicate a hardware button to switch between the gamekeyboard and its own in-built texting keyboard (not as intrusive as it sounds)
Accelerometer games can be changed to work with the D-pad as well So any racing game that isnt Play optimized will now work with the gamepad.
Best of all, its cheap...VERY cheap
I know I cant get people to part with their money but any Play gamer worth their weight in salt NEEDS this.
If anyone who uses this has some good configuration files for certain games, feel free to upload them (.gkp file can be renamed for ease of use...like xmenarcade.gkp)
probably gonna have to dropbox them though
There are a couple of threads trying to get people away from ICS. Obviously no one cares about these threads. They want ICS. This doesn't effect anything.

This is so not cool! I previously emailed the author about Gamekeyboard not working in the other Dos Emulator, and he was adamant that the problem was in the other dos emulator and not his app. Very sneaky behavior if you ask me.
I have a problem with GameKeyboard 2.1.1... I waited for this kind of app to android for a long time, and now i am really close.... But the thing is... I can use the directional pad OK in PES 2012, but I can´t make work the buttons A, B, X and Y. I Tried Button Mappings but it doesn´t have any effect. Could someone tell me why ... has a solution or maybe a tutorial to indicate me....
Sorry for my poor english.
Thanks for the atention.

[Q] Gaming on nexus 7 with joystick(gamepad)

ive seen many vids playing games on nexus 7 with ps3 or 360 controller...
but when i tried to play with a normal gamepad(non branded controller) only navigation was possible for me..
why??
should i use any app??
or is it possible only with those 2 controllers!!!
rooted and im on cm10.1...
that is because of lacking keylayout files .
connect your controler to your pc ,see what the vid and pid is.and make you own keylayout file named like " Vendor_046d_Product_c294.kl",the *.kl file contains key value pairs .

Using the search button avoids sarcasm. :good:
Or use USB/BT joystick centre + Joystick server.
I found this very easy to use once i'd got my head around what it actually did, watch a YouTube video tutorial if you're not sure about anything.
Got it working with Battle Bears and Critical missions so far.

[Q][APP] PS3 Sixaxis Controller - Touch Emulation

Update: fixed with latest update.
Anyone that has an S4 and uses the sixaxis controller app; have you managed to get touch profiles working?
Games that natively support game pads work fine, though those which require manual touch profiles do not (for me at least).

Have been trying to get touch profiles to work on the S4 for quite some time until I realized it wasn't just me.
Really hope this can be fixed with a Sixaxis app update. Are there any other alternatives for now? I'm guessing not.
turns out the sixaxis app developer has being working on a fix... he sent me a new .apk to test and it works perfectly! Hopefully he'll update it to the play store soon.

Yes. I do that and it works, but only works for some games. I would like to map out the buttons on unsupported games. So far I need root for to do that because the apps available are meant for phones that do not have PS3 compatibility by default.

Hi,
I'm using my new S4 and I cant get the touch profiles to work
I tested on Dead Trigger, follow the instructions carefully, but they don't work.
Have the developers made the fix already?
Nevermind: I figured out that I was using an old version of the app
