The MOJO current isn't BT4 and the dongle isn't BT4 either.
I'm not 100% if the retail CTRLR (I have one too) is BT4, but works fine on BT2.
Turn on bluetooth on the MOJO, it will work

edit: I got the controller connected you need to be on my android 5.0 rom though. Hold the madcatz button until your device sees it and it should connect. Connected to my phone..... no need for the dongle anymore

Great work on the rom! Installed easily, and discovered my bluetooth keyboard right away, but the CTRLR doesn't appear as a bluetooth device {red and blue lights flashing}. I plug the dongle back in and it connects right away, but I would like to try usig it dongle-free.

You needed to hold back and start until it flashes pink that changes it from dongle to pairing mode. It's the same on the adt-1 that's how I figured it out.

You're a gentleman and a scholar; it worked. And I had even googled it.
The CTRLR has 'back' and 'start' buttons on either side of the central button that lights up when it is on. Press those two buttons until the central button turns on pink (or purple), That means it has forgotten its previous connection and can be paired again to another device.

Ensure the USB dongle is not plugged into anything, and that your device has bluetooth 4.0/LE, then try searching again.
If the USB is plugged in, itll usually try connecting to that first.

i've tried bit no luck D: anything el se i csn do solve this?
I going to try with a Galaxy note n7100 (i going to try to flash KitKat rom in that)
With the USB dongle unplugged, try pressing and holding the Start button for 5 seconds until the Home button flashes purple. This will clear pairing, then return to Discovery Mode with the Home button flashing Red/Blue. Then try connecting to your device.

When in GameSmart Mode (Left-most position), does it let you move around a highlight selection?
When trying Mouse Mode, ensure the Mode Switch is in the center position.
You can also check if Mouse Mode works at all by using a micro USB adapter and a wired USB mouse. Also, if the CTRLR is connecting fine, our RATM and MOUS9 (both also Bluetooth Smart) should also be able to connect to it directly.
Is it possible to pair the Nexus Player ASUS controller with any Android device? I mean is it a general Bluetooth controller one could use for gaming on a tablet, phone, like any other Bluetooth gamepads out there?

You should be able to over Bluetooth which is how it connects tot he NP. I known that emulators support controllers so why not give it a try? If you don't have the NP I'll try it and let you know
My controller successfully gets connected with my phone and my laptop. Just press the home and back button together for a few seconds to get it to pairing mode and the simply pair it via bluetooth.
I don't have a NP, it doesn't seem to be good enough to order (have a Chromecast), with the limited memory and stuff. But the Gamepad looks so cool, I thought why not get it for my Android games? Wanted to have a Bluetooth gamepad anyways for some time...

A normal windows laptop with Bluetooth
What edition of windows? I couldn't see available for pairing it on my MSI GT70 with Windows 8.1 64-bit. Other devices pair just fine.
I got it to pair on my laptop. But the buttons and pads aren't mapped correctly, e.g. it didn't work on Steam Big Picture or on any games. It's stuck going top-right. I assume they have the triggers mapped on the wrong axis. If anyone knows a way to remap the buttons, d-pad and sticks, I'd try it again. And it connected perfectly with my phone (Oneplus One.) I didn't test every button, wouldn't know how. Was able to remap some of them in MAME4Droid.
I paired the np remote with my nexus 6 and have an issue, when using it in Kodi, the select button ( the big center round one) does not do anything, any ideas?
I couldn't pair it with my G4, any tips?
Alright I finally found a way to use the dualshock 4 controller with my shield tablet k1 running Android 6.0.
The problem I faced was that when I wanted to pair the controller and tablet it became stuck on the "pairing with..." part.
And since the sixaxis controller app doesn't work on marshmallow I started trying somethings and searched for a solution online.
So maybe there are people that are facing this issue aswell This is how I got it working.
1. First download and install the Sixaxis Pair Tool from the dev's website :
Sixaxis Pair Tool
2. Connect the DS4 controller with a USB cable to the pc and start the Sixaxis Pair Tool you just installed.
3. In the box "Change Master" you want to type the Bluetooth MAC address of your tablet, you can look this up when you go to Settings > About tablet > Status > Bluetooth address
* if you don't see a mac address make sure Bluetooth is turned on.
4. After you filled in the Tablets MAC in the "Change Master" box you hit apply and double check if the new "Current Master" MAC address is the same as the MAC address from the tablet.
Now that the DS4 knows for what MAC address to look for you want to install the following application on the tablet aswell.
* Look for the following app : Bluetooth Auto Connect
The reason we need this app is that for some reason the controllers input starts to lagg after about 30sec after pairing it with the tablet, the only solution I found was using this application.
5. So now that we have the bluetooth application installed aswell we can open the app.
*If the app asks you to turn on Bluetooth just hit OK.
6. Now scroll down to the bottom and tap on "Advanced Options" in here you want to change the following settings:
Rety Count = 1
Rety After(Sec) = 1
Device Timeout(Sec) = 5
Continuous Connect = 2
7. When you changed these settings you can turn on the DS4 controller by pressing on the PS button.
8. Now press on the "Connect Now" button at the bottom of the Advanced Options page.
After 2-3 seconds you will be asked if it is oke to pair the controller with the tablet, select yes and tadaaaaa you have a working DS4 controller on the Nvidia Shield Tablet
So for everything works for me, even the button mapper that can be accessed by holding the Options button on the DS4.
I hope this helps a couple of people !
*If you want to use the DS4 with the PS4 again you need to plug it in the PS4 with the usb cable to pair it again.
Going to try this right now!
EDIT: It works great, able to play donkey kong 64 again hah.
Question
When doing this, if I have a MacBook as my pc but a shield tab, when going to dl the sixaxis pair tool from the dev website do I dl the one for Mac OS X or the one for Windows? Also if you go to the page there's two links for the Windows now which of those two did you use?
Hi great guide
I don't suppose you know if this would work with the Xbox one controller or maybe the Xbox 360 controller ?

Hi !
If you use a MacBook that means you need to download the Mac OS X version they provide, I don't have a Mac so I have no idea how that works. I did a quick google and found this orikad.com/sixpair_instructions.html I suggest you follow that and it should work.
Let me know when you have it working !

I'm afraid this won't work for the xbox controllers since they don't use bluetooth, however you can get a 360 controller working if you connect a usb adapter for windows with a usb otg cable.
There is at the moment no way to use a Xbox One controller with any device other can Windows 7,8(.1) and 10 since the wireless adapter only supports these versions of windows.
Great guide Dusty!! I am expecting my nvidia k1 next week and i try to collect info about anything!
One question i have...if you have root, the way to pair the tablet and the ds4 is easier??

If you root the tablet you can use this app play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller and connect the DS4 to your tablet with a usb otg cable so you can pair it on your tablet, this is done with 1 press so you don't have to look up the MAC adress etc. However, the app is having problems with newer versions of android 5.1.1+ so I decided to skip the rooting for now and go with this method
Awesome. Thank you.
Thank you so much! Love you for this

When you say I USB adapter are you on about the wireless adapter ?
I do have a old wired Xbox 360 controller would that just work through the otg cable

If so verify that the master MAC address is the same as your bluetooths MAC.

I dont know if i should upgrade to MM or not.. Multirom is the only thing that holds me
I was wondering if anyone has tried hooking up a ps4 controller or any other third party? I hooked an otg cable from my ps4 to the phone and the ps4 light stays blue when it should be orange? I tried connecting via Bluetooth and it sees the device and pairs wirelessly naming it wireless controller in the device list but the buttons don't register in emulators or supported android apps that used to work with my note 5? I used to use my controller all the time but now with my new s7 edge I can't get a controller to work? Can anyone else try for me and see if you have different luck? I tried the otg to an x1 controller and it rebooted my phone....
I got the same results with the Xbox One controller. Wireless adapter still doesn't work (expected), but when plugging the controller in via USB my phone would boot-loop until I unplugged the controller. And even then it still rebooted two more times before working again. I haven't been home to try my Wii or Xbox 360 controllers yet. I thought I would just grab the XBone controller and use it with the Gear VR today on my lunch break. What a disappointment.
I tried hooking ps4 controller and had same issue. I found it might be related to faulty not tested drivers in marshmallow system. Yeah I'm disappointed too.
Moga works.
My Xbox 360 wired controller works, PS3 doesn't (wired or bluetooth).
Same problem here. PS3 controller wired with OTG, just has the 4 charge leds blinking, nothing happens.
XBOX 360 controller, home button keeps blinking and also nothing happening other then that.
Same here ps4 controller not working, causing phone to crash and boot loop when connected. I have a wired Logitech pc x input controller that I tried and it seems to work just fine. But this totally sux as I love my ds4 and was hoping to use it with the gear vr. The Logitech is no where as near as comfortable as the ds4. At least I have something that works for now. Hopefully there will be a fix.
i have tried xbox 360 wired, xbox 360 wireless receiver and a xbox one controller, none work in the s7 but the xbox 360 ones work in my other phones...
Has anybody found a way to use an Xbox one controller with their s7 devices?

Xbox one controller not working at all
I was using my xbone controller with my s7 edge and it rebooted my phone after that it doesn't read my phone anymore and it won't work with me Xbox one, wireless or wired. When I push the guide button it won't turn on and when I plug it into the Xbox it just blinks twice and dies. Don't use your Xbox one controller on your s7!! If anyone has any suggestions feel free to let me know lol

You mean to sync it to the Xbox? It does but it only blinks twice and then dies. I left it charging over night and that's all it would do. I left it charging again and I'm about to try it with my Xbox but yeah so far no luck lol
you guys know you need a custom kernel with xpadder support enabled and the xbox fixes for the linux kernel version. So if you want it build the support in the kernel and it will work.

no, the DS button I'm speaking of, is one that let u make a "factory reset" of the controller, making it like new (speaking of paired devices) so u can pair again as it was new, that ususally solves when the PS doesnt recognize it properly, but I'd never had an xbox so I don't know if that exists on their controllers
Hope they get a fix for this. Got an xbox one controller to play both on PC and my s7 edge. But.. fook this

There is a Firmware Update for the C.T.R.L.R Controller
[download section of the mad catz home page] (i'm not yet allowed to post urls)
My C.T.R.L.R was included when I bought my Mad Catz Mojo.
I found that Guide:
url (google for "Product Update Guide: XInput")
And a page about the Update:
url (google for "C.T.R.L.R with XInput Update – Ready to Game on PC")
(one guy in the comments says that the update is not possible for the C.T.R.L.R Controller that was packaged with the mojo - is that possible? - isn't it the same controller that is selled separately?
However, when I tried to install the new Firmware, I got the instruction from the software to push the "next title" + "last title" buttons for 3 seconds to bring the C.T.R.L.R Controller in a "firmware update mode" in order to continue the update procedure. Nothing happened when I pushed the buttons.
I have also installed the Driver and Software from the download page, but I was not able to perform the firmware update.
Was anyone able to install the firmware update?
There are many optimisations and fixes included in the update, therefore, it seems to be worthy.
I opened a ticket about this very problem with Mad Catz. Their responce was that we can't do a firmware update with the C.T.R.L.R. Controller that came with the Mojo. What a rip off!
This is actually crazy... i bought the mojo for £49.99 from amazon a few days ago... power it on.. controller wont connect so cant get past the setup language screen... make it all worse its set to goto sleep after 2mins so have to keep getting up to reinsert the power.... purchase a cheap usb keyboard to set it up... turn on bluetooth.. spend literally a day on google and on here trying to work out how to connect the controller, still wont connect... wont connect to my s4 neither... only my laptop. :/ i too found the firmware update and got stuck on the same place as you guys..... no wonder this has dropped so much in price.... im about to try tech support, spend one more day on it, then il be shipping it back to amazon...

That sucks, not even passing the language screen. But don't give up hope; try these few tricks:
1) Get new AAA batteries (I prefer using recheargeable ones)
2) if that doesn't work, remove the batteries and use your S4 charging cable to power the CTLR. There is tiny USB input behind the batteries.
3) swap the usb dongle bluetooth receiver between the 3.0 and 2.0 input slots on the MOJO
4) If the CTRLR just won't connect, try using either a USB mouse (either cable or wireless). I've been using a wireless mouse for the past couple months since I don't play games that much, it works flawlessly).
**Make sure you're not far from the MOJO when you're attempting these solutions.
If it works, make sure you update the MOJO firmware (205 something). Most issues with the stock CTRLR will stop after that. Also, if you continue using that CTRLR you can use the 2.0 slot and use the 3.0 input for your external HDD for example.
If none of these works, something might be wrong with your CTRLR. You could ask for a return or exhange.
But I will tell you, once this baby works, you will fall in love with it.
But honesty, I didn't really need the CTLR to be updated. For my purposes, it works just fine. Since I mostly watch videos on the MoJo, a simple wireless mouse does all the job for me.

3) swap the usb dongle bluetooth receiver between the 3.0 and 2.0 input slots on the MOJO
4) If the CTRLR just won't connect, try using either a USB mouse (either cable or wireless). I've been using a wireless mouse for the past couple months since I don't play games that much, it works flawlessly).
**Make sure you're not far from the MOJO when you're attempting these solutions.
If it works, make sure you update the MOJO firmware (205 something). Most issues with the stock CTRLR will stop after that. Also, if you continue using that CTRLR you can use the 2.0 slot and use the 3.0 input for your external HDD for example.
If none of these works, something might be wrong with your CTRLR. You could ask for a return or exhange.
But I will tell you, once this baby works, you will fall in love with it.
But honesty, I didn't really need the CTLR to be updated. For my purposes, it works just fine. Since I mostly watch videos on the MoJo, a simple wireless mouse does all the job for me.

cheers for the reply.. i tried the suggestions and it just keeps flashing blue and red ... ive given up on the CTRLR... now have it setup with a rii wireless keyboard and an old firestick remote that i connected via bluetooth.... i wont be playing games anyway, just wanted it for streaming upstairs....
That means it's just not connecting. Sorry about that. For streaming purposes, you should be fine with your current setup though.
Perhaps Mad Catz can replace your CTRLR, did you inquire?

I opened a ticket about this very problem with Mad Catz. Their responce was that we can't do a firmware update with the C.T.R.L.R. Controller that came with the Mojo. What a rip off!

Thank you for that important information. So I'm not able to update the firmware. I think there should be a note on the homepage about that. Hours of lifetime are lost because that information is not provided on the homepage.:crying:

The CTRL, is the best part of the MOJO :good:
I use it a lot on other BT4 devices, my phone, PC and mojo.
Try connecting on other devices, it could be the dongle that has a problem.
If there is an update, it would be for the retail version, but not sure what it would do.

looks like it's just PC software
Bit of a shot in the dark here. I've got the retail version of the controller, updated firmware and though I've followed the calibration steps to a T - it's borked.
Triggers don't register at all, right stick is slowly panning up and left and there are random triggers of some of the hard buttons.
Has anyone successfully updated any version of this controller?
Edit:
Reflashed the fimrware and tried again. Working now. Not sure what went wrong, failed flash?

However, when I tried to install the new Firmware, I got the instruction from the software to push the "next title" + "last title" buttons for 3 seconds to bring the C.T.R.L.R Controller in a "firmware update mode" in order to continue the update procedure. Nothing happened when I pushed the buttons.

I had the same issue unitl I realized that I have another model number where I had to press the "<<" and ">>" buttons at the same time. After that, firmware update was working.
Ive tried the above and didnt work either has anyone ever got past this operation issue with the update. Ive connected the device with usb cable ok, I have a solid red light on the controller, presses both keys as instructions state and nothing progresses, the usb install was the last thing that actually worked.
Cant believe its so rubbish to get an update working - ridiculous
Cant find any profiles for this controller like MC 4, etc.
Any help on this device or is it dead in the water.

Hi did you guys figure out if there is anyway to update the controller that comes with MOJO model 32263? I cannot get it working with usb on my computer.
Mojo Pack-in C.T.R.LR. Update
Hi All,
Looking for same info on the pack-in controller that came with the Mojo. I put my Mojo away, I bought a shield a few years back and never looked back. I would like to use the controller (C.T.R.LR.) that came with the Mojo but I can not get it to pair with anything outside of the original Mojo. Has anyone been able to get the update to work, I ran into the same issues as other here, pressing the << and >> does nothing and I can not update the firmware. Would like to use the controller with my cellphone but it will not pair. Thoughts?
Thanks!
