I've just bought myself a Meizu M2 Note and one of the things I was looking for before buying it was that it has USB Host so that I can connect my PS3 controller to it. But it seems that Flyme OS doesn't have firmware support for it. I tried using Sixaxis Enabler app but it does not work.
I could connect it over bluetooth using Sixaxis Controller app but that only gives me an option to map keys, games that recognise controllers won't recognise it.
Is there any way I can get these drivers or install custom roms or something else?

for those of you having trouble with getting your six axis controller working go to this link http://www.dancingpixelstudios.com/sixaxiscontroller/instructions.html download the six axis pair tool for your operating system you will also find instructions there and go to the android market and download the six axis controller app here https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sixaxiscontroller&feature=more_from_developer then run the app on your nexus 7 you bluetooth master code will be down in the bottom left then plug your controller to your pc run the six axis pair tool it will come up put the code from your nexus in copy it exactly how it is on your nexus then change the master code then unhook your controller go to your nexus hit start on the app you should be paired now. now click setting in the top right and click preferences then gamepad settings and then enable gamepad. you should be good after that.
sorry if this seems cluttered im at work and typed this out as fast as possible.
hope this helps some of you.
If I am not mistaken, is root required?
That method for pairing with Sixaxis is not required, can all be done on the tablet itself with a USB OTG cable.
Root is required however.

Well. Poop
yes root is required and you can use usb otg or do it through your pc if you dont have a usb otg.
i keep getting no controller found after going through all the steps.
Simultaneously connect to a bluetooth headset?
I got to pair my N7 and PS3 controller thru Sixaxis just fine. But it prevents me to simultaneously connect to a bluetooth headset. So I have to disconnect my bluetooth headset and connect my PS3 controller. Does anyone know which bluetooth headset would work simultaneously with the PS3 controller?
I can not get mine to pair. Keeps saying there is no controller found on the n7. I installed both version as stated on the website.
I changed the address from the n7 and put that on the program. Not really sure what is wrong
Got it working, just had to unplug the ps3 controller then start it up.

Does anyone know of a way to remap Sixaxis controller? In GTA3, right analog stick is mapped to some strange "freeview" and I would like to use it for camera pan.
I'm running stock 4.2.1 (not rooted and I would like to stay that way if possible), controller is connected via USB OTG cable. I'm aware of Sixaxis app but it requires root and as far as I understand it works over bluetooth only..
Thanx!

It does require root for the Sixaxis Controller app. However, if you use it and BT the controller, it is an identical control mapping to a PS2 controller. Just like playing it on the console. Works the same in Vice City as well.

I suppose you're talking about the Sixaxis app game settings which you can download on thread here on XDA (because using the out of the box stock ROM and USB OTG connection, mapping it's nothing like on PS )
I wanted to know if there is a way to do something like that when Sixaxis is connected via USB and preferably without going through the root procedure. Guess not

Actually no, I'm talking about the Sixaxis Controller app in the Play store.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller&hl=en
If you use this, and root/BT the controller to the phone, you don't need "app game settings" from that other thread for GTA3 and VC to work just like on a console.
Aside from the hassle of rooting, I don't see a reason not to. You provide root access to apps anyway.
PS3 ones require a supported adapter, as well as wii motes, most made for android tablets require drivers that microsoft can't find.
Has anyone been successful in finding a bluetooth game controller that works with any adapter and has drivers readily available.
Works with what device?
I am yet to find a bluetooth radio which will not pair with a wiimote or PS3 controller.
If you're talking about windows 8 rather than RT, you shouldn't have any problems using a regular bluetooth gamepad. IIRC a wiimote doesn't function as a regular gamepad as such, but you can use other software like Girder to make it work that way. If compatibility with games that expect to see an Xbox 360 controller is your problem, search for "x360ce vibmod", that works great for me with my generic bluetooth gamepad.
Hi all, i have just installed the mod for OTG, it work great and i can mount any usb storage =) But now i want to use the original XBOX360 gamepade, the same i use for PC, on my nexus 4. If i plug it in the OTG cable the light in the middle of the gamepad start blinking but nothing happen, it doesn't work =( What i should do?
Is it a wired or wireless controller?
I believe goog added native support for the wired one around HC 3.1/3.2,
but they never added support for wireless ones.
He said its the wired one.
I have no idea if it works. But maybe you can find something in settings/language&input ?
I never got my 360 controllers to work even under Windows so I wouldn't expect too much, haha.

Unless you're running win95, all you need are the drivers.
There's downloadable drivers for xp/vista/7, it's pre-included in 8/8.1.
It might be pre-included in 7, but it's been years since i used it.
Android does include the key mapping profiles for 360 controllers, there shouldnt be any additional settings options for it. But i've never had a wired controller to test it with.
It should automagically map it so that it follows the android default mapping for controllers.

Nexus 4 does not support USB OTG without a kernel hack and external power for the device. Also, the drivers are preinstalled on windows 8, previous OSs need an installer

I dunno how I missed that. It should work then... The controller might need its own power though
Yea I know apparently they are supposed to work under windows. Never did for me though (xp, 7) no matter which drivers and methods I used.

So I got the ps4 remote play app working on my Shield but I haven't been able to get any controller working inside the ps4 remote play app.
Which is kind of weird, because all controllers I tried are working fine outside in all other apps.
One thing I haven't tried is to pair a ds4 controller with this sixaxis controller app on play store.
I head with this app it works. Can anyone confirm this?
In the ps4 remote play app there are these on screen touch buttons for use with a smartphone (I can also use them via the touchpad on my logitech keyboard).
I also read that the sixaxis controller app takes the ds4 controller input and emulates these touch button presses.
My goal would be to use other controllers than a ds4 controller, preferably a xbox one controller.
I guess if an app/module could grab controller input and emulate these touch presses in ps4 remote play app it could work....
Unfortunatly I'm no dev god that could code sth. :crying:
Maybe someone has an idea here?
What version of the app are you using and where did you download it.. can't even get that done for myself

Version 2.6 from apkmirror, newer ones don't work.
It won't work without root.
There's 2 things that are important to make it work:
In Magisk manager you have to install the Sony framework v1 module by Seyaru which makes it even possible to install the remote play app.
This also adds some Dualshock 3/4 system app.
Once installed, do not start the ps4 remote play app yet.
In Magisk manager settings activate Magisk hide. Go to Magisk hide and hide both the ps4 remote play app and the Dualshock.. app.
Now start ps4 remote play app and it should work.
Oh, if you try it on smartphone I should add: The ps4 remote play app will automatically update itself to latest version (which doesn't work) even if you deactivate auto update in playstore!
There's a modified version of ps4 remote play app v2.6 somewhere that doesn't auto update itself. But yeah.. on the Shield we don't have that problem since we sideload the app
So Shield tv needs root? I'm wanting to set this up so my mother can play her PS4, in her room, in our living room. She has no plus access to just transfer her save to the livingroom's PS4 Pro unit and doesn't want to have to manually transfer it back and forth.

Yes..or magisk and xposed modules. To be precise.
It's a shame that Sony doesn't enable ps4 remote play app for all android devices but just for their xperia devices.
Since October the PS4 remote play app is comptable with all Andoid devices including the Shield. I installed it on it but my Dualshock 4 controller seems to not we working. After launching the app, I have an error message : Dualshock is not compatible...
I also tried with the official Shield controller (v2 from 2017) and no error message, but it doesn't work better...
What's the problem ?
