3.1 and the PS3 Controller

So I've been toying around with my PS3 controller, and Transformer (plus dock) all morning and for the life of me I can't get it working correctly.
From every article I've read you should just be able to plug it in and go, but whatever was working for those guys clearly is missing from my own Transformer.
Anybody else been able to get it working?
I'm also wondering if my dock didn't update along with the 3.1 like it was supposed to. I remember updating the tablet, but there was never a separate dock update like there has been previously.
I'm running version EP101-0209
Is that the newest version?
I noticed that it only works with certain games natively or you would need to map the buttons through the game's OPTION (if available). The only native supported game I had found is called "Cordy" which you can download and play from market for free. It would also be a good start to test your controller though.
Anyway when they claimed that it supports PS3 controller, I think they meant via the USB port and not via BT. The only BT supported controller is the Wiimote but you need to download a new IME to run with it. Hope this helps, cheers !
PS3 controller with USB cable works perfectly in the dock. I tested it with SNESoid and cordy.
99% of market games will not work with any controller, they have to actually be coded for it to work. if the game has a key binding setting (like the emulators) then your good cause you can bind it and set everything up.
I also couldn't get it to work then realized you have to actually turn on the controller (long press PS logo) for it to work. doh

I should have mentioned I've been trying to get it working with SNESoid to no avail. It's not that it's entirely non-functioning rather it just doesn't read the buttons correctly.
Despite remapping it's very janky and, for example, the start button always goes to the home screen and triangle force closes the game.
Was there anything special you did to get it working with SNESoid or was it just plug in and go?
I know I've been having similar issues with PS3 controllers on 3.1. The controller would be detected, would get all the keys mapped, but I haven't found any emulator/game that reads any input from the right joystick. All other buttons and the right one work perfectly. Tried it on two Sony Six Axis controllers and a wireless logitech with a usb dongle. All 3 do the same things

don't think i did anything special. took a bit for it to finally recognise it but then i bound everything and i had no issues. no issues with start or triangle.
Been playing on mine with the PS3 controller and some roms. pretty damn awesome!
I connected my ps3 controller and its not working with anything. Not cordy or any of my emulators key remap working atall. What am I doing wrong here. All I get is 4 lights blinking

[Q]Anyone having trouble with 360 controllers?

I have three Xbox 360 controllers, and only one of them works right with the Nexus player. I have a wireless controller with the wireless receiver and two wired controllers. One of the wired controllers works right, but the other one and the wireless controller both don't map the right analog stick correctly. I think the shoulder buttons are outputting right analog stick events, but it's kind of hard to tell. Anyone encounter this and have a workaround?

I haven't been able to get my wireless 360 pad to work at all.
Are you using the usb receiver dongle? Xbox controllers aren't bluetooth, so you need one to do anything with it.
I just got an Xbox receiver dongle (I'm not sure if its the official one (probably not)). It connected right away but it definitely does not work for mc4.
•The left stick works for movement and pressing it to run.
• the right analog is hit and miss... The camera keeps drifting upwards and the control seems all janky. And the button doesn't work.
•The triggers dont register at all
•the bumpers both register properly to switch weapons.
• A & B seem to work properly
• start and select both bring up the menu
• I think X & Y are reversed.
I have a Titan one http://www.consoletuner.com/products/titan-one/ and I am going to try and remap the buttons... But it may be a waste of time if I can't get the right stick working.
Good news! The titan one makes the wireless controller work perfectly. It can even remap the buttons.... Now I'm gonna try it with a wiimote.

Is there a bluetooth controller that allows you to remap it?

I've tried the Nyko playpad pro and it's hot garbage. I've ordered 2 of them and they've both arrived dead. won't power on or anything. I've read a lot of reviews on it and see that you have to be lucky to get a working on. I'm looking for a bluetooth controller that works and a way to reconfigure the buttons on it. Is this possible? I want to use the controller for my Shield Tablet as well as the Shield TV. Someone thought it was a good idea to not allow you to remap sprint and crouch on DOOM 3, which is super infuriating.
If you are willing to root, there are a lot of options. Honestly, the sixaxis controller app and any Playstation controller are about the best configuration you can find. You can map the controller buttons to literally any key press that android can register, including touching the screen. It also let's you emulate a mouse with either joystick and toggle it on and off. Something I wish was built into the Shield controller.
But, if root isn't an option, you could try the MOGA controller with this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ca.sandstorm.mogaime.gui&hl=en.
I hear MOGA makes decent controllers, but I have never used one personally.

Xbox one controller with z5

Hi guys, spent a few days trying to get my Xbox one controller working with the z5 for emulators etc and managed to sort it. You will need an otg cable, Xbox one controller and https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.free.usbjoyfree .
First plug the Xbox one controller into the phone via the otg cable and turn it on.(turn off Xbox one at wall before) then open the slide down settings and select "detect usb device". now open usbjoyfree and press the search button on the left and grant it permission to connect to the controller. Next select the Xbox one controller profile and check the button work when pressed. Now click on IME in the top left of usbjoyfree and select usbjoyfree as the input device.
Your controller should now work with epsxe and n64 emulators etc.
Make sure you turn IME back to the keyboard when not playing games as the keyboard won't show up
Hope it helped a few people. The app should also work with xbox360 and other controllers too.
Peace, Davey P
Also you don't need root, only need root for touchscreen emulation ie, mapping controller to games that have on screen controlls that are normally not supported by controllers. But fine for emus

Shield controller not detected as gamepad on emulators.

Hey guys.
There is something that has bothered me on the shield tv. On any emulator I use the B Button always acts as Back button even when I map it to something else.
I think there is something interfering with the key layout that makes the shield tv controller not be detected as a gamepad when opening an emulator but still as a controller with the back and accept button on A and B.
You can test this with the mupen n64 emulator.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I haven't really played with emulators, but does the controller work any better if you plug it in?
