Can someone explain why a driver hasn't been made for WM6 Being able to pair an xbox 360 controller and use it like a gamepad for your pocket pc?
Can this be done?
Has it allready been done?
the Xbox360 gamepad uses a proprietary form of Wifi to connect to the Xbox 360, not Bluetooth like the PS3. Hope that answers your question.
well it may be possible but microsoft will never share sensitive information about their controllers
in theory it may be possible to create adhoc connection to your device but it may require new wlan drover for your device and aditional software to map the controls for the gamepad...
the similar thing goes for the PS3 controller
It would be incredibly difficult since the controller switches frequencies randomly to avoid interference from other 900MHZ devices.
since no xbox.......why no ps3 controller driver??
j/k
i've been playing around with a ps3 controller that i got......drivers for using the controller while is plugged into a pc are all over the internet........but i just found this a few days ago, drivers for using bluetooth.

scroll down to the post by 89ron. tried it......works for me, but the down side is you have to switch from your bluetooth stack to this freebt stack
Wait...wait..
I had the gamepad on and it showed on my Bluetooth as "Player 1" and the XBOX 360 was not on.. What does this tell you?
que? What do you mean?
I’m running a nexus7 google tablet and a brand new dualshock3 sony controller. i followed all of the instructions for the sixaxis app. I got it to work, but if I turn bluetooth off and on the controller looses connection to the tablet and then needs to be manually paired again in order to regain a bluetooth connection. Is there any way to make it so it automatically reconnects once I turn bluetooth on again?
having to hook the controller up again every time I want to play a game and then having to pair it is going to be a drag.
I have tried through bluetooth and the phone is unable to pair with the controller. Is there any other way to work around this issue and connect wirelessly? Also will a USB-C OTG cable work with the 6P?
I haven't received my 6P yet but on my 6 I use sixaxis controller with my ps3 controller. Not sure if ps4 controller does native Bluetooth gamepad or you need to use the app.
Use this to set the parent address to your nexus 6ps bluetooth mac address (you can find it in settings->about)

Then connect it as a standard bluetooth device.
Unfortuantely after 30sec it starts lagging terribly
So I successfully got the ps4 controller to pair over Bluetooth without adjusting any settings. It wouldn't work at first but it added it as a device. Then when I tried again the next day after restarting the phone it connected.
you have to hold PS button and share at the same time until you get the flashing white light.
However, the triggers mapped weird for games and there is lag.
Does anyone know of a way to fix the mapping without root?
I also successfully used the OTG cable with the ps3 controller. This worked a lot better this works a lot faster then the Bluetooth ps4. And the mapping is correct.
Haven't tried usb to ps4 yet. UPDATE
So ps4 over otg also has some mapping issues. Tested this out in minecraft settings since you can customize controller mapping. For some reason on ps4 some buttons didn't seem to me recognized, everything was weird, like r2 was labeled as a button and triangle wasn't showing anything.
Tried to connect ps3 via Bluetooth but couldn't get it to work
Has anyone successfully paired a PS3 or other bluetooth controller to this phone? I've tried the Sixaxis tool, but the controller keeps disconnecting. If you got it working, what ROM are you running? and how?
Thanks!
I paired a Dualshock 4 a few months ago. It made the phone sluggish, no clue why.

Omnirom. Paired multiple controllers at once, never had an issue. Both sixaxis (ps3) and ps4 controllers.

Did you just pair with normal Bluetooth? Or using another utility? Did you connect a cable to the phone from the controller for the initial pairing?

Sixaxis controller app. Yes, you have to write the bt master mac adress via otg/usb cable, but after that first connection, all goes via bt. Now that I think about, I had 4 controllers at once to play mario kart 64 via emulator. Worked flawlessly

With a DS4 you can just enter pairing mode via share button + PS symbol. It'll show as a BT device, then sync with phone. The Joycons can work in a similar manner I believe.

Thats correct, its just that I mostly use sixaxis joysticks from my ps3, and my phone is rooted, so I bind them all via the usb cable.

Hi,
Is anyone successfully using a PS4 controller to play games on his/her Huawei P9 Lite?
I can successfully pair the two via bluetooth, by simultaneously pressing and holding the Share and the PS button on a PS4 controller and then establishing the connection in the bluetooth settings. However, even though they are paired, the phone doesn't register any input from the controller. I wonder if this is a bug, or the phone simply lacks this feature. I also wonder whether rooting the phone could change this.
