Hi has anyone found a working Bluetooth gamepad for the TAB?
I know that the Zeemote works (I have one), but its not quite the gaming experience that Im looking for, Im looking for a gamepad for playing genesis/snes/nes etc emultors and for that the one hand zeemote does not really work.
I was on the hunt for something like this too to play emu games. The only thing I could find was the MSI BGP100 which doesn't appear to exist any longer, nor would it work all that well (IMO) with the SGT since it was designed for phones back in the day.
Ive got the msi bgp100 and have the app of the market and donated for full version and it works perfectly with snesoid, nesoid, psxdroid and genoid.
They are hard to find nowadays though lol.

Wuh wuh what? When did the wiimotes all of the sudden started working! I'm gonna have to charge one up and find this out for myself.
What app did you install to get your wiimote working?
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
get the wiimote and the classic controller for wiimote to play like a bluetooth gamepad, also can be used to have two player one with the wiimote and the other one with the classic controller, both working

Which app did you install from the market if any to setup and pair the wiimote? I installed wiimotecontroller from the market but when i use the init function it never finds my wiimote. I also tried to pair it with using wireless settings and it finds my wiimote but always asks for a pass or pin? Just in case you were wondering, my bluetooth setting was on.

I have both wiimoteController and other one that is excellent and more easy to use than wiimoteController that is called RWiimote (was removed from the market don't know why)
I will test it and come back to post result and if successful I will post the .apk

Awesome. Looking forward to getting this to work for my emulators.
Edit: Found Rwiimote on the market and tried it out. Doesnt work for me. Tells me my device is not supported when i try to pair the controller.

As with the SGS the Wii remote does not work with the SGT with the original firmware. You can get the Wii Remote working on the SGS with Cyanogen CFW.
Is there a firmware build etc that would support the wiimote?
Is it just that Cyanogen has added a bluetooth profile that the SGS/T devices don't have? Do you know what that would be? It might be something as simple as modifying the bluez config files on the device. If I get a chance I'll mess with it tonight.

Tell us what you find! would be appriciated
I have thought of the next best thing: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.45604
Im thinking of ordering one of those and customizing it to only contain the buttons that are needed for gaming. Since the TAB does have bluetooth profiles for BT-keyboards and mice. (My DiNovo mini works perfectly, but its a little bit too expensive to rip to atoms)

I got a wiimote today, tellme what to do. And I will test it.
I'm not sure that this issue is due to anything more then the Tab being hard coded to require a PIN and not being able to skip it...
When I try using WiiController (demo) it stops trying to search immediately, and I don't have Root so the RWiimote fails as well
when I go into Bluetooth settings and search I can see the wii-mote, I can connect to it however it is prompting me for a PIN which the Wii-mote doesn't support. There is no way around this pin code request so my connection fails everytime
If the Bluetooth software is designed to not allow connections without a PIN then I don't see how it can work with any software unless its designed to bypass the PIN requirement?
or I may just be missing something
Sorry to bring this one back to life again, but did anyone get the a wiimote working with the tab successfully?
I'm having the same problem Dredly, it just asks for the pin and you can't continue.
Hi everyone. I'm looking for controller for Optimus 4X HD to play games like Shadowgun, Sonic 4 or GTA III (I never played this game) on my HD TV. To be honest, I'm fan of Xbox 360 controller, so maybe you know similar design controllers, which would work on mine 4X HD?
Not aware of any xbox looking bluetooth controllers but PhoneJoy might work for you, though it's a copy of a PS controller.
I think you can connect a wired xbox controller to your phone.

According to this at least the Tegra chipset should support usb controllers such as the Xbox 360 wired controller.
http://www.tegrazone.com/support/game-controller-support
However from what I can gather from this forum USB OTG is not supported on the 4x. I dont know if these 2 are connected or not so maybe you should ask someone who has more experience with this phone.
The Moga Gaming Controller looks pretty good. It's also compatible with quite a few Gameloft games. I'm very tempted to buy it but it doesn't seem to be available in the UK. I would have to order shipping from US.

But does it really work? I mean, the USB host of the O4X is locked or something, so one can't use USB Sticks or USB keyboards or mouses.....

Actually it works fine only with wireless bluetooth controller(like PS3) but not with wired or receiver based wireless controller(Like X-Box).
I have PS3 wireless dual shock3 controller - all I needed to do is to connect it via Bluetooth using any app(I used SixAxis) as soon as its connected you don't need to configure anything else for above list of tegra games since they support controller by default however for other games you'll also have to create on-screen touch profile so you can play
I enjoyed hours(~4-5hrs) of game play with controller specially when connected to my 50inch tv - phone gets hot but who cares if it runs game buttery smooth until battery drains off completely
But I still feel this mhl concept is downgrade technology it would have been much better with separate HDMI port and fully functional USB port so we can have more options for USB devices simultaneously with TV viewing.

Is it maybe possible to unlock the usb host by changing something in build.prop?

I don't think it can be possible because the USB port is not able to deliver enough power to the attached device, however I think it can be possible if we can deliver power from separate source.
In any case I wont be able to use TV-Out function and USB devices simultaneously since both uses same usb port.

It might work... On my old tablet, I simply connected a USB hub to it and then I could use my USB keyboard and mouse @ the same time... plus i wanted to watch a movie that I had on my USB stick, so I also connected it to the hub and the keyboard, the mouse and the USB stick were working... so if we could get the USB port working, this should work too...

Due to how 5-pin MHL works, you can only do either HDMI out or USB at any given time. You cannot ever do both simultaneously.
i bought this one.. unfortunately...
i recently bought a bluetooth ps3 compatible controller for 10€ on amazon (not allowed to post links, <10 posts)
search amazon-de for "DualShock Wireless Bluetooth Game Controller-Golden" by "generic"
well at least it says "bluetooth" in the description and on a sticker glued to the thing.
i havent been able to register a bluetooth signal from this, be it on the phone or on the pc with a usb bt dongle.
so i guess it in reality is a 2.4GHz Wireless pad (not bluetooth) or its just broken.
i wont send it back, because i pity the seller, he sent me this for 10€ from the USA.
i think that the production costs and delivery ate up the 10€, he probably put in the wrong price for his offer, so i let it be.
but i will test this on a real ps3 today and if its not working i put it into the trashcan and let you know.
still wasnt able to connect even a wiimote to my phone, but thats perhaps because the only wiimote i got here and that wasnt grabbed by my niece is a bit broken (doesnt sync anymore when pressing 1+2, only when i press the buttons next to the batteries, and that doesnt seem to work)
so i still search for a way to connect a controller to my phone without buying an original ps3 controller for 45€

Is there any USB receiver for your new controller? B'cause I have Thrustmaster 2.4GHz wireless PS3 controller but it had receiver so all 2.4GHz controller will have a separate receiver (Like small pendrive) which will receive controller signals. If not then it should be bluetooth controller.
Also phones default bluetooth app will not search your device no matter what you press on your controller, to pair your new controller you have to have bluetooth controller pairing app - I am using "SixAxis Controller" without which my Original PS3 Bluetooth Controller is useless.
Also any bluetooth controller should work it doesnt need to be PS3.
If you need any more details just search about it, if anything specific you can always ask me here.
yesyes
I have the Sixaxis Controller app, but as i said the controller isnt recognized even by the pc.
but you are right, theres no receiver, so it should be bluetooth.
oh my, i guess its broken and useless in the end
what else did i expect from a 10€ offer...
but still i will try it on a ps3 today.
maybe theres some sort of magic and it works^^
yay!
Well, magic it was.
I just had to use the "Sixaxis pair tool"
Connecting is done like that:
1. Start Sixaxis Controller App, dont click on "Start" yet.
2. Start the Sixaxis Pair Tool, available from http://www.dancingpixelstudios.com/sixaxiscontroller/tool.html
3. Connect the PS3 Pad to your PC via USB
4. After the Sixaxis Pair Tool has found your controller, enter the Phone's bluetooth address (as seen in the Controller App) into the Sixaxis Pair Tool window and click "Update". You change the comtroller's "master" to the phones address with this.
5. Disconnect the Controller USB cable
You can now click on "Start" in the Controller app, the controller will pair with the phone.
You dont need a profile for Dead Trigger, so its ok to test with it.
Just activate "native gamepad emulation" in the Sixaxis input preferences.
If you need profiles for games, you can find some here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1956604
you can install them as described in the thread or just go to settings -> input methods -> sixaxis controller -> preferences -> touch profiles and import it there, after this you can choose it in the Controller App. (Notice: import it in the settings, chose it in the App. 2 completely different places.)

I think any replica of DualShock 3 should be cheap and fine, I bought original DS3 for ~54$ however I was getting Chinese make good bluetooth controllers for half the price (~25$). I am talking about branded pads (RedGear, Amigo) but these pads are not available every where.
As LamerDuck mentioned his un-named PS3 controller(for 10€ ) is working fine so even cheapest one should be fine for casual gaming.
However i feel below controller looks quite good and very similar to my DS3, At least its properly packed and looks good check out below links:

Sorry if I'm beating a dead drum here but I couldn't really find a definite answer. In what way is Bluetooth limited in the nook HD using CM 10.1? I see that keyboards and mouse via wired USB are no problem, but are they working normally via bluetooth? I've tried my PS3 controller via Bluetooth and that didn't work so before I go out and spend a bunch of money on wireless Bluetooth peripherals (keyboard, mouse, joystick), I want to be sure they're working. Can anyone report Bluetooth peripherals that do work?

I've got a real one and it doesn't via bluetooth. I've read it does via wired usb connection, but we're talking about wireless Bluetooth here.
I'm not interested in using wired peripherals.
It needs app(s) and games that support gamepad.
PS3 controller app is one - requires reprogramming of BT key using a PC though.
Would like to hear other apps that work (with both XBOX360 & PS3). One that doesn't require reprogramming would be great.

Nope I've tried the app. It's my understanding that all Android devices require the app for PS3 joysticks to work via Bluetooth. In the case of the Nook HD+ running CM 10.1 it doesn't work at all. I'm wondering if that's exclusive to the PS3 controller, or if I can do retro gaming with any bluetooth controller.
Anyone have the Nyko Playpad Pro for Android/Bluetooth?
It's on amazon and has decent reviews.

My Moga Pivot bluetooth controller works great especially with the 3rd party universal driver. So glad i bought it when they were on firesale for $5.
All of my blue tooth controllers work that I have tried. I have three.
The six-axis app for ps3 controller DOES NOT work on CM 10.1 on the nook.
I tried every way possible. It only works if you connect it with usb, which i don't like either.
but six axis still won't function = useless.
The MOGA works as does the cheapo GameStop blue tooth controller.
I got a moga...tired of waiting for six axis to get fixed.

My PS3 controller won't work no matter what was used, sixaxis BT, USB host, joy center.

I don't plan to game a lot anyway. I'd just get the Nvidia Shield if I ever need to so more than casual time wasters on Androis
Yep, I have two controllers from Gamestop and both work fine with HD+.

your english is perfectly fine dude.
didnt really wanna spend more cash on another pad.
i have 4 xbox one pads and also a microsoft wireless adaptor, a couple of wii pads and 2 x ps3 pads knocking about. ps3 pads have borked batts tho.
something amongst that lot must work?! :crying:
If you really wanna use your Xbox One Controller, you can use an otg-adapter to plug in the wireless-adapter of your controller. If this doesn't work for you, you have to root your device and set up the controller via an extra app. An easier way to play emulator games on your tablet is using your smartphones as bluetooth controller. For this method you don't need to root your phone. Just load the app "BT Controller" via Playstore on your phone and your tablet and follow the instructions to connect them via bluetooth and easiely setup the buttons layout. You can set up 4 smartphones as controller at the same time
Hope i could help you

the tab sees the controller when its wired using the USB/BT joystick centre but thats as far as it goes, no key presses on the pad register.
i havent tried to use my phone as a controller, that kinda defeats the object tho', i may as well just use the tablet screen.
ok,
so it seems Play station pads with OTG function flawlessly.
bubble bobble here we come!!

I can confirm this; I use a Playstation 3 controller via OTG and an adapter regularly. I always start the Sixaxis app whenever I do, but not sure if I need to... I haven't even tried using it with blutooth, but it's an easy way to switch the IME to the controller.
Hello.
I watched many tutorials and videos about using ps3 on android but all I see is 2 options:
1. OTG cable
2. Root + Sixaxis enabler.
I do not want to root my s6edge+ and can't use otg cable while phone is connected to Gear Vr since it does not recognize it.
Is there any way to be able to use ps3 controller without root on Gear Vr?
Thanks
BR.
I might be wrong on this, but I think the PS3 controller needs root to manage the bluetooth driver. The PS4 controller would be the "no root wireless" option, but right now, i'm having issues getting it to work. I'm able to pair the controller, but not connect it. It seems that once it's paired, it defaults back to the PS4. I see this is a common problem with the new flagship Galaxy devices. It seems maybe a bluetooth problem.

Not only that, but you usually also need a custom rom/kernel in order for it to work (at least on my Note 4; stock rooted rom won't work with the PS3 controller).

I am also having this exact same issue. It's been driving me insane. I have bought an OTG cable and everything trying to get them working together but it also doesn't seem to work for me cabled.
Has anyone found any resolutions to this yet that anyone knows of? Really wanna play Demonhalls etc on Gear VR but can't get the controller to work! :'(
Yeah I can't get the ps3 to work either. I can pair the ps4 controller and it works for a little bit then it starts acting crazy. I bought an ASUS controller for $25 that works great except for not having a start button lol. Can't play anything in the arcade. I can't win.
I have a note 5 by the way.

works for dreadhalls as well-i cut out the controller buttons with those pads for chair legs with sticky back-only drawback no tactile feedback
Who ever is facing a problem in connecting the remote through cable, try to use a new cable and it might work.
It worked for me
