Was wondering if this is any way to connect by PS3 controller to my phone, It worked straight away with my Nexus 7 with an OTG cable, but nothing is detected on my HTC. Is there a solution for it?
I also have my phone rooted if that helps.

use a custom kernel like elementalx or bulletproof, they support the ps3 controller.
Nice ElementalX worked, thanks for that!

hey guys! does anyone tried this functions on razr i?
theres no wifi direct option...
havent tried otg
No USB-OTG @stock. If I plug and USB stock, nothing appends
Maybe with something like Stickmount
About Wi-Di, as it's an Intel Device, maybe can we hope some support on day. I don't know if the Medfield SoC is WiDi compliant.
The Lenovo K800 is WiDi, no reason that the Razr i will no be..
I am so longing for USB OTG.... can't wait to use DSLR Controller with this cell phone.
:/
Maybe Motorola will release a ROM that includes USB Host functionality?

Mmmh, still no USB OTG with JB.... dammit
I've heard OTG doesn't work because the razr I as it doesn't output any power and usb devices need power, I have ordered a lead which has a separate lead to supply power to the usb device and I'll update when I receive it and have tested.
Sent from my XT890 using xda premium
So the lead came and to my sadness doesn't work for my razr I :'(
I was looking forward to that too
Sent from my XT890 using xda premium
I'm currently using an powered OTG cable to connect my mouse and keyboard on my xt890.
the pen drive is not working im gonna test some mods on that,
OTG is working but only devices like mouse, keyboard, pad etc. USB drives doesn't work cause kernel has no option for that. To use OTG You need to connect devices through powered USB hub.

For WifFi Direct you can use this app : SuperBeam
Cheers
I tried it but failed to connect with Galaxy Mini II.
Did you switch on your WiFi ? Even for me it works only on certain devices but most of the time I forget to turn on the WiFi.
Yes I did. :/ It fails starting to transfer file.
Hmm. That's weird. Maybe you could try their IP Address method. I'll have to get back to you later because I don't a spare android smartphone. If it works I'll give you a description of what to do. Maybe its the new upate that's causing it. You could also try an older version of the app.
Someone know a way to use the Dualshock 3 controller with the Gameklip on the LG optimus 4x hd ?
I buy this one:

Thanks

I don't think you can use that as of now, you need to wait until the bootloader gets unlocked so we can use kernels. With kernels you can do allot one of them is USB host, and that is what you need to use that controller i believe.

Stop talking such things. You can use original ps3 pad with the aplication named sixaxis by bluetooth, before that You just plug in controler to Your computer and change its bluetooth adress to the phone ones.

That is true if you connect it with Bluetooth, but not with USB and i saw they connected the gameklip with USB and it wont work with USB.
yeah its done through Bluetooth and a tool called sixaxis for use with games,but I don't know of gameklip

gameklip is just an plastic holder for the phone, and the ps3 , isnt it ?
yeah from what ive just read it looks like its just a mount for the gamepad so all thats needed without even buying the gameklip is the sixaxis software which is free
Sorry, about my post, I just want to check something:
So we can't use any gampad that uses the OTG cable, but we can use any bluetooth gamepad - prefered one is the PS3 Sixaxis controller with the sixaxis app form the play store???
THanks for any help
Has anybody managed to get there xbox controller to run on there One yet? I tried my wired controller with the OTG cable and had no luck. Worked fine on my One X. Cant remember if i installed something else to get it to work.

No, i've tried both the xbox controller and the ps3 and none work, both with six axis app or usb bt center. I'm afraid it looks like everyone will have to wait until a custom kernel comes out that supports it.
This is an age old sense thing which has been happening since the days of the Hero, trust me i remember.
A vanilla rom and or a kernel that supports it. I think with sense it's only happened a few times where someone has been able to get it to work. I think on the Desire HD, but i might be wrong about that.
It's a real shame as it's one of the features that i was looking forward to, MHL out whilst playing tekken 3
I'm having a strange problem. I recently bought an USB OTG cable to use my PS3 controller on my Moto G.
The phone is rooted, but the stock 5.0.2 ROM (22.26.1.titan_retde.redeall.en.DE retde) hasn't been altered otherwise.
So, when I plug in the PS3 controller via the USB OTG cable, the controller immediately starts charging (slow blink of all 4 leds), but I can't do anything else. I though Android was supposed to support the PS3 controller out of the box?
I tested the cable, it works fine. I connected my Kingston 16GB flash drive, it was automatically mounted and I could access it with Root Explorer.
I also tried the PS3 controller and cable with my Samsung Galaxy S4 (stock android 4.4.2, unrooted) - the controller works perfectly. A Logitech RumblePad 2 which I had lying around also works like a charm on the S4, but doesn't do anything on the Moto G.
So the problem has to be either the Moto G itself or (probably) Android Lollipop.
Did anybody else have a similar problem? Can anybody help me?
P.S.: I don't want to use the PS3 controller over BT, reason for that see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/bluetooth-vs-wifi-t3046293

I have the same problem you have buddy, except in my case it's a generic gamepad but the problem is the same: missing drivers, you could compile the driver easily but there seems to be a problem with lollipop kernel sources (in kitkat it worked fine). Anyways when the problem is solved i will compile the drivers, check out this thread btw, we are trying to solve this problem http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/help/gamepad-joystick-otg-support-t2995943

Thank! After I posted this thread I found the one you linked, and already have it in my bookmarks. I hope somebody will find a solutions.
Unfortunately I'm bad at coding, so I can't really contribute. I'm just baffled, that Android gets "worse" with every new version (at least in my eyes). Why did they break something which was working perfectly before?

It's not exactly like that, in fact motorola has never enabled those drivers on kitkat nor on lollipop. What i did was to compile those drivers and they worked (on kitkat) but now when i try to do the same it doesn't work on lollipop, my guess is that there's something wrong with lollipop kernel sources
Oh, I didn't know that. I thought this was something Android-related (like it is so basic, all Androids should have it), not something that each manufacturer has to integrate himself.
Hey guys.
trying to get an xbox one pad working on the tab s2 for my kids to play emulators.
no joy so far...
... is this actually possible yet?
I don't know, if this is possible, but I use the Asus Gamepad that is made for the Asus Nexus Player. It works fine on all my android devices.
Hope my english is good enough...

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 s2 is rooted.
i have tried it with OTG, wired and using an adaptor.
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.
