tried that too but my tab could not find the controller.

Follow their instructions
Have to be rooted in order to do this
get the compatibility checker to see if your kernel supports it and get the bluetooth address of your tablet.

Get the bluetooth address of your tablet and then use their pairing program to switch the control from your playstation to your tablet

then fire up the app with bluetooth turned off first, the app will turn it on. Start, allow root access and then hit the playstation icon on your controler

It works on my tablet. I am rooted with a custom ROM and kernel, but Shadowgun plays very nicely with my playstation 3 controller

[Q] Wii U Pro Controller + Lolipop 5.0.1?

Good morning/afternoon/evening all,
For the last several hours, I've been trying to pair my Wii U Pro controller to my phone and I've tried all (including that bluetooth fix app that was all in Japanese) and nothing seems to work. I even tried the regular Wii controller app just to be sure.
I've actually contacted Nintendo and the device was not actually given a PIN to use on devices, just the Wii U.
So my question is:
Is there any way to pair the device without the PIN? The phone recognizes it instantly, however obviously no PIN combination works.
Specs of Phone:
Note 4 [Canadian] Rooted
TEKXodus N4
Bluetooth works fine with regular devices (with PIN)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Has anyone successfully connected an xBox or PS3 controller to the S2?

I'm trying to get either an xBox 360 or a PS3 controller connected to my S2 but so far have been spectacularly unsuccessful. Has anybody managed to do it without rooting the device or flashing a new rom?
I've tried both, connected through an OTG cable that I know works because I can use both a flash drive and a wired mouse with it.
I'd rather not root it, it's still under warranty and I don't want to lose that and I definitely don't want to flash a different rom. I like it as it is.
One thread I found implied that the Sixaxis app would allow me to connect the PS3 controller by using the USB cable I have for charging it but I've found this not to be the case. It just tells me that it can't find the controller on Bluetooth and doesn't even seem to look for a wired one.
Searching has shown me that the controllers can be connected to other tablets but I'm yet to find anyone who has done it with the S2.
Please can anyone help? I'd love to be able to play games on my tablet without using the on screen controls which I find very awkward.

I should say that my S2 is an SM-T713

You would definitely need a keymapper, I'd say. Unless the game in question nativity supports a gamepad/controller.
Did you check the Nvidia Shield Tablet threads?
I think they came up with a *no root* solution, which should be applicable for all sorts of Android devices.

Thanks, I'll have a look

I was in a similar boat to you a few week ago on my stock T715:-
-Xbox 360 Bluetooth, no connection
-PS3 Bluetooth, no connection
-Xbox 360 Wired/OTG, no connection
-PS3 Wired/OTG, connection but sometimes with calibration issues
I went to a shop in the UK called CeX and asked for a Bluetooth controller. They had a used Gamesir S3 for £15 which is cheaper than a wired PS3 controller. The Gamesir is excellent, it's connected every single time. They supply a micro USB to micro USB cable so you have the choice of wired or Bluetooth. Both work flawlessly without any calibration issues.
Best £15 I've spent this year. :victory:

Fail.

I can recommend gamesir s3 too. It also came with a clip that you can use for your phone.

BT gamepad

Hi all. I have a problem connecting my ipega BT controller to my note 8. I used this controller with my s8+ without problems but When I connect it to the note8 it connects withoUt problems but doesn't work in the game (tried few games). the only thing that works is volume controls and in the internet browser it can move up and down the page. It seems to me my phone recognizes the controller as a keyboard. Does anyone have any idea What I could do? Thanks

Xbox One or other Bluetooth controllers with Tab S 8.4

Hiya, managed to pick up a Tab S 8.4 recently, was hoping to use it with a controller for steam link and/or moonlight game streaming. Tried to connect both an Xbox One controller and an ipega 9023 controller via Bluetooth but could not get either to work. They pair and connect to the tablet and show up as a connected controller under Bluetooth settings but they don’t do anything.
Anyone any idea if there is something in Android 6 or Samsung’s software that stops these working? If I upgrade via rooting and a custom rom am I likely to have any more success?
