I just received the xcloud streaming invitation for xbox and I am not able to connect my xbox controller to my phone via bluetooth. I never had this issue with the s9. But now it won't even detect it. I've tried with 3 different controllers.
Have you hit the little discoverable button in between the bumpers?
1) Turn on controller.
2) Press discoverable button (maybe hold?)
3) Scan for devices on phone.
I just went through this for the same reason. Hope this helps!
Yeah, I have scanned restarted the controller updated it through pc. It just cant detect the controller. And it is a controller with bluetooth.

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
Hello XDA Community!
I own a rooted Samsung Galaxy S3 i9305 (Android 4.4.4). When I connect my xbox 360 controller with an OTG cable, nothing happends. I've tried to connect it before I start a game and while in game. It only starts blinking and nothing else happends. I can connect a keyboard/mouse to my OTG cable and it works like a charm. Is this a common problem? Can I fix it somehow? I've tried to follow some post which led me to download .kl files which I put in /system/usr/keylayout but it didn't change anything. I really want this to work.
Is there noone with any knowledge about this problem?
Hello. Your phone may not be powerful enough like a tablet to be able to run Xbox 360 controller.
And most of the game will support this out of the box without configuring like on PC games.

Well, in this video you can see it works with the i9300, I have the i9305.

And I can see my controller show up and read button activity inside "USB/BT JoystickCenter GOLD".
Basicly I think the controller communicates with my phone, but my phone doesn't understand since it's missing something?
Yes it's funny as I also got the samr model as you. Did your controller flashed rapidly like mine did? Left/Right bumper should swipe to different pages and the d-pad should select the icons you work. This didn't work either.
Try a Bluetooth controller maybe?

Mine flashed rapidly (like they always do.) and my problem is also that my bumpers doesnt swipe pages or select any icons. I have no bluetooth controller and I can get x360 controller to work with apps, such as USB/BT Joystick Center GOLD. But I dont want that, I need "native support" or w/e you want to call it. I want it to work with limelight to play games.
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
Hello everyone, so I was attempting to connect my Dualshock 3 (PS3) controller on my device but it seems to be impossible with the old tools that I have. For instance I've had rooted my phone successfully with TWRP + Magisk and everything work well, but the old Sixaxis controller apk or even the Sixaxis enabler apk doesn't recognize my controller or Bluetooth. The only thing that happens is some light blinking on the controller when I try to connect with USB + OTG. Did someone ever was able to make the Dualshock work on XT1926? Thank you since then.
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?
