So now that Honeycomb supports keyboards, is there any reason I can't use an HID compatible gamepad with the new USB adapter? Looking forward to checking out all the emulators on my nice big screen...
yes, it should be possible. google showed it off with an usb xbox controller at google i/o.

would this be possible? I currently own one but never used it.
I've been using a wii remote + nesoid for a couple days now. Works awesome. No need for usb dongle.

Yes I would love to know as well, if possible post files.
the wiimote uses bluetooth. I've been doing that for a year or more with my nexus one.

That's AWESOME!
I don't have a Wii Remote, and it doesn't seem like it would really work for N64 or PlayStation games. I am going to try the USB Xbox remote. I wonder if you could use two of them with a USB hub...
Is there a dock or something that has both usb and hdmi? That would make my tab a pretty impressive device for emulators.
the xbox gamepad+usb adapter won't work, you need drivers for that (even on older windows versions like XP).
just get a bluetooth gamepad instead.

Actually it would work as the classic gamepad connected to a wiimote also functions with the wiimote app.
Does anyone know if usb gamepads work with the Iconia? Would like to use an analoge pad if it can be done to play some PSX games..
Thanks, Sonkey
This has been discussed numerous times since 3.1 was released.
Yes, USB gamepads are supported. Not 100% sure about analog thumbpads for psx playing though. Try it

i use my usb controller to play snes all the time. not sure on psx just should work. no need for an app just connect and map the keys in the emulator. heres a link on the kind of controller im using

I have a wired usb xbox 360 controller. This works with the Iconia.
Sweet,
Does the analouge part work as well. If so that is what I will get

I use a wireless xbox 360 controller for PC (w/ usb receiver). This works well for nesoid hooked up to the tv via HDMI
why bother using a wired joystick when you can get a wireless joystick at just few bucks more..
i have PS3 wireless joystick and installed sixaxis contoller app... been happy and no problem so far
Those of you using an xbox controller hardwired..
my left analogue stick works but not the right one. also the top L+R buttons work but not the bottom ones..
do you guys have the same issues??
Also..
Those using the PS3 controller.. have you noticed that any buttons arent responding? might invest in a PS3 controller if they all work correctly.
thanks in advance.
I've bought this app on the market
(Damn, cannot post links...)
it's called 'USB/BT Joystick Center'
It's working perfectly to me...
I've tested 3 generic usb joysticks and all of them worked.
You can create the USB driver based on the bits input of the device.
really nice, and no root is needed.
rafinhasantana 'USB/BT Joystick Center
Hey rafinhasantana,
I bought USB/BT JOY center too but i was afraid to install it. check out the permissions on that thing. Says it can record passwords you enter in another application. I know its probably needed to record button actions etc... but i was a little concerned.
Do you have any issues with it thus far? Anyone else use this????

I've been looking into this. When you say a "wireless PS3 remote", sdo you mean the stock Sony branded remote, or other?

Hi!
Well i've had no problems with that.. It works like an alternative input method, like in the Wii controller input, but you're not gonna use to type your passwords around. I've contacted the developer about the deadzone for sticks and he hass implemented that...
It's working fine for me, and since I don't use the tablet for banking I'm not THAT worried about passwords on it at all...

Excellent, gonna go grab a Sony remote today. Thanks
I just noticed the Six Axis app requires root... shucks.
Those SixAxis Dual Shock controllers... the ones listed as wireless still have the mini USB connection on the back. Is that ONLY for charging, or can those be hooked up via USB to the tablet for use as well?

Im also thinkimg of getting a set or paiir of ps3 controller. Im kinda leaning towards the bluetooth wireless sixaxis. But before i pull the trigger, can anyone plz confirm that you can connect two wiireless sixaxis controllers simultaneously for 2-player mode in some games? If not, can the wired controllers do it? Tia
Anyone know if PlayStation One (dual shock) controllers can work properly?
I have one hooked up via an OTG cable and a USB conversion hub (to plug the controller into) and can only seen to get the analogue sick to work on FPse. The others buttons (other than the D-pad and right analogue stick) seem to be working in the joycentre but I am not sure how to get them to work outside it, out how to tell the joycentre what physical buttons the presses relate to. Does anyone know if a tutorial video in English?

are you sure it do sent need root because every freaking video I seen said you need it to use that app( can you make a video of how you do it.) if so can you use a controller to show me how to use it on modern combat 4 when you put it on YouTube
Is it possible to connect multiple ps3 controllers via bluetooth to play on the ePSXe emulator?
I can connect one easily enough with it and this emulator does accept multiple controllers but I'm wondering whether both can be connected to it via bluetooth as usb-otg isn't availiable with this phone.
Search for sixaxis controller on the play store.

You can only connect one controller at a time. It's a not PlayStation 1...it's a Nexus 7 tablet.

I already have the sixaxis app. Is it possible to have 2 connected at once via bluetooth (Very important as no usb-otg). I just don't want to buy another controller and find out it doesn't work.
And scream4cheese, it's a nexus 4 hence being in the nexus 4 q&a.

I just tried it. I connected both my dualshock and sixaxis controller to phone and was able to map both the controllers. It works.
I just bought one of the latest gen Fire Tablets from Amazon Black Friday. I have not rooted it. I do have the Google Play store on the device via a thread on this site.
I also have been able to install emulators using ES File Explorer and emuparadise.me
Trying to use the screen as the controller is impossible. Does anyone know of a controller that is known compatible for t his device? Or is at simple as just getting a Android Controller? Searching amazon for android controllers and then looking in the reviews for fire tablet has not helped much. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
DigitalHoarder
I believe you can use a PS3 controller over USB with an OTG cable and the app Sixaxis enabler.

All the Moga pads work natively, although I'd also assume that any Bluetooth pad will.

Iirc this requires root.
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.
