All credit and thanks for this find should goto chaosjh here.
The A500 is compatible and seems to work fine. I've downloaded it and gave it a try in FPse. I'll try it out with some emulated Mario to see if I notice the same lag I do when using a Wii remote in SNES9x EX, but I have to go to work.
Edit: Now I went through this quickly, but am I correct in thinking that this requires a PC in order to reslave the Sixaxis to a new device?
Only needed if you want to use Bluetooth, as the sixaxis works fine wired using 3.1.

The issue I have when I use it wired is that the Start button always brings up the home screen. That means I can't map anything in games to Start.
This works fine on my phone, a friend recommended it.
However, I cannot get it to work on my iconia a500. I made sure that the controller is using the same bluetooth mapping, and when I turn it on, it definitely syncs with the iconia (the controller goes to port 1, and when i turn bluetooth off on the iconia, the controller turns off), however, the program never shows "Client Connected: 1" like it does on my phone. Ive changed the input type to Sixaxis, bluetooth IS enabled, the phone IS rooted and the controller technically does sync with the tab, but it doesnt load in the program.
Any ideas? Anyone else run into this.

Do you have a 2nd controller to test it with?
ICONIA have native wired compatibility.. why actuallyy u need this ?
Make sure you're not running the Compatibility Checker app in the background (i.e. be sure to stop the compatibility checker before starting the main app.

Hook your Iconia up to the TV via HDMI, put it down on the TV stand so it's not in danger of being tripped over and game from your couch. Totally worth the cost of a soft drink to me.

I totally picked this up in an instant... going wireless is so much better, and the keys are remappable, so in that way it's better than what you get using it over USB. Plus this way I can put all of those huge PS1 roms on my new 32GB USB stick and not have to worry about having no port left for the controller. Also enjoyed playing Cordy console-style with the tab hooked up to the TV and using the DS3... the beginning of the future is here, my friends.

In this case we used some Wii remote as well as I've only set up one Sixaxis with the pad. I'll test out 2 Sixaxis eventually.
So I tested connecting to controllers. The app will recognize them and the corresponding lights with light up on them. Unfortunately I couldn't use more than one on SNES9X EX because it can't set two player inputs to be "keyboard."
I also tested it on FPse for PS1 emulation. I was able to map the buttons on both controllers but then I tried to use the second one in Tekken 3 it spazzed out like crazy. I don't know if that was an issue with the Sixaxis app or the emulator.
Edit: I just experienced a random restart of my tablet while using this app in SNES9x EX. I'm not sure if this was an issue with the Sixaxis app, HDMI out, or something else but I lost over an hour of Bahamut Lagoon and have to repeat an entire battle.
hell i went and bought a ps3 controller cause i dont own a ps3. but i love using the ps3 controller over the wiimote any day. lol is it wrong to charge my ps3 controller with my xbox? bahahaha
this app is great and its very easy to set up, just like the wiimote controller app but one more step
So i could use the controller to play sayyyy Dungeon Hunter 2 or N.O.V.A or is it only for Emulators?

Just a little video on the HDMI functions of the galaxy note (as a kind of game console and entertainment system)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBsqMV4Pymc
Some small issues that I found:
-Battery can in-fact go down (while on charge)
-The phone seems to slow down a little bit (not unusable, but noticeably)
-HDMI connection sometimes cuts out for a few seconds every half hour or so (might be the TV though)
And finally does anybody know a good android compatible bluetooth game controller? THAT would make this set up complete!
-Cheers
I've used the iControlPad with the BluezIME app on a GalaxyTab 7". Works very well. There are also ways to use a PS3 wireless controller with Galaxy devices, and even wiimotes if you put the CyanogenMod ROM on your device.
ICS should open up the options in this area considerably.
I didn't buy a controller, I just use my PS3 one. One of the best controllers out there for emulator games! Nice video btw.

Thanks for the reply, but how is the range on the iControl Pad like? The Rii mini keyboard that i'm using states 30m but you're lucky if you can get 2m. After this it starts cutting out connections and prolonging key-presses with jerky movements etc.

I use my PS3 controller with the 'SIXAXIS Controller' app for emulators. I use it with SNESOID and it works perfectly.

My PS3 recently died with the YLOD so I now have two spare PS3 pads, may aswel make use of one! The controllers are very well built, the battery on them lasts ages and the range is really good.

that is bizzare as 1080i should be 30hz and 1080p should be 60hz.

What is the cheapest gamepad for android devices?
I thought a PS3 controller would be great, so i bought one from ebay but i realized to late that the "ps3 controller" app only works with the controllers from sony, because otherwise there are pairing problems.
Yes PS3 controller is onlty for PS3... If you want to use an other controller, use the Phonejoy
No, as often said before, you can use a PS3 Controller for your Android devices (at least for the most)...
But in fact it must be a PS3 controller from sony.
Everything you have to do is to buy "sixaxis controller" from the market, pairing your controller once (with the computer and the showed local bluetooth_adress) and connect it to your device.

driver?
hey i've bought that keyboard to for my xperia s and the driver that came with it didnt work so i useb blueinput but i cant see the mouse ,what driver do you use?
Hi guys, can anyone help me with this. I have have bought the gadgets needed to turn the note into a gaming console, but i had to buy a generic Bluetooth keyboard because i couldnt find the one specified.
My problem is that the keyboard is fine and all, its paired and works well in the native environment. I can type, i have access to quick keys such as menu or home button and back. It even has a track pad which also works. My problem is when i use it as a gamepad in emulators. For the moment i'm using the app Super GNES from google play to run the SNES games. altho i have configured it to use specific keys in the Button Mapping, everytime i start a game, the keys ive configured didnt work. its like the bluetooth keyboard isnt even connected but its connected because when i use the trackpad i can see the mouse pointer. I was thinking of getting the sixaxis controller app, but, as it turns out i need to root the phone which i am not willing to do.
So is there soemthing i'm doing wrong?
Is there another app like the sixaxis controller that will work that does not need a rooted phone?
Thanks
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.

I just tried it. I connected both my dualshock and sixaxis controller to phone and was able to map both the controllers. It works.
Hi there! I bought a Tegra Note7 which is equipped with Tegra4 Chipsets.Now I want to play games with DualShock3 via SIXAXIS CONTROLLER. The thing is that the app worked very well on my Moto Droid Bionic,but it did not work on my Tegra Note7. When I clicked "start" with every necessary steps done and the screen displayed address of bluetooth and listening for controllers,the "bluetooth" icon did not appear on the top status bar. So the DS3 controller was continuous flashing its 4 red lights,then no other things took place.
I have restored original android 4.3 rom,no changes. Could*you*please*tell me how to work it out? Thank you!
Before I rooted tablet I was able to plug ps3 controller in and was able to map buttons m8 I also used sixaxis enabler and everything fine until rooted then lost all ps3 controller mappings there's very little info on this subject I asked before ,something to do with Bluetooth drivers !

There's really nothing to figure out. The bluetooth stack on the stock ROM just doesn't work with PS3 controllers. Until someone can make a custom ROM with some sort of changes to bluetooth (or until Nvidia releases a ROM with decent bluetooth support), it's just not going to work, and there's nothing we can do to change that.

It's technically possible, but there has been almost no developer interest in this device. There are no custom ROMs available, and there's only one alternative kernel available, though I never did try a Sixaxis with that kernel... I do know that it broke support for my Moga, so that's not exactly promising. I'll have to give the Sixaxis a try here in a bit.

Assuming you mean shaky156 kernel I can confirm that it doesn't help the bluetooth issue
Just tried the latest version of Sixaxis with the latest OTA. And it seems to finally work on the built in blutooth stack without a usb dongle!
I'm not sure if this is the right place to post, but I searched all over and couldn't find anything.
I'm having a problem keeping my WIFI connection when using the SixAxis app. It only stays connected for a minute or so and then goes back to LTE. And it won't connect back to WIFI until I disconnect from the app and turn on airplane mode or reboot.
Also, I'm able to connect and use my Dualshock 3 controller, but it doesn't connect to Bluetooth.
I'm running Resurrection Remix v5.2.9(LP 5.0.2) on my D800, if that helps any.
Thanks!
Are you saying that it's working with cable but don't work with Bluetooth? Did you used the SixaxisPairTool to pair your controller with your phone?
And I also have too that problem with WIFI, maybe it's a bug on Android L.

It's connected wirelessly via Bluetooth, but it shows that Bluetooth isn't on when connected.
Yeah, it doesn't show that Bluetooth it's opened, but the app works well. I use a Dualshock 3 with ppsspp emulator and it's work great except those 2 bugs, I didn't even noticed that bug with Bluetooth until you said . As I told, maybe those bugs are only on Android L and they will be fixed

Yeah, the WIFI thing is annoying because you can't play N.O.V.A.'s multiplayer on data.
