I would try another OTG adapter. Those are finnicky and sometimes they don't work and you have to use another model. Just buy the top one on Amazon.

The OTG is working fine.. I can turn on the LED in the controller so I can see that the problem is with the device itself.. Also I tried to use a keyboard and it worked fine.. So the OTG has no problems

Anyone?

Fairly certain that I've read OTG isn't supported because of the hardware limitation.
On SM-T230NT works fine. It's a feature. On others version of Tab 4 I don't know.

I think the NT has a Qualcomm chipset which allows for OTG, and some other models do as well. Unfortunately, AFAIK, since the SM-T230 and SM-T230NU have a Marvell chipset, they cannot have OTG implemented
It works fine in SM-T235
I think it's strange because according to the docs about the PXA1088 marvel chipset, it should allow usb host.

I am unable to use gamepad via usb OTG, although I am able to use pendrive, usb mouse, keyboard using OTG.
I tested gamepad on nexus 5 and its working there.
My dualshock 4 is working fine with USB otg cable.The only problem is the sixaxis app doesn't work anymore after the marshmallow update.Unable to pair for Bluetooth use.Wired works fine.

I didn't change any settings.Its plug and play.Only problem is that the buttons are not mapped correctly and that's why I use the sixaxis app, but its not updated for marshmallow yet. It's strange that your controller works on your nexus 5, but not on the moto x play.

I installed OTG troubleshooter app, it displays OTG detected but gamepad doesn't work.
Can you check your os and build versions??
Mine are bellow
OS: 6.0

Wondering what the outcome was for this as I'd been failing to connect my PS3 controller to my Moto G4 and I'd seen reports that OTG Gamepad didn't work on Marshmallow, apparently it's not the case ? Thanks !

Xbox One Controller - Bluetooth Connection Possible?

Hi everyone,
Was wondering if anyone was using their axon 7 with a wireless xbox one S controller over bluetooth, have you had issues connecting? Since apparently, the controller won't work when connected through an USB OTG cable...

I tested a PS4 controller via bluetooth and it worked, so maybe the xbone controller will? Can't you try?

I'm asking because I want to buy, so cannot try myself. But have already heard from other source that bluetooth connection is not possible on the phone due to microsoft firmware upgrade...

The Xbox One S Controller does support bluetooth, but apparently only for select android devices.
I'm now looking into the possibility of connecting it through an OTG adapter, see my other thread.

Yeah Xbox One S works via Bluetooth.
On connecting via otg, my phone crashes and reboots.

It might reboot because the controller attempts to charge from the phone. You should try with a powered OTG.

Hi,

I will check kernel logs and verify.

I'm curious, how much current does the HDD draw? Most full-size HDDs draw 5V 1A, don't know about 3.5 inchers but I've seen some with only one USB2.0 connector (500mA)

And yes, you would be correct ~1A, 5V.
But I can't seem to find powered USB C otg, in my country (cheaply )
Also I have put non chargeable Alkaline batteries in my controller.
Strange.
Additional Query -
Does USB C multi port adapter ala MacBook work with Axon 7?

Woah seriously? Because you're the first one I've found across XDA, Discord & Reddit that says that Xbox One S Bluetooth connection works... Are you running the latest Xbox One S Controller firmware? Also, which android version & rom are you working with?

Also, it's already confirmed that the Xbox One S controller only draws 500 mAh max from a usb port (see aida64 screenshot), so I've always found it to be pretty weird that the Axon 7 reboots on connect due to power draw...

Xbox one S updated with windows 10 anniversary edition. Maybe the latest version.
I have 3 different android devices on android Nougat 7.1, working with all of them.
1. Axon 7 2017 Chinese, 4gb 128gb - stock zte rom - ZTE_A2017V1.1.0B16
2. Xiaomi mi pad - LineageOS 14.1
3. Nvidia Shield TV - Shield Experience Upgrade 5.2
And buttons are mapped correctly too. I have played some games and ppsspp with it.

Do you remember updating your controller's firmware either through the Xbox accessories app or on the actual Xbox One Console?
Thanks in advance for responding btw .

Hi,
I tried taking kmsg(kernel log) when connecting xbox one s controller to Axon 7.
But I was unable to.
There is no /proc/last_kmsg
And bugreport is not being collected for reboot.
And I cant access /data/tombstones
Additionally dmesg in non blocking on android. So cant take kernel logs when the system reboots.
Any suggestions?

Normally, the phone does not reboot anymore if you have a nougat rom installed, when you connect the controller. Or at least, that's what's mentioned in this thread.
I don't know if you're on a nougat rom or not...

Hi,
I am on Nougat Rom, as mentioned previously.
Initial support for wired xbox one (S) controller was added to xpad kernel driver in linux kernel 3.17.
Chinese Axon 7 Nougat B16 has kernel version 3.18.31 (dunno about USA or Euro versions),
So I theorize that restarts are being caused by kernel panic due to driver problems, but I am unable to check.
I any case xbox one S controller wired OTG is not possible without custom kernel(maybe?) on last years devices, as most of them are on 3.10.
Maybe wait for Google Pixel ).
Regards,
Ravi

[Request] AIDA64 Usb devices screenshot - Xbox One Controller OTG connected

Hi Guys,
Since an Xbox One Controller cannot be connected over bluetooth to this device (check out other thread here), I was wondering if the ZTE Axon 7 does pick up the device when connected over USB-C otg.
I know that button mapping is incorrect or that the controller doesn't seem to work with android games. I only intend to use it with moonlight, which has its own built-in driver.
What I'm looking for is confirmation that the Axon 7 does pick up a USB device when the controller is connected, you can see that if you use the AIDA64 app, under the USB devices section. I'm looking for a screenshot of this app on the Axon 7 with the xbox one controller connected.
You can find an example here.
Thanks in advance!

Ey Znuf, did it work? Apologies for pushing, but I'll have to make a decision on new phone soon, and if aida64 does not pick it up, would be kind of a dealbreaker .
Thanks !

Ey Znuf! Thank you so much, no problem at all .
My last questions and then I'll stop bothering you: which android version/custom rom/device (A2017G/A2017U/A2017) are you using? Specific otg cable that you were using?
Thanks
I'm on G variant with stock room.
The USB cable is a icy box cable ref ib-cb006

I've not been able to test OTG yet, will do tomorrow. But already tested with Bluetooth, and it's picked up as a regular controller with correct button mapping for several Android Apps (tried Moonlight & Mupen64).
I can now sadly confirm that while running LineageOS 14.1 (based on Android 7.1.2) on the phone, my XBOX One Controller DOES NOT WORK while connected over OTG, even more, I experience the reboot loop issue.
I've not tried it on the stock rom, but will stay on LineageOS for now. The controller does work over Bluetooth (with correct button mapping in my experience).

Ds4 Connected but no input.

has anyone also has this problem? I can pair the controler through bluetooth but no input on my phone. tried also with sixaxis but no go.
ive used it sometime ago but now it doesnt work
I'm on stock ROM/kernel 9.0.12 rooted with magisk 18.1
Unfortunately Sixaxis is not compatible with Android Pie yet. (From what I read)
I am also having the same issue, currently working on a fix or something.
Try this works on my 6t (bluetooth isn't really good with ds4 controllers)

Thank you! However it still doesn't work, and during my testing the last few days, I even tried the module. I'm sure this would be better with an xbox one controller instead. :/
that module doesnt work for me with wired, buttons are mess.

For wired, the DS4 is in HID mode, just keep the default config
