I native emmc installed CM 10.1 on my Nook HD+ but when I run the Sixaxis app my ps3 controller is not connecting. I am running the the 6-12 zip.I know the two are compatible be cause im running the same set up on my Galaxy s2. Any else experiencing this issue?
Yes I am also having this issue. No matter how I swing it I cannot get the sixaxis controller to connect to the nook HD+ running the 6-13 rom.
I've been having the same issue since going native 10.1. Missing my six axis love! On the 6/15 release.

Still not working
I can verify with the newest 6-29 zip. Sixaxis app still is not working. I thought for sure with new in-kernel Bluetooth driver the app would work.
Not working here
I am running the 6/29/13 Rom and can confirm sixaxis not working as well. Wonder what the story is?:crying:

Likewise. Toiled for a while.
emmc - CM10.1-20130613-unofficial-ovation
I just saw this threat so here is my two cents; the 0630 rom does not work with the PS3 Dual Shock Controller using BT either. I too hope it gets fixed.

Thought I'd provide an update, I emailed the author of Sixaxis given that it could be an issue on the app end (although I suspect it might be the bluetooth driver, which I understand has been moved into the kernel) , given I don't know specifically how it is written.
Hope this issue gets resolved as i would like to flash cm 10.1 but will stick with stock for now.

I have not had a chance to try the Sixaxis yet on this tablet (hopefully soon) but I have CM 10.1 on EMMC and the Moga Pocket controller both with the official Pivot application and MOGA Universal from the Play Store work great!

Fishtick, does Moga work with emulators as well? I might have to get this since I can't get generic usb controllers to work with my CM on Nook.
Ok so the MOGA works with cm 10.1 on nook HD + through blue tooth?
That's strange Verygreen says ps3 controller will not work as it has to do with some bug in cm 10.1 for tablets.
but yet MOGA works...Fishtick, do you have the MOGA Pro? if not which one do ye have?
Alex check out the amazon reviews, the first one indicates it works with all these emulators:
ePsxe, N64oid, Snesoid, Nesoid, Atarioid, Gameboid, M.A.M.E4Droid, GBCoid, and Gearoid.
I too am frustrated that the ps3 controller with six axis doesn't work.
You can get it working, but requires a usb gender changer and a usb hub to
connect the ps3 controller via usb. blue tooth is not working.

Sorry, missed this before. You can get MOGA Universal from the Google Play Store and this allows you to map buttons for all the emulators I have tried. It is great. I use the Pocket one and can't speak for the Pro version.

Thanks, Fishtick! I was able to borrow a USB hub from my dad and it actually fixed all my usb device problems. Now I use the USB/BT Joystick app with this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002JAU20W/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and a ps2 to usb adaptor as well.
I'll definitely be keeping the MOGA on my wishlist though!
fyi today only the moga pocket controller is 50% off! ($ 20 new) at moga site.
use promo code: SOCG12
So verygreen's CM builds have been officially added to the list of supported devices. Hopefully with nightly builds we will be getting a working connection between ds3 and our nook.

my local gamestop didn't have any left so I got the red samarai BT controller for 24.99 works great!
no software needed to make it work either. I'm running CM 10.1 July 19ish build.
it has a switch for Gamepad mode and BT Keyboard mode for key remapping too.

Hey, I'm getting a Bionic in a few days, has anyone been able to get a Wiimote working with an emulator? My dad has a bionic, I got it to connect to the WiiMote, but the emulators (nesoid & others) aren't recognizing the controller.
If you have a Wiimote, please test it? It's free, here it is:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.ccpcreations.android.WiiUseAndroid&feature=search_result
& Here's a lite emulator:
https://market.android.com/details?...EsImNvbS5qb2huZW11bGF0b3JzLmpvaG5uZXNsaXRlIl0.
I have been using Sixaxis on the market. Its only a buck or few and the controller is WAY easier to use then the Wii. Highly recommend buying it and (if not already owned) the controller. Oh, I think it still requires root. So if that's a problem then don't get it.
Ugh =*(, I hate the Playstation controller, the Wiimote one's not much better, & I would use the PS3 controller if I had one.
I'll just wait for CM7/9, I heard it modify's bluetooth & fixes the phones that have problems with it.

Yes, I believe Motorola botched something up with their Input Method handling. The Sixaxis Controller app uses a workaround called 'Bypass IME' to work on the Droid x2 and Bionic. Cyanogenmod does not suffer from this problem.
P.S. I'm working on an exciting update that might change your mind if you're interested in playing native Android games and not just emulators

Google play is telling me that its compatible.
If you're rooted install this app (free) to see if sixaxis will work or not.
I can't get it to work :/
It doesn't work. I was pretty disappointed considering i could even use a sixaxis controller on my iPhone
I remember reading that it has something to do with the bluetooth drivers HTC uses
Hi,
I'm new here and would start with this:
It's sad to here, that the HTC One doesn't support Sixaxis, I really hoped for that...
Is there any way to get the controller working e.g. with some kind of bluetooth dongle that emulates a keyboard to use it over an OTG cable?

It will work with a OTG cable but if the games doesn't have gamepad support, you would need the Sixaxis app.to map the keys.

What will happen if i connect two Sixaxis Controller over USB?
Will the HTC One regognize both controllers separatly?

No they will be seen as the same pad.
This is ridiculous on HTC's part and i'm seeing it as a complete deal breaker, i love this phone but this is a load of crap.
No controllers are working over USB OTG for me, anyone managed to get them to work?
Moga Pro working well however.
Try a custom kernel.

The moga works wirelessly I'm guessing? I was tempted to get it but never did because sixaxis always worked for me. Since apparently it doesn't on this phone, I may get the moga if it works wirelessly .

What's moga by the way? As for the six axis app, I'm guessing it'll work on aosp or cyanogen based ROMs.

i have the pocket moga and it works fine. Make sure to get the universal driver to use it in unsupported games:

the pro controller should basically mimic what a ps3 controller does

First unlock your HTC ONE, then recovery, then backup your original rom just in case. Install Viper ROM 1.1.0 along with Elemntal X kernel search forums here in xda. Download them and put both in a folder of choice on your internal sd card. Wipe factory reset, flash Viper ROM then flash Elemntal X kernel. Reboot, rebooot again (yes, twice). Connect OTG cable, no power add-on needed, direct cable only ($6 ebay) along with PS3 controller usb wired of course. Open game. Play. No sixaxis needed, kernel recognizes the contoller right away. Games it works with that I have and know for sure work. MC4, Max Payne, Shadow Gun, GTA 3 anniv. addition, Dead Trigger, havent tryed Nova yet but im sure it works, Sonic. Most of these games you cant configure buttons for so the kernel does the mapping for you that you cant change. NOTE: After market PS3 controllers dont work, work but some options dont work in game like shoot, BIG ONE lol. XBOX 360 works, but for the games that have button mapping ONLY. You loose options in game with ones that dont have mapping, like again, shooting. HOPE THIS HELPS EVERYONE!!!!!

Yea but then you have the issue of using a wired controller, I already knew that you could do that.
The whole fascination is that it's "Wireless", hence why were talking about bluetooth working with Sense, it's an age old issue which has plagued HTC's phones and the only way around it usually is to run an AOSP or Cyanagen based ROM.
Using the Moga allows you to keep sense and have a pad that works over BT.
Appreciate the input but it defeats the object.

I just bought a sixaxis PS3 controller, only to find it doesn't work with CM 10.1
Can anyone recommend a controller that is verified to work with my nook hd+ CM 10.1?
I read some say the generics from gamestop work, but if someone could provide a model # that would be great.
Thank you.

What method are you using? Using sixaxis with the nook hd+ doesnt work at all at the moment, but you can get a gender changer and connect a controller via usbhost.
Heres a link to get you started.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358535
Apparently authentic ps3 controller work over usbhost because verygreen did it in this video:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2307585
the red samurai bt controller at gamestop works well and is basically just like the ps3 controller.
First post, thanks for this great forum!
Wasn't sure if this should be posted here or in the Q&A forum so forgive me if I've misposted.
First, I'm sure the answer is yes, but are the sixaxis ps3 controllers still limited to rooted nook HD's?? I've done alot of seaching and I've seen ICS natively supports them so I was hoping it had changed.
Second, can the wii u pro controller connect to a stock nook HD through a wii controller app the same as a wii controller?
I've searched both these topics here and elsewhere without a dinfinitive answer so hopefully I'm not repeating a previous thread.
Thanks in advance!
So Sixaxis is supposed to work for a rooted Nook HD+? I haven't been able to get it working.
i have a dual shock 3 that works but you need to change the mac address of the controller first (via an app on pc/mac), then i used the sixaxis app from the play store to connect the controller. i'd be interested in checking out the wii u pro controller but i've been content just using the wiimote w/ the classic pro controller attached and it's working just fine for me, even if it is a bit clunky to carry all that stuff around. if you don't feel like putting in the legwork you could always just pay the $34.99 for a moga controller since it's probably the closest you'll get to an official android controller

Hello!!! I can't get my fire HD 8" 2017 to work with my PS4 controller nor a Xbox one controller either. Tried Bluetooth and OTG... With Bluetooth it says it syncs, but the controller doesn't do anything. With the OTG cable, it doesn't even connect. Anybody has an idea of what is going on? Is there something I'm missing? Any workarounds? Is this issue only on the Fire 8?

While based loosely on Android FireOS is heavily modified to suit Amazon's intentions for this device which most certainly does not included gaming on competitor's hardware. Amazon chose not to support certain Android capabilities which likely includes generic gaming controller support. Best guidance if using Amazon gizmos is to follow YouTube vids if someone else has figured out his to do it. Otherwise consider a different device that runs generic Android.
