Steel Series Stratus XL - Shield Tablet Accessories

I didn't see a thread for controllers. This controller works great, connects immediately and for someone who's grown up on dualshock it feels at home in my hands. I don't want to turn this into a review. Just another option for people. The one downside is the lack of a rechargable battery. If you have questions or want pics just ask. Or a mod can close this thread if there's a thread of compatible controllers I missed. I haven't tested with Windows yet, but I can test it with my XPS 15 if someone wants, I just don't game on it much.

I use the Xbox One S Wireless white controller on mine it connects through Bluetooth but for some reason I have to re-pair it after I've turned off the controller or tablet. I couldn't get the original Xbox One controller to ever work even with a usb OTG cable and root.

[Q] Wired USB controller for Emulators

Curious if anyone knows about hooking up a wired, usb controller to the TF while docked. I already own the wired gaming controllers that I use on my laptop for SNES roms, but wanted to use it on the transformer while I'm out.
android 3.1 supports the xbox and ps3 wire controllers...and i'm guessing other standard (meaning they work without custom drivers) gamepads.
i test an old PC gamepad i had, and it only partially worked. (some buttons aren't recognized, or recognized weirdly)
eitherway, it's trial and error.
but officially, Android 3.1 supports, at the very least, the xbox and ps3 controllers.
I can confirm ps3 controller works

Will give it a try
Sweet, well i have an older gamepad that once I get the TF I will give it a shot, worst comes to worst will just pick up an xbox controller and call it good
The Xbox 360 USB controller does not work with this tablet.
Are you using an actual USB 360 controller or a 360 controller with the charge and play cable? The charge and play cable does not transmit data, it only charges, so you would have to have the 360 controller synced through blue tooth to make it work that way.
I got one of these docks today so I can confirm that the following controllers work with the dock:
PS3 dual shock
Logitech Cordless Precision PS3 controller (Wireless!)
Mayflash Classic Controller USB adapter (this one surprised me)
HOWEVER!
I was unable to get any of the emulators to register the right analog stick, which for most emulators is not a big deal, but still not as good I think as just using a wii remote with a classic controller which seems to work for all the buttons and sticks and things.
Also, I was unable to get 2 usb gamepads to be recognized independently (i.e. as player 1 and player 2) so for me this is not good either. I am now selling the dock on ebay because the only plus for me was being able to have 2 wireless USB gamepads that are not tethered to something else (wii remote) and be able to play 2 player games. Otherwise this dock just makes my transformer less portable. I'm sure for some people it's great though, I'm not knocking it, it just wasn't suited for what I wanted.
Anyone try it with a Logitech gamepad (usb)?

Yes, I'm using an actual USB Xbox 360 controller not the wireless controller with the charge and play cable. This is an issue that if you search the forums you'll find others who have the same problem. I had emailed Asus more than a month ago about the issue and they finally responded and said:
Dear Valued Customer,
For the problem, currently TF101's dock does not support xbox 360 controller.
Sorry for any inconvenience. Wish you have a nice day.
Best Regards,

And when I asked if it will be supported in the future:
Dear Valued Customer,
Currently TF101 does not support it, but I will pass your test result as a VOC(vovice of customer) to the related dept.
Sorry for any inconvenience. Wish you have a nice day.

The wireless gamepad I tried was Logitech, so I would imagine that this would work as well. I have a couple of older model Logitech gamepads I can test later on if I get around to it.
I really am disappointed though in the fact that android 3.1 does not seem to distinguish between 2 different gamepads plugged in at the same time. I tried setting up a 2 player game of Contra by mapping buttons for player 1 and player 2 on each respective pad, but both gamepads controlled both characters at the same time. So it's fine for single player, but any kind of multiplayer is no go.
I take it back. It is something they are looking to resolve:
The next firmware update will support xbox 360 controller and the firmware will be released soon.

At least now I don't need to buy another controller.

Thanks so much for the info! But would you be so kind as to check with the older model Logitech gamepads (with usb)? I'm looking to buy the one that I linked you earlier and this would definitely be a deal breaker if it didn't work.

PS3 controller to galaxy tab.

can you connect the ps3 controller to the tab via bluetooth?

I have not seen ANYTHING other than PS3s that could pair with a PS3 controller.
However, if you have Pershoot's kernel and the controller is fully charged, you can connect it via USB.
Will not work with stock kernels (no driver)
Will not work if the controller wants to charge its battery (overcurrent protection will trip)

Does anyone happen to know what controller exactly would work on a Galaxy Tab 10.1 in combination with the official USB Host adapter? I only have a PS3 controller at home but would be willing to spend some cash on an USB controller if I was sure it would work. Any chance the XBox 360 for PC USB controller works? Wouldn't mind if it's the wired one but the wireless one would be cool, too.

PC USB controllers should work without any work.
Xbox 360 controllers need Pershoot's kernel and the extra modules (aka "lib") archive.
Fully charged PS3 controllers work as USB but not Bluetooth with Pershoot's kernel/modules. PS3 controllers that don't have a fully charged battery will trigger an overcurrent trip when connected.
Actually this just came out. Works like a champ with the Tab 10.1.
Yup, this is a brand new development that happened since my last post on this subject.

Logitech F310, F510, F710 controllers

I bought the Logitech F310-controller. It works fine with N64oid and ok with Reckless Racing & Getaway.
However, even though I select gamepad as control method I can not get Shine Runner nor Air Attack HD working. Do these games work for other people or do these games require a PS3-controller?
I bought the logitech F510. In Riptide GP works fine, but 3D games, like Shadowgun, cannot be played, because right analog doesn´t work correctly. I try Kernel module pack V4 from this forum, but it not help me. I think it was a mistake bought this gamepad. Perhaps I will go buy PS3 controller...
Dumb question but do you need the dock for this to work? I bought it thinking I can just pair with the Bluetooth.

Yes, you need the dock to plug it in via usb. Unless of course you have an OTG USB adapter, in which case you would plug it into that.
I briefly had the F710 before I returned it and bought an excellent condition used-PS3 dualshock 3 from Gamestop. The only game I attempted to play was Grand Theft Auto III, and it worked perfectly fine for that. I much prefer the Sixaxis method though because you create touch profiles for games that don't support controllers.
EDIT: Should note that the Logitech F310/510/710 series controllers are all well made, but not nearly as comfortable to use as a PS3 controller (which itself is one step below a 360 controller imo). However, you can use them with a PC relatively easier than you can a Sixaxis.
I couldnt connect F710 to S3, is there a special way to do it?
I can't connect F510 to S3
Someone use F510 on S3?

How is the PS3 controller working for you? I have the 710, and it seems like it works about half the time. I am now running CM10, and it worked better with that than any other rom until the latest nightly. I would love something more reliable and consistent. Would you still recommend the PS3 controller and Sixaxis?
I have the Sony Dualshock 3 Sixaxis and works perfect via Usb Otg and wireless with Sixaxis App!
I have and the Logitech F510 that it's a perfect gamepad for pc gaming and very durable!!
But my Samsung Note 3 Neo (Kitkat Root) can't see it...

OTG cable with PS2 controller?

I have the international s3 and running Omega ROM. I would like to play games with a controller and read that a OTG cable will be needed which I can try to find and buy but my question is, will it work with a ps2 controller since I have so many of those laying around? Or will it only work with Ps3 and Xbox360 controllers?
You can get an adapter for about $4 to use Ps2 controller on Ps3 and if you plug it into OTG it will recognise a Ps2 controller as if it was a Ps3.

Did you get it? I have two ps2 controllers and I would like to use them with my S3. But I wouldn't buy the adapter if it is not possible. Thanks.
I think it will work with almost any controller over USB OTG with the app Sixaxis Controller https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller ... using controllers with bluetooth though... pain in the ass!

PS2 controllers have a very large custom plug which does not even look anything like a USB plug.
PS3 controllers have a normal USB-plug, hence Michael_P's recommendation of getting a PS2->PS3 controller adapter and then plug that adapter into the USB-OTG.

Thanks, I forgot this important detail. But I have an old PC controller (Logitech), so I bought the USB-OTG adapter and I will try with it.
Every controller has it's own layout, so it might not work at all or only through (commercial) Support apps like Joystick Center
(Remember that you cannot install your old driver on the phone)
I have already the OTG-USB and it works perfectly with my Logitech RumblePad 2 (I had to search it in my storage room).
It moves thought the desktop and I can push the icons. But I tried two games:
- In Virtua tennis doesn't work the buttons
- In Asphalt 7 doesn't work the joysticks
Do you known if could I use an app as this one (it is of paid and I would like to be sure):

What conrtollers work with this tablet

Hi
I have used many controllers with this tablet and for some reason the right axis stick never works and no way to configure, tried both wierd and connected with a otg cable .
Used:
Xbox 360 wierd controller
Xbox one controller wierd and wireless
Ps3 dualshock wierd
Ps4 wirless and wierd mode
Cable used: ugreen otg from amazon sorry cant post link
Any suggestions please.
I love the one I got for my Switch. Also works on PC (wired as a 360 controller and Bluetooth as a Steam controller) and with Android through Bluetooth. N30 Got it on Amazon. Works great, feels good, and feels like it'll last. Don't miss the NFC or HD Rumble of the true Pro Controller, which aren't even an issue as an Android controller anyways.
Hi, no one have the answer ?
In europe cannot find the sunwaytek sg-n30 , no even on ebay.
Any alternative ?
Thanks in advance.
