I've tried connecting a wired X-Plorer, a wireless Les Paul with an unofficial wireless dongle, and an Xbox One controller (tried wired and wireless with the official dongle) to my phone with 2 different USB OTG cables, one cheap one off ebay, and one that came with the Samsung Galaxy S7 I think.
For the wired controllers, the green circle just keeps blinking, never getting a player number, and for the dongles, the 360 one just keeps blinking its green light, and the xbox one dongle doesn't light up at all.
I've tried copying the default controller keymaps and renaming them to the correct vendor id and product id, with no luck.
I'm pretty sure I've used at least the xbox one controller on this phone before, so I have no idea why it won't work now.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Seems like Java throws an error when inserting an xbox controller, invalid number for field product-id, 03ea. It's trying to invoke parseInt on that id, so that obviously won't work.

Ive upgraded sucessfully to 3.1 and thuoght that xbox 360 controllers are ment to work. not managed so far - does any one know how to get them to work ive tried wired and wireless ones.
i take it no one has then?
Its strange seeing as there are some reviews coming out with the xoom on 3.1 getting to use xbox 360 contollers.
Do you have the dock? I've seen reports of people not having luck getting it to work that upgraded to 3.1 but no mention if they are using the dock or the female to female usb adapter method that is floating around.
Also the update that is floating around is not the OTA one so it may not be complete.
yeah i do have the dock... hope the ota update has the drivers for xbox controllers. would be awesome!
After updating to 3.1 I tried plugging in my usb gamepad to the dock, and loaded up Snes9x. Tried remapping the keys to the gamepad and it would say the keys were mapped to "none" no matter what button I pushed on the controller. The TF definitely knew that there was a gamepad plugged in, but it seemed like it didn't know how to map it correctly. So I tried playing Cordy like they did when they showed off 3.1, and all the buttons on the gamepad would make me run and jump to the right. So from what I can tell, it does register that there is a usb device plugged in and working, but it just won't map the buttons correctly . I don't have a wired 360 controller to try out, but I tried plugging in my PlayStation 2 controller with a usb adapter, and the TF wouldn't even register any of the button presses.
I tried a ps3 compatible pad this morning with n64oid and it worked once I mapped the controls. Didn't have time to really test thoroughly but seems to work on the leaked 3.1. This tweet from asusuk seems to confirm it for the official 3.1
@AsusUK Eee Pad Transformer with Android 3.1 supports XBOX 360 & Playstation controllers. UK FOTA Wed am.

Tested it on ps3 controllers, worked fine.
xbox 360 didn't work for me
How are these being hooked up through dock or some other means
Sent from my captivate BLAZING on firefly 3.0
Is this only possible for people who have the dock? Does it have to be via cable??
Thanks guys!
Only docks.
I mean the tablet doesn't even have any USB ports.
Any way to pair it via Bluetooth, or maybe get it to connect through the asus propriety cable?
Doubt it. Xbox 360 controllers don't use blue tooth to connect to the console. The asus cable would have to be modified somehow an you would lose a cable most likely.
asus PR fail?
i got the OTA 3.1 update here in the US yesterday. when i plug my usb 360 controller into my dock, the ring of lights continuously blinks. the controller does not seem to register with cordy or with any emulators i've tried. i think the origional (mis)information that this would work came from the AsusUK twitter account.
can anyone in the UK confirm that this doesn't work for them?
After the 3.1 update i plugged in my old logitech pc controller and fired up snesnoid and everything works perfectly.
Unfortunately you are equating 'supported' with 'devs have created apps that now work' with said support. The gamepads will work as long as the apps have been updated to use the newer code.
All I've tried so far has been an old PS1 controller plugged in via a cheapo usb pc adapter and it worked flawlessly in fpse. Oddly enough it was even letting me control the home screens in android as well. Although the button mapping was all off for that trial.
then it seems logical that we call a controller 'supported' by android if it can switch homescreens. if an app is coded in such a way as to support the controller then we can call it 'supported' by that app and the controller becomes useful. i believe the generic key mapping features of most emulators are good enough and should work for the 360 controller, that is if the OS can recognize it. i'd wager that if a USB controller can not switch homescreens then it will be impossible for an app to make use of it.
both google and asus advertise that the 360 controller should work on the transformer after the 3.1 upgrade. mine can not switch home screens or do anything else at all besides annoyingly blink its lights.
i think my 360 controller not working is a bug and that makes me sad.
i would very much like to be proved wrong here.
I'm using a USB female to female adapter w/ this and it will not work for the life of me. Maybe the adapter is bad but it will not connect to this for nothing.
Note: Using XBOX360 Controller
has anyone tried connecting it trough a usb hub?
I got XBox 360 controller with USB which work fine on PC but doesn't work with my Transformer under Android 3.1
It seems Google forgot the XBox 360 drivers :s
Nobody on this thread manage to got the XBox 360 working ?

Can you look at the back of your controller and tell me the model? I've got a emulator list with controllers that are working I would like to add it to. Check the DIY link in my signature.
so i have the multimedia dock, and unlike most other phones the atrix has USB host support, hence why we can plug in stuff like usb drives with fat32 partitions. However i've tried connecting a walmart xbox controller via usb to the multimedia dock since I need a USB port to plug into and nothing. No response, ie no buttons work no nothing.
I've also plugged in random keyboard like dell, and they work fine, hell even wireless mice over usb work fine, and provide a cursor on the home screen.
I'm mostly starting this topic because with the new Onlive system they have their own controler and I don't see what i'm missing.
Do I really need to buy a ps2 controller and connect via BT and do i need special software and can i use it like a mouse?

you can plug a ps3 controller in with the usb cable and use this app from the market.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller&hl=en
or you can also use a wii controller.

Both are Bluetooth compatable. And there's an app that connects them to the atrix

EDIT /This is the app I mentioned sorry for the 2nd post
What if you have a wireless xbox 360 controller, the wireless base, and a micro usb to usb a female cord to plug it all in. I get no detection. Any fix?
thanks
There is no USB driver for the Xbox 360 controller in the Atrix. In order to support it, someone needs to develop a USB driver for the Android platform for the Xbox 360 controller.
an xbox 360 wireless receiver could be connected to any device. we just need drivers. if linux drivers exist they "could" be ported.

How do they work on android tablets. There are quite a lot of videos of android tabs connecting with the xbox 360 sensor.
thanks
The Atrix needs power incoming through the USB port to enable host-mode (at least, in the stock roms; I've heard it said that this might not be necessary in android 3.0 and newer, but I have no idea.)
What this means is that nothing you plug in will work unless going through one of the docks or via an externally powered USB hub that also sends voltage back upstream. If you want to test this, try plugging in a flash drive.
(EDIT: This is directed to 1chris89, not OP, sorry.)

I've seen u have to bridge and solder the pins on the hub to get it to work? I have a 4 port usb 1.1 hub I could test it on. Otherwise is a ps3 blue tooth controller the most ideal way to use a controller on our phones?
thanks
Well, there is actually a really cheaply made hub on Dealextreme.com that does this by accident, which is what I used before I got my laptop dock.
Here's the thread on it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=997187
I use both the Wiimote and a PS3 controller on mine; it just depends on which games I'm playing.
The Wiimote is easier to set up (and there are a few free apps that work just fine) while the Sixaxis Controller app is paid, and requires configuring the controller on your computer first (manually setting your phone's bluetooth address to the controller).
SOLUTION
I have a true solution to this problem. An Ice Cream Sandwich should do the trick; the tablets you guys have seen using xbox 360 controllers are honeycomb, an os with baked in game controller support since I believe 3.1
We have a solution though in the form of convergence. 4.00 being both honeycomb and an evolution of 2.3. Try this again with a wireless controller adaptor plugged in and running CM9!!! Should have native support...

i flashed to cm9, plugged it into my laptop dock and plugged in my 360 wireless receiver and its a no-go. the receiver just keeps blinking like it did on cm7. lets hear some other suggestions, im ready to try anything
solution
The only solution to this is HD multimedia dock + Xbox controller in usb + xpad.ko in system libs ( we need one compiled for kernel being used) . if anyone can attempt compiling of this module for android 4.2.1 many people shall appreciate it. SGS3 already have this module compiled so it is possible to port over
Just plugged in my "xbox wireless receiver for windows" and bam! Xbox 360 controller connected right up and works..... seems like the R2+L2 axis is swapped with the Right Stick axis, but I found it interesting that the receiver just popped right on. Maybe one of the devs could remap? Doesn't show up in attached accessories. Note: This is the original white OEM receiver for the 360... Unsure about the black receiver for 360 or the new one for the Xbox one...
Hey guys
Quick question, has anyone managed to pair DualShock 4 or wired 360 controller? When I put the DS4 in pairing mode I can see it on the list of available Bluetooth devices but when I tap to pair it says pairing and nothing happens. After a while DS4 turns itself off. When I'm trying to use Type C OTG to micro USB to connect it via wire nothing happens at all. Same case with 360 controller and type C OTG adapter. I've used two different type C adapters and nothing. They work fine with pendrives
I think its down to drivers, the xbox controller doesn't work but i thought the DS4 works?
I have the same problem exactly, keeps on pairing but never finishes, tried resetting the dualshock, searching the web, nothing.
Still no fix for this?
I reached out to both huawei and Sony and the first ones said they can't give me any info and the latter did not respond at all.
I am so mad I can't set up my Xbox 360 controller so I bought this one and it works on all the games, there is no compatibility issue.
CamRom Game Clutch Universal Grip Support 4.5~6.5 inch smartphone (Red) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071JKLY4J/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_MYAKAbHBN6X1P
Any news or fixes? Do I need my Mate 10 to be rooted? Im still stuck at pairing. :3
The controller works on LG Q6 and ZenFone 2. Still doesn't work well with Mate 10. Do I have to wait on a firmware patch or what.
Bump. Maybe someone here knows the answer.
Bumpinnnn
The only solution I could found was listed at OnePlus Forum. An user said the Ds4 worked perfectly on his OnePlus 3T only by using the Bluetooth Adapter sold by Sony. You plug an OTG adapter on your phone then plug the bluetooth adapter at the OTG Adapter.
Using ds4 on p20 lite via type c OTG without any issues. Im able to pair it via bluetooth but it doesnt accept any inputs from the buttons.
I'm trying to connect an Xbox One Controller (Elite v1 without bluetooth) to my M5. It just won't work. I'm using a micro usb to type A and a type A to Type C adapter that came with my Samsung S10.
The same cable and Controller works fine on my S10, but the M5 won't detect the controller. Does anyone know how to get this to work on the M5?
So I got my hands on a new Xbox controller with Bluetooth. There is no way to pair this to Huawei devices. It's as if the Bluetooth stack is blocking it. Works fine on my Samsung devices. Very frustrating.
