RetroArch Android devices
#241

I just discovered that the steel case free controler has better support on ver.RetroArch-armv7-v1.0.0.0-r26.apk I have full joystick support on this ver but not the more recent releases? In fact, joystick support seems to be better on this version for all controllers. Also, final burn alpha core has been dropped in the latest releases but is still present in RetroArch-armv7-v1.0.0.0-r26.apk.

Is this an oversight that hasn’t been identified yet? Seems we have lost functionality in the recent update releases.

#242

Yeah, there’s been some work on input that broke some of the controllers. There’s going to be a full input rework for Android soon that should get it more stable/consistent and allow for mapping via RGUI, like on other platforms.

The missing FBA core was a result of a build error and we just haven’t gotten around to pushing out an update that has yet. We should probably take care of that sometime soon…

#243

The android input driver is due a refactor that should fix all these issues. It might be in there for the next version. FBA missing was an oversight.

#244

Thank you for the reply :slight_smile: and many, many thanks for you devoting your time to this project! Cheers!

trying to play with a PS4 controller on Android. pairing the controller with my phone via Bluetooth worked by holding the PS and Share button, and selecting the controller in the Android bluetooth settings.

navigating between apps in Android homescreen already works using the controller arrow keys. in RetroArch, arrow keys also seem to work, but other keys do not.

adb logcat gives me the following:

XBOX 360 WIRELESS CONTROLLER (THROUGH USB WIRELESS RECEIVER) (not using IME) results are different for analog controls and digital.

Somone allready asked for the xbox wireless controller support, but i had differente results I got some buttons responding, but neither the d-pad or analog pad responds.

BUTTONS ARE: (digital) Pad 0 : xx, ac = x, src 1281

D-PAD: UP, LEFT, RIGHT, DOWN: all the same results: Pad 0 :0 , ac = 0, src = 1281 (ac=0 when pressed, and ac=1 when not pressed)

BUTTONS (in all cases ac=0 when pressed and ac=1 when released)

A : Pad 0: 96 ac=0, src = 1281 B : Pad 0: 97 ac=0, src = 1281 X : Pad 0: 99 ac=0, src = 1281 Y : Pad 0: 100 ac=0, src = 1281 START : Pad 0: 108 ac=0, src = 1281 BACK : Pad 0: 109 ac=0, src = 1281 L1 : Pad 0: 102 ac=0, src = 1281 R1 : Pad 0: 103 ac=0, src = 1281 L3 : Pad 0: 106 ac=0, src = 1281 R3 : Pad 0: 107 ac=0, src = 1281

LEFT ANALOG PAD AND LEFT AND RIGHT TRIGGERS

This show a combination of codes no the screen: Pad 0 : x x.xx, y x.xx, z x.xx, rz x.xx

The values for “x & y” are used for the left analog pad: UP: Pad 0 : x -0.00, y -1.00 DOWN: Pad 0 : x -0.00, y 1.00 LEFT: Pad 0 : x -1.00, y 0.00 RIGHT: Pad 0 : x 1.00, y 0.00

The values for “z” is used for the left trigger and the values for “rz” are used for the right trigger

Left trigger Un-Pressed: Pad 0 : x 0.00, y 0.00, z -1.00, rz -1.00 Left trigger Pressed: Pad 0 : x 0.00, y 0.00, z 1.00, rz -1.00

Right trigger Un-Pressed: Pad 0 : x 0.00, y 0.00, z -1.00, rz 1.00 Right trigger Pressed: Pad 0 : x 0.00, y 0.00, z -1.00, rz -1.00

RIGHT ANALOG: when pressed i can see text on screen, but it seems that doesnt fits the results

Thank you…

http://www.xgaming.com/support/question … OS+Support http://www.mayflash.com/Products/iPhoneiPad/AD001.html Mayflash Brand PS2 wireless adapter for android, ios and PC PS2 Controller Bluetooth Adapter for Android & iOS

Bought two of these adapters in hopes of getting my Xarcade dual stick to work wirelessly with retroarch 2 players simultaneously and not dice! Only one stick works. :frowning:

Just thought I’d share the news as I’m sure lots of xarcade owners are wondering and I share here in hopes retroarch developers may be able to come up with a solution, so that we can have an xarcade dual stick work wirelessly on android retroarch. I would assume though to do it the retroarch program wou have to independently manage bluetooth device input.

I just got the nvidia shield tablet and the new controller. Are controllers still added using this thread? If they are I’ll upload the button press info. I don’t want to go through the trouble if controllers are going to be added differently in future releases though.

#251

Looks like the Shield tablet controller already works. Must be the same setup as the Shield portable which is cool.

#252

Nice :smiley:

That’s good to know!

#253

Will the original moga be supported in v1.1(the upcoming release)

Hi guys

I play with Minix Neo X7 and my setup is as follows:

Controller 1: T-Wireless Black - Thrustmaster, is detected as T Mini Wirless is works very well on the SNES or Megadrive console emulators, but I have problem with MAME 2003 and 2010 .

For example cadillac dinosaur or Asterix KONAMI, not i can start the game I have only one button for a menu and the directional pad works !

the button does not work in M.A.M.E : input_b_btn = “b” input_y_btn = “c” input_select_btn = “L2” input_start_btn = “R2” input_a_btn = “a” input_x_btn = “x” input_l_btn = “L1” input_r_btn = “R1” input_l2_btn = “y” input_r2_btn = “z”

Controller 2: Saitek P380 Dual Analog is detected as Jess Tech Dual Analog Pad, here I have the directional button and dual analog works

the button not work are the following: input_b_btn = “3” input_y_btn = “1” input_select_btn = “9” input_start_btn = “10” input_a_btn = “4” input_x_btn = “2” input_l_btn = “5” input_r_btn = “7” input_l2_btn = “6” input_r2_btn = “8”

I notice that the Saitek P480 Dual Analog is suported by RetroArch.

Thank you in advance for your help and wonderful emulator

#255

hi, for me wireless controller is dectected as portable shield but autoremapping not working for me, have to reconfigure all keys. also in source code shield joypad seem to be forced to be port 0 which is bad for shield tablet , as we can hook like to 4 wireless controllers.

ps: i assume you are the same shifted in gforce forum ?

#257

This is a config I tryed to make in a few minutes. Please test. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5HuG10h5HbncVRobGlWcVV5ZzA/edit?usp=sharing This is for the moga hero power.

#258

Hello guys, I just wanted to play with my Icade and retroarch and I have seen in the release notes that it’s supported. But I can’t play and don’t understand how it’s work. Should I post the requested sentences ? Or is there something I do badly ? I try to autodetect with all the profile (not working) and to configure manually the input (not working great). Thanks in advance

#259

I noticed that the Phonejoy wasn’t supported as a controller in the latest version off the Google Play store. I’ve pulled the information needed for the button mappings. Manual configuration will work but the analog sticks aren’t working with that so I was hoping autodetection would could be added for it. Let me know any way I can help. When this is added will it show up on the weekly builds section or just keep on updating from the play store?

I have a red samurai & the auto configuration does not read it. So I have to use a custom bind for it to read, the analog sticks do not work at all. I don’t know if I need to install a custom IME or what should i do.
