To do this, we need the Sixaxis Controller (
savagemessiahzine.com,
Google play) (I use this program, as, in my opinion, the most convenient, but there are alternatives). Initially, you need to check the compatibility of your device with a gamepad. This will help us free program
Sixaxis Compatibility Checker. To check compatibility, you first need to enter the MAC address of your device into the Bluetooth gamepad. This is done quite simply: open the Sixaxis Compatibility Checker and click Start (the program will ask for root privileges) - a window will pop up with a brief instruction and a Bluetooth MAC address.

Also, the MAC address can be seen at the very bottom of the program window. Download and install the program.
SixaxisPairTool, connect the gamepad to the computer with a mini-USB cable and open the SixaxisPairTool (to avoid problems, it is advisable to open as administrator). The drivers should be installed, and a PLAYSTATIONВ®3 Controller device will appear in the device manager:
Type in your MAC address in the program and click Update. That's it, now the gamepad and your Android will recognize each other.
Another way to write the MAC address to the gamepad (suitable only for devices with the OTG function): just connect the gamepad to the device with a cable and in the Sixaxis Controller program click the "Pair Controller" button.

So, you have a gamepad, you have checked compatibility with your device - everything is fine. How now to connect the gamepad and start playing?
1) Install the Sixaxis Controller (I advise you to purchase it in the market - it is worth the money). The program prompts you to enter the “Language and Input” settings. Agree and tick "Sixaxis Controller" (a warning will pop up - click OK).
2) Return to the program and click Start. The program will request superuser rights and go into controller search mode.
3) Press the center button on your gamepad (turn on the gamepad).
4) In case of successful connection on the gamepad, the LED indicating the controller number will light up, and the Sixaxis Controller will notify you of the connection of the client and display the status of its battery.
If the program writes Connection Failed - your device is not supported.
5)
Important! Go to the settings of the Sixaxis Controller. In the settings, select Gamepad Settings, and tick the box next to Enable Gamepad. This will allow game console emulator programs and some games to know that you will play through the gamepad.
6) Start the game :)
7) After you have finished playing, do not forget to press Stop in the program (this will stop the connection between the gamepad and the device and turn off the gamepad).
If you want to connect the joystick and then reconnect to the console, it will be enough to connect it with a cord to the PS3 and turn on the console first, then the gamepad, they will grab themselves.
For games, I use the original gamepad CECHZC2
