Motion Joy, you can connect your ps3 controller to your pc, and manually set the BT address it will connect to (your phone's BT address in this case).

After that, you should only need to turn on BT on the phone, and press the PS button... at least that's how it works in Android with the Sixaxis app.

As far as the mod goes, cool . I believe the phonejoy peeps were attempting something similar some months ago, but it seems they never got around to releasing it.

Apparently the android one works on S3 by using a miniusb adaptor to synch the pad first time, directly to the S3.

Are you saying that PC's laptops without BT built in can connect to PS3 pad and use Sixpair and the usb cable to get the BT address?

Yeah, that's how I set mine - connect the controller to the PC and change the bluetooth address on it to match your phone.

My USB OTG cable was at my mum's house or I'd have used that instead.



@mikhael I tried streaming an episode of Community in 720p but it was really crappy, no sound and picture was a mess. The same episode worked fine when copied directly onto the phone. Could possible get it working better but I'd rather watch stuff on my TV, the novelty of watching videos on my phone wore off after watching Robocop on my old Nokia N73.

AWESOME!... now all I need is an app that supports PS3 controllers on iPhone...

I meant connect the controller to the PC, not PS3

Yeah connect the Ps3 controller to PC, use the tool to get/change the BT address of the controller, then connect your phone/tablet to the BT address you got/created.

Got it

What is the cable in the bottom picture called? I've been trying to looking for something like that but couldn't find it

Yeah, no BT necessary on the PC as it will really only be used to change the BT address the controller is paired to, so yeah all you have to do now is find out about an app that will allow you to actually use the controller... which I'm sorry to say I can't help you with since I've never owned an IOS device.
