Comment on Are there any Android controllers with split D-pads?

How can I get them to pair with Android?

I don’t know much about it, but it looks like something specific is required ti pair controllers with an Android phone. I can pair them just fine with my PC.

I’m mostly asking out of curiosity; a regular Playstation controller isn’t able to hold the phone.

You need to hold the PS button and select (I’ll never stop calling it that) until the LED starts flashing, then it’ll be in pairing mode.

You can buy phone mounts for PlayStation controllers. It’d definitely be cheaper than a whole new controller.

  Thanks a ton for explaining this for me. I tried it out and it worked like a charm.
  
  Now I will look for phone mounts.

Hold Home and Screenshot until it turns on and starts flashing then pair it on your phone

It’s been like more than a decade but there was some script I used to mod a PS3 controller (via USB) to connect to generic Bluetooth devices. They use Bluetooth, it’s just something specific value that needed tweaked.
