Sixaxis Enabler is an innovative application that facilitates the use of wired Sixaxis Controller/PS3 DualShock with compatible devices. The application requires a connection cable and an Android device with USB-Host support.

Efficient Controller Pairing

Sixaxis Enabler enables efficient controller pairing, although the process is not as simple as merely connecting the two devices. It requires some setup and preparation to ensure successful pairing. Once the controller is enabled, it can be used to play games on your mobile device, and to map tools that support the native controller. The application allows you to connect your controller to your phone without the need for rooting. However, if your device is rooted, it can also be used. For non-rooted devices, it's crucial to have the appropriate firmware support for the controller.

App Configuration

For rooted devices, it is essential to verify the compatibility of your controller with the Sixaxis Enabler application. You can prepare the application using the Sixaxis PC tool, which is accessible from the official site of the developer. Once the tool is installed on your computer, you should run the program as an administrator. The program presents a dialog box with your master controller’s Bluetooth address, and an option to modify the master device. You should enter the Bluetooth address of your phone in the box provided, and proceed. The program will then install the necessary drivers for your controller.
