Hi all,
I bought a ps3 controller yesterday for play game on my sony z3.
I tried to pair them in order below:
+ Connect ps3 cable with OTG cable.
+ Open setting _ xperia connectivity_ dual shock series_ dual shock 3.
+ Connect OTG cable into z3.
But there is no operation in my phone. The "next" was not appear.
My phone is D6653, build 23.4.A.1.264. Unroot. It work when i tried with sony z2.

Hi @cesar2236, I understand how you feel.

It is possible to use a Dualshock 3 controller if you connect via USB using a USB OTG cabel. Is this something that you have already tried to do?

@cesar2236 I'm very sorry to hear that you feel that way. Slightly_frowning_Face

The Dualshock 3 driver has been removed from Android 6 so wireless connection is not available.
