STEP 4 - Pairing Directly Via USB Cable!

What you need:
  1. Your Android 3.1+ Device with a USB Port.
  2. A Playstation Controller USB Cable.
  3. Your Sixaxis Controller.
Open the 'Sixaxis Compatibility Checker'. Remember to check that the Local Bluetooth Address is still shown at the bottom of the screen:


Connect your Controller to your tablet or phone with the standard Playstation Controller USB cable. I am using the Asus Transformer Prime in this example, so the USB Port is on the Keyboard Dock.


Then click the 'Pair Controller' button in the Sixaxis Compatibility Checker and then click 'Pair':


You should get the the following message, just click OK:


You should then get the following message in the Sixaxis Compatibility Checker confirming that the 'Master Address Updated'.

And  now for the final test... Unplug your controller from your tablet. Hit the 'Start' button in the Sixaxis Compatibility Checker, you should get the following message: 


Now press the 'Power' button on your Playstation Controller. You should get the following message:


You should also see this message in the Sixaxis Compatibility Checker:


And thats it folks! Your Playstation Sixaxis Controller is now paired with your device! You can now head over to the Android Market to buy the Sixaxis Controller App!

You can skip Step 5. And go directly to Step 6 - Creating a Touch Screen Profile!  

Happy Days! :-)
