How to connect a ps3 controller to a samsung galaxy tab 10.1?

Q. I wanna use onlive to the full but i need to connect a controller, how can i do this? Btw i do not want to root my device to do this :-!

A. Simple but tricky, I need 10 point :)

1. Download Sixaxis Controller from the Android Market.
2. Now download and install SixaxisPairTool. It is a PC utility that will be used to pair the PS3 controller with your phone.
Alternatively, you can also use âMotionInJoyâ for Windows or use a utility called âsixpairâ for Linux.
3. Connect the PS3 controller to your PC with its mini-USB cable, and switch on the power with the PS button.
4. Start the SixaxisPairTool program in your PC. It will install the required drivers for the PS3 controller.
5. Turn on bluetooth on your Android phone.
6. Go to the Sixaxis Controller app in your phone and tap on the âStartâ button for bluetooth server to initiate.If you get an âError: Missing required protocolâ message, your device is not supported.
7. Now go to âSettings > Language & keyboardâ in your phone and check âSixaxis Controllerâ box.
8. If the connection is established in Sixaxis Controller app, you should now pair your controller with your Android phone.
9. Your phoneâs bluetooth address is shown at the bottom of the main Sixaxis Controller app window and will look something like 1A:3C:13:00:21:C2 â Enter this number in the âChange Master:â text box in the Sixaxis Pair Tool program in your PC and click âUpdateâ.
This process only needs to be done the first time a controller is used on a different device, so if you only use the controller on one phone, you will only need to do it once.
10. Your âCurrent Masterâ and âChange Masterâ values should be the same now. This means your PS3 controller and phone are paired!
11. On your phone, in the Sixaxis Controller app, tab the âChange Input Methodâ button and select âSixaxis Controllerâ.
12. Unplug the PS3 controller from the mini-USB cable and the blinking red lights on the controller should stop now. Now press the PS button on the controller to switch it on.
13. A single red light will stay on now and on your phone in the Sixaxis Controller app, you will see âClient connected: 1â³.
14. Thatâs it! The PS3 controller is now connected and works with your Android device!
15. To change button functions or map different keys, go to âPreferencesâ of the Sixaxis Controller app on your phone.

Enjoy ^ ^

What tablet do you think i should buy?
Q. Well i been thinking about buying a tablet because having a smart phone is nice but sometimes i need a bigger screen and nothing beat the power of laptop but sometimes i don't need all that power to bring with me i think by having a tablet it can be a substitute instead of bringing my laptop. Just for quick things like web email maybe taking notes in class plus i get media benefits my games movie music etc on a tablet. The problem is there are so many good tablets out there i narrowed it to three choices Google Nexus 10, Samsung Galaxy 10.1, & iPad. I have an iphone and mbp and said i might as well get the ipad since i know what apple already brings to the table but looking at the features i saw on the other two maybe it time for a change an see what android brings to the table. If you were in my shoes what would you do i love long explanations and persuasive thoughts so go all out thanks for reading and answering

A. get the Microsoft surface RT
it really is an amazing tablet
it has a 10.6" screen with very good and high resolution
colors look clear and sharp on it
the tablet build quality is amazing
it feels perfect and its made from solid materials
the os on the tablet which is windows 8 is also amazing
its fast and fluid and also simple and easy to use
its made with touch in mind
the web browser is extremely good its fast and pages load up quickly
and it supports flash which is a huge plus and which is something that is lacking on most android tablets and all ios tablets
battery life is very good and would easily get you through more than 10 hours of heavy use
you can download apps from the windows marketplace which has many high quality apps
thousands of apps are being added everyday
more than 2000 apps were added in less than 2 days
it does have more than 25000 apps now and like I said it will keep on increasing
it has dual cameras and both of them take amazing photos and videos
it has deep social network integration(skype,facebook,twitter,linke⦠and so on)
you also get Microsoft office 2013 for free on it
and if you get the keyboard and attach it to it you'll have a laptop
overall the surface is an amazing tablet and you should get it
hope i helped :)
tell me if you decided to
and if you got any question or need any help you can email me at spieleranswers@outlook.com

what is the difference between a tablet and a laptop? what kind of tablet should i get?
Q. im looking at different kinds currently, and am not sure what i should ge. i am looking at the nexus 10, and the asus eee pad transformers prime. im also looking at the hybrid asus transformer 300. which should i get? im also looking at just a kindle but am not sure.
i want to use my tablet to get on the internet, read, and chacked y facebook and such. i also want easy acess to the internet and youtube, along with the best visual effects. i don't want a foggy screen. i would like it to have a camera and would not like a plastic covering, i want metal, or metallic. however i refer to it. i would like the price to be lower, th elower it is the better, because i do have limited spending options....
i would also like to know the good and bad to each tablet option, and am also open to more options, whatver you reccomend for me. please give me good ideas, i want to get the best deal.
i also want to be able to upload my music onto it

A. I would definitely recommend just getting a tablet because for your needs a tablet can do that perfectly. A tablet is more for surfing the web, reading books, music, and watching videos. A laptop is more for getting serious work done.
Out of those choices I would either go with the Nexus 10 or the Asus transformer 300. Another good option that you didn't write down but is still a good tablet is the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1, and that one comes with a stylus.
Nexus 10- Pros: Very fast, best-in-class, made by samsung but distributed by google so quick and timely updates. Cons: Ok build quality, 7 hour battery life

Asus Transformer 300- Pros: You can buy the keyboard that has a separate battery in it, good build quality. Cons: Gets scratched really easily, and has a lot of performance hiccups

Kindle- Pros: Amazons ecosystem, good battery life Cons: You don't get the real android experience because of Amazon.

Out of those, without a doubt, I would recommend the Nexus 10
