      There seems to be a lot of problems with these Shanwan PS3 clones. I've followed this guide and managed to get one controller connected at a time, but never both together - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/42/shanwan-ps3-controller-pi3-retropie-3-6-bluetooth-setup

      Another problem is that whenever the controllers are connected via USB they won't stop vibrating, which pretty much makes these controllers useless as most of us need to charge them via the Pi's usb ports.

      So I have 3 questions...

      1. How did others manage to get 2 of these controllers connected at a time?
      2. Is there a way to pair these controllers without going to terminal and typing sudo ./sixpair
      3. Is there a command that can be run at boot to prevent the controllers from vibrating when USB is connected?

      If someone can figure these out I am willing to pay you for your time as I am tearing my hair out! :)

        Same thing here. I can't get it to stop vibrating when connected over USB. If I don't find a solution soon, I'm going to throw it out a window and buy a genuine.
