PS3 (Shenzhen Senze) controller
-
I can´t get the controller to work on my Pi 3B, latest retropie installed. Model number on controller SZ-902B. Tried to install all of the different drivers one by one, uninstalling previous one before installing next. Can´t even get connection via USB cable.

"latest Retropie" isn't useful. Latest image ? Or Latest source or image, then updated etc. Please provide a version number as displayed in retropie-setup
-
V4.0.2 from this website. Tried updating did not help (source/kernel).
-
Update the RetroPie-Setup script from the main RetroPie-Setup menu. Then remove the ps3 driver from Manage Packages -> drivers > ps3 controller - then reinstall. It will build the non clone driver, but then go to configuration and you can switch to the right one.
This was fixed after 4.0.2
-
Tried it, did not work. Will try the controller on a PS3 to see if it connects at all.

Controller works on a PS3.
-
Tried to pair a official PS3 controller, that doestn´t work either. Don´t know what I´m doing wrong, as I am following the tutorials
-
Don't know what to advise. You have updated RetroPie-Setup ? What version does it say ?
Did you remove the driver first ? Please can you go through the steps you took in detail.
Let's start with the official ps3 controller first.
-
The official controller. Update script, there was no PS3 drivers installed only the Xpad, so I installed PS3, removed it, installed again. When I plug in the controller nothing happens, no lights. Unplug press "PS" all flashing rapidly for a while, then nothing. Now I can not remove the PS3 driver.
-
What version does RetroPie-Setup say it is ?
-
Sorry forgot that :) 4.0.4
-
What happens when you try to remove ? How long did you wait ?
Please can you ssh in (https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/ssh) and post the output from
sudo ~/RetroPie-Setup/retropie_packages.sh ps3controller remove -
@BuZz Will do. stand by.
The screen pops up a bit in the lower end, says removing. I´ve waited for about 2 minutes. Will try waiting while I install the ssh -
I can reproduce that problem - looks like the service doesn't like stopping sometimes. I'm looking into it. If you reboot can you remove it ?
-
@BuZz Yes, worked now. I will do the ssh stuff now

if you removed it - try reinstalling and when go to configure / and pair. I'm testing here. I don't have a fix for the remove freeze yet, but seems to happen only sometimes and a reboot helps. I think the initialisation scripts need redoing, but I was able to pair my ps3 controller last time I tried.
-
That ssh command just removes it - which you already did :-)
-
@BuZz Reinstalled, went to pair. Plug in, no light (waited 20 sec) unplugged and pressed ps button, all lights flash and no pairing

I will get back to you after some debugging.
