I've recently setup GrapheneOS on my Pixel 6a. I tried to connect my PS4 controller via Bluetooth (https://www.lifewire.com/connect-ps4-controller-to-android-5093966). It says it is connected but doesn't work. For context, I'm trying to connect it to use with a N64 emulator play games.

Has anyone else had this issue? Is this specific to GrapheneOS? Any possible workarounds?

    dba has it worked with other Android devices before?

      nodsocket I've tested it with my computer, an iPhone X and a Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4. All of them work when I test them on https://gamepadtester.net/. It says no device connected though on the Pixel6a with GrapheneOS.

        dba If you have any other controllers to try, that could help determine if the problem is the OS or the controller. I just tested my usb Logitech controller with my Pixel 6 and it works on the website you linked.

        I'm having same problem on a Pixel 6a. I've flashed pixel 6a with GrapheneOS and PS4 Controller would connect from what I could see using bluetooth but uppon starting steam link or geforce now none of the buttons worked. Tried a few other apps just to test controller but none could detect any buttons pressed.

        Flashed it back to stock and PS4 controller worked as expected both using steam link and geforce now. No problems at all.

        Re-installed Graphene OS and same problem again, it connects but no input detected. I can see that it's connected as on a controller it self there is a light blinking when in pairing mode, but once paired the light stays lit.
