Rooted firetv running ps4 remote play app with Bluetooth ps4 controller. Works really well:-). Note that you must have a Fire TV Gen 1 or Gen 2 device, not a Fire TV Stick, Fire TV (3 rd Gen), or Fire TV Edition, because only Fire TV (Gen 1 and Gen 2) have a port for the USB cable. If your Fire TV device doesn't offer a USB cable port, use the Network Connect option instead.

This is a new method of remote play for the Fire Stick that works thanks to a third-party app called PSPlay, in this video I take you through the steps to ge. Remote Play on Amazon Fire HD 8 (8th Gen), Dualshock4 Issues. So I've got the Google Play Store on to my Fire HD 8, and I got the PS4 Remote play app, both of which seem to work fine. The Dualshock4 controllers seem to connect via bluetooth fine, but the buttons on the controller don't seem to be reading on the tablet at all. The Amazon Fire TV Stick is a great little streaming solution to turn just about any TV set into a full-featured media station. As long as you have a good WiFi connection and a decent Internet speed, you can get access to a huge array of content for free and even more if you’re willing to pay a few dollars a month.
Amazon Fire TV game controllers (as well as other controllers that conform to the Bluetooth HID gamepad profile) have specific buttons, Android motion, and key event constants. Use this information to capture input events in your app.
For guidelines on button behavior for all supported controllers, see Controller Behavior Guidelines. For information on handling input for Fire TV remote controls, see Amazon Fire TV Remote Control Input.
Buttons
The current version of the Fire TV Game Controller has these buttons:
The previous version of the Game Controller has these buttons:
Capturing Input
Game controllers used with Amazon Fire TV generate Android KeyEvent events for digital button presses (such as the A button), and MotionEvent events for analog control movement (such as a joystick action).
You can handle simple button input with standard Android event listener interfaces and callbacks (onClick(), onFocusChange(), and so on).
To capture specific button press events in your View, override input event handlers such as onKeyDown().
Test for the input constants from the KeyEvent class to capture specific keys. For example, to capture a press from the A button, use this code:
To capture motion events, override the onGenericMotionEvent() event in your View. Use the input constants from the MotionEvent class to determine which control generated the movement, and the events in the MotionEvent class such as getAxisValue() to determine the values for the motion:
Primary and Secondary Input Events
Some game controller actions on Amazon Fire TV devices may raise more than one input event for a single action. For example, the D-Pad on the Amazon Fire Game Controller is an analog directional control (producing motion events), but a digital control on the Fire TV remote controls (producing key events).
Similarly, the selection action is the A button on a game controller, but it is the D-Pad center button on Fire TV remotes. Some game controller actions on Amazon Fire TV first raise a primary input event (usually a motion event). Then, if those events are not handled by your app, they raise a second input event (usually a key event). Both of the primary and secondary input events are listed in the Input Event Reference table below.
Secondary input events can help you simplify the process of handling game controller input. If your app is interested only in button and D-Pad events from a game controller, the secondary events enable you to ignore motion events altogether and only deal with key events.
Similarly, because the A button generates both KEYCODE_BUTTON_A and KEYCODE_DPAD_CENTER, if your app supports the center D-Pad button on the Fire TV remotes, you do not have to also test for the A button.
Note that your app may behave as if it is receiving double input if you do not properly handle the primary input events. Make sure your input event handlers return true if you have captured and handled an event. The secondary input event is not generated if the first has been captured.
Input Event Reference
The following table describes the motion and key event constants for each game controller button, the suggested user experience behavior for those buttons, and the default behavior of those buttons in the Amazon Fire TV user interface. Rekordbox dj macbook.
Digital buttons report key events (KeyEvent), and analog controls report motion events (MotionEvent). See (./fire-tv/controller-behavior-guidelines.html) for information on suggested behavior for controller input in your app.
The events listed in the Secondary Event column are raised in addition to the events in the MotionEvent or KeyEvent columns, if your app does not handle that primary event. See Primary and Secondary Input Events (above) for information on these secondary events.
In this table, a game is an app that was submitted to the Amazon Appstore in the games category and installed onto the device from the Amazon Appstore.

My favorite controller right now for both the is my Sony DualShock 4 PS4 Controller. The DualShock 4 (sometimes called DS4) Playstation 4 controller is a Bluetooth controller and works out of the box in a lot of scenarios. I use it for PC gaming and it works with SOME of the Fire ecosystem, but not all of it, and, unfortunately, the default button configuration doesn’t necessarily align with what you’d like. This can be corrected in rooted devices, but at present I’m going to avoid that side of life.
Can You Play Firestick On Ps4
I’m trying to nail down a good compatibility list for it at the moment and will update the post when I have.
Note that there are actually two versions of the DualShock 4, and I have the older of the 2, which is no longer available, while the links on this page go to the newer one. I’m not aware of any differences in compatibility between the two.
Fire Ecosystem Compatibility
The following devices I have personally tested:
Compatible:
Playstation Remote Play Amazon Fire
- 2015 Fire TV (2nd Gen)
- Fire OS v. 5.2.4.0 Reboot Fire TV before pairing
- Fire OS v. 5.2.6.1 Reboot Fire TV before pairing
Not Compatible, Won’t Pair:
Ps4 Remote Play Amazon Fire Stick
- 2014 Fire TV Stick (1st Gen)
- Fire OS v. 5.2.1.2
- Fire OS v. 5.2.6.1
Not Compatible, Wrong Keymap:
Ps4 Remote Play Download For Kindle Fire
- 2012 Kindle Fire HD 8.9
- 2013 Kindle Fire HDX 7
Suggestions? Corrections? Updates?
