I’m having an issue with my gaming controller - [Cosmic Byte Quantum](https://www.thecosmicbyte.com/product/cosmic-byte-quantum-dual-mode-bluetooth-wired-controller-for-ps4-pc-ios-android-switch-hall-effect-triggers-and-joystick/) and was hoping someone could help. Here’s the situation: - **Device Setup**: I have [Cosmic Byte Quantum](https://www.thecosmicbyte.com/product/cosmic-byte-quantum-dual-mode-bluetooth-wired-controller-for-ps4-pc-ios-android-switch-hall-effect-triggers-and-joystick/) gaming controller that I connect to my Samsung Galaxy Tab S8+ using Bluetooth. - **Problem**: The gyroscope on the controller doesn’t seem to be working when connected via Bluetooth. Checked it using [Game controller tester App](https://powgames.itch.io/game-controller-tester) - **Observation/Temporary Fix**: When I connect the controller to my tablet via USB, the gyroscope works perfectly. - **Interesting Observation**: If I connect the same controller to my iPhone via Bluetooth, the gyroscope functions correctly without any issues. Given this, I have a few questions: 1. **Why does the gyroscope work via USB but not Bluetooth on my Android tablet?** - Is there a compatibility issue between Android and the controller’s Bluetooth connection? - Could it be a problem with how Android handles Bluetooth devices versus how iOS does? 2. **Why does the gyroscope work over Bluetooth on my iPhone but not on my Samsung Galaxy Tab S8+?** - Does iOS have better support for Bluetooth gyroscope functionality? 3. **What can be done to solve this issue?** - Are there any settings or apps on Android that I can tweak to fix the gyroscope issue? - Can I root the tab and tweak something to fix this? - Any other alternates, like buying a [USB Dongle](https://www.thecosmicbyte.com/product/cosmic-byte-stratos-xenon-gamepad-dongle-for-pc-gamepad-not-included-black/) for the controller can fix this? Any insights, suggestions, or solutions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance for your help! What did I try: - Tried updating the firmware of the controller - Tried using other apps/games to test Gyro - Tried other Android devices Expectation: - Get the gyro from the controller working so as to play games like asphalt8 and others using the Controller's Gyroscope
