Android devices are powerful enough to enjoy some 3D and actions games, they are just missing some cool joysticks for maximal control. Thanks to sleepless ninja on xda-developers.com and deadhp1 on armtvtech.com forum we now have a kernel module to support the XBOX 360 controller for Android and RK3066 based devices.
We have made an ArcTools package with this module for easy installation. This first version is built to work on RK3066 based devices, we should also add support for other devices such as RK2918 based tablets in the near future. The instructions shown in this article were successfully tested on the MK808 Mini PC and the Cube U30GT-MINI 7″ tablet.

I also have the SuperSU app installed by the way, I’m a noob so bare with me.

Have you testing on Gen9 ?
I have successfully instaled arctools on my mk808 and my xbox 360 controller is working fine. I am able to navigate the menus but I am not able to play any games with my controller.
I tried plants vs zombies and also NFS Most Wanted but I am only able to go to the Pause Menu and back on both the games nothing else works..
IS there any other setting I need to do launching the game?
