IPEGA PG-9021: Reversed track control buttons for Next and Previous

Some buyers commented that the Next and Previous buttons on the PG-9021 were mislabeled, and that it should be the other way around.
I also thought similarly at first. But then I realized the confusion was due to the angled placement of the controls.

One could tilt the controller slightly towards the right and assume a horizontal layout of the buttons.

Pressing the second button from the left skips to the next track when it should go to the previous track.
This is counter-intuitive!

However, we could also assume a vertical orientation like this.

Now, this seems more logical; the second button from the bottom goes one track down from the list

PG-9021: New device supported

Besides the more common Samsung Galaxy S4s and Note 3s,
I've just sold a PG-9021 to an Oppo Find 7 user.
Pairing and connection was OK.
Volume controls were also working.
The buyer tested with Dead Trigger 2 and could play the game after mapping the controls.

Thank you for the support, bro!
Glad you like your purchase
It was my pleasure doing business with you.
First class buyer!

PG-9021: New game supported

Today a buyer bought a PG-9021 and tested it with his favourite game,
Modern Combat 5: Blackout which was launched just days ago.

He was a fan of the series since the earlier versions
and bought MC5 straightaway when it was launched.

High end games work well with high end phones for which he has an Xperia Z2.

After testing, he was satisfied the PG-9021 worked well with MC5 and bought a unit

PG-9021: New game supported

For those of you who are fans of classic arcade games,
you may like to know King of Fighters 97(SNK PLAYMORE) is supported.

Yup, this is the real Android version, not a version that requires an emulator.
Just pair in XHome and you're good to go

Thanks to a buyer for sharing this with me

Reading the game description on Play:
Looks like we can use an extra PG-9021 and VS against a buddy!

Reaper by Hexage Ltd, a creative RPG with nice graphics and strange enemy monsters.
This game is supported directly by the PG-9021.
Pairing in regular XHome mode.

It is recommended to go through the tutorial to learn the controls
Basically, it is...

The right joystick controls the cursor on the map.


Controls when in map.


During game play.

Moving towards the monsters activate auto killing.
This will earn you Rage skulls which you can use to strengthen your attacks using X or Y.

Attacking using X, Y, AAA or charging uses your Rage skulls.
However, jumping doesn't consume Rage skulls.

Enjoy

Yes, bro, the phone holder is rubber padded on both the top and bottom
to provide a good grip and also to avoid scratches on sides of phones.

BTW, what phone are you using?

Thank you for your interest

PG-9021: New device supported

Just met a buyer using a Oneplus One.
Some people call this phone a 'Flagship Killer'.
And I understand why
Its not the processor nor the screen size but rather its price!
Offering specs similar to flagship phones from Samsung, HTC and Sony
but at about half their prices for the 16Gb version

However, this buyer decided to go one step further by getting the 64Gb version!!!
Pairing and connecting to the PG-9021 was successful.
The buyer prefers playing VS fighting games such as KOF98.

Couldn't see much from this photo. Super-slick, blacked-out display.


Here we could see more; the back; confirmation its a Oneplus One.


Thanks to this buyer for his support and his generosity for the photos

Another thing I must mention, the Oneplus One runs on a rooted and customized version Cyanogenmod 11.
CM11 is itself a custom ROM and based on Android 4.4.

PG-9021: Support for custom ROM

I had the pleasure of meeting a buyer using a Samsung Note(GT-N7000).
This is no ordinary Note; it runs on a custom ROM called C-RoM.
C-RoM is based on Android 4.4.4 and aims to implement the best features
of many other great ROMs such as AOSP, CyanogenMod, AOKP, PARANOID and CarbonROM.

Pairing and connecting with the PG-9021 was first-time-success affair.
Media and volume controls were also working

Buyer tested with Deadtrigger and found it to be working fine

C-RoM is available from xdadevelopers here and its official site at c-rom.org

Modern Combat 5 is picking up pace since its launch.
More and more people are now playing this game.
This time its a Lenovo Vibe Z owner.

The Vibe Z, AKA K910, is the current flagship of Lenovo smartphones.
It uses Qualcomm chipset, which is rare for phones from this brand.
And because of this, pairing and connection with the PG-9021 was super smooth.
Volume and media controls were also working.

Though his phone has root access, we paired using XHome and tested with MC5.
Upon start up, the game detected the presence of a controller.
This was confirmed by showing a controller diagram with the functions for each of the control.

The Vibe Z owner bought the PG-9021 mainly to play MC5
and I can see the PG-9021 serve this purpose well for him

PG-9021: What does the PG-9021 actually send over bluetooth to your phone when you press the buttons?

Normally we don't need to know this; all we wanted was to play our games. But here it is for anyone who needs it.






For all these modes, media and volume controls generated these(starting from Volume +):

PG-9021: What about Y-Home?

Before proceeding, you will be glad to know switching modes
DOESN'T require powering off the PG-9021 and do pairing again.
We can just press the button corresponding to the desired mode, and Home together, to switch between modes.

The ability to switch between modes like this allows access to mouse mode.
To enter mouse mode, we need to first enter one of the other modes and then press Y and Home together.
Moving the right joystick brings up the mouse cursor on the phone. L1 enters, R1 backs.
This is what the LEDs look like in mouse mode.



Besides mouse mode, Y-Home also allows the PG-9021 to connect to rooted devices.
IPEGA called this APP mode as labeled on the third LED.


We can't 'switch in' to APP mode like we switched in to mouse mode.
To enter APP mode, we need to pair using the IPEGA GAME HALL or specifically Bitgames IME.

This was what was sent in APP mode.

PG-9021: New supported device

ASUS Zenfone 6. Intel Atom Z2580. 16Gb storage. 2Gb RAM. Original set. Without root access.

Thank you to buyer for his kind permission

PG-9021: Playing games on iDevices

Many buyers have asked me if they can use the
PG-9021 to play games on their iPhones or iPads.

Usually, I say:This mode supports iCade games and most of them are retro.

What if we wanted to play some modern games?

Today, I'll talk about how we can play a modern, free and
highly popular racing game: Asphalt 8: Airborne with a PG-9021 on an iDevice.

I have an iPad mini, not on the latest IOS but still quite a recent version, i.e. 7.1.
The first thing I did was jail break my iPad mini.Next, I installed Controllers for All.Switch over to BTstack and start A8A. Press X + Home on the PG-9021. A8A will automatically detect the presence of the PG-9021 and connect to it. I used Type B controller. Select this in OPTIONS, CONTROLS.

Here are some in-game controls:

Enjoy the game

PG-9021: SHADOWGUN: DeadZone on IOS vs Android

There are differences between the same game on different platforms.
I've just installed SHADOWGUN: DeadZone on an Android and IOS device.
Both are the same version. Here's the Android screenshot.


This is the IOS equivalent.


On Android, after connecting the PG-9021,
I can map the controls by tapping on SET GAMEPAD.


But on IOS, the SET GAMEPAD option is missing!


Though I can connect my PG-9021 to the IOS device,
all controls, apart from the two joysticks, do NOT work at all
I could only move and look around waiting for the inevitable.

Yes, bro, there are in fact two comments from buyers who play Monster Hunter on IOS in the PG-9025 thread.
It DOES work.


This one is not exactly Freedom Unite.


I believe the PG-9021 should also work as well.
Let me know which one is for you

Thank you for your interest, bro.
