Support Stream – Mobile Development - May 5th

Hey All!

This is very timely as the Mobile VR Jam is going on right now. In fact, this is the last week for it.

There is an issue with bluetooth controllers under Android (not limited to VR) where the D-Pad doesn’t work, and with some controllers the Right Thumbstick doesn’t work. I’ve detailed all of this here last week: https://forums.unrealengine.com/showthread.php?68380-Gear-VR-Bluetooth-Controller-Issues-(for-Mobile-VR-Jam)

This impacts all of us that are replying on bluetooth controllers for our games/apps/expereiences. Especially the Samsung EI-GP20 where the Right Thumbstick is non-functional. With only a week to go until the end of the Jam, it would be great if we could get a patch for 4.7.x to help out. I’ve read that JJ Hoesing had something he was working on to resolve this.

Thanks!
