I have the spinning problem with my wireless Xbox 360 controller and Nokia 5. Please solve this problem

I still have this issue in 1.12.1 on the honor 10 lite, and the galaxy s8. no matter what I do I can't control the character and keeps spinning. It's so annoying, happens with Steelseries stratus xl and ps4 Bluetooth controller. Weren't they supposed to add support for ps4 controllers?

I bought an XBOX One S and MCPE on Android is working fine. Is anyway something that was changed during last updates, and would have been good to know that MCPE on mobile devices is only working with XBOX controllers.. Anyway my Steel Series Stratus XL doesn't work..

I have made a video about this: https://youtu.be/Dw19DOojpn8

I have the same issue, MCPE v 1.0.2 on Android 7.0 (Sony Xperia X) with bluetooth connected gamepad Steel Series Stratus XL. The player looks up independently when gamepad joysticks are moved. Switching off the bluetooth connected gamepad and the player behaves normally. When the gamepad is connected to the android device, the player starts to look up and whatever movements I make, it continues to look up in the air.
Is similar with the video attached to MCPE-16533.

I have this same issue as well. I'm using a Lenovo tab 2 A10 with Android 5.0.1 and a Dualshock 4. My Minecraft version is 1.0.0.16.
Everything is fine until i press either of my triggers.
Please fix this!

Still doesnt work (0.15.9 or 0.16 build 4)

Comment by Brion Kendo [ 20/Jul/16 ]

I have an official xbox360 controller wired. It works fine with other games but for some reason with MCPE 0.15 it does not work! Only the left joystick and the select buttons work. Please fix it used to be plug and play. Thank you!

Using a Nexus 7 and a samsung galaxy J1 ace. same issue.

Comment by Joshua Ruedinger [ 09/Jul/16 ]

Had the same issue with a 3rd party xbox 360 controller. My bet is the game just dosn't support themail. Microsoft Xbox controller works just fine. As well as a bluetuth ipega controller. Would recommend a wired controller connected with a USB to micro USB adapter though as the bluetuthe controller causes massive multiplayer lagg. Not sure if it's the controller, the game or the device but I'm thinking it's the device.

Device: Samsung galaxy tab A 9.7 SMT-550

I have the same issue also, using PS4 controller, android 4.4.2, MCPE 0.15.0 alpha build 3.
L2 controls rotate, unpressed it rotates to the left,
R2 controls Y-Axis, left unpressed looks up, if I invert Y-Axis Steve looks down at the ground, Fully pressing L2 rotates to the right and finding the middle pinch point will stop the rotate, same goes for R2.

Comment by Ramon [ 04/Jun/16 ]

I have same issue. Using Android Version: 4.4.2 and Version: 0.15.0 build 1 and using a ps4 controller.

Comment by Alex Fernandez [ 04/Jun/16 ]

Bug still occurs in 0.14.3 and even in 0.15 build 1

Comment by AMAN4700 [ 02/Jun/16 ]

Does this bug still appear in 0.14.3? Please respond.
