Its so disappointing the android version of the game still doesn't have controller support,it's been so long now

[@ZcriptureZ]

Yea it's stupid

[@GhosteYoutube]

they favor apple so much, first controller support, higher resolution, now 120fps support which even PCs don't have.

[@Gonzora]

​@@GhosteKZbinI think it's more of a business deal than favoritism although the result is the same for players using an Android smartphone.

[@GhosteYoutube]

@@Gonzora thats a stupid business deal though, majority of the players use android and why would apple monopolize better graphics/fps when their device cant even handle it, they released 120fps mode but none of their devices can handle it, not even m2 ipads, meanwhile there are computers out there that are more than capable of running it at 120+ and they're locked at 60.

[@propaneandpropane3942]

​@@GhosteKZbinapple is paying for it,

[@Assassin710]

It's so much better with controller working flawless with my android tablet holding a tablet and operating on it is a pain thank you for the video

[@ZcriptureZ]

Glad this worked for you. Yea, I can't play any other way

[@PlanToBehaviour]

I don't regularly upvote or comment on youtube, but I really dig the groundedness of your movie. No CTA's for liking & subscribing, screaming sponsor-shoutouts or agitating selfcam-shots... just what you see is what you get, right down to the end. So there you have it, my first ever youtube-like AND comment! It's badass. That's it.

[@ZcriptureZ]

That means a lot, thank you. I'm glad you liked the video

Dude this such a game changer, just started genshin and I'll continue playing thanks to this, thank you for the tutorial

Does it work well? I haven't played since sumeru cuz my tablet is my only device rn but I hate touch controls

​@@reignu3940 it works, just get a nice controller that supports Android

[@venomousgators5261]

@@reignu3940 yes but there's only 10 uses then you have to uninstall and install it again

Thanks I can finally play on my phone again. I've been PC-exclusive since I started playing, this would've been very useful when I was trying to do my dailies last summer on vacation.

[@summerwintermelon]

Setting up was a breeze. Thank you very much.

[@blackstar5867]

It's nice you using a switch pro controller for this because im using switchroot android 10 and if im playing on a docked switch, im oviously gonna use a switch pro controller

[@mikesozickgaming1012]

Thank you so much! Very simple to do, and now, I can play Genshin with my favorite controller! Merci beaucoup!

[@Enshin1006]

I've been seeing people saying you can get banned due to it being third party but since its not affecting game files and it's basically just a screen overlay on your device rather than something that's editing/affecting the games files/interface then I presume it should be relatively low risk. I'd imagine if someone does get caught you'd get a warning first as HYV don't simply ban start away they always give a warning first at least

[@vnnr7925]

been 3 months how is it going?

[@ZcriptureZ]

Still good 👍

[@RYs-qo2cm]

Did you know hoyoverse banned some people who used auto clicker?

[@drextrey]

Auto clicker is detectable as 3rd party, in pc every other apps can be detected as 3rd party. I have seen people get banned because of antivirus or other background softwares(1 Week ban)

Nice! Yea I can't play without it

[@mohinkro2733]

Hey dude, just wondering if yrplaying with a controller on yr Mobile

[@Murasakii]

I tried many apps for button mapping, but I have the same problem every time. Whenever I press a button or stick it shows a cursor. How can I fix it?

[@HikariSakai]

what if its not a bluetooth controller, like one of those mobile plug in controllers that you put your phone in and turns the phone into a portable gaming device essentially?

[@ananintobetobe9360]

I did everything you did but when I type the shell command in LADB it says ":No such file or directory". Is there a solution to this or do I need to activate it from the computer? Frankly, I don't want to play without a gamepad.

[@AshtonGodbout]

I guess a Nintendo Switch does have benefits, saying it's a handheld I would love to use the old edition Switch and game on

[@aashishbadami95]

Man, thank goodness i have an rog phone, they have this feature in their game genie natively.

[@rickc3420]

Thanks a lot, it worked for me

[@ChimericWhite]

If I had the patience anymore I'd go through this. I play on psn usually. I set the in-game controls as close to the Breath of the Wild control scheme as I could. So for me: Circle is interact Cross is sprint/evade Square is attack Triangle is jump R1 is Elemental Burst R2 is elemental skill Banger control scheme, or so I believe. I just wish Genshin Android had native controller support. Geez I need to convince my sister to install and download the game so I can see it at 120Hz

[@halloweengaming5587]

Like it but its like complicated in the menu and quick Using items or lets juat say you usw a team where u just uae the Ultimate from the bar instead of Switch.. theres no enough buttons fir that combat

[@jabberwockraken]

Idk why but with Xbox elite serie Controller its native . But with another Xbox Controller or dualsense its dont work...... I have a Elite Controller so i thinking all of Xbox/switch/ps4 Controller its ok but apparently Not

[@emilyk1889]

I'm having trouble with my camera movement being choppy and lagging button control, combat is near impossible, I have a OnePlus 11 with Android 14 and a switch pro controller, I'm not sure how to solve this issue.

[@angelzombie2111]

The only keys I have available to map are the left and right sticks, the x-pad, and the a key... How do we get the triggers, bumpers, x, y, b, etc?

[@ZcriptureZ]

You set it the same way for every button. If it doesn't work try using a different controller.

[@madfritz3873]

this helped a lot thanks

[@comradebruh5320]

why mine cant add buttons just y key that can be placed idk why it dint work for me

[@omrongamingone5497]

We wont have enough buttons for the menus, like characters menus we cant set the button for navigation😊

[@NoahtheGameplayer]

I'm not sure if people are still talking here, but The reason why I like to use a controller on the phone so I don't have to block the screen with my fingers, Plus it's kind of hard to find a Play store app that is good for mapping your controls on any phone control brands

[@daud5400]

Plz tell me i cant change my camera angle as i am using joycons (not pro controller). It inputs the left stick as the right stick so i cant do each input seperately, please reply asap

[@muhd9684]

Is it still working now? Does it get you banned now? I dont need sleep. I need answer

[@Kitkat5335]

Ran into this problem multiple times trying to use a controller out in the wilds. If you can't enable 'Wireless Debugging' to activate, then you just can't get this to work. Only way to enable Wireless Debugging is to have a wi-fi access point, without it you can't enable it. If you can't enable it, then you can't use this to connect a controller. Why it needs a wi-fi to connect a blue tooth device is beyond me. For those saying 'Ah, but you need connection to play the game!' Thing is, game has improved to the point it can work over 5G/4G network without issue and no need of a wi-fi connection, so yes...can play genshin without a wi-fi connection, but you can't play Genshin and use this to activate a bluetooth controller cause for some dumb reason it needs this option enabled...which when no wi-fi present it auto-disables.

[@ZcriptureZ]

Yea it's dumb...

[@Kitkat5335]

@@ZcriptureZ ...you'd think that a company that rakes in hundreds of millions of dollars a year could figure out how to get wireless bluetooth controller support to work on Andriod OS. Oh well....always PC version, just sucks when not at PC I am limited by the control scheme of the touch screen.

The Mantis software is safe to use. I've not seen it do anything else to my phone than intended use. It is a 3rd party program, which is against Genshin TOS. So use at your own risk. I haven't heard of anyone getting banned for it yet. Any Bluetooth controller that can pair with your phone should work.

The same way you set up the other buttons. Press the d pad and move it on top of where the characters icons are.

@ZcriptureZ ah okay thanks. Yeahci just asked because when I tried before it was actually acting as the left analog rather than letting me select my characters. Is there a way to setup so you can pan across the map and such and when in the character page like scrolling characters etc? I find when moving the analog stick it doesn't actually move to a new point I have to still do that part on the touch screen
