How to use Xbox One controller wireless on PS3 (no CFW required)

Requirements

Xbox One Controller (Bluetooth Compatible) running Firmware Version 3.1.1221.0 (Or lower)
NEXiLUX NXL-95195 Game Genie Controller Adapter

Note

Don't update the firmware version to 4.8.1923.0. If you do so, you'll no longer be able to use the Xbox button as the PS button stopping you from accessing the XMB while in-game. Other than that, the controller will still function.

I realized this after I updated my controller's firmware from my PC. I was able to purchase another controller with the same compatible firmware.

Instructions

1. Connect your NEXiLUX NXL-95195 Game Genie Controller Adapter to your PS3 (Either port is fine).
2. Press the sync button once on the adapter.
3. Turn on your Xbox One controller by holding the Xbox button.
4. Hold the sync button on your controller until the Xbox button flashes.
5. Once the Xbox button stops flashing and stays lit, your controller should be synced with your PS3.

who would wonna use a xbox controller anyway.. good video tho:D
 
Xbox One controller is pretty good with racing, shooters and Fifa . Preferable to a knockoff PS3 controller and even to a genuine one for some people .
 
I have a single xbone controller that I was going to use instead of my wii u pro controller on the pc, but I've had it not connect or lose sync. that never happens with the pro controller and the mayflash adapter.
 
it's easier just to sink up a PS4 controller to your PS3. I tried to sync up an xbone controller and the PS3 recognized it, this is without a dongle, just straight bluetooth connection. but it fails to connnect. My Ps4 controller synced up right away.
 
I know this is a bump, but I wanted to mention that I recently snagged one of these—it works! Pretty handy since it's basically impossible to get a genuine DS3. I've tried every 3rd party controller I could find over the past 7 years or so. They all suck, pretty much. The best one I had was the Giotech Sports Controller (R1 stopped working.) Power A has a nice looking controller where the buttons light up, but the buttons have a tendency to stick, regardless of how clean the control is.

Using a One S controller—Xbox button doesn't work as the PS button when synced up and using wirelessly. But it does work if you just connect it to the adapter with a cable. Minor inconvenience, only game I can think of which this will cause problems is Demons Souls (Quit game abuse)

Tested and it works for PS2 and PSX games as well. PS2 games I have to reconnect the controller to the cable, then resync to get it working wirelessly again. Could just leave it plugged in if you have a long enough cord.
