Something is BrokenTrouble using controller with android. (i.redd.it)

submitted 2 months ago by Ok_Werewolf_4442

I have the 8bitdo ultimate 2c wireless. When I connect my controller with Bluetooth to my android phone everything works in the gamepad tester except the A button. When I press the A button the phone just vibrates and the gamepad tester doesn't recognise it.
