@Technohacker No idea bud. @paroj may be able to let us know.
these changes are now in https://github.com/paroj/xpad master. If they turn out to work without side-effects, we can think of sending them to linux upstream.
thank you so much for this
@Lumin4ry you can use the new xpad driver itself instead of using the script.
(FIXED)when i try to execute the script it tells me to install the pyusb module even tho i installed it already. i don't know whats wrong
I install pyusb then i do "python fixcontroller.py" and then it says ''First, install the pyusb module with PIP or your package manager.''
I was using pythton 2.7 then i switch to python 3.8 and the it worked
If you are using ubuntu try installing using apt. That seems to work for me.
thank you so much for this fix.
Can confirm it makes my USB device 045e:028e work on Ubuntu 20.04 with kernel 5.15.0-52-generic
Both xpad kernel module and xboxdrv receive no events from the joystick until I run this fix, and then the controller works fine after.
@Breakthru have you tried using the updated xpad driver?
Try the one in paroj xpad repo with branch fantech. It has all the fixes for the game pad and needs more testing.

I'm facing the same problem, Please tell me how you managed to fix this issue.
@itsSagarBro
Two options.
sudo apt install python3-pyusb
sudo pip3 install pyusb
@amardhruva I have tried the xpad kernel driver and can confirm it fixes the problem without having to run the workaround script.
Thank you! I've tried everything on the net and this fixed my controller being detected but not outputting anything on Kali Linux 6.0.0
Unfortunately this script does nothing in my G-LAB Thorium Gamepad (detected as Shanwan Android gamepad), even when usb ids are 25a7:fa23 :-(
Hi @dnmodder, Could you give me a clue of how to extract the required hex sequence from the wireshark usb capture? I suppose control sequence must be among the Configuration Requests I read in my capture file, but I do not know what values are.
Also works well on Ubuntu Budgie 22.04.3 LTS - Kernel 6.2.0-26-generic
Make sure to sudo apt install python3-usb first and run the script with sudo
I also have to run xboxdrv (and let it run) beforehand
You da man
@flashrocket any idea if they're planning on upstreaming those changes to mainline later?
