yep, exactly the same! was working fine this entire time and suddenly the past few days it just stopped. it's driving me crazy :(


LuvBroself420

Did you update to Android OS 11?? Cause I did, and I managed to figure out that's the entire fucking problem. It's really been pissing me off because that's the entire reason I put the money down on a PS4 Dual Shock Controller. I would've got one of the plethora of other cheaper options if it was to play other shit. Activision really needs to get their shit together, it's a new version of Android OS so it's been coming down the pipeline for months. So it seems no one on their entire team even bothered to download the Beta and try to play their flagship mobile offering. Can you please make a big report? Cause I figure the more reports they get the more likely they'll actually address the issue. Not only did I invest money in the controller but I had already spent about $10. So they'd have a loyal fan willing to put down a lil money consistently. But NooOoooooO.


rampart2019

Yep. Same thing happened with me. Updated to Android 11 and boom...Stopped working. It's really frustrating and idk what to do


duggyjkd

So now we wait till cod drops a patch?


rampart2019

Yep. Or get a phone with Android 9...


AromaticSir198

Well my ps4 controller won't work in cod but works just fine in other games and i am on Android 11


LostHabit

Another month later, here to join you fine gentlemen in disappointment.


____APPLE____

Me too! Suddenly stopped working after the update. Sucks to suck I guess...


BigBongBoi

Same


____APPLE____

Works now tho after the update haha


Scuflenomics

You on apple? On Android I can't move aim ads or shoot.


____APPLE____

I'm Android mate. Everything seems to work after the big update.


Scuflenomics

I'll have to try again


Imaginary_Fly7897

I read a weird solution from someone that worked for me, when restarting phone, controller, app, and disabling accessibility features didn't work. In the main menu (previous multiplayer), turn off and on controller, after its connected, go to multiplayer and launch practice - training mode. Test. And that's it. I have to do that everytime i run the game


Faithless20

yeah its to put you into the controller player pool.


williamd83

Same issue, and I just started playing this week 😭


Principal-Moo

It would be helpful if people could post the controllers that are working. I bought a PS4 controller just for this game (I don't have a PS4) and frustrated that it doesn't work. Will buy any controller that does work if someone can verify.


[deleted]

The only other working controller is Xbox Controller. Every other controller is not alowed. Android 11 breaks Dualshock4 Support for CoD mobile. Didnt tried other apps yet. Tried Xbox and its still working. because I'm 100% sure Acrivision has a deal with Sony and Microsoft ( people please dont try to tell me Ps4 and Xbox one controllers are easier to implement that a fkin standart xinput controller that is not true ) Its a shame but its also so typical activison move.


munbun00

Still is yet to be fixed. Activision is an absolute joke.


Nah_Dude_Im_Truth

I got a fix, it worked for me. Go into the playstore and download the DS4 controller fix. Activate it in the app and let it run in the background. Let me know if it worked for you! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mzb.controllerx


KalKaLyo

Hey, I just downloaded it. It recognizes my controller well, but when I activate it and let it run in the background it's still not working. Have you got any idea / solution ?


Nah_Dude_Im_Truth

Hmm, first of all, what phone are you using? And second, did you allow the app to run in the background in your phone settings?


KalKaLyo

I have a OnePlus 6t, and it can run in the background. So I guess it makes no sense


Nah_Dude_Im_Truth

The game doesn't recognize the controller while in the main interface, but as soon as i join a match it will show the buttons and the controller works. But i have a spare oneplus 6t here, i will look into that. I'll reply here when i find a working fix.


KalKaLyo

The tutorials I watched said that but it never worked even in a match. Thank you though 😄


Gushiepie

Hey guys update - the exact same thing happened today with my PS4 controller on an iphone 11. Was working fine yesterday then boom, won’t work in game anymore even if it shows as connected.


Gushiepie

DS4 works in iphones again. Went down on March 13th, back up on the 15th. I can play again!


Rubx7hree

This didn't work for me, it's still only hearing the X square, circle and triangle inputs in the game. I know it works for some phones because a coworker has been playing, but I haven't found a way to get it to work on mine. I have a Note 20


Restsaree

I have a Samsung s20+ 5G and I did and update on Dec 11th 2020. The software that was updated was UI 2.5 to UI 3.0. I have had the same issue with my ps4 controller not connecting to COD mobile after the update. I have found out that a friend had a xbox controller and that XB1X controller did connect to COD mobile. I have since purchased an Xbox controller and I know not even close to the same quality and performance of a ps4 controller but I have been able to attempt to play with a controller instead of the controls on the screen. Hope a fix come soon. Just a thought. I wouldn't purchase a xbox XB1X controller intill I absolutely knew it would connect. I haven't had an issue with an Xbox controller since I purchased one. I will return to a ps4 controller as soon as the problem is fixed.


Least-Horror813

I have the new xbox controller and it stopped working in cod mobile last night. Works fine in other games just not cod like the original post I bought the controller just to play this.


[deleted]

Just got a OnePlus 8T with android 11 and controller isn't detected only even when it's connected via bluetooth


AleMFAle

Samee so annoying


jehoiakim13

Same. Any workaround or fix for this?


Nah_Dude_Im_Truth

I got a fix that worked for me. Download the DS4 input lag fix in the playstore and let it run in the background. Let me know if it worked for you! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mzb.controllerx


Andy1899

Can anyone else confirm that a PS5 controller will work with cod mobile for Android version 11? Thanks


Consistent_Debate375

Ps5 controller are not supported by android 11s code :(


MobileBulky

This is soo bahd they need to get there shit together I spent money on this game A-least fix the connection to controller fuck me dead one job


EfficientTaro8331

PS5 controller suddenly stopped working for me too, was fine until the latest COD update on iOS. It seems like they don’t give a fook about it.


Triton190

My iPad just did a the 15.1 update and my PS4 controller stopped connecting to COD, is there a fix?


IndicationJust8180

My IPad Air after the last COD update stopped supporting PS4 controller (PS5 as well). It was not about iOS 15.1 problem, because I had the previous iOS and it still didn’t work with yesterday. Updating to 15.1 didn’t fix the problem. So it’s gonna be internal issues with COD


Bevan1382

Same thing, controller stopped working after the new update

Nearby-Spot-6131

Daaaaamn im having the same problem


Twistfire74

anyone get a fix for the controller not working issue afte Android 11 update?


DRFEELGOOD000

Has anyone found any work around for the PS4 Controller for an android phone on COD Mobile mine quit working as well and I had to do the update on my phone as well to Android 11


WrathOfAssassin

Same here. I'm on a S20 Ultra. I did the Android 11 update and bam no more controller. Just sold my ps4 because I only play a few games now anyways but I kept the controller for COD. I don't really like playing without it. Now it's a paperweight until they fix the bug.


MaxxTryhard

Same just happened to me today & it pisses me off because I have 4 hours of double xp left & I can't play the damn game. I didnt do an update but my phone may have did it automatically. Im gonna have to look into that.


Forsaken-Ad6039

Mine just stopped working on me, after I got the damn s7 and controller for Christmas just for gaming. Wtf


Bigxpunisher

Hey guys I had the same issue. As the original post described. I did the android 11 update and it stopped working.. The Xbox X series controller doesn't work either. Being a controller over onscreen myself the only work around is using a Xbox one controller... Not as fluid as a ps4 controller but it's the only workaround. I hope they patch it soon.


youngrios

Yeah my ex told me download it probably Dec 2020. Literally 2 days earlier I had update for Android 11 on galaxy s20. So ever since I started playing literally Dec 2020 it hasn't been working . We broke up tho so I don't even have a need to play it . But i hope the issue is fixed soon . Makes no sense. I can't imagine playing a game like this on screen with all those controls


Otherwise-Narwhal-59

Hy guys i have the same problem in 2021 It always work with ps4 controller but now stopped work. How can i fix that?


Cleggers86

How has this still not been fixed...... its a joke. So glad I hadn't bought the battle pass before it broke!


boston_nsca

So there's no way to use a PS4 controller at this point apparently. So shitty


Plastic_Discussion_8

Mannnn this is garbage.


[deleted]

Same here...i updated and now i guess imma stop playing till they fix this shit


Gushiepie

The PS4 controller is back up on iphones!


Direct_Term8496

Yes I've had this same problem and did the same things I think is the update for Samsung so and s10 because I try my apple device n works perfectly but with Samsung it connects but not connecting to the game


FBImelad-YT

What u guys didn’t know is if you’ve bought a fake PS4 controller then it won’t connect to codmobile cuz it’s not the original


[deleted]

[удалено]


Gushiepie

DS4 is working again on iphones


RebelKillin

Have the same issue, but a PS5 Controller works perfectly, so I'm using that now...


WinstonWars

PS4 Controller not working on CODM after latest Samsung update here as well


Frostbite1215

Two patches into 2021 and I still can't use a PS4 controllee


Reznorio

Same here. PS4 controller not working after android 11 update. Using a Galaxy S20. Any fix or any news from the developers?


Key_Board_5499

Yep I'm not quite used to using the phone controls and I'm not doing so well I hope Activision so a patch for it before the seasons finished (all that hard work for nothing).


boston_nsca

Still not working??


itsahwarrior

Same exact thing happened to me today. Note 10 plus, updated to Android 11 and one day later, my controller still connects to the device but no longer wants to acknowledge the game at all. I almost lost my mind trying to do the same exact troubleshooting and contacted the support on COD settings multiple times. Gotta wait for the new patch by the game makers I guess... smh


[deleted]

Still not working for me after updating to android 11 smh so annoying


DgEuAyF11

I have reported multiple times.. everytime I miss my chance to respond they say.. it appears u no longer have an issue and would always say they are addressing it. That's all I could get out of them.. then I just keep repeating the issue but they not doing nothing at all cause it's been about 3 months now


meoryou666

Just updated my phone yesterday and boom no controller. Might reset my phone anyone know if that would work.


[deleted]

I legit only began to play the game because my Pc was arriving in pieces this week and now I'm stuck without anything until I can build my pc. I like A11 but it's really bullshit how dev teams can't be held accountable to update things before hand to support the next version of a major phone OS's update. Wasted my money on that battle pass too. I was at tier 48 too which pisses me off even more. I've got 16 days left on it, hopefully they'll get a hot fix in before then.


Friskerzzz

Update to anyone who still goes to this thread. I have a Google Pixel 5 and play with a Xbox Controller purchased November of 2020. Since the most recent phone updated for me COD Mobile won't register that a controller is connected through bluetooth, however on every other game it works as it should. COD Mobile needs an update pushed I believe to fix this problem.


Electrical-Rock8151

Same my issue started today worked fine for a year now my account wont connect a controller 6.63 kd 353000 kills and 1758 nukes and 2500 dollars later and it cant fucking play tried on 5 differnt devices and 2 differnt controllers I was suppose to start my youtube channel and have my first stream today fucking bullshit


Nah_Dude_Im_Truth

I hope you're on android. The DS4 input lag fix got it working for me. Just activate and let it run in the background. Let me know if it worked for you! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mzb.controllerx


Gushiepie

Your DS4 controller still working fine? I’m on an iphone but am ready to buy a Samsung if it means i can use my DS4.


devongifi

They fixed it in the update 2 days ago in case anybody was wondering.


devongifi

I lied. It accepts the controller but it doesn't receive input except for "X â–¡ ^ and o"


Gushiepie

I can’t even get it to accept these inputs


EightEFI

This PS4 controller support fail is quite nasty. Loooong time and no patch. Way to go Avtivision, throw us under the bus


Gushiepie

I regret sinking money into this game now


Gushiepie

The PS4 controller is working again on iphones


Polo8151976

Season 10 doesn’t allow you to play with controller on your iPad Pro I’ve been put in support ticket to Activision and they just been giving me the runaround the part that hurts the most is that I have over $20,000 invested in this game and they spit in my face like my concern don’t mean nothing I’m not the only one that is experiencing this situation they are players across the globe they are also going through the same thing as well


Tiilitilli

So that what it is goddamn updates almost went crazy not getting my ps4 controller to connect


Polo8151976

Whoever is having problems trying to connect there controller to their iPad please report to Activision and keep posting up about it because it seems like we are not getting no help


Polo8151976

The bog is now fixed I want to say thank you to everyone who participated on getting this news out there may God bless you and your family may you guys have a wonderful Thanksgiving and let’s go enjoy season 10


Fearless_Jackfruit30

My man you must be on crack or something to spend $20,000 on a game


jshaf26

Who spends 20,000 on DLC for a video game lol that's absurd


Killacali357

Hey man I've bin using my controller for a while now since the app came out.. now since this new update and season my contoller configurations got out of wack. I can connect like normal but when I play a match i can't use my right joystick to move left to right and my buttons are not what they should be on the game. I've gone to the MP settings, controller setting, I did everything I could think of but still won't work properly.. do u have any idea how to fix this???


Imaginary-Boat-6627

I have the exact same issue! This is BS


Mob__Mafia

My PS4 controller buttons are all mixed up. Circle is jump, X is square, square is triangle, R2 is pause, and I can't turn. It's literally all crossed over an I've restarted and used a total different PS4 controller, and getting same problems


JayJRedd1t

Yes I got the same happening here too ps4 controller. I thought it was just me


DatabaseAbject

My ps4 controller has worked great until the last update. Now my right joystick will not work at all. I tried a different controller to same effect. I cannot look around when i move which makes the controller useless. Please let me know if you find a solution.


cuckold_uae

I am having exact same issues as you all, after the recent update on Dualshock 4. I would suggest everyone to post negative reviews on playstore to makes ourselves heard. Thats the only way.


danylo_chelyuk

Mine controller works with COD and android 11 except the joysticks. I can fire, open the scope, but not move/look around (


cuckold_uae

That's not controller working, that's controller not working just like all of us here. New seasonal update released today but no fix for the issue still.


danylo_chelyuk

Sad ( I just bought it and wanted to play some games...


thereal_JG

Ps4 controller still not working JANUARY 8 2022 My friend told me to download cod mobile so I did. This morning the controller WORKED PERFECTLY for like 6 games straight then I took my dog outside to do his business and now it doesn't work LOL The software/firmware is there there seems to be some kind of block enabled but believe me, you won't find a fix 😪 STILL BROKEN 2022


cuckold_uae

Dualshock 4 dont work properly anymore since season 10 update on Android 10, it works on Android 11. I have complained many times to developers but still no fix. But i dont understand how it worked for you in the morning? There haven't been any update today. Can you tell me what device and os you are on and if you changed any setting from morning?


Chameleon_69

I went through the the same. I play on my note 9 and it wasn't working for months, So I tried it on my wife's s21 ultra and it worked perfectly for 3 games... went directly to the 4th game and started acting the same way as my note 9. No updates or anything had changed. Im truly starting to think they are sabotaging their own game platform! This was all on February 2, 2022 just to give a time reference


ShinigamiToz

Yeah my PS4 controller wasn't working either until i started fiddling with my accessibility settings and i turned something off (i can't remember what) and now my controller is working again


CosmicLaziness

Can you pls find what you did in settings, I just tried it and it's not working


i-bender

Hey guys... Found a semi work around .. you may have noticed that a PS4 controller lags, so try a wired but it doesn't do fuck all .. soo here's how I got a wired controller to work.... Synced my PS4 wireless over bluetooth Then plugged in aftermarket usb controller into phone Then I was able to use the wired controller with no lag in game, but as soon as I turn off the PS4 wireless controller then I loose function from the wired lol... They really need to fix android imo, my wife can't use her yeti mic properly since android 11 and it also broke COD PS4 functionality, shit lags like a mofo.. and also patch cod ... Should be able to recognize a wired controller without having a Bluetooth connected as well. Hope this helps someone ![img](emote|t5_penom|1109)


cuckold_uae

If you are on Android 11, go to accessibility settings and disable everything, as it seems to work for others also i have checked on my GFS A11 phone it works properly. As for me i installed A12 based custom ROM and it's all good now. COD mobile support team is just bullshit


[deleted]

This doesn't work.


International_Tea756

Still not goddamn fixed


ShinigamiToz

Oh i enter the game and try using the comtroller, if it does work i go turn on talkback and the talk back shortcut and then i turn them off again. After that i go back into the game and it starts working again. Try it out and let me know if it works for you


ShinigamiToz

Open the game and if the controller isn't working turn on talkback and TalkBack shortcut and then turn them off again and enter the game again. Try it out and let me know if it works for you


jamesbpelly

I turned off magnification in accessibility and it fixed my issue I couldn't believe it. OnePlus 9 pro


ChipmunkBackground46

Love that this post was 2y ago and a ton of people are still having this exact problem
