Probably because it has no keylayout.
Can you control the homescreen / settings UI (outside of games) and stuff? if not the scancodes must not even match the generic.kl

I can use it as a mouse when moving the left/right stik and r1 button.
When i put the pad in mod 1 a.k.a gamepad mod it has no efect on the games.
I have looked at the system/usr/keylayouts
Found no match.
But did try to see if the beelink recives signals from the pad by using an app .
The beelink recives the signals but no effect in the games.
Do i need to make a layout file for the pad and place it in directory?

Download a terminal app
conect gamepad in game mode

in terminal do

cat /proc/bus/input/devices

Copy the Code

take note of Vendor= Product=

make a new file called Vendor_????_Product_????.kl <~~~~~ replace the ???? with your values from terminal for Vendor= Product=

open the file with a text editor and paste this inside

Copy the Code

download and install this (message me on freektab for link)

press all buttons one by one taking note of each scancode value for each button
now change the key codes in the file with the scancodes you took to mach the buttons
save file, add to system/usr/keylayout
set permissions
unpair gamepad, reboot, pair
