I lost my hotkeys for some reason as well and went into the RetroArch settings on the main menu of the RetroPie. I think it was called RGUI. In the controls if you dig around you can see your hotkey settings and can press the button to reset them to whatever you want. I tried fixing the file as well and couldn’t get it to work but this was way easier once I looked around.
Hopefully that helps.

I must be missing something. Then why, when I change emulators does the controller not register and work at all?

Ok, I have tested the dongle in other ubuntu machines and it pairs just fine with other Bluetooth items. So now I know that I have a generic and official sony controller, a bluetooth that is working, a usb cable that works perfectly when plugged in, and a retroarch configured control working for both controllers when plugged in. But I still cannot get the controllers to lock to the bluetooth during the sixpair step (although the sony controller buzzes) as no js_ appears in the input test step.
Could my sixpair files be junk? What is the best way to uninstall and reinstall? I saw one post on here that showed a Make step, but I was very confused reading it, and I consider myself pretty good at terminal commands.

Ok, so I found a cheap sony ps3 controller on craigslist close so I thought I would see if that was the problem. I guess not. I went through the same steps and while my remote buzzes when I hit the ps button (which did not happen on the generic one) I am still stuck on the page that says it needs to recognize a controller. I plugged it in with the usb and set all the controls, much like the other one, but was never able to set it up with the bluetooth. The one thing left in this equation is my cheap bluetooth dongle, but before that, I thought I would see if anyone else has seen this.

Can I ask a dumb question? How do you update the es_systems.cfg file? I can download it remotely from the network and update it, but do not have permission to load it back in. I was going to use meat’s idea since most of the ROMS I have found have multiple .bin files.
Thanks

I agree. I would really like to use this one. I was able to configure it to work while wired, although the file it says it created does not seem to exist in the folder it states it is in. So that is odd. But I cannot get it to sync with any bluetooth dongle. The file for mine is SHENGHIC2009/0708ZXW-V1Inc.PLAYSTATION(R)3Conteroller.cfg for what its worth.
I works nicely wired. If only I could figure out the bluetooth part.

jwh02017, did you figure it out? I would love to know what all you did to get it set up? I am having the same problem.
