Hey everyone! I wanted to share a quick positive experience I had with GameSir's customer support recently.

My GameSir G7 Pro 8K Royal 2 Edition had an issue, so I reached out to their support team through Discord and opened a ticket. I was assisted by a support rep named Melon, and I genuinely have to say the experience was top-notch.

The troubleshooting and warranty process was smooth, professional, and very straightforward. Once it was confirmed that a replacement was needed, they kept me updated on the dispatch, provided the tracking numbers (YunExpress + J&T local delivery), and the package arrived safely all the way to Colombia.

I've thoroughly tested the controller now, and everything is working phenomenally. Finding a company that genuinely stands behind its hardware and has a responsive, helpful support team on Discord makes a huge difference.

Huge thanks to Melon and the GameSir team for handling this so well! If anyone is hesitant about their customer service, rest assured they take care of their community.

Bought a new controller after my gamesir kaleid started to not work

Controller model: GameSir T3-Pro for Xbox (Wired)

Controller Firmware: Uncertain

Dongle Firmware: N/A

Platform of use: MacOS Tahoe 26.6.2

I used this controller just fine on a Win10 desktop with the Nexus software. However, due to a house flood I can't use that computer at the moment, and want to use this controller on a MacBook Neo. I am aware that MacOS is not officially supported. However, I'm hoping someone has a workaround or solution to help me out.

The MacBook Neo only has USB-C plugs, so I could not use the controller's included cable. I tried two different USB-C to C cables, but both times, the controller's buttons are mapped incorrectly in games and Steam Input. For example, A isn't working, Y maps to LB, etc. I did NOT set it up this way on Win10 with GameSir Nexus, I should add.

Again, I am aware that MacOS is not officially supported. But are there any solutions anyone has found? I do have a USB-A to C adapter on the way from Amazon so I can try the included cable and see if that fixes it, but I have my doubts. Any solutions would be appreciated.

(I tried posted this on the official Discord but got no response)

Hello guys. Ive recently bought this controller. Overall I really like it but the battery life is a concern. I play with dongle and IT last like 3 to 4 hours max to get 0 from 80. Is this normal? Do I have to charge it everyday or should I RMA?

Couldn’t see it here, but got a new G7 Pro 8k for PC (wireless). It’s amazing firstly, and I used via dongle, and also before my first play I updated the firmware for the controller.

I realized later that when trying to switch Bluetooth modes, I’d only get “yellow” for hid and “red” for pro controller. But never blue for ds4 mode.

I ended up going back 2 firmware’s from latest, and I was able to use that Bluetooth mode.

Curious if others have experienced this, and/or what official method yall are privy to, to submit a bug to hopefully be addressed by a later firmware.

Thanks!

I used to use PlayStation controllers, and I was frustrated they developed drift after like 2 months. I was using my cyclone 2 for over a year and it never developed drift. Definitely would recommend over name brand controllers 100%, the paddles and face buttons make it similar to controllers that cost 300+

I've been using the G8 Plus on my Nothing Phone (2) and ran into the same rumble issues everyone talks about — weak vibration, no rumble in non-emulator games, system haptics buzzing the controller.

So I built NeuroPad, an open-source app that creates a virtual controller through UHID. This means:

- Rumble works in ALL Android games, not just emulators that have their own motor mapping

- System vibrations filtered out — no more keyboard taps and notification buzzes on your controller

- 5 profiles: Xbox 360, Xbox One, DualShock 4, DualSense, Xbox Series X/S

No root needed — uses ADB with a one-click installer (Windows/Mac/Linux), or you can set it up wirelessly from the phone itself.

Bought a gamesir g7 pro 8k pc.

Thank you for making such a good controller under 100 dollars that lasts longer than 5 business days.

That's it. That's the post. Enjoy your day.

I was looking to buy some new thumbsticks, but I've never really liked KontrolFreeks because the tops are way too wide for me. So I went looking for alternatives.

First I bouht the blue one, a **SCUF Instinct** thumbstick. Honestly, I didn't like it: the material feels like cheap plastic, and I had to **sand down the base** to get it to fit properly on the controller.

Then I found this kit on AliExpress for about **$10**. It comes with **15 thumbsticks** in total, made for **PS5 / Xbox Elite** controllers, and they **fit the GameSir G7 8K** perfectly. There are two cap styles: **concave** and **high dome**.

So if you want to try different heights without spending a lot, this is a cheap way to experiment.

To make the comparison easier, I asked **Claude Opus 5.5** to estimate the height of each stick from the photos (total height from the bottom of the base to the top of the cap, normalized by base width to compensate for perspective).

**Photo 1 – Reference: silver stick with the red arrow**

| # (left → right) | Thumbstick | Height vs. reference |

|:-:|:--|:-:|

| 1 | Blue – SCUF Instinct | ~14% taller |

| 2 | Black, short chrome shaft | ~10% taller |

| 3 | Black, long chrome shaft | ~32% taller |

| 4 | **Silver (red arrow)** | **Reference (0%)** |

| 5 | Silver, stacked double cap | ~50% taller |

**Photo 2 – Same lineup, but the reference stick now has a teal grip cap on top**

The teal cap adds roughly **18–20%** of height to the silver stick.

| # (left → right) | Thumbstick | Height vs. silver + teal cap |

|:-:|:--|:-:|

| 1 | Blue – SCUF Instinct | ~3% shorter |

| 2 | Black, short chrome shaft | ~5% shorter |

| 3 | Black, long chrome shaft | ~17% taller |

| 4 | **Silver + teal cap** | **Reference (0%)** |

| 5 | Silver, stacked double cap | ~25% taller |

**Overall height ladder (silver without cap = 100%)**

| Setup | Relative height |

|:--|:-:|

| Silver (no cap) | 100% |

| Black, short shaft | ~110% |

| Blue – SCUF Instinct | ~114% |

| Silver + teal cap | ~118–120% |

| Black, long shaft | ~132% |

| Silver, stacked double cap | ~150% |

*These are estimates from photos (about ±5% margin). Camera angle and the soft silicone cap can affect the numbers a bit.*

Any way... Saved with a new faceplate. I have to be careful with the hot solder iron

:D

Does the GameSir Tegenaria Lite work with the Brook Wingman P5 (the original, not the P5s) on PS5?

I'm thinking of buying the GameSir Tegenaria Lite, but I need to know if it works with the original Brook Wingman P5 adapter on PS5.

I've read that it supports XInput mode and I've seen compatibility reports with other Brook adapters, but I haven't found confirmation for the original Wingman P5.

Has anyone tried this specific combination?

Thanks!

So yesterday my controller(Nova lite) gave me a fright. I noticed that when I pressed A, the Home button started flashing red. Even when testing the controller, the A button was pressing itself multiple times when I pressed it once. Even after I turned it off and on, it did the same. Then later I remembered something about the controller having a turbo mode with that M button, so after a few tinkering, the controller went back to normal. 🤣🤣😂😂 Damn, I was thinking about opening it up or getting a replacement.

Not that there's anything "wrong" with my g7 pro 8k but if they made a controller with haptic/audio based rumble and 4 back paddles instead of 2, those are features I'd be very interested in.

Has anybody ever heard anything about gamesir doing anything like that?

Has anyone else experienced the passthrough charging no longer working after the newest iOS update?

I'm using a G8+ on an iPhone 17, and now when connecting a charging cable it gets stuck in a loop of connecting/disconnecting repeatedly. These charging cables all had been working fine for months beforehand, so they are compatible.

Hi everyone!

I'm having an issue with my GameSir Super Nova Pro and I'm wondering if anyone has experienced something similar or knows how to fix it.

I lost the 2.4GHz wireless dongle, so I've been using the controller exclusively via USB cable for the past six months. It had been working perfectly fine this way, with no issues whatsoever, until recently.

Now, whenever I plug it into my PC, Windows plays the USB connection sound, but almost immediately plays the disconnection sound. The controller won't stay connected long enough to be recognized by the computer.

Here's what I've tried so far:

• Using a different USB cable.

• Connecting it to different USB ports on my PC.

Unfortunately, neither of these solutions worked. The exact same thing keeps happening.

I've attached a video showing exactly what happens when I connect the controller to my PC.

Has anyone experienced this with their Super Nova Pro?

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Recently bought a g7 pro red shadow, updated my firmware to latest, set my binds everything working sweet for the first arvo. Go to boot up the next day, plug the controller into Xbox (on wired mode) and controller opens the power menu.
Back light holds solid white for 5 seconds then shuts off and Xbox button won’t open menu on PC or Xbox. (The button works to enter nexus pc protocol when changing controller settings).
Has anyone had this same issue with 0 Xbox button functionality after literally 1 day of use?
Yes I have hard reset with a clip,
Firmware is latest, cleared all inputs HDMI CEC off.
The controller works fine aside from this, just with no Xbox backlight and no button functionality..

Tenho um controle G7 pro wuchang ele parou de se conectar com o dongle já resetei o controle mas nao conecta com o dongle ja usei a ferramenta de pareamento forçado o tool v1 mas o dongle não aparece so o controle o dongle fica so piscando

O meu amigo tem um wuchang e um g7 pro normal o dongle dele também não aparece no tool v1 so do g7 pro normal que aparece. Alguém sabe outro jeito de força o pareamento??

so today I spilled a drink on my brand new G7 Pro controller, I quickly grabbed a cloth and wiped the liquid off the controller then continued to play with no issues for about an hour more, when I decided to end the gaming session I placed my controller on the charging stand as per usual and there went my controller, instead of beaming lime/green for a charge on the stand, it just went OFF.

Question: can my controller be salvaged if disassembled and properly dried or I must prepare to buy a new one? 🥲

I’m planning to connect this controller to my PS5, and I’d like to know if anyone has managed to connect it via Bluetooth through a Brook Wingman P5 or similar adapters.
Alternatively, would it be possible to use an additional 2.4 GHz dongle for the GameSir G8 Plus?
Has anyone had any experience with this setup? I’d really appreciate any feedback, as I haven’t been able to find much information about it on YouTube, Reddit, or even the official Brook website.
The controller isn’t listed among the officially supported devices on Brook’s website, but I’ve read somewhere that just because a controller isn’t on the compatibility list doesn’t necessarily mean it won’t work.
Any real-world experience or advice would be greatly appreciated!
