Sorry, it would be illegal for me to "copy driver from sixaxis controller apk".
Besides there needs to be some interface that BluezIME can use.

I need an interface with methods such as "connect()", "getdata()", 
"disconnect()", otherwise I cannot integrate the controller in BluezIME.

I have written the guys that make the Sixaxis controller, and there may be an 
update on the way that exposes such interface, so that you can use it from 
within BluezIME if you have purchased the Sixaxis driver.

The sixaxis app now has a 'Bypass IME' feature that uses uinput to actually 
simulate a hardware keyboard. Would it be possible to create a controller 
profile in Bluez IME that uses hardware keyboard inputs? That way we can use 
the SIXAXIS by making it pretend it's an actual keyboard.
(Does that make sense? I'm half asleep right now so I'm just kind of throwing 
words together)

Yes that is possible, but it requires that the device is rooted.
I prefer not to fiddle with root access if I can avoid it.

I would absolutely love it if people who purchased Sixaxis can use it with 
Bluez IME.  I want to easily use 4 Dualshock3 controllers with N64oid.  Right 
now the 4 controllers connect and work in N64oid but they all control the first 
player.  You can map hardware keys and that sort of works but there are not 
really enough hardware keys for all 4 controllers.  It is very tedious and hard 
to know if you accidentally assigned the same hardware key for a button.

The Sixaxis controller guy has not written about any updates to me, so for now 
I cannot do anything about it.
