Phone doesn't detect Dualshock 3 controller

Hello, I read all threads about problems with dualshock controller but they concern either problems with fake controlers or problems with phones that doesn't have native support or don't show any solution to this problem. 

So the problem is that my Z1 doesn't detect the controler at all, i tried with 2 original ones that came with my PS3 that i bought in 2006. I connect it with USB OTG cable and i used the xperia connectivity app and in step 1 the next button is still inactive. The usb otg cable is fine, it works with a usb drive and with a mouse and a keyboard. 

the controler model is CECHZC1E and firmware number of the phone is 14.2.A.0.290

i solved problem by myself. So the problem was that in order to use this function you need to have original sony usb cable because most of others doesn't work. So i used sony cable and everything is ok now.
