Any working bluetooth controller library for Arduino Nano ESP32?

Hello, I'm trying to connect a PS4 or Xbox One controller to my Arduino Nano ESP32 with the ESP32-BLE-Gamepad or Bluepad32 for NINA-W10 boards on platform io but when I'm trying to just upload code without using the Bluepad32 lib but while including it all those errors appears

Can someone help me resolving those errors or finding an another working library?

Is this file in the library? arduino-esp32/cores/esp32/io_pin_remap.h at master · espressif/arduino-esp32 · GitHub

I also see "deprecated" a few times... maybe the library needs to be refreshed/reinstalled?

3

for the ESP32S3 have you tried example programs under File>Examples>BLE ?

4

First learn how to post code and error logs by reading the pinned post re 'How to get the most from the forum'.
Post the code so we can test it.
Which of the 3 or 4 types of bluetooth are you talking about. You must be specific.

5

the Arduino Nano ESP32 has an on onboard ESP32-S3 which supports BLE 5.0 - see Comparison chips (SoCs) table for ESP8266/ESP32/ESP32-S2/ESP32-S3/ESP32-C3/ESP32-C6
in particular NOT Bluetooth Classic

6

I suspect the problem is using PlatformIO with its outdated ESP32 core, not necessarily the BLE libraries. I'd recommend trying the Arduino IDE instead.

7

That uses the ESP32-S3. I vaguely recall reading that this processor is not compatible with Bluepad32. Try one of the original ESP32 boards (WROVER, etc.) and Arduino IDE 1.8.19.

8

Don't worry I know how to post logs, I didn't specified that I've wrote code, I just added the libs into the platformio.ini lib_deps and it didn't compiled at all without code and concerning bluetooth I don't know if it changes something but it's not important to me to have a specific bluetooth type any of the types is gonna be good to me as long as it works.

9

That is the point, BLE can not 'talk' to classic etc.

Then why did you not use a code block in post 1?
Adieu.
