I have an international Samsung Galaxy S7 SM-G930F (NOROOT) with a Gear VR. I can connect my XBOX360 Wireless Controller to this phone with the USB/BT Joycenter application 8.1 .
Unfortunately Samsung has removed USB OTG Support from the Consumer Gear VR and left over the only possibility to use bluetooth gamepads.
Therefore I have found your software GIMX and I am trying to expose my XBOX360 Wireless Controller as a Android Bluetooth Gamepad to use it in VR Applications.
I have setup Ubuntu 14.04 with the Bluetooth dongle and XBOX360 Wireless Controller and tested successful the functionality of both devices.
- Bluetooth = Standard Ubuntu Bluetooth application with exposing host and connecting to other devices
- Gamepad = Installing application gt-joytest and tested XBOX360 functionality (Buttons, rstick ... )

Try to connect with S7 to the new Gamepad which is now recognized as a Gamepad in Android Bluetooth settings.
So the Blutooth link (Desktop) with the name osboxes-1 has changed to (Gamepad) Wireless Controller still paired but not connected.

(If any other file hoster is required please let me know)
Maybe something with the linkkey ? I have set it to 0000 (see line 128 in the log)
It would be great if you could help me to connect it properly to the S7
