The bug
Observed Results
When connecting an Xbox controller to an Android mobile device to play Minecraft with it, when the RT or LT buttons on the controller are pressed, it causes the in-game camera to spin around uncontrollably even when no buttons are being pressed on the controller. In fact, the LT and RT buttons do not do their assigned function at all when pressed. Even when disconnecting the controller from the device and using touch controls, the camera still spins uncontrollably. The only way to fix this issue is to restart Minecraft entirely. I also tried using this controller on the Windows 10 edition of Minecraft and the LT and RT buttons work without any issues. I also tried an old Logitech F310 controller on both the mobile and Windows 10 versions of Minecraft and strangely, it works with no issues on both versions.
The mobile device I used was a Samsung Galaxy S9+ running Android 10. The controller I used was a third-party Xbox controller connected to the mobile device using Samsungs USB-A to USB-C adapter.
Expected Results
For the RT and LT buttons on the Xbox controller to do their assigned function on the Android version of the game (attack/destroy and use item/place block respectively) and not cause the camera to spin uncontrollably.
How To Reproduce
Connect an Xbox controller to the charge port of the mobile device (usually by using a USB-A to USB-C or USB-A to Micro-USB adapter).
Open Minecraft and enter into a world
Press either the RT or the LT buttons on the controller and the bug should occur.

This bug still present. My controller: Xbox one. My phone: OnePlus 6t. The controller is connected with a cable (mini USB to USB c).
The RT and LT buttons are analogic and are sometime interpreted in Android as a input in Z axis. When I push the LT or RT trigger in Minecraft the neutral position is set to a half-pressed trigger. So, when the LT or RT isn't pressed, still present a input that generates a tilt in the z axis. This behavior keeps if I close and open again the game and my character keep to spin like a weird dancer.I have ask for a refund to Google play. I hope that this bug will be addressed, because I love this game. Until now I have buy the first beta in java long time ago, the Windows, the ios and the PS3 version of Minecraft.
