HEllo all,
I hope someone can advise or help me.
I have a Nokia SU-8W Bluetooth Keyboard which is a very good bit of kit.
It works flawlessly (0 lag) with a Bluetooth Mouse on my N95.
I cannot however get it to PAIR WITH MY HD2
I can find the device, then try to pair, the HD2 asks me to type in 6-7 Characters on the keyboard, which it picks up no problem.
It then says press enter to complete, at which point I get an error telling me that my device is not discoverable.
I have set the device to discoverable and to no discoverable yet this doesnt help.
I have tried with 3 different Radios 2.7.50, 2.7.51 and now 2.10.50 yet still gives me same error. (also stock, Dutty and Energy Roms)
I just want to make it work so I can play System Shock 1 on Dosbox
I really suffering in my Love Hate relationship with my HD2.....
At last my FM radio gives me more than 1/2 a station, and I got Wiimote working on FPSCE so I can play games....now I want dosbox with a keyboard hehe some people never satisfied!
Any advice or experience with this device or similar would be great.
Many thanks all!
Nokia BT Keyboard pairing
Hi, I did it a couple of weeks ago, and in the first place it was also not working for me.
But I have found out, that if it asks you to press the enter on the keyboard, that it is not the real enter on the keyboard. I am not having it with me now, but I managed it to get it paired to my HD2.
I will try to see, what I have done to get it paired, but my keyboard is at home and I am abroad at the moment. Give me some days.
Once you have it paired, it will makes the connection without problems, even if you have the BT as hidden (as i have). Beside that, you have to play with the correct language settings too, before you have the correct keyboard layout.
Remember, it is possible to get it paired
Edit, solution:
Press once (!) the FN key, you will see the (FN) light will light up.
Now, press the numerical code (these are located on top of the QWERTY keys, and they are now enabled because of the FN function).
After you have completed the entering the code, press the (FN) key again, this will switch off the numerical keys and now press enter.
You should have a connection now
Perfect!!
Thank u very much!!
+ 100 rep
Works perfectly. As IT support I should have noticed!
Many thanks
Works peftectly in word etc....
If I try to use it in Dos box.....is not acknowledgeing any key except the return key
I will investigate more!!

Hi,
I have a BT keyboard, Think Outiside Stowaway Bluetooth.
When I pair it with my X7500, the pairing passcord is not popped up while other device like my lap top shows a pin code on the screen. Instead, a input box like a BT mouse or a BT headset shows and asking me to input the passcord, which I cannot know.
I tried to install a driver for WM5.0. In this case, the mouse did not work because my mouse is not a product of Think Outside.
I just want to use this BT keyboard together with my BT mouse.
If anyone has a simiar trouble, please help me out.
Thanks,,,,,
the passcode is 0000
Thanks but...
The passcord '0000' does not work.
Could you let me know how to pair my BT Keyborad to X7500?
What I did is as below;
1. add new..
2. select BT Keyboard
3. Passcord textbox comes up
4. type '0000' in X7500
5. No connection message comes out.
Thanks...
Treat it like a 'secure' password connection and after you put in '0000' on the Advantage, put in '0000' on the Think Outside keyboard too.
Brad Miter
You choose your own passcode (you need to use onscreen one to put the first code in) , then type it on the keyboard after that. I got one of these for Christmas and it's a great keyboard!!
guys do u knw if this keyboard is compatible with advantage x7501 and its gonna be released nxt month
It works as a standard bluetooth keyboard, so yes, it should work.
I've got my eye on one of these too, for use with my PS3. But I've just ordered the Logitech Dinovo Edge at £100, so maybe Logitech have had enough of my hard earned for a while.
thanks man i will surely get one of these
Did anyone get one of these devices yet? It would be awesome to customize one of the lids to allow for the Athena to fit inside of the cover. It would seem to be the ultimate in UMPC's I would think even better than the shift, since it would have the GPS option from the Athena and now with backlit keyboard, built-in dual use pointer solution and battery power for a months worth of usage.
Any feedback would be appreciated, I love my other diNovo Edge and Media Board's, but would like to hear about the new diNovo mini before dropping the cash on yet another portable keyboard that I forget to carry along with me in my travels...

Dinovo Mini
Hello everybody...
I'm also interesting in this keyboard. It looks very nice. I could be a great solution for my X7501; it seems that we could fit our device in the cover.
Do you think the drivers could be install in X7501
Any feedback?
Regards.

my guess is that it will use standard HID drivers and that we will be able to easily utilize it. I checked the specs and it looks like it will be under 20 mm's too large to fit under the cover without a slight bit of modification. With the modification, I believe that we will have a woderful solution / workaround... Hope to test the keyboard next week...

hi all, new member speaking .
i bought the diNovo Mini yesterday and tried to pair with a Glofiish X800 (wm6.1 cooked rom).... it works without any problem !!
(the icon of the paired item in the wm interface is a keyboard, so i think that is working with standard bt-keyboard driver)
the "windows" button is working, the keyboard itself is working, it works even the "clickpad" (used as "arrows" keys)
i'm searching some keys that acts as "OK/Close" button now and as soon as possible i would try with RDP if the "mouse arrow" appears in some way using the trackpad. (it will be wonderful...)
(sorry for my poor english...)
its a good investment
have bought some months back it even has usb bluetooth dongle for instant pairing with pcs without bluetooth..butt athena is already heavy and to couple it with mini would be cool but will make the unit more heavy

Hello ZyRix1st.
Have you tried the track pad?
If it is like a mouse this keyboard will be the right solution for me.
Are the keys more comfortable that the keyboard of the X7501?
Regards.
If the track pad works, can we use it like a mouse outside Microsoft Word application to launch and control other apps or does it only function in Word?
...
track pad
Hi.
Any news about the use of these keyboard?
Can we use the keyboard and the track pad as a mouse pad?
Thansk for your comments.
Regards.
mouse
just lookup "blue mouse" http://http://www.teksoftco.com/ if you want a mouse for athena that works everywhere..
Keysonic 340BT
Hi
Has anyone seen THESE before? I've just bought one and will coment on it when it arrives. It says it is ideal for windows mobile. you can get them on ebay too.

Keysonic 340BT Keyboard
Hi again,
Well its arrived and it paired up OK, and everything seems to work as it should. the laptop type finger board is a joy to use, and the only niggle I have is the finger scroll bit only moves the screen in small moves at a time. It comes in a very smart black bag, and takes 2 aaa batteries. double click does'nt do much, but thats more down to the athena not having a double click function. The keys have a normal keyboard type feel to them with a good feedback to them.
in all it good for the money and is great to surf the net on the wide screen tv while on the sofa downing a beer Its better than having a mouse and large keyboard, unless you are heavy into typing. Any questions, PM me or leave one here.
All the best
Jay
So has anyone managed to test the Logitech keyboard & pad with bluetooth/usb on the Athena? I think i'd prefer logitech to the keysonic option.
Any News?
Hi.
Any news about the dinovo mini??? Someone had tried it?
Responderman.
In these time, How do you feel with your keyboard? Is enough small to be carry out?
I was reading about it and they say it's portable.
Thanks a lot.
I have had a dinivo mini for a while a just realised that it might work with my new htc touch hd and I can say it works very nicely, not perfectly but nicely.
And to answer thoses asking i just installed blue input and now the mouse pad works as well, I havent tried it in opera yet although i did find one slight annoyance in opera when you use the keyboard to input text you have to wait for the text to apear before you press space or it wont register it also the left and right buttons also seem to soom in and out on opera so editing text gets a little annoying as well I will mess around some more and post back if anyone is interested.
***Edit*** actually installing blue input seems to have overridden the dinovo mini as a mouse so it only functions as a mouse now and no keys work. I will continue to test.
***Edit 2*** after installing blue input the keyboard no longer seems to function it pairs just fine but nothing provokes a responce in my device, I will need to test more but from what I can see if you want your dinovo mini to function as a keyboard more than a mouse then dont install blue input, at least not until it is properly supported.
***Edit 3*** after deleting all settings re connecting and reinstalling blueinput everything seems to function as it should i.e. mouse and keyboard of the dinovo both work fine.

Thanks a lot for your information.
It seems that the mini work fine with your HD, and probably will work fine with the Athena. I'm using WM 6.1. just using a driver like blueinput.
Which are your impressions about the keyboard, it is portable? and enough to introduce a lot of text? Is the pad useful as a mouse?
Regards.
Ug
Sorry to burst bubble guys but my mate just got one of these. I sat with it for 20 mins trying to tell me self I would want one but they keys are just plain AWEFULL
Really nasty tactile feedback - from logitech!! Unbelievable reallly!
There are no raised buttons so you cant touch type easily and find way back to F and J
Battery and backlight are nice though.
I tried to type the same sentace about 20 times waiting for something to go click and for my brain to accept this as a possible puchase.
It did not come. I wouldnt get any more comfortable with this and its not as good to type with as ameo keyboard (raised F and J)
This is sucking bum
for £60........I could er well do lots but NOT buy this shizzle. I have never before seen a logitech product that I believe sucks. But this - IMO sucks.
Thanks....

Hi,
I have a strange comportment of my Diamond when I try to pair bluetooth devices whitch have pairing code different of 0000.
Everytime I try to give the pairing code of the device (1234, not changeable), the enterred code in cleared when choosing the "next" button.
(assuming then that code is not needed or is 0000).
Has anybody a solution for this problem ?
Diamond is with original firmware from HTC (the one dowmloadable on there site).
Thanks in advance for your answers
Bouhboulle.
More of the same
I have the same problem (posted earlier). My car's hands-free requires a random code provided during the pairing process, and pairing never succeeds. I understand the Diamond tries 'standard' codes - 0000, 1111, 1234, etc. is there a way to disable this?
Me too
The same for me using Diamond from Vodafone with Vodafone 3D touchflo. I can't pair with any BT device. Please help from anybody.
Thanks a lot.
I do not have this issue.
I can pair with any code on laptop. And my carkit (parrot) just pairs perfect with 1234
BUT
When entered the code, just WAIT, and don't fill it in again. I often see the 'code' field again, and want to enter. Pairing twice gives error etc. Just ignore the empty field, when paired it dissapears.
Think its a tiny bug.
Still the same...
Hi Riel.
There is no option to enter the code twice, once you press next automatically deletes the field and acts as an enter.
BUT, surprisingly, I have installed a cooked ROM and the same again... I now have my doubts about the BT application, I think is the original one from the OS and not an cooked accessory.
I hope that anybody reading this could put some light on it as is one of the strangest behaving I've seen around PDAs in many years.
Thanks for any help.
Its strange my diamond works fine with parrot kit but not with my bt kit
anyone knw why,
Here is the solution
Go Start/settings/connections/bluetooth/right down press security tab and uncheck passkey
Doesn't work, for me at least...

Thanks for the answer but I have tried and doesn't work. On the screen says this is for infrared connections, or am I lost?.
Cheers.
EDIT: I got it finally but the only way is to flash the original ROM and later the one you like. Also remember that some devices does not support more than one pairing partner, this happened to me with a Nokia BT headset, I had to refresh it.
Good luck.
Hey,
today I thought I have to try something new. When i saw my HD2 lie on my bluetooth Keyboard I just had to give it a try. So I paired the HD2 with a Logitech Dinovo Edge keyboard.
For first impression just watch the linked video on youtube i made:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-l9GckkXzSw
It is kinda possible to control the HD2 with the keyboard. Some commands wont work with the keyboard arrows, some do.
It is possible to assign keyboard keys to Morphgear and FPSECE but they wont work in game. May somehow it would work since the keys are assigned.
Enjoy this one
BTW: its german layout qwertz keyboard but the HD2 takes it as a wwe qwerty keyboard so at the end of the video you see me having some trouble writing a ""
How do I go about pairing my diNovo Edge with the Leo?
I didn't even know the diNovo used Bluetooth, I thought since it came with a USB dongle it was USB.
Nice what kind of cradle do you have there?

i like it too what is it?
hey, yes the dinovo is a bluetooth keyboard ... i dont even use the logitech bluetooth dongle because i dont like the size of it.
Well, the cradle is the battery charging station for the bluetooth keyboard
Leo kinda fits in there but its connected nowhere just used it for the video.
I'm using the USB receiver since I use my Bluetooth for audio, not sure it could do both at the same time.
How do I go about putting the diNovo in pairing mode?
turn your keyboard upside down and press the connect button then look for available bt devices on your HD2
Incredible feature! Did any user who have bluetooth keyboard have tried this on Touch HD?
I saw this at WMPU.. good stuff ...
That's fun!
I just tried it on my HTC Elf and it works! Even when I turn off the screen.
I bet the iPad can do this too... oh wait, it probably can't, seeing as how Apple have their own overpriced keyboard/dock for it.
pairing a LG touch
just tried to pair my LG Touch with no success, the device does show up in my listing fully described, it asks for a passcode which i entered 0000, and it tries to pair and eventually fails....i wonder if you all are pairing because you are using HTC products.....which will be fine being the im due for my HTC Evo 4G next week.... WOOHOO!
Do you think a
Logitech Cordless MediaBoard Pro
http://www.logitech.com/en-us/keyboards/keyboard/devices/3616
would work ?
Works with Logitech MX5500
Done and confirmed to work with Logitech MX5500 Keyboard
WOW amazing!
I've had a logitech dinovo edge for 4 years, and I always thought the bluetooth capability was somehow proprietary(even though thinking about it that doesn't make sense if it's labeled bluetooth) I just tried it out and it works pretty well, though when typing messages it starts to lag when i type too fast. I wish though it could take advantage of all the other inputs on the kbd like the trackpad.
HD2 bluetooth keyboard works great
I bought a mini bluetooth keyboard on [email protected] and it works great with my HD2.
It makes typing txt-msgs with my giant fingers easy.
It was only $34. Model wkb-1500
Can anyone shed some light on this? I have a Nexus One, stock 2.2.1 ROM and a DiNovo Edge. I can pair the keyboard with the phone but then I get "Paired but not Connected" in the bluetooth device listing. When I click on it there is no response, only the option to unpair.
Thoughts? Thanks!
also working : DiNovo Mini !!
Hello! i would also tell u that the diNovo Mini Keyboard is compatible to Leo. I'm using this little keyboard since 1 year and i am very happy with it. I can put it in my pocket too.... and the accu of it is very powerful (along 2 weeks of using every day)....
only the mediaplayer doesnt work with the buttons (i use strg + ...).
and the price : uuuuhhh a lil bit too much ;D
on the pics u can see how small it is... (cant compare with leo cause i shot the pics with him )

This response is over a week late, but if you get this, I hope it helps.
After pairing:
Download BlueKeyboard JP or Blue Input Demo from Market. After you install either of these programs, go into Settings>Language&Keyboard and check the box next to the program name (either BlueKeyboard JP or Blue Input). Go into the program's settings menu (should be right underneath it in the list). For BlueKeyboard JP, it'll ask you to select your keyboard and input type/style (e.g., US QWERTY), among other things. For Blue Input Demo, it'll allow you to search for your keyboard. Just search and choose it when it pops up on screen.
Last thing, change your input method. For example, if you want to use your keyboard to type a text message, open up the text messaging program. In any of the textbox where the text goes, press and hold your finger on the screen until a menu pops up with "Input Method" in it. Select it and choose the program you just downloaded (Blue Keyboard/Blue Input) in the menu. Your BT keyboard should now work.
I used Blue Input Demo on my HD2 with the diNovo Edge and found that it's better than BlueKeyboard JP. Give it a try and let me know if it works.
Hello friends,
I have been unsuccessfully looking for a solution for two problems I have with my Diamond2 and the Bluetooth carkits of my two cars. I have found several threads with similar scenarios but I have not found a solution.
My Diamond2 is running the latest ROM available in HTC assistance page (RUU_Topaz_S2_HTC_SPA_2.53.412.3_Radio_Signed_Topaz_61.44etc.25.35_4.49.25.91_Ship.exe) without any modification apart from some applications installed (TOMTOM, TotalCommander, ...)
Problem 1
=======
Scenario: 3 years old opel/vauxhall carkit
Everything works, the phone pairs with the car and I can make calls. The problem is that the Bluetooth of the Diamond2 turns off randomly and I have to switch it on to make it work again, which is quite annoying while you are driving.
I have found a CAB called BTrestore.cab that checks the Bluetooth and turns it on if it is off. This works, but the problems is that this software discharges the battery very quickly. There are also some registry tweaks that are supposed to solve the problem, but I tested them with no success.
Problem 2
=======
Scenario: Latest SKODA/VW rsap carkit (Skoda Columbus with Bluetooth premium)
Everything works, the phone pairs with the car and I can make calls. The problem is that sometimes when I leave the car and the Dimaond2 disconnects of the carkit, it loses the phone signal and the only way I have found to recover it is restarting the phone. This does not happen always, only occasionally, but if I forget to check if the phone is working after leaving the car, I end up missing calls.
I would appreciate it so much if someone could help me to solve these problems.
Thank you in advance and best regards,
Javier
Set Turn off Visible mode - Never
I have the same problem with my HTC Diamond II and a Opel Corsa with integrated bluetooth handsfree. The bluetooth on my phone turns itself off all the time, I can turn it on again and after 2 or 10 min. it turns off again. I have upgraded the car with the latest sofware, but no improvement.

Thanks for your answer Andonov. Sadly, that setting does not solve any of my two problems .
Try the attached solution i made for the same issue. It does not drain the battery and works like a charm. You need to install mortscript. Copy the toggle app to your card and change the script to point to your SD card( i had mine for the Diamond 1)

Thanks Ghosty7! I'll try it.
I am also trying two workarounds but it is not clear to me yet if they work:
* For the first problem, it seems that disabling the rsap option of bluetooth makes the connection last longer, but I haven't done a long trip yet to test it to be sure of this. Nevertheless, without rsap, I have seen the connection to last more than 10 minutes, what was unbelivible before.
* For the problem two, I have manually configured GSM connection, I mean, I have set the GSM band and "protocol" instead of leaving it as automatic.
I will tell you if something of all this works.
Sorry to butt in here, but I have another issue with BT and car kits, which someone may be able to help with.
With many of the latest cooked ROMs, when I pair my Topaz with my car kit, and I get to the page where you input the pairing code, the keyboard changes from a QWERTY to a numeric keypad. From that moment on, I have lost access to any form of keyboard other than the numeric one. On the keypad options pop-up, I can select Full QWERTY, Compact QWERTY, but there is no change to the numeric keypad.
I did find a cab file many months ago which cleared this and restored the keyboard choices. But this seems to cause issues with the hardware buttons, which stop responding.
Does anyone know a safe way to reinstate the keyboards after a car kit has caused the keyboard to premanently change to a numeric kepypad?
Thanks.

Hi,
I have the same problem number 2 with my vw premium carkit. I wrote to the HTC support regarding this problem. First they asked me to send them the photo of the phone screen when the problem occurs. After that they sent me btspy and sked me to make some logs, however, the btspy does not want to run on my phone (something about missing certificates and/or files). Replied to them I can't run the program and no reply for over 2 weeks. I'm staring to think I'm gonna lodge a complaint to them and ask to repair the issue or replace the phone with a one where the problem won't appea, it's still on the 2 year guarantee
