Emulation of Logitech diNovo Mini

Hello,
some weeks ago I have this discovered this mini-keyboard, which you can link to the PC via bluetooth and use as a keyboard and mouse:
http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/keyboards/keyboard/devices/3848&cl=us,en
http://es.youtube.com/watch?v=Dj0MF58-ElA
My first impression when I saw it, it was that this device looks similar to my TyTn 2, especially when the PDA has the keyboard open...
So, this is exactly my question. Exists any kind of software for my PDA that allows to link the keyboard of the TyTn to the PC and, for example, use its touch-screen as a mouse?
Thanks

very interesting i would also be very interested in this as well...

That is a pretty good idea. I got a freee BT keyboard from amazon though.

yea there is, but it uses wifi. I can't remember the name of it now, but I think it was posted already. I will look when I get home.

tried and hit wall
Last week I begun developing/experimenting on such an app, to use the kaiser as a bluetooth HID mouse.
I did manage to get windows to recognize and install it as a HID mouse, but could not establish a connection. The problem is that the M$ bluetooth stack does not seem to allow me to attach to the L2CAP layer and implement my custom profile (the HID profile in this case).
If anyone has more information on how to access the L2CAP, please share .
The kaiser would be a wonderful remote mouse/keyboard for my htpc configuration!

Use full usb keyboard

Hey everyone..
I would really love to connect a full usbkeyboard to my Magic 32A..
But then i connect my logitech G15, nothing happens..
I think it because of the need of a HID driver.. But i am not sure..
Does anyone now where i can get a HID driver for android?
//Reffer

lol. No. Just no

LMAO. FAIL.

If I remember correctly, there's a lot of posts about this on the official SDK mailinglist/forum/whatever. If you google it I'm sure you'll find something.
And shoo to the last two posters!

Hey mockillo. Thx for posting a answer i actually could use to something..
The only post i could find on SDK was this one: http://groups.google.com/group/andr...hl=en&lnk=gst&q=usb+keyboard#7397813348f7a9fa
And they say that android not support BLuetooth HID.. But nothing about normal.. I think i will try to make a topic in there too..

That's not how USB works. If you want a full keyboard you'll have to get a bluetooth keyboard & wait for the bluetooth SDK to be released (maybe rooted users can use bluetooth keyboards already?)

USB host
does anyone know if Magic hardware supports USB host? If so, it would be possible with 2.1
Just check this out: _ttp://jkontherun.com/2010/02/17/how-to-add-a-usb-keyboard-to-an-android-phone/

appearently MAKE magazine did an article about it. I say it just might work. but you may want to talk to some devs to see how to get into usb OTG mode with a mytouch.

anyone tried this?

on my last check no dev is building with USB HOST built into there roms ( things can connect to phone) unlike the normal usb slave (your phone can connect to things ) , plus if you were to use your phone as a host it would need to power the connected device (ie. Keyboard)
some good news ...
Most roms built off of CM source have a bluetooth HID stack... So like me i use a bluetooth keyboard (logitech media board for ps3) and it works great. And drains the battery no more than a bluetooth head set.

same goes to me

haha. A funny guy... lol.....
You should find driver for that keyboard... I think...

Try v.mote this is exactly what you want... just the opposite (the phone become a keyboard..)

[Q] usb keyboard with case

I purchased the case with imbedded keyboard and initially the kb worked great. However, now I can't get it to function at all. Have tried playing around with settings etc., but no go. Anyone having success or probs with this keyboard? Thanks,
ooorah

Have you tried restarting the A7? (fully power down, not just lock the screen)

Coonecting a keyboard...

I read the users manual (available on-line) and they clearly state that the USB port only has support for USB flash drives.
2.3 Connecting USB Devices
With the USB 2.0 host port, you can connect USB flash drives to your
Tablet to access external files. The Tablet supports drives up to 64GB in
size. Please note that some older USB 1.1 devices may have
compatibility issues.
The Tablet supports flash memory drives only; it does not support other
mechanical drives
The other way to connect a keyboard is via bluetooth. Again, the A7+ supports limited Bluetooth connectivity:
Bluetooth Device Requirements
The A7+ Tablet officially supports only A2DP Bluetooth devices with
stereo audio capability. Mono devices such as cell phone speakers and
earpieces are not compatible.
Important Note: The A7+ does have limited Bluetooth compatibility with
certain Mac computers and other assorted peripheral devices, but it does
not support printers, scanners, bar code readers or most other peripheral
devices even though the Tablet will detect and “pair” with such devices.
The necessary “connection” can only be made with proper drivers. Until
hardware manufacturers of these devices create the necessary drivers to
support both Android and the Tegra
This information is from the latest version of the owners manual dated March 2012. I'm afraid that you're out of luck unless you upgrade the operating system.

Compatible Bluetooth Mouse?

Has anyone found a compatible bluetooth mouse? I can't find a standalone bluetooth mouse that will successfully pair with my DB (I have tried a Targus Model#: AMB04US and a Think Outside BT Mouse).
Furthermore, all posts I can find relating to the subject are for a keyboard with a built-in trackpad but I hate trackpads. I want to use a standalone bluetooth mouse and don't want to have to buy a dock (I am using the Webtop hack that bypasses the need for a dock).
Thanks in advance.

I successfully used my MS Bluetooth Mouse 5000 on the web-top. But here's the thing that might be causing your issue with the other mice: When I went to pair the mouse with the web-top it was waiting for me to enter a pairing code on the phone screen window and since i had that window behind a Firefox window and I didn't realize it the pairing process kept failing.

Logitech has a mouse out meant for android tablets. Maybe give that one a try?

Thanks for the suggestion. I get the pairing code window, but when I enter 0000, 1234, or 4321 (per Motorola Support's suggestion), they all fail. Targus support says it is because there is no PIN required. So if I enter something then delete the pin I entered (just to get the OK button to activate), it still fails.
I'm glad to hear that the MS Bluetooth Mouse 5000 works though. It appears reasonably priced online. Motorola wants me to go buy their mouse for $40+shipping. Seems a bit steep for something that clearly isn't working due to software incompatibility.
XDA Community: Please post other mice that have worked?

I wanted to close out this topic by giving others the following insight:
The MS Bluetooth 5000 mouse works flawlessly with my Droid Bionic both in standalone mode (nothing attached) and in Webtop mode (with the WebtopMod_Hack that enables you to get to webtop without a dock). I purchased it for $18 from a seller on eBay and found other sellers listing it for $20-$25.
Hope this helps future purchasers out.

Same here...
I'd also like to chime in and say the Microsoft Bluetooth Mouse 5000 works just fine.
It really irks me though, because I have an older (ironically) Bluetooth Mouse 8000 which I really liked because it had an integrated laser pointer and presentation controls on the underside of it. I could never get it to pair.
Microsoft must have made some changes in the device firmware stack because now with the 5000, I could get it to pair to my Bionic using the passkey 0000.
No matter what I tried, the 8000 would not pair.

I've just picked up Logitech's V470, and it works great! No issues

Identical setup (stock, rooted, webtop mod), identical results! In fact the V470 has worked on DX, Xoom, and now the Bionic for me with no issues.

Same problem with microsoft notebook presenter mouse 8000
Same problem. Imposible to sync MS Mouse notebook . (Asus Transformer Prime TF201)

I have the wireless Apple Mighty Mouse that I use with my Mac and that paired up well with the phone.
I'm running the latest CM9 SELFKANG. The cursor works fine. Scrolling with the trackball is great. Clicking is fine. But it lags and locks up horribly on stock. Anyone else notice that?

Mouse Acceleration?
Do you have any mouse acceleration with the mice you have tried? I just tried to plug in a Logitech MX518 to the USB-port and i have terrible mouse acceleration (when you move the mouse slowly the mouse sensitivity is really low, but when you move the mouse fast the sensitivity is much higher).
I need to find a mouse that does not do this (or a program that will correct it).

I found a solution to this maddening issue!!!
Solution is very simple!
1) Download an app called bluetooth pairing in Play Store, its in japanese but all you need to do is click the magnifying glass icon, then click your device and hit the big blue button that comes next..
2) Disable and enable your bluetooth on the phone, the device is already paired
3) Select the device and it works perfectly.
Discovered this fix accidentally..

I use the Microsoft Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000. Works awesome no need for a third party program the mouse cursor works fine and you can find tune the mouse cursor in the language and input settings of the settings menu. I really like using the scroll wheel and you can even use right click with in ES File Explorer.
I use this same mouse with my laptop.

Anyone tried a Razer Orochi mouse? That is the bluetooth mouse I want to pick up for my laptop since I hate dongles and am adding a bluetooth transmitter internally to the laptop. Would be nice to have a mouse that will work for both my laptop and for my DB with the lapdock. I know that with the lapdock most USB dongle wireless mice will work but I hate dongles and I know one day I'm going to lose the stupid thing and be SOL.

Samsung dex

Hi all. I preordered the note 8 and here in Croatia as a gift I'm getting the dex station. So I'm thinking of buying all the dex peripherals before it arrives so I'm ready to use it when it finally does arrive. I'm going to be connecting dex to my tv so I'm going to get a wireless mouse and wireless keyboard. But my question is since both the mouse and keyboard use Bluetooth and i know Bluetooth 5.0 can connect 2 things at a time will I still be able t9 connect a 3rd device (Bluetooth earpiece because I think if someone calls me when I'm using dex it will be kinda easier to use an earpiece) or another phone to my note 8 to transfer files?
Would really appreciate any help. Thanks

Just use wireless keyboard and mouse instead of Bluetooth. There are two USB ports one for thumb drive or other usb devices and the other for mouse and keyboard...then no issue with Bluetooth.
Is there a benefit to bluetooth mouse and keyboard? Or do you have plans for both usb ports?
I am going to try an external optical drive to see if it can read disks.
Is there a mouse/keyboard combo that uses one bluetooth connection?

Tnx for your answer. I'm not really an expert in these things so I kinda overlooked the fact that I can connect the mouse wirelessly without Bluetooth. I'm getting this mouse https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Any...g=androidcentralb-20&ascsubtag=UUacUdUnU61031
And this keyboard
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00X5P8BJO/?tag=androidcentralb-20&ascsubtag=UUacUdUnU61031
Seems the keyboard has to use Bluetooth though. Have you checked if Bluetooth 5.0 really works with 2 devices at the same time on the s8/+?
I have been reading something that it doesn't because android itself doesn't support It?
Also do you know if its possible to connect an external hard disc to dex? Tnx

First of all, DeX is a brilliant device and does exactly what is supposed to do!
Second, in order to get Note8 connected to DeX you NEED to power the station ONLY with the original power unit which came with Note8! No other charger will work with DeX!
Third: in order to use an external USB stick/ HDD / SSD, you NEED to install inside the Note8 an application. This app is Total Commander (the legendary one done for Win 95 and used further even as FTP standalone on each and every Windows version). However, to get the above external device to use it, you will NEED a plugin for Total Commander - the so-called Microsoft exFAT/NTFS for USB mounter! This comes with a price and has several options, see below:
• Microsoft NTFS: $4.99
• Microsoft exFAT: $5.99 (*for non-TV devices only)
• HFS+: $4.99 (OSX format)
• FAT32: $4.99
• All file system support pack: $9.99
Gplay LINK
The above is the ONLY method to get an external device working with DeX.
Fourth: I would suggest to use a wired mouse, not a BT one! And a keyboard can also be used with Android interface (same as a windows 7 for example - is a screen keyboard).

I use a Bluetooth keyboard(logitech), Bluetooth mouse (Microsoft) and Bluetooth headphones (Marshall) with DeX and they work well, no connection issues whatsoever, so you should be able to connect more than 2 Bluetooth devices without any issues (SM-N950F)
