Can we turn Kaiser into diNovo mini?

After seeing diNovo mini in action, it's got me so aroused!
This triggers me to think about bringing WM device to be a more interactive media device, especially, something like Logitech's diNovo mini for HTPC.
I'm just wondering if any developer can come up with an app that connects Kaiser to the PC via bluetooth, and turn it into an input device with the qwerty keyboard and touchscreen as a touchpad D best if this can be integrated with Sideshow! LOL). Silly?
p.s. Hey! I know I'm just daydreaming~but if anyone has the same ideas, interests, and ability to make this happen, summon your strengths!

Actually, I've been looking for a way to do this myself The closest I've got, is using remote desktop connected to the computer through WiFi. It's fun, but unpractial and not quite the solution i was looking for.
So, this possible?

I use "Signal" a program for controlling iTunes via Wifi which works well as i use itunes to stream music to different parts of the house. Its also skinable too!
In the past with my Blue Angel not only did i use that but also used Novii Remote for Stereo, TV, Sky, DVD etc and also as a remote for lights in my house.
Almost like House hold universal remote!

I have found a program called salling clicker that will control almost any media program. It also does mouse control and can send the keyboard input to the computer.
The problem is the mouse control and keyboard input are separate parts of the program so for example if I want to type in the address bar I have to go into mouse mode, move the cursor up to the bar and tap, then go into the message mode and type the address, then back to mouse mode. If it were all tied in together it would be the ultimate program for that. They may make an improvement on it too I haven't checked lately.
BTW, this is a much better deal than just the Denovo Mini because with the phone you have the screen to look at when browsing for files etc.

I found a script somebody did for salling clicker that puts keyboard and mouse together. It's written for the TyTN but works on my TyTNII. I'm also going to look into tweaking it this weekend! Looks like I need to return my Dinovo Mini.

First you have to get the program called 'Salling Clicker' - it installs on your computer that you want to control.
When you have it installed and your PDA setup to connect using wifi or bt you just have to add the custom script onto your computer in the My Documents/My Clicker Scripts folder.
Then add the script using the programs menu on the computer and connect using your phone.

on-screen mouse for X1

Hey all any one able to help with the creation of a mouse pointer for the X1 that uses the optical pad for control?

IIRC there was one I tried many months ago, but it was really bad. I think that the optical thing only returns one dimension at a time, so don't go thinking you can use it as a track-pad. At least, it did not work on the mouse pointer I had. It worked kinda like the one in Opera 10.
I'm sure you can dig it out with a quick search. It was not specific to X1 -- which maybe why it only ran in 4 directions (but, again, I am 99% sure that is a limitation on the hardware or device driver).

Virtual Mouse, I thought that was the name.

Ya I tried the virtual mouse its shareware and only was u/d/l/r and you are so right it wasnt that good.

There's no other one for the X1 like in the Samsung Omnia.

[Q] Apple magic trackpad anyone?

Does anyone has tried an Apple magic trackpad on our TAB?
I have the Apple bluetooth keyboard working very good. I was thinking on a mouse (I would use it when remote controlling lots of window servers).
Thanks!

I also want to try trackpad.

I'm waiting for the iMac refresh and then I'll be picking up the top spec along with a trackpad. I'd be happy to give it a go but surely someone's already done it??

The shop where I bought my apple wireless keyboard allows people to try all the display models, and they are working devices, not just dummy (empty shell) models, so next time I go there I'll see if they have this trackpad and try to connect it.

I can reply to my own question. I'm trying now: it pairs but it works only with single touch. It doesnt even recognize the tap gesture, you nave to actually Press to click or to drag. So, apparently, no use. Maybe there is a different driver.

Xoom/Tab keyboard?

My apologies if this was answered before, but do the Xoom or Galaxy Tab branded bluetooth keyboards work well with the NC? My thinking is that since they're designed to work with android, they'll be much easier to pair and maximize functionality with the NC (dedicated android function keys, adapting to orientation shifts, etc). I have a Microsoft bt keyboard I've tried and it's not convenient for me. Anyone tried either of these two yet?

THIS THREAD would most likely answer your question

Thanks for the referral, and I have checked out that thread a couple of times. Unfortunately, it looks like no one there has tested a xoom or tab keyboard. Anyone able to confirm if that purchase would be worthwhile?

From another post I made:
I still have problems with bluetooth keyboards, runing nightly 126 and 131. I have a Xoom bluetooth with a modified qwerty.kl file to enable most of the android special keys to work. The three annoying issues with Xoom keyboard is that it will stop working while typing long messages, have to hit power button on it to restart; a key will stick kkkkkkkkkk; and not easy to get out of pop-up for accent keys. You do not see these problems? The best feature is that I can leave power adapter plugged in with bluetooth.
When I use my Logitech wireless usb combo keyboard and mouse I only seem to get the pop-up accent box. The negative is even with a y cable it does not seem to charge nook while in host and v-bus mode. The combination arrow and keyboard interface is really slick.
Anybody else notice these flaws with bluetooth and usb keyboards?
Edit: At this point I can not recommend the Xoom keyboard. My Logitech wireless usb combo LX 710 Keyboard and LX 7 Cordless Laser Mouse both work with transmitter plugged into male micro female usb adapter. I prefer the usb combination.
Just found this negative post about Xoom keyboard. Exact same problems that I have.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14150996&postcount=70
Edit 2: Maybe I was too harsh on the Xoom keyboard. I changed the batteries, seems better. When you long press a key is when you get accents. A feature not a flaw. Also after 30 seconds of no typing it sleeps, press key for a second to wake it back up. Another feature.

Bluetooth Mouse with Xoom or other Keyboard
Now that I changed the batteries and researched the long press and battery saver sleep feature for inaction, I have been trying to find a bluetooth mouse that seems to work well with the Xoom keyboard. Any input on this?
If you have a different bluetooth keyboard is there a bluetooth mouse happens to work well with your bluetooth keyboard?

I just tried out my logitech BT laser mouse with my logitech tablet keyboard for ipad with beautiful results. Even had a flash drive connected to my powered hub and could read it at the same time. This host mode option has made my nook a new machine. Now to get the webcam working.....

I was hoping this was true. Over in the usb host thread Moshe posted a picture of his setup. We discussed the mouse being bluetooth but found out that the logitech laser mouse is a wireless usb mouse. Still only one report from TheAmazingDave of quality concurrent use of bluetooth mouse and bluetooth keyboard. I can get them concurrently but when the keyboard kicks into sleep mode it locks up the bluetooth mouse pointer and force a hard reboot.
@ Dal and Verygreen. Do you think since the bluetooth mouse and bluetooth phone work on phone concurrently, that eventually we will be able to make them work on the nook concurrently?
Edit: I have loaded two apps Null Keyboard v2 and BlueInput. Not sure what they changed but I do not have the concurrent problem any more. The BlueInput only finds my Bluetooth mouse but does not connect. It does not find the Bluetooth Keyboard at all. The Null Keyboard v2 is suppose to hide the virtual android keyboard. This response is the first time that I have seen the Keyboard work correctly.
Spoke to soon, Xoom keyboard went to sleep and when I pressed key to wake back up, virtual keyboard showed up also.

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.

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.
