I have stock everything and I get "sorry but hid device is not supported on this phone." Is there anything I could do about it? Custom ROM? Which one? Gona try a few and post progress if any.
To elabotare a little further, cyanus kernel won't do since it does not have bt working. Now that eliminates pretty much everything I found so far. Am I scewed for good?

JM7 is the latest Eclair build for the Galaxy S (not the captivate)
Wondering if BT works and if Sync Schedule for Exchange is there - the biggest things wrong with previous i9000 builds.
Thanks for any info.

bluetooth will most likely not be functional with a captivate kernel since it's the kernel that controls that, the ROM just chooses how to interface with it. since they weren't designed to be used together, they probably won't "just work" together without heavy kernel modifications.
as for exchange, couldn't tell you (don't have any exchange accounts)

The Froyo build is working with BT. And the BT chip should be the same between devices, so I am not convinced BT won't work.

They also use the same wireless radios yet the fmradio app doesn't work even with the i9000 kernel. We also have the same gravity sensor/accelerometer, yet that doesn't work properly either. It's more than just kernel. It's a combination of the rom, the kernel, and hardware access. Considering these are issues specific to running software not designed to work with the captivate, they will likely never be fixed by samsung so a new rom won't make them magically work.
As for bluetooth working on froyo, it works in eclair too for pairing, just isn't fully functional with audio

OK, let me clarify as i am hoping for experiences not speculation -
BT audio for phone calls works fine in Froyo with a captivate kernel according to reports but not in previous Eclair builds - has anyone tried BT audio in JM7?

I would love to know where you say someone said "BT audio works fine in froyo with a captivate kernel."
we have no captivate kernel compatible with froyo. when you flash a froyo build, you're using the i9000 kernel because there are no captivate ROMs available yet. if you try using the eclair captivate kernel in the froyo i9000 ROM, your phone will not even boot (have to fix through download mode)

My typo -I know the kernel is specific to the version. - i have not tried a Froyo build yet - but the fact is Froyo BT works for audio as reported in other threads. So it is not unthinkable that Jm7 could have working BT Audio on our Captivate.
Again, all i am asking for is if someone has any first hand knowledge, not speculation. I know what the older versions have as I have tried those - just tired of flashing ROMs for now.
If you tried out the Nexus S rom ported to the galaxy S, you probably know that the bluetooth drivers are capable of pairing with a wiimote unlike the stock bluetooth driver. Does anyone know of any rom with the Nexus S bluetooth stack on it? or does anyone know how i could possible put it in my current rom i'm using (cognition 2.3b8).
Also, could anyone make an odin version of cognition 2.3b8 please? flashing to stock every time i screw it up is annoying. If you can't, that's fine.

Would want this as well!
I'd love this too.
Cm7 has this

Hi,
short question: Does the Cardock detection for P990 work on a CM7-Rom? I'd like to get myself a supported dock, but i wanna know before I spend any money.
Thanks,
Tobi.
Yes it does.
Hey,
it's me again..
first of all thank you for your answer. It really DID work with CM7.
Now I'm back to stock (GB, V20L or whatever it's called) and there it doesn't work anymore. That's a pity, because unlike with every single custom rom i tried i didn't have any crashes yet.
Does anyone else have this problem? Can someone tell me how to fix it? Or can someone recommend a stable custom rom which has this thing working?
Thank you,
Tobi.
Hi,
I have a bluetooth keyboard - IGO Stowaway XTBT01, and have successfully used this with CM7 and some older Samsung Stock roms in the past. I was hoping to use this on ICS but have not yet found an ICS combination of ROM and Kernel which work.
None of the recommended apps from market worked for me even though the keyboard pairs and sometimes (but most of the time doesn't say) 'connect to HID device'. But even with this, the keyboard doesn't work.
After flashing multiple kernels on top of JW1/JVZ and others to test this, I found that CF ROOT always works perfectly (maybe due to the fact that this is close to stock kernel?) and all of the other kernels do not work for me that I've tried (eg., Semaphore, Speedmod and others). I did notice that for kernels like Semaphore there are many options one can choose in the tweaks but I'm not sure if this willl improve the compatibility (eg., CIFS, TUN support and others--I don't know what these mean).
Does anyone know if there is a way to get the kernels such as Semaphore or Speedmod, etc. to work with this Bluetooth HID device? Are there settings to change you're aware of? I do miss the benefits of kernels like semaphore (speed+batt life+ color+sound) offer but am not sure if it's possible to get them working with this. Any thoughts appreciated!
Cheers,
CM10.1/Stock works
I know it's been a while and JB is out now, but wanted to leave a stick in the sand for future users. Here's my experience with JB:
CM10.1 nightlies (the recent 4.2.2-based ones) seem to work fine for me with the stock kernel. Switching in other kernels (tried Semaphore and Devil) seems to break the HID in the manner you described (pairs correctly, but no connection thereafter). I'm sticking with CM10.1 for the moment but investigating workarounds.
Update
Checked the logcat after one of these pairing failures on Semaphore, found this error:"Failed to open uhid, err:No such file or directory". Looking into this...
so my question is about kernels.i download multiple roms and try them.each of this rom has unique problem and its really frustrating what to install on,to work for all what i need.i need more ram,i saw the post and tutorial and made exactly all steps.anyway,ofc it didnt work.i found some replay says about custom kernel.so,if i install any kernel,does affect on rom,does version of android stays same????any kernel can be installed to rom i have atm??i didnt found any answer about that.today im dealing all day with this on forum,checking all ower for answers and it driving me mad cause i still cant comment on some post and i really need it.cause of that im spanding hours for my ace to have all what i need. big internal memory,bigger size of ram working camera and no lag rom.you my think im spanding time for a sh1tty phone,well thats true.another question:is there any kernel(tweak)for wifi???i have ace and huawei in same room.ace wifi works just sux as much as he can,whatever rom i put on,wifi going still sux,disconecting etc on each rom i installed.my huawei phone also ****ty phone more than ace,the wifi works non stop at full signal,black market works fast,google play works fast.on ace black market works slow as snail on whatever rom i install,google play works normal,on some roms slow and lagy.so i saw comments about wifi.people said about router to configure,well its just stupid,cause i have 2 phones in my room and i see what is going on.simply,ace has most sh1ty wifi ever and modem has nothing to do,my 2nd room is 5meters away from modem,just 5 meters and ace cant handle,thats really lame.so,any solutions about that i would be really apriciated .
If you change kenrel, android version will remain same.
No disconnect issue with me..
On rom JB CM10.
I had experienced that problem in CM7 ROMS.
And you cannot install any kernel on any rom.
See compatibility.
