Hi everyone!
Lately i've been curious about Ubuntu for smartphones and that's why i ask...Are those connections possible for our device in some way?
A while ago i connected a ps3 controller thanks to BT but i haven't tried anything else {i don't have a BT mouse or keyboard}.
Cheers!
I think that a mouse or a keyboard can be configured like the ps3 controller because it uses Bluetooth connection but I don't have any idea on how to do it

I was wondering if it possible to connect wireless (2.4GHz Micro Receiver) mouse Logitech V400 to Galaxy Tab.
Mouse in question is this
http://www.everythingusb.com/logitech_v400_laser_cordless_notebook_mouse.html
Any app that can simulate the receiver dongle?
No luck - I think
The Tab does not have either an IR or Radio transmitter that can send/receive a 2.4Ghz signal.
Why not get a bluetooth mouse? - mine works fine with the tab
Software to simulate a wireless receiver dongle? Um, no
As Bert says, you can just a bluetooth mouse, or you can try and track down the USB socket adaptor that Samsung was supposed to release for the SGT. I don't know if it's ever actually officially been released but if you want to try and use what is essentially a standard USB device, it might be your only option.

Nah... it's not possible. Just get a decent Bluetooth mouse... but check first if your ROM has the necessary HID support... I think the Verizon ROM makes problems in that case...
Just ask a friend who has a bluetooth mouse if you may try it, so you can be sure if the purchase of a new mouse (they are rather cheap though) pays off.
Just don't try Apple's Magic Mouse. I failed at pairing (Euro Tab, unlocked, unbranded, stock ROM)
T-Mo tab takes bluetooth mouse and keyboard. As soon as you pair, the cursor shows up. It's actually quite good.
Magic mouse to samsung gtab p1000
I was able to connect an apple magic mouse and Hid bt keyboard. The keyboard works great, the mouse scrolls and all, but no mouse pointer!;( im using a CM7 beta kang ROM. Ive seen posts for themouse pointer for cm7 but only for the evo4g, cant find anything for thep1000. If anyone knows please tell me, i would donate for this thank you.
wait, a magic mouse? I thought it would only run in Mac OSX and Windows!

Theres a difference between a wireless mouse and a bluetooth mouse. Wireless is a no-go.
use otg cable
Are there any wireless mouses out there that work well with the TMobile Galaxy Tab? I have the samsung dock and love it I just need a mouse to complete it! Help!

I think you will need a bluetooth mouse. I have a "ThinkPad Bluetooth Laser Mouse" at home. Worked fine, but I just made a quick test and don't use it generally.
Is there a store that they are sold at or is it online? Thanks for the help

Bluetooth pointing devices can be paired with the 7" Tab w/ Froyo, look for YouTube videos for proof.
One guy has a video showing a Logitech BT keyboard w/ integrated touchpad, and it works fine (search for "galaxy tab hdmi", and it should be one of the first vids by a British guy).
Pairing a Bluetooth pointing device (mouse, trackball, whatever) works and when connected, you will indeed get the familiar arrow-style mouse pointer on the screen. Even scrolling will work.
As a side note, a desktop-spec BT keyboard will do more than just type characters; for example, the Escape (ESC) key is like our back button, and the home hey is like our home button... and the cursor direction keys will move around from icon to icon on the screen.
I use an iGo folding BT keyboard, but I've been looking for an ultra-portable BT mouse for my Tab.... any recommendations are welcome.
I'm using a Logitech V470 CORDLESS Laser Bluetooth Mouse and it's working great with my Galaxy Tab.
Additional I'm using a Microsoft BLUETOOTH Mobile Keyboard 6000 (also working very well but German Umlaute (äöü) are a bit complicated because the SGT normaly only supports QWERTY BT-keyboards.)

I like the Mogo PC Card Mouse
Before I flashed Overcome I used a Mogo PC Card Mouse with my Froyo Galaxy Tab. Worked great eventhough I had to buy a USB adapter cord to charge the darn thing. It was compact and easy to pair, fit nicely in my pocket, etc.
After flashing Overcome however, I haven't been able to get the card mouse to pair. Anyone have any suggestions?
Anyway, while awaiting a solution to the pairing issue I dug my "really old" Think Outside Stowaway Travel Mouse out of the drawer, installed new batteries and viola! It paired and works great. It's just not as compact as the PC Card Mouse.
You can search for either "Bluetooth PC Card Mouse" or "Bluetooth Travel Mouse" on any of the electronic sales websites. A bluethooth mouse and keyboard are both indespensible to get full functionality out of your tab.
Did anybody paired a mouse to the Vivid? Any recommendations?
I already use my old Motorola BT keyboard, does anyone knows if I can pair a mouse and a keyboard in the same time? Don't know if BT allows multiple connections...

Why would you want to use a mouse with a phone? I don't think the phone even has a mouse cursor!
I think it does. I want to use HDMI out on my TV, and use it that way. Also watching YouTube and use the mouse to scroll and select from the couch or bed, more like a remote...

I haven't tried it, but I'm dying to see if the ps3 bluetooth remote works. Bluetooth mice didn't fare so well, tried syncing both the Apple Magic Mouse and a old Kensington bluetooth mouse, both paired but did nothing

by default the mouse wont work... android is not really equiped for it, however there are various app's which claim to be able to do it, and I have never been able to get them to work, I have a Logitech M555b that I use with my laptop.
@davidcampbell
what are theses app which claim to make motorola BT mouse working ?
I have a galaxy note with motorola keyboard and mouse. Keyboard is recognize but in QWERTY mode ...
And mouse does not connect althought she is paired..
EDIT : ICS resolved my mouse issue Keyboard is still in QWERTY mode, I'll wait for samsung ICS rom
My bluetooth mouse (speedlink sl6158 pwt) inteferes with my bluetooth keyboard (perixx periboard 804) causing it to start typing like thiSsssssssssss .
Both work flawlessly when connected in isolation to my galaxy note 2 phone. But when connected together, the keyboard begins to have the above issues. The mouse continues operating normally.
I have tried connecting the keyboard first then mouse second and vice versa but the problem persists. Also after the problem appears, the keyboard needs to be reconnected to bring it back to its normal functionality (disconnecting the mouse alone doesn't solve it, I also have to reconnect the keyboard). All devices are fully charged. Any idea how I can get both devices working? I suspect it's the mouse that's the issue? Any suggestions as to an alternative wireless mouse that would work with the abive keyboard? (Bluetooth is preferable).
Thanks.

Hello all! I have recently bought the Google I am cardboard, and it's
Amazing! I've found a game ( a flight sim) for cardboard, that needs to have a joystick
Connected, and asi do not have any specific android controller, I wanted to connect my ps3 controller. But there's a problem! I have connected the controller to the phone using the otg cable, and once I open the sixaxis enabler app, and tap on enable sixaxis, it sais "no sixaxis detected" . I have tried using a different controller cable ( leaving the same otg...I only have one of those. ..) , i have tried rebooting the phone, and i have also tried leaving the controller off until tapping "enable sixaxis" and also turning it on as soon as u connect it.
Also, the controller isn't getting charged when I attach it, nothing happens.
Is it the otg cable's fault? Or can I do something about it? Is there any other non-root method to connect the controller?
Thanks !!
Yo! If you are rooted you can use the sixaxis controller app.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller
It has a native gamepad setting that works flawlessly. Ive been playing odd world with native game pad. It rocks on Note 4.
I'm really not sure if it would work on Cardboard. I guess if the app is native gamepad compatible then it should be OK.

Sorry. Just re read and saw Non Root. My bad.
As far as I know you should be able to pair it via Bluetooth. if you have a cable Plug it in so it registers then go to blue tooth settings. And you should see it in there.
That's how it worked on my old desire HD.
Peace
Make it easy on your self and use an Xbox 360 controller. It works without software. But plugged in. The ps3 controller needs the six as is app and has issues on its own.
That's all or get the official controller for the note 4.
Does the Xbox one controller work on Android?

I think I'll have to buy an android specific / note 4 specific controller, I don't own xbox 360 ; ( Anyway, it might be that there's a problem with the cable, might be broken, because the controller doesn't even flash the red lights ( as it should whenever it is plugged in and charging)

You can get a 360 controller pretty cheap through amazon. the only other one I would recommend is the Moga controller because it works with Modern Combat

Cool, thanks, I'll give it a look , and decide, but first I want to take the otg cable back to the shop, and test it with the shopkeeper, hoping that if we find out it's broken, he gives me a new one!
