I am a new XDA user and have been looking through the XDA forums to see how to repleace the MS stack in my mini but there is alot of contradictory information out there
I have Ipaq BT headsets that I want to use on it......can anyone help or point me in the right direction?
mate i have been trying to get this to work for a month now with no luch, i ended up offering a 200 eur reward to the person that gets this to work. BUt still nothing
HELLO? Why on earth would you want to do this right now. Until they get all the LOADS of bugs out of the Widcomm stack why would you want to mess with the mini's perfect MS bluetooth stack.
I would love my mini to have bluetooth headphones but I am not willing to go back to that terrible stack.
because the widcomm stack supports so many different profiles then the MS bluetooth stack
Agreed Walshie. Besides Widcomm having a better variety of profiles, it is more stable that MS......Why do you think the IIs has a Widcomm stack? HTC is just being cheap with the Mini. I have used both and let me tell you, MS is more unstable and less useful with a multitude of BT products.
Agreed
I think the Guest above must have been speaking about the Blue Angle Broadcomm Stack, and I agree that was a piece of crap in the beginning.
Now, as I read and understand, the Blue Angel ROM Upgrade plust the new Broadcom toll makes the BT Stack pretty darn attractive.
One of two things have to happen. Someone has to provide a stable and good procedure for switching out the MS Stack to Broadcom or someone has to come up with a toll for the MS Stack that provides good functionality.
HP bluetooth stereo headset with Magican (mini) possible?
Hello,
I have been browsing this forum for hours now.
I cannot figure it out if it is possible ti replace the bluetooth stack of the i-mate (mini) in order to use the HP bluetooth stereo headset
I just bought this headset and i am not sure anymore if i can use it.
If it is possible (i would be so happy) could someone give us a step by step, with all the files and all the instructions.
It is pretty difficult to get it from all the threads when you are not an expert.
Thanks in advance.

Hi all,
I just thought I would ask. One thing that keeps me from thinking this little beauty is the best damn PDA ever is that its IR is to weak to be a remote control. Is there anyway that the IR can be "turned up" via a reg hack or is it the IR hardware. Any one have any ideas? Also, does any one know that if I cut out the heavy dark plastic piece covering the IR and replaced it with a clear piece would it make the IR stronger?
Thanks in advance for any input.
Todd
Don't think that stuff would work. It's the hardware that's the problem.
Some guy did a "hardware hack", basically sticking a small lense over the IR, which extended the range. Damn ugly though!
I just buy a £8 multiremote

hi, actually it works for me, i am using Griffin Total Remote
just that the distance is not as greeat as IPAQ PPC that has a consumer IR
All,
Does anyone know where I can get hold of a BMW car adaptor for the inbuilt Bluetooth system (you know the one in the centre console)?
I have just received a 5 series and cannot find a suitable adaptor. They exist for iPhone and Blackberry but not for a Diamond or any other HTC device...
Can anyone help me?
All the best,
Sam.
also looking for this snap-in adapter
Hi, have you found a suitable BMW snap-in adapter for your HTC?
I have a htc diamond touch and also looking for an suitable adapter.
Please let me know if you found one
Best regards
Bart
I've just got a BMW and am also interested in a cradle for a HTC Diamond or Diamond HD.
In the last 12months since the above post has anyone came across a suitable cradle? I'm primarily interested in using it to boost the signal strength with the external antenna.
The closest thing I found was this DIY guide: http://forums.5series.net/index.php?showtopic=60462
I'm reccomending checking out http://www.brodit.com/
I've just used it to buy mount + holder (Molex version) for my BMW 3 and TouchPro2
It's working very nicely connecting to bluettoth sysetm, and what's more important just looks nice
I know what you mean. I am also looking for cradle adapter for HTC Desire Z to put in original eldow space in BMW5, but it looks it is not existing.

Anyone recommend a slim bluetooth keyboard with track pad for tab s 8.4?
I am not looking for the keyboard cover. Its bulky and I want a separate slim keyboard
Sent from my SM-T705 using XDA Free mobile app
Well, I currently have the Logitech Trackman Wireless trackball mouse connected to the Tab S 10.5. The logitech wirless dongle is connected to an OMG usb cable to the Tab S and it reports as both a Keyboard and Mouse. II do not have a Logitech keyboard that uses Logitech's universal wireless USB apapter dongle, but I'm sure it would work too if I had one. I am very supprised at how well the Logitech wireless trackball mouse works when navigation through Android. The scroll wheel even works! I also connected an old HP Bluetooth keyboard to the Tab S which is what I'm typing this response up with right now. It is funny that the Samsung keyboard/case for the Tab S doesn't include a touchpad, and neither does the Logitech keyboard/case for the Tab S. So, I'm going to wait for the perfect Case/Keyboard with a Touchpad combination since using the wireless mouse (Logitech trackball in my case) is really great!
Have the samsung smart keyboard with track pad which works great for typing and mouse. There aren't any other features like volume control or play, stop, etc. But it works great for what I use it for and since I bought the smart case I didn't want to spent the money on the Samsung keyboard.

Oh yea the samsung smart keyboard is Bluetooth so works great.
I am using an apple wireless keyboard. Anything smaller doesn't make sense, as it won't improve over the onscreen keyboard.
I have a rapoo e6700 which works great, qwertz layout though. Blue back matches blue cover nicely too

I am thinking of adding a keyboard for my fire HD 10 tablet 2017.
I am thinking of two options.
1. Bluetooth keyboard
https://www.amazon.com/Arteck-HB030...pID=51K3rbjy8rL&preST=_SX300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch
2. using my Logitech K400 keyboard. It has a unifying reciever. I am thinking of buying a OTG adapter reader.
https://www.amazon.com/Inateck-Adap...qid=1519484873&sr=1-18&keywords=micro+usb+hub
I am thinking I can connect the unifying reciever to it, and that way I can use my keyboard, (which has an included trackapad) on the fire tablet.
My question is :
1. Will the unifying receiver K400 combo work?
2. Will the trackpad works (does it show an arrow?)
3. Should i just get the Bluetooth keyboard instead, and how the Bluetooth connectivity?, (no dongle , no mouse
4. Any Bluetooth keyboard anyone would like to recommend??
Thank you.
I got this for my dad's 10": https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GIZHR2A/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
My review and pictures are under the review titled "Great value". I haven't had any issues with it (neither has my dad) and the keyboard feels pretty close to a full size layout.
I've been able to use a Bluetooth keyboard with a built-in trackpad with my HD 8 on 5.6.0.1.
I've also been able to use a separate USB mouse and keyboard simultaneously with an OTG cable and a USB hub. If the receiver works on another device (e.g. laptop), then it should work with an OTG cable.
If you carry around your tablet different places a lot, just go all Bluetooth if you can.
I'd suggest going Bluetooth as well. You can get cases with keyboards built in that connect via micro usb really cheaply, but they are more aggravation then they are worth. I bought one for my mom's 8" HD and I could instantly tell that bluetooth was the better option. I wound up buying a Logitech Type-V case for an Ellipsis 8 (because it was only $8 at Walmart), made some adjustments and so far so good.
I bought a Bluetooth XTREME keyboard at a National Wholesale Liquidators store in the NYC area a few weeks ago. They were about to be sold out. It was selling for $12, with no refunds. Took a chance on it, and it works perfectly with my 2017 fire hd 10. My tablet is attached to the FINTIE case.

Nice! Glad that worked out for you. I'm an Long Islander- there's a National Wholesale Liquidators a few towns away. I'll have to drop in when I get a chance
Bluetooth keyboard.
I bought (in Lidls) a SilverCrest keyboard for £15 which works very well.
I don't think that the USB dongle would work, mainly because Android is using a VERY similar kernel to Linux (almost identical) which is why we have SuperUser hacks.
Linux requires the use of drivers to do really anything, but Android isn't Linux and doesn't have any native driver support.
Best bet is to use a Bluetooth keyboard, and don't worry there is literally no latency. It works amazing.

It also works on my mom's HD8, apparently. That being said, the keyboard and USB dongle were already paired on my PC

I recently got a new Logitech 9-10" Tablet Keyboard Case Universal Folio since I got another Fire HD 10 on Prime day. It's not worth the retail price or the $32 Amazon is asking for it since it doesn't fit the tablet perfectly- the grips will apply pressure to the volume or power switch. I put a few pieces of foam on the grips to prevent that from happening and it works well enough. I got it new for $18 from a seller on Ebay. They have 9 more if anyone is interested: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Logitech-9...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
I actually had a Logitech Ultra thin Bluetooth Keyboard that was for the iPad 2 packed away and it actually works very well with my Fire HD 10 (2017). I use it with Office and WordPress.
anything like this?
Is anything like this type https://www.brydge.com/products/brydge-10-5-ipad-pro-keyboard available for the hd 10?

Not that I know of. I wouldn't be surprised if a generic equivalent was around for Android tablets but you will have to make sure of the dimensions.
I have the Logitech K400 and have the Unifying Receiver plugged into a OTG USB cable. My Fire 10 will not open the onboard keyboard with it plugged in, but neither will it record keystrokes from the K400. Not sure what the problem is.
