Does anyone know which software driver will work with the Orange m700?
Think Outsides's website says that this is "currently untested", but I'm sure one of the other drivers should work

the driver You download from their web site works perfectly for me,altought they say it is untested.
Which driver?
When I put in the model number, a message comes up saying that the driver is untested, and there is no option to download a driver.
Which PPC model number driver are you using?
If you don't need special keys, just pair it and be happy...
Here is the driver.
Just uncompress and run the .exe with your Triny sinc.
Regards,
Thanks. That file is in Spanish, and I had a go but could not make head or tail of it. lol
Anyway, I found out that by connecting to www.thinkoutside.com from the PPC, and not from the PC, it prompts you to download the relevent (WM5) driver.
I did that, but still it does not work. It says that a Bluetooth system is not detected, and says it needs the Socket Drakar stack.
I tried pairing, but it won't recognise the passcode of 0000 or 1234 - is there another passcode to use?
Tipe in 1234 on the Trinity, then do the same on the keyboard and hit Enter...
Hallelujah!
Thanks Vasil, and everyone for your help.
I typed 1234 on the device followed by the keyboard and it paired! I was waiting for another screen before typing on the keyboard, which was where i went wrong
I spent over two hours this afternoon messing with the damn thing, plus all the other days, but I'm happy now.
excellent, cheers. i have just performed the same thing on my kaiser and got it to work perfectly.
doesnt work with wm6
I think it just doesnt work with wm6.
I installed the application for dopod 818 pro but doesnt work. It work by simple bluetooth pairing but cant utilise most function of the keyboard. anyone know how to make it work on trinity wm6?
Go to Mobility website http://www.mobilityelectronics.com/support/Drivers.asp
Select the HTC Pocket PC and Prophecy.
I've been using these drivers with both Igo bluetooth keyboard and mouse with my Trinity no problems.
The driver will instruct you to disable inbuilt input device support.
You have to press Ctrl+Left Fn+Right Fn keys to make the keyboard discoverable.

I tried with my wm6 trinity but still it says no bluetooth system detected. Any idea / help?
Thx
Hi folks,
got a problem that has nothing to do with new roms for a change:
my original Tomtom gps mouse (is it called mouse in english too?) is working fine with Tomtom 5 and is also in the Bluetooth device list. But: i cant use it with any other gps application as i cant pair it. Neither gmaps nore stuff like GPSmeter is able to connect, it always denies pairing cause of wrong password. I tried the 0000 as said in the manual
someone got an idea? btw the mouse is TomTom Wireless GPS MkII
thanx
i managed to pair my MDA compact IV(HTC victor, redesigned diamond) with my targus bluetooth thumbpad(asked for password twice, 1st one i hit next, 2nd one i hit cancel and the keyboard wass added to the list of devices) but i can't type.
even worse, it seems the keyboard itself doesn't even know it's paired to my phone.
using the software from targus is useless, the v1 says the code on my keyboard is wrong and the v2 needs registration through a site with a broken registration page.
the blue connect light stays blinking the whole time.
now i read before that someone else got it working on a diamond, so could anyone help me through this problem?
EDIT: fixed it.
i uninstalled all traces of bluetooth keyboard software, and then re-paired it but i filled in a security pass.
previously this failed because i entered a numerical pass and forgot to hold the sym(symbol) key while pressing the number keys
Hi,
I have one of those generic mini bluetooth keyboards. It works on my Asus A696 (WM6.0), apart from the fact that it does not recognize the "fn" key; which is needed for some less important things (modus change, contacts, ...); but also for some rather important things like the question mark "?" .
I did some research, and I installed BlueInput, which is included with most "mini bluetooth keyboard"s (but apparently not with mine). Anyway, installed it and it did not recognize any keyboards. Turns out that it is not compatible with the broadcom bluetooth driver, which is used on my Asus device.
So I downloaded the special "broadcom version", and now it works. Not all "fn" functions do, but at least the more important ones like the arrows and the question mark do.
Point is, (although I've set BlueInput to auto start) I have to put my keyboard on discoverable mode always before I can use it, and reconnect it manually in BlueInput (have to retype the "binding code" etc.). So if I disable bluetooth (which I often do to preserve battery life), if I put the keyboard off, if I soft reset my device, ... I always have to go through all that hassle again; quite stupid if you know that with the built-in Windows keyboard support, it immediately automatically connects at the moment the bluetooth on my device is on and the keyboard itself is on.
So my basic question (if you're not too tired after this long intro )is: how can I use my bluetooth keyboard with which driver, having the same facilities as just connecting through Windows Mobile AND being able to use important functions through the "fn" key like a question mark?
I already wondered if Mobile 6.1 or 6.5 has better bluetooth keyboard support (I can upgrade to both); but I'd rather not just try it out before I'm sure that it would function.
I hope anyone can help me out solving this issue;
Thanks in advance,
Liopleurodon
I got one of the hp touchpad bluetooth keyboards on sale with the touchpad. It pairs easily with the touchpad, but if I try to pair it with my android phone, I get prompted for a passcode.
Does anyone know the bluetooth passcode for the keyboard?
***EDIT
Figured it out: apparently android by default doesn't have the capability yet to sync properly with bt keyboards by itself yet (Cyanogenmod might work.) To make it work, I got an app 'Bluetooth Keyboard Easyconnect' from the market. Just turn on bluetooth, open the app, and turn on the hp touchpad keyboard (in that order) and wait - it will sync automatically. Don't try to force the pairing in the bluetooth settings page for your phone.
If you do have a rom that allows manual pairing from the bluetooth settings by default, to sync you need to enter a passcode on your phone when prompted (anything you want - i used 0000), and then type the same code on the bt keyboard and press enter.

Try 000 (three zeros) or 0000 (four zeros). That is what most devices I have tried use.
HP official bluetooth keyboard
I got this for $28 at best buy, and while it works decent with the touchpad, I am wondering: Can it work with other devices?
I got it to pair with windows 7, but when I type, nothing happens. Has anybody else had any success? Something I'm not doing perhaps?
Every comment I've seen about this says the keyboard works only with the touchpad. There is some concern that the keyboard may not even work on the touchpad if/when Android is ported to it.

So can your confirm that this keyboard can indeed work with android phones/devices? I just received my purchase of this keyboard, and it looks and feels great. But I don't want a bluetooth keyboard that will only work with WebOS.
Thanks
Works fine with android and webos. Haven't tried it with anything else but it seems to be a generic bt keyboard so I'm sure it's within its capabilities to work on windows or mac.
I have a stock Evo 3D. And it works that.
I can confirm it pairs with the iPad 2, so (presumably) it should also pair with other iOS devices. The iPad asks that you punch in a code to confirm the sync, but I wonder if it's static?
Will this work with Win7?
I currently use the apple BT keyboard for Win7 but used "KeyTweak" to remap the key strokes in the registry for buttons such as delete and the media keys. Everything else works just dandy (cept the damn Ctrl key is in the wrong place...stupid Apple)
Would it be safe to assume that the Touchpad keyboard would work the same and require remapping of a few keys here and there? I see one person above said that they couldn't get it to work with Win7, but then again many people say that it doesn't work with Android and it definitely does...
Thank you all!
I have been able to pair up with my touchpad, 2 android phones, and a ps3 so I am assuming it will work on any bluetooth enabled device
I can't freaking get mine to pair. I can clearly see it, but after putting in the password (I've tried 000, 0000, 1234, 0123, 01234, and ABC) it just keeps asking if I want to pair it again. I'm assuming I don't have the correct PW. Anyone else have one that might work? I'm running the latest CM7 nightly and using the CM7 BT options.
Also, I downloaded that app mentioned earlier and it like.. doesn't work at all.

im having the exact same problem, im running MIUI on my s2 and just cant get it working, with or without the app within the app the keyboard just doesn't show up >_< i just want to pair it up so that i can get confirmation that it will still work when i flash android (when its available) to my touchpad :/ please help!
My Hp Keyboard works with Windows 7 and my dell streak 7 running honeystreak, no app needed. They both ask me to enter in a number upon pairing and they both work great.
I used this app to pair a new HP Touchpad keyboard I bought through Craigslist yesterday for $40. Worked within a few minutes of poking around. My Samsung Infuse is rooted, thanks to a modded Rogers ROM someone shared here. Pairing took a bit of figuring out, mostly because I have Droidwall running and hadn't granted permissions for the app. Then I installed Null Keyboard to get rid of the thumb keyboard while typing. Works AWESOMELY well in QuickOffice and other text editors.
My only complaint is a weirdness in the native email application which makes the keyboard unusable there. I can type random-length text, anywhere from a few words to a short paragraph, then it freezes for a few seconds, then I get a 'text copied to clipboard' message and the new message or reply I was starting vanishes. Not to the Drafts folder or Trash, just gone like it was never there. Doesn't happen with any other input method, as the email application seems generally stable and good. Of course I can write messages in a text editor then copy/paste them into email, but that's a bit of a pain. Anyone heard of this glitch?
Otherwise the HP keyboard is amazingly compact and comfortable to use. There are a few keys which don't seem to work at all and some weird key functions I'll have to learn, like the sideways arrow keys navigate vertically and the vertical arrows do nothing... and how Control A doesn't select all text etc, and how symbol and numeral entry uses odd key combinations, but for basic text entry it's solid. With a good external keyboard for this phone my jump from Windows Mobile is complete, I'm happy to have made the leap.
So I finally got my keyboard. It paired with Win 7 no problems. My issue now is that the "power" button did not remap to the "del" button and program "KeyTweak" doesn't even recognize the "power" button key stroke for me to remap it.
Any ideas? Thank you!
when using the keyboard with android, the keyboard looses connection when it drops into hibernate. It doesn't re-establish connection and must be re-paired from android....am I doing something wrong?
so is it only me but the delete button only deletes a letter (in a word document) at a time and does not continuously delete even if it's held down?
Holding down any key causes it to repeat for me, including the delete key. This is with a Samsung Infuse.
So what am I doing wrong? When I got to connect with any of my Android devices, I get to the password screen and it just won't connect after that. I've tried 000, 0000, 1234 etc, with no avail. Is there a special code?
When I first connected the HP Touchpad keyboard I had to enter a 6 digit code, if memory serves. It wasn't generic - rather a proper code, something you couldn't guess at particular to the pairing request. I entered it (there was a time limit too, a countdown... maybe, but I've been doing a lot of setting up of stuff on this thing and forgetting more than I remember), and since then have not been asked for it. Connecting is a bit twitchy the odd time but mostly I just toggle power on the keyboard off and on again if it's taking more than half a minute to connect. I typically see a pop-up 2 to 4 times on the phone saying the HP keyboard is connecting before it actually does.
