I've roamed the forum and didn't found much about this possibity.
Could a wm6 ppc such as a Kaiser could be used as a bluetooth keyboard and paired with, let's say, a PS3 ?
I know there is a BT gps forwarding app (gps2blue) and so it doesn't seem totally undoable...
any thoughts ?
Have a look at http://www.mulliner.org/bluetooth/xkbdbthid.php .
I wanted to port it to wm6 but I do not have enough knowledge and experience in ppc programming. It uses GTK and Bluez and runs on linux, so I think porting it would mean rewriting mostly everything (the bluetooth part as well as the window system part).
But who knows, there are such great developers on xda-dev. Maybe someone has enough time to do this ? If so, I'm really interested.
you could use an application like TabletRemoteControlSuite of SallingClicker. they don't implement Bluetooth HID protocol, but they can be used to remotely control keyboard and mouse over bluetooth / wifi...
Thanks for the link. Sallingclicker is a nice concept but requires a host client, which is a no-no for using in non mac/pc environment.
xkbd-bthid is actually closer to what i'm looking for, sadly not running on wm6...
true, all tools I know require a 'server' application running on you computer...which can be annoying
mabye you can make over your request to Teksoft. They already made the BlueMouse application which enables your PDA to function as a real bluetooth mouse...so I guess they have enough knowledge to create a similar application for a virtual bluetooth keyboad HID, but then it will probably also be shareware instead of opensource...
EDIT: while looking thru the forum at Teksoft, I just noticed that they are already working on a Bluetooth Keyboard HID for theire program Bluemouse...http://teksoftco.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1583&highlight=keyboard
Hu...no, from what i gathered from the teksoft site, what i'm looking for is the exact opposite: pairing my kaiser AS a standard bt keyboard, not pairing it WITH one.
thanks for the link anyway.
you're right, I mixed them up...
hi,
did you already found something for wm6? I'm looking for exactly the same function.
regards
for now this is the solution which is the closest by far:
anyRemote
otherwise tuxmobil.org has some programs listed, but nothing really compareable to xkbd-bthid. sadly.
BlueTooth Windows Media Player control???
Does any one know If I can use my ppc to control windows media player remotely??
Thread Moved to Question&Answers Forum
You can try GRemote, you can connect it through ActiveSync/BT/WiFi, it can use any SIP as keyboard or the hardware keyboard (it has an option for the side of opening the hardware keyboard, for Touch Pro and TyTN II (they open in different directions)), it can be used to control WMP, and not shure about WinAmp, it can be used as TouchPad and as a GameePad. It can be used as Logitech MX Air, but your phone needs a G-Sensor.

Salling clicker is a really good solution for that.
i'm using it to control the mouse/media player/winamp/screen....
there are many scripts out there for this app which let you control a lot of aspects of your comp.
Gremote did not work with my device or computer. too hard to set up. spent an hour and a half before I realized that it is in the diamond section, and probably will not work for me anyway. The rest of the stuff I found is for java.
This reallly bugs me. didn't anyone at MS think about using a ppc to control wmp through activesync??? I bet they thought of it at apple.
F""K it. I give up.

GRemote should work on other devices, altough without acceloremeter some parts will not work completely, but I expect the keyboard and mouse to be working. I'll try myself on my wizard this week.
Did you try Salling Clicker? Very nice tool with very good integration for windows mobile and itunes remote control. and you extend with many script from their forum.
PPC - Keyboard
I need to be able to either plug my Touch Pro into the computer via USB cable which i use to sync or connect it via bluetooth by plugging in some sort of USB dongle.
Either way, I will need to be able to not have to install activesync or any other drivers. I need a plug-n-play solution.
I will be working on multiple computers which have just been re-imaged at work. I do not want to swap keyboards & mouse back and forth between them constantly; however, swapping the dongle or USB cord to my phone wouldn't be as bad. I cannot install software on these PC's to support this.
I would like to plug it in and it recognizes it as a keyboard/mouse just like it would with a real keyboard or mouse.
How would I go about doing this?? Does the Salling Clicker software support this??

no it doesn"t... so far I couldn't find any application wich will work without installing some kind of 'server' on your pc, you always need a PDA and PC application. The apps which are working like this are: SallingClicker (many nice extra features for music and presentations), GRemote (freeware) and PPC Table (nice interface).
My small sony ericsson very simple mobile phone supports a bt mouse and bt keyboard interface. I don't need anything to be installed on pc (except bluetooth stack) and it will recognize my phone as if it is a standard bluetooth mouse or keyboard. Such an application would be very nice for Windows Mobile...
Hi all,
The other day, while playing PS3, I realised I was too lazy to type messages using the PS3 controller to people. I wondered, not having a bluetooth keyboard or mouse, if there was any easier way of input to write messages. I took a look at my Nike, and came up with an idea.
Would it be possible to use the Nike, or in fact any HTC device, or Windows Mobile device with bluetooth as a bluetooth keyboard?
I figured it would be possible, and looked around for some kind of software, but I have not managed to find any.
Is there any developers on here who could perhaps point me in the right direction to maybe writing some bluetooth software (if, of course, this idea is possible). I'm no beginner to programming, so I'm not asking for help with that. I'm simply wondering where to start? My preferred language is C#.
Thanks,
Ben
So i found my old T-mobile SDA today and I am trying to use it with my pc I currently have the prog MyMobiler, its nice but kind of limited. I want to be able to use all my phones functions straight from my desktop. I want to use it as a sort of bluetooth/Wi-Fi adapter and extra screen maybe. Any input wil be appreciated.
I have a touchscreen w. querty phone (iPAQ hw6515) that I have been hoping to use as a touchpad & keyboard for my media center via bluetooth.
Found no software to date to do that on WM2003SE.
Sad to throw away a perfectly good phone.
Come on guys lets hear the idea's
I know someone has got something to say. I don't want to waste a still operating win mobile phone. Help me out guys.
Hi as the title suggests I want to create an app to turn our phones into a bluetooth keyboard/mouse for pc/ps3
So any help I can get would be much appreciated. My biggest hurdle is understanding how the bluetooth stack works and how to emulate a bluetooth HID device. I'm finding it very hard to get any information.
Any one got any pointers?
there are already a couple of apps that do this.
mobile remote from mobileSRC is one of them.
Unfortunately mobile remote (dont know about the others) doesn't support the widcomm bluetooth stack found in new devices (like my rhodium)

I'm just about to get a touch pro 2 as well so thats one of the reasons why I would like to make my own app. It seems that the tech required to make this type of app isn't well known as I haven't been able to get any help/info anywhere. Hopefully I will stumble upon something and if that happens i'll upload something here
Hello,
So I looked a bit on the forum but couldn't really find what I'm looking for, I would like to know if it's possible with my smartphone connected to a computer to catch what the keyboard is typing.
Thanks you
