Having problems connecting via bluetooth with diamond. I did it with my laptop. The diamond asks for a passcode. Inputting anything but blank comes up with an error. After accepting the incoming connection, it asks for another passcode, this time I can't input nothing, when I input something I get an error of incorrect passcode, if I click cancel, it doesn't type.
Any ideas?
Same problem here!
I connected a logitech dinovo mini with my diamond with no problem.. diamond ask a passkey, write with keyboard and then work...
sup guys..
I have a LG MS25, it's an american model of LG KS20.
At the firt time, when i tryed the IRXON keyboard I had this problem.. but then I start to look at the options and uncheck some bluetooth criptography and security parameters.. and it works!!
Now i digit the passcode and the connection is acepted.. but sometimes, when the passcode have a "zero" char it don't works.. but just sometimes.
I'm really glad that it worked, because i got it from eBay and spent R$130,00, (almost 50,00 United state dollars) because of the importation taxes of brazil..
bluetooth cryptography?
could you be more specific. You have an LG MS25, a windows mobile phone. Where did you find these settings to disable?
edit: i found a link explaining something about this, but I can't find the setting

Also, an update.
When presented with the passkey on the phone. I click next, then I must click the enter key on the phone. The phone than accepts the connection, but puts the keyboard in disconnected devices.
That's it.
I don't have any services listed under the "select services to use from this device" for the keyboard.
the problem is the bluetooth stack i think..
ms25 is the same of KS20.. widcomm bluetooth stack i think..
I've recently bought a HTC touch Viva (opal).. and I was havin problems to connect (never happens after input the key on keyboard) , and the bluetooth stack is that one from Microsoft.. so after some research i've decided to try the BlueInput 1.5 RC4.. it's not a freeware.. =/ but it works perfectly.. i think it'll work on diamond too!
I can't seem to find a definite answer to this: Has anyone had an Apple bluetooth keyboard work with their g tablet? There's a laptop like case for the ipad that has a bluetooth keyboard that I would like to modify for the g tablet, but I'm not sure if the bluetooth keyboard that comes with it would work.
Thanks
I tried my friends ipad keyboard case but couldn't get it to connect to the g tab. Wish I knew how

Same here. I have an iPad (company issued) with the keyboard but I can't make it pair with the gTab. It sees the keyboard and asks for a code and I've tried 0000 and the classic 1234 and neither seems to allow a connection.
A while back when I was looking for something similar and found this.

At the time the seller claimed it would work on any bluetooth enabled device including Android devices even though he doesn't list it in his description.

I read that you can pick any code you want, then type it on the keyboard and hit "enter".

I tried that just to check but no dice. In order for me to type it on the keyboard it needs to be paired with the device. It doesn't pair so that didn't work. It was worth a shot though.
I tried using a seperate device and that didnt work either. Maybe some hack????
I tried typing on keyboard too and that didnt work... thought about it but no go.

I enter "0000" and it paired, but it shows up as paired, but not connected.
I tried..same result. Wouldn't pair
Hi all,
Sorry your having problems, what you need to do is get blueinput
its on the apps store, it works kind of.
Its been a few weeks since i set it up and used it,
From what I remember you have to install the apk into the system apk section on your tablet then just load the app and select the blueinput keyboard then it works.
it is limited and I lost connection a lot but as far as I could see it was the only way to get it to work.
Yes i used this with the mac keyboard, there is a topic on it somewhere in the g tab forums, and I believe it was a tutorial how to get it fully working.
If you guys cant find it I will do some digging or reinstall it and tell you all how to do it.
Yeah blueinput is what others are using, with that said most bluetooth things require a different program to get connected which sucks. They should have at least gotten bluetooth mouse and keyboard working in the Android OS by now...
actualy i found the post where all of the info is at.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=869747&page=4
also gunsjoe there seems to be a way to do this without blueinput.

Hey everyone I wanted to share how I got the "Logitiech Tablet Keyboard" (model #: 920-003390) to pair with my G-Tablet.
My G-Tablet is running CyanogenMod 7.0.3-Harmony (uses Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread).
On the tablet:
Turn on bluetooth:
Settings -> Wireless & Networks -> Bluetooth
Go into bluetooth settings:
Settings -> Wireless & Networks -> Bluetooth Settings
(turn on keyboard, I hit the "connect" button on the other side of the keyboard however this may not be necessary; bluetooth icon on keyboard should be blinking)
Under "Bluetooth devices" on the G-tablet find the "Logitech Tablet Keyboard GEN" and click on it.
It'll ask you to enter the pin. I tried entering "0000" and it didn't work so after some searching around I did this:
When it asks for the pin enter "0000" and after you click ok... immediately type on the Logitech Keyboard (not the tablet!) "0000" and press <ENTER> key
If done correctly it should read, "Connected to hid device" if it says, "Paired but not connected" then hit a few keys on the keyboard to wake it up.
I haven't tested it with other Roms or versions of Android (the keyboard is made for 3.0+ so if you have that installed on your G-Tablet and the ROM supports bluetooth then it should work out of the box) but if it does work on a different ROM, Android version, etc please post here so others can get help!
Thanks!
Thanks, this really helped me with my Atrix 4G
Just wanted to give thanks where thanks are due...yesterday at work we had a blind gentleman (who only spoke spanish, as well) come in and want to pair this Logitech Keyboard (for Android 3.0+) to his Dell Streak tablet (running Android 2.2). I pulled up xda on my phone and sure enough here was this tutorial and it worked like a charm! He was incredibly grateful so thank you OP for this tip!
I recently bought the logitech keyboard for my g-tab running brilliant corners and I have tried this method many times with no success. I had to download an app called BlueInput and it works just fine with it. The android function keys don't work but i'm typing on it now. I didn't really want to spend $13 on an app for it but who am I to complain when I got the keyboard on a cyber Monday deal for $39. But if somone knows why the function keys don't work and how I can get them to work it would be much appreciated.
I just bought this keyboard an followed these instructions and it work for VEGAn_TAB VEGAn-7.1.0-smb_a1002.
All buttons seam to work but the HOME key.
not sure why?

Check this out: youtube video "/watch?v=T15jYEc2QKg" (paste it after .com) it works for me into a samsung galaxy ace with cynanogen gb 357
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.
market link: https://market.android.com/details?id=net.mybesttools.btkbservice&feature=search_result
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.
Has anyone had any success getting this device to work?
I've got the Gingerbread update. I can pair with the keyboard but it says I'm not connected. "Paired but not connected". I've tried some of the free bluetooth keyboard apps, BlueKeyboard JP and BluePiano Demo, but no success with them either. I have got this to work with my HP Touchpad and my friend that had another Android phone got it to work easily.
I got it to work!
Verbatim 97537 Wireless Bluetooth Mobile Keyboard pairing on a T-Mobile G2 running Gingerbread.
I got it to work on my T-Mobile G2 running Gingerbread Android version 2.3.4. It is not an easy connect or obvious. The trick is that I had to un-pair and pair again the keyboard each time I want to use it. It doesn't work unless it's a fresh pairing each time.
1. Go to the Market and download and install BlueKeyboard JP. I've currently got version 2.1.6.
2. Go to Settings/Language & keyboard. Enable BlueKeyboard JP. Select BlueKeyboard JP settings. There are a few nice tutorials on You-Tube for pairing a Bluetooth keyboard to your Android with this app.
3. Go to Bluetooth settings. Pair bluetooth keyboard. Turn on Bluetooth. Scan for devices. Turn on the Verbatim keyboard. Set the "Pairing" button on Verbatim keyboard. If there is a previous pairing, you need to Unpair the keyboard and redo the pairing and the keycodes on the phone and the keyboard. You should see "Verbatim Keyboard" "Paired but not connected."
4. Go to a Google search box. Long press and hold, select Input Method of BlueKeyboard JP. You might see a message saying you are "Connected..." then a pause and "Connected." Type on the keyboard and see your keystrokes appear in the search box.
If if starts saying
"Connecting...
Please don't touch keyboard.
and tries 3 times, it's not going to work. Redo the pairing again.
I almost gave up on this, but I'm happy I found a sequence of steps that works for me.
I just got one of these. I'm running cyanogen, and I followed the instructions I found on amazon, and it worked just fine, no software needed. http://www.amazon.com/review/RDBOFP...&ASIN=B004L9LT2E&nodeID=172282&tag=&linkCode=
Ok, it types fine. I can't find out how to bring up the menu from the keyboard, the hotkeys doc at http://www.verbatim.com/index/support.php?lang_id=1&cat=24&action=supportitems&pid=11477 says it's alt+esc, but that didn't work. And the "home" key doesn't seem to work either. But I'm ok with that.
Instructions:
In Android:
Turn on blue tooth.
Added step-Make android device "discoverable".
Scan for devices.
Keyboard:
Turn on the keyboard.
Push the "Pair" button with a pen.
Android:
Select the keyboard.
It will ask for a 4 number password. Enter any 4 numbers.
Press OK
Keyboard:
Enter the same 4 number password you entered in Android.
Press Enter.
I couldn't get it to work on a stock G2 without the extra software. But it did work out-of-the-box on a HP TouchPad running stock webOS and also Cyanogenmod.
Does anybody know if it works with Samsung galaxy Ace?
