I'm running one of the Gingerbread Experimentals on my gTab. On the last ROM I ran which was Vegantab, when I paired my BT mouse, there was a pointer that showed up on the screen. On the experimental ROM I have now, the mouse pairs and "works" but with no pointer. Can anyone tell me how to enable the pointer or where I could start looking. I've searched and can't find anything.

Hi,
I know that there have been threads about mice and keyboards, but I want to find out if there is anyvway to get either bluetooth or USB mouse with pointer and keyboard working with stock TNT?
If it's not possible w vanilla stock TNT, would installing either pershiit's or clemsyn's kernel allow it to work?
Thanks,
Jim
I am interested in using the G Tablet as a thin client computing device. This would give me ultra-portability and all-day battery life. It would allow me to keep my personal life on the tablet and use remote desktop for business stuff. This way personal and business life coexists on the same device without security concerns. This isn't going to work though unless I basically make my tablet into a netbook.
I've done some research on bluetooth devices but don't have a working bluetooth mouse or keyboard yet, which is the reason for my post.
I have a Microsoft Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000 and so far have not been able to get it working. I tried VEGAn 5.1 and it connects but doesn't pair. I installed BlueInput for Android and couldn't get the mouse working with it either. See teksoftco.com for info on this app. It is supposed to add bluetooth HID support to Android 2.1 or newer.
I don't have a bluetooth keyboard yet - not worried about that until a mouse works.
I ordered a case with built-in USB keyboard and it is adequate. A clip blocks the mini USB port though, so I may do surgery on it to move it down a bit. The case is from witglobal.com.
Any suggestions on what ROM to work with to achieve my goal? Any other info from someone who may have this working?
I don't want to use a bluetooth device with a USB receiver - It'll just get lost or broken and be in the way. I have a dock and I think that is going to work out for my desk - just working on the mobile part.
BTW I really like the 2X Client for remote control. Only thing I am disappointed in so far is the audio doesn't seem to work.
Thanks All!
I have cyanogenmod 6.1 working with a HID mouse - no add-ons. Caveat now is getting the market working. I installed it per wiki instructions but no apps show up...off to more searching!
I use my Zpad (Malata T2) for exactly your purpose.
I guess the Zpad ROM supports this out of the box?? (I'm running the stock ROM).
My mouse is also the Microsoft 5000 Mouse (little white and black one). My keyboard is off ebay, here is the link (except I have the black one):

I use Xtralogic (by far the best RDP client)
At saying that it's not 100% perfect. Here is what doesn't work:
Delete Key
Ctrl C or V etc
Right Mouse Button (you can emulate by a long left press)
Mouse Wheel
Some special characters like; < > ^ ~ ` and probably others
Wifi & Bluetooth have issues working together, but 3G and Bluetooth is fine
I'd pay for a driver that fixes this if anyone knows of one.
Cheers, Mal
Hi guys, i m new to android juz bought a new HTC Sensation, trying to pair with bluetooth mouse but when paired and connected i could not see any cursor or pointer on screen and it only allow me to move the htc sense from page to page when i move the mouse left and right. I need this pointer because when i do HDMI mirroring on TV via MHL adpater it can make my move easier on TV screen.
Pls help me how can i solve it or any application or software needed to overcome. thanks in advance.
I bought a logitech F310 gamepad today, after hearing so many good reviews on it with this specific device. I have tried using the gamepad with games and I just end up spinning in circles, or when i try to configure, only the left and right on the DPAD work. When i go into Joy2Touch, it recognizes the bits of every single movement, and tells me everything about what i am doing and how i am doing it. It also recognizes the device and its model. Then when i go into JoystickTests, nothing at all is registered. I ended up just giving up and going to play some PCSX ps1 emulator, and the controller works almost perfectly fine (except for the fact that ab/xy are switched and i can't switch them back)
UPDATE: Through some appwork on JoyCenter, I have gotten almost every control to work, except that I always have both joysticks turned ALL the way up and to the side all of the time when ingame on any app except in an emulator. AB/XY are still swiched in my PS1 emulator, have not tried others and will keep it updated.
UPDATE: Something that I have noticed in JoyCenter is that when I load up the driver, I see that the dots for the joysticks for all the way left and all the way up are ALWAYS on, as well as two unknown dots, no matter how I calibrate or try to fix. This seems to be the only problem by now, but whether or not I have JoyCenter running or what controller (between stock gamestop tab controller and f310 Logitech, as well as a generic ps3 controller) So I have narrowed it down to something in the tablet's bios or base software hat is glitching up my USB/Bluetooth control input. Could I have a lemon?
I am running the latest CM with its stock kernel. I have also tried JB and PA with their stock kernels, in the latest versions as well. I am completely lost and stumped, and if anyone could help me out I would greatly appreciate it.
cm-12.1-20151201-0115-UNOFFICIAL-p5100 and gapps-5.1.x-20150404-minimal-edition-signed installed with clean install.
Okay so far.
Bluetooth mouse pairing okay.
Mouse wheel and mouse buttons work.
But there is no visible mouse pointer.
Tested with two mice, an old microsoft mouse and a new samsung, both showing the same behavior.
Is there any solution or workaround?
By the way, this is a great forum.
Installing custom roms on my old p5100 is a new topic for me for a few days.
The forum here was a great help, without I would never have come so far.
Thanks to all members especially android-andi!
I forgot to mention that I use the Bluetooth Mouse in conjunction with the Samsung Keyboard Dock.
So I get a nice little platform for editing scripts, texts and with AIDE some light Java developing.
A working mouse would be very helpful.
But even without charged Keyboard Dock driver no mouse pointer appears.
Is nobody except me missing the bluetooth mouse pointer?

Its not just a mouse problem but a problem in software part ( disabled cursor layer )
look at what Android-Andi has said.

Mouspointer fix won't be merged by CM as it's a workaround only to fix it. Need to find a different way of fixing it.
