maybe its not possible ?
i connected a WIFi Rii i6 keyboard to an sgs2 phone, using a otg micro-usb-usb cable, connecting the phone to the WIFI usb dongle. the phone has bluetooth and would have wifi already, but i didnt find any other way to connect it. the kayboard i believe only has wifi,not bluetooth.

There is an app called Wifi Keyboard that allows you to do that!
look for that app in Market. its free!

[Q] Atrix Keyboard with Charge

Thinking the Droid Charge supports the HID bluetooth profile, I purchased the Atrix keyboard; however, I cannot seem to pair it. I put the keyboard in pairing mode and then scan for Bluetooth devices. On the Charge I select the "Motorola Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard" from the menu and am given a message "Enter xxxxxx to pair with ...". This message disappears in less than a second and I'm given the error message "Unable to establish communication with ...". I never have the chance to enter the code on the keyboard ...
Any thoughts? Thanks for your help.
I believe I read somewhere that this was supposed to support the HID profile out of the box I'm not 100% sure though. You could try one of the HID drivers from the marketplace I think one is called blueinput or something similar. Post back if you get it working cause I would really like to have a wireless mini keyboard for this phone as well.

i'm not sure if this is helpful, but I paired a bluetooth mouse with my Charge, using no special drivers. I would like to know if a bluetooth keyboard would work with it though.

If you can get a mouse to work without having any special drivers/apps to support it then it at least means that the phone does support HID protocols which would mean that generic bluetooth keyboards should work. If the keyboard requires some sort of special driver that is installed after pairing it most likely won't work, though.

I should clarify and update this - the device I have is a bluetooth presentation remote/mouse. It can switch between mouse mode and presenter mode. It works for a few minutes, but then loses connection. It works fine with a computer, so I don't think there's a problem with the remote.
You can connect the Charge to BT keyboard and don't have to root..
Thanks to another member TylerMF you CAN probably pair the Atrix (also for Xoom) keyboard.
See his thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28133531#post28133531
He connected his BT keyboard to an Evo successfully.
I have a Samsung CHARGE and I had the same struggle, but followed his instructions and am now connected to both the Atrix/Xoom keyboard and a Logitech bluetooth mouse.
Very nice!

[Q] Samsung Smart Dock/USBOTG + Tethering?

Phone: Galaxy Note 3
I'm considering buying the Samsung Smart Dock and have a question and couldn't find the answer anywhere.
Basically I'm wanting to tether my phone's data connection to a Sapido cellular router to create a wifi network (I don't want to root and I don't want to Hotspot because of extra data charges). But I also would like to use my Note 3 like a desktop (output the display and add keyboard and mouse).
Right now I see a solution to tether through the micro USB connection, use Screen Mirroring/Allshare Cast, and bluetooth the keyboard and mouse.
I was wondering if the Smart Dock would provide the same solution? It could output HDMI, and you could add the keyboard and mouse using the USB OTGs, but the tethering connection is the question.
I'm hoping the third USB OTG port on the Smart Dock could be used as the tethering connection. So basically the phone would have to do USB OTG and tethering at the same time.
My question is, has anyone tried tethering through a USB OTG port on the Smart Dock, or is it even possible to use USBOTG and tethering at the same time?
Any other info appreciated.
Thank you!

Problem between a Wireless keyboard and Tronsmart MK908II touch response

Hello,
The device is Tronsmart MK908II, wireless keyboard is this: http://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/6271301163.html
The problem is that there is a lag between the keyboard commands and the response of the device. For example as you wiggle your finger on the touchpad on the keyboard, cursor on the TV screen does not reflect correctly and on time, and the same with keystrokes. Especially if the distance between me and the TV stick is more than one meter is almost impossible to perceive commands.
At first I thought it was the keyboard, but after I connected it to the computer, I saw that it works absolutely perfectly, even from a distance of 5-6 meters, there is no delay when you press buttons. Unfortunately, not so with the tv stic... Pls tell me what to do ??? The device has the last Android 4.2.2 version, there is no newest at the moment. Does it need to install a program to respond better wireless keyboards? The keyboard come without software, just plug and play.
Help pls!
Keyboards are a drama! I use droidmote to control my sticks via tablet or phone. The stick needs to be rooted and you install a serverapp on it which you connect to via Wi-Fi from your client app on your other devices. Once working I ditch my keyboard.

I fixed the problem! I use a different port on the device, which is micro USB. Use transitions and include in it the keypad transmitter. Apparently the standard USB does not have enough power to supply it correctly.
Nice catch! Thanks for the update
