[Q] Bluetooth keyboard/mouse? - T-Mobile LG G2x

I'm running CM7, flashing latest nightlies daily. Does anyone know of a bluetooth keyboard and mouse that would work with this phone/rom?

Can you use a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse if you are running the stock rom?

In my attempts, no. It sees the device but doesn't work. I can't remember if it wouldn't pair or wouldn't connect. I tried with two different bluetooth keyboards, and have seen it confirmed by others.
Under CM7 any bluetooth keyboard and mouse will work in theory. Bluetooth HID is a pretty standard protocol.

Yea I've used it. CM7 natively supports an external BT Mouse and Keyboard.
I've used my Microsoft 3000 BT laptop mouse and a el cheapo BT thumb keyboard I bought off ebay.
I also lowered the DPI to 190 and used HDMI out to my 24" LCD monitor. The lower DPI helps make it more "desktop" friendly or else everything is VERY HUGE.
I haven't checked non-CM based roms such as Weapon or EB. Anything with a CM base should support it easily.
Awesome! I'm on Weapon 2.6 and loving it. I will give it a shot. Thanks.

I don't know about the mouse, but I know you can pair an Apple Wireless Keyboard if you're running a CM7-based ROM. You pair by first putting in 0000 when prompted when pairing and doing the same on the keyboard and pressing enter.
Though I thought it was stupid at first, hooking my phone up to my Logitech Bluetooth KB along with HDMI out has made an excellent laptop alternative. I haven't been using this set-up in a while because I can sync my GTab 10.1 wirelessly to my Samsung SmartTV.

Netflix and BT keyboard support?

Just want to confirm this tab supports Netflix (I know it took a while to get Netflix on the 8.9" version) before I drop the $400. Also, anyone try to pair a bluetooth keyboard and/or mouse and can confirm they work?
Thanks.

Netflix no problems.....
I've paired an apple BT keyboard, wiimote, and PS3 controller, all without issue.

Bluetooth mouse? Any that work?

Anyone have any bt mouses they use that work? Can you use one while using the keyboard?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Any bluetooth mouse should work I believe. I think you can have 2 devices paired at the same time too.
I use a Dell Bluetooth Mouse with a Bluetooth keyboard all the time. They work very well together. Now with Onlive Desktop, I have a very productive business tool with my Touchpad.
I bought my mouse used for $9.00 here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002G9J3MO/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details
Good luck!
I'm using a Microsoft Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000. Yes you can use a bluetooth mouse and keyboard at the same time. Pretty much any bluetooth keyboard and mouse will work as long as they use are HID compliant which almost all are.
Hell I'm using a Mac mighty mouse for it and it works

Microsoft Bluetooth Mouse 5000, Microsoft Bluetooth Keyboard 6000. Work great together on Ubuntu (haven't tried in Android, but there's no reason they wouldn't work).
I bought this mouse off amazon and it DOES NOT work with the touchpad. With cm7 it would work but be extremely flighty. With cm9 it will pair but will not function...I also was looking for a mouse to use with the touchpad....specifically for splashtop. Also the mouse paired hid.

It doesn't have the best review rating on Amazon, only 2.5 stars. It's probably just a bad BT mouse in general. If you bought from Amazon or a Fulfilled by Amazon seller, they have a really good defective return policy that won't cost you anything to ship back/return if its been less than 30 days. They let you print off a prepaid (by them) return shipping label.
You may have to pay a bit more for a better brand if that one won't work. I've never had an issue with Microsoft or Logitech mice. Dell, HP and possibly other OEMs usually have rebranded Logitech stuff so they are good as well.
Blueputdroid on my Droid 4 works perfectly.
I get high fives from my tech-inclined friends for doing citrix remote desktop from my touch pad using Firefox running on Ubuntu 12.04 running on cm9 with the Droid 4 serving as Bluetooth keyboard, mouse and wifi hotspot. It is a sight to behold.
If you have an android phone you might consider this.

Alright guys so I got a mouse but It won't pair. I explained in another thread why, but it pretty much won't connect and if it does the mouse movement doesn't do anything even though I see the cursor on the screen. It works great on my galaxy nexus though. :/

I tried my iMac magic mouse and bluetooth slim keyboard but none of them do anything (could be a hid thing)... they do pair, and the keyboard I can register and pair when I type the passcode. Has anyone tried these?
Also, for those using Splashtop, does it support the keyboard and mouse? Its such a hassle to click/drag or open the keyboard to type.
Am using an old BTM-100 Anycom BT Mouse. Works very smooth.

Haven't tried with webOS, but with CM9, both my logitech BT mouse and keyboard work like a charm
I have the Razer Orochi and it works fine.
Sort of mouse related....I have the Logitech Mediaboard Pro for the PS3 (keyboard + trackpad) and it's worked well so far.
Using a Bluetooth mouse made this tablet even more awesome.

how could I do this for unrooted phone to Cm9 touchpad use?
I am using the official Motorola keyboard and mouse. Both work great, though the keyboard needed special instructions.

How do you connect a bluetooth mouse?
Also, is it possible to have two different bluetooth peripherals working at the same time? (mouse+Keyboard)

Easy though? Connect your SGS to telly with tv-out and use a Bluetooth keyboard or attach an usb kind of plug-in on your SGS and connect with usb keyboard...
Et voila you can type and use whatsapp..

One my geekiest moments was hooking up my I9000 with the projector we had in the classroom and playing Manic Miner in a Spectrum emulator using a Wii controller. Although using my N810 as a bluetooth keyboard and mouse for my I9000 is also pretty geek.
BTW, PS3 controllers are the ones that use bluetooth (you can use them with the help of the Sixaxis app). You can only connect XBOX controllers through the USB port.
