For the ipod touch/iphone as well as for android phones, there are allot of apps where you can use your device as a mouse/trackpad/keyboard for your pc, now i'm lookin for an app where i can use my hc wildfire android 2.2 or ipod touch as a mouse for the tf, but still nothing found yet,
Somebody an idea?

blueputdroid will do this, however it requires root and potentially a custom rom. At present, i can use my dinc as a trackpad and keyboard, which is convenient when hooked up to hdmi/away from me. Hope that helps!

Dell Streak is lucky to happily work with bluetooth keyboards (see on Engadget). For the Nexus One, I don't think this will work out of the box. The best solution I found so far is BlueInput.
Can you recommend portable keyboards and keyboard drivers? The Apple keyboard isn't so portable and affordable while BlueInput is sort of expensive.
So you mean to say that the Apple Keyboard actually works with the N1 with the BlueInput driver?
Yep http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=629416&highlight=apple+keyboard
Just to point out that that thread (that I started) is about using an apple keyboard with the "hidd" binary, not "blueinput" which I bought and found unuseable.
I'm currently using a cm6 daily and find the built-in BT-HID support to be fantastic.
...on everything except the apple keyboard (but I already knew that the apple keyboards aren't quite straight HID)
I'm currently using a slightly hacked up one of these:

If I were you I'd just wait for the release of cm6, it looks pretty schweet.

CM6 has Bluetooth HID keyboard support?? Coolness!
What keyboards would you recommend for that?

With the back shaved down as it's a bit thicker then it needs to be.

I am looking to buy a portable keyboard for on-the-go office document editing. This is something that is important to me, and I would rather purchase the correct peripherals then try to find a workaround for my HID keyboard.
What out of the box keyboard will "just work" with the N1? If anyone knows of a specific model that would be great. Or some guidelines. Will the SSD palm type keyboards work out of the box?
Just for those who are interested in BT keyboards but don't follow CM's bugtracker. CM6-RC2 fixes the problem with apple bluetooth keyboards. I now find myself popping it out and using my N1 to edit documents on the train (that I sync using dropbox)
It is _awsome_

You meant, you're using the Apple keyboard, right?
wildmonk's new kernel (in the dev subforum) also has the fix for using Apple bluetooth devices. haven't had the chance to try out a bluetooth keyboard, but thinking it's all the excuse I need to buy one.
I'm looking into purchasing the Logitech DiNovo Mini Bluetooth HTPC keyboard+mouse, in a couple weeks.
Will report into this thread as soon as they arrive with hopefully a demo video to go with it.

Can we get a thread going for supported keyboard and mice for the various roms that are available.
I know the MS natural works in VEGAN MOD, but what about the others. I am running TNT 4.2.2 and 2 logitechs, 1 MS are not recognized.
Keyboard - WITGlobal.com keyboard + case
Mouse - ASUS ROG 3000DPI (too sensitive though) and Dell crappy mouse
They work perfectly well. Also, if you didn't see in the Android Development section, USB hubs work so you can plug mouse and keyboard in at the same time for some Quake 3 gaming
This would be more appropriate in the G-Tab Accessories forum than general. It will just get lost in here.
Just sayin'...
Good idea Mods, please move this to accessories.

Logitech G-15, been working since 4.0 release of TnT Lite, dunno about any others.
Your G-15 worked? i didn't even get lights when connected. Even connected while Gtab was hooked to adapter.
Might have to play around some more on that one.
I have one of those old apple keyboards working and the extra USB ports on it work as well so you can plug a mouse or flash drive as well.

Menotek mini flexible bluetooth keyboard
Microsoft BT 5000 bluetooth mouse
I have a Logitech that works with Vegan. It's not with me now so I'll edit my post later with the model number.
ETA: The keyboard is a NetPlay, model number Y-UC29.

it is a 3 year old g15 so perhaps adifferent revision?
I can confirm, I have a 3+ year old G15 that works as well, but it will sometimes shutdown my device when I disconnect it.

Is it the aluminum version w/o 10 key? I tried that version and no dice.
Does anyone know if the apple bluetooth keyboard or the bluetooth magic mouse work? Thanks
hi all, i was just thinking, recently i got a dinovo mini bluetooth keyboard and intend to use it with my captivate...
thing is, if we can use a normal hid profile keyboard with the captivate (and its special bluetooth stack), shouldn't a common pc bluetooth gamepad also be able to connect? or HID profile is not enough? ps3 and wii controllers dont work because they don't connect with just hid...
am i wrong? i dont own any bluetooth gamepad but i would like to know if it could be possible
thanks in advance
peace
Good question ill be following this thread.

Just installed CM7, and tried the Wii Controller IME.
IT WORKED! I haven't gotten it to work with any of the emulators (NESoid, SNESoid, psx4droid), but this is an encouraging first step!
yeah, thing is CM7 is not "pure" captivate, i understand the benefits of that rom, but for now i dont intend to flash it, sticking with cognition for now...
so... CM7 uses a different bluetooth stack apparently (bluez?) with better compatibility, but what i wanted was a simple pc gamepad that uses HID... BUT it doens't exist lol...
i started to google around and in fact there is almost no pc bluetooth gamepad, most wireless ones are RF and the only one i found was a weird thing that MSI released...
so... back to ps3/wiimotes/etc....
or to wait for the bluetooth gamegripper
Bluetooth keyboard and mouse works on my captivate using stock stack. Don't know what profiles were in use though.

I got a zeemote off ebay, and after downloading the bluezIME off the android market got it to work with all my emulators! Has anybody bought and tried this icontrolpad??? The Zeemote is just too small for my hands its difficult for me to play games with, so im still looking for a good controller.
As I am still on the hunt for a good bluetooth controller for my cappy, I got a second zeemote for some multiplayer action on my emulators! I am not getting the BluezIME to connect to more than one zeemote at the same time? does anybody know if there is a way to sync both zeemotes? or possibly install BluezIME twice for each controller?

Thread closed, there are other threads opened.
Recently upgraded to ICS using OTA files. I'm rooted, unlocked and super CID'ed!
But I still can't get it to recognise USB devices not even a memory stick. Mainly been trying to use a 360 pad on the USB/BT Joycenter app.
I take it HTC in all thier wisdom has decided to leave out something that a galaxy nexus can do. Why can't they just give us full ICS and then lay their crap over the top. I still can't get landscape on main screen
Dear all,
I am looking for a solution to connect my TF700 tablet with my phone (HTC Touch Pro 2) to access internet on the tablet when out of home (no wifi).
I can do it with my laptop and my HTC phone thanks to active think through usb.
When connecting through usb the HTC phone on the TF700 tablet, the TF700 does not see the HTC phone.
Trying with bluetooth, the HTC phone tell me that the tablet support only the NAP mode.
The HTC phone does not propose to share internet connection through wifi.
The TF700 is with ICS.
Any simple solution ?
(I am not an developper of android application.)
Regards.

Just download Foxfi from Google play store (no root needed), install it on your HTC your tf700 should works like a dream. It also has option to use as bluetooth also. Best of both world.
i think the touch pro 2 is an old winmo phone if im not mistaken. If thats the case there may not be a solution since i dont believe winmobile supports the right type of tethering for the infinity to connect to it.

Really?? it's not android? OK, then you should find a HTC pro 2 forum or try to search on google for solution. I think it's too old, just throw it away and jump on the Android wagon...like the wild wild West.
