[Q] Acer e100 Bluetooth - General Questions and Answers

This seems like the sort of problem that has simple and obvious solution but I have looked everywhere and not found one. I bought a mini bluetooth keyboard to use on my e100 because texting with the resistive touchscreen is pretty much the worst thing ever. The keyboard manual claims that is natively supports WM6.5 which is what the e100 runs. When I put the keyboard in pairing mode the phone finds it as "Bluetooth mini Keyboard" and is able to pair with it. However unlike my other bluetooth devices such as my headset which works without a problem the option to connect is greyed out. The difference seems to be that the devices that have the option to connect have services to be used from them. I have scoured the internet reading about bluetooth stacks and have failed to find a solution. Any help much appreciated.

Noone has any ideas?

Connect bluetooth keyboard ?

Hi
I'm wondering if anyone managed to pair S710 with bluetooth keyboard. I was trying to do this with Logiteh diNovo Edge no success .
Altough S710 can discover keyboard it's timing out during pairing after pass number is provided. No problem with S710 on other bluetooth devices (GPS, bluetooth) or connecting logitech to other bluetooth devices (laptop)
Anyone else succeded with external keyboard ?
I know the one included is great but....
Mine works fine with the Stowaway Ultra Slim BT keyboard.
In fact I would go as far as to say it is brilliant
The BT mouse doesnt work though
I am havign the exact same problem pairing my Microsoft Elite BT Keyboard with my HTC Touch Cruise... Did you find a way around this yet? Please PM if you have a solution...

Ms bluetooth stack vs broadcomm stack

My touch pro seems to have real bluetooth issues with my JVC KD-NX5000 stereo system. My kaiser worked flawlessly with it but with the touch pro it wont pair at times and when it does it wont let me use any of the many functions that the stereo offers (voice dialing, downloaded phonebook, etc) I assume this is a problem with the ms bluetooth stack and was wondering how tough of a job it would be to switch to a broadcomm stack or if anyone has thought about making a custom rom with the broadcomm stack. Just curious if Im the only one with issues with wm 6.1 and bluetooth.
i have the same problem with my diamnd anbd jvc car audio
Slightly OT rant:-
I had the opposite problem with pioneer + broadcom...
Pioneer only looks for handsets which identify themselves as phone or smartphone, and my device identified itself as a pda.
I actually told pioneer about the problem, and rather than forwarding on to the developers, I got a stock reply:-
"This phone is not on our compatibility list" (so we don't care)
So I went and got an MS based phone (you can change it to smartphone with a regedit).
Never buying pioneer again...

Similiar issue with my opel carkit.
Tried to make the broadcom stack working, but got a memory error when opening its blue tooth manager.
After uninstalling, bluetooth didn't work at all anymore, needed to perform a hard reset.
Has anyone successfully installed the broadcom BT stack on the touchpro/raphael?
I found that my Touch Pro would pair and then drop out when connecting to my Kenwood DDX5032 car stereo bluetooth adaptor. I couldn't dial from the Kenwood kit, couldn't use A2DP (wouldn't even connect), and really couldn't use any Headset Profile functions at all.
I persisted with pairing and unpairing in different ways (you can initiate the pairing from the Kenwood itself rather than the phone), but nothing really worked.
Then trinode's post about changing a registry setting sent me down that track and now everything is working fine
I found the relevant setting from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=290871, which is [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\sys\COD], and then changed the HTC TP default value of '5898764' (decimal), to the value from my old Dopod838Pro, which was '5374228' (in decimal).
I didn't even need to repair the Kewood to the HTC TP - it just worked straight away, as if it said "Oh, sorry, did you want me to work? I thought you wanted me to be in 'stupid' mode! My bad - everything will work now."
So all good, and thanks to trinode for pointing me in the right direction.
Codenix.
After hard-resetting my Touch Pro to fix another separate issue, now this problem has come back and this time changing the COD value hasn't fixed it. It would appear my previous post may have attributed my success to the wrong thing
The search for the answer continues!
I found a firmware update for my Kenwood's bluetooth adaptor which fixed the problem. I don't know why it ever worked at all before this update, but there you go!
I'll create a separate thread to share this with others in case anyone else out there has a Kenwood bluetooth kit and a Touch Pro or a Diamond.
Thanks.
The thread I created re the Kenwood is at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2835805
@ Trinode
Pioneer sent my unit back, but never told me that my phone was not supported. Where did you flag the smartphone in the registry? Did it fix the BT connection/unti reboot issue? I had a AVIC F500BT (sold it) now have a AVIC X910BT same issue as the 500 had.
@ Trinode. I found the hack , tried it, but it still doesn't resolve my issue. Are there any other mods out there for the BT Stack prob?

Help needed to pair Bluetooth Keyboard with Touch Cruise via Bluetooth

Hi all..
I picked up a HTC Touch Cruise from another site member and am loving it.. I am coming from a Kaiser that got...uhh. damaged.. I am finding I am missing the keyboard and I remembered that I had a nice bluetooth keyboard that I have previously paired with a WM2003 device I had (HP iPaq).. And for the LIFE of me I can not get it paired correctly...
The keyboard is a Microsoft Keyboard Elite for Bluetooth model 1002.
The phone sees the keyboard, and tries to connect.. but here is the problem...
The USUAL way to pair this keyboard is you search for it (phone does this), click pair, (check).. then you are supposed to pick "pick a code for me" and then type that code in the keyboard.. But there never is that option... I don;t meed to sound like a noob, but can someone give me a step by step or some other method? Thanks in advance...

[Q] Bluetooth keyboard key repeat issue

Anyone else having issues with their SGN 10.1 and bluetooth keyboards. I had been using an Adesso BT keyboard with my iPad for a long time and it worked great. Switch to the SGN 10.1 and now I'm having issues where it'll behave like a key is stuck and go bonkers. Usually I have to power off the keyboard to get it to stop. Power back up and connect it and it's completely random how far I'll get before it goes bonkers again.
So, I thought I'd give another keyboard a try to see if it was something about the keyboard. Not so much. I picked up a brand new logitech BT keyboard (with solar recharging) and I'm having the exact same problem. WTF is up with the BT stack on this thing? Mouse works fine, Jaybird BT headphones are flawless, WiiMote and SixAxis controllers, also good. Simple BT keyboard, unusable because of this issue.
I have the latest OTA update and hope it's just a software issue that will be solved with JB which supposedly swaps out the BT stack, but God only knows when Samsung is going to get that pushed out for US owners of the 8013.
Anyone know what voodoo is required to get a BT keyboard to work reliably with the current firmware.
I'll also put it out there that I have SwifKey installed and have tried the BT keyboard in every combination of SwitfKey active, not active, enabled, disabled, even uninstalled... Same results.
Thx.
