Hi, I was wondering if this was possible. I actually was looking to see if there was such an app..
Anyways, just started using my PS3 again online and I didn't have a keyboard. Figured there might be an app in the market for that to use your phone as a bluetooth keyboard for the PS3.
Any takers on this request??
+1 This would be great, also an app to use our Androids as a mic and headset would be great
This would be great. The best way to get this to work would be for the phone to act a a standard Bluetooth HID. Then you could use it on anything. Keyboard or mouse.
This would be the bomb!

We've been asking for this since Droid 1 came out. No one has been able to do it.
Too bad.........
This makes me sad face

I have the dock and have plugged in my ps3 controller but I cant seem to figure out how to get it to work... any suggestions? There is a video out there but it is in french.

Did you make sure to power on the controller with the PS3 button in the middle?
I had to try a few time to get it to work because it kept turning on the PS3.
Sure did. Works great but I think we can buy any El cheapo controller now. I wonder how the analog sticks work n64 emu or ps2 emu.

my generic PS3 style controller does not work on the transformer, I get a green power light, but it doesn't work in any app or game.
official PS3 controllers are still £36 for a second hand one in Game or Gamestation, so I havent got one yet to try.
I have just earned hdmi cable and cradle for my sensation and the second thing which comes to mind is to remote control my device. Is there any way to this via Bluetooth?
I have heard and read about some gamepads that should work with android, those would practically turn my sensation into gaming console of some kind. Is there anyone with working setup like this? Phone sitting in a cradle, connected to TV and controlled by gamepad to play games? I would really appreciate any feedback etc. Thanks!
I am talking about gametel gamepads.

I know you can use a Wii Remote to control your android tablets and phones, I've tried that on my tablet and it works quite good.

Anyone have any bt mouses they use that work? Can you use one while using the keyboard?

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.

Very cool! I may have to try this!
I've wondered.. would that be possible? I know that its possible to stream to an 1920x1080 monitor via MHL and i'm pretty sure i can somehow connect a mouse and a keyboard via bluetooth - or?
Which MHL Adapater and BT keyboard/mouse combo would you recommend? Does ANY BT keyboard/mouse combo work with our phone?

I have a microsoft wireless mobile mouse 3500 i dont know to sync
Hey bud,
I have a similair goal in mind and have begun gathering gear for my desktop replacement system lol. I have a monitor already. I just picked up the iHome bluetooth keyboard from my local store here. Dude, paired and connected in a snap. No extra work needed. All i do is turn bt on on the phone, turn the keyboard on and it immediattely defaults to the keyboard for text inpuut. I am in the process of researching how to remap the keys for optimized android functionality as this model is mapped out for iphone. but the media keys work well. volume up and down. pressing the play key automatically starts the media player and plays music. I am actually typing out this post on it right now in my car with my phone docked to my windshield lol. i love it. the arrow keys work in most apps to scroll through and select stuff. Now all i need is a mouse and mhl adapter. I gave up my pc when the hardrive croaked because my adroid phone does alll i need.
I started using android phones as a desktop replacement since i had my G2x. this phone is much easier to accomplish the task with. and with cloud storage we dont even need to use usbhost to latch on an external hardrive. Best of luck dude.

Logitech has a android specific keyboard. I think these have dedicated android keys for home, back and recent apps.

well as ive already shelled out the cash for this one i think id rather keep it. it reminds me of the old dell keyboards too which is awesome. i love the simple no frills design. the keys on this model feel great too
