CM9 Bluetooth keyboard - HTC Sensation

Hi guys
I'm having an issue with the apple wireless keyboard working with CM9
this happens on both official nightly CM9 (I'm on that now) and on OpenSensation.
I have had a couple of reports from other users that some other bluetooth keyboards work - but nobody that i found that specifically uses the apple wireless keyboard.
This is what happens:
I turn on bluetooth and go to pair the keyboard. half the time the pairing takes a few goes, and often i have to restart the bluetooth. When it does connect is says "connected" on the bluetooth settings.
however, there is no input or reaction from the keyboard. It's as if the keyboard doesn't know it's connected. disconnecting and repairing doesn't change anything and neither do full wipes or cache and dalvik wipes.
Anybody got any thoughts on this?

bluetooth keyboard
usually the bluetooth recognition keyboards are "specifically" for those phones.... if other ppl can use it, perhaps its because their kernel settings have been changed or it doesnt detect for some incompatible issues and it allows them to use the keyboard, do u have a custom kernel and or custom version of htc, from the development section? usually a custom kernel can modify this setting and allow your bt keyboard that's not made for the htc to work since it will bypass the verification part

Hi, thanks for the reply.
As I said I'm on official cm9, I tried a different kernel to see if it would change, but no, by default I'm on the standard cm9 kernel, whatever that is.
I believe that open sensation used faux (correct me if I'm wrong), I'm not certain about cm9. Either way, other people on open sensation had other keyboards working for them and hopefully they would have mentioned if they were using a different kernel...

no more thoughts on this?
faux kernel knocked out wifi and BT on CM9 nightlies, so that's out of the question.
any help would be great!

CM9 + Apple BT Keyboard
Same behaviour for me (I'm on a Nexus S though). CM9 nightlies, Apple BT keyboard pairs fine and says it's connected but then no keystrokes are registered on the device... nothing happens when I type. Frustrating!

[Q] Bluetooth HID support HTC Hero

I flashed my HTC Hero with the Elelinux rom, which is based on the CyanogenMod. One of the reasons for me to root and flash a new rom was to get a Bluetooth keyboard to work with my phone. Sadly, I dont get my bluetooth HID keyboard to work, even trough Cyanogen supposedly supports Bluetooth HID. I tried the app Blueimput in order to help things, but this doesn't seem to work either.
I really would like to have this on my HTC Hero, so therefore my question is:
Does anyone know a rom, radio, app or a combination of the latter to make my bluetooth keyboard interact successfully with my HTC Hero?

[Q] Suggest a ROM for bluetooth audio and Wiimote support??

What I'm looking for is a custom ROM that will let my Infuse 4g connect to a Wiimote so I can use it for emulators. I've tried CM7.2, and it allows the connection, but the bluetooth connections to headphones and speakers is completely awful. I use bluetooth all the time so this doesn't work. I've also tried Zeus and R3velation too, and the bluetooth works fine, but they can't connect a Wiimote. I read somewhere that it has something to do with the bluetooth stack, but I honestly don't know what that means.
Does anybody know of a custom ROM that has working bluetooth audio and the proper stack to allow Wiimote connection?
Of course it needs to be stable and have the basic functionalities.
Thanks for any help!
I am sorry to say that our phones biggest weakness seem to be the bluetooth as I wanated to do this also and it did not work. I even brought a small bluetooth keyboard to try to do the same thing and I could not get it to work.

[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.

iPega gamepad in CM10.1p13

Hello,
This is probably a long shot but I was wondering if anyone running the latest official CM10.1 preview has an iPega Bluetooth gamepad and if it is with working for them? Mine was working when I was on CM 9.1 but not since I went to CM 10.1. It pairs but none of the apps that had worked with it before recognize the input using any input mode. Other than that the ROM seems to be fine and hats off to the devs for the great work. Thanks.
So it turns out that I am having the same issue with a BT mouse (MS 5000). It will pair but not connect. I have unsuccessful tried several things like resets, reboots, and some of the bluez related fixes posted on other forums related to this specific accessory. (From what I have read, bluez is not the method JB uses for bluetooth anymore so that did not work.)
The controller is supposed to just act like a BT Keyboard (in the way I have configured it). I am wondering then: has anyone running this rom successfully used a BT Keyboard or BT Mouse?
Thanks.
As a final update I sold the ipega and never did see it working on CM10.1. However I did pick up a Moga which works well with the universal drivers in the play store.

[Q] Bluetooth issues since CM 10.2 unified, existing in all versions of CM since then

Dear all,
i was searching the forums for similar threads already, but none are specific enough to my special problem :
Since CM 10.2 started to make unified builds for all MOTOROLA devices, i am suffering from serious problems on my XT897. I can connect and pair any BT device fine, but during using it all of a sudden bluetooth will switch from external BT speaker to the internal speaker of the phone, and this can't be switched back anymore.
In the recent CM 11 versions it will also sometimes not pair with the hands-free if i enter the car and have BT activated in the phone, i have to deactivate first in order to have it paired correctly, but this is acceptable to me.
I was using the last nightly built specifically for the XT897 for a long time still for exactly this reason, i need my phone for the job and it is a big problem if a customer calls me in the car with my hands-free, and all of a sudden the conversation is terminated (well, i can still hear the other guy on the speaker of my XT897, but that doesn't help while driving).
Is it possible that the BT modules used in all newer CM builds are sub-optimal for the XT897 ? If so, could anybody consider reverting back to the old BT module for the JBBL builds and/or the XT897 ?
I'm fighting with BT issues also with 4.4 roms (also previous version).
I have random cases where the other party either can't hear me, or I'm really quiet. They sound fine to me though.
Sometimes BT audio cuts out during a call, or the phone won't transfer the call to BT despite being paired. Tried multiple different headsets.
Would be nice to have it work like it should, I also need BT for work.

SOLVED: now running a stripped down 'stock' JB rom, with xposed for a few necessities.
No more BT call etc issues. Let me know if you want details.
