Grasping at straws here, but has anyone been able to map any of the Oid emulators or PSX to function as a controller? Due to the iffy multi touch response of the Gtablet, the virtual pad is not very playable for emulators. Definitely the device, since Incredible and Droid X work decently with vpad.
People have reported keyboards working (another question- how people got them working), so wonder if anyone tried.
Yea works great. I did it at work last night

TnT Lite 2.0?
What keyboard or method (usb or bluetooth)? Probably not bluetooth (if TnT), since no way to currently adjust the input keyboard option.
Thanks
no tnt will not let you choose other input methods, as far as i know there is not a mod or fix for this either. it really stinks

A little confused then, since this contradicts other posters- IF they are using a TnT based rom.
I would say I need to test myself to be sure, but already have. Like you, Crim, I had ZERO luck getting ANY usb device to work that I tried. Bluetooth or USB.
Not sure what to make of reports of success. Only thing that seems to make sense is they are not using TnT based firmware. One person reported wifi usb controllers working, which is as likely as the viewing angles improving
I know they meant bluetooth, but the point is the info is getting a tad convoluted.
Real simple:
Has anyone gotten a usb or bluetooth keyboard to work with the TnT Lite 2.0?
If "yes":
1. Bluetooth or USB?
2. How did you get it to work?
3. What model & part number for the device?
4. Are you really using TnT 2.0?

1. USB. i used a dell keyboard and a lenovo keyboard and they both work. they are generic keyboards with no special keys
2. i plugged it in, i rebooted the first time because someone else said they had to do that. but i tested plugging in without reboot and that worked for me also on both keyboards.
3. Model No. UPC300-2.2 .... is this the one you needed off the back of the gtab?
4. yes im using tntlite2.0. in my 'about tablet' it says for model number "GTablet-TnT-Lite" and when i installed it i only followed the directions for the 2.0 but i can double check if you know a place i can check the actual version
5. usb mouse did not work for me with or without reboots. the laser in the mouse did turn on and the mouse received power, but the gtab did nothing. i even opened an emulator to try to map the mouse to some keys and it did not pick up anything

ok, maybe i worded that poorly. i was able to use a usb keyboard and that qualifies as another input method. but as far as selecting another input method other than the stock tnt keyboard that is a big no go(wiimote, swype, stock android keyboard, swiftkey etc...)but yes i plugged in a standard microsoft usb keyboard and it did work right away. that isn't really what i'm looking for though.

Almost like the OEM did it on purpose. Perhaps in a naive effort to force VSs own peripherals on folks at a later date?? Nah!

Same here. I have also had success with RF wireless keyboards that have a USB transceiver.
Thanks for the clarifications!
I wonder if there are any USB game controllers that poll using ASCII mapping like keyboards do?
I can't seem to find a definite answer to this: Has anyone had an Apple bluetooth keyboard work with their g tablet? There's a laptop like case for the ipad that has a bluetooth keyboard that I would like to modify for the g tablet, but I'm not sure if the bluetooth keyboard that comes with it would work.
Thanks
I tried my friends ipad keyboard case but couldn't get it to connect to the g tab. Wish I knew how

Same here. I have an iPad (company issued) with the keyboard but I can't make it pair with the gTab. It sees the keyboard and asks for a code and I've tried 0000 and the classic 1234 and neither seems to allow a connection.
A while back when I was looking for something similar and found this.

At the time the seller claimed it would work on any bluetooth enabled device including Android devices even though he doesn't list it in his description.

I read that you can pick any code you want, then type it on the keyboard and hit "enter".

I tried that just to check but no dice. In order for me to type it on the keyboard it needs to be paired with the device. It doesn't pair so that didn't work. It was worth a shot though.
I tried using a seperate device and that didnt work either. Maybe some hack????
I tried typing on keyboard too and that didnt work... thought about it but no go.

Hi all,
Sorry your having problems, what you need to do is get blueinput
its on the apps store, it works kind of.
Its been a few weeks since i set it up and used it,
From what I remember you have to install the apk into the system apk section on your tablet then just load the app and select the blueinput keyboard then it works.
it is limited and I lost connection a lot but as far as I could see it was the only way to get it to work.
Yes i used this with the mac keyboard, there is a topic on it somewhere in the g tab forums, and I believe it was a tutorial how to get it fully working.
If you guys cant find it I will do some digging or reinstall it and tell you all how to do it.
Yeah blueinput is what others are using, with that said most bluetooth things require a different program to get connected which sucks. They should have at least gotten bluetooth mouse and keyboard working in the Android OS by now...
actualy i found the post where all of the info is at.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=869747&page=4
also gunsjoe there seems to be a way to do this without blueinput.

I have not tryed prscott1's method my self but i think otheres have said it works.
I got one of the hp touchpad bluetooth keyboards on sale with the touchpad. It pairs easily with the touchpad, but if I try to pair it with my android phone, I get prompted for a passcode.
Does anyone know the bluetooth passcode for the keyboard?
***EDIT
Figured it out: apparently android by default doesn't have the capability yet to sync properly with bt keyboards by itself yet (Cyanogenmod might work.) To make it work, I got an app 'Bluetooth Keyboard Easyconnect' from the market. Just turn on bluetooth, open the app, and turn on the hp touchpad keyboard (in that order) and wait - it will sync automatically. Don't try to force the pairing in the bluetooth settings page for your phone.
If you do have a rom that allows manual pairing from the bluetooth settings by default, to sync you need to enter a passcode on your phone when prompted (anything you want - i used 0000), and then type the same code on the bt keyboard and press enter.
market link: https://market.android.com/details?id=net.mybesttools.btkbservice&feature=search_result
Try 000 (three zeros) or 0000 (four zeros). That is what most devices I have tried use.
HP official bluetooth keyboard
I got this for $28 at best buy, and while it works decent with the touchpad, I am wondering: Can it work with other devices?
I got it to pair with windows 7, but when I type, nothing happens. Has anybody else had any success? Something I'm not doing perhaps?
Every comment I've seen about this says the keyboard works only with the touchpad. There is some concern that the keyboard may not even work on the touchpad if/when Android is ported to it.

So can your confirm that this keyboard can indeed work with android phones/devices? I just received my purchase of this keyboard, and it looks and feels great. But I don't want a bluetooth keyboard that will only work with WebOS.
Thanks
Works fine with android and webos. Haven't tried it with anything else but it seems to be a generic bt keyboard so I'm sure it's within its capabilities to work on windows or mac.
I have a stock Evo 3D. And it works that.
I can confirm it pairs with the iPad 2, so (presumably) it should also pair with other iOS devices. The iPad asks that you punch in a code to confirm the sync, but I wonder if it's static?
Will this work with Win7?
I currently use the apple BT keyboard for Win7 but used "KeyTweak" to remap the key strokes in the registry for buttons such as delete and the media keys. Everything else works just dandy (cept the damn Ctrl key is in the wrong place...stupid Apple)
Would it be safe to assume that the Touchpad keyboard would work the same and require remapping of a few keys here and there? I see one person above said that they couldn't get it to work with Win7, but then again many people say that it doesn't work with Android and it definitely does...
Thank you all!
I have been able to pair up with my touchpad, 2 android phones, and a ps3 so I am assuming it will work on any bluetooth enabled device
I can't freaking get mine to pair. I can clearly see it, but after putting in the password (I've tried 000, 0000, 1234, 0123, 01234, and ABC) it just keeps asking if I want to pair it again. I'm assuming I don't have the correct PW. Anyone else have one that might work? I'm running the latest CM7 nightly and using the CM7 BT options.
Also, I downloaded that app mentioned earlier and it like.. doesn't work at all.

im having the exact same problem, im running MIUI on my s2 and just cant get it working, with or without the app within the app the keyboard just doesn't show up >_< i just want to pair it up so that i can get confirmation that it will still work when i flash android (when its available) to my touchpad :/ please help!
My Hp Keyboard works with Windows 7 and my dell streak 7 running honeystreak, no app needed. They both ask me to enter in a number upon pairing and they both work great.
I used this app to pair a new HP Touchpad keyboard I bought through Craigslist yesterday for $40. Worked within a few minutes of poking around. My Samsung Infuse is rooted, thanks to a modded Rogers ROM someone shared here. Pairing took a bit of figuring out, mostly because I have Droidwall running and hadn't granted permissions for the app. Then I installed Null Keyboard to get rid of the thumb keyboard while typing. Works AWESOMELY well in QuickOffice and other text editors.
My only complaint is a weirdness in the native email application which makes the keyboard unusable there. I can type random-length text, anywhere from a few words to a short paragraph, then it freezes for a few seconds, then I get a 'text copied to clipboard' message and the new message or reply I was starting vanishes. Not to the Drafts folder or Trash, just gone like it was never there. Doesn't happen with any other input method, as the email application seems generally stable and good. Of course I can write messages in a text editor then copy/paste them into email, but that's a bit of a pain. Anyone heard of this glitch?
Otherwise the HP keyboard is amazingly compact and comfortable to use. There are a few keys which don't seem to work at all and some weird key functions I'll have to learn, like the sideways arrow keys navigate vertically and the vertical arrows do nothing... and how Control A doesn't select all text etc, and how symbol and numeral entry uses odd key combinations, but for basic text entry it's solid. With a good external keyboard for this phone my jump from Windows Mobile is complete, I'm happy to have made the leap.
So I finally got my keyboard. It paired with Win 7 no problems. My issue now is that the "power" button did not remap to the "del" button and program "KeyTweak" doesn't even recognize the "power" button key stroke for me to remap it.
Any ideas? Thank you!
when using the keyboard with android, the keyboard looses connection when it drops into hibernate. It doesn't re-establish connection and must be re-paired from android....am I doing something wrong?
so is it only me but the delete button only deletes a letter (in a word document) at a time and does not continuously delete even if it's held down?
Holding down any key causes it to repeat for me, including the delete key. This is with a Samsung Infuse.
So what am I doing wrong? When I got to connect with any of my Android devices, I get to the password screen and it just won't connect after that. I've tried 000, 0000, 1234 etc, with no avail. Is there a special code?
When I first connected the HP Touchpad keyboard I had to enter a 6 digit code, if memory serves. It wasn't generic - rather a proper code, something you couldn't guess at particular to the pairing request. I entered it (there was a time limit too, a countdown... maybe, but I've been doing a lot of setting up of stuff on this thing and forgetting more than I remember), and since then have not been asked for it. Connecting is a bit twitchy the odd time but mostly I just toggle power on the keyboard off and on again if it's taking more than half a minute to connect. I typically see a pop-up 2 to 4 times on the phone saying the HP keyboard is connecting before it actually does.
Hi, My Note 10.1 is on Android 4.1.2 on Redemption Rom. Runs awesome. I use use a bluetooth keyboard with it every day, and today is the first time i connected a bluetooth mouse and im having an unusual problem:
With the bluetooth keyboard connected, when i connect my Apple Magic Mouse, when the mouse is connected if i am typing the keyboard starts putting in extra letters. Example:
"Thiis is aaaaan exampllle of typinnnggg on Annnnnnnndroid."
When this is happening, as soon as i turn off the Apple Magic Mouse, the issue solves itself. Then if i reconnect the mouse the issue starts again. Anyone have this problem? Could it be because of some incompatiblility of the Note 10.1 and Apple Magic Mouse? Or some Android bug?
I was having an issue each time i tried typing with the keyboard where the built in software keyboard would pop up regardless if the bluetooth keyboard was connected or not. I solved this by installing "Null Keyboard" which each time the keyboard connects i have to select the default input method, but this is a small inconvience compared to having the entire keyboard pop up.

anyone the self problem and know who i can change this....
Same problem on the international galaxy note 2 N7100
Confirmed
I've tried 2 different keyboards, the Logitech tablet and the Belkin folio, with an HP mouse, and when the mouse is on the keyboard gets flaky.
This is a big issue for everyone that wants to remote desktop.
Also, I'd say that the mouse seems rather laggy itself.
Where do we submit bug reports?

You can flash a different ROM (something that's not TW based) Also try switching different kernels. People have gotten it to work this way
So I just bought a Moga Pro Power controller, and I tried to connect to it, using the official Moga Pivot app.
First I thougt that the app is buggy, cause it stopped while connecting. And when the controller was paired, I couldn't even open my Moga-using games. But considering that the app works perfectly on every other N5, except mine, I started to think that franco kernel's bluetooth settings are the reason for that.
So I flashed stock kernel, but the problem still occurs...
I can receive and send files, just that damn app stops working everytime (i also tried reinstalling it).
Please help, I dont want to send that controller back, cause its my phone's fault :/

The problem occurs when the app uses bluetooth. It freezes/gives me error messages.
I guess I have to flash stock firmware to get rid of this problem, cause I already tried everything that came to my mind
