*** REQUIRES ROOT PERMISSIONS ***
*** NOT COMPATIBLE WITH ANDROID 4.2 ***
BlueCtrl is an open source Bluetooth input device emulator that can control remote devices. This means that you can use the touchscreen and keyboard of your Android device to control other devices which support Bluetooth.
Because this app is using the Bluetooth input standard, it supports various operating systems without any special server software. It has been successfully tested with the following systems:
Android
iOS
Linux (Fedora, Ubuntu...)
Mac OS X
PlayStation 3
Windows
Please note that if you want to use this app with Microsoft Windows, you probably need to disable a conflicting Android service. For more information look at:
https://github.com/RonsDev/BlueCtrl/wiki/Bluetooth-input-service-conflict
This app requires root permissions because it needs direct access to the Bluetooth adapter. Another restriction is that it is only compatible with a specific Bluetooth stack that is called BlueZ, which is used on many but not all devices with a Android version smaller 4.2.
What's new
New system specific touchpad gestures
The gestures are now optimized for the chosen remote device system. Linux and Windows systems also got a new setting for the gesture mode. So, for example, if you are using Windows 8 you can configure the appropriate gesture mode to enable the special Windows 8 edge gestures.
New interactive touchpad tutorial
The interactive tutorial will explain all gestures for the current system and can be activated via the menu.
New menu item for composing text
This is especially helpful if you want to write a longer text because you can keep your eyes on the device and see what you write and it also allows you to correct the text before it is send.
Voice input can be corrected before sending
Voice input will be displayed in a edit box before it is send so that you are able to correct misinterpreted words.
New "Stay awake" setting
This setting prevents that the device is going into standby and disconnects the connection. To save some energy the screen will however be dimmed after 30 seconds of inactivity.
New "Scroll sensitivity" setting
You can long press the keyboard button to change the input method

Hey,
This app sounds great, running a rooted SGS2 running XXLPB ICS (4.0.3). Have installed and all appears fine, trying to manipulate my PS3 with it nothing happens... Does it only work for custom OSs on PS3? or does it work with the standard PS3 'XMB'?
Cheers
P.s. I realise that I have used a very large amount of acronyms... many apologies, but I estimate to have saved myself a small age in not writing them all out!
Works well ! Thanks for this apk.
I try it with another android device and it runs.

Could you send me the log message of the error?
What IDE do you use to build this app? I'm new to Android and so far I've just used Eclipse. In your source code I didn't see gen folder with R class.
I also met problem when connecting two devices (two Android phones). after paring, I pressed "connect" button then I received a message "Connection refused. The remote device is busy or the devices aren't correctly paired".
Is there a phase to enter the key used to pair two devices? If yes, I didn't see that phase.

The app is build with the Ant build tool on the command line (see the README) but I use Eclipse to develop the Java code. The gen folder will be automatically generated if you build the project.

Before you press the “connect” button you should wait a little until the other device shows that the devices are paired (sometimes the “connect” button is enabled too early because Android reports that the devices are paired even if the pairing process hasn't finished yet). Before that you should normally see a pairing request dialog or notification where you enter or confirm the key.
Thaks alot
Out of all the applications o the market yours is the only one that works on all systems. If you want to post a donation version on the android market I'll gladly donate to help you improve your work.
Hey thanks for the app. Its amazing. I was the first post but I got one thing that I was wondering if you could look into.. I have two devices. A htc g2. And a Samsung galaxy player 5.0. Both rooted but g2 on cyanogenmod. And galaxy player on stock. This app works on my g2 but the galaxy player gets this error. The application encountered a problem and cannot continue (error -53). Please help!

Amazing App! Though I connected my phone to another Android phone and wondering what gesture is the Home button.
2 Fingers is the Back button

Also I tried connecting it to my iOS device and I get the "Connection Refused" message. On my iOS device it just keeps on trying to connect? Has anyone else got this problem?

2 finger swipe left worked for the Android Home
And I got connected to my iOS device but no pointer (not your fault, **** iOS fault). Thanks man, really helped me with my Mac, great app!
Btstack
hi guys! great app! I wish I could use it! lol Actually... just tried it on my macbook pro... works great!
Okay so you say it can connect to iOS but no pointer? But the BTstack tweak in cydia is supposed to solve that issue.
However I can't connect to my ipad 2. here's what I sent to the developer of BTstack mouse:
"Hi, I've tried to find a solution for a while now, but to no avail. I go to connect the mouse and it just sits on the "mouse selector" page.
I have an ipad 2 (wifi only) (not the ipad2,4 either) jailbroken ios 5.1.1
Everytime I try to pair. it wont. Then the app blacks out and freezes my ipad. I'm then forced to do a hard reboot."
now... your app warns me that another Bluetooth input service is active on my device T-MOBILE HTC G2 cyanogen mod 7.
I click the link to read more info, but it doesn't really help me out. I would love an answer. maybe a how-to only have one bluetooth input service running on the G2 at a time? I really want to use my phone as a mouse, I already have an apple wireless keyboard that I use with my ipad a lot and would love the addition of a mouse. (I'm currently NOT trying to pair both at the same time.. fyi)
So if someone could help me out, this could be a big step in bridging the gap between ios and android and getting them to actually play nice together.
Thank you for your time!
Hi I had a g2 and I kinda have a ipad 2 and it worked flawlessly. What works is don't try to connect them from outside the app.
And if you need more in-depth help just ask

UPDATED 8/20/14
Some minor changes were made to the process to get the Bluetooth API available. I confrmed this after re-flashing my device.
I have sucessfully unblocked access to the bluetooth stack on the Tizen Wearable SDK. This feature was removed from the wearable SDK and I have discovered how to re-enable this. This will allow you to write apps that can communicate with any available bluetooth device using the Tizen Wearable SDK.
1. Download this file from tizens website - download.tizen.org/releases/2.2.1/latest/repos/tizen-main/armv7l/packages/armv7l/wrt-plugins-tizen-0.4.80-1.1.armv7l.rpm
2. From a command prompt cd into your folder where sdb.exe is kept. (ie. tizen/tools/ )
3. Enter command ./sdb root on to put gear 2 into root mode.
4. Next push downloaded file above onto your gear. (ie. ./sdb push ~/Downloads/wrt-plugins-tizen-0.4.80-1.1.armv7l.rpm /tmp/ )
(There is a space between the tizen file and the /tmp/ which places the file into the tmp folder on the gear 2)
5. Shell into your gear 2. (ie. ./sdb shell )
6. At the command prompt, make the file system writable. (ie. mount -o remount,rw / )
7. Change to the tmp directory and install the rpm file. (ie. cd tmp ) (ie. rpm -i --force --nodeps --replacefiles wrt-plugins-tizen-0.4.80-1.1.armv7l.rpm
8. If successful you should have NO OUTPUT and only a new command prompt.
9. Type reboot on the command prompt on the gear 2 and it restarts.
10. Start the Wear IDE and try to use the Bluetooth API Calls and it should work.
Below is a sample Wear App
var adapter = tizen.bluetooth.getDefaultAdapter();
console.log(adapter.address);
Before this would result in a null listing on the console, but now you should have the bluetooth address in the console. I have verified discovery works and other Bluetooth functions.
Happy Building!!

You must do this in Ubuntu 12.04 as the building tools GBS and Gerritt work only with Linux.
Step 1 - Download the Developer Tools for Tizen including Gerritt Build System (GBS) and Gerritt. Register for Gerritt access on Tizens webpage and configure your computer to build rpm packages.
Step 2 - Download the wrt-plugins-tizen.git package from gerritt under framework and build it successfully on your computer.
Step 3 - Make sure your gear 2 is rooted and using sdb, push the recently compiled wrt-plugins-tizen.rpm onto a folder on the gear 2.
Step 4 - Using sdb, login to the shell on the gear 2. (ex: ./sdb shell)
Step 5 - CD to the folder with the new rpm wrt-plugins-tizen.rpm file is located.
Step 6 - Change the filesystem on the gear to read/write from read only. Ex: Sh$ mount -o remount,rw /
Step 7 - Install the wrt-plugins-tizen.rpm over the already installed version. Ex: Sh$ rpm -ivh wrt-plugins-tizen.rpm -nodeps --force
Step 8 - Restart your Gear 2 and you should be able to call the methods and functions for Bluetooth in the Tizen
(Ex: var adapter = tizen.bluetooth.getDefaultAdapter();
console.log(adapter.address);
Before this would result in a null listing on the console, but now you should have the bluetooth address in the console. I have verified discovery works and other Bluetooth functions.
Happy Building!!

Hi there,
Does that mean that BT communication with an iPhone (apart from the BT hands free profile) may indeed be possible?

Skin, my man, could this result in a ROM with direct control over BT profiles? In that case, direct connection between Gear and iPhone could be possible.
BT hands free profile is already supported by the iPhone. Enabling other profiles on the watch could maybe lead to enabling notifications.

iOS 7 is supposed to automatically expose notifications to BT. No extra software on the iPhone side is required, as long as the correct profiles are supported by the watch.
One example I personally have used is the i'mwatch.

Was you using Bluetooth stack as well switching over from ios to stack mode with your gear pre set up for another device . I can say that my iPhone 4 jailbroken on ios 7 works as hands free without having to reset . That's my gear 1 with tizen 3.0 . I know of the iPhone 4 doesn't have nfc to connect with the gear 1 via tag mode but without it it still connects with simple pairing
As for my gear 1 no matter what I try I can't even get it full or haLA function on my evo3d (I know jb is recommended minimum) on 2.3.4, 2.3.6, 4.0.2 4.0.4, 4.1 or 4.4.2 sense stock roms or cyanogen. Romeos, or miui
And my s4 running any cyanide kitkat either
I've tried various gear stubs. Samsung app stores and gear managers, goproviders etc.
My s3. Not a problem
. I even have trouble with some variations of aosp. Aokp. Pac. Slim. Cyanogen. Miui and even some tw roms on my s5

Gav I am not sure I am following u here dude.
Let me tell u my experience.
I only have a borrowed HTC one and have as we'll tried some iPhones (never used BTstack cydia tweak) with the Gear 1.
I can connect the HTC through Gear Manager (can provide the links where I found it and the stub if u like me to) without a problem.
The HTC is stock 4.4.2 not rooted.
If the watch is reset to factory I definitely need the HTC otherwise it is useless.
However, after it connect the Gear and the HTC and have access to the watch settings (not anymore stuck in the how to pair video screen) I can also connect an iPhone 4 (no BT 4.0) as well as an iPhone 5 and my iPhone 5S. As long as I am have not installed the airbluesharing tweak which somehow messes the BT stack of the iPhone (I think).
However the iPhone thinks that the (Tizen stock or modded running) Gear is simply a hands free device, simple as that. Althoufgh they are connected, on the gear side it seems that there is no connection.
What actually works I have listed here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2789095
My opinion (I am not a dev by any means) is that basic hands free functionality is achieved outside the Gear Manager whereas all other BT profiles are somehow tied to that God damned manager.
Then again the current thread is talking about unlocking the full BT stack of the Tizen running Gear, if I understood OK.
If that is the case, all possibilities are open because as I have already told u I have seen the i'mwatch communicate with the Gear with absolutely no app on the iPhone side.
Hope that helps!

Well tomorrow I'm removing my kali Linux and I'm gonna install Ubuntu and look into that be profile on the gear side.
I meant the Cydia tweak btstack has options to use it as stack. None or ios. And with air blue and stack. On stack I can connect hands free mode. Without the set up video. Showing.
With the other devices I was just stating how even with Samsung devices it's difficult to communicate.
I'm gonna do more research in to ios Bluetooth. And the gears profiling of it tomorrow. IL report back here with findings

No mate sorry not yet it took most of my day to download the tizen gear source code. And the u Ubuntu sdk and the Ubuntu iso. and create new mirrors. . As well figuring out to flash and use custom ring tones. I got the software downloaded for ubuntu but to install it would have disabled my network adapter temporarily but I didn't want to do that cos of the painstaking low speed of the tien source code. By the time it finished with everything else I was doing I didn't have enough time to install it and play around. But tomorrow afternoon IL get on with it. I've got all the software needed.

Correct, that's called the Apple Notification Center service and is obviously not supported by the Gear.
The standard Bluetooth profile is called the Alert Notification Profile and is not supported by either the Gear or the iPhone.

I am not sure if this is all that is required.
For example pairing a device with the Gear will make it popup the "factory reset needed" dialog. The source of that dialog seems to be com.samsung.bt-syspopup. Uninstalling it results in no "factory reset needed" prompt, but also no Bluetooth prompts at all..... Maybe one could install the stock org.tizen.bt-syspopup one.
Hello,
I am a developer trying to write some simple software for the ZGPAX S6. As far as I can tell I cannot get my IDE (eclipse with the ADT tools loaded) to recognize the watch. I am also not seeing Windows recognize it as a USB device.
I am relatively new to the droid platform, so I would love it if someone could point me to a straightforward way to hook the watch up to the android debug bridge, or a way to side load an app to the watch without, potentially, killing the watch. Anybody know how?
Thanks,
Judd
Hey everyone!
This is my first time ever posting on XDA. I have been running custom ROMs for a while now and I love the clean, for the most part feature rich ROMs that strip all the bloatware out that these manufacturers force on their users.
There has been one thing that has been bugging the crap out of me and that's as the title states getting a Gear 2 Neo watch to work with "Gear Manager" now simply named Samsung Gear.
A little background:
I first attempted this on CM 12 (Lollipop Android), and there was endless thread of people attempting the same thing with different ROMs getting mixed results with a variety of either different version of the gear manager App and all different version of associated plugins. (All attempts I tried all failed, just couldn't get the gear software on my phone to find the watch, either when the phone was BT paired to the watch or not.)
So after giving up from complete frustrations. I decided my phone needed a cleanup (was getting really buggy from multiple app installs and who knows what else) I generally have root mode disabled whenever humanly possible. Lucky CM releases great night version of their ROM that can be easily installed an upgraded using CWM or in my case TWRP.
So Now I'm on the latest build of CM13 (Marshmallow Android) and as most of you know Samsung released the gear app to work on other versions of Android (But no their own hardware with custom ROM installed).
So The App installed and all I get is the "You've modified you OS that is incompat... blah blah blah, gear app won't run". Quickly searching this the latest post basically stated that all they did was change their build.prop file to say htc instead of samsung. I made these changes, re-installed gear app. Now it loads (At least some progress) but still no matter what I do the dang app refuses to find the watch.
Can someone please provide a clear step by step what I need to do to get my Gear 2 Neo, to work on my S5 running CM 13? I really don't want to back to TouchWiz :S
Just bought a galaxy watch 4 off of eBay, bit of a bargain (never used/AUD117).
I have a pixel phone and obvs wear os app on phone not working with watch, wondering if I can root watch and remove all Samsung crap?
Or not possible?
Might be possible. https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rooting-galaxy-watch4.4452343/ The person who wrote this thread was able to do most of the steps, but there was an error. If that could be fixed, then yeah, you can root it

No you can't. You must have Samsung Galaxy wearable app and the watch4 manager app thing for the watch to work at all with any phone Samsung or not.
What you can do though is debloat the watch using adb app control (great little program) and the dev is super active on telegram for support with it.
As for the samsung apps on your phone, I use NextDNS and I have their settings to block pretty much all trackers. That way the blocking is taking place through DNS and not directly on your device so it doesn't affect your battery.
I saw only experimental attempt... with "success"...
Succeed connecting gw4 to wearos app, so maybe connecting to other phone will be without watch reset after pixel watch and releasing wearos 3 to other than samsung companies
Bluetooth debug also work
no notifications on watch
