[Q] Using mouse and keyboard in games, how to? - General Questions and Answers

Hello everyone,
Phone LG G2 on 5.0.2 lollipop
I tried to use mouse and keyboard in games like in some of guides I've found on the internet. I've installed USB/BT JoystickCenter, tried to set up this but I've got communicate that joy2touch service has stopped, keyboard is not showing, outside the app, mouse and keyboard is all right. Tried to use M&Key2Touch app and it doesnt even load, it says that "No touchscreen found! Cannot start touch service". Gamepad works fine in games. Does anyone has this problem? Or maybe other app to use keyboard and mouse (mostly mouse) in games on android? Also, I've tried GameKeyboard+ and it won't let you use mouse normally, only keyboard (and it's much better with gamepad so just no)
Thanks

[Q] What in my software is keeping any gamepad from working?

I bought a logitech F310 gamepad today, after hearing so many good reviews on it with this specific device. I have tried using the gamepad with games and I just end up spinning in circles, or when i try to configure, only the left and right on the DPAD work. When i go into Joy2Touch, it recognizes the bits of every single movement, and tells me everything about what i am doing and how i am doing it. It also recognizes the device and its model. Then when i go into JoystickTests, nothing at all is registered. I ended up just giving up and going to play some PCSX ps1 emulator, and the controller works almost perfectly fine (except for the fact that ab/xy are switched and i can't switch them back)
UPDATE: Through some appwork on JoyCenter, I have gotten almost every control to work, except that I always have both joysticks turned ALL the way up and to the side all of the time when ingame on any app except in an emulator. AB/XY are still swiched in my PS1 emulator, have not tried others and will keep it updated.
UPDATE: Something that I have noticed in JoyCenter is that when I load up the driver, I see that the dots for the joysticks for all the way left and all the way up are ALWAYS on, as well as two unknown dots, no matter how I calibrate or try to fix. This seems to be the only problem by now, but whether or not I have JoyCenter running or what controller (between stock gamestop tab controller and f310 Logitech, as well as a generic ps3 controller) So I have narrowed it down to something in the tablet's bios or base software hat is glitching up my USB/Bluetooth control input. Could I have a lemon?
I am running the latest CM with its stock kernel. I have also tried JB and PA with their stock kernels, in the latest versions as well. I am completely lost and stumped, and if anyone could help me out I would greatly appreciate it.

[Q] External Keyboard and Gamestream

Please forgive me if this question has been answered, but I have searched several different ways with no success. I have been trying to use an external (both wired using an OTG adapter, and a wireless bluetooth) keyboard to play games from my computer using gamestream. The mouse movement will work fine, but the keyboards behave as if I am tapping a key repeatedly. Instead of my character moving forward smoothly, he slowly moves forward as if he is stopping and starting repeatedly. I've also had success using a controller, but the keyboard input just isn't working right. Is there a setting or something else I am missing? Thanks.
Do you have the same problem when using Nvidia Grid games when using the keyboard?
I'm tempted to get a keyboard/Mouse for the PC based games on Nvidia Grid.
Not using Gamestream myself as I don't have a compatible Graphics card.

Bluetooth mouse works, but shows no pointer

cm-12.1-20151201-0115-UNOFFICIAL-p5100 and gapps-5.1.x-20150404-minimal-edition-signed installed with clean install.
Okay so far.
Bluetooth mouse pairing okay.
Mouse wheel and mouse buttons work.
But there is no visible mouse pointer.
Tested with two mice, an old microsoft mouse and a new samsung, both showing the same behavior.
Is there any solution or workaround?
By the way, this is a great forum.
Installing custom roms on my old p5100 is a new topic for me for a few days.
The forum here was a great help, without I would never have come so far.
Thanks to all members especially android-andi!
I forgot to mention that I use the Bluetooth Mouse in conjunction with the Samsung Keyboard Dock.
So I get a nice little platform for editing scripts, texts and with AIDE some light Java developing.
A working mouse would be very helpful.
But even without charged Keyboard Dock driver no mouse pointer appears.
Is nobody except me missing the bluetooth mouse pointer?

Mouspointer fix won't be merged by CM as it's a workaround only to fix it. Need to find a different way of fixing it.

Keyboard and mouse connected at the same time

Hi
So I have managed to connect my mouse and keyboard at the same time to my galaxy s8+ (android 8)
But I'm trying to remap the keys for the keyboard so I can play mobile games with them both
So I used the app octopus to recognise my Lenovo 300 wireless mouse (which is connected via The OTG to usb type-C ) so now I can move the screen and shoot freely
And I connected my laptops keyboard via Wi-Fi with the app called Wi-Fi keyboard , the keyboard is working normally like a usb keyboard , even the arrow keys are working as they are supposed to , and I have no input lag what so ever
So, I'm trying to combine these two into one inside the game ( PUBG mobile)
If anyone has an idea please help
Nice
