keyboard - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all,
Need quick reply on this one.
Can we use one mobile phone to act as a keyboard for another mobile phone? Can connect wirelessly through anything Bluetooth, Wi-Fi etc??
I have a spare Nexus 5 phone and want to use it as an external keyboard(not using any hardware such as wireless keyboard as my friends did) for my Nexus 6P.
Please feel free to comment and suggest.
Thank you

Bluetooth Keyboards

Hi all,
Does anyone have access to the test .apk that Blueinput released that might let me use/test this with my samsung Galaxy S?>
It doesnt seem that their live .apk on their site will work with every device.
Or maybe there is a better option somewhere that I am not aware of.
Anyone have any luck using other methods to connect a bluetooth keyboard to their Android handsets?
I am rather disapointed that I have been unable to pair my Nokia SU-8W with my Sammy
I am doing the bulk of my mobile typing with my N95 8Gb (paired with su-8w) now that I have sold my HD2.
This is a nuisance as:
a/. the notes application really sucks and doesnt give me much in the way of layout options
b/. the screen is 320 x 240 and just not as nice to read....
Can anyone advise me?
Thanks

[Q] Tethering with omnia i900 by wifi?

Hi, my wife owns a new Ipad wifi device. Until now she used it at home with our wifi connection. Now because of her job, she needs the possibility of being connected everywhere. I have a Samsung omnia i900 on the drawer and a sim with internet connection, so I ask you if there is any way to make tethering with it by wifi (as Ipad is suposed not to give the option of connecting by usb).
Else I´ll have to buy a cheap android device, but if I don´t have to spend money... better for me
Thank you!
hey
hey!! theres a software called Wifi Router WM, you can install it and use it anyway you want, all options for tethering is available there.. just google it and enjoy... and its supposed to be free now..
edit: hey, i have the software , am gonna attach t for you... enjoy..
Is it solved or not?

USB-GameController on the Nexus 5

Hey Guys,
I just wanted to know if it is possible to play games on the Nexus 5 using an USB-Controller using an adapter and so on.
So a really simple setup. Does USB-OTG work on the Nexus 5 and is there any Controller you would recommend?
Also, does a simple USB-OTG Cable work or is there any external power needed?
Thanks in advance and sorry if there is already an thread like this.
Kind Regards

You should be able to print from the Nexus 5 without an app. The Nexus 5 comes with wireless printing in the settings menu. Just follow the directions in the menu. Your phone will need to link up with your wireless printer. Make sure your phone is on wifi also. If you don't have a wireless printer, you will definitely need some sort of USB cable. There are plenty of apps in the play store to help. Otherwise, try looking on YouTube or Google. Good luck

I do it wireless with an Epson printer and N5 Epson free app.

I used to use that app with my Galaxy S3. It worked great. I don't do too much printing anymore.

[Completed] [Q] Link Nexus 6 and 7

Hello-
I have a bit of a situation that I am looking for help on.
I have a Nexus 7 and Nexus 6. I have the Nexus 7 mounted in my car and, I keep my Nexus 6 in my pocket.
I currently have the Nexus 6 synced via bluetooth to my car for phone calls, Pandora, etc. and have the wifi-hotspot turned on to allow for Maps to work on my Nexus 7.
What I would like to do is have everything go through the Nexus 7 (Phone calls, Pandora, everything).
Where my limitation seems to lie is the ability to send and receive calls through the Nexus 7. The reason is that I would like to be able to play video/music from the tablet and have it heard through the car speakers but I don't want to lose the ability to make and receive calls through said speakers. Is there a way to do this? Unfortunately, my car's bluetooth does not have the ability to simultaneously connect to two devices.
I do not want to use Google Voice, so that is out.
One thought (that I haven't been able to get to work yet) is that I can connect the Nexus 7 to the 6 via bluetooth and use the phone as an audio passthrough to the car.
I am lost for options. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
