help with Stowaway bluetooth keyboard and gsmart i300 wm6 - General Accessories

hmm this is strange, using the software/driver i can not see the keyboard, if i use the OS BT i can connect and i have basic keyboard functions i do not get the special keys to function which is critical, like ok/X and so on...
I do not know what BT stack gigabyte gsmart i300 (running wm6) has? it supports bt 2.0 with stereo... but the stack is??
also at the moment i could use some third party application that emulates maybe a keyboard to a fuller extent, or mapping program of keyboard or keys, were maybe i could map those keyboard function combo's to the applications virtual keyboard or phone buttons
Any help would be greatly appreciated

In the Stowaway driver-applet, there's an option to disable the native OS HID drivers, so the Stowaway driver can take over control.
Got mine working perfectly under WM6

bluetooth mouse help

hi i whant to now is there any fix to bluetooth mouse work with jasjar cause the mouse work but the arrow don't appear but i can clik on start ect ...
what do i do ?
the mouse is the omiz OMM810
Stowaway Travel Mouse
I have the same situation with bluetooth pilot kensington
I think that we need driver of mouse for universal
Someone already use both a mouse and a keyboard Stowaway Travel Mouse
Please search
:wink:
I have both stowaway mouse and keyboard working together. Their driver will display the cursor arrow when a mouse is connected. There is a WM5 version of driver on ThinkOutside's website.
If you are using a bluetooth mouse from other manufacturers, I remember there is a little Pocket PC utility somewhere on the Internet that will display the cursor arrow. The very first utility of this kind was developed for USB mouse to be used with USB Host-enabled PDAs. I presume that the same utility would also work with bluetooth mouse. Basically, the utility draws a cursor arrow on the screen. That's all it does.
Does anybody knows if it is possible to get "MS IntelliMouse Explorer for Bluetooth" to with Universal?
At home off course... the mouse is almost as large as the PDA
Is there any driver available?
Does the arow appears?

found this post while I was looking 4 the same thing!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=137702.
smells good, i'll give it a try
Anyone having fun yet?
It seems that on the JasJar any stowaway driver before ver 4.3 fails
The Cracks only seem to work on anything prior to 4.3
SO we are stuck between a Rock and hard place
Cant we hack the dll's again??
Who's up for trying :roll:
Regards
it worked perfectly with buzz 1.65... but with the new 2.00 it doesnt work anymore ;-(
from buzz's forum:
It seems the newer OS addresses the dll differently and therefore it fails to load. There is a new version of the Think Outside Stowaway driver 4.4 this loads fine, but does unfortunately only work with the stowaway hardware and not with the generic HID devices you and I have....
I hope someone can fix it up. I suppose the stowaway dll tries to identify the hardware and if someone is able to modify the dll not to verify the id of the hardware it should work fine once again.
someone able 2 help?
has anyone got this working yet?
with aku3.2 : the phone finds the mouse without the stowaway driver.. but needs an passkey wich isn't 0000 or 1234.. (altough I unchecked "secure connection") anybody an idea?
I don't think that's anything to do witn AKU3.2, it's just simply trying to pair with a bluetooth device.
I have paired my Microsoft BT mouse with my JasJar, but like most people, can not get the Stowaway drivers working.
I used to love using a USB mouse on my old Toshiba e800, I really wish I could with this too. I already have 3 bluetooth mice, I am not going to buy one purely for use with a PDA.

how to get Stowaway BT driver work with WM6

I'm using HTC Trinity WM6 and wish to use my old Stowaway universal Bluetooth keyboard working? i cannot find driver for WM6. anyone have it?
please help!! i love my BT keyboard and wish to get it work again.
thanks
Attached is the driver I use for my Kaiser WM6/6.1, dunno if it'll work on your Trinity or not.
If not here is the drivers page: http://corporate.igo.com/support/Drivers.asp. Just choose your manufacturer and model.
Note that WM6 comes with basic keyboard drivers -- you only need to install a driver if you want to use special functionality such as customized keys. I use the built-in drivers on my Kaiser with a BT keyboard (not the Stowaway, but supposedly compatible).
htc tytn II and sierra bt keyboard
everybody,
trying to connect / use my new sierra bt keyboard with my htc tytn II and nothing works,.... if i go through the htc the keyboard is detected, asks for a security code, does not recognise the one i put in, (although the instructions say pick one of your choice), and does not connect.
if i go through the keyboard CAB installed on the htc, still cannot connect,.... i am not exactly a 'newbie' but if someone could give a step by step direction on how to get this to work, i would be very grateful,....
thanks,
ek
sorry everyone, i used elyspar's CAB file on my htc tytn II,.... thanks for your help,....ek
found a vid on youtube very helpful,.... it's actually quite simple to connect, so maybe i need to retract, i am a newbie,....
here's the link, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8HAge9yJu4
no functionality though, just basic input, good for emails / word, but limited,....
guess i have to install the driver on my kaiser somehow,....
Hi everybody, can you tell me which driver i have to install for my Niki? It's not on the list...
Thank you very much.

I could use an Apple Alu BT KB with HTC TyTN (not II). Paired. Without any special driver. Remember to press Enter on the KB after the code. Now I have a new Touch HD and I get it paired but nothing happens clicking on the keyboard...
I will start installing drivers which I find here suggested and will report.
iGo stowaway BT keyboard and WM6
Hello all,
I originally posted this message in a Blackstone forum, but as this problem probably relates to WM6 in general I thought I would post here
I have an igo bluetooth keyboard and I am using Blackstone phone (running the usual WM6.1 proffessional. I installed the igo software and everything worked fine except that phone crashed a lot. Not so useful. I then uninstalled the software and paired the keyboard using the onboard Bluetooth keyboard drivers. All worked well for one run through and I was able to type away. However I have not got the thing to work again since, even after re-pairing the devices. Does anyone haev any thoughts about what I might be doing wrong?
Thanks.

Hello Guys, partly not to the topic hear....
I have an igo stowaway keyboard and a travel mouse and i have been using them with my fusi n560 (wm 6.0). Now I bought a Nokia 5800 mobile phone with symbian s60v3 touch. The keyboard came with multiple driver including both wm and symbian versions, but the mause came only with wm driver. Now the question is: do you happen to know how could I use my mouse with my symbian device? Sorry for asking symbian related question here....
Special Characters and the Sierra Stowaway
I have previously used the Sierra Bluetooth Keyboard and it worked flawlessly on my T-Mobile Wing running WM5... I recently tried to port the same driver suggested by ek... (PPC5) to the T-Mobile HTC Touch Pro2, WM6.1.
It works on all keys, including the function keys, but cannot produce the specialty characters on the 5th, number-row, i.e., [email protected]#$%^&*()
Everything else seems to work fine... anybody come across a fix for this?
Thanks!
JSS
I've been interested in acquiring an Apple Wireless Keyboard for my PDA too.
But from skimming other people's post, looking at what was successful on the internet (e.g. the guy on youtube with the Mio who paired with the Apple BT Keyboard), it seems that all the success stories come from people running WM5/6
Anything 6.1 and above seems to not work in general, although you have some success stories like from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=486595
Has anyone successfully paired with 6.1-6.5?

I have similar problems with my Samsung Omnia, WM6.1 and the German Stowaway Keyboard (QWERTZ) with the driver 4.51.
Just the keys !$& are not working.
Could there be a workaround like using ASCI numbers?
I tried ALT+33 to get a "!" but had no success.
Does anybody else has some suggestions?
Thanks,
Sigi

I solved my problem:
I installed the English driver 4.52
(I have an English ROM and use a German Keyboard)
The driver was changed from version Ger4.51 to Eng4.52 on several places and I think they solved some Bugs.
I resetted my Omnia after the installation.
Because the problem still existed, I resetted the Omnia once again, while the Stowaway keyboard was selected in the keyboard menu.
After that reset all the characters worked like the should.
Hope that helps.

Artemis WM6.1 + iGo BT keyboard + logitech v470 = trouble

First of all: For about a year, the keyboard was working fine, using thinkoutside 4.52 official driver. Then I got a nice gift: logitech V470 BT laser mouse. Then the hell begun. How in the world connect it to the PDA?
Someone on this forum claimed that V470 works on HTC Athena out-of-the-box, using included in wm6/wm6.1 bluetooth hid stack. For some reason, after I pair the mouse and check input device in BT services list - nothing happens. I tried:
- uninstalling ThinkOutsde driver - the even keyboard stopped working, even thi I paired it and checked input device,
- bluemouse/ blueinput - it says BT on, mouse off. On their site I read it's probably due to incompatible BT stack. No chances of telling what BT stack is installed on PPC... :/
- using hacked version of stowaway keyboard/mouse driver. I got "keyboard not working / please reinstall stowawayxt.dll" error. I checked - hacked one has 162kB, the one from 4.52 - 59kB and is signed, while hacked one is not. WTF?
- I know, that stowaway disables built-in HID, but even when I'm enabling it again, nothing is happening.
- Deep search on google on v470, bluetooth hid, bluetooth at all on PDAs, bt stacks and such revealed nothing. Please, help!

Hello Vartharian, did you ever have any luck getting the Bluetooth mouse to work? I too am trying to find a solution, but I lack the hacked thinkoutside files to work from.
If you have one I can take a look and see if I can reverse engineer a fix.
Thanks,
Peter

Some kind of BlueTek (or something) drivers for WinMo to enable BT mouse use. Found them in some download somewhere in the tubes, look for "BlueMouse driver" or something. Installs driver and settings panel. Hope this helps. Maybe then you could get some sweet Quake action going.

Use any bluetooth mouse with your hd

Hey guys in my searches i have found this little app. Theres an unlimited free trial available. it let's you connect any bluetooth mouse to your wm device. great app and would love to use a mouse in conjuction with my igo keyboard. I have tried pairing the mouse however it does not complete pairing and the mouse continues to sit in pairing mode. I have tried three seperate mice (logitech, targus and microsoft) If anyone is willing to give it a go and let me know how they go would be great.
Hopefully it will work for you.

I used a Logitech V70 following the instructions on the site and it worked as advertised. I've also paired it with my Logitech diNovo Mini although not at the same time.
edit: Actually I installed the cab, turned on the radio, initiated a device search, then I turned on the V70 and pressed the connect button on the bottom. No password was required, I just clicked Next as soon as the mouse was recognized. I think this is a little bit different than the order specified on the website.
i'm encountering two main problems.
1) the Teksoft software is not recognising the bluetooth is on. I'm using the radio rom that comes with dutty's v1.7.
2) after I pair the mouse (with a blank password) it remains in discovery mode.
Just a bit of extra information i'm using the ig keyboard and have the igo software installed not sure if that could be causing problems. Also having read other forums the mouse i was trying to use was the microsoft 5000 and one of the guys had this working perfectly which leads me to believe its my phone.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Bluetooth stack on HTC HD2
Hi All,
I just got th HTC HD2 and I also run into difficulties connecting a bluetooth mouse. Looks like the problem lies in the Bluetooth stack.
I'm using a iGo/Thinkoutside stowaway bluetooth mouse and keyboard. The software (latest version from 2007) does not recognise that Bluetooth is on.
The keyboard is recognised as a standard HID device and works without any additional software.
I tried the Teksoftco Blueinput software and got the same problem that the software does not recognise that Bluetooth is on. Probably it only works with the MS bluetooth stack and not the one on HTC HD2 (TP2, HD, ...?).
I can connect to a bluetooth mouse but the HD2 can't find any services to use.
Anyway, If anybode has a solution please post but my hopes are verly low... :-(
Maybe a wired mouse via USB host on the car cradle will work...

The software doesn't work on my Touch HD
I tried the V 1.5RC4 but it always displays: "The BlueInput driver is not responding. You need to reinstall this software."
Is it possibly, that I have a altered bluetooth stack with my ROM (Energy)?
Would appreciate any help to get this to work!

I had exactly the same problem in my Touch HD with Energy ROM and found the solution. Our problem is because the bluetooth HID libraries are missing in the Energy ROM. Thus, first, you need to restore them by using TRV_Bth_HID.cab attached. Restart. Then, you need to pair your mouse and to ensure, that the service "input device" has appeared and marked in the bluetooth manager. Restart with the turned on bluetooth and the mouse connected. Only after these steps, you can install V1.5RC4. Note, that V1.5RC4 overwrites the library \Windows\bthhid.dll, which was in TRV_Bth_HID.cab. As a result, after V1.5RC4 installation, your mouse will be seen as "disconnected" in the bluetooth manager - this is normal. But, if you need to install new device, you will have to repeat all steps above.

Think Outside Stowaway BT mouse and Keyboard

Hi all,
I ran into a problem trying to get my Stowaway Bluetooth keyb and mouse working. It looks to me as if the new BT stack is the problem. To rule that out I am trying to replace the current stack ( Broadcom is it? ) with one as in the Touch. I guess that would be the Microsoft one?
Anyone can tell me how or where to find it ,and has some experience. Could that be it?
Tnx in advance... Marco
[BUMP] Think Outside Stowaway BT mouse and Keyboard
I am looking for the solution to this as well. I was bummed when I could not use my Think Outside bluetooth keyboard and mouse on my Sprint TP2 as I used them several times a week. Trying to figure out if it is the bluetooth stack or the driver. New drivers are not being produced. Any comments?
