I just successfully paired my bluetooth keyboard with the xoom and all is well. It was easy enough and basically self explanitory. I figured i'd try my apple trackpad also since i was on a roll. the xoom found it quickly then asked me to enter "0000" to pair it. Seeing as how the trackpad has no numbers i thought it was hopeless, but i entered the digits with the keyboard, pressed enter and it paired.
After this in the bluetooth menu settings it says "Apple Trackpad" - paired but not connected.
I am not knowledgable enough to know where to go from here but any one have any ideas?
Actually now that i am thinking about it, does honeycomb even recognize "mouse" devices? Will it show a pointer on the screen if a bluetooth mouse is connected?
Thank you to any responders (even if you just have to say " sorry buddy yr screwed, its hopless")

I am fairly certain that you have the same problem that people trying to pair mice are having, which is that google has not left in pointer device functionality in the default honeycomb setup. its not so much a problem of pairing as it is a problem of android not knowing what to do with the device. Hopefully this can be implemented in future builds and/or roms.

I just paired it with my 3.1 Xoom, it works, but none of the gestures seem to work... I can't find any way to make them work, but I don't know anything. It does work, just none of the cool features of the magic trackpad.
I paired my magic mouse, everything works but the gestures, scrolling does work though.

Paired easily. Gestures don't work. Scrolling does. The tap to click doesn't seem to work but actually pushing the pad surface down does.

Do you find that your keyboard disconnects a lot? When I'm using it with my mouse it tends to disconnect and un-pair an awful lot. So,thinking my keyboard was just a bit busted, I exchanged it for a different one. Aaaaand this one seems to do the same thing. Anyone have similar issues? I know tons of you are using the same configuration. I'm on the tiamat rom.
bring up my post
anyone.....
I don't think anybody has that specific combination. But maybe if you rephrased to Bluetooth mice as a general subject, you may get some answers.
at least 4 other users have commented and posted pictures of this specific combo in other threads.
Well maybe go for a direct approach and pm them?
I havnt had any issues... but i dont regularly use both of them at the same time. I mostly been using my XOOM by itself. Are you using a custom rom or kernel? Have you tried doing a factory reset?

yes, my keyboard disconnects constantly, and I have to go into settings to connect it again. I try pressing all the buttons, turning it on and off......doesn't help. My Microsoft bluetooth mouse doesn't disconnnect. I tried turning off the mouse and just using the keyboard, but still have the disconnects....the onscreen keyboard keeps popping up. I'm typing this now on the Moto keyboard.....it's a great size, and I can type really fast on it. When it's connected.
edit: Ok, I think it actually was the mouse (Microsoft Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000)....it's been disconnected for a while, and the keyboard is working fine. So I have to find another mouse. It really was neat being able to use the mouse, but if I wanna type really fast, I gotta turn it off. I missed 3 eBay snipe bids because the keyboard wouldn't connect. LOL
maybe it's a mouse issue in general then? I have a different mouse than you and your symptoms sound exactly like mine. BUMP THAT, could you do some testing for us? Just use your mouse and keyboard together more often.

I was chatting on Facebook for a while using just the keyboard with the mouse turned off, and it was typing in all caps a lot and wouldn't backspace some of the time. I gave up and used the touch keyboard. I'm away on vacation, but when I go back home I have another of the same Moto keyboards. I'LLC have to try that. It was practically free with that 50% off, $50 off sale they had, so I have 2. Oh, nice...it auto corrected i'll to I'LLC. Nothing is working for me today! LOL

I will try to replicate the problem. Anything u r doing in particular? How long should I wait before I say im done?
occasionally it'll go forever with no problems for me. Other time's it'll disconnect and give me issues within the first minute
Sync keyboard
Sync mouse
Do stuff
Try syncing the mouse first too, whatever
I tried both out and nothing... I was on facebook for about 15 - 20 minutes and I didnt have any issues. Im running BRD's 3.1 HC update not the tiamat rom. I can test again later and see if it acts up, very odd tho.

Motorola Xoom WiFi - Tiamat Xoom 1.4.4 overclocked to 1.54 GHz
so stock image with tiamat kernel then
Yes im on stock, with tiamat kernel. Im gonna update to tiamat 1.1 rom soon.
Sorry to resurrect this thread, but this still seems to happen, regardless of the keyboard and device. I have a Nexus 7 with the Logitech keyboard, and the Orochi conflicts with it as well. It's a problem with Android in general.
For what it's worth, the Bluetooth Settings menu shows both the Orochi and the keyboard as keyboard devices, as in you can select a language/layout that the Orochi uses, even though it's just a mouse. Maybe that's why we're seeing the conflict.
I have been wishing for a remote to control my phone while it is tucked away in my console and connected to my stereo. I know there are head units that have this built in but my system is factory and I am not looking to replace it. So in searching I ran across this product and ordered it today. It is mainly for Apple but reports say it works on many android devices, though I didn't find the GS2 meantioned specifically. Once I get it in and test it out I will report back my findings in case anyone else is interested.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00824948U/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i01
Interested!
Ok it finally showed up today. It took a lot longer than I expected to get here but it was well worth the wait. All I can say is wow. This thing is fantastic. Works better than I exprected.
The remote is small and light. Would prefer a more solid feel to it but it is great for what it is. It has a dedicated on and off button. It paired to my phone in about 10 seconds, didn't even pull the instructions out . I put my phone inside my desk drawer to test. It is a solid wooden contruction. Pushing play starts your default music player automatically. I could play, pause, previous track, next track, volume up, volume down and mute. The camera button also works. You can open the camera app and take pictures with the remote. While you aren't listening to music the volume buttons control the ringer volume. And if you press and hold the play button it will launch svoice (if installed). So while my phone is in the car I can open pandora, play music or whatever without touching the phone. It has a keyboard button which doesn't seem to do anything, on this phone at least. It also has a home button which if long pressed opens the task manager. While the phone was in my desk I walked to the kitchen and was still able to use the remote. This is about 15 feet from my desk. After that I walked to the front of the office, which is on the other side of the kitchen at about 25 feet and it still worked.
The only downsides I could find are that it connects as a bluetooth keyboard which causes a slight problem. When it connects it sets the samsung keyboard as default and then the samsung keyboard keeps crashing until you go into settings and make swype or whatever else the default keyboard. After that it works perfectly. This may impact other keyboard apps also. Not sure as I only use swype. To me this is a minor issue as the purpose is to not be using the phone while the remote is connected. Plus there may be a work around like uninstalling the samsung keyboard. The only other issue, also minor, is that the battery cover is extremely hard to get off. Good thing the batteries are supposed to last for months. This, of course, remains to be seen since I just got it.
Even with the minor problems I still give this remote a solid 5 stars as it does exactly what I wanted it to do and exceeded my expectations. Also I am testing this on Team Rejectz FF18 Universe 1.4. I will perform a EL29 test and stock FF18 test at a later point and see if it works the same.
oh s*** didn't know it had a built in keyboard till I re checked the Amazon pics. I see you said the button doesn't work but does does the keyboard work at all?

No it isn't really a keyboard. It only has numbers for entering the pin on Bluetooth connection. Not sure what the keyboard button is for yet.

If you find something else let me know please.
OK I tested out EL29 and FF18 stock and here are my findings.
EL29 - Did not work. The only buttons that would work are the volume buttons. None of the other buttons worked. I was using Calks stock deodexed rom. Did not care to test any other roms.
Stock FF18 - Worked even better. It did not have the keyboard crashing that I experienced on Universe 1.4. It still made the Samsung keyboard default but it worked with no errors or force closing. Which makes it much nicer to use. The camera button only controls zoom because the volume rocker does zoom by defualt. Replace the camera app with a modded one that takes pictures with the volume rocker and problem solved. You don't have the ability to control apps by voice since svoice isn't installed. May be able to work around this but haven't tried anything else. Also the keyboard does not switch back to your default after disconnecting the remote. It stays on the Samsung Keyboard and you have to manually switch it.
Fixes: Ok I pulled the camera app from Universe and put it on the stock Deodexed rom to fix the camera issue. I installed SVoice from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1668824&highlight=svoice and now I can access that from the remote by long pressing play/pause. Now if I can figure out how to get the S3 Samsung Keyboard on the S2 I will be set.
Note: You can't pair multiple devices at the same time. It is one at a time. If you change the pairing to device 2 you have to delete it on device1 and repair it again if you want to use it again on device1.

I have one of those keyboards. It works pretty well and $10 is a good price (I think mine was $28 at Best Buy). I haven't tried using it as a remote however, so I can't comment on that functionality.
Well I finally got it today and it worked as a keyboard for about 5 minutes till I got curious and pressed the ime button now it just does shortcuts no keyboard, but as a remote this thing is perfect especially for 10$, it has the very occasional lag when changing modes it will alive freeze up, but it's only happened once so far and I haven't been able to repeat it. The software included is useless though.

Hi there guys!
This is my first thread, there seems to have been a thread on every problem I've encountered until now..
I have a motorola bluetooth keyboard
and a samsung bluetooth mouse
The keyboard works amazingly well on its own on my note 2. However when I also connect the mouse it starts to lag and type like thissssss. It's so bad it makes the keyboard unusable as you spend more time correcting what you wrote.
If this was a case of normal interference, I'd call it bad luck and leave it there.. HOWEVER - I tested them both on my macbook pro and they work as intended together. Now this puzzles me greatly as I thought they were interfering with each other's frequency, so shouldn't that be independent of the device I'm using?
Since they can work together, I was wondering if anyone could help me out with any suggestions of what's going on so I can come to some kind of solution/fix?
Thanks, looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
Any chance the cpu is underclocked (power saving mode in settings)?
from tapatalk (Galaxy Note 2)
Unfortunately it's not
Look for external keyboard helper in app store. Set delay settings to your liking. You will to have that set as your keyboard. Be aware that samsung keyboard tries to turn on depending on what Rom you ate running. I am somewhat disappointed in the bluetooth performance on my note 2. That is about all I am disappointed about.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using Tapatalk 2
Thank you so much! It worked like a charm! I actually already had the app installed, it was just set to no delay by default. I'm so glad I don't have to go out and replace my mouse
What exactly was it that disappointed you about the bluetooth performance?

On some of the ROM/kernels floating around I have had TERRIBLE bluetooth performance, voice wouldn't work to dial numbers over a bluetooth connection, but would work during a phone call, couldn't connect to more than one device without restarting the phone.
However Assassin Rom with the kernel that comes stock with it, that fixes all the problems I have had with bluetooth.

Oh man, I had no idea! It's been ok for what I've used it for, up until this problem, but now its fixed I'm pretty happy with it.
I just wished bluetooth used less battery.. or if the phone powered itself by creating energy :fingers-crossed: but thats probably only going to happen in 4.3
Also, try connecting to wifi using 5ghz (if you are on wifi). I have terrible problems when using 2.4ghz wifi and bluetooth together.

This solved my problem.
There's just not enough bandwidth available for 3 simultaneous devices connected to the same device on 2.4GHz band.
I have tried two different USB keyboards (Cherry evolution stream XT, Cherry G80-3000) but none of them seems to work.
Both keyboards are working when connected to a pc. The OUYA usb port recognizes my mouse. So I guess it has to be a software problem.
Anybody else encoutering similar problems or having an idea to solve this issue?
I didn't find a single thread where a corded USB keyboard didn't work. I have no other keyboard to test .

I have had problems in this area as well. For me pulling the power, plugging in the keyboard, and then putting the power back seems to work a lot of the time. Sometimes it is just a matter of doing it a bunch of time until the keyboard is finally recognized. To me, this issue speaks to the build quality and software quality of the Ouya in general. Stuff like this makes the Ouya pain in the a** for the masses.

What about using the power button to initiate a real shut down before attaching the keyboard.
It seems the OUYA is not built using parts from a single manufacturer and that has a lot to do with inconsistent performance.

I tried everything mentioned in this thread at least a few times with the two different keyboards with no effect.
I pulled the cord, plugged both keyboards in and turned it on. Powered it off with the hardware button and pluged the keyboard in. Searched the options for any signs of a keyboard that is connected but just not activated.
I also tried different builts (there was an auto update). None seems to work.

No. I tried using a hub as a fix but it didn't help.
I'm absolutely clueless.
I guess installing a custom rom or a bootloader is no option without a working keyboard. The OUYA seems to be a complete waste of time and money so far. Only crap games, worst "store"/rom ever, loud fan, controller with input lag and XBMC not working properly. Unfortunately people seem to have recognized how bad this thing is, where I live the resell value is free falling.

I am at a loss as well. I'm not sure how attached you are to your current install on the OUYA but you could try to sideload the latest OTA. I am pretty sure you can do all that without a USB keyboard attached via ADB. You could also fastboot CWM and see if it is recognized then. Just a couple shot in the dark idea but as if a mouse works, the USB port must be working.
I borrowed a logitech keyboard from a friend and it's working like a charm.
The problem seems to be "cherry only".
That sucks. Now I have to buy a new keyboard for this crapcube since my friend needs his keyboard.
Thanks for the advices to everyone.

I understand that Samsung is not supporting bluetooth keyboards since they want everyone to use the stylus. They probably never will. What I want to know is if someone who has experiencing the disconnect issue had it go away after a custom ROM was installed on their Note.

Hi Hackhound,
There are two workarounds:
-stream music to a Bluetooth headset while using the Keyboard. The constant music stream keeps the BT connection open. I've tested it and it works.
-install Bluetooth Keyboard Easyconnect. Follow the instructions. Don't loose faith. Play with it for some minutes. It took me five-ten minutes for the first time to get a proper setup. It works! And now I am able to use my keyboard! If I add External Keyboard Helper Pro with which I can remap my keyboard layout I can say that I have made my way to productivity heaven.
Oh I forgot to add that the latter solution works only with stock kernel on KitKat... Or at least I had problems with xluco v1 an haven't tested with v1.1. And I am on xKat v3.0 at the moment.
Cheers!

I hope this isnt a transient thing, but installing BK Easyconnect seems to have solved my BT keyboard disconnect. Bluetooth keyboard has disconnected just once during the past 2 hours of use, and that was during a 10 min idle period. No other"fix" had worked to keep my BT keyboards connectd up until now, and I have tried all of them mentioned on this forum and elsewhere (factory reset, set timeout to never, toggle onscreen keepboard switch, "Null keyboard" app, "bluetooth keepalive" app, remove sd card, and probably more things that I cant remember)! Major props to you and the developer of the app. I was about to give up on this otherwise wonderful tablet. I just hope its not a fluke....I'll keep this thread updated if things change. You might want to post your fix in the 14 page long Bluetooth keyboard disconnect thread here. Im sure others will appreciate it )
Im running hashcheck 4.4.2 ROM and using the Motorola keyboard with the built in cursor stick mouse. Both keyboard and mouse functions are working. No lag, no stutter, no constant disconnects every 5 seconds *** crossing fingers****

Hi sam2c,
I am glad that I could help You out but I have to confess that I was not the wise one. After many attempts I have found the solution by just Googling around with different keyword combinations... And on a foreign language google play comment there was this gem.
Anyway I'll post it on the BT KB thread.
