[Q] G2 keyboard used as bluetooth keyboard? - G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps

Hey everyone, I was wondering if it would be possible to make an app/mod that would allow you to pair your phone to a computer or tablet via bluetooth as a bluetooth keyboard? I'm imagining pairing it with a tablet and using the paired phone's physical keyboard to enter text so you get more screen space for viewing content.

Won't work. Not possible.

Have not seen anything like that, but there are apps that let you use the android phone as the pc keyboard. Perhaps you could start there.

[Q] calling app developers

heres one for all you app developers out there,
having just purchased an acer aspire one 521 netbook, after upgrading the HDD from 160gb to 640GB, and adding some more ram, then swapping out the std wireless, to include int bluetooth, i have now connected this to my tv via hdmi, and am now looking for a keyboard/mouse that actually functions correctly, currently using a keyboard i got from maplins (but i will be returning it tomorrow as it keeps loosing the connection forcing me to reboot the keyboard.
it was while i was checking oput my SGS when i thought why not ask if is possible to make an app (i do not have the tech knowledge to do such a thing) to turn the touch screen into a bluetooth keyboard or mouse, via a toggle switch.
i have seen in the supported bluetooth profiles it can support bluetooth HID (human interface device) so im asking any app developer willing to take on such a task (you may even be able to charge for it in the market place), as currently there is no solution to this.

thing i don't like about gmote is that it requires server-software instead of just using bluetooth hid

[Q] Possible for gaming?

Hey guys i was wondering if it is at all possible to have a bluetooth mouse and keyboard connect to the phone to play games on it while mirroring the image or using the web top dock hack.
Has anyone tried this yet?
My magic trackpad and wireless keyboard work great with my atrix hooked to my tv. Not sure about gaming though.

Will any Bluetooth Mouse work?

I have a bluetooth keyboard from logitech, and it makes the tablet much easier to use, more of a laptop experience. Now I wanted to use the tablet connected to my TV, but find it a hassle to have to use the screen to select things. ect.
My question is, will any bluetooth mouse work? Logitech has a special android mouse, but its $50! I see other bluetooth mice out there for about $10-20.
Will any bluetooth mouse work? Or do I need a "special" android tablet mouse?
Thanks!
No. You need to be sure that the mouse pairs with the tablet via a 4 digit code (usually 1234 or 0000). The Targus bluetooth laser mouse (AMB03US) supposedly doesn't need a code, but I couldn't get the tablet to pair without it. I switched to a different mouse (Targus Bluetooth Comfort Mouse #BH3874)which used a code and it worked flawlessly.
yes ı use atech bt630 is work
YEAP!!
Yes!! With current Technology, many Bluetooth Mouse are possible to be paired with tablets. Some of them is specially built for pairing purposes too You may ask Acer/Tablet Specialists near your area, for ensuring your Tablet A1000 is confirmed compatible to your plan-to-buy Bluetooth mouse
If this helps and convinces you, pls kindly hit ''thanks'' button

I took the risk and bought a cheap "slim black bluetooth mouse" from ebay ($10) and it works! Im currently using the logitech android keyboard. I know any bluetooth keyboard will work, but the Android specific funtions really make things easier.
Hello. I have a bluetooth keyboard and mouse that pairs and connects succesfully but after entering in idle state for a few seconds they both stop working until i press on the keyboard or mouse. Is that normal? Is there a way to avoid this idle state and loss of connection?

Does not shows mouse pointer on N7 screen
Argh! i've been trying more than 1 week figuring how to let my nexus 7(2013) shows the mouse pointer. I was able to use my bt mouse at the 1st time connected to N7 but after disconnect and reconnect it again, it does not works anymore. i have try to unpair and pair it again several times, restart my device, it did paired with N7 but it doesn't shows the pointer on the screen. i am sure my bt mouse works well, i am able to use it on my pc and SGS 3 but not my N7 after disconnect it. Anyone having this issue too?

Bluetooth working mouse with Android devices
Hi
Last month I bought Modecom BT keyboard with case and mouse (set) for Sony Xperia Z2 tablet.
Keyboard - model Modecom MC-TKC10BT and mouse model - Modecom MC-BM6
Keybaord has worked well since beginig, but I have had problems with mouse - flickering, many stops,
completely unusefull.
I have paired both devices with Samsung Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005 (rooted - X-Note ROM version - 16.0 by Soloilmeglio - Xentrix
Android based 4.4.2) and there was the same problem (only with mouse).
I have thought there is Android problem, but I have bought new - cheap mouse Esperanza Model EM123K and it works well and smoothly.
There is not any stops and disruptions.
It seems that is not an Android problem (As I wrote on some internet sites and forums), but hardware problem with some bluetooth devices.
Best regards
Marek

Hi guys my buddy gave me an Apple BlueTooth Keyboard he had laying around and I want to use it for my Samsung Galaxy tab running Tasks ROM, I'm trying to hook up to the keyboard but it says "Can't communicate with 40:30:04...."
Is there a workaround for this or are these mac only keyboards?

Root and Bluetooth?

I am hoping someone can answer this for me. Will the recently released root capabilities allow me to connect a Bluetooth keyboards that requires a password? This is something that the Fire TV couldn't do previously.

Bluetooth Keyboard with built in touchpad
I am also very interested in this....
Is it possible to get the bluetooth settings to work with my motorolla keyboard and touchpad combo (Motorolla KZ500)? I get it to pull up the settings to see the keyboard and prompt to type in numbers but it doesnt receive anything I input at this step.
I will keep trying and let OP know if I find anything, but I am not a real android dev by any stretch.
I got my Logitech PlayStation 3 Cordless MediaBoard Pro to link with a generic usb dongle. It is great because it has a mouse pad built in
Got it to Connect - But not functional
I succeeded at getting the Motorolla KZ500 keyboard & touchpad combo to connect to the Fire TV through the use of the android settings.apk and typing in the numerical prompt. - I am on the latest firmware and am rooted now, if that matters.
However, despite showing up as an input device, no keypresses or mousepad movements are registering with the device. Does anyone know what could be wrong?
When I use a USB keyboard and mouse, it has no problem registering all of that.
