Yes. I have succeeded with the Logitech diNovo keyboard/mousepad.

Really? Very good!!!! Thank you!

Yes, it works with all the BT mice and keyboards that I have, except for the Apple BT keyboard ....... strange.

Where Are Mouse Cursors Stored?
The cursor is quite small and I would like to use a larger one - does anyone know where the cursors are stored on the A100?

Haha, treu that! Never trust compatibility with Apple, cuz, there is none...
You need your A100 rooted in order to check where it is. I am currently to lazy but to look it up.

It sure will! I am using the Logitech Bluetooth Keyboard for Android, and it works great.

Just tested here on my Iconia Tab A100 with ICS and it works perfectly!

Thank for the info

I get heavy stutter with the Logitech Android BT keyboard and the V470 when using at the same time with HDMI display. Really disappointing.

[Q] Apple Magic Mouse with the GTab 10.1 with 3.1

Has anyone gotten it working with the Galaxy Tab 10.1 Google IO LE with 3.1? I've gotten it to connect but can't use anything with it (not even the Android OS). If you have gotten it to work please share with us how you did it. Thanks in advance!

Same here. It paird and recognized as a mouse. But doesn't do anything.
I have read that it works with Xoom running 3.1 so in theory it should work with Galaxy. Did you guys try with different mouse? (non apple mouse)
i just received my Apple bluetooth keyboard and magic trackpad that i got off ebay for my mac, but i got curious and paired both of them with my IO tab, and they are working great, im actually typing this from the keyboard and the trackpad works except for the 2 finger scroll, but hey i cant complain.
and i have updated to 3.1, not rooted.

Tried my Apple Magic mouse on my friends Xoom with 3.1 and it works, but it definitely does not work on my GTab with 3.1.

I just tried my Apple Magic Mouse on my Samsung GalTab 10.1 with 3.1 and I can confirm that it does not work.
However, the Apple Magic Trackpad does work. (The gestures don't work, but the 2 basic features of moving the cursor and clicking do work.)

Everything is the same here, except mine is rooted. Same results here.
BTW, when you are using the Apple bluetooth keyboard, does the onscreen keyboard pop up too? I can close it and keep using the Apple bluetooth keyboard, but every time I move into a text field, the onscreen keyboard pops up again. It's a bit annoying.
It's not just 2 finger scroll that doesn't work -- none of the trackpad gestures work. The gestures are what make the Magic Trackpad "magical." But I didn't really expect them all to work completely, although I was hoping for the basic features.
It would be a dream if we could get something like BetterTouchTool for android:

To clarify my own response, this is exactly what I saw with the Magic Mouse. It pairs and connects. But it doesn't do anything.
When I doubled clicked a few times I did get the same message that I got when connecting the BT keyboard. So I guess Android thinks the Magic Mouse is a keyboard.
Also, as I already said, the Apple Magic Trackpad does work. But it lacks gesture support. So I guess that even if the Magic Mouse would work, it would not have the magical gestures.
+1 I'm trying to get this to work wit the magic mouse and id love better touch tool for honeycomb.

None of the gestures on mine work either, I just mentioned the two finger scroll cuz that's the only gesture I was really hoping worked. The keyboard displays on mine aswell when I get to a text field.
The uplink initiative thing is just me being a dork with my sig lol I had actually typed initiated but misspelled it and it corrected it as initiative and I just sounded kooler lmao I'm such a geek.

Just tried it after putting the 1.4 GHz overclock kernel. Same result (Not working)
the suport is def. in my custom kernel for this device.
i rolled in a bunch of patches specifically for it.
what exactly is not working?

the support is for magic 'trackpad'.
Yeah this is the magic mouse. It has gestures on it, but is also a mouse. The problem is that the GT 10.1 seems to detect it as a keyboard once it connects. When the mouse is connected it doesn't do anything for the tablet.
Anyone try the Magic Trackpad with the Retail 10.1 (US WiFi for me) with Pershoots kernel?
I may break this post out since the title is off topic from [OP]
magic mouse does not work with me either

my Apple Magic Mouse oairs and connects to my GSlate running 3.1, but it doesnt do anything.
Pershoot, even magic trackpad doesn't work. I've tried both the trackpad and magic mouse, both pairs and connects with the tab, but there's no cursor or anything appears at all

BT mouse is not a keyboard dangit!

Hey all, I'm loving my new 10.1 Pro. One thing that I'm having trouble with is that when I connect a BT mouse (have tried 2 so far), the tablet thinks it's also the default keyboard... ???? Cannot get the onscreen keyboard to work unless I disconnect the mouse. I also have a BT keyboard that still works, and is also the default keyboard. I cannot figure out how to fix this. Any ideas?

[Q] Apple Earpods compatibility

Hello,
I want to simply ask, do the Apple Earpods work for this device? I surely don't care for the mic and the remote, just if the sound works because on some mobiles, the Apple Earpods sounds deformated and only when I press the button the sound is clear. And btw. I read on Google, that Sony devices with the JB update disables the third-party headphones being used, is that right? If yes, are there any fixes or custom made patches?
It works pretty well for me.
Well I always use 3rd party earphones/headphones and I face no problems with them.
As for the apple earpods, I can't help you there as mine have worn out and dont even work properly with my iPod.

It should work fine (not sure about the mic though)
And yes, Sony devices with the JB update disables the third-party headphones being used
However, you can overcome that problem by removing the UnsupportedHeadsetNotifier.apk

I do not know why. Maybe because both the manufacturers use different standards (as you guessed).

[Q] mouse for Fire TV Stick - IOS

I know there is an app for Anroid; still nothing for IOS?
How about bluetooth mouse? an actual mouse that runs on bluetooth it should cost around 10-11$?
If you didn't sideload settings.apk all you do is sideload it and pair with via bluetooth menu.
Hmm. That might work. I use the stick mostly for when I travel. Do you have a recommendation for a cheap non-bulky mouse?

If you are looking to buy a BT mouse, why not just get the KB & Mouse combo. I have this and works good with the stick.

It is a small size, light weight and ideal for travel.

The Nyko Playpad Pro at Gamestop might be more convenient than just a similarly priced mouse.

The air keyboard FAQ says that on non routed versions you can only run air keyboard light, which doesn't support mouse emulation. Did you get this to work with the fire TV stick?

XBOX One Slim Controller Bluetooth

No One will know until it comes out could have proprietary aspects to it like the ds4 controller.

It doesn't really work with the shield yet, even with the Xbox driver kernel. It's detected, and will pair, but a lot of the buttons are mismapped, and I haven't found a way around that yet.
Some games on Windows actually have the same problem as well.

after firmware update it works but you have to pair every time you start the controller on android.
and the button layout is different than the Xbox 360.
someone need to make an app to fix those small issues.
on my PC side everything works after the Bluetooth stack and driver update for the anniversary from broadcom.
my PC use a all in one Bluetooth and wifi chip from them.

The shield just doesn't map the controller to the Xbox 360 layout correctly. if you have an app where you can bind inputs, like an emulator, all the inputs are active...and you can bind them all manually and it's usable. But if your game does not have that, or is expecting xinput commands, the buttons are wrong, the bumpers seem to be Y, triggers don't seem to do anything etc.

This is disappointing. Surely there will be an update that fixes this :'(
If your controller is updated and you have root, you could try to use a new keymap for the controller.
My keymap: http://www14.zippyshare.com/v/anLAfS7e/file.html
Download that file and copy it to
Code:
/system/usr/keylayout/
Then set the permissions to 644.
This should work.

worked for me , thanks for sharing.
For those it didn't work this is what I did , downloaded file on Shield TV *rooted btw* copied to /system/usr/keylayout/ , unpaired controller , restarted shield tv, repaired and now as far as I can tell all the buttons are working as they are supposed to.
Only issues so far is still seems like apps still dont like the controller even if properly mapped. Emulators for the most part work with every button.

The key layout works perfectly, thanks a ton.
Im having the issue where the controller will not "find" my Shield tablet or my nexus phone after being disconnected. I have to repair it every single damn time, and the pairing process is a massive pain in the ass that fails most of the time. I have updated the firmware and it just seems like the controller blinks endlessly.
I can confirm the Layout works without any issues on my rooted Samsung S7. Good job! Thank you very much.
There is a new firmware update for the controller that works perfect on my shield tv. No patch needed.
Can someone post a link to what exact model this is?

it is no more needed now,microsoft fixed this problem by releasing a firmware update on the controller.
you can update your Xbox one S controller by plugging it to your Xbox one or by using the Xbox accessories app on the windows store.
