Hi, since the new jellybean update i can't hook my keyboard and mouse to the xperia s. I've been using the live Dock for this. But it doesn't recognize any input.
Can somebody try it with a standard usb-on the go cable?
Livedock is working, but it seems Mouse and Keyboard Support was dropped with Jellybean.
I always used my logitech mouse and keyboard combo and my xperia s as a media center.
Dropped? Impossible
I will check later with my keyboard and mouse, but I still have the mouse/trackpad speed setting in the language & input menu after updating to JB
UPDATE: Yeah, both keyboard and mouse work in JB using a standard usb otg cable. Must be a LiveDock thing.

What mouse and keyboard do you have? I'm using a Logitech Unified Wirless Keyboard and Mouse which worked on ICS with Livedock.
Is there any other solution besides the soyn livedock, to use keyboard and mouse while simulatenously charge the phone?

I have the Razer Orochi (both USB and bluetooth modes work with JB) and it has a virtual keyboard (for executing macros).

Live dock isn't recognized by the phone since the ICS Update, but i can use it to charge the phone while using a usb stick. The Phone now only rotates to landscape when the hdmi calbe is connected.
But its u bummer that my USB Keyboard+Mouse doesn't work anymore.
Sony DK10 LiveDock™ multimedia station works just fine as I see it.
I have tested it on an XPERIA LT26i v4.1.2 with 6.2.B.0.200 ROM with DoomKernel v1 on the following devices:
Aten 4 port USB switch
SanDisk 32GB USB FAT32 flash drive
SDcard/USB card reader
Targus 7 port USB powered hub
Old Dell wireless keyboard
Logitech mouse(non-unifying)
USB non-powered hub.
WD 320GB HDD (FAT32) via Targus powered USB hub.
Canon USB printer
All the above work while powering the phone with one(only) storage device connected at any given time.
A lot of keyboards and mouse(s) may work too, including Logitech mouse(s)/keyboards... just not 2.4GHz Logitech Unifying receivers.
Logitech Unifying receivers and Sony 6.2.B.0.200 ROM do not seem to play well together at the moment.
There is a new firmware release 6.2.B.0.211 coming soon, so fingers crossed this improves things.
The reason I sound so hopeful is that the Logitech Unifying Receiver does show up as a connected device and it doesn't create an error in doing so.
@DooMLoRD did indicate he would look at what options are available to get the back and middle context menu buttons working again on mice, as they stopped working in ICS onwards. Respect, if he can pull that one off. :victory:
Could it be because you where using DoomKernel? I'm on locked Bootloader and Stock Jellybean. I don't have those Options like in your screenshot.

It is possible.
I know I checked my DK10 LiveDock using a leaked 6.2.B.0.197 ROM without any modified kernel and nothing worked with only an error.
I was testing my Unifying USB mouse at the time as I was hoping against all hope, it'd work and we'd have back and context buttons...alas, I was disappointed.
I seem to remember then, just plugging in a SanDisk 32GB flash drive directly into the DK10 LiveDock on it's one USB port as a sanity test and that worked on a leaked ROM(but I could be wrong).
So then I just ignored my DK10 LiveDock until the official Sony 6.2.B.0.200 ROM came out.
Under normal operation, my DK10 LiveDock is connected to an Aten 4-Port USB switch as the first hop which is then farmed out(when device selected) to over 15 USB 2.0 ports which only takes one port to have a NTFS storage device and the whole thing goes pear-shape.
As an aside @DooMLoRD has listed NTFS MicroUSB port support in his Kernel too.
So, before I installed DoomKernel v1.0 which was only minutes after I installed 6.2.B.0.200 I'd not isolated the DK10 LiveDock and done a controlled test.
I only did a controlled test after DoomKernel v1 was installed, that's why I have an eclectic list of devices which I have tested and seen to work with the DK10 LiveDock.
When I installed the next Sony 6.2.B.0.211 ROM I'll update this post with my finding on the DK10 LiveDock before I install DooMKernel as I too, would like to see the Logitech Unifying mouse/keyboard working.
Just tried using my mouse and keyboard with an otg adapter and yep it no longer works for me too. The phone doesnt even show an error it just does nothing
There is a huge list of growing bugs in this thread

Lets add our problem to that..
Sony DK10 LiveDock™ multimedia station
As promised, I have installed Sony 6.2.B.0.211 with root access, BUT no DoomKernel at this time.
I have not even done the first reboot after installing
Sony 6.2.B.0.211 fw.
I am able to connect and use the Sony DK10 LiveDock™ multimedia station.
The DK10 LiveDock™ multimedia station also powers my phone.
The DK10 LiveDock™ multimedia station is working with the following devices I have tested.
Aten 4 port USB switch
SanDisk 32GB USB FAT32 flash drive
Targus 7 port USB powered hub
Logitech mouse(non-unifying)
USB non-powered hub.
Directly connected to the DK10 dock, is an Aten 4 port USB 2.0 switch (which is display as a connected device) which is then connected to a Targus 7 port USB 2.0 hub.
As a giggle, an additional 4 port USB 2.0 non-power hub is just plugged into the Targus 7 port hub with a 32GB flash drive attached and that works.
I also have two Dell 24" IPS monitors with USB ports which all work in this melee.
This gives a combination of over 16+ USB ports connected/daisy-chained off the Sony DK10 LiveDock™ multimedia station and they all seem to be available.
Logitech 2.4GHz Unifying Mouse/keyboard still does NOT work!!!!
The Logitech 2.4GHz adapter is still shown as connected AND there is no noted errors related to this adapter when plugged in or removed.
Summary
With or without DoomKernel provided by @DooMLoRD the DK10 works and powers the phone on an XPERIA LT26i using Sony 6.2.B.0.211 fw.
Logitech 2.4GHz wireless Unifying adapters for Mouse/Keyboard still don't work.
can't run corsair survivor 8gb on my sxs,show me''USB power consumption error''
What kind of app do I need for controlling a tablet with FireTV via my K400r keyboard?
There must be some kind of app with bluetooth communication that can make my FireTV hooked K400r keyboard act as the physical keyboard for the tablet.
The only USB is a micro one,while the keyboard only works with mini USB and normal USB via adapter.
I wanna try various things with the comfort of a physical keyboard and mouse without needing to buy another keyboard with bluetooth.
Also,is there a root method for RCA 7 Mercury with 4.4 KitKat?
Towelroot says "not yet supported" when trying.
Hi,
I am trying to connect a USB mouse with my LG V20.
I have to use office system thru VMware (only occasionally) and if i have a mouse that would really help.
I tried 2 different OTG USB to USB C adaptors, but the mouse does not seem to work or load. These OTG adapters load external SD card or flash drive without problems.
I have tried a wired mouse as well as Microsoft wireless mouse.
Is there any setting or an app that is needed?
I can buy a Bluetooth mouse if you think that will work with this phone. but if i dont have to buy an extra mouse that would be great.
thank you
Hi guys, I'm having a problem with my Chiq 50in Android TV. I added a bluetooth mouse for use with Chrome browser (via Sideloader) because using the remote is a pain. Problem is, the mouse works perfectly...except for one thing. When I need to enter text, the mouse won't select from the onscreen keyboard, so I have to resort to the remote again which is so slow. Any ideas or suggestions?
Would a keyboard work for inputting text?
Late reply. Still useful
