Connecting bluetooth mouse - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi and happy new year to all,
I've got a logitech bt mouse (the one that come with the keyboard - MX5500 revolution).
I've been trying to pair the arc (v.4.0.2.a.0.42) by this procedure:
- starting the bluetooth (phone)
- make the phone discoverable (phone)
- putting the mouse into pair mode (mouse)
- scanning bluetooth devices from the phone (phone)
- Pairing with mouse (code '0000')(phone)
and then in the screen appear the screenshot attached
so does anybody encounter this problem and how to solve?
does the arc support bluetooth mouses? which ones?

Use BlueInput. Android doesn't have native Bluetooth HID support.

Does not work, I've just installed the blueinput and cannot make it work as a mouse

Maybe you need to connect the receiver

Is it a bluetooth mouse or RF based wireless mouse?

I use the Bluetooth Keyboard EasyConnect to connect my microsoft bluetooth mouse 5000, this worked ok.

Maybe this thread will help you -

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...

Did you have any luck registering, I'm running into the same thing?
No drivers on the cd.
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.

[Q] Did anybody use the bluetooth on a100 successfully?

I have a bluetooth mouse and have connected with my Iconia tab a100 already, but it doesn't work. There is no cursor on the screen. Also, there's no use moving the mouse.
I have tried the same mouse on another android cellphone and it worked.
How can I make it work on a100?
And have anyone tried it?
I have succeeded connecting a Logitech Dinovo keyboard /mousepad to my A100.
You have to pair the tablet to the mouse, then enter a code to connect them together.
I was able to pair my folding bluetooth keyboard (stowaway) w/ it. My problem is i use my tablets on my dashboard as my music source (also navigation, etc.) and it doesn't seem to find the bluetooth audio in my car - won't even show up in pairing mode.
If i can't get this to work, I'm definitely taking it back and getting a 7" Toshiba Thrive or the Galaxy Tab Plus when they come out.
My car tells me that my A100 has connected successfully...
I use a Sync system in a 2011 Ford Focus and use it for navigation and music and it pairs and works perfectly.
I used a bluetooth keyboard successfully but can't use the mouse, did anyone use the bluetooth mouse on a100 successfully?
Yes I do use a Logitech 470 that I have paired through Astro bluetooth from the Market and then the regular device's bluetooth program.

Yes.. I was able to pair with my LG Esteem and send files via bluetooth...
tether?
Has anyone found a solution (3rd party spftwate or otherwise) that works for Bluetooth tethering to an iPhone? 3GS OS5 jailbroken and soon to be rooted iconia a100.
I use NC tether from the market to tether with my iPhone 4.

After seeing rEVOLVE's post, I remembered an old Stowaway Think Outside folding Bluetooth keyboard. It connected and seems to work fine with the A100, although I can't figure out how to use it for any special commands, such as Home, End, or such functions as going directly to the Calendar, Contacts, etc. Any help there would be appreciated.
It will not connect to my car stereo (Kenwood KDC-695).
With my phone (T-Mobile G2x), it will pair but do nothing else. (The phone reports, "paired but not connected" and won't connect.)
Other than the keyboard, I haven't found any other use for the Bluetooth on this device. I'm wondering if rooting it or some other program would help.
I have used it to connect to bluetooth speakers, headset, car, and tethering. I do not have a bluetooth keyboard to test.

microsoft intellimouse explorer for bluetooth

Hi,
I'm trying to connect the microsoft intellimouse explorer for bluetooth to the xoom.
Unfortunately the xoom BT requires a passkey to be entered to pair the device.
The Microsoft mouse is not using a passkey to pair.
What am I doing wrong?
Any workaround for this?
i have tried to enter 0000 or 1234 but did no pair.
Please HELP
Thanks
MS and Targus mice su**s.
Maybe 0123?
found this thread with some numbers, but they didn't have any luck either. May be one of them will work for you. good luck.

I too have one of these guys, if we're talking about the same one its the very first BT mouse that MS made, soft touch blue with a silver dongle stand and a matching blue dongle? I read somewhere that it came out before HID profile was finalized so it relied on intellipoint to tell the dongle to initiate the pairing process. Mac guys had problems with pairing until they updated the software to include the mouse so i'm inclined to believe that explaination. If the device doesn't have the ability to pair without using a passkey, theres no way to pair the mouse as it has no passkey in it. I've tried the usual keys on my transformer as well as TP with cm9 and 2 evos all to no avail.
If u can't get that one to work for u, I use the Microsoft Bluetooth notebook mouse 9000. Works great!

Hey! Just found a solution!!! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jpn.frontia.waka.Bluetooth
Worked on my Samsung N7000 and BT Genius mouse:
1.Install app and open it
2.Make BT devices search and find your mouse
3.Push single button on the top of application screen
4.Little message apperes below like "ChineseSymbols!"
5.Turn your BT off and on
6. Take a look at you paired BT devices
7. PROFIT!!!

I can confirm it works on my Samsung Galaxy S3. Btw, the app is in Japanese not Chinese. After you clicked on the mouse in the app to pair it you will need to go to the settings of the mouse and use it as a pointer.

[Q] Issues using both Bluetooth keyboard and mouse

I have both a new Thinkpad Bluetooth mouse and a new Amazon Basics Bluetooth keyboard. If I try and pair both of them to my Galaxy Nexus, I end up getting dropouts and duplicates on the keyboard. Disconnect the mouse, and keyboard is perfect.
The pair (Keyboard and Mouse) work perfectly when linked to my laptop.
Anyone else tried using both bluetooth mouse and keyboard ?
Any suggestions ?

Bluetooth keyboard and mouse at the same time

I have a Microsoft Wedge Bluetooth Keyboard and I'm planing to buy a bluetooth mouse. But there are lots of complaints about connecting a bluetooth keyboard and a bluetooth mouse at the same time.
Does anyone using succesfully Microsoft Wedge Bluetooth Keyboard and a bluetooth mouse at the same time? If yes or no what brand/model is your bluetooth mouse?

I don't have a Wedge but I have a Zagg Flex BT keyboard and Gearhead BT mouse and have no problems using them together. In fact, I often use my BT Clarion stereo speaker to listen to Tunein radio while I have the keboard and mouse in use. The one thing I do is connect the keyboard first.
I have several brands of BT mice and BT keyboards and they all work together just fine.
I have a bluetooth Ms mouse and a generic bluetooth keyboard with touch pad. If they are both connected, the mouse lags regardless if the trackpad is turned on or not. I am probably going to replace the KB first and see if that clears it up.
Ynt: Bluetooth keyboard and mouse at the same time
I will buy Microsoft Wedge Bluetooth mouse or Microsoft Sculpt Bluetooth Storm Mouse. I read somewhere android system sees sculpt mouse as a bluetooth keyboard. So there should be a conflict. Do you think this is true?

It shouldn't be a problem at all- the "USB HID" protocol (which is what BT mice/keypads/trackpads/etc. use) will sum all devices of the same type (keyboard/pointer/...) so they'll all work together.
(However, the system might enforce exclusive access to a particular type, but I think it only does that for exclusive-use devices like headsets and headphones/)
Ok, I bought the Wedge Mouse.
As I pair it, I can see it as a bluetooh mouse in bluetooth settings. That's ok. But when it connects, a popup says "Bluetooth keyboard connected". I also connect Wedge Keyboard and again get the popup "Bluetooth keyboard connected".
When I use them together, keyboard starts to repeat my key strokes resulting as "Ooohhhhh whaaaaaat's ggooooooinnggg oooonnnnn???". I can also see a little lag for mouse. Like they are using both the same frequency/channel/protocol (whatever it is) and there's a conflict.
What can I do?

That's essentially what the BT spec is doing , but it's OK, they're all made to multiplex together.
For the repeated keys- try changing order that you connect it with when using multiple BT devices
For the mouse-tracking speed, try changing the tracking speed in "Settings" (I wanna say in "Language and Input")
BTW, what Android version is your Note running? (Settings->About Tablet)

I installed External Keyboard Helper from Google Play and it helped preventing repeating keys. But still I feel uncomfortable.
It appears that there is a problem pairing a Wedge keyboard and mouse together in Windows and Android. There may be no fix for Android devices. If you can still return the mouse you might consider buying a non-MS mouse. Here's a link to a thread in an MS forum dicussing the issue you're having. http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-tms/wedge-mouse-wedge-keyboard-repeating-keys-help/069cf8de-da2e-49d1-ad14-128670ac0ccf

There is nothing special about it. When the mouse is paired, it should start scrolling. Are you you using Note 10.1? If yes which android version?

Note 10.1, OS 4.1.2. N8013.
It scrolls like a mouse usually does, but aside from that , the touch features are limited, though I seen on this review it can do horizontal scrolling.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oSeSrV3737w
I wonder if I'm doing something wrong or if its the tablet.
EDIT: Checked and the Xperia Launcher is not set for horizontal scroll, but Holo Launcher does it. I will email the developers on this .
I have Microsoft BT Notebook Mouse 5000, noname BT keyboard and BT speaker Bose SoundLink Mini. When i use mouse alone - all OK, it is smooth and fine. But when i connect BT speaker and\or keyboard - i have some lags and pointer moves stroked.
When i connect another mouse (simply wireless 2.4 ghz) via USB OTG - it OK. Phone - Sony Z Ultra (flashed to Google Play edition)
I think, mouse must have upper priority, how i can change it? Thanx!

You can't, but that's not the real issue anyway; I suspect one device's BT radio is out of specification and interfering with the rest. I use a mouse/keyboard/speaker trio quite often and they all play together. Plus, if you're connected to 2.4GHz WiFi at the same time, the WiFi will tend to make BT connections worse when you're actively receiving data, as they share the same band (in the 2.4GHz spectrum).

In this case, my mouse is the device, that interfering It lag with keyboard, and with speaker separetely. With keyboard only lag is litle low. Wifi disabling make lag little low. I know about one band, i was hoping that it frequency modulated(
Will try another mouse, but my mouse is n't cheap (i have bought it for $120 6 years ago) =(

This works perfectly:
1. MS Mouse 5000 (BT)
2. MS Keyboard 6000 (BT)
This does NOT work - it causes a lag/delay on the mouse - still trying to figure out why:
1. MS Mouse 5000 (BT)
2. MS Wedge Keyboard (BT) - this is a pretty new device - form is pefect, but I'm gonna return it because it makes my mouse not work
Thanks,
Richard
I have ms wedge keyboard and ms touch mouse, and they both works fine. For the keyboard I also needed to get the app called External keyboard helper pro to get all letters to work including altgr because android (atleast 412) doesnt understand altgr button and im using keyboard layout (finnish) which have extra letters and some symbols are behind altgr + key.
Hmm.. i think i had an issue too with the mouse jumping around, but the app also fixed this issue. Or was it only with the keyboard workin funny and repeating keystrokes... hmm i think it was actually the keyboard working funny but it was solved by that app.
