Bluetooth keyboard - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

have you SE A/A s guys have the Bluetooth HID on you phones so you can pair Bluetooth keyboards and mouses?

Try installing BlueInput and then connect the keyboard.
Note - RF based wireless KB will not work.

Does that require root?

Mighty Keyboard

Any idea how to pair my Mighty Keyboard to Evo?
is this a bluetooth keyboard, htc sense devices have an outdated bluetooth stack or something or other, that doesn't allow BT keyboards and wiimotes to work with sense devices, from what i've read on here.
Yeah it's BT. I was able to detect it but not pair.

Bluetooth Mouse

Is there any way to distinguish between a "Bluetooth mouse" that uses a USB dongle and a Bluetooth mouse that will connect directly to the Xoom? I have 2 wireless Bluetooth Logitech mice, but neither will pair with my Xoom.
I've seen some lists of Bluetooth mice for other tablets, but nobody really clarifies if they are connecting via a dongle or not.
Any insight is appreciated.

Bluetooth is a standard; the dongle that comes with a bluetooth mouse is a courtesy if your laptop doesn't have bluetooth integrated (and not necessary if it doesn't). There are wireless mice that come with proprietary wireless dongles, but that's not the same as bluetooth. You can tell if it's really bluetooth because it will have the bluetooth logo on it (it's an oval with a stylized "B" in it. Google it). (There is more than one bluetooth standard, mostly those are for different audio connections, but for a bluetooth mouse produced in the last few years these make no difference).
Edit: Also, I'm assuming you're using 3.1, which enables bluetooth mice. If you are (like me) waiting for the 3.1 update, bluetooth mice will find the tablet but you can't use them...

Connecting bluetooth mouse

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

After reading many reports, Paul from Google had the following response on 8/19: "Thanks for the feedback about Bluetooth keyboard compatibility with your new Nexus 7 tablets. We're looking into it." Nothing from Paul since.
About half of the keyboards don't connect at all while the other half suffer repeated keystrokes, gibberish, non-functional with wireless etc. Choose your favorite incompatibility:

Google is telling people to buy BT 3.0 compliant keyboards but you should note that several BT 3.0 keyboards don't work with 4.3.
As for other options, I wouldn't believe that any BT devices are compatible with 4.3 unless I see it for my own eyes or have someone I trust verify.
On that note, I got a Perixx 804 Bluetooth Keyboard today and confirm that it works with the Nexus 7 2012 and Nexus 7 2013 running 4.3. It pairs, types without repeated keystrokes, works with wifi 2.4 and 5.0 etc.

It's thin and light but not foldable. It works which makes it a rare-bird indeed.

If you need a bluetooth keyboard that works with the 2013 Nexus 7.. I have the Logitech K810 and it works.. Just a heads up. Its rechargeable and it's backlit and can pair with 3 devices... Hope that helps someone..
I can no longer pair/connect with Britelink Bluetooth Audio Receiver
Seems like issue isn't just related to keyboards or nexus, etc.
