I was wondering if anyone has tried attaching (tethering?) multiple BT devices to the Xoom at the same time. For example, having a keyboard connected while tethered to a phone. Although I know that this is not an iPhone forum I was wondering if I could connect the Xoom to the iPhone via BT and still use a hands-free set (e.g. while driving I want to use the Xoom as navigator and have traffic shown).
Thanks guys!
Multiple bluetooth devices connected simultaneously is possible. I was on about an hour long train the other day, and the whole time, I had my Xoom (not activated, no data) bluetooth tethered to my Droid while also connected to my bluetooth headphones to listen to music. Worked great!
Thanks, I'll try it on my way home tonight! Let's hope that Steve Jobs allows the iPhone to share the BT connection
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.

My tab connects fine to my Bluetooth keyboard for the HP touchpad.
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.
Anyone try out Bluetooth yet? Is it up to par with AOSP's Bluetooth stacks? Has HTC finally stopped putting archaic BT functionality into their ROMs and actually made it possible to use things like Wiimote/Sixaxis/Dual Shock 3/Bluetooth keyboard and mouse on their phones?
Can anyone answer if HOX supports Bluetooth HID?
I don't know why there's no replies, but yes it's using the standard BT Stack, HID and all.
I use a bluetooth GPS receiver in my car for two reasons
1. It has an athermic windscreen and the bluetooth GPS with an antenna in the back window gets a much better signal
2. I use it as a trigger for a tasker script so that the phone knows that it is in my car
I am thinking of putting a bluetooth audio receiver in the car as well so that I can stream music from the phone to the car speakers
Is the One-X capable of simultaneously communicating with two different bluetooth devices?
thanks
gps test?
Which to do gps test my one x ?
I use an app called "Bluetooth GPS Provider" which works brilliantly. I think that is what your question meant?
Mine will connect to hands free and my obd2 reader at the same time via bluetooth. Do you have a way of testing before buying?
i think if it uses different protocols for each device then it would work
ie if one used a2dp and the other uses whatever gps uses, then yeah i think it would work , but best bet is to test it out first
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
I just purchased one of these at a bargain [24.99 and no shipping costs] and the scrolling doesn't even remotely work. Are there any drivers for to e3nable the 4-way scrolling or do we have to wait?

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.

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.
