External USB Keyboard & Mouse for HTC 10? - HTC 10 Questions & Answers

Hey guys I'm thinking about getting the HTC 10 but want to ask if it has the ability to plug in a USB keyboard and/or mouse (when you plug in the mouse a cursor shows up on the phone) with it like you can on the S7 edge (it comes with a USB dongle). I use this for a unique situation at work where it comes in handy.
thanks

Bluetooth Mouse

With BT Mouse support coming in the next update, what kinds of mice are you guys planning to get or already have?
I'm looking at some on amazon, but I'm not sure which to get yet.
I was actually wondering if my magic mouse will work..... anyone know?

All over the place. Please see:

Though keep in mind, it won't be out for another two weeks (or possibly longer).
I assume it means when a mouse is connected, a mouse pointer shows up on screen right?
kinda hard without it !
I have an MS Bluetooth mouse 5000. I can connect it to my Xoom and It is showing as an input device, but it does not work.
only mouse I had working is a usb one I used on it. (Micro USB to USB Female connector)

What do you mean by "only mouse I had working"? I just plugged a USB mouse and nothing is showing up or doing anything, just lights it up.
that's the thing... try randomly clicking ... maybe there's just no mouse pointer on the screen?

Moved, clicked, scrolled, no reaction whatsoever on any software of the Xoom. I have no idea what that guy is talking about. I have yet to see anyone report any form of a working mouse on the Xoom.

[Q] Bluetooth BT Keyboard and Mouse

I see that USB Host/OTG seems to work with USB keyboards and mice.
Is there a way to get a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse to work?
I ask this because since the NG uses MHL, there is no way to power the device, use HDMI, AND use USB Host mode.
MHL does not provide for data use, just power.
I paired my Dinovo Mini and it just worked - keyboard input and mouse (a pointer appears).
That was one thing I never could get to work in Gingerbread.

Do you have access to an MHL adapter. I wonder if the cursor appears in HDMI mirror mode?

[Q] MHL cable, BT mouse & keayboard

Hi guys (and girls),
I have HTC One X with stock ROM on it. I got myself a MHL cable (not original, from dealextreme) and i had an idea to make some kind of notebook from my one X. I already have BT mouse and keyboard (both logitech) and monitor with HDMI input port.
When i pair mouse and keyboard with my phone everything works well, i can write messages, scroll and all other stuff, but problem happens when i connect that MHL cable from my phone to monitor. I get clear and good picture on my monitor and everything is good when controlling phone by touch, but when i try to control it by mouse and keyboard everything really slows down. Mouse cursor has great amount of lag, and typing with keyboard is nearly impossible.
I saw other people using this kind of combination on youtube and other places and as i can see everything goes without problem, did anyone had experience like i have or has a reason why is this happening??
Thanks
wow, that could be normal, 1080p output and 2 bluetooth devices shouldn't be easy to handle together

Mouse Connected using OTG Adapter but not showing pointer

Hi,
I have a OTG/MHL adapter which has 2 USB ports and 1 HDMI port along with other SD/MMC etc. The phone is displaying fine on TV.
However I have a broken screen/digitizer. This is the reason for creating the thread.
When I connect my wired mouse into any of the USB ports, it displays Mouse connected (connected to HDMI through to TV) but there is no pointer and no movement. RED LED is lit under Mouse to show power is drawn.
I have a LG G3 phone but unfortunately trying to connect to it doesn't work however I have another USB OTG Cable but it's only 1 connection. Micro USB to USB. IF I connect that to my LG phone along with my wired mouse then I see the pointer and I can control my phone. No issues.
My Broken phone android version is 4.4.x
The mouse is a new mouse but one of the cheap one from eBay. Bottom of the Mouse the Rating is 5V --- 100Ma
The OTG Adapter is another cheap one but it's always worked for me without any issues. However MAYBE, just maybe the reason it doesn't work is because the power input or DC is also 5V. Does that mean the mouse is taking all the power?
What I'm trying to achieve -
Enable WIFI so then I can remote control the device etc. I use the Broken phone for KODI.
Can I use any ADB commands to make it work? I don't have it rooted I don't think but I can start the phone in Recovery mode.
Any advice will help,
Thanks
