TnT Lite with usb keyboard - G Tablet Accessories

I'm going to buy a Gtab and i'll install the Tnt Lite, but i wanna know if i can use a usb or bluetooth keyboard with it.

I have had ZERO success getting a bluetooth keyboard to work. It won't pair. Keeps asking me for a security code when there is none.

and an usb one?

No problems. Works ok on TnTLite as well as VeganTab; now a USB mouse is a different story depending on the ROM you are using.

My USB keyboard works fine on TNTLite 2.2 (rather old version now). Haven't tried a Bluetooth keyboard with it.

I've had no problems plugging in a USB keyboard
BUT I have had no success using TNT Lite and bluetooth.

bluetooth headset?

Hi,
I've been running vegan 5.1b happily for sometime (and 3.0 etc before). Everything works, except for bluetooth headset connection: GTab keeps saying that it pairs with my device but it's not connected. I searched the forum but I couldn't find any solution; any suggestion?
Thanks!

I use one all the time with Beta5.1. Will your headset connect with other stuff?
mine will show as "paired" but that does not mean its connected at that moment.
Flick on your wifi settings go under blue tooth, click the head phones and MAKE it connect.
let us know if that works.

I have two BT phones and a BT headset (samsung WEP460). The headset does connect to the phones so at least the headset works.

My Gtab with vegan 5.1b does pair with all three BT devices but it won't connect. I long-pressed the headset icon on the Gtab to bring up the options; I clicked both "connect" and "audio devices" but it does not do anything.
I was on TnT Lite 2.2 before switching over to vegan (3.* and now 5.1b), and back then I was able to use BT to transfer files between my phones and GTab. Did something happended in between? (I did not try BT in vegan 3.*)
Thanks!

Anybody got the Bluetooth working with vegan 5.1?
I am having same issue. I think it might stem from not being able to enter the pair code into GTablet? The direction for my headset say i must type in 0001 on my phone after pairing. GTablet does not seem to have any way to do this.
Any Ideas?
For what it's worth, I haven't had any issues using my Rocketfish BT headphones with Vegan 5.1.
I use a Sonorix BT adaptor with regular sound isolation ear buds on vegan 5.1. It works great!
Pair then go into tablet bt settings under wireless.
Then.....
Pandora or Rhapsody while surfing or kindle reading.
I'm having the same issue with 5.1.1. Can't connect my motorola headset or my wiimote. They pair, but nothing will stay connected. Manually forcing a connect through the menu doesn't seem to do anything.
Likewise, I've got a Motorola H17 that connects fine with my Razr and N1 but woun't connect with my Vegan 5.1.1 with Clemsyn v8. Pairs correctly but no connection.

Replying to own post.
Just found Clemsyn's v9. Same thing. Still no connection.
It seems to be an issue with the tablet using VEGAn 5xx because I have that problem too yet no one had a solution so far, or at least no one posted a solution.
I have a Jawbone and my computer and both are paired but not connected. I did connect the Jawbone to my phone so the problem is not with the Jawbone but with the tablet.
Same issue here. I have tried quite a few different bluetooth devices with the same outcome. Can pair (or so it says) but unable to connect. No options found to force it.
Vegan 5.1 here also no bluetooth. Getting "Paired but not connected"
Anyone have a work around for this? Would love to ditch my USB cable to transfer files

You can transfer files wirelessly using an app called file expert. It creates a web site or ftp site with your wifi connection. It is not a fix but at least a work around.

Same here, I have a plantronics bluetooth headset that is "connected" but no sound, and make the tablet no sound also, have to reboot to get sound work again.

bluetooth keyboard

I have been searching through some of the bluetooth keyboard threads and am unsure of what keyboard to get. Does any bluetooth keyboard work on the gtab? I wanted to purchase one like this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/bluetooth-wirel...Trackballs&hash=item33642e7988#ht_2141wt_1185
I have a similar one like this from Dealextreme working on tnt lite, but you have to use the mod for alt keyboards and bluetooth apk from Techsoft to get it to work.

I was able to get my Menotek flexible to work on Vegan b5.1 using Blueinput from the market. It just show as a Bluetooth Keyboard when connected. The item on eBay will probably work.

I am trying to get my Menotek Keyboard working with no luck. It pairs, and I can even here "clicking" and see the caps lock on/off, but am getting no actual input. Can you tell me what you did?
Got it!
So I finally did get it to work, and it seems ok. Follow the full steps, including moving the APK to the system/app directory.

[Q]Support for BT mouse

When I try to connect my bluetooth mouse to the Xperia S it says "Paired but not connected".
Is there another way to do this or I am doing anything wrong?
I am using stock XX.73 Firmware.

Tried.. the same ... I could use same mouse with Galaxy Nexus so maybe ICS only support this
Hi calibx
I had the same with connecting bluetooth keyboard saying pair but not connected. However, i can pair and used the keyboard with my Mac Pro bluetooth. Seems like something wrong with the xperia s bluetooth software. Hope Sony can get it fix with a cumulative update.
Same .73 Firmware.
Just bought an OTG USB cable. My Logitech USB Receiver (unity) works without any problem !
It seems Sony include usb mouse support in the Xperia S but not BT mouse.
RF keyboard mouse had no issue as the Sony boutique did just that. The only problem is BT which cannot seems to work. Even there is a youtube showing problem with BT headset. Otherwise, i will connect a wired keyboard instead.
Do you know wich rom support bluetooth mouse for the htc amaze ?

Sony don't developed a driver to make easily the use of BT HID devices, so many users give up and uses OTG, so then buy a pricey dock for Sony victory... but here you find a nice alternative.

[Q] HID Bluetooth keyboard on Cyanogenmod 10

Hello,
I have an HTC Inspire 4g running Mustaavalkosta's unofficial Cyanogenmod 10.1 ROM. Everything works great, except my Microsoft Bluetooth Mobile Keyboard 5000, which is an HID Bluetooth keyboard (no SPP). I get a proper PIN exchange and it pairs with my phone successfully, but I can't actually type anything with the keyboard, and it does not appear in the Languages and Input section of the Settings app. The keyboard itself is good because I can use it with my laptop and an iPad.
I've tried apps like BlueInput, MyBlueCon, and Bluetooth keyboard easyconnect, but all fail to make a connection with my keyboard. In the case of BlueInput, I get a message that "this Android does not support Bluetooth HID."
Any other workarounds I could try? Or am I missing something really, really obvious?
(I have a feeling this is a ROM problem and I should be posting in its development thread, but I do not have the permissions.)
I just installed Cyanogenmod 7 stable, and the keyboard does work with this ROM. So does Cyanogenmod 10 just not have HID Bluetooth support? That would be a shame...

Bump! Running CM 10.1 (the TeamCanjica mod) on a Galaxy Ace 2. Phone can seemingly pair with the HID devices which worked in stock rom, but no luck in connecting to them. It just says connecting and never gets connected.
This rom, in contrast to the stock rom, is really fast, stable and nice. But the possible abscence of BT HID is a bummer. Is it often an intended omission from the CM development team and if so does anyone know why? Does anyone know of possible workarounds? On an older device with Android 2.x, I think I installed some third-party app which worked rather nice.

I have used a Logitec dinovo mini for years on Android without using the dongle, but now under Android 8 Oreo, it seems to connect asking for pin and registers, but it does not do anything, and the connect light on the device goes on blinking. If I connect via USB C- OTG - dongle, it works fine, but that is useless as I need the USB C port for HDMI to TV to display the fantastic Linux like desktop (Huawei Mate 10 Pro).

Working Devices

Belkin F3U047 10/100 Ethernet Adapter working - working (Had to boot into recovery and then reboot before it works. If I unplug Nexus Player and reboot, it stops working until I boot into recovery and reboot again)
Nyko Playpad Pro - Working in G Play games that I have from store etc.. but not so great in some emulators yet (still working on it)
diNova Mini Bluetooth keyboard - Cannot get it connected
Logitech K400 Bluetooth Keyboard - No connection also
I'll update as I try additional devices

Did they make a bluetooth version? I have two K400 keyboards and they are both Logitech Unifying connections; I am using one with the Nexus Player via the USB dongle and it works fine.

xBIGREDDx - My bad. Yes, it is a wireless Unifying keyboard (NOT bluetooth). Nonetheless, mine did not work. I know the dongle is fine as it's recognized by windows, so I'll try again tonight.

Oh! I missed where you said yours had worked. That's awesome to hear. I'll give it a shot myself when mine comes in. Did you have to do anything special?
Nope. Just pulled the receiver out of my PC and connected it to the Player with an OTG adapter. Works through an OTG hub as well.

My dumbass.... Had wrong dongle.
Found correct one and K400 works.
Sweet! I'm going to use the K700, which came with the Logitech Revue (Google TV). We kept using and were really happy with the Revue, to honest. But it died about a week for the NP went on sale. Timing was perfect, but we balked when it first went on sale, and then it was taken off the market for a few days. I bought a Unifying adapter, and configured the K700 on my PC, and it works great. I also tested it on my Oneplus One over OTG, and it's fantastic. Love that the home and back keys work, and the touchpad.
I've tested a Rii RT-MWK02 Mini Wireless Keyboard and it seems to work fine via Bluetooth - http://www.amazon.com/Rii-RT-MWK02-Wireless-Keyboard-Pointer/dp/B00BVZZG0C
I haven't done extensive testing but it does work.

Microsoft Sculpt Comfort Bluetooth Mouse --- Working Kind of
Found that once it was connected if I activated voice search and then jumped out to the home screen while it was still connected, it would keep the mouse connected... otherwise I would just receive the same error.

paired the keyboard and it works nicely. installed xmbc through google browser using this keyboard and built in mouse...
K700 Keyboard
K700 Logitech keyboard, that came with the Revue works. I got a cheap Unifying dongle for it, configured/pair them on my PC. And plugged it to a hub via OTG, and it works pretty great. Things like the volume/mute and some Function buttons don't work. But for typing and the D-pad and touchpad/mouse works great.
Installed ES Filemanager, and it can read a USB Flash Drive, and sideload apps from it.
I'm really happy with this so far.
