I have been reading this forum for a few weeks before and after I bought my G-Tab. (Owned about 3 weeks now.) I have purchased a case with USB keyboard. I am disabled and have trouble with small keys, hence the keyboard. A mouse would help also. Could someone recommend where to get the correct USB Hub & mouse that will work so I can use the keyboard & mouse?
PS. I read everyone of your great comments. It really helps us newbies!!
THANKS,
Carol
i hope someone corrects me if I'm wrong but i do not believe the any kernels have mouse capabilities right now. I have been off the forums for a few weeks but i assume nothing has changed. Sorry... wish i had better news.

Forgive me if this subject has been covered, I've not been able to find much on this and I'm fairly new to all this having just aquired a Hermes recently.
One of the things I did hope to do with this (amongst many other things of course) is to use this device as a remote control. I have a number of devices that would become unusable if their remotes were to die and so creating a dbase of all those obscure remotes has been worthwhile using my ipaq to date.
Currently I've tested a couple of pieces of software which work but it appears that the infra red signal is pretty weak, particularly when comparing it to my iPaq 2210 running Nevo. It's far too weak to really be of that much use.
Anyway before I give up on this path I thought I'd try to find out if anyone else has found this to be as weak as I have and more to the point, would a radio or ROM upgrade help or is this down to the hardware that HTC used for the irDA?
It is in general that most PDA's have a 'weak' IrDA submitter. HP is really an exception. I also missed this powerful Irda when I switched one day ... !
A ROM upgrade won't change this.
You might be better off by buying a UNIVERSAL REMOTE CONTROL for your devices. Even your HERMES might be happy and last a bit longer.

Ok thanks for the information. I was kind of expecting this to be the case. I might have to hang on to the HP, it works a treat. It's a shame though.
I'll concentrate on finding out about the rest of the stuff I need to resolve like the gps problems as Tomtom is one of the priorities.

Those devices are the devils work I tell you!.
Hey guys!
I don't know if that's the right section to post this question, but yeah.
I got an iPad 2 because of someone's success, so it's kinda emotional - long story short, I can't sell it, so I want to use it in an efficient way.
- the question: is there an app that turns my phone (a Galaxy S II) into a touchpad/mouse that doesn't require software on the client's side - or is there any app that pairs my phone with my iPad in this way?
Thanks!
Well there's a few different ones you can try. Hope that at least points you in the right direction
BlueputDroid
Gmote 2.0
PRemoteDroid
RemoteDroid
Padroid
PADroid isn't available anymore, all of the others require software which can't be installed on the iPad.
But thanks anyway!
Well sorry . But I'm sure if you keep searching with Google you'll come up with something.

I wanted to reply to this post but can't because I haven't made ten posts.
I've been reading up a bit on the BT thing, and was wondering how reasonable it would be to look into replacing the wireless module.
Even though these modules are made for OEM designs they can be bought from places like mouser. I don't think I would be able to get the datasheet from RFM since they ask to request it, and let you sign a NDA with lots of questions.
Has anybody been looking into this option seriously? I don't really know a lot about the software part of this operation, but wouldn't mind looking into the HW part.
As sidenotes:
* has anybody used the UART port used initially for hacking the device for other purposes such as controlling external hardware, or is this out of the question?
* Any chance the NT would get USB host connection somehow? Is this something that is currently being looked into or just not feasable?
regards
Hi,
* @AdamOutler has been the one using UART as far as i know, so if you have questions about it you should PM him (he's the man)
* I think devs are trying to first get Bluetooth working before USB host, i know in the nook color is possible and im sure they have it in their to-do list but will take sometime. one step at the time. If you want to know about the bluetooth issue they are having then check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1554956 and here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1553040

Hi Veronica,
The post I refer to is in one of the threads that you link to.
The chip/module in the NT is the WL1270, which (according to the manufacturer), just isn't capable of BT. The WL1271 has that capability, hence the question about desoldering the module in the NT and swapping it with it's sister that has BT capability...
Or I really should have missed something...
I have a TP on the way. I travel regularly for work and not always accommodated in places that have tvs (tv signals yes, actual tvs no), and was wondering if anyone has successfully got a usb DVB-T tuner to work on the Prime? (i will most likly be rooting it within a few days of receiving it, so that does not worry me ) I have had a look on these forums and have found no definitive answer.
Any help much appreciated, and i am willing to help any way i can
Bump. Does anyone know if it has been done?
That would be soooo nice! ;-))
i also will be happy to have it
Ive just ordered a smart dock for my S3 so that I can use it with my TV, wireless air mouse, hard drive and wireless xbox controller.
Now the final thing I want to do is run XBMC for PVR software, but cannot find a definitive answer about a tuner that will work with my S3.
Im a new user so I cant link to the one I have but its ebay item number 200828623654. Its made for an android powered smart box but will it work with the s3 aswell.
Or does anyone know of any that will work.
Cheers
Rich
Have I done something wrong in my post or is it just that nobody knows the answer?
All I can find through loads of google searches are a couple of expensive tuners that only work with their own inbuilt mini aerials and others that will connect to an outdoor aerial via a coax cable but they are made for specific android smart tv boxes.
Thanks in advance for any help that anyone can provide.

Reasons .
Might be better in Accessories .
This is not a f*** fix my phone forum its a developers forum .
As its rather a restricted topic you may need to wait until someone with an answer appears .

Im happy if a mod thinks its appropriate to be moved to accessories.
I am aware it is a developers forum and I was at no point demanding anyone "f***g fix my phone". The use of TV tuners with the Galaxy S3 would be a development of the phone as it is not something that it was initially designed to do and would allow people to make better use of their devices.
I was just making sure that I had not done anything wrong in the way I had posted my question and to make it clear that I had searched around for an answer already for a couple of days myself as I know people get annoyed when noobs post questions without bothering to look for themselves.
Thanks
Rich
