I thought i'd try out my bluetooth mouse with my flyer this morning ....
... There is NO cursor it just moves through the menus when I move the mouse... and since my mouse is 300dpi if i move it an inch it will scroll through 300 items... making a mouse with the flyer completly pointless!
Has anyone else had this issue or have a fix to actually get a cursor working on the screen?
Thanks
Kris
Hi all,
I don't think this is posted elsewhere but my apologies if I'm double posting.
I've got a cheap Speedlink bluetooth mouse from eBay and it works fine with a PC; it pairs up nicely with my Desire HD (running RCMix3d Runny v1.3 ROM) too.
Oddly however, the icon in the 'bluetooth settings' page is not of a mouse, it's an icon of a keyboard.
Pair it up and there's no mouse pointer; move the mouse to the right and the homescreen moves to the next screen - left and you go to the left screen.
Seems my mouse is recognised as a keyboard, oddly enough only emulating the arrow keys. When running Cyanogen 7, it was recognised as a mouse - so what's different here?
Is there anyway of jimmying Android to recognise my mouse as a mouse and not a keyboard?
Problem solved?
Problem solved?
I have some too ^(
I want to find out if anybody have any fix for this:
I have the full HDMI dock (with 3 full size USB ports) and I use it a lot... it’s very convenient, here’s my setup;
I’m using a KVM cable to switch between my RAZR and my pc using the same keyboard and mouse.
I just update to ICS from GB, before the update the mouse settings was perfect, while the phone is on the dock the right button of the mouse was set to “return or go back a screen”; the left button was for “make any selection” and the scroll button would activate a “menu” on any screen.
After the update (GB to ICS) the scroll button does not work and the right and left buttons is set to “selection”.
So I just want to find out if there’s a “settings” for the mouse or if any developer car modify this settings.
Thanks a lot
This won't help you at all with your question, but my keyboard and mouse worked exactly the same after the update.
My problem is that i no longer has the Firefox that came on the hd station.
Do you still have the hd station's Firefox available after your ics update?

I'm sorry that I can't help either. If you dont' mind, please explain the setup in noob speak and I will try it. I have the HD Station, so what else would I need to make this work?
So i wanted to share with you what mouse and keyboard i am using to make easier find working moude and keyboard. Mouse i am using is Microsoft sculpt touch and keyboard is samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 keyboard dock. I jope this helped you to find mouse and keyboard.
I use a Rii RT-UMK-100-BT bluetooth keyboard with built in touchpad. Like a mini version of a Logitech K400. My case is an Otterbox, so it has a built in stand. This setup works great for portable use and is like a mini laptop! I have a GT2 7
PS - a logitech k400 will not connect to our tablets without using a usb otg adapter and the dongle that comes with the keyboard. Hoping to save someone a headache of finding out the hard way like i did.

Have you had any issues typing and having the on screen keyboard pop up? I have tried several roms and stock and even with null keyboard or other equivalents installed, whenever I'm typing eventually the on-screen keyboard pops up taking over the whole screen.
Wish there was a way around this as I would like to use this more instead of my laptop. (I have a bluetooth keyboard)
I need a mouse and a keyboard for my GT2 7.0"
I don't like the crappy-small keyboars because I can't use it for my work.
Are there something that can work 100% with the bluetooth? Because the battery drain really fast with usb OTG and i prefer to charge the tablet during this operations.
Budget: 15/20€ or 20/25$

Null input method or external keyboard helper in play store
You need to choose it after downloaded, and i'm sure they works because i'm using right now

1. Samsung ful size, no numeric, bt keyboard (with dedicated android keys)
2. Apple bt keyboard
3. Original tab 1 (7 and 10) dedicated dock-like keyboards (same - with android keys)
with tab 2 7.0?

I'm using the apple BT keyboard. Pairs right up and works well.
FYI, the Apple BT keyboard model I'm using is the model A1314. It pairs with the OEM Samsung 4.1.2 OS, and CyanogenMod 10.2 nightly (I'm currently using 10-2-20131108-NIGHTLY-p5110)
To get the Apple BT keyboard to pair, I had to remove the batteries for a moment, re-install them, power on the keyboard and scan for new devices on the tablet. It paired within a few seconds of scanning.

I currently and using CyanogenMod 10.2, and find I only need to press the down button (left of the home button on the bottom) to remove the on-screen keyboard, then I can type with the whole screen visible in mail or firefox or 2X (an RDP client I use).
Chrome and the built-in browser also will allow the on-screen keyboard to be removed. BUT you must hit the TAB key to get BT keyboard input to work after pressing the down button on the bottom of the screen to remove the on-screen keyboard.
Desktop Theme
I found this WIndows 7 desktop layout best suited for mouse and keyboard use. :good:
For a while now, I've been using ShareKM
to control my phone from my PC when it's docked next to my monitor.
Basically the PC mouse cursor moves off the screen onto the Android screen, just like when you have dual monitors. It shows a mouse cursor on your device and also lets you use your PC keyboard to type on Android.
This seems to have stopped working on Android 4.3 as I can still see the cursor, but mouse clicks don't work. So I'm looking for an alternative. Does anyone know of any that work well?
Thanks :good:
