Dear Ryno,
Thank you for contacting HTC Technical Support regarding using wireless keyboards and bluetooth controllers with your device.
Ryno, at this time, HTC has no devices that are compatible with wireless keyboards or bluetooth controllers. However, this is a great suggestion. To ensure that your voice is heard, I am forwarding this to our Research and Develpment Department. This is the premiss on which they design new devices and updates.
I apologize if this causes any inconvenience, Ryno. As always, we are here to answer any technical questions or concerns you may have between 6am to 1am EDST,7 days a week for your convenience, or by phone at 1-866-449-8358. Please provide your serial number.

Tomorrow I'll try to get my Motorola bluetooth keyboard to do something with the flyer, even though it may do nothing.

That's cool may try that keyboard. Funny in comments all devices this app did not work with had HTC sense.

Works just fine with my Apple bluetooth keyboard.
Might be more helpful here if you explain your actual problem. I have a HP bluetooth keyboard and a Stowaway bluetooth keyboard and both work fine with the Flyer.
A thread title that in some way relates the topic of the thread would have been more useful.

I want to make sure I understand. In order to use netfkix on the flyer someone has to make a custom installer? I am not finding it in the market I am assuming it is a resolution problem. Thanks.

Yes and no. Supposedly Netflix is trying out their app on each individual device before approving its use on said device. That's why so few devices are supported right now. There are hacked versions which should work on any device and you could try one of those (no idea where you could get them though). There's also the question of whether the app was properly written to adjust to different screen sizes but hopefully that's not an issue.
I tried 2 different hacked versions , both failed

And that could be why Netflix is testing the app one device at a time
Thanks guys appreciate the info.

Official Netflix app gives you audio but no video
Although the official Netflix app works on my Original Driod, all I get on my Flyer is audio. I can search and modify the queue but that's it so far.
Same here.

Just came across this app. Not perfect, yet an amazing streaming app for movies, tv shows, etc. Worth checking out
Old app no longer works. Updates can be found here. Not perfect, allot of links don't work. Most recents do

Since finding the app I have watched 3 movies and 3 episodes of dexter from the most recent serries. I am using the free trail of v player as it appears to support the most formats. Will likely pay the $5 for full version if I do not find a better replacement. Some streams don't work, some are choppy, but all in all the amount of content is amazing.
Maybe there are better options out there that do the same, but for me this has quickly become my favorite must have app
Anyone know what happened to the app for the View in the market? I upgraded to HC, then back to GB and during that time it vanished! Can anyone provide the apk? Thanks

I think they removed it from the market for piracy reasons. It reads its info from icefilms. I love that site between that one and mrbrownee70 I don't need cable TV. Since most of the links are megavideo links you can just use megastream and click the link from the browser on the main site and it will stream the video for you.

I've been using this with several different media players over the past few days. When I launch it, it plays the 1st video with no problem. If the 1st video is interrupted or finishes and I move on to a second, it always says the video file cannot be played. I figured out that if I toggle the wifi off and back on again that it will play the next file on a consistent basis.
Does this make any kind of sense as to why this is necessary?
When it's working properly the app is awesome.
It is a bit tempermental. Part of the issues comes from problems with megaupload

Seems to work well with Rockplayer Lite.

Most links are gone. There is some stuff left but it is diminished greatly. Still nice to have and I am sure over time it will repopulate, but mu being closed down was a gigantic hit. It is also a scary foreshadow of things to come.

I see there are fewer links... but none of them seem to load with the app anymore, so I assume the app was limited to accessing MU only?
not certain and I do nto have my flyer on me at the moment. take a look at mobilevids.org though.

I loved this but gave up on It when I noticed nothing was working. But today I decided to Google why and found this this. While there aren't nearly as many movies/shows/ect like there was when I first discovered the application, I'm pleasantly surprised on the improved functionality and smoothness of how everything plays. Also when loading a link up. It would sometimes take over a minute before it would begin, now its just a few seconds.
Thank you for this.

I have only been able to get video up by opening the streaming link via browser. However, it was too laggy even on a good WiFi connection to make it watchable. Not sure why. I tried it in 2 different browsers with no real luck.
The app is disappointing. Amount of compatible devices is really weak. I emailed them a few times and all they said was "There are too many Android devices and we can't test them all" which is really just a load of bull. Plenty of video apps out there that run on tablets, phones, etc. without issue.
Too bad considering the Flyer is a great size screen for streaming that type of stuff.
hate to say it but the stream works well on my iphone.... yuck. atleast I was able to get a free account
It streams great from my phone ( T-Mobile G2) but I can't place it on my desk comfortably
This sucks, my tablet has better specs than my phone UGH
Please help...been attempting to find answers on the web for about a week now, but no joy. My device is running Gingerbread.ueki8, firmware 2.3.5. Purchased a Samsung HM1200 bluetooth headseat and my Yp-g70 will not find the device. Followed the headset pairing instructions precisely...very simple...ensure led is blue (pairing mode) and press the talk button. I've tried doing this with wifi and gps disabled, among other subtle things, with no luck. Of course, I've been simultaneously telling the device to scan for new bluetooth devices. Is there something programmed in the OS or firmware that's preventing the bluetooth headset from being visible? If so, is there a software/rooting solution? Any help is Greatly appreciated.

Have you made sure the player is visible to other Bluetooth devices? That might be the issue

I haven't had any issues with my other BT devices. The only issue I can think of is that your device doesn't support the same version of BT. I had issues with the BT keyboard then realized it only works for Android3.X+ and iDevices. Check that and make sure it can support Android 2.X.
Thank you so much for the response. The manual "says' it supports bt 3.0, just as the headset manual does. I spent 45 minutes on tech support chat with Samsung for them to end with "the yp-g70 doesn't support a bluetooth headset, only headphones". I think I'm officially going to give up.

i would think that the bluetooth would only not support the mic portion of the headset. but tech support knows best i guess
Hi all,
I want to buy a bluetooth keyboard/mouse combo for my HTC One X+.
Can anyone confirm a make/model that works for this phone (on a standard HTC ROM)?
Thanks in advance
Logitech MX1000 Mouse working on Stock ROM unrooted! I also have the keyboard Logitech MX5000 but i dont have time to test it, will let you know these days!
Thanks, I really need both keyboard and mouse so I would really like to know your feedback. A combo maybe with tracker ball would also be OK.
Thanks again.

That Logitech keyboard doesnt connect, only the mouse.

Hope you'll find what you need in the end.
The Motorola bluetooth + mouse combo works well.
Hi, thanks. Do you have a model or part number for that Motorola combo? Thanks!
I don't have it with me, but I know the kit was designed for the Xoom tablet. You can search for it like that, if you can still find it.

I just tried it again on the One X+ and it's not working now, I don't know why, but it seems that the mouse or keyboard won't work together.
Sorry for the wrong info.

The Motorola Android keyboard works well indeed. I do not use a mouse, so I can't give you any info on that.

As I've said above, the keyboard and the mouse work OK, just separately. You can't use both devices simultaneously because they disconnect each other.
