[Q] Microsoft USB Wireless Keyboard freezing tablet, but Logitech works? - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Whenever I plug in my 2.4 Ghz wireless USB adapter for my Microsoft Wireless Desktop 800 with this USB adapter from eBay, my tablet pops up two notifications of "USB device connected" then disappears. On the third, it freezes and can only be fixed with a hard reset (hold power button for 7 seconds).
I don't have any issues with plugging in a wireless adapter for a wired USB Microsoft mouse, wired USB DELL keyboard, and a wireless USB adapter for the Logitech MK250.
I'm using Overcome 2.1.1 and Pershoot 2.6.36.4 on the P7500.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Bump. Any ideas would be appreciated

Have you tried to see if this occurs on kang build? Overcome is great, but it's been AGES since their last update.

Thanks Misledz. Is there a non-ICS version of KANG? There still seem to be a few glitches:
Not working:
- Camera
- WiFi Direct
Bugs:
- For auto-brightness to work, lock/unlock the screen once.
- Searching for network providers doesn't work.
- Charging+freezing issues.

Huh Wifi detect works great? It works fine for me even under hotspots.
They fixed all that in the recent builds, its at #28 now with 90% of them etched out, the camera mod may be back soon, then again, who uses the tablet for its camera?

i use the front facing camera for skype calls, which is really useful. you say there is a mod for the camera to work?

OH then again Skype being the main reason, I assumed it was for something else like wildlife photography or something of the sort. Overcome has yet to come with something, but if this bother's you, have you tried out other ROMs then?
This assuming you would like to keep your camera and adhoc intact

[Q] Anyone experiencing HDMI Bluetooth lag?

I've posted in other threads about lag i've been experiencing (here, here and here).
As soon as i enable HDMI out the bluetooth keyboard and mouse start lagging and stuttering very badly. This happens with mirror mode (NON-Mod) or Webtop via Nebtop (Root App) or Fenny's mod(replacement APKs). I've run the fastboot on my phone to bring it back to non root stock and i've updated to the 748 VZW OTA update but i still get this issue even just using mirror mode.
Could someone else test this with their RAZR? I'd like to know if it's something defective with my device or with all RAZRs.
The reproduction steps are simple:
1. Pair a bluetooth HID Mouse or Keyboard
2. Connect the input device
3. Connect HDMI
4. Choose output mode (Webtop via hack or Mirror mode with no hacks required)
5. Try to type a text or move the mouse pointer around
I've tried this with different Monitors and televisions and also with different bluetooth mice and keyboards. I haven't found a combination which works smoothly yet. I also posted this issue in the Motorola owners forum. Not too much response there quite yet.
Thanks for the help if anyone can provide it!
I have just ordered my mini HDMI cable. It should be in on weekend so i will keep you posted on my results.
Got my dock station today and will be getting a Bluetooth keyboard in a couple days. I will report back as well.
UPDATE _ Been using the dock station with a Microsoft Bluetooth keyboard and a really cheap USB wireless mouse. The keyboard has no lag at all but the mouse lags a bit depending on what app is running or which dock mode I'm using. I've found that certain games and apps run with less lag in Web top mode and some work better on HDMI mirror mode. I messed with the mouse settings in Web top mode to make it more responsive but it still takes some getting used to. I don't think it's unuseable, but I can see noticeable lag that you have to compensate for.

Same issue on occasion
I have had this happen a few times. I am not sure what is causing it. I will reply back if I have anything further to add.
I don't have a bluetooth mouse or keyboard, but I have noticed a similar delay when playing games via HDMI using a sixaxis or wii controller.
Works fine for me.
Tested with stock UK razr rooted. Nebtop app and apple wireless keyboard and magic mouse. Although mouse behaves weird unless you set up the click rate and sensitivity.
same applies to mirror mode.
I guess its your keyboard/mouse that is causing trouble. Try different set of gear or change batteries.
Hope it helps
That's weird, i tried someone else's logitech bluetooth mouse and got the same issue. It was a mouse only, no keyboard or headphones this time and still had the issues.
I have the same problem. just purchased a dell bluetooth mouse and the apple bluetooth keyboard. they work great in the phone. But once in webtop mode, there is lag. I am using a quality HDMI cable, but use a rocketfish HDMI to DVI converter to the monitor. wondering if that is the issue.?

No sound on multimedia dock with CM9

I have been running AOKP for some time now, and everything has been working great, except for the occasional freezes. I have now installed the latest nightly CM9 build, but I don't get any sound through my multimedia dock. It plays through the built in speakers. Anyone have the same issue, or maybe a solution?
I have the same problem. The sound comes out from the built-in speaker.
same issue... was running SGT7 AOKP P1 build 40. Now running CM9 nightly build 20120713... sound only comes out of built in speakers no matter what i do.
I've tried enabling HDMI dock (which both OS's seem to recognize physically docked/undocked).
Tried enabling USB Audio setting (with both OS's seem to IGNORE physically docked/undocked).
I came from Overcome where everything worked perfectly. The frustration is that I'm using a MM dock. Sound neither comes through the HDMI interface, nor the 3.5mm. This setup is mounted in my dash so now I have to make the decision of ICS/no sound in my car or Gingerbread...

select pass through usb audio in dock settings, then dock it. if its already docked, force a undock, take tab out, select audio passthrough, then dock it.

I have this issue on the 7in tab still despite running CM9 official. Any one know if there is any more progress, as the above suggestions don't work for me? The tab doesn't recognise the dock being plugged in even though it recognises USB to the computer etc.
Here's hoping...

[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).

[Q] [SGP311] problem with wifi and bluetooth working at the same time

I'm listening to internet radio over bluetooth (instead of the inbuilt speakers), have a Microsoft Wedge Bluetooth keyboard connected and am writing this at the same time.
2 Bluetooth devices at the same time plus Wifi, all working.
(Wifi channel is 9. SGP311.)

@hasenbein1966 Could you do a internet Speedtest with and without bluetooth connected, what firmware are you running, and how many wifi networks are on your channel?
My Internet is fast (30000kbps download) I am geting that speed on my tablet z. As soon as I connect my bluetooth keyboard (acctully it is the Microsoft Wedge as well) it drops to ~300kbps. So something happens to my wlan on the Tablet Z. As I am living in a Flat I do not have a channel for my self. I am sharing that channel with 2 other Wifi Networks.
If someone knows what to change on the Tablet Z please tell my, I bougth it just for working with keyboard/mouse!
Mine is SGP312 (32GB, Wifi only), firmware is 10.1.C.0.370, device is rooted, bootloader is locked

just tried playing around with my channels...
the good news is i think i may have actually upped my speeds by changing to a different channel!
the bad news is i drop from around 3.5MB/sec with just wifi on, to under 0.03MB/sec with Bluetooth turned on and a bluetooth keyboard connected... and then it didn't even finish the speed test, it just stopped and said there was a connection error.
this is awful.
Did someone already test whether changing the WiFi to a 5 GHz channel (Bluetooth works in the 2.4 GHz band where also normally the WiFi operates) helps?
(Can't test it myself because my router doesn't support 5 GHz.)
Hi All,
This seems to be pretty common (saw someone complaining in the Transformer forums). I've noticed the same issue myself. I'm using wireless BT headphones, and the Wifi throughput drops precipitously when I'm streaming music to them. I've got a dual-band router, so I'll set up the tablet to connect to 5Ghz and let y'all know what happens.
Thanks,
John Francis
I have now measured speeds with a speedtest app.
When I only have connected my Harman Kardon Bluetooth audio receiver, the WiFi works perfectly normal and has same throughput as without Bluetooth on.
When I connect my BT keyboard, Wifi speed becomes very low (below 1 Mbit).
So, not BT in general is the culprit - it depends on the kind of device!
OK, with the tablet on 5GHz I get ~55 Mbps. On 2.4 GHz, ~21Mbps. These are Harman Kardon BT headphones.
Regards,
John Francis

@jfrancis999 these rates look both ok. There shoul be no problems. Are these with audio streaming to the Headphones? If you have a Bluetooth keyboard, mouse or gamepad (playstation 3 controller) could you maybe test with one of these connected an 5GHz?
@all if we make a list of all working and not working devices we can maybe find what they have in common an what is the problem.
Not Woking:
Microsoft Wedge Mobile Keyboard, BT Profile HID, BT Version and Class unkown
Playstation 3 dualshock3 controller, BT Profile HID, BT Version and Class unkown
Whit these devices connected Wifi speed drops to under 1Mbit/s
Does any one have a BT Keyboard and while it is connected to the tablet z Wifi speed does not drop under 1Mbit/s?
@someone having good understanding of android and bluetooth: is there a way, I can force the tablet to reduce trassmitting power to class 2 or 3? I want to test if that makes any difference but I do not know how.
It's really strange, since a simple keyboard should need much less bandwidth than transmitting audio over BT, so one would expect the Wifi drop with the audio device, not with the keyboard...
I just have a Motorola Keyboard & Mouse combo pack... I'm not seeing any model number on it, but it's definitely Motorola. Totally kills wifi speed when either one or both are connected. So you can add that to the list.
Hi All,
With the tablet connected to 5GHz I get the following speeds:
* Playstation 3 controller disconnected: 58Mbps down/30Mbps up
* Playstation 3 controller connected: 42Mbps down/12Mbps up
With the tablet connected to 2.4GHz I get the following speeds:
* Playstation 3 controller disconnected: 4Mbps down/30Mbps up (not sure what's up with the download speed)
* Playstation 3 controller connected: 103Kbps down/52Kbps up (OUCH!)
Regards,
John Francis
@jfrancis999 Thanks for your tests!
I will be in my office on Monday. There I will try a 5GHz wifi as well. If that works well, we have at least a workaround. Still, I hope there is a fix for this problem, but untill then we could bypass that problem.
I will post the results here on monday.
I am still looking for someone who can tell me, how to reduce the transmission power of bluetooth on android!?
after a week, sony support finally wrote me back. they said it sounds like a software problem and i should use the PC Companion software to do a software repair. anyone else tried this yet? also if i do this, is there any way to backup EVERYTHING, including my widget setup, icon placement, folders, settings... all of it...
Bah, they simply have no clue.
Like the dudes on the official Sony support forum, this support guy just gave some random halfway "fitting sounding" answer, like a Windows support guy who says: "Restart Windows"...
I wouldn`t use this "PC Companion" crap, honestly.

Logitech Unifying receiver lag

I was using my wireless Logitech desktop set but I noticed some lag after not using it for some seconds. When I keep using the mouse or keyboard there is no problem and everything works fine. But when I stop typing or stop mousing for longer than three seconds, the tablet doesn't recognize any input anymore. When I move the mouse or use the keyboard, nothing happens, but after two seconds any input is recognized again.
So I have to keep typing or else I have to wait some seconds to let the tablet recognize any input. This is unworkable.
I tested it with two desktop sets with two different Unifying receivers. When I use a corded mouse or keyboard, everything's fine. It seems to me that there is some sort of logitech standby mode which the tablet can't handle or something.
What can I do abaout this?
Added logcat of connecting usb, a freeze moment, and the disconnection. But I see nothing wrong there...
http://pastebin.com/fisK3hQ0
I bought an other Logitech Wireless mouse (standard receiver, no Unify) and that one works perfectly. So it looks like it has something to do with Unify, not wireless in particular.
Anyone?!

And no solutions yet. Maybe a different kernel will work, but I like to keep my N9 stock (the first months hehehe)
Any solution?
Has there been any solution to this issue yet? I too am having the same problem.
Work Around
I have a work around that seems to fix this issue. For this to work you will need to be root. Also note that this solution will cause all USB devices to remain on at all times and will not survive a reboot. My experience is mostly with linux and very little with android. I expect someone should be able to modify the following script fairly easily for a more permanent solution.
Open your favorite terminal emulator and type the following four commands pressing enter after each:
su
for i in /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/power/control;
do echo on > $i;
done
This script toggles the power control setting for all usb devices from the auto state to always on. Hope this helps!
I have a slight lag with my logitech controller through USB OTG. It's just a split second lag, but it's there right from when you plug it in. Makes it unusable for gaming. No issues whatsoever with my Logitech bluetooth keyboard however.
