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?

Are you switching on the swiftkey (or alternative) keyboard under settings --> Language & keyboard? Then, when you get ready to type in any field (you'll still see the default keyboard), do a long press with your finger until you see a pop up that says Input method. Select input method and then you get another pop up that allows you to select the keyboard of your choice. Select your alternative keyboard and it will then appear for you.
I was using TNT lite 2.2 - I just plugged in the usb transceiver and it worked. I had it from a splurge earlier and used it with presentations - if the dongle were smaller it would be very useful.
1: if i used a usb hub and had a bluetooth keyboard (assuming i need an adapter that would come with it) and a bluetooth mouse (adapter again) Would they both work?
Im currently got my prime hooked up to my HDTV and i use the TV settings to do splite screen so i can play wii/xbox/ps3 at the same time. but i dont want to have to get get up just to type
2: depending on the answer to question 1. How do i get the onscreen keyboard to come up when the keyboard dock is plugged in. i know it doesnt make sense but as i explain in question 1 it's plugged into my TV so getting up type is looooooong

1: The tf201 has bluetooth built in, so shouldn't need a bluetooth adapter to use a bluetooth mouse and keyboard.
2: To pull up the onscreen keyboard with the keyboard dock... When typing in a text field, a little keyboard icon will show left of the clock in the notifications bar... Click this, and a settings popup will appear. At the top of the popup, it'll say "Use physical keyboard", click it to off and the onscreen keyboard will show whenever you select a text field.

The instructions on your particular bluetooth keyboard and mouse should include the pairing instructions. To get to the bluetooth settings on your prime, it's under wireless in settings. Turn on your prime's bluetooth and follow the directions for pairing given by your keyboard and mouse manuals.

Hello everybody,
I have an Iconia A500, running with Jelly Bean / rooted, Cyanogenmod 4.1.2 from Randomblame.
So far so good. As most of you know, this device supports bluetooth mice and USB mice. I am using both kinds of mice quite often for working in office tools or for the good old ScummVM games.
Now to my question. Every mouse I use only has the left click function. Right click does the same as left click. Is there a possibility to configure the right button? In Office I would like to get the "long press" instead, in the ScummVM Games I would like to get the "default action", wich is highlighted on touch.
I dont mind if I can configure directly in Android or if I have to use an app. I would be glad for any idea which could help.
Thank you!
I don't think you can get right click of the mouse on the phone, because if you connect the mouse your clicks (any button) simply translates into "touches". As "left" and "right" is not something about "touching" the screen. I tested this on Nexus 7 (where you just plug mouse and get black mouse cursor visible on the screen) -- no one app didn't react on "right click" or "mouse over" (no a button to highlight). You can click and drag - that is ok and no problems. You can mimic any touch action, but i didn't notice event implementation for mouse specific staff.

Hey,
thank You already. For my Iconia it's the same. Just plug in the USB Adapter or connect the Bluetooth device and it's running with this black arrow. But theoretically it should be possible to get different actions by different buttons. The mice are sending the signals for right and left button (Windows PC detects it). Only Android is just configured to understand them all as "left" (In previous Android Versions the right button often was configured to "back").
What I need is something, which defines my right button as long press or something else - similar to the Logitech Setpoint software for PC (There you also can set shortcuts, Keyboard Combinations or whatever for nearly every button). I am sure, I am not the first one thinking about this, so isn't there any app/driver/trick to get this working?
I guess i can't give you concrete answer or tip here.
I am only wonder if they had support for all mouse stuff in previous Androids, why they decided to remove it from 4.1
...
technically I think it is possible that right click work under some kernels the version before last of es explorer used to work with right click like in windows but now does not... I have a XOOM runnig team eos 3 stable release
Plenty of Remote Desktop software can "decode" right click so obviously right click and left click are registered differently from android but as android lacks "right-click functionality" (it) replaces both as a left click (touch) trigger. The trick would be to replace "long touch" for right click.
To those who have bought (for example) a Note 12.2 tablet for samsung, plugging in a mouse and using "Hancomm office" would turn the tablet into an ideal laptop. After all it's big enough and now that the software is pouring in I see no reason why should Google (or at least a ... hack) won't give us proper right click. Long click is tedious for any serious consideration...
In Android every app has a menu, some devices like the Galaxy S3/4 have a hardware menu button, hitting right button could emulate the hardware menu button (it does have a specific key code, it can be opened from keyboard), or it could be used as a back like on old versions of Android (makes sense, you "enter" with left and "go back" with right), or it could easily emulate a "reasonably long" click (2.1 secs) or any keypress. The only thing that does not have *ANY* sense is making it equal to the left button like on recent Android. That's already there, no value added. If only someone could make an App to configure that choice...
Samsung Roms
I was using Samsung Roms before where when the bt mouse was connected the right button was acutaly define with "Back" and the middle mouse or mouse wheel was getting me "home".
However when I swiched to CM 12.1 the feature was not there, but as you describe left and right mouse are doing the same and mouse wheel is activating the search menu.
I haven't found any settings for that.
But I would be interested in any input on that regard.
Cheers

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.

Wow Guys this method of using the tablet looks way more fun

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$

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:
Hi to everyone:
First of all sorry for my spelling, i'm from Argentina and my english isn't the best.
I have a kii pro tv-box, and i also use my old atrix as a tvbox.
Most of the android apps aren't made for TV so the navigation is optimized to touch-screens
In the 2 cases, i can't use the swipe function with me IR Remotes. My 2 remotes have a mouse function but you cannot move and press at the same time.
The only solution is to have a mouse connected and drag with the button pressed.
But, i think is too much to have a mouse and a IR controller connected just for achieve one gesture.
So, anyone knows if is there an app or script or some way to map the swipe gestures (up,down,left right) to some IR buttons
Thanks in advance
Regards
No clue about an app but a simple wireless keyboar with touchpad only costs a few bucks.
You can also use a normal keyboard and mouse, wired or wireless.

Thanks for your answer!
I know about that possibilites. But i use it my bedroom so i thinkthat's a lot of artifacts for a bed.
Also, my tv-box comes with an IR remote with an internal IR receiver, so putting another thing is like just disable that accessory because i cannot use it in any other thing
So, resuming, i know about the keyboard with a touchpad alternative, i just want to know if there is a possiblity to use just the IR remote for that gesture
