Mac Wireless Keyboard on SIII? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As the title says, will it work? or does anybody had a mac wireless keyboard and tried it?
I'm planning to buy a Bluetooth keyboard for my PC, I just want to know if it will work on my SIII to make the keyboard dual purpose. TIA

anyone?

It does work however some shortcuts/key mapping won't function as expected.

Did you mean the F-keys? Fine by me if only that "shortcuts" won't work. Have you tested it and did work?

I'm currently have one for my S3, Nexus 7 and iPad. Yes, only F shortcuts doesn't work. Also I am still trying to figuring out how the tab key works in Android.

Device to device sharing

I was wondering if it would be possible to connect 2or more android devices together to each other using USB otg. I have tried stick mount and it does not work. Any other applications? Or just not possible?

What about Bluetooth?

You can do that using wifi hot spot functionality..
we all should be polite enough to press thanks for anyone who helped US.
I agree with wifi solution and there should be application for this, e.g. "Anypush" to share picture, music and files.
I know about blue tooth and WiFi but what I was wondering was device wired directly to another

Samsung Keyboard Question

Has the Samsung Keyboard on the Note II been upgraded with slide texting. I recently saw a demo video and it appeared to have it.
If so, would someone please post the APK. I would greatly appreciate it. Thanx in advanced.

It's available on older firmwares but it's disabled by default. You can enable it in the keyboard settings.

I see a setting that says "keyboard sweeping" but it doesn't seem to activate anything. When I slide my finger across the keyboard as if I'm Swype texting, nothing happens.

It's called continuous input

[Q] Any suggestions for pairing PS3 controller with DNA?

I just purchased the wired version of wired version of the GameKlip to use with my HTC Droid DNA. It's not rooted, but their site said the PS3 controller works through an otg cable, which is included with the gameklip. Unfortunately I haven't been able to get it to work. I've seen conflicting reports with some people saying it works for them, orther say it doesn't.
When i connect the controller to my phone via the cable, my phone gives me a notification that says, "Unable to charge device. Please use the supported charger." On the controller, all 4 "player indicator" lights blink as if it's charging. Supposedly a white cursor box should show up and I should be able to manipulate it with the left analog stick. This does not happen.
Has anyone gotten it to work or have any suggestions for getting it to work?
-Thanks
I have a HTC DNA and just got the GameKlip also. Im having the same problem. Anyone know a solution?
Nope hoping for a custom Rom that supports sixaxis I love my phone but not being able to connect my ps3 controler is such a downer.

So you can't use sixaxis app with stock rooted rom?? Was just about to root for that reason only, but if it doesn't work, I'll wait.

Good luck the Bluetooth stack on DNA lacks a lot of support.
I have slowly been trying to figure what I need to port in order for it to work but no clear answer yet
Cyanogenmod would work if and only if who ever makes it for are rom has to use blues and a proprierty stack instead of HTC.
Its all in the kernel ask one of the kernel maker's to add this in as it would allow proper sixaxis support and Bluetooth headset too.
If it was only a Bluetooth problem, you'd think it would still work with a hardwire connection like it does on nearly every other Android. Xbox controllers would work too.

He said he paired it so I assume it was over bluetooth. CM uses its own bluetooth implementation(I think) so try it out. CM brought life into this phone, HTC made it a joke honestly.
I have the gameklip with the included otg cable
must be on flyhalfs cm 10.1 Rom
Steps I took
Bring up the sixaxis app
plug in the cables and hit pair
Once that's done unplug the cable
You only have to pair it once
Hit start then the ps button on the controller
Change ime to sixaxis
Done
I have some touch emulation profiles I made for.some games like modern combat 4 and nova 3
Nova 3 would force close on the first level
Modern combat works fine
I switched back to nos m7 Rom tho until.camera.and battery life get fined tuned on cm 10.1

PAC uses CM as the tree so whatever works in CM will work in PAC.
I have tested it on pac and it definitely works.

I have found Pattern lock, GPS on off and data on off sometimes doesnt work, it fires from tasker because when you look at the exit/entry task its sitting there stuck and you have to hit stop
That will be tasker not properly set up. Why not try change the context to test if the secure settings functions work well? Tasker on my galaxy tab had the same problem. GPS works fine on my phone.
