Yes, you can(according to what I've seen) . I saw my friend using 2-3 items at the same time and I think it's possible for more.

I have successfully paired my ps3 bluetooth headset and wireless keypad to my view running honeycomb (gingerbread with the headset) and they both work flawlessly.
The wireless keypad has a touch mode which enables the keypad to double as a mouse.
It takes some time to get used to using the keypad for full navigation but it's a nice option to have along with bluetooth keyboards.
It's a nice alternative to the $50+ bt keyboards and so much more smaller. Give it a try sometime if any of you have access to these items.
Interesting. Did both work wih Gingerbread?
What did you do to get them paired? I guess there is a special USB cable to hook them to the tablet for pairing?
Are you rooted? Have you modified the build.prop? Is your mic on the headset working or is it just media. I tried to connect my motorola finiti and all I got was media.

I only tried the headset on gingerbread, not the keypad. Pairing is the same for any bt accessory; put the accessory in pairing mode, turn on bluetooth on the tablet then enter the passcode when instructed.

Yes I am rooted. On gingerbread I modified the bt profiles number and set service.brcm.bt.ag_supported to 1. After that I rebooted and made some calls with the headset and the mic worked flawlessly. On honeycomb the bt profiles number is already correct for the same devices so all you need to do is set ag_supported and pair the accessories.
Can u post a picture of the pad or a link to where we cab buy it

Both work great on honeycomb. On gingerbread I only tested the headset, not the keypad.
I just got one over the weekend, ill try it on the GB view, the pads were on sale for $25 at BB.
So the pad u r using its like a key board and trackball? In other words u can control the tablet completely from the pad ?

Just about. The only downside is you have to switch between touchmode/trackball mode and typing, you can't do both at the same time. It isn't hard though to switch between the two as it has it's own dedicated button to go between the modes.
I haven't tested it with games but honestly that's the only time I prefer to actually touch the screen. Other than that, it's nice to be able to let my tablet sit on my night stand and just control it with the keypad.
And at less than $30 (average) you can't beat the portability factor.
All I can say is between the keypad and the headset I don't always have to be near the tablet to touch it for simple tasks.

Do you actually have the headset paired to Hands-Free or just Media Audio?
I used the headset to make phone calls on my view tablet.

You are able to use the mic on the BT headset to make calls on Honeycomb? How?
Skype, grooveip. On the headset you also have to press the phone button.

What I mean is that the HFP profile is disabled in Honeycomb. Even if the build.prop is edited it will show, but devices won't actually connect to it. I'm wondering how you got around that issue.
I'm wondering the same exact thing. Can someone shed light on this. My headset won't actually connect either and it's driving me nuts because the build.prop method seemed like a sure fix. Someone please help!
The build prop is not a fix. LEEDroid is working ona a fix, but no solution yet. Check his thread / ROM
I am only interested in the keypad.
Will the PS3 one work on an unrooted/stock evo view?
I've read a few threads where People are playing their music and sounds thru Bluetooth. I've tired changing the output in the stock music app, but it doesn't stick, the sound still comes out of the phone speakers. I don't see anything Under settings. Am i missing something?

Are you already paired with the BT device?
What ROM are you running, there is a known bug in the currant ICS releases.

I'm paired, calls work fine. I'm running GB, clean rom 1.6.5 sp1. I haven't tried an ICS ROM yet.

I remember having selected output at some point when I was getting it going. Now it selects it on its own. So when I connect in the car and it's paired it automatically plays the music through the car stereo, when it's not paire it plays through the phone speakers. Of course, I do have to select BT for my music input in the car. Could it be as simple as having overlooked that option on the paired device?
Pairing for phone and pairing for audio are two separate things. Make sure you are paired for audio.

Yeah... that's it. I had to also connect the phone as a portable music player for the car in addition to pairing it.
I'm using btmono by bedoig from the marketplace. I use the free version and it works great on infellibis 1.1.

What are you trying to push music too? Whatever it is, it must support A2DP.
I have a Sony BT head in my truck and stream Pandora from my phone to it. I also have a set of BT stereo over the ear headphones. Both devices boost the Rez's music stream...fantastic audio quality.
Check out "btmono" on the market....it might work for you.

No luck with the energy rom and kern... But the Rom is nice ... I Think ill keep my BT keyboard and pray that someone enables L2CAP's in an ICS Rom... The keyboard I'm attempting to pair with my phone is called the rii mini touch 330... It's pretty cool it has a built in touch pad... I wanted to be able to use it to text and as a portable controller for my emulators (gensoid, nesoid, n64) when I attempted to pair it tells me that the L2CAP is disabled on my phone.. :banghead:

Is it possible to connect a normal USB keyboard, non-wireless, non-bluetooth, just a normal keyboard with the s3?
Would be handy for typing longer emails etc.
Yes, it's possible. You just need a OTG cable.

Is it also possible to use both keyboard and mouse? I can use either with Otg cable but a usb multi plug stops either from working. Is it my cheap multi usb adaptor I wonder?

From the looks of this video it should be possible to connect multiple devices.
I just tried my powered USB hub. My keyboard, mouse, flash drive, printer and my gamepad were all recognized at the same time and worked perfectly.

So it looks like a powered multi usb hub is the only way.

I have a keyboard with a built-in usb port. I can plug my wireless mouse dongle in there and attach the keyboard to my phone without issues. But I guess the technology behind this is a small usb hub as you mentioned already so it's not exactly a new way of solving this.

I wonder what the smallest most portable mouse keyboard combo is?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Logitech has some nice keyboards and mice. If you buy the ones with the orange "Unify" logo, you can use a single Nano Receiver through OTG to use the keyboard and mouse afaik.
However you'll have to pair them on a Windows/Mac computer first.
Depending on how much you like software-hacking, here's a protocol description which probably could allow you to build your own Pairing app for Android

Hello everybody,
is there any app that allows you to "turn" a wired headset to a bluetooth one via android?
You might think to connect an android smartphone to a normal wired headset (such as those supplied with most phones) and to exploit its bluetooth connection to use it on pc/consoles/...
Do you think that it is possible?

Wait...what?
Do you mean making your wired headset available for input from Bluetooth devices?
I don't know if that's possible o.0

Yes i mean that... There's an app called "Bluputdroid" that allows you to use your smartphone as input keyboard on ps3 via bluetooth. Why what I say couldn`t be possible?
Because usually wired headphones work only if they are attacched with the wire and no bluetooth sistem is built in them... if you want to make your wired headphones,earphones, keyboard whatever they must have a bluetooth sistem built in them to make sure that the device you are connecting them to can recognise the bluetooth headphones or any other bluetooth connected device

No your phone can be connected to your pc only with some programs... your phone's hardware can be used only with your phone ( as long as i know)
