Anyone else having issues trying to connect their Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse at the time same? Seems like I never had the problem before the 4.4.2 update which kinda sucks. Think KitKat might have broken multiple bluetooth at the same time connectivity...
On the ATT 4.4.2 Galaxy Mega.
I'm interested in using a bluetooth mouse on my galaxy mega, but i can't find it on phisical stores... just online!
The bluetooth mouse is great just can't use the keyboard at the same time. Guess I should can get a keyboard that has a built in track pad.
oh, i didn't know i can't use 2 bluetooth devices at the same time... at this point, as you said, a solution could be a keyboard with built-in trackpad. thanks!
Well it's a bit buggy because I can use my Pebble smart watch and mouse fine just having issues with the mouse and keyboard

Is there any app to use my wifi logitech mouse and keyboard on the phone? I know you can do that with a bluetooth keyboard but is it possible with a wifi one?
There used to be a mouse-cursor mod for android 1.5, but I haven't seen anything about it ever since.
There is however a Wifi keyboard thing available, here.

Can you tell me the brand and model of your Logitech mouse and keyboard?
I don't remember seeing Logitech ever making a keyboard or mouse that runs via 802.11b/g/a/n WiFi.
I do know they have wireless and bluetooth keyboards and mouse.
WiFi does not have HID, Bluetooth does.

this is the model: Logitech Wireless Combo MK260
The Galaxy Player 5.0 appears to have bluetooth HID. I was able to pair and connect with a bluetooth keyboard - got a pin number to enter on the physical keyboard and got instant pairing. The keys work, and the one I have also controls the volume and starts and stops and moves ahead videos and songs. So, the mini keyboard is like a remote control for the device as well!
Can You post a link to the keyboard you bought, I was thing about getting one (mainly for ssh)
Bump, also interested to know which keyboard you used.
Most of the bluetooth keyboards that I see say they are for Iphone, Ipad, Ipod T. Is there any reason that these would not work with the SGP?
SGP 4.0 confirmed working with a PALM brand bluetooth keyboard.
Generally speaking, as long as the Bluetooth keyboard supports HID (as opposed to SPP) it should work. Function buttons may not work as advertised, and CTRL / ALT / SHIFT combinations may be slightly weird, but those issues can be addressed by changing the KEYLAYOUT file. A decent write up is here:
*sigh* I can't post links because I'm new. . . Bear with me here.

Based on this then the keyboards that say they work with Iphone which I have learned is HID should work with the SGP.
Can you post link to buy it and image of it? Thanks
Hey guys,
I just bought an SGP5 and after reading this post, tested my logitech BT Kybd.
It worked like a champ.
This is the kybd I used. I am also able to use the kybd with my SGS2.

The requirements for that keyboard includes Honeycomb and up, I'm just glad it worked on Gingerbread for you.

Cogratulations you invented the laptop.
I used to use Magic-Pro ProMini keyboard with my PC. It turns out that it works fine with galaxy player as well.
Is this a case or just a bluetooth keyboard.
Its good for tablets but not to mini tablet...

Im looking to get a portable mouse and keyboard for my Galaxy Tab 7.7 to carry around with me as travelling companions. Keyboard needs to be compact and portable but with good feedback and all the right buttons. Any particular recommendations?
Hi,
I'd be interested in anyone's experiences with this as well. Anyone?
Note: my tab is not rooted or modded in anyway.
Here are the bluetooth devices i tried.
(Mouse)
Logitech v470 bluetooth mouse for netbooks
Apple Magic mouse
(Keyboard)
Apple Wireless Keyboard
Here are the results:
Apple Magic mouse - Does not work at all. (it does pair, and display as a input device.. but no cursor or response will work)
v470 bluetooth mouse - Works very well, shows up as Bluetooth Laser Travel Mouse.
Apple Wireless keyboard - Type on the stock browser lag, and it cause my attached v470 to lag as well! .. right now i do not know it is a keyboard issue or the bluetooth on the tab that cause this.
So i guess i might go get a logitech bluetooth keyboard for tablet to try it out
Thanks electro.
To add and answer my own question.
I am typing this on a Microsoft "Wireless Entertainment Keyboard 7000", which includes a touchpad. Both elements work a treat.
Is there a way to get a bluetooth keyboard/mouse to connect to the Tab without using the dongle? I~ ask because the tab would be a great replacement for my media PC under the TV if only I could attache the HDMI and get bluetooth to work with HIDs at the same time... As it is HDMI requires a pass-through in the power lead so there is no way to attach the bluetooth dongle. It is more than a little annoying that my £100 cheapo tab has seperate USB and HDMI connection and can do just this!

Aha! Found a way to do it! Just connect your bluetooth HID devices without using the dongle... It's obvious really when you think about it.
Anyway, I managed to do this with the above keyboard/mouse using an app on the Market which allows you to do just that - Bluetooth Keyboard Easyconnect. You tab needs to be rooted and the instructions are not necessarily clear. If you do try it, to connect you need to go back to the standard bluetooth interface, make you HID discoverable (push the button?) and then scan for bluetooth devices. Once it is found and you pair you then need to go back to the app and select the HID in there as well.
So now I have a nice extremely small media pc (but not) under the TV. Films, music, internet, work all there and controlled from my sofa.
If you want a really portable bluetooth keyboard and touchpad combo, check out

They have newer versions of what I have, (RT-MWK02), but mine works really well. Very easy to pair up. Compact and light.
Typing does take a little bit getting use to but once you do, it works out great.
Haven't have any issues. Touch pad is real nice.
I've picked it up on Amazon.
This is something I always look for in my phones, maybe im one of few . I can say that HID profiles are supported and have tested with a portable bluetooth keyboard which works perfectly- no connection issues dropouts or weird quirks. I also tested out my bluetooth mouse which also paired without a problem, however its use was not ideal (but thats ok). There was no mouse cursor so it was awkward trying to select or click. The mouse was more like and external bluetooth finger if that that makes sense. The mouse like the finger and the table like the screen. I guess functionality of bluetooth mice wasn't really a large concern if at all. But id say good enough especially for the keyboard
Stock 2.3.4
I have been able to use a Bluetooth mouse on ics, and it does show a cursier. Now all I need is a mhl adapter and I'm going to start using this thing as my desktop

**just want to clarify i don't know or think this is the streaming issue with bluetooth/wifi.. i am just trying to keep 2 devices connected.
not sure if this is a known issue or i just have to sh*tty bluetooth devices that don't work well together
i have a "rocksoul" mouse and keyboard. when i have the keyboard alone it works great.. can navigate with the arrow keys and use alt tab.
when i hook them both up together. either the keyboard is ultra laggy or it just drops connection every 30 seconds.
is this a known issue? or should i try better devices?
also would getting a keyboard with a trackpad be a better option.. so it is one input?
